To-day exactly at noon at the resi-
dence of the brides mother, Mrs. III. M.
Dewey, in this city, were married Mr..
B. G. Thompson and Miss Hattie
Dewey.
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. E. H. Davis of st. Paul Methodist
Episcopal Church of this city, of which
church both bride and groom are prom
inent members.
The bride was dressed in white and
carried brides roses. Miss Mary Bor-
den, the maid of honor and only attend
ant, was also in white and carried pink
roses. The room was beautifully deco
rated in ferns and bride roses, and a
beautiful floral altar covered with white
flowers and hung with evergreens lent
additional religious fervor to the scene.
Invitations, verbally, were issued only
to very "a relatives of the bride and
groom and a few of their most intimate
friends. The family connection being
large, the spacious parlors were filled
with those who had come to witness the
ceremony.
AS the bride and groom came into the
room and stood before the floral altar,
in The presence Of the man of God who
spoke the solemn words, creating the
God-given relation Of man and wife,
from the hearts of those present looking
upon the beautiful and sacred scene

of those who had just plight
their faith one to the other.
Mr.. b. q. Thompson is a member of
firm of Best e Thompson of this
and is one of the most successful
business men the community has ever
had, and at the same time is one of our
esteemed citizens.
The bride is loved by all classes of
our people. Shells not only one of the
intelligent women in the state, but

been for the good Of others, and no

MIR. EMERSON SSPEECH.

The ARGUS publishes elsewhere in
this issue the speech delivered by Mr..
T. NJ. Emerson, president of the Allan
tic Coast Line Railroad Company, at
the recent annual banquet of the Cham
Der of Commerce of Wilmington, N. G.
1t has the virtue of brevity and forces
conviction as to the speakers views,
that he is not only sincere and honest,
but correct, and we wish that every
voter in North Carolina might have a
COPY of that speech, for it breathes
patriotism and business; it counsels
wisely, and states conditions and con-
sequences with terse and convincing
honesty that should give pause and
cause reaction ere the crisis falls.
Soon after the adjournment of the
General Assembly the ARGUS reviewed
editorially not only some Of its drastic
legislation but also the evident trend,
manifested therein, of purely politicians
to subordinate party to personal ambl-
tons, and discussing this alarming
phase of the situation we said then just
what Mr.. Emerson says with more force
in his Wilmington speech, that lit is
necessary for the conservative element
of this country an element that is the
real foundation of its greatness, to
pause and consider in all its phases the
present situation, and to apply the pro-
per remedy"
And-mark the prediction-if the
party in power will; not apply the
remedy the people will for the people
the intelligent, patriotic, progressive
American peoples can always be trusted
to do the right when they come to see
the right.

We GO FORWARD.

The Board of Trustee of the Colds
boro Public Schools, has decided to
erect a high school building and locate
it in another part of Goldsboro, as
nearly central as possible, having due
regard for the nature and cost of the
lot.
1t was very apparent to the Board
that more room is absolutely necessary
and that it is not advisable to build on
the present lot. 1t was also apparent
that the number of students at present,
1924, is too many to be congrepated
together. 1t was the opinion of the
Board that to separate the high school
from the elementary school would
make it a much stronger institution.
At present there are 23S students. It is
the purpose of the Board to unite with
the county and make the high school a
county institute. open free to all the
students and to provide special train
ing for all teachers of the county, so
there should be no need of employing
any second grade teachers.
It is the purpose to plan a building
that will cost eventually about $15, 900,
to contain an auditorium. library,
laboratory, domestic science, gymna-
SUM and society hall, in addition to
make the high school work harder and
stronger and provide a course of in
struction especially for teachers.

ABE RUFF, DEFENDANT.

The trial of Abe Ruetf, the San Fran
cisco boss, goes to show that publlc
sentiment, when once fully aroused,
will in any city deal with q big rich
rascal unfinchingly. There is indeed
a question whether Ruetf is not being
dealt with too vigorously. He is de-
nied bail, and he is kept in durance
vile by an eIisor who is unfriendly.
He has but small opportunity to
bring his machine to bear, n he will
have to go to trial on the square merits
of his case before a jury that he can not
pack. The danger in San Francisco
appears to be that he Will be tried with
undue severity and with perhaps pre-
conceived opinions of guilt in the
minds Of the jurors.
Public sentiment has been aroused,
and there is not perhaps an honest man
in San Francisco who has not already
pronounced Rueff guilty of grating. A
popular vote would consign him to
prison, but still he is entitled to a fair
trial, and the court should take precious
good care to give him one in the face
of an honest public sentiment. Too
much public sentiment is sometimes
as much to be feared as too little. The
general public is, in fact, inclined to be
either too lax or too fierce, and the hap
py medium is not often developed and
maintained in our American cities.

Davis Centennial.

R1chmont Times Dispatch.
Elsewhere we publish a communica-
ton from Colonel w. o. Shelton, OF
Richmond, in which he calls attention
to the fact that the centennial anniver-
sary of the birth of President Jefferson
Davis will fall on June 3, 1908, and
suggests thatit be properly observed and
celebrated throughout the South. 1t is
a timely and a patriotic suggestion land
we hope that it will be the subject of a
resolution by the United Confederate
Veterans at their forthcoming reunion
in this city.
Few of our great men nave been so
grossly misrepresented, SO maliciously
maligned or so cruely misunderstood
as Jefferson Davis, President of the
Southern Confederacy. not merely by
men of the North, but by some men o
he South. Had the Southern Confed-
eracy triumphed, the case would have
been different-in the South, at least;
but as it failed, Mr.. Davis had to bear
the brunt of the blame, and he became
the target for the darts ofevery carping
critic in both sections. Some of our
own children have had their minds
poisoned against him, and the time for
his v~indication has come. Let the facts
of history come out. That is all that
his friends and admirers ask. They
are not afraid of the facts, if only the
whole story be told.
