In OTHER DAYS AND NOW.
Increasing Crowds at Presidential In
augurals and Why.

Those of us who have witnessed
naugurations every four years since
1877 have been struck with the large
increase in the size of crowds" re-
marked P. B. Cousins, of Baltimore
''I think it is safe to say that the
crowd at Cleveland's first Inaugural
ton was SO per cent. larger than that
at Hayes and that the crowd at Nc
Kinley's was double that of 1871 The
great increase is accounted for in a
measure by the changed attitude of
the South. When Hayes was inaugu-
the past. The South was naturally
still full of bitterness and few men
living south of the Potomac came to
Washington to see Republican Pres

reasonably could to placate the

Republican North was beginning te

THIS is RIGHT.
Resolutions Offered by Daughters OF
the COnfederacy of New Bern, n. C.

the COnfederacy OF New Bern, n. Z.
Whereas the awarding of the prize
offered in the Columbia University
by the Daughters of the Confederacy
to an essay entitled Robert E. Lee
A Present Estimate" has caused ad-
verse criticism of Drs. Alderman and
Smith, two of the judges in the con-
test, and also of the essay itself,
therefore be it
Resolved, l, That we, the New Bern
Chapter of the United Daughters of
the Confederacy, wish to go on record
in regard to this matter in a manner
characterized by intelligence, fairness,
courteous consideration of the views
of another and dispassionate weighing
of facts-that we sincerely desire to
| initiate the example of our noble chief
tain, Robert E Lee, and as he did to
| ''stand as the champion of reason
rather than passion, of fairness rather
than prejudice, of progress rather
| than futile obstruction"
2. That in view of our high regard
not only for the scholarship of Drs
Alderman and Smith, but for their
unimpeachable loyalty to the South
and it's cause, and furthermore in
view of the printed explanations OF
their decision that we heartily endorse
their action as judges in this contest.
g. That while here and there in Miss
lBoyson's essay there are misleading
general statements, yet in the main We
think this young woman is to be high
lily commended for her evident open
minded study of the subject, for tht
fact that there are so few of the old
time sectional opinions, for her won
derfu1 insight into and appreciation o
both the Southern cause and tn,
South's chieftain as man and soldier
and lastly for her remarkable nationa
: viewpoint.
4. That these resolutions be sprea'
upon our minutes, published in tn
daily papers and copies sent to Mis-
Boyson, Drs. Alderman and Smith.

CONSERVATION REPORTS.
Roosevelt Sends Declaration of Princi-
pies to Congress.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 26.-The
declaration of principles" adopted by
the North American Conservation
Conference, which has just concluded
its work here in which certain recon-
mendations are made for the conser-
vation of the natural resources of the
United States, of Canada, and of Mex
leo, were today transmitted by Presi-
dent Roosevelt to Congress.
After pointing out that the confer
ence not only performed with marked
efficiency and entire unanimity the
important duties which devolved up
on it, the President in his letter of
transmission declared that ct has
suggested a still wider field of useful
action" The President then refers
ence for an international conference
on conservation and says that, acting
upon this suggestion, he has addressed
such an invitation to the nations OF
the world Gin confident belief that
such a meeting will foster the inter-

of none, and will confirm and
strengthen in us all the belief that
the good Of each is likewise the COM
mon good of a11.''
The establishment Of permanent
conservation commission in each OF
the three countries, perhaps, is one
of the most important recommends
tions of the conference.

Goldsboro has a population close

The score of women under the
leadership of Miss Genevieve Walker
who are working for the "Fete du
Printemps" to be given April 2S at the
st. Francis will surprise the local set
with the latest fad from London in
color effect. The color is not TO he a
matter Of decoration. as one might
suppose. but far prettier and more
effective and a hundred times more
personal. The innovation is TO be in
the gowns of these charity workers
The dress for each maid and matron
who hes a legitimate connection with
the fete is TO be white lace or en-
broidery in lingerie effect and with
the gown each society votary who is
devoting the day TO charity work will
wear a large black picture hat trimmed
with one gorgeous red rose. This is
the latest costume worn in England
at the exclusive charity bazaars and
none Of the visitors can fail TO recoe-
nize in this uniform the captain and
the corps OF society workers who have
dedicated the hours of afternoon and
evening TO the cause of charity.
