TOMORROW Is
EMORIAL DAY.

The foregoing poem, written by Ad-
miral Lucien Young, one of Pensa-
cola's best loved and most highly es-
teemed citizens, expresses the real
sentiment of Decoration Day." the
sentiment which should ring true in
the hearts of every man and wo-
man Of the great, free, unfettered,
broad-minded land of America.
Tomorrow will be Decoration
Day"-and the usual ceremonials will
occur at the National cemetery,
which, as the years go by, do more
to tear down certain unfortunate bar
riers than perhaps any of the other
days around the year.
Let the beautiful sentiment ex-
pressed in the admiraPs poem pre-
vail-no South-no North-but an in.
termingling indistinct and soft with
memories of a day gone by--a soften.
ing and toning of the gray and blue
Of sixty-one, into the mist and haze
of yesterday-a yesterday which has
served to link the great pulsating
North and the sweet, romantic South
land into one great and glorious
country, against which naught may
hope nor attempt to prevail-the
new, new country Of the newborn
North-and4South!

THE CAPITAL TO CAPITAL ROUTE
An Invitation to Pass by the Health
Resort and Growing Town OF
Fuuuay Springs.

To the Editor: Believing that such
a route as the one proposed will be
of great benefit to our people. as we'll
as those who are enough to
own automobiles, I think we should
all cooperate to max it a success
I, therefore, take the liberty Of suS-
costing that after the route passes
Raleigh to the South it should pass
the thriving little town Of Fuquay,
one Of the most progressive rural dis
trlcts in Wake county. l take
this public method of call
ing the matter to those who nave it
in their power to influence the selec-
ton of the route, because / take it
that it is desirable to have the route
pass through points Of interest.
Fuquay lays claims both to natural
beauty and to the possession of a
water, the fame Of which is asst
spreading beyond the confines of our
own county. What spot could be
more fit for the tired ~raveler to stop
and rest a few hour, and enjoy the
water and the shade as the spring
has already become a resort? Hotel
facilities would render the stop sill
more pleasant. [ hope to see the
route dotted with such places of rest.
Perhaps in the course Of time the ia
nous inns of by-gone days Will be
brought back to add their pleasures
10 what m to be q faNOrlte
method of travel in the future. I dc
hope our entire people will becom SO
much interested in this matter rs to
offer every inducement possible to
AVE this out located through our
section, and we do most respectfully
ask those having the route in charge,
to consider the advantages of resting
on such a journey, and receiving such
pleasures and benefits as We might be
able TO offer them.

ribbons on their dark hair, added a

Speaker Cannon was half an hour
late in reaching the White House and
had to go through h line long after
the other members Of Congress had

most cordial reception from the Presi-
dent. SO did Clifford Pinchot, gov

Knox and Secretary of War Dickinson
were not present, both being absent
from the city. Four trumpeters Of
the marine band sounded four flour
ishes as the President and Mrs. Taft
came to take their places in the Blue
room promptly at II o'clock Mrs:
Taft looked a trifle pale in a gown or
white silk. She was most gracious IN
her greetings as long as she remained
in the li"p.

The News and Observer Of Raleigh,

circulation is wide and its popularity is
is a thing of which to be proud It goes
onward and upward and embraces
such al extended field from which to
rather the news of the day that
scarcely an item of significant news
escapes its W%atchful eye. The year
1909 has witnessed the growth Of the
circulation of the only morning daily
at the capital Of North Carolina to q
point that shows its great popularity.
At the beginning Of the year the cir
culatiOn OF the paper was in the
n~eighborhood Of eleven thousand;
during the year the Increase in daily
circulation is more than -four thou
sand, so that the News and Observer
now prints Over fifteen thousand
papers daily. R~aleigh,s white popu-
latiOn does not exceed over fifteen
thousand, 50 that it prints as many.
papers every day as there are white
men, WOnlen and children in the town
in which it is printed. 1t is doubt
full whether any other paper in the
world, printed in a town Of that
]ation has such a large circulation.
