Apologize to Standard Oil Com
pany.

The following which is taken from
the Norfolk Ledger Dispatch of Feb.
Bird, under the heading of New York
news explains itself:
Council for the Standard Oil Com
pany which recently began damage
suits for $250,000 against Hamp-
toms Magazine as publisher and for
500 900 against Cleveland Moffett
the writer of an alleged defamatory
statement concerning the Standard
Oil Company, today received written
retractions from the publisher and
the writer
The article in question said the
Standard Oil Company manufactured
and sold impure materials which
went into the candies and that when
the various dealers were arrested
and fined the Standard Oil Company
paid the fines.
Upon investigation" writes Mr..
Moffett in a letter given out today,
Il have ascertained that your Com
pany was in no way connected with
the transactions referred to, and
hasten to retract in the fullest man
ner all charges made against your
Company and to express my sincere
regret that | should have fallen into
this serious error"
An other letter from Benjamin B
Hampton, President of the Broad
way Magazine Company, Incorpora-
ted, publishers of Hampton's, ex-
presses regret that the apparently
erroneous statements had been made
and agrees to publish a full retrac-
tion in the next number of the maga-
zine.

SERVED HIM RIGHT.

POulsOn is superintendent of the
Nebraska Anti-SalOon League. The
Sioux City Tribune tells US about
him. "As all such superintendents.
he seems to be a letter writer also. "
He indited q letter to a member of
the Legislature from Omaha, Gross
man by name. md intimated that
CHEESEMAN'S official course was die
tated by brewers. When he came
into the lobby of the Legislature in
the interest of so-called prohibition
GrOssman saw him and called him a
''liar." eur" and a "contpmptible
pup" Then GrOssman mashed his
fac" i" and rubbed his nose with the
offensive letter. There was no "soft
answer" about that. - Richmond
Times-Dispatch.
Hurrah for GrOssman. may his
tribe increase, There are entirely too
many fellows going about the coun-
try making charges against their
betters of being "bought up or con-
trolled by the "interests"-and all OF
them are not Anti-Saloon Leaguers,
either. 1t is one thing to charge a
thing and quite another to prove it.

Building and Loan.


Charlotte Observer.
The Carthage Blade is not satisfied
with the condition Of the market Tor
residence property in it's town There
are plenty OF folks in Carthage VINO
want to build homes, but depioraoiy
few who are in a financial position 70
do so. and this applies particularly
to the younger men upon whose
shoulders must rest the larger bur
den of any progress which may be
made. Moore is a rich and increasing
lv prosperous county, and its capital
must have home -Owners-preferahly
Young ones-if it is to keep abreast.
The Blade has come to the OPINION
that a necessary prerequisite to this
condition is the organization and
aggressive pushing Of a building and
loan association. and its logic is
sound. Largely bv reason OF the
local building and loan activity,
homes are actually easier to obtain
in Charlotte than in Carthage. in
spite OF the tremendous adverse dill
ference in the value OF real estate.
The promoters of such an Organiza-
tion in Carthage would require nice
business Judgment, good ability and
tireless effort, but the benefit TO the
town would be hard to Overestimate.
Continued spread OF local building
and loan associations throughout
the smaller communities in this State
Is ardently to be desired. Their man.
agement must be in the hands OF
wide-awake aud yet conservative di-
rectors, or their operations will be
attended with undesirable conse-
quences. The crash Of one such or
ganization puts stumbling-blocks In
the way OF all the rest and fingers
for a long time in the peoples mem
Ory. A notable instance might be
found in the failure of a Richmond,
Va, concern-not local association,
however-which had attained con-
siderable proportions and which. al
though occurring something like fiji
teen years ago. 10 still talked OF in
every section of that State. With
between 5000 and 5000 local as
sOciations reported from the United
States. however. it is evident that
there is a splendid opportunity for
them if wisely administered.a and their
rapid increase throughout North
CaTolina-which last year reported
9S-will be watched with close at

WHAT IT REQUIRES.

We enter the new year with high
hopes and aspirations for more work

Henderson GOLD LEAF.
There is a whole lot packed in the
above short statement. The GOLD
LEAF cannot make Henderson. nei-
ther can The Free Press make Kin
eton. without the active cooperation
OF the responsible citizens OF the
towns respectively. With that CO.
operation. both moral and in a
strictly business way. a great deal
can be accomplished. Indeed, no
community can prosper where the
press does not receive this active CO.
operation and support; nor can there
be success where the press OF the COM
munity does not support the COM
munity's interests.
OF course, no newspaper in its ef-
forts for community advancement
will receive the support OF all OF any
community. There will always be
some that have to be pulled along or
carried by their stronger brethren.
Every community has it's knockers
and "statesmen" who are always
destructive but never really construc-
tive. No newspaper can expect to
secure from such citizens any active
support and encouragement that
may be expected to rebound to the
public good.
Such citizens do not really count
and lack of cooperation on their
part Is not such a serious evil. But
the situation is serious indeed when
the responsible elements OF a COM
munity and it's local newspapers are
not cooperating in every proper way
for mutual advancement.
And it is we'll for the citizens OF
KinstOn to remember the GOLD
LEAFS intimatiOn to- it's readers that
the success OF "hOpes and aspira-
tiOus for more work and better work
along all lines" ""depend upon Others"
as we'll as upon the newspaper it
self Neither party can do very much
of itself without the active cO-Opnra-
tion of the Others.-kinstOn Free
Press.
This is little belated "Owing to
circumstances over which we had no
CONTROL" but it is good nevertheless,
and we are using it at the first op-
portunity.
Henderson needs more OF the spirit
OF co-operation-the community in
terest-than it has. No town can
ever achieve the highest results as
long as every map is "for himself
and the devil take the hindmost."

One strong point in favor OF the

SAN FRANCISCO WINS.

We are not pleased little bit that
San Francisco won over New Orleans
as the place for holding the Panama
Canal Exposition in 1915. If the
real truth were known we doubt
not the transcOntinental railroads
would be found heavy contributors
to the funds and other means which
brought about the selection OF the
Western city. Then politics figured
in the matter also.
Commenting on the matter the
kinston Free Press says:
SO San Francisco has won out in
her efforts to land the big Panama
canal celebration. New Orleans, "the
logical point, went down in defeat,
but not before. in our opinion, she
had established a superior claim for
the honor. But be that as it may, it
seems that the administration saw
more in it for Republicans should
they warm up to the Western rather
than to the Southern city.
The Panama canal will, if present
plans do not fail, be opened in 1915.
and every Indication is that it will be
a big success. When one thinks OF
such canals the mind naturally runs
TO the history of the great Suez canal
for comparison. A report Just is
sued shows that for the year ending
June last, 1, 239 ships passed through
the big waterway The toll receipts
amounted to over $24.1OO,OOO. or
nearly % per cent on 800, 100000.
the cost OF construction. The Suez
canal is 81 feet deep, and work is
continually being done on it with the
view of making it 500 feet wide and
4O teet deep, so as to give easy pass
age to the largest of vessels. The
charges on the SueE canal are two
dollars ton of 2,240 pounds. this
being based on what ships can afford
TO pay because Of the saving in fuel,
provisions, wages, etc. While the
Suez canal is about 100 miles long,
it's cost was only 00,OOO,OOO. The
Panama canal is only about so miles
In length and it's cost will probably
be about $500, 100000. Indications
are, though, that the Panama water
way will do much more business than
It's old world sister has. And the
returns from the enterprise ought to
be satisfactory to Uncle Sam; and
the whole world will have come to
rejoice at the outcome.
