Too much can not be done TO honor
the memory OF the gallant men VINO
did heroic service for their Southland
in the days when battles were fought
beneath the Stars and Bars. IN these
DAYS there are many monuments be-
Of men of the grey clad line, this gen
Grafton doing high honor to itself
when 1T honors the men Of the Con-
federacy.
A few days ago a statue erected
in OF Henry L. Wyatt, the
first Confederate to fall in battle was
unveiled in Raleigh, and on
day of the past week there was un-
keiled on the courthouse green IN
Hartford a monument erected TO N
soldiers OF p~erquimans county, this
under the auspices of the Daughters
Of the C~onfederacy, the monument
having been presented by the local
chapter.
The movement for the monument
began about ten years 80 when Hon.
1tODcII D.. 11tiIii, lISh tdilolAolS AcA
Governor. made an address at an en-
thusiastic Confederate rally. The
work has gone forward and now
there stands on the courthouse square
this splendid tribute Of the, Daughters
of the Confederacy to the men who
offered their lives as tokens Of
devotion to the South. The unVeiling
was a notable event in the history OF
Perquimans county, and the address
Of Chief Justice Walter Clark on the
occasion was q glowing tribute to the
Confederate soldier-a tribute which
was deserved.
HEREFORD and PerQuimans county
are to be congratulated that such q
monument stands on the courthouse
green. It stands there as a tribute
from the Daughters Of the Confeder-
acy, and it will prove an object lesson
to all who gaze upon it, showing that
patriotism and love of country are
things which do not pass from the
minds of men, and that service in G
notable cause will always be honored.

READY NOW TO
WORK ON Sewer
Legal Preliminaries Out of Way
on the Laterals-Usual Crist
of Business Cared for

The third reading of an ordinance
creating local improvement dis
trict for the laterals of the sewer
system came up at the meeting of
the City Council last Tuesday night.
This ordinance is given in full on
the seventh page of this issue, and
is one that every property owner in
the district should famialiarize him
self with. The active work can
now be commenced, and it is likely
that the council will have the work
rushed, now that the legal prelimi-
naries are out of the way.

check for 81 900, for renewal of
the liquor license granted to Geo.

ment in keeping down the tree pests.
He stated that the council of the
present county seat had taken the
matter up and had purchased one

on the city trees. He begged that
our council take similar action.
Geo. Ireland, a representative of
a hardware concern in Portland,
was present to extoll the merits of a
a certain line of irrigation pipe that
his firm makes. His talk finally
procured him an audience for We'd
nesday morning with the committee
on streets and alleys. The pipe is
for the new underground irrigation
systems, in the Beach and Anon
additions, the districts having been
created lately.
