convention will fall on Mrs Lindsay
Patterson, who after two years OF
activity has succeeded IN
marking the Boone trail through
North Carolina. Mrs. Patterson writes
interestingly of the completion OF
this work in the April issue Of the
d. A. r. magazine and her next eI-
forts will be devoted to seeing that
the delegates from Tennessee. Ken
lucky and Virginia complete the
markings through their States. When
hat is accomplished the story OF this
epochal stage in history will open
for all time.
Delegates With Wilson.
There were 1904 delegates in the
Baltimore convention that nominated
Woodrow Wilson for the Presidency,
and more than half of the
ship Of that memorable body have re
piled to the letter Of inquiry address
ed by Senator Gore. soliciting thelI
| views with reference to the plank 1T
| the platform regarding the Panama
| canal tolls question. Five hundreo
| and four delegates have written to tht
| blind Senator, sustaining the position
Of the President n urging the re
peal of the free tolls provision of tn
Panama Canal act. h number o
delegates who have recorded thei
views in opposition to repeal total
only 90. TWenty-three delegate
wrote non-comn1ittal letters.
Five TO One For Repeal.
The fact that more than half o
the delegates to the Baltimore con
vention have made responses, an
that they stand with the Presiden
in the ratio of more tina five to on
in his position against subsidy,
highly pleasing to those Democrat
who have led the fight for repeal c
the free tolls plank of the platform.

BANKS.
They Have Had Prosperous Year, As
Is Shown in Annual Statements.

G~reenville, n. c.. April 19.-The
Greenville Banking and Trust Com
pany held it's annual meeting Of
stockholders recently and made a
very c~reditable showing. A ten per
cent dividend was paid the stock
holders and a nice sun carried to
the surplus fund. This bank has
been in business thirteen years. nav
ing been organized in 1901, and dur
ing that time has paid its stockhold-
ers 100 per cen in dividends and now
has a surplus of over $4,000.
The National Bank was organized
eight years ago and it's recent stock
holders meeting showed a good year.
A dividend of five per cent was paid
the stockholders and a nice sum
placed to the surplus. In these
eight years it has paid it's stockhold-
ers over one hundred per cent in
dividends and no whas a surplus Of
$4,000.
The paid-in stock of the Greenville
Banking and Trust Company is a little
over $4,000, that of the National
Bank, 100000. The two banks car
~ deposits OF more than a million
and a half dollars.
There are nine other banks in thu
county and each shows a good year
with large deposits and surplus

Friends Will Have to Hurry If G.. w,

This paper some time e publish
ed a letter from a Confederate vet
eran, G.. w. Stancill, of Morehead
City. telling of his great desire to at
tend the Confederate Reunion in
jacksonville, but that he was fnan-
cially unable.
His record is such a notable one Of
service in war and in peace that some
who read his letter have been moved
to help. Mr.. z. f. Ward, of Smith
field, offered to be one of fifty to sub
scribe a dollar additional, and there
have been some responses.
Some $40 is all hat is needed by
Mr.. Stancill, and $17.0O more is nee
essary to make that mount Let
those who will help do so at once,
sending the money direct to G.. w.
Stancill at Morehead City. Here is
what he writes. and it should carry
$500 to him in a hurry:

AFTER RECORDERS COURT
WITHOUT ANY RESERVE.

Fayetteville, April in. A. Sin
clair will not be a candidate for re-
lection to the solicitorship of the ninth
judicial district. This is a certainty.
Solicitor Sinclair made a very positive
declaration to this effect in an inter
view that bristled. The solicitor went
after the recorders court system with
out reserve. He declared that the
recorders court had made a patch
work Of our judicial system and ren-
dered the office of solicitor so far
from lucrative that it was not worth
the time necessary to devote to it.
Since the creation Of recorders
courts in Robson and Cumberland"
said Mr.. Sinclair, the fees in the courts
Of this district will not pay enough
to justify me in giving the time from
my private practice the Solictorship re
Quires. The solicitors income is vir-
tually destroyed by the recorders
what it did before. Under the former
system the solicitors salary was prin-
cipally mad up by fees paid by de-
PENDANTS, very little Of it coming from
the public treasury; and the recorders
court has had no effect except to al
most destroy the solicitors office and
change our judicial system from a uni
form jurisdiction all OYER the State
into a system of patchwork" In
other words" added the solicitor. lit
is an excreScence on a symmetrical"
The solicitors office" he c%ontinu-

responsible places under our State
government, and l shall always be
grateful TO our people for choosing me
for and retaining me in this position
SO long; but in its present pitiab bic
condition | cannot afford to longer
hold it in justice to myself.
AT the expiration of my present
term l intend to devote all of my
time and attention to my private Ia "
practice"
n solicitor seems to be no more
in love with the fee system than viii
the system Of recorders courts. He
told how, N Columbus county. he bar
spent a week IN prosecuting a man 10,
