In mixed population like that
of the United States it is possible,
when war ruftles the placid calm OF
peace days, for some loyal citizens
to distrust and call into question,
on very slight provocation, the
loyalty of other citizens. Before
the United States entered the war,
many citizens had (within their
rights expressed opposing views
as to the merits of the European
situation and as to whether Ameri-
ca should or should not take sides
ia the conflict. Circumstances
have since placed restrictions. The
United States, which means all its
citizens, is now partner on one
side of the conflict. After the gov
eminent declared war, such oppo-
sition among the citizens is no
longer proper. There are only two
SIDES, and it is needless to say
which side every loyal citizen must
be on. Now the department of
justice is beginning to ferret out
those, who, by word or deed since
this country joined the allies, have
clearly taken sides against the gov
eminent and have thereby made
themselves a menace and an ele-
ment of danger to the government.
In various communities citizens,
themselves, jealous in their loyalty,
are forming vigilance committees,
and in others the accusing finger is
being pointed. Here lies the other
danger. A citizen, in his zeal to
help discourage disloyalty and
stamp out treason, may do injus-
tice occasionally unless great care
is exercised. Treason is a crime.
but it is also crime to wrongfully
accuse another of treason. The law
provides punishment for both
crimes. 1t is important, then, that
every citizen keep himself above
suspicion by being true in speech
and conduct to his oath of alleg-
lance, and also that those who
accuse others of treason be sure of
the facts on which such accusation
is based. Thus may much trouble
be avoided.

ELIZABETH CITY
STRONG ON BEANS
(By Herbert Deele. J

Elizabeth City, Oct. 23.-The
section tributary to Elizabeth
City produces more soya (soy)
beans, or stock peas, as the farm
ers call them than any part of
the United States. Scotland
Neck recently told Of a shipload
being crushed there; but it s al
together a drop in the bucket
with what Elizabeth City is do
ing and has for some years, with
the Celestial Kindom seeds.
Farmers here produce pork
cheaper than in any other part Of
the State because they turn their
hogs right into soya bean fields
grown for the purpose. Incident
ally, no other section produces so
much pork as this immediate To-
cality. Because this is realized
in Washington, D. c., federal
government representative main
! tains headquarters in Elizabeth
City and makes it his sole bust
ness to prevent hog cholera in
the six counties to the north Of
/ Albemarle Sound. The very first
experiments in this country in
crushing soya beans were made
by w. 7. Culpepper, of the Eliza
beth City Oil and Fertilizer Com
pany.
The U. S. Agriculture Depart
ment heard, came, saw and be-
came convinced. Then large
scale experiments were made.
Since 1915, here and at Hartford
near here, soya beans have been
handled in quantity.

OIL USED BY RAILROADS

A decided increase in the use of pc.
troleum as locomotive fuel by the rail
roads Of the United States in 1916 is
shown by the statistics compiled under
the supervision of John d. Northrop
and just published by the United
States Geological Survey, Department
of the Interior.
Reports submitted by SO railroad
companies, comprising all that operate
oil burning locomotives in the United
States show that the quantity of oil
fuel so consumed last year was Az
126,417 barrels, gain Of 5,477,951
barrels, or Is per cent over the con-
sumption in 1915.
This increase shows the steady ex-
pansion in the United States of the
market for low grade petroleum from
Mexico rather than any appreciate
increase in the use of fuel of low
gravity crude oils from domestic sour
ces, whose value for refining is just
beginning to be recognized.
The total distance covered by oil
burning engines in 1917 was 140,434,-
566 miles, and the average distance
covered per barrel of fuel consumed
was 1888 miles. Oil burning locomo-
81 $50 miles of track in 81 states.
