PosToFFIcE CHANGES.
McNair Made Assistant.
J. A. Black to Garry
Mail From Depot to
Postoffice.

Miss Ruby Mcintosh recently
resigned as assistant postmaster
of the Rockingham office to ac-
cept work in the Bank of Pee
Dee. Charles Rufas McNair, the
Carrier of Route l, effective yes.
terday, becomes assistant to the
postmaster, and Clyde Black, the
substitute Carrier, will carry the
Route l mail until an examinat,
ion can later be held.
An illustration of the inexor-
ableness of modern life is shown
in the elimination of Uncle
Caleb Leak as carrier of the mail
from the office to the depot. Just
as electricity has supplemented
lamps, railroads the stage coach,
and automobiles the horse, so a
faster age now demands a speed
ier delivery of the mail from the
trains to the Office. For thirty
years Uncle" Caleb has faith
fully met the trains, during all
this time his pay remaining at
$12.50 per month. Though faith
full in every way, yet this method
of conveying the mail was much
too slow; and so the department
asked for bids for carrying it by
auto. ]. A. Black was given the
job at $3.50 per year, and he must
carry it by auto. The change be-
came effective May 10th.
Inasmuch as Uncle Caleb
has served the government at al
most nothing for thirty years,
rain or shine, hot or cold, year in
and year out, it would seem he
ought to have some form of pen
sion. We hope some citizen will
become interested enough to look
into this for this old darkey.

REFUSE REQUEST
TO HOLD PARADE
Moline City Council Backs Mayor
Carlson I'm Denying Socialists
Proposed demonstration.

Assuming the same attitude he
took last fall. Mayor Martin r..
Carlson has again refused to allow
Socialists to either stage a parade
in Moline on May l or to hold Sat
urday night street gatherings,
claiming that the demonstrations
are for the purpose of scattering
Socialist propaganda which he
holds to be antagonistic to vigor-
Gus prosecution of war on the part
of America.
Yesterday afternoon Edgar Ow-
ems, secretary of the county Social
list organization appealed to Mayor
| Carlson for a permit to hold street
meetings. The mayor called a con-
/ ference of the council and it was
unanimously decided to refuse the
request.
1 In speaking of the matter. the
mayor said that the action was TAX
en- for two reasons: Because So
| cialist propaganda is opposed to eff
| fectual prosecution of the war and
any spread of such propaganda
would be giving aid and comfort to
/ the enemy and because a large ma
! jority of Moline people are aiding
/ the government in every possible
way and any attempt at spreading
disloyal teachings might. therefore,
/ tend to cause disturbances. COntin-
uing he said:
/ LAS mayor of Moline it is my
duty TO aid in every way to keep
I the peace of the community. Most
/ of the people of Moline are intense
! " loyal. If the Socialists attempt
ed to spread their propaganda, and
! their propaganda opposes effectual
prosecution of the war, there might
! be trouble.
| 1T is well known that many So
/ cialists are opposed to the war.
1 Their party platform says as much.
/ If they spread their propaganda in
! Moline-the told me that's what
| they wanted to dot is reasonable
to assume that they will also at
| tempt to spread that part of Social
istic dogma which is anti-war prop
uganda.
GAS a loyal American and as an
| officer of the city of Moline it is,
therefore impossible for me to coun-
! tenance such meetings 1t devolved
upon me to deny their request for
permits"
