PIONEERS

The seventeen American navy
men and twenty-seven Britishers,
who yesterday lost their lives in the
wrecking of the giant dirigible ZR-2
were pioneers and heroes. They were
pioneers of the kind TO which the
world is indebted for its advance
ment, pioneers and heroes after the
type of Columbus.
New worlds are not opened up by
accident When Columbus took his
life in his hands and sailed across
the Atlantic he came with the abid-
ing faith that he would find new
world, that he would open up new
paths to coming generations. An
adventurer2g Yes. But an adven-
turer with a vision. The quiet home
was a madman. They were sure no
man should risk his life on such an
impossible venturef, But we Amer
leans are sure America was worth the
risk
The brave men who are attempt
ing to establis air routes across the
Atlantic Ocean are adventurers and
pioneers after the type of Columbus.
When Harry Hawker and MacKen-
Zie Grieve, two stouthearted English
subjects, attempted non stop flight
across the Atlantic, some conserva-
tive folks declared the daring of the
two men was unreasonable. And
when the world lost track of the
airmen for days, the timid folks at
home were sure things had hap
pened as was to be expected. But
when Harry Hawker came safely in
on the slow little ship. Mary, with
his plane a wreck in the Atlantic
Ocean he had lost his ship and failed
in his tanscontinental flight but he
had learned things in that danger
Gus trip that were of invaluable aid
to other adventurous souls that
would try the ocean flight.
Dauntless American navy men in
the hydroairplane NC-4 were the ad-
venturers who finally flew across the !
the Atlantic. A biplane and diri-
gible have also made the trip. Others |
will follow. Men will give their |
lives before regular and safe pas
sages are established. But these
pioneers blaze the trail with brave
hearts. And when one of the high
hearted pioneers meets disaster on
The paths of glOry'' the world |
should mourn a hero dead.

LENIN A DREAMER

A confession written by Lenin in a
private letter to a friend abroad that
the Russian Revolution has failed
and that the Communist State which
he tried to build up was a dream and
chimera, has come into possession
of the Matin of Paris,
In the letter, which was written to
friend of former days of exile, the
Russian leader shows something of
the greatness of his conception of
social life and his philosophic grasp
OF how he and the Russian people
have failed. There is no grieving,
no repining. The man shows himself
bigger than that. He has tried one
OF the greatest experiments ever
consciously tried by a human being
and now all he asks is time to think
1t all out and find where the theories
he talked with his friends in their
exile were wrong and to construct
new ones on the facts and experiences
which the revolution has provided.
He admits miscalcuIations and
mistakes in his estimate of class
consciousness and human factors in
his experiment, and he confesses
that three years of constant. unceas-
ing labor have worn him out Thus
he writes:
AS for me. I am tired I feel it
every day more and more I am Gag
er for a rest and for time to verify
my deductions and theories to which
have given my whole life. NV

EXPORT COMPANY MAKES
STATEMENT

For the interest of the Stockhold,
ers and patrons of the American Pro
ducts Export C Import Corporation
/ will give you the following facts:
In the seven months up to July
list, we have handled 49.245 bales
'lSince that time, we have handled
considerable cotton). We have ex-
ported to that date, $50 bales and
sold for domestic consumption 12,-
459 bales. We have on hand about
$4,000 bales. We have kept on hand
"a stock of cotton equal to the num-
Der of bales subscribed to the capi-
tai stock of the Corporation: and we
have on hand the Liberty Bonds,
which were subscribed to the capital
stock of the Corporation. We have
used $133, ,529.23 cash subscriptions
to the capital stock as a working
capital, and after paying off all oper-
aflng expenses, we show a profit up
to July 1st of $34,5OO. We have
paid out to farmers for cotton ST.
>509.3S44S.
We have been in the market every
day since we began business and
have paid the market prices every
day even when no other buyers were
IN the field and we had no competi-
tion. This was the case for consider
able periods of time during the time
we nave been in business. There is
no Question but that this has been
OF great advantage to the farmers be-
cause. when no other buyers were in
the field they would doubtless have
had to take lower prices than thew
would have obtained had we not
been in the market Our purpose
has been to move cotton especially
Tor export and we have sold to the
best advantage whenever opportunity
offered.
We feel that we have seen our
most difficult time and that the out
look for the Corporation for an in
creasing business abroad, as we'll as
domestic, is good.

PLANT OATS

prominent farmer of Wilson
county says that every farmer should
plant half acre of oats to every

and in this way another crop Of feed
may be made.

FAITH IN CAR is JUsFERtED
u. S. Official Crosses Continent m
Six-Year Old Car Which Had
Already Travelled Over
100000 Miles.

His car was six years old and had
rolled up Leg, 900 miles of travel, but
that did not deter the city attorney
of Hermosa Beach, Calf, when he
had occasion to make a trip to
Washington. d. c., not long ago.
Its 5000 miles, he said, .'and
part of the way is rough going, but
! III drive it, just the same
The gentleman referred to was
none other than George r. Wickham,
who, in making the trip to Washing
ton, was responding to the call of
the government, for the senate had
just confirmed his appointment as
assistant u. S. Commissioner of
| lands, with headquarters at the pa
tional capital.
LAS Mr. Wickham drove up to the
salesrooms of the Albertson Motor
Co., Dodge Brothers dealers in Los
Angeles, to say goodbye" says the
Los Angeles Express in its account
of his departure, Ibis early Dodge
Brothers car, built in 1915, belied
its age. The original finish was still
there, little scratched, but still
there
''I understand that the field service
department of the general land office
has standardized of Dodge Brothers
cars, SO 1 will be right in style
when l arrive to take up my new
duties,'' said Mr.. Wickham. t'And
after the strenuous mountain trips
that l have made l can readily un-
derstand why the land office has de-
cided on Dodge Brothers cars for the
use of their surveyors. assistants and
supply men. I bought my car which,
by the way, was one of the first in
Los Angeles, early in 1915 and have
piloted it over nearly every foot OF
California, Nevada and Oregon.
f'I have driven in every conceiv-
able sort Of weather and on every
known variety of roads and excuses
for roads. And in all my travels I
have yet to be towed or have any
serious trouble
Mr.. Wickham made the trip with
his wife and two children. That their
faith in the old car was fully justi-
fed is attested by the. fact that the
journey was made in good time and
the slightest untoward in
cident. Adv

The idea is generally prevalent In
this neck of the woods that the Vir-
giniaa cities are anxious to see Ports
mouth or Norfolk win, and that in
order to bring this about that they
may not try any too hard to pre-
vent their doing SO. The fact that
Richmond and Portsmouth are not in
thorough accord over a number of
things, and that Norfolk and Ports
mouth are constantly fighting each
other, must no be lost sight of. Be-
sides all hree of these teams have a
mighty good chance to win, and. they
can't afford to let up for a moment.
We are not doubtina for moment
that they would enjoy seeing
North Carolina town licked but at
the present time they are not going
to throw away good money and a
chance at the pennant for sentimen-
tai reasons. AS long as the race con-
tinues close. as it is now, we have

matter of winning all tn" game We

wearing me down. Governmental
work is impossible in the way it is
carried on here. Our young bureau
Gratis have completely inherited the
errors Of their predecessors and
have even widened the gulf there ex-
lists between the governors and the
governed.
Our gamble on the collective in
stinct which ought to hold together
the members of the party was a
mistake. The collective instinct OF
the peasants and workers has never
justified the hopes we placed in it
and has completely failed"
After discussing the events OF the
revolution and its gradual develop
ment, Lenin goes on to admit that
he had misjudged the Russian peo-
pie, as his friend had limited he was
doing when they lived together in
exile.
''The Russian workers and peas
ants have betrayed their own inter
ests," he laments. 81 was mistaken
in them"
There is no bitterness in the state
ment. 1t is simply the admission OF
the sculptor that for his work he
had selected a piece Of marble which
later he discovered to be faulty. But
he is not entirely discouraged. There
is still work to do to save the wreck.
THAT we are still in power" he
continues, sis solely due to the ef-
forts of the party, which is giving all
its enegry to keep the power in our
hands and maintain even in part the
possibility Of social re-education by
which a new step can be made to-
wards the development of world rev.
olution. But I feel that the strength
of the party is lessening each day and
that petty jealousies and futile con-
ceits and personal interests of peo-
pie, which they put above the COM
mon interest, is breaking up the
party.
For a long time past 1 have real
lied the imminence of compromise
and concessions on our side which
would draw to our party new forces
and increase the little band of weary
and really devoted workers. With
out that we cannot hold on. To gam
BILE on revolutionary militarism, on
our Napoleon would be to risk COM
plete defeat and would be the last
effort of the party, which would
perish after having thrown into the
struggle its last reserves.
Il have given Krassin a hint as to
the necessity of beginning confiden-
TALLY to get in touch with the So
cialist groups among the Russians
abroad so as to find out the possibil-
ity of compromise. 1 send you the
same request, old friend and many

with personal request to the recip-
