OUR FINE FALL WEATHER.

The weather in this neighborhood
during October was OF the finest char
acter, although there was a dearth of
rain that caused considerable dlscom-
fort, especially to farmers. But withal.
the weather was glorious and inspir-
ing. And our November weather,
thus far, has been OF the same fine
quality.
Such fan weather in this locality
is not the exception, but the rule. Sell
dom do we miss our enjoyment of
rare October days. brilliant with sun
shine that warns but does not dis
tress. and air that is as inspiring as
wine OF the finest vintage, but with
out any Of alcohol's deleterious or

how hot the summer may prove, the
fall weather that generally prevails
in this neighborhood is of the stir
ring and bracing character of thi.
falls visitation. And occasionally
these pleasing weather conditions con
tinue almost uninterrupted until clos,

favored locality. and no other section
Of our land can boast of finer or NOR,

DYER's ANTI.LYNcnIxa BILL.

The bill introduced in. Congress by
Representative Dyer to constitute
lynching crime attionable In the
Federal Courts has no plainly a poItI-
cal, rather than sound constitutional
purpose that II deserves little serious
attention. II is no proper part OF the
functions of the Federal government
TO control the local police and to pre-
serve the peace in the respective
states. but with the constant encroach-
ment upon the state powers by Con-
gress that time may not be far dis
tsnt. Then the states Will have become
mere subordinate political divisions OF
the Federal empire.
BY the addition OF only few words
to his bill. however, Representative
Dyer can make OF IL a genuinely con-
structive measure. These words would
limit Its application to aliens, whom
the Federal government IL bound 10
protect under the obligation OF trea-
ties.
The Constitution confers jurisdIction
upon the Federal courts in all eIvll
cases where an alien is party and
when the amount involved exceeds n
certain sum. Yet when II comes to
matters affecting his life and his
rights under the law OF nations the
Federal government has no Iurisdic-
tion whatever. II Is In the position of
assuming international obligations
which II cannot legally discharge. with
the result that our government stands
defenseless against the claims OF for.
eign governments made In behalf of
their nationals thus injured.

has compelled many Secretaries OF

THE CARE OF THE NEEDY.

To care for the deserving needy will
be task unusually onerous for the
people of Wilmington during the COM
ing winter. BY reason of the severe
and long-continued business depres-
sion. many worthy persons have been
reduced to extreme penury by inabil-
ity TO secure employment of any kind.
And only very small portion OF our
community is in position to live COM
fortably without work.
The relief campaign, therefore. will
tax the ability of all our helpful or
ganizations and necessitate the appli-
cation OF care. circumspection and
business practices In the distribution
OF aid. IL is encouraging. therefore.
20 note the plan outlined by the Meth
odist Preachers Association OF this
city, by which each church represented
by the association will make a survey
of its own district and care for the
needy and unemployed, as far as pos
sible, in that section.
BY such practical divisions of labor
Il may be possible TO cover the entire
community throughout the winter.
and thereby to alleviate much suffering
hope that none of the poor and dis
tressed will suffer unduly, and that
the approach OF spring will find the
entire country ready to enter upon a
career OF unexampled industrial and
financial prosperity.

THE NEOsH0 PLAN.

In Neosho, Mo, the merchants had
for years endeavored to compete with
each other--had pulled in opposite di-
rections and had reached the con-
ciusion' that it didn't pay. And then
G. r.. Lowe. at that time the adyer-
tising manager for nursery company
of Neosho, and now recommended 10
small towns by the Associated Adver-
tising Clubs as a source OF informa-
tion that will help them in their busi-
ness problems, presented plan TO in
crease business.
Fundamentally II was only an APP
pIication OF the Golden Rule to bust
ness. A business mems club was or
ganized and the merchants decided to
help one another. In 10 years practice
they have found that it pays. A GUS
toner is no longer told by merchant
that a competitors goods are inferior.
Advertisements are honest, and are
guaranteed by the business mems as
sociation, through whose censorship
they pass. Competitors have become
friends, and have worked for the inn
provement of the town. and have
proved lldl III tOnNiltiHk the DtlBI-
boring farmers of the honesty OF the
town they have increased business, not
only for the town, but also for each
individual merchant i'm it,
Nor has the plan initiated in Neosho
remained at home. Other towns. in
other states, have put 1t into opera
tion, some with almost no changes
and others with alterations. But
wherever the spirit Of the Golden Rule
has definitely become part of the
business life OF the community, busi-
ness has prospered. Sales days, COM
munity advertising, advertising CEN
sored by the business mems associa-
tions, special fairs. meetings with the
farmers of the vicinity, stock sales
and farmers auctions, sales pavilions
for visiting farmers and rest rooms for
{ their wives and families, all have en-
I tered into the operation of the Neosho
i plan, but all of these are but incident
al. The success of the plan results
from the application of the theory
that the Golden Rule is practical ii
business.-W Work.
