The State Normal The catalogue of the North Car­ olina State Normal Industrial Col­ lege, advertisement of which ap­ pears in another column, shows an enrollment during the past year of 491 college students and 30(5 pu­ pils in the Practice and Observa­ tion School. The dormitory capacity will be increased before the next annual session opens September 15th, tilt it will be necessary to give most 0 the new places next year to tuition paying'students, as the rooms must be furnished and the college has nofunds'with which to furnish them except us it secures funds from tuition. Students secure free-tuition by agreeing to become teachers in the public or private schools of the state for at least two years af­ ter leaving the college, and in no other way can free-tuitiou be secured. AU the free-tuition students cannot secure board, in the dormitories where hoard is fur nished at actual cost, but ,places will be reserved in the dormitories for 175 free-tuition students and 175 tuition-paying stndents. Pro­ vision will be made for fifty free- taition students with board in pri vate families aud 25 tuition-pay ins students with board iu private families.. There are so many applications lor free-tuition with board in the dormitories that it will be neces­ sary occasional Iy to hold competi­ tive examinations, and in order to secure a chance for one of these free-tuition places with board in the dormitories an application should hem the hands of Presi­ dent McIver on or before July 15. Eaeh county-iu the state is entitl­ ed to one or more of these places, according to the white population of the county. In the dormitories the annual expenses' of a frce-tui- tieia student for board, laundry, and fees for registration, pliysici- j an’s attendance, library, use of ln ? * u eoiIrt UcxPbookS, ectf, is .§100. Tuitiot paying students pay $140. .Non­ residents of the state pay $100. The annual expenses of students in private families is about $12 more than that of boarders in the college dormitories. The Schools &c. Elsewhere appears a notice to the public published in the Davie TimesofJunelSthfrom Capt N. .A,? Peeblesehairman of the Board of Edueatfon^THtIl MSfSflce ,to the election of School Committee­ men. We are surprised that Capt. Peebles did not ask that this no­ tice bn published in the Record. All the people regardless, of poli­ tics are interested in the public schools, and if they are sineerly in favor of promoting the best edu­ cational interest of the county, the committes will Dot be packed with Democrats, and we hope that they will rise above partizanry and keep politics out of our schools. A majority of the people in this county are Republicans, aud they pay a goodly portion of the taxes, aud should not be ignored. This attempt to ignore Republicans will cut no figure with us. We have had reason to criticise same tbiugs connected with the school mana­ gement iu this county, and will do so again if necessary, but we are willing to give space in oar paper to any' notices of real interest to the triends of education. Its no reflectioirou us, that a county of­ ficial ignores a county’ paper be­ cause ot its politics. We Shall stand by the people, and defend their rights as best we can.

C.—The latest week­ ly crop report, prepared by the Weather Bureau follows: • While still too cbbl in the districts east of the Rocky JIountains the tem­ perature conditions of the week were somewhat more favorable in the cen­ tral valleys and Southern States, but over portions of tho lake region and middle Atlantic States and in New England it was colder than in the pre­ ceding week. Heavy rain's in the two last-named districts interrupted farm work. Haiu is now needed in the Dakotas, northern Minnesota, aud in portions of the central and east Gulf„ districts.A general improvement in the condi­tion of corn in tlie central valleys is indicated especially over the western portions. In the lake region, New England and middle Atlantic States little or no improvement in this crop is noted. In all northern and central districts corn continues very late, but it is in good state of cultivation, except in tlie middle Atlantic States. ' Winter wheat harvest has made fa­vorable progress and is now general in the central portions of the winter wheat belt, while disappointing yields, especially in the southern portions of Missouri, Illinois and Indiana. In the middle Atlantic States a general im­provement is indicated. . 'Spring wheat is suffering for rain in North Dakota and portions of Sonth Dakota, and is affected by rust oniti generally iu Nebraska. IasHi I ip ['ill tIi* 'i IT1I, -Tiowever, the crop, ""!Br a rule, is doing well, and in Minne­sota, Wisconsin and IoWa continues in promising condition.The outlook for oats is less promis­ing in the Dakotas, Nebraska, north­ern Minnesota, Missouri and.southern Illinois. In Wisconsin, Kansas, up­lands in Iowa, and in northern Illinois a good crop is promised; An improve­ment is reported from Michigan, the Ohio Valley ' and middle Atlantic States.Kecent ITtins have caused a marked• improvement in grass in New England and the middle Atlantic States, but the crop will be light in .these districts, and also in the upper Ohio Valley. A good crop is being secured in the cen­tral valleys. In Missouri, Arkansas, Illinois, In­ diana and Pennsylvania apples are un­promising, but the outlook continues favorable in Iowa, Wisconsin, Michi­gan and Kentucky./T ie following statements have been telegraphed by State section directors of the Climate and Crop Service of the ,Weather Bureau: New England—Cloudy, rainy weath­er; grass, grain and pastures benefited; potatoes uneven, but improving; ap­ples uneven, growing well; com poor, much replanted, some fields plowed up for forage crops; strawberries rot- • ting; other small fruits improving; to­ bacco making slow growth, but im­proving; all crops need sunshine.New York—Week cloudy, rainy and cold; grouud too wet for work; marked improvement in wheat, rye, oats, bar­ley, meadows, pastures, hops and to­bacco; much too cold for corn and po­ tatoes, whieh are uneven and back- ward and to be largely replanted; acre­age of buckwheat will be large; ap: pies vary, being estimated fronT light to heavy; other fruit light generally; grapes good. , New Jersey—i iool, cloudy weather, frequent rains, heavy in places, stimu­ lated vegetation generally, but retard­ ed farm work, which is at a standstill in places; wheat nearly ready to cut, heads large and well filled; com yel­low, needs sunshine; bush fruits very promising. • Pennsylvania—Continuous rains ahd low temperature; ground too wet for cultivation; wheat, rye, 6ats, grass to­bacco, potatoes and garden truck much improved; yield of hay-will be light, biit better than anticipated, cutting begun; clover very short; timothy im­proving; warmth and sunshine needed, particularly for corn; berries fairly plentiful, but other fruits generally short. KING PETER SERVIA Diplotnats Ignora Him, But People’s Recsption is Enthusiastic. It is Said, Though, That Officors Goaded Themto SIiont “Ions; Xiire tho EiDSri-Gayotyin Belgrade. President Orders the Vigorous Pros­ ecution of Postal Offenders. AN EX-CONGRESSMAN INDICTED Belgrade, Servia.—King Peter, on his arrival here, was received with great enthusiasm. The King, who wore the uniform of a Servian general and looked grave and almost nervous, de­ scended from his car amid a faufare of trumpets. ' He shook hands with Premier Avakumovitch, who ended a powerful speech of welcome with call­ing for cheers for King Peter, to which the crowd responded with enthusiasm. The King read his answer to the Pre­mier’s welcome in low tones, thanking li5m and promising to do his utmost for the good of the kingdom.Replying to an address of welcome delivered by M. Pauiovitcht a member of the Communal Council, King Peter said he would see to it that Belgrade became a worthy centre of Servian life.The only foreign representative who participated in the reception were the !Russian Minister. M. Tchar.vkoff, and the Austrian Minister, Herr Dumba.After the ma&s the Metropolitan made a short address. He said God’s guid­ance was evident in everything, aud prayed God to grant King Peter the power to rule wisely and well. A spe­cial prayer for the King was offered, and the choir chanted the old Gregor­ian “Kyrie Eleison” (“Lord Have Mer- cy.”)The King approached the Metropoli­tan and kissed his hand as a tribute of the temporal to the spiritual power, and the congregation burst into hearty cries of'“Long lire the King'” It was evident the new monarch was affected deeply by the ceremony, and his manner as-he left the church con­veyed the impression that he had come to some .momentous resolution during his self-communing before the altaiu The King’s processiog_iaSvea~^it Ibrisk trot to^yig^g^paince. The King entej^g.-ftgstate ballroom, where the members of the Skupshtina presented him with an address of welcome. Iii reply King Peter remarked that he could only repeat what he had said at the railroad station—that he would do his best to rule in accordance with the constitution.King Peter advanced to the Deputies and shook hands with each of them, but he did not utter a word.After luncheon the King held a con­ference with the Ministers and dis­cussed the situation. He dined quietly and witnessed the torchlight procession in the evening.There are no lack of persons convers­ant with the inner life of .the Servian capital who say the apparently univer­sal enthusiasm was a cleverly "stage managed” demonstration, and that many expressions of regret were ut­tered privately, and that except for the mounted officers who circulated among the crowds, commanding the people to cheer for King Peter, much of the OOti ward signs of rejoicing would have been absent. ' PCPc CARRIiTD TO CONSISTORY. Kamrs Jfew Cardinals rnd In Very Tired at the ISnd of the Corewoay* ( Home.—A consistory was lleld a few ways ago. The pope was carried to Consistory Hall. He announced the new dignities that had been conferred and delivered ah allocution.^The following were created. Car­dinals: Mgi-. Nocella, secretary of the Consistorial Congregation; Mgr. Cavic-' chioni, secretary of the Congregation of the Council; Mgr. Fischer, the Arcli- Oishop of Cologne; Mgr. Taliani, the Papui Nuncio at Vienna; Mgr. Katsch- thaler the Archbishop of Salzburg; ; iu* ^ Nuncio at Lisbon, andthe Most Rev. Espinosa, the Arch­bishop of Valencia. The Pope stood the fatigue better tuan had been expected. • The Poniiff read a brief allocution in Latin m a weak voice. He stopped frequently and looked very tired at the end. He said to Dr. Lapponi after it was over: “Well, I held the Consistory, though tho newspapers say I am dying.” FORCED RELEASE OF CORWELL: fiv e Thoneantl lletaw arcans Deliiatidcii Alleged, l.yiiclter’3 D tseiiarge.WilmingtSn1 Del.—An angry mob of 5000 persons, threatening to storm the City jail here, forced the authorities to release Arthur Corwell, who was tvnilef arrest charged with the leadership of the crowd which burned at the stake George White, the negro, wJi o brutally assaulted and killed Helen Bishop on June 15. The verdict of the Coroner’s Jury, whieh found that White died at tlie hands 6f persons unknown, made pos­sible this release, and just as soon as it was known that this verdict iieid no person responsible for White’s death AttorilS^General H. H. Ward caught at the straw and ordered Cor- -VrelTs release on $5000 bail. It was im­mediately forthcoming, and Corwell was freed just as the mob began get­ting despcrafe Tills speedy- action ■ undoubtedly averted bloodshed, .for the inob was growing more threatening each minute. As it was, there , was grsni: disorder .‘Iiid tlie police Department had all It could do to preserve order. Crowds of men and boys numbering from fifty to 200 each marched here and there sing­ing and cheering, 'celebrating the re­lease of Corwell and the popular ver­dict of the Coroner’s Jury.The belief is growing liere that Ho one will ever be punished f&r the lynching of White-. Certain prominent citizens, although they deplore the oc- ciiWSBce, stand ready to raise a fund for the defense of any one who should be prosecuted for the offense. Officials and leading citizens seem to be agreed that the best thing to be doae iii view of the volcanic condition of the public mind is to let tlie matter drop. . . , CHlLBfiEN RIiJE WITH DUMONT.

As a result of this investigation a number of indict* ments have already been bad, and it is probable that other indictments will hereafter be asked for.“There can be no greater offense against the Government than a breach of trust on the part of a public official or the dishonest management Of his office, and, of course, every effort must be exerted to bring such offenders to punishment by the utmost rigor of the law. “The District Attorney's office of the District of Coiumbid has faithfully and zealously seconded the efforts^5 ihe POstoffice Departmeijt-HrtnHs natter, but theagisjiBt^of-(vork in the office Is sPislMnfto make it difficult, without Iieglecting other important public duties, to devote all the time necessary to the prosecution of these eases.

S. Bullard, promi-l nent white farmer of the seventh djs. I trict of Baker County. The manner I in which the prisoners were obtained I is unique and altogether without pre.| cedent. Jailor Wm. Screws who sides in the jail, was awakened about! 12 o’clock by Bailiff R. C. Tucker. wh01 stated that he had a prisoner to place I iu ths lock-up. The jailer hastily! donned his clothes and proceeded to I the jail. As soon as lie had! unlocked the prison door he nasi suddenly surrounded by a swarm oil men with drawn revolvers, who do-j manded that he unlock tho cell in] which the negroes were lodged. Ho! did as commanded under protest, and I the three negroes were dragged from I the jail, the prisoner of Tucker mat-1 Ing his escape during the excitemcnt. I Their appeals for mercy was lost on I the mob, who began beating and I '■.lapping them as soon as they had left the jail door. I “The mob lost no tiriK! in leaving INewton with the negroes atul when Ia mile from town the three men were I halted, nooses tied around their necks and, amid the shouts of the men, were I strung up. The mob fired several j hundred Shots into the swaying bod­ies after which they quietly dispersed.“The crime for whieh the negroes I were lynched occurred on the planta-1 tion of Bullfifd last Saturday .h&Hj during tho progress of a dance given] by one of Bullard’s tenants, Negroes! from Early, Miller and Decatur coim-| ties Were present, and trouble was I started by McKinney and the others I putting out the lights. Just at this I juncture Bullard appeared on tlie I scene and commanded order. His in-1 terfereiiea was resented by the three I negroes who opened fire on him with I revolvers. Bullard fell mortally I wounded and died on Tuesday. I“The negroes were arrested Tues-I day and lodged in jail at Newton. At I their commitment trial it was proven I that, ths shot that killed Bullanl was I fired by McKinney, and that Anettc I and McCoy also fired at him. The lie-1 Rroea were remanded to jail to await I trial at tlio next session of Baker Sn-1 perior Court, and absolutely no talk I of lynching was indulged in Iiy citi-1 zens. It is the consensus cf opinion I that the work of the mob was largely I due to the fact that Bullard’s family is I left in a sad condition, his wife being I a hopeless invalid and seveial small [ children are dependent. The lynch­ing was a great surprise to the people I of the county, as it was generally be­lieved that the law would be allowed I to take its course in their cases. The j lynching is generally deplored.” Railroad Agent Shot Goldsboro, N. C., Special—A Hhoot- I ing occurred at Dudley station Friday nine miles south of Goldsboro. C. A.

Squat Privilege in AU Foreign Marlrets - For Our Erporls an.1 Impartial Tveat- ment of AU Imports is the Kind of Be- ciprocity Ihis Country Wants. There is no question that the United States can get all the reciprocity treaties it wants or call aspire to If it will to that end cut down sufficiently its protective duties and make sacri­ ficial offerings of its home industries. It may be claimed in many instances and perhaps proven in some that the particular sacrifices demanded are small in comparison with the general advantage to be gained; but such reasoning will never he satisfactory to the industries to be sacrificed or preju- diced; nor is it at all likely, nor desir­ able, that Congress will ever place un­ reservedly the power to slaughter pro­ tective duties In the hands of the Presi­ dent, who in the course of time and events might be actuated by an over- anxiety to make a reciprocity record or even ^ by hostility to protection as a principle. So the industries threatened defend themselves through their friends in Congress and have the moral support outside of people who without being Well advised in the premises believo In fair play to every legitimate Ameri­ can industry and view with instinctive suspicion any proposition to find a for­ eign market for some products Ijy im­ pairing the home market for other produets. From ail of which It appeal's not merely that reciprocity, as it has been recently proposed, has failed to work, but that from the contritions surround- ing it it was from the start destined to failure, and may as well now be rele­ gated definitely to the limbo of attrac­ tive but impracticable schemes. Acceptance of this situation should not, however, carry with it abandon­ ment of efforts to promote the foreign trade and commercial expansion of the country. Katlier should the frank rele­ gation of any unavailable instrument make easier the search for an effective weapon for a most proper purpose! Reciprocity at best is a piecemeal prop­ osition, Involving a haggle with each separate nation over the mutual conces­ sions to lie made, and by its necessary and interminable delays wearying its friends and disgusting everyone. The dignity of the United States and the practical necessities of the case alike demand the adojition of some policy that shall be susceptible of general ap­ plication; that shall protect the Amer­ ican producer and shipper against petty exactions and discriminations in for­eign markets, and that shall, in short, compel In every quarter the “open door” for American trade, but tliai shall bo content when that door is just as open to American trade as it is to any other trade. The time was when the United States was not of sufficient commercial conse­ quence to enable it successfully to in­ augurate such a policy; but the time is when the United States with its im­ mense population, unprecedented wealth and unapproached consuming capacity for nearly all sorts of products is in po­ sition, if it admits the productrs of an­ other nation upon the same terms as it admits the products of all other na­ tions. to demand Jrouitliat nation like treatment for its own products.’ To ask more would be to ask what other nations are very likely prohib­ ited by their existing agreements from granting; but equality of treatment the United States may justly and should in self-respect insist upon; and the nation which denies this much should be made to pay upon all its exports to this coun­ try a discriminating duty, either uni­ form for all nations of its class or graduated according to the discrimina­ tions which American exports suffer in its markets. By such policy of dignified insistance and retaliation must the United States in the end protect its interests in the markets of jealous nations; and with such protection assured there is every reason to anticipate that the era of American commercial expansion will soon appear to be only well begun.— Nevada (Iowa) Representative. Tarift Malting by Treaty. Tariff making by treaty is not only apparently a violation of the cousiitu tion, and certainly of its evident intern that the House of Representatives shall initiate all revenue measures, but de­ structive of the theory of fair play and equal opportunity to ail citizens, which has been held to be the crowning glory of America, as it must be the founda­ tion of all popular government. Wlicn a tariff measure is discussed in the House it is discussed In the open and every interest has an opportunity to be heard. When it is arranged in the se­cret cabinets of crafty diplomatists, the most deserving of industries may lie condemned unheard. It is monstrous, and, one would suppose, unthinkable by the honorable representatives of a freedom loving people. Stiil more, every reciprocity treaty is an “en­ tangling alliance,'” inevitably involving more entangling alliances to untangle the first. American traditions and American interests imperatively de­ mand that we maintain the American attitude of absolutely impartial trading wfth all the nations of the world.—Sau Francisco Chronicle.

NOT ARTI !CIAL Piosperity U ndor P ro trciio n a Kaiional a n d Inovitablo C ondition. In his-report on the situation and out­ look of the iron and steel industries of the United States, Mr. James Cox, rep­resenting the Associated Iron and Steel Workers of Great Britain, and who last year visited this country as n member of the Mosely Commission, takes the characteristic Cobdenito vioiv of the drawbacks and dangers attending the system of protection. He says: “Probe the American iron and steel industry sufficiently deep, and it re­ veals the fact that In spite of unlimited supplies of cheap material, cheap transit, latest improvements in ma­chinery, and enormors concentrations of capital, the wealthiest manufactur­ ers strenuously assert the continued necessity of prohibitive tariffs as the only means of maintaining and secur­ ing their home trade against outside competitors. The strongest—the most vehement, I might almost say—advo­ cates of protective tariffs are to he found among the iron and steel manu­ facturers—the industry most advan­ tageously placed in regard to natural deposits and facilities. What does this contention imply? That j-ery much of the American industrial posi­ tion is both limited and artificial, and remains yet to be tested and proved.” It is but a faint ray of hope and en­ couragement that flashes from Mr. Fox to his troubled brethren. AU their lives the iron and steel masters of Great Britain have been expecting to see the collapse of protection in the United States. Some Cox or other has always been telling them that when protection should be abandoned and free trade ushered in they would find In the United States the bonanza mar­ ket so long sought and so sorely needed. It is always going to happen, but it never does happen, except when free trade temporarily dominates our economic policy. Somehow the “arti­ ficial” condition seems to hold its own under proper conditions. It has so in­ variably held its own under the protec­ tion poUcy that it has ceased to bo re­ garded as “artificial.” Our people have come to look upon it as perfectly nat­ ural and normal. Always excepting the domestic free traders and the uneasy tariff reform­ ers, Americans have very generally come to the conclusion that if anybody is to get rich out of the American mar­ ket it had best be Americans. They arc likely to adhere to that conclusion so long as the wages paid to American workers in iron and steel are sixty to eighty-five per cent, higher than the wages paid in Europe. With high wages have come high consuming ca­ pacity and a high standard of living— elements indispensable to prosperity. If the British iron masters choose to regard our present prosperity as “ar­ tificial” let them hug that fond delu­ sion ais much as they like. Americans know better. They know that the only natural, normal, enduring pros­ perity they have ever known has come and will continue to come under pro­ tection. Bonncl to EicTr Anyway- It seems pretty hard work to please a free trader. He wants foreign goads to come in, and yet holds up his hands in horror at our billion doliars’ worth of imparts and says protection is a failure. He must be simply mad clean through because we can afford to pay the billipn and still have twenty tc thirty lfillion more to spend at home, and put aside something for the rainy day. VVIiere They Belong. It may be said once for all that no Interest and ho section can get favors In tariff making except by conceding them to other interests and other sec­ tions, which will be the end of protec­ tion. If any so-called Republicans arc dissatisfied'with protection as it notv exists in the United States let them go over to the Democrats, Where they be­ long.

' Indeed, some ‘have gone the length to state that straw­ berries may not only be taken with impunity by the rheumatic and gouty, but with a distinct advantage, if not relief. It Is a somewhat curious co­ incidence, therefore, that In the strawberry the presence of salicylic acid, which is a specific In acute rheu­ matism, has been definitely estab­ lished. As a matter of fact, salicylic acid would appear to be a normal constituent of most fruits. At any rate, this acid has been found not only In the strawberry, but in grapes, ap­ples, plums, oranges and cherries, al­ though the amount is probably less than one milligramme (one sixty- fourth of^a grain) per kilogramme (two pounds) of fruit. ' It is hardly possible, therefore, that the straw­ berry should have any specific medi­ cinal effect attributable to the salicy­ lic acid present. A few weeks back there was record­ ed in our columns a formidable case of sprue in which strawberries in the diet appeared ta act as a specific In the disease. As is well-known, most fruits possess anti-scorbutic proper­ ties and contain salts which readily become converted into carbonates in the system, tihus tending to maintain an alkaline condition and preventing the formation of acid deposits. The fact, however, that salicylic acid ex­ ists normally in fruits is of interest in connection with the use of salicy­ lic acid as a preservative in jams. It is possible that some magistrates may regard this natural occurrence of the acid in fruits as a plausible defence In those cases in which proceedings are taken for the addition of small quan­ tities of tilre preservative.—The Lan- Hard Life of Indian Women. ’ The Labrador Indians when on a hunt stalk on in advance of the train with their aims, while the women, heavily laden with provisions and means of shelter, drag along slowly after. When the lords and masters begin to think of food time or wish in any way to leave some guide as to their progress for the squaws they thrust an upright spear or stick in the snow and draw In the snow the exact line of the shadow then cast. The jvomen, toiling painfully along, note the spear and the progress of the shadow and , know closely the difference of time. They know, too, whether they dare to linger for a few minutes’ rest or if they must hastily catch the stick or spear and hurry on. Danger in Delay. Dr. James M. Buckley, editor of the Christian Advocate, is a great favorite with the young men in the Methodist denomination. Often he admonishes them along interesting uues.

The relation of woman’s nerves and generative organs is very close; consequently nine tenths of the nervous prostration, nervous despondency, “the blues,” sleeplessness, and nervous irritability of women arise from some derangement of the organism which makes her a woman. Herein we prove conclusively that Lytlia E. Pinkbam’s Vegetable Compound will quickly relieve all this trouble. Details of a Severe Case Cured in Eau Claire, Wis. “ Dkar Mrs. Pinkiiam:—I have been ailing from female trouble for the past five years. About a month ago I was taken with nervous prostra­tion, accompanied at certain times before menstruation with fearful head­aches. ‘I read one of your books, and finding many testimonials of the bene­ficial effects of Uydia E. Pinkham ’s Vegetalble Compound, experi­enced by lady sufferers, I commenced its use and am happy to state that after using- a few bottles I feel like a new woman, aches and pains all gone.“ I am recommending your medicine to many of my friends, and I assure you that you have my hearty thanks for your valuable preparation which has done so much good. I“ rust all suffering women will use vour Vegetable Com­ pound.”—M bs. Minnie Tietz, 020 First Ave., Eau Claire, Wis. (May 28, 1901). Nothing1 will relieve this distressing condition so surely as Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Gomponnd; it soothes, strengthens, heals and tones rap the delicate female organism. It is a positive cure for all kinds of female complaintsthat bearing dowft feeling, back­ache, displacement of the womb, inflammation of the ovaries, and is invaluable during the change of life, all of which may help to cause nervous prostration.

I began to take Uydia E. Pinkliam ’s Vegetable Cosiipound and was soon feeling like a new woman. I cannot praise it too highly. It does all that it is recommended to do, and more.“ I hope that every one who suffers as I did will give Lydia E. PinkhamfS . remedies a trial.”—Mbs. Mabie Bay , Eleanora, Pa. (March 25,1901.)

The Madrid Imparcial takes the Spanish government severely to task for announcing a reduction of $40,0 OO in the budget of 1904 for public edu­cation. Thi3 reduces the total appro­ priation for this purpose to $7,000,000. The Imparcial asserts that the coun­ try is already so backward in educa­ tion and means of culture • that all hope of progress has almost disap­ peared. For this reason the paper says that the appropriation for schools should be greater than that for any other purpose.

It is the dpsire of the board to appiout good, moral men who are interest­ ed in the education of the child- ,i-en of the County. It is not reas­ onable to presume that the mem­ bers of the Board k now the wants and needs of the various districts of the County7; neither can they make judicious selections for Com­ mitteemen without some assistance Therefore, we request the members of each district to meet together get the expressions of opinions, and make suitable recommenda­ tions: also their needs and wants kuown. The Board is in favor with t.he movement now progressing in differeut parts of the State for lar­ ger districts, and better school houses. Theie are some districts in the County the census report number thirty children, a good many un­ der fifty. TheBoard think it best for the children, and respectfully recommend that small distiicts be consolidated, unless prevented by natural obstructions. The Board will have to fix a maximum salary for the teachers in various schools. The children on census report will be a gnide in directing the salary paid the -teachers-: Committeemen of small districts who oppose consolidation will have to employ teachers at small salaries The inability of officers to subscrif be to affidavits that have to occoin- pany the applications will preclude many of their small districts from receiving'State aid. The Board requests the co-oper­ ation of all who favor a movement calculated to .give the children better school facilities. Nj A. F esb i.es, Chairman B. E. " “ Mrs'.

J ournal. onaecounc of Lincoln’s election. Not long ago the director of the Mississippi Historical society, wrote a letter to Hon. Robert T. Lincoln, from which the following is an extract: 1Weof the south now realize the greatness and grandness and goodness of the character ot Presi­ dent Lincoln, aud would honor his memory. Permit me in the name of the state to invite you to invite yon to place a portrait of President Lincoln in the new capi­ tal of Mississippi, that it may symboblizc his love for his country his devotion to duty, aud his heart telt sympathy' for the Southern people.” Of course the portrait was fur­ nished as requested, aud in the future it will hang with the por­ traits of other, notable men, and bear testimony to the high regard iu which Abraham Lincoln is held in the state in which Jefferson Davis had his home aud which did all it could to honor the leader of the secession movement. No evi dence is needed to show the entire reconciliation of the men who fought each other so. valiantly for four long, sad, blooilly years; but if such evidence were wanting, this incident here mentioned would be of a convincing character. In the days of strife and hot passion, especially at the outbreak of hostilities, to have said a word iu praise of Abraham Liucifin in- any part of the state, would been as much as the life of the one who said it was worth; but uow, a-gen- eiatiou away from the strife of the civil war, Mississipians honor the union war President by placing his portrait in a hall in their state capital, and bear willing testimony to his great virtures. - It is an event of uo small mome­ nt, and it will do much towards cementing the ties that should bind the people of the sections of G ET A B O A R D T H E F I R S T TRAIN FOR SALISBURY, N.

Winston Tobacco Figures, Winston-Salem, SpeciaL-The total quantity of manufactured tobacco pro­ duced in this city during January, February, March, April, May and June, of this .year, was 12,862,953 pcunds, an increase for the period of 1903 of 633,358 pounds. The stamp sales at the revenue office for June ag­ gregated $151,712.61, divided as fol­ lows: For tobacco, $130,735,59; for spirits, $20,903.52.

However, with the primings of the new crop, the sales this year will pass the 20,000,000 mark. Toxaway Receivershp.l Asheville, Special.—C. W. R. Bade- mer and wife and G. T. Pryor, in be­half ct Ihtnselv & and all other stock­holders and creditors of the Toyaway Company, instituted proceedings against the Toxaway Company and J. Frank Hays, manager, praviag that Icrapcnj receiver be ap^-Jnted for the To:;away Company uucil July 8, o»i wn.'ch date the defendant? should ap pear and show cause why a permanent rid vcr should not be appointed. This ccinyiaint was filed on nce-nwit of U having been alleged that the stock­holders holding the controlling in­terest worked adversely to the in­ terest of smaller shareholders. The proceedings were stopped ^and the re ceiver discharged when a certified check for the amount of estimated damage was given the complainants. Attempted Suicide. Asheville^ Special—Oliver Giddon, a highly respected, though eccentric, citizen of the northern section of this city, drank laudanum with suicidal in­ tent, Thursday afternoon. The circum­stances which led Mr. Gibbon to this act of attempted self-destruction are extraordinary. It appears that he, to­gether with Mrs, Giddon and a half- dozen neighbors, were summoned to the police court during the forenoon to give testimony concerning the con­duct of boys who were arrested on the charge of crying out and throwing stones into the yards and sometimes into the houses of people who lived in the vicinity of East and Seney streets. During the examination of witnesses Mrs. Giddon was called to the stand and was closely cross-ex­amined by the attorney representing the young defendants. Mrs. Giddon had never been in court before and the ordeal proved very embarassing for her and her husband. Mr. Giddon, who suffers from nervous disease, brooded much over this experience and the annoyance he had suffered from some of the boys of the neighbor­ hood and sought to end his trouble at once. He drank a full ounce bottle of the drug and for a time it seemed that he could not recover, but physicians stated later that he had an even chance of recovery. North State Notes.

Fayetteville, Special.—At Hope Mills in Cumberland county, a heavy pack­age of machinery fell on Barney Autry a wagon driver, crushing in his skull’ killing him almost instantly. A good deal has been said recently aoout the attitude of the Internal Rev­ enue Department with reference to the operation of the Watts law, and the impression has obtained in some in­stances that conflict might result be­tween the State and Federal authori­ties as a result of the operation of the new law. The Federal government has no desire or disposition to interefere with the operation of the Watts law The man who violates its provisions will receive no comfort from that source. It was explained today that the Federal government does not license saloons and distilleries. The State exercises that function and au­thorizes them to do business. The govermnent goes no further W a ‘i x ™ such institutions. The State does the licensing in the lit­eral sense of the word.

Marshall, of Gastonia, called to der the thirty-first annual convention of the North Carolina Press Associa­ tion in the assembly room of the Sea­ shore Hotel at Wrightsville Beach 11 o’clock Wednesday morning. The attendance is not so large as usual, but the editors there and their friends appear to be enjoying the outing the beach very much. The welcome address In behalf of the chamber of commerce upon the invitation of which the convention is here this year was made by Iredell Meares. Esq. patriotic and very cordial response was made by R. F. Beasley, of The Monroe Journal. The devotional exer­ cises were by Rev. P. R. Law, of The Lumberton Robesonian.

There was a conference at the Gov­ ernor’s office regarding ways and means of raising money by private subscription for an exhibit at the St. Louis Exposition. Present, Governor Aycock, Hugh Chatham, of Elkin; L. Banks Holt, of Graham; Robert N. Page, of Biscoe; Garland E. Webb, of Winston; J. G. Hackett, of Wilkesboro; J. J. Thomas and F. B. ArndelI1 of Ral­ eigh. It was the sense of the meeting that $50,000 ought thus to be raised. It was shown that there are 6,000 indus­ trial plants in North Carolina, the an­ nual output being worth $00,000,000. The only question In the minds of the gentlemen who attended this confer­ence with the Governor is whether 250 manufacturers shall be asked to give $200 each and also make exhibits or whether 100 shall be asked to give $200 each and also make exhibits or whether 100 shall be asked to give $500 each and make exhibits. It was decided to put an agent in the field to canvass the Slate and raise the $50,000 needed. There is a determination on the part of al Ito make the great exhibit at St. Louis. It is learned that large sums are promised by manufacturers at various places in the State. The Governor re­ceived today letters from D. A. Tomp­ kins, of Charlotte; J. W. Grainger, of Kinston; J. A, Long, 6f Roxboro, and Northan O’Berry, of Goldsboro, regret ting their inability to be present, and pledging their hearty aid in every way. VaIuabIeGald Deposit. Salisbury, Special.—Mr. Frank -H. Mawney, of Gold Hill, a mining man of many years’ experience and one of the leading citizen of the community In which he lives, said 'regarding the rich strike recently made Sy the Whitney Reduction Company at the Barringer mine, that he believed it to be by far the greatest ever made in a Southern State. He was convinced that large bodies of the ore are worth as high Ss $50,000 a ton and that half a million dollars is now immediately in sight. Mr. Mauney would not hazard an opin­ion as to the continued yield of the vein beyond this point, but said that it might be immense, He was greatly impressed by the presence in the ore Cf masses of nearly pure, gold larger than a man’s fist, !!!specially because the Whitney people do not court pub­licity rr care about issuing Statements. . Wednesday afternoon the two-foot vein which yields this extremly rich ore was struck by a second level from the paralel shaft at a depth of slightly more than 100 feet, all the indications for a much greater depth continuing good. The vein was first struck at a depth of 35 feet. A Destructive Fire. Raleigh, Special.—Greenville, N. C., is on fire. The flames started at a quarter to I o’clock and the fire is now under full headway. No corcct esti­mate can be made of the losses, but it is believed that they are already about $200,000. The fire started Ift ft small restaurant and the buildings al­ ready consumed are the market house. Farmers’ warehouse. Gorman & Wrights’ tobacco factory, Jordan’s tobacco factory, residences of Mrs. Nellie Harris, Zeno Moore and sev­eral smaller buildings. The heat is so intense that the fire department - can­not cope with the flames. There is, be­sides, no adequate water system of water works. At this hour the Chris­tian church and King’s Hotel are threatened with destruction. At 2i30 the fire was under control.

Washing­ ton, head of the Tuskeegee Institute, Thursday night delivered an- address. He said that recent regrettable events in connection with'the race question went to show that lynch law is not confined to any one section of the country. Those events, he said, lead to sympathy with the race problem by making it national. Ho appealed to the negro to be calm and exercise self-control. Among the other speakers was W. H. Lewis, assistant district attorney of Massachusetts, who was appointed several months ago by President Roosevelt. Principal Washington said in part: “In the present season of anxiety and almost of despair which possesses an element of the race there are two things I wish to say as strongly as I may: “First, let no man of the race be­ come discouraged or hopeless. There are In this country, North and Boiith, men who mean to see that justice is meted out to the race. Such a man is Judge Jones, of Alabama, to whom more credit should be given for blot­ ting out the infamous system of peon­ age than to any other man, “Second, let us keep before'iis.the fact that, almost without exception every race or nation that has ever got upon its feet has done so through Struggle and trial and persecution, “No Ohe Should seek to close his eyes to the fact that the race Is pass­ ing through a very serious and trying period of its development, a period that calls for the ilse of our ripest thought afid sober judgment. “Let nothing lead us into extremes of utterance or action. It is in the long run the race or the individual that exercises the most patience, for, bfearaiice find seii-C&ntrol In the midst of trying conditions that wins its cause. Let nothing induce us to de­ scend to the level of the mob. In ad­ vocating this policy I am not asking that the negro act the coward! Wd are not cowards, The part we have piayed to defending the flag of OUr Country is sufficient evidence Of our courage.“The outbreak of the mob em­phasizes two lessons, One for Oiir faCg and ottb for the other citizens of Oiir Country, South and North; for it is tb be noted that the work of the lyncher is not confined to one section of the country. The lesson for us is that we should see to it that so far as the influence of parent, school or pul­ pit is concerned, no effort be spared to impress on our own people that idleness and crime should cease. We should let the world know on all proper occasions that we consider no legal punishment too severe, for the wretch of any race Who attempts to outrage a woman, “The.lesson for the other portion of the nation to learn is that both in ,the making and. in the execution the same iaws should be. made to apply to the Uegfo as the white mail. “There should be meted out equal justice to the black man and the white man. Whenever the nation for­gets, or is tempted to forget, Its basic principle, the whole fabric of govern­ ment for both the white man and the “lack man is threatened with destruc­tion. This is true whether it relates to conditions in Texas, lfidiaha or Delaware, it is with a nation as with an individual; Whatever we sow, that shall we also reap. If we sow crime we shall reap lawlessness.” Traffic Manager Resigns. New Orleans, Special.—S. F. B.

Washington, Special1-The State De- patment has authorized the following Statement! “At the State Department it was stated, by a high official in the absence of Secretary Hay that the delay ill for­ warding the petition of the American citizens of the Jewish faith as to the iil-treament of their co-religionists in Russia was due solely to the delay in furnishing the address to the State De­partment by the petitioners. The State Department would, of course, -pay no heed to any statement purporting to emanate from the RuSian government unless Such statements were made of­ficially, in some form Or other, tb our own government. The State Depart­ment has been scrupulously'careful to act only in accordance with all the re­quirements of official propriety, but within the limits thus laid down it will most Certainly not hesitate to give ex­pression to the deep sympathy felt not only by the administration, but by all the American people, for the unfortu­ nate JSws Who have bfeen the Vicitims in the recent appalling massacres and outrages. In this connection, it was pointed out by another official who disclaimed any purpose to speak in his official capacity, however, that it Seem­ed Somewhat strange, to say the least, that the Russian government Should choose this parcitcular method Of mak­ ing a statement to the American people at the very time when by methods Which are certainly the reverse of friendly to the United States, it has sought to make China join id breaking the PIiglited faith Of all the powers as to the open door in Manchuria, and has endeavored to bar our people from ac­cess to the Manchurian trade.”The above Statement was shown to Count Cassini, the Russian ambassa­ dor, but he declined to make any com­ment on it. Any reply to this statement must be made under direct instructions from St. Petersburg. It is realized; both at the State Department and the Russian em­ bassy, that the situation is extremely delicate. Lynching at Norway S1 C, Columbia, Special,—Thor6 was a lynching in Norway Tuesday night, and Charlie Evans, a negro, who was charged with attempting to assassinate Mr, Phillips and daughter en Sunday iiight, was hanged and his body rid­ dled with bullets. He and three other negroes had been arrested and placed in the town guard house and a guard stationed around it. The mefi were overpowered by a mob, said to have been composed of “unknown parties,” and the three were taken into the woods near the town. Pink Hartwell, tJ. S. JohnStOfi and John Felder, who had been arrested with Evans, were released, it being shown that they had nothing to do with the crime. Erans was strufig up and afterwards shot Mr, Phillips was shot while sitting down to Supper, blit he Was not dead. Shots from the gun entered his shoul­ der and his lung, and one penetrated his brain, and it is said that there is absolutely no IiOpe for bird. HiS daugh­ ter also received a wound in the head, but it was not fatal. Elvans was a most desperate negro and the people were more infuriated than they would otherwise have been on account of his previous desperate criminal acts, GOVERNOR HEYWARD TAKES AC­ TION. The one at Norway was the first lynching in Governor Heyward’S ad­ ministration and he very promptly wired Sheriff Dukes and Coroner Rick- enbacker, of Orangeburg county, to take all steps to get at the identity of the lynchers and bring them to prose­ cution. He also wired the sheriff and the magistrate at Norway to take all precautions to protect the iives of any ether negroes under arrest and to send them under armed guard to Orange­ burg jail.

Hanna, Wyo., Special—Hanna was the scene of a terrible disaster at 10:30 a. in,, when an explosion of fire damp in mine No, I, of the Union Pa­ cific Coal Company snuffed out the lives of 234 men, injured scores of Others and caused the destruction .of a vast amount of property. The mine •was not fired, as Was stated in the earlier reports, but the explosion was terrific and completely shattered the timber of the main shaft and num­ erous entrances, filling the warning with debrig, and those of the miners that were not killed outright by the explosion were buried alive. The expi8siofi Was heard for many miles around and attracted people from the adjoining settlements. Huge timbers and railroad iron were hurled 300 feet from the mouth Of the shaft. Superintendent S, S, Brooks and a large force Of mett began the work of removing the debris from thd shaft that they might reach the entombed miners, Their progress into the mine ‘was biocked by the foiii gases and several times they were forced to re­turn to the surface. AU day the rescu- ing party Worked,- the fore© being in* creased from time to timfi by the ar­ rival of ranchmen and others from nearby settlements and by those of a relief train, sent out from Rawlins, which reached herd at 2 o’clock in the afternoon.About I o’clock p. m. four men were taken out alive and a half hour later they were followed by. 42 others. Many were unconscious and had tfi tie. car­ried from the workings. Several are IU a serious condition, but it is be­ lieved ail Will recover.Two hundred afid eighty-two men went down in the mine at 7 o’clock Tuesday morning and up to a late hour only 48 have been accounted for. Of this ilUlhber two are dead. It was some time after tb§ GxfilbSion oc­curred that the first man was brought to the surface. He was followed by others until I o’clock, when the last of the 48 was. brought out. The rescu­ers were iinabie to pfifletrate further into the mine as it was nScessary to make another opening to permit fresh air to reach the lower levels. Horses and scrapers were put at work hauling debris away from tbe shaft. The work is progressing slow­ ly, owing to the narrow space in which thdKrescuers are compelled to operate, blit by daylight the mine should be open sufficiently to permit of deep explorations and the rescue of the dead bodies. Late at night a party of rescuers reached four mules that werg alivfi hua. this caused renewed hope. It is a faint hope, Bfiweveri for experienced mine bosses and miners say that when the imprisoned men Ire reached all will be found dead. Some of the miners who escaped said they saw 20 dead bfidieS iii entry No. 17. They reported that many of the men were crazed by the explosion and ran hither and thither in the mine. Many of these could have escaped, but they lay down, buried their faces In their hands and gave iip the fight. Of the 234 dead about i75 were married ind leave large families. About 100 were Finlanders, 50 were colored and the rest were Americans.The Hanna mines are among the best on the Union Pacific system, be­ ing established ill 1878, The town was named for Senator Mark Hanna when he was a member of the Union Pacific Coal Company. Mine No. I is practically a new property. It has 26 entries, 15 miles of workings and a main incline shaft of one and one- half miles in length. The mine has been recognized as dangerous property for some time on account of the large amount of gas, but the system of ven­tilation has been so good that an ac­ cident was not anticipated.

NEVER TRADE HORSES WHILE CROSSING A STREAM, YASirFT ,1 ItEFDRM WILL IT BE CLEVELAND* ONCE MORE TALKED ABOUT AS A CANDIDATE. He Inflicted Upon Country Stere ol F in an cial Loss and Orealer Snfierinn Wiian That Which Kcsultefl From the g? War Between tbe States. The American Economist does not Often concern itself with a discussion of the merits of an improbable, much less an impossible, Presidential candi­ date. However, both the improbable and impossible sometimes happen, and as no one man in our history kas a hiorfl disastrous influence upon our in­ dustrial life than the subject of this sketch, we propose Simply to remind our readers of Grover Cleveland’s con, tribittiOn to his country’s history, and what he would do again, if placed In a position to accomplish his purpose, which, we may add, was not f’’Jly ac­ complished in the first instance. . It was decided iii IfiSd that a man's domestic faults need not affect hig pub­ lic career and executive ability. Hr, Cleveland Was elected in that year In spite of his shortcoming* as a man, and because of his good fortune as a poli­ tician. He was elected not because of his otVfi strength, but because of tbe weakness of his opponent’s campaign and the lack of complete harmony In his opponent’s party. His first administration lias left noth- Ing worth remembering, except his message to the Fiftieth Congress in De­ cember, 1887. Mr. Cleveland had Stud­ ied his Cobden Club literature well, and Stated precisely, If not honestly, some of their ibfiSt important tenets. The message was devoted almost whol­ ly to the tariff and taxation, and Its several thousand words can be put into two fif its senteuces as indicating, the tenor of the wiioic, These two sen­ tences follow:“But- our present tariff laws, the vicious, ificdfiitahla and illogical source of unnecessary taxation, ought to be at once revised and amended. These Iawsi as their primary and plain effect, raise the price to consumers oh all arti­ cles imported aiid subject to duty by precisely the sum paid for SUcb duties. . So it happens that While coinpttl’tttively a few use the imported articles, million* of our people, who never use and never saw any of the foreign products, purchase afid use things of the same kind made in this country, and pay, therefore, nearly or quite the same enhanced price which the duty adds to the imported article.” These are false Statements, and Mr. Cleveland knew them to be false, for he could have gone into the open mar­ ket and bought hundreds of articles at a less price than the duty on similar Imported articles of no better quality. His message defeated him for re-elec­ tion, and a Republican Congress and President thought best to revise the tariff, and the McKinley law was the result. The effects of that law were marvelous. In May, 1892, Edward At­ kinson, the noted statistician and free trader, who was In full possession of his mental faculties at that time, said in the Forum: “There never has been a period in the history of this or any other country when the general rate of wages was as high as it is now, or the prices of goods relative to the wages as low as they are to-day, nor a period when the workman, in the strict sense of the word, has so fully secured to his own use and enjoyment such a steadily and progressively increasing proportion of a constantly increasing product.” Such testimony was repeated by the commercial agencies, by the President in his message to Congress, and by the whole honest press. of the country. And yet Grover Cleveland was again nominated, and, adopting the double dealing tactics of Polk and Dallas In 1844, was elected by a very positive popular and electoral vote. We have not to do now with the methods of that campaign, but with the result. For the first time since the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1SG0 the three branches of. the Government were to be in the hands of the Democratic, free trade party. The very moment that the peo­ ple, and particularly the commercial world, realized this there w-as constera- tion In every industrial and financial circle. Wise capitalists, shrewd manu­ facturers and cautious merchants knew what was before them. That grim specter, sure to materialize into that evil monster, free trade, which had more than once devastated our land and impoverished our people, was bound to come. It mattered not just how soon, or in just what form; we must prepare for it as best we could and take the consequences—and we did. It was not as bad as Mr. Cleveland would Jiave had it. Mad clean through! he would not sign his party’s laws. But that Gorman-Wilson tariff did its work most effectively, and completed the panic and ruinous work begun in anticipation. . Is there need to recall those awful years? Is there need to repeat the billions of dollars lost, the suffering, the sickness, the sadness that entered almost every home in tlie land? We are loyal and patriotic enough to add our plaudits to those of the multi­ tude whenbhecring an ex-President of the United States. We are willing to blur our memory, to wipe off the slate -and says “.Well, In the light of latet events, perhaps it was al! for the best. We need adversity once in a while; we must learn by experience.” And so wo find no fault in the hearty greeting ancl acclaim given to our rapidly ageing ex. President; but when the mugwump and free trader and politician step in and turn patriotism into politics we say No; never again must Grover Cleveland be ill power and gain the opportunity to conspire and ruin our country. Once is enough, and though we may condone we must not forget. Far more than the Civil War did Grover Cleveland cost our country in financial loss. More lives were sacrificed through sickness and sorrow, through despair and pov­ erty, through hunger and cold, than by the bullets of the Rebellion. If free traders, if mugwumps, if Democrats do not forget, then the peo­ ple must remember for them. Grover Cleveland must never bo ITesidont again. He should never even be a can­ didate, and he ought not to be so rnuclt as thought of in that respect. A FABLE. .!___; Wlie Feneo Work* Well and (lie Food Grows !letter. BX BIiI PEHKINS. A half starved, unprotected English jackass was grazing on short grass and thistles by the roadside when lie looked" np and saw a fat American horse grazing on clover protected by a kigli fence, and said to him; “My American friend, please carry out the ‘Iowa idea’ and take down your fence and let me come in and help you eat down your surplus.” “This surplus of clover don’t bother me as much as a deficit .would." said the American horse. “I guess I will keep the fence up.” “But let us have free trade and reci­ procity,” said the British ass, “you arc free to come over and browse on this road. Let me try your clover." “There wouldn’t be much reciprocity iii trading clover for thirties,” said the horse. “I will keep the meadow and you can have the liill side, unless you pay me something to come in.” "But a few more feeders would stim­ ulate business and ” “Yes, when the feed gets short,” in­ terrupted the horse, as he slyly winked one eye. “Bat all the world feeds on this pub­ lic highw-ay,” whined the poor jackass, “and don’t you see I’m starving for some of your clover?” “Starve away,” said the American horse, “the fence works well and my feed grows better every year. I can stand the suprius.” And he went on cramming himself with clover while the poor free trade ass starved to death on thistles.

It always pays to make coops sub­ stantial and keeping tile comfort oi the mother lien in view. To do this the coop should be of a fairly good size so that the old hen -will have a chance to move about. The illustration shows a large coop built especially for a hen turkey and her brood, but quite suited to other kinds of poultry. The founda­ tion of this eoop was a dry goods box, the roof was cut so that it slanted a little and -was then covered with tar paper to shed the rain. A. tight board floor should be made in the coop, and it should be slightly elevated, which will prevent dampness, always fatal to young turks and chicks. Ventilation is provided by a hole cut in the top of the coop; this hole is covered, when desired, by a piece of board held In place by a screw. A novel feature of the coop consists of three removable doors, which are hinged to the coop as occasion requires, using the sort of liinges on "which bliuds are hung, so that one door may be taken off and another put oa in a minute. For wet weather, the glass door, made like a cellar window, is put in place (see cut) and Iceeps the b.rood warm and dry. For ciear, cold days, but dry, the turks are kept in the coop by tile wire door. At night ail is made secure by the solid board door. AVben this door and the one of glass is used, the ventilator must be left wide open. Such a coop costs but little and is entirely satis­ factory. Suntltern Tobacco. The Xew Orleans Picayune’s Wasl'- ington correspondent writes as fol­ lows: The chemists of the Department of Agriculture, who have been analyzing with infinite pains the samples of soil sent to the Departmant from the Mis­ sissippi Delta and other gulf territory, by making comparisons with soil from Cuba and Porto Eico which they re­ cently tested, have made the discov­ ery that the South will grow as fine and as fragrant tobacco as any which comes from Cuba, Summatra or else­ where. Secretary Wilson, on his re­ cent trip South, made some investiga­ tions in the cheap tobacco districts of Tennessee and SIississippi, that he might ascertain what would be needed to improve the soil for better crops, and he had samples sent to Washing­ ton for examination. While the ex­ perts have not concluded their work, and have not prepared formal reports, the Secretary is well pleased with their findings. “We have been giving our attention to the production of high-class tobacco for some time,” said Secretary Wilson to-day, “our purpose being to raise the quality of the product all over the country. It was for this I went South. I visited all of the tobacco counties around Nashville and then went to Mississippi. A poor grade of tobacco is the usual crop there. I learned the soil is such that the quality can be improved, and the Department has the matter in hand. The experts have the soil brought back, and they will be able to report upon it before long. We have found it almost as easy to raise a crop of high-class tobacco as the cheaper grade, and the growers ■will get much better prices.” ~.y Chickens KpecI Meal* There is 110 doubt that a moderate amount of animal food is needed by poultry. In Farm Poultry, edited by J. H. Bailey, the author says: Poultry men find it to their advantage to imitate the natural food of the f-owls and tq, furnish some meat food. Fowls that have a wide range in the summer time feed largely on insects and earth "worms: but during the winter months and when fowls are confined in com­ paratively small bouses and yards, it will be best to feed meat in some form.Vegetable foods, even though fur­ nishing equal amounts of all nutrients and in the proportion considered suit­ able, are much inferior to animal foods furnishing the same amounts of nu­ trients and in the same proportions. Fresh bones, which may be obtained from meat markets, if finely cut with bone cutters, make one of the best, if not the best, of meat foods for laying hens. This Is also excellent for little chick­ ens. Many poultrymen cannot depend upon the local meat markets for their Supply, particularly during the warm weather. After the bones have be­ come tainted, they should be rejected as unfit for poultry food. When fresh bones cannot be obtained, animal meat may be l-elied on for satisfactory re­sults. Only meal that is guaranteed whole­some should be procured. A good qflality will generally contain about ten per cent, of nitrogen. This meal should be dry enough to keep well for several seasons if necessary. Vralt Tree Borers. Though the peach, quince and apple trees are the most frequently attacked by the borer, other fruit trees are not exempt from attacks. For something near a century mauy "ways Iiave been spoken of for holding the borer in check. Washes of different kinds have been advocated. Enclosing the trunk with Tvire netting has been tried. Wrapping the trunk with greasy or tarred paper is favored by some. A number of more or less similar plans are used. These methods have the ap­ pearance of doing the work in a whole­ sale way, while punching the life out of the borers seems slow and tedious; yet the last plan is probably not sur­ passed in the quickness with -which the borers can be disposed of or in the thoroughness of the work. It will require that the orchard is gone over carefully twice a year, in June and September, to kill the borer. It hatches from an egg deposited on the tniok about an ineli under ground as a usual thing. Look for the grub at this place, since it first enters the tree here. A June search will ShoVvr it barely in the tree. A narrow knife blade or a stiff wire will put it out of business for good. A September search should be made, to. destroy the grubs that iiave made a start since the June search. The orchardist can be sure be is doing nothing that will injure the trees when he uses this plan, which he is not so sure of when some of the other plans are used. A Suiall Barn !For a Southern Farw. G. B. C., Williamsburg, Va., writes: ‘I should like to have you suggest a plan for a barn suitable for taking care of sis horses, two cows and a good-sized bos stall to accommodate another team if necessary. I should also like a little room in the bam for storing machinery, but would not care to have the barn made much larger on that account, as it would probably pay better to store the machinery In a shed or lean-to adjoining.” The plan shows a barn thirty-two by forty-eight feet with posts sixteen feet apart; it has a central alley through which stock find access to their stalls and in which horses are harnessed and cleaned. I would suggest that the cows be dehorned or this arrangement would prove unsafe. The horse stalls are put three to sixteen feet, giving a good width; the cow stalls four feet wide, sufficient for large cows; the box is twelve hy sixteen feet; the harness room eight by twelve feet and a room for storage twelve by twenty-four feet.

Build the frame of joist construc­ tion, posts eighteen feet, self-support­ ing roof; make ail large doors slide on “stay-on” hinges ■ and track; an earthen floor will serve admirably, hav­ ing it a foot above the adjoining ground; a manure-carrier running on the overhead track would be a con­ venience; bins for grain should be in the Joft and filled through the door into the loft at the end, where hay also is put in. This will prove a de­ sirable type of small barn.—Joseph E. Wing, in the Breeder’s Gazette. IaIant Potatoes. This is an important crop. Sweet potatoes are growing in public esteem every year, and hence they are becom­ ing more valuable. They are well worth growing for cattle and hogs. Having a high per cent, of starch and sugar, they are very helpful in fatten­ ing cattle and hogs. Poultry are very fond of them when cooked. But we wish to say that bogs should never be allowed to root for them when tlie ground is wet. This is very injurious to the soil. The same is true of goobers. Much harm is done for years to the soiL—Southern Cultivator. New* In Notes. The independent cigar factories have now entered into an agreement not to sell or lease their factories or brands.

They are forced to fast three days; then for twenty-four hours their food is salt fish, and they are not permitted to quench their thirst Recent observations have brought to light this interesting fact, that persons breathe less when they are concentrat­ ing their minds on study or work, and also when they are under the influence of depressing emotion. On the other band, we breathe more when exhilarat­ ed by pleasure and amusement. A section of cable in the Caribbean Sea was recently raised from 1350 fathoms of water, where it had lain for thirty years. Tests showed its core to be in perfect electrical"condition and the rubber insulator uninjured. A fear that sulphur from Iihe rubber might in- jure the copper wire had no founda­tion. The only ancient gold diggings yet discovered which are of sufficient mag­ nitude to be those of the Ophir of David and Solomon are those of the Zambesi region. The gold contributed by David alone to the building of the temple, being “3000 talents of the gold of Ophir,” would be in value • over $80,000,000. How vast are the waste plains of the earth may be seen from the fact that the great desert of Gobi, in China, would fill the entire Mississippi valley, from the Alleghanies to the Rockies. Upward of 300,000 square miles of Arabia are an uninhabitable waste, while the terrible Sahara is vast enough to cover the whole United States. A man has built a big business at Puget Sound, near Vancouver, as the result of a holiday excursion. Instead of loafing aimlessly he used his eyes, and, noticing a little fish which he took to be a sardine, had some tihu-ed, with the ultimate result that his establish­ ment has this year sent out 175,000 cases. And the market is not yet glut­ ted. There is still money to be made in this way. A Dublin (Ireland) workman has pro­ duced a novelty in the shape of a ket­ tle, cup, saucer and spoon made out of a farthing. He hammered the bronze coin till he had obtained a very thin sheet of metal, from which he fash­ ioned a complete and workable kettle, with a swing handle, removable lid, etc., together with a cup, saucer and spoon. He can boil water in the minia­ ture utensil and pour it through the spout. The weight of the kettle, cup, sancer and spoon is forty grains. The weight of a farthing is forty-eight grains. A very curious triumph has just been achieved by a Korean gardener; name­ ly, an armchair of natural growth; that is to say, formed of a vine which the gardener had bent or twisted so as to produce a chair. It it also studded with seeds of the glngko tree which had grown into the fiber of the vine. After the chair was fashioned in this way it was cut from the ground, dried, and polished until it resembled mahogany. It is three feet four inches high and twenty-five inches wide, and, owing to the hardness of the wood, weighs over one hundred pounds. A Frlnco’B Self-Effacement. The -world is beginning to realize the King. It took some time to do so. There were plenty of people who had grown so accustomed to the self-efface­ ment which the King had practised so long as Prince of Wales during the lifetime of his mother as to have.come to the conclusion that in.all the serious affairs of his kingdom the King would count for little. Mind you, there were some grounds for this assumption. It Is not generally known that this self- effacement was the result not merely of the prince’s own act and respect for his mother, but also of deliberate min­isterial act. Some time in the seven­ ties the question was raised whether, as the prince was practically perform­ ing all the ceremonial duties of royalty, he should not also share in some of its political responsibilities. One of the first things to be done if this question was decided in the . affirmative was to intrust to the prince a large amount of secret official knowledge—important Foreign Office despatches, for example —which up to that time were submit­ ted to the eyes of the Queen alone. It is scarcely credible, but I have every reason to believe it is true, that the Cabinet, after they had debated th? question very seriously, and very thor­ oughly, came to the conclusion that it would be a violation of constitutional usage to give the Prince of Wales this information. The King accepted the decision with the good sense which he always displays—a good sense-typical of the nation to whieli he so thorough­ ly belongs; and went on his way, con­ tent to be a spectator of the great drama going on immediately around him, and to be left to his own re­ sources fqr the gaining of knowledge of the secret springs and unavowed motives of great political events.—M. A. P. Show er o f McteoElo. D m t, A shower of meteoric- dust, like fine black sand, fell on Saturday evening from 10.05 to 10.08. The shower could be distinctly heard falling on the leaves of the trees. There was no wind and no clouds, and the moon and stars were shining clearly. Professor Joseph W .. Richards, of the department of mineralogy, and Profesor W. S. Frank­ lin, of the electrical department of Le- hifli University, were on the street at the time. The former detected the phenomenon, and on brushing his hat found several grains of the black, high­ ly magnetic dust. Since the area of the hat and brim was 112 square inches, It showed that the fall is three minutes was equal to nearly 8000 pounds on an area of a square ■ mile,—Bethlehem (Pa.)

One of the most enthusiastic base ball cranks in the country is a blind man, James Judge, of Minneapolis, a master steamfitter, successful-contrac­ tor and mechanical inventor of pro­ nounced ability.. He has been totally, sightless for forty years and never saw a base ball game in his life, but he never allows business to interfere when he wishes to “see” a contest on the diamond. Mr. Judge is always accom­ panied by someone who tells him of the various plays and he yells as loudly as anybody, even shouting “Down in front” when someone obstructs the view of those who can see. He is an inveterate smoker, too, thus disproving the oft-heard statement that one must see the smoke In order to enjoy a cigar.

Gardner Cr. Hubbard, the father- in-law and faithful fr.iend of Bell, was the man -who risked the most and gained the greatest rewards in backing Bell and the telephone- until it reached the stage where the public no longer derided the instrument as a plaything, but- clamored for it as a necessity. In the Marconi wireless telegraph there is a parallel of history, Joat now in the formative and construc­ tive period there are doubters and skeptics, but there are some faith­ ful friend?, and it ;s these friends and faithful ones who ire going to reap the fortunes that are bound to follow the general adoption of the wireless system. The great advantage of this- system over that using wires and cables 13 itj ex­ tremely low initial cost, which ie iieve- the company operating it of a large burden of iutCfest, taxes and depreciation, thus increasing its earning capacity many fold. Thoge who are' investing iu the stock of the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Co of America to-day are the ones who are certain to -.vir. great fortunes by the future increase iu value of those stocks, as well as through the dividends earned and paid, in the interim. Beil Telephone stock increased in value from Si .00 per share to be worth over Sl1OOO per share, and so-Marconi stocks will very likely increase from $4.00, the present price, to over $i,003 within a few years, Thus $80 invested now may become 820.000 within a de­ cade. It is by wise Investment such as these that the great for­ tunes of the big millionaires have been made. The Vanderbilts in railroads, the GonUls in telegraph and railroa !s, the Mackays in cables,- the Bockefeilcrb in Stand­ ard Oil, the Hubbards in telepho­ nes. The man who has a few Jiua- drcd dollars laid away to invest and who has the intelligence to grasp a fleeting opportunity will be the one to seize the JIarconi off­ ering and make his fortune. “The Weekly MarcoIligram,, is the name of a periodical devoted to the new wireless system, and its publishers, Messrs Munroe & Mu- nroe, 44-80 Exchange Place, Kew York, announce that it will be sent tree to all who apply for it. This firm is known as an aggre­ ssive enterprising combination of brilliant young financiers who have a successful creer behind them as a guarantee oi their future. They have agreed to keep the Marconi Oompaoy supplied with working capital until the system is thorou­ ghly established and-in full com­ mercial operation. They have is­ sued a handsome booklet' “Mar­ coni Wireless.” giving full parti­ culars concerning Marconi and his system, with 32 illustrations in half-tone, which they send free to persons likely io become interested as stockholders in the company. Mr. Georg3 H. Munroe, Kew York manager of the firm-, says: “.We are soliciting the investment of small amounts in Marconi se­ curities for the reason that we be­ lieve that the American people will welcome the establishment of this competing system, and because we know that.great-profits will ac­ crue to the investor from the de­ velopment of this marvelous in­ vention to a commercial stage. The company has, already, over a quarter of a million dollars inves­ ted in stations and apparatus in the United States, but it will re- quire lit least as mncn more before the business can be establ.aheO.i upon a -'highly -profitable batsijvj Ouce that is done the vtlae oi] Marconi securities ninst neaesarily I advance very rapidly, and those1 who buy now will in the course of a few years find themselves in' pos­ session of securities equally as profitable as Telephone, Western Union and Ooniniercial Oable have heretofore been. Ifanybody wants to know more about the opportu­ nities this system offers, let him write to us at 44-60 Exchange Place and we will be glad to give them.’’ Veteriiu Writes. Mr. Editor:—I am constrained to call upon you to give me a brief space in the columns of your paper to vindicate the Confederate sol­ dier in the recent city election. To onr great surprise our entire ninety-seven votes at this place were ! challenged aa disqualified votes* If this is true (and I feel certain that it is) what was the motive of challenge, when all vo­ ted at the election ratifying or re­ jecting the new constitution. The inmates here were disposed to pursue a neutrality policy, and did, a local election in which they did not wish in the least to disturb Every one of us is registered un­ der the grandfather clause with certificates of permanent registra­ tion and took and subscribed the prescribed oath by law in accord­ ance with section 4 aitiele 8 of the constitution of Korth Carolina. We were all called upon to vote to ratify or reject the new constitu­ tion, all eligible and qualified vo­ ters then. This very 'challenger wa3 bnsy with others to send fine vehicles wi*h negro drivers to our homes to haul out every man old and young and actually gave them tickets as soon as In the omnibus. There was no }>olities in the el­ ection. This challenger is a- won­ derful man especially in a prohi­ bition campaign. He has certainly lost his influence in the city, jud­ ging from the returns of this elee- lection, and I now advise him to turn IiiB attention to the above ti nest ion in the next campaign and endeavor to VOlE US AS HE OHOOSES. I also learn suggestions and pro­ positions were made to VOTE US one half on one side and one-half on tlie other, on the question of extension. Does HEthinkwe are all FOOLS or SHEEP at this home, to be led about with hooks in onr noses by Pornibition politicians? Does HE expect to place us in Egyptian bondage 430 years, and compel us to make brick without straw?

Evansville, Ind. — Following four days of rioting and general lawless­ ness, this city on the fourth night saw the most terrible of its experiences with rioters. Seven persons are dead and fourteen are known to he injured seriously with at least that number more thought to be hurt. , At 10.30 o’clock the members of Com­ pany A, Fii1St Regiment, Indiana Na­ tional Guard, after a day’s vigilance guarding the County Jail, and IOO Dep­uty Sheriffs, under Sheriff Chris. Kvat'/., tired point blank into a mob. of 1000 gathered on Fourth, Division and Vine streets, surrounding the Vandevbnrg County Jail, and attempting its capture. From 7 o’clock a. m. until the hour of the night’s catastrophe the crowd surged about the jail calling the mili­ tiamen vile names, assailing them with stones and berating the deputy sheriffs who guarded the jail., At 0 o’clock the mob gradually be­came more and more excited, its mani­festations of uneasiness more frequent, and at IO o’clock it was seen that noth­ing could prevent an assault on the jail. At 10.30 the rioters pressed slowly forward and innocent onlookers fol­lowed. Slowly they forced the militia­men back toward the jail, until the al­ley between Division street and the stone building was reached. Then the leaders, with a bicycle in their front as a shield to the bayonets of the soldiers, attemjited to enter the alley and storm the alleyway entrance. Cap­tain Blum, of the National Guard, or­ dered a charge on the rioters.: Gradually the crowd was forced back, the soldiers using their bayonets and butts of guns. Suddenly a rioter fell. A soldier tried to drag him to his feet, bnt before he could, was assaulted by a rioter. Stones and boulders began to fly through the air. A soldier urns •truck with a rock and fell. A rioter was knocked down with a gun butt and then a shot was fired. The one •hot started a fusillade of musketry and shotgun fire from defenders, i The dead are:Edward Seliiffman. painter: top of head blown off with rifle.. Hazel Allman, fifteen years old. daughter of Joseph H. Allman; shot in breast with shotgun, p John Barrett, shot in the right lung.August Jordan, nineteen, musician: bullet wound through heart.Edward Buie, twenty-three years old. laborer; shot through body and head: killed instantly.1 Two men lying in front of the jail.Fourteen other men were dangerous­ly wounded. Six other rioters were seen to fall, but got away before their names were learned. At least that number were suspected of being hurt. Four members of Company A, First Regiment, bullet and light gunshot wounds on the body; one of them shot through shoulder; another through the ankle and other two slight scratches.Two deputy sheriffs were slightly wounded ... ■ AU this time Robert Ede Brown, the negro whose life the lynchers were eager to take, was in jail at Vincennes. Hg shot and killed Foliceman Massey. As Massey lay on the pavement dying Iie raised himself on his elbow and sent ? trough the negro’s left lung, inflicting a fatal wound. . While the attack of the mob was not unexpected it was .supposed that assurances that Robert Brown, the col­ored murderer of Patrolman Massey, was not In the jail would again be ac­ cepted by the mob and that trouble would thus be avoided, but the mob refused to believe the Sheriff’s state­ments and advanced upon the jail with battoring-rams cut from telegraph pjies. • 1 r The inob. which had been hunting all the evening for a chance to vent its wrath on some negro, found one him”* U 30 P aDa promptly ]ync'hed ' The troops hurried to the scene and tried by argument and by threats to induce the rioters to permit the black man to go free. The mob would not listen, however, and its leaders de­clared there should be a lynching then and there. The members of the. mob clamored for the work to begin and despite all the efforts of the troops tfiework of hanging was commenced.• When the officers of the militia5Saw how determined the crowd was and that it would be impossible to save the negro they reluctantly ordered their men to prepare to shoot to kill.'■ The victim had been swung off when the firing actually began, and as soon as the soldiers shot into the mob its members returned the fire. The great number of casualties among the rioters rendered them furious. • The friends of the-.dead and injured paraded the streets and threatened to uurn the jail and the crowd increased. to 30,000 people, many of the women of Bles Trying to Save a Boy.

Everywhere throughout the city the tragedy caused the most intense feeling and many who had taken no part in the rioting armed themselves and ap> peared on the scene, swearing ven­geance against the men who fired with such deadly effect into the crowd.Oovernor Durbin was informed Of the killing of members of the mob by long­distance telephone and was implored to order ail additional militia company out, as it was feared that tlie sliootln; would so exasperate the citizens that the local company would not be able to master the situation.The Governor at once ordered the company at Vincennes and the com- pany at TeiTe Haute to go to Evans= ville. and special trains were hastily made Up at both places to trausport them.Notice that they were coming was re­ceived by the mob in some way almost at the time the orders were given and the train yards were taken possession of by members of the mob, and it was declared that neither company should enter the city,In the meantime thousands of people were parading the streets, condemning Sheriff Kratz and Capt. Blum 011 ac­count of the shooting, and doing every­thing to intensify a feeling which was already intense.Iu order to provide themselves with additional arms, the mob entered the hardware stores again, and took every­thing In the way of guns or missiles that could be found. Bonfires were lighted on the principal streets from boxes secured from stores into which the mob forced their way. and inflam­matory speeches were made upon every street corner.The Mayor of Evansville issued the following proclamation: uTlie condition.of anarchy and law­lessness that prevailed in this commun­ity last night was a disgrace to civilized people, and a repetition of its scan= dalons proceedings will not be toler­ated. It is hereby ordered that all saloonkeepers in the. city close their respective places of business at 6 o’clock p.m., and keep them closed until G a. m. Tuesday.wAll congregations of people, either on street corners or In other public places, are hereby prohibited. “AU persons carrying arms, or any other kind of weapons for attack or defense, or anything with which an attack or defense could be conducted, shall be arrested.“Any boisterous or incendiary talk will constitute sufficient ground for arrest. “The Chief of Police is hereby in­trusted with the faithful performance of this order, and if it shall require a special force of 500 men to restore peace and quiet, he is authorized to furnish the same.*’ Baptist Town is depopulated-.

His denunciation of the liauor traffic in North Carolina was severe and he showed his ability to handle the subject. He kept the au­dience spellbound with his oratory and when he sat down the hall roared with apDlause. Many pronounced his speech the ablest bit of temperance or­atory ever delivered in North Caro- ^ "Sr. Henry A..London, the author of the “London bill,” was elected perma­nent chairman.

Hi SprunLThe afternoon, and evening sessions were well attended, and interest and enthusiasm increased. Senator Sim­mons’ speech Was heartily applauded, and was a ringing OfiS, He had pre­viously sent a special'comfiitiflication, through J. William Bailey, to the con­vention, urging it to adopt a resolu­tion calling on the judges of North Carolina to charge the grand juries as to the importance of giving attention to any violation of the State liquor law. A. D. Watts’ speech was well re­ ceived. Henry A. Page made a stir­ ring speech on whiskey distilleries, and how to enforce the law against them.It was found from the county re­ports that SO counties were represent­ed, and reports were hopeful, in fact, enthusiastic, showing how widespread this great movement is. The debate at night was mainly upon the follow­ing resolutions, which were reported by Q. II. Nimocks, for the committee on law enforcement, viz: “That we appreciate the bold and manly fight made by the friends of temperance in the last Legislature, and are grateful to them and to Mr. VYatts for the enactment of the bill which bears his name. We believe that what­ever improvement is to be made in our present temperance laws will be deter­mined largely by the effectiveness with which the Watts law is enforced for the next 18 months; therefore, we call upon the advocates of temperance throughout the State to avail tiiem- pelves of the provisions of the Watts law, and to provide for the strict en­forcement of the same in every, sec­tion. By so doing we believe condi­tions will be ripe for grafting upon our present temperance laws the features of the London bill, for which we con­ tended unsuccessfully before the last Legislature. We believe the principles of Ihe London bill to be just, reason­able and practicable, and their ulti­ mate enactment into a law. should be the goal of temperance agitation and an effort.” Thus the convention approved.of the Watts bill and set the Ikindon bill as its aim. J. William Bailey made a speech in which he said there was dan­ ger of this convention looking forward to the Legislature to do work which the convention itself ought to do; that he would rather go into the fight with the burden of proof on the hands of the Anti-Saloon League than on the hands of the saloon-keepers. He want­ ed a hard fight and declared that easy victories were resultless ones; that1 time has now come to strike a blow which will end the liquor.trafflc.A declaration of principles or piaf- form was then submitted by a commit­tee composed of James H.

We advise our Iowa friends to look into this matter of free "raw material thoroughly, instead of the superficial glance they throw at it with a conclu­ sion based on an argument as falla­ cious as an empty wind bag. When it comes to competing Id the foreign mar­ ket it should be remembered that all materials that enter into products to be exported are ninety-nine per cent, free, a feature of our tariff law that free traders rarely consider when talking about “free raw materials” and “the markets of tile world,’’ T hU C ountry Prodncea XIneli T e a r M ore T h an Seven Uilli oil a of So-Called “ R a o " M aterials, on W h ich Six B illlone ol B a b fr a n d W ages Aro E xpended.

The old. economists saw no hope save first know' what “raw material” is and what it means before be echoes the worn out fallacy that has been ex­ ploded times without number. First, we will tell him in the words of IIenrj' G. Carey what “raw material,” as ha uses the terra, is: ‘AU the products of the earth are in turn finished commodity and raw ma- teiral. Coal and ore are the finished commodity of th, material of pig iron. The latter is tho finished commodity of the smelter, ye: is again the raw materia! of sheet iron, and that, in turn, becomes tho raw ma­ terial of the nail and tho spike.” If has been said that only the trees the wild forests, the ore and the coal of the unmined earth and the un- ! 1,1 In^nrious wastefulness of the aris-' toeraey. The great revelation came wlien the people arrived as consumers. Until 1830 we were taught by free trade Democracy that it was tin, American,function to send raw mate­ rial to the Old World and bring back English silks and cassimercs and French knick-knacks and bric-a-brac. Protection camc, and Hamilton and Webster, Lincoln and Seward were vindicated. And yet the mugwump continues to see-saw with the unscientific and anti­ quated notion of raw material. Was the handicap period between 1893-7 in spite of the WiIson-Gorman law? Is the" amazing prosperity of the country under the Dingley tariff in spite of that tariff? A little .knowledge afield is better than a cargo in a box.—Boston Journal. gathered product of the sea are raw material. All else is more or less fin­ ished .product, on which labor to a greater or less degree has been expend­ ed. But lot us call all unfinished prod­ ucts which enter into the production a finished product “raw material.” In other words, let us call all fuel, all food, and the basis of textiles and fin­ ished iron and steel “raw material”— coal and wood, lumber and logs, iron nnd copper, ore, wool, and cotton, and raw silk, chemicals and so on through the list. All these oui' Iowa contem­ porary would have us put on tho free list. Well, to begin, with, every one of them which we do not produce at home is on the free list now. In 1902 we im­ ported “articles in a crude condition which enter into the various processes of domestic industry” to the value of 5328,500,597. Of this, .$259,009,660 worth, or nearly eighty per cent., came in free of duty. These articles ad­ mitted free of duty by the Dingley law number fully 500, and even more if we consider different kinds of material. It would take several newspaper col­ umns to name and describe them. The per cent, of all free imports in 1902 was fifty-three, or more than half of our entire importations. Our importations of so-called “raw material” in 1902, eighty per cent, of which came in free, amounted to $328,- 000,000, while the average under the Wilson-Gorman law was less than $200,000,060. Moreover, it may be stated that the importations of manufacturers’ mate­ rial during the present fiscal year of 1903 will exceed $500,000,000 in value. Now let us consider the protected “raw material.” The census gives the value of our manufactures in 1900 as $13,014,287,498, and the cost of mate­ rials used as $7,348,144,755. Suppose we had imported the whole of that $7,- 350.000.000 worth of material. What would such an annual importation mean? Simply a loss of wages and in­ come amounting to fully $6,000,000,009 a year. And when-tile farmer has no market for bis wool, or the miner for his ore and coal, or the lumberman for his lumber, or the millions of work­ men for their product, how are they going to be able to buy the products of others? That condition of things was just what brought the disasters of 1S94, ’95, ’96 and '97, UII OitT DingTey law came to the rescue and brought the opportunity to do our own work. That is all there is to this question of protection tcvthe finished article or the so-called r a material. It enables us to do our own work, and with the resulting wages and incomes both in the factory and on the farm we en­ large the consumption, and the in­creased demands for ail commodotie* bring increased production and mors business for the railroads, the mer­ chants and personal service. If so- called free raw material did enable some of our manufacturers to produce their wares at a reduction of twenty- five per cent, in cost, it would make 30.000.000 poor farmers and their fam­ ilies, and throw out of work millions of laborers now earning from $2 to $5 a daj'. FulJy three persons are engaged in producing our so-called raw material to one engaged In producing the last finished product.

Tliat Uingley bill was the result nlloiig investigations, much dis- tassion, many conferences and of fte wisdom and united efforts of ineli statcnien as Senator Allison a! Xelsou Uingley and their col- jfagues. Itisthe law of the land to-day aud baa bee& for six years, and is likely to be substantia Iy for siiue time to come. Hence the peat ami assuring confidence that exists throughout the country to­ day. It is what we old settlers and Republicans call a Protective Tar- iiriw. It is the wall *-f American Pmrectiou upon which the feet of Wwtryaml labor leapedontoftlie uiire of itllcucss aud panic and ills- iisier of 1388, waving the flag of employment and prosperity and independence in the fiice of all the world. If is not quite so high as the former McKinley wall, on the average, and not so low as Cireat Britain. Trance, Germany aud the IjIce-Tiaiii.' contingent of Auerica would have it: but it stauds on the rock of reason and experience with the vines of thrift aud plenty streaming over it in the sunshine oi gladness aud in the golden glit­ ter of a full treasury. The com siereial moles of Europe have tried to burrow under it, the ro­ dents of reform to gnaw through it and the Democracy to tumble it down, but it rests secure in the judgement of it people who know by sore experience the difference between Imyiug aboard and buy­ ing at home—seudiug their money uWay and keeping it here—as well asth^kuow the difference be­ tween wfnterand summer. Will Not Ho Brokou Down It is said of William of Orange that when he saw the troop of Liuis XlV covering Holland, he said: “Break down the dikes and give Holland back to the ocean,’' Xotuuliithe commercial forces oi Kurope with their hordes of cheap labor, assisted by the Free-Trade coutingeut in our own midts, shall over-run the fair aud prosperous Iaml of America will such a des­ perate command be given for the destiny of the United States, A dozen words, a single sentence from the Iips of Abrahaui Lincoln: ‘‘This country with its institutions telougs to the people who inhsibit It,” is woith more for the guid­ ance of America than all the pre­ cepts from the school of Manches- Ioc ami nil the iuntteriugs of mod- tl'U political adventurers running between party lines, whose theor­ ies when put in practice have al- ""ys cheapened labor aud surren­ dered our industries back to the old world. iTtrUiuly no State in the UnionIasPioiited more than our own by reiMu of the trial Kepiihliean iudus policy which has saved the jfc-rrkus and the money and thr siWtof America for the people who inhabit it. In the midst of plenty of pro­ fitable prices and of uniform pros­ perity commend the spirit and’the purpose of American Protection. We have no apologies to otter for success nor for auy tenet of the national Repiiblicau faith. In the midst of happiness and harmony, on the basis of genuine Republi­ canism, we hail the wisdom of such men as Allison Dingley, who fra­ med our present industrial law in conformity with lessons of experi­ ence and with the ideas of Hamil­ ton, Lincoln. Willitun McKiuley, James G. Blaine and Thomas Brackett Reed, and we hail also the courage and the frankness of such men as President Roosevelt and Miu-cus A. Hanna, who in the face of cheap aud blustcriugs seu- ationalism’ advocate holding fast to that which is good until you’re sure of something better, “A Day’s Work for Every Man.” A decade ago, on the 23th of next November, speaking from the same platform with Governor Mc­ Kinley, in Mechanics’ Hall, Bos­ ton, when the first shadow of Democratic tinkering had fallen on the industries of onr coiintay, I heard him say to the thousands there assembled.- “ What America needs is a day’s work for every man who Wautsto labor," ami the cheers that greeted him that night rolled tn and on across the conti­ nent aud finally earried him into the White House and engrossed upon the statute books the Ding­ ley la w, and now America' has a day’s work for every man who wants to labor and at greatest wag­ es we have ever known. Seven years ago, one night, I went through the City Hall build­ ing in Chicago, and there beheld a sight that exemplified the usual results of DemoeraticTariff tinker­ ing. Meu of respectable appear­ ance were sleeping ou the bare stone floors of that-vast and cheer­ less building, and elsewhere bun dreds in that city could not find where to lay their heads. On the very day of the same night, more | than five thousand men were fed by charity in that one city of Chi­ cago, and in every city of America where industries were idle, and turnaces were cold, thousands beg­ ged for bread and sought for nooks and corners out, of doors to re3t from idle tramping ol' the weary day. Ah, “ thim were the days for reform!” A Contrast. In striking contrast with all that not many months ago there oeeae- red in the eity of Uhicago a grand parade. A t least fifty thousand well-dressed, well-fed men with joyful faces aud with' banners fly­ ing, marched through the brilliant­ ly bedecked aud richly decorated streets. Uountiess bands dispens­ ed sweet music, and happy child­ ren thrilled with melody lined all the taroughfares aud cheered that peerless pageantry of prosperous toil. -It w..s Labor Day, aud it was labor’s vast, restored aud flourish • ing procession exemplifyingto a happy country the doctrine of a days work tbrevery man who wants to labor. Better continue to march in thrift than s’.esp h.uigry on the stone floor oi reform. The other day the storm-tossed weather beaten hulk of Iowa’s Ueinocraey was moored into the dry dock of convention for repairs. She went to peices on the rocks of Free-Trade and populism many years ago, leaking at both ends and badly sprung a-nidship. They sealed her up with the far of Re­ publican finance, and resolved by a bare majority to put the Add thing into respactle commission once again and to sail her on an­ other course. Away she goes with qnarreling crew, worshiping the igold they used t<> seoru and gcorn- ng the silver which they used to worship. M irking the sea of pro­ gress for. half a ceutury ahead there gleam the light-houses of Re­ publican exploration aud establish­ ment. Along the coast of tim there shiiio the flashing fiirn.ices where factories roar by day and night, aud away beyond the sen and far oft m the Oneai there leads the Iigat of Amenran trade in the miglity commerce of the world.—Extracts from speech of Congressman Cousins of Iovva, , Domestic Troubles.

A few days ago in one of the Southern states a white man who in a drunken condition interrupted a negro religious service was shot, and now a case is reported in Texas where a number of white men went to a negro picnic provo­ ked a row There will be uo sym­ pathy for the authors of such rowdyism, aud it cannot be too strongly coudomed. Rasial rela­ tions during the last four months have become strained to a serious degree aud the white man who heedlessly provokes or in any maji- ner illtreats a negro at this time is not only doing an unmanly thing, to be censured under any circum­ stances, but he is committing a crime againstsoeiety for he is irri­ tating an already' irritated Situa- ! tion. Negroes iu their religious and social affairs are entitled to the same respect that white people demand, and the errors or crimes that are commited by the ignor­ ance or vicious of the race will be increased by the misconduct ot rowdy whites. Meuwhoare given to this sort of thing should be taught by summary IePsons that the same people who demand order and de- ceuey from negroes, will insist up­ on order aud deeeney toward neg­ roes, aud the responsible element of the white race must upon all occasions make this perfectly clear. Otherwise we will suffer the re­ proach of coudoing in whites what would be severely punished in ne­ groes.—Fori Worth Register, H ada negro gone to a white ehurch in a drunken condition, and acted like these whites the sev­ erest penalties of the law would have been invoked, if he had not been lynched. We have a very poor opinion of the man with a white skin who goes to negro meetings, and misbehaves, In the first place we think he is out of his place any way. The negro has a right to be protected from such cattle, and the law should he rigi­ dly enforced against such offend­ ers. It is one of the best ways in the world to stir up nice hatred and conflicts betweeu the races. G ET ABOARD THE FIRST TRAIN FOR SALISBURY, N. C, V.

BLESSES THOSE WHO PRAY FOR HIM Dr. Lapponi Cannot Say That the Pontiff Is Better, but Says H eis No Worse. Saturday morning’s cablegram from Borne says: “I cannot say the Pope is better, but he is no worse.” In the words of Dr. Lapponi summed up for the Associated Press Friday even­ ing the Pontiff’s condition at. the end of the 3econd week of his illness, in all the varying periods of which the Pontiff has scarcely had a quieter day than this, with result that Friday night’s bulletin declares him to be a little less depressed. In the morn­ ing after a night during which stimu­ lants and nursing restored him to a fairly good condition, the Pope com­ plained of soreness, due to the many days he had passed in bed. To relieve this and to humor him, the patient was allowed to sit In his arm chair for a short time with apparent good effect. The celebration of mass was heard by the Pope. From latest ex­ amination of Pope it appears that the liquid in the pleura remains at about the same level which is marked with a demographic pencil on the Pontiff’s side. The physicians think the liquid amounts to about 1,200 grams. Considering the physical con­ dition of the Pope the doctors do not believe it possible that his body can absorb it, as might a strong, well- nourished organism. After the visit of the physicians the Pope received Cardinal Rampolla who remained in the sick room only a few minutes. He again gave the Pope a full acount of the prayers offered in his behalf all over the world. His Holiness, raising both hands said: “I* bless all those who pray to God for me.’’In Vatican circles, there is gossip­ ing over lie great reception given by Monsignor Adjuti, at Lisbon to cele­brate his elevation to the cardinalate and also over the solemnity with which Cardinal Agliradi to'op posses­ sion of his new ofilce of Vice Chan­cellor of the Church. Tte Associated Press correspondent, however, learns that the Pope himself, has had a last interview with Cardinal Agliradi.In sharp contrast with these cere­monies are the continued prepara­ tions at the Vatican for the death of the Pontiff. A huge spit, 12 feet long which has been used for roasting food, for the conclaves since the time of Gregory XVI, was brought from an old store room and will he employed to roast quarters of beef for the isolated cardinals while they are deliberating in the conclave over the election of the successor to Leo XIII. Drs. Lapponi and Mazzoni abso­lutely deny the statement published in the United States that Pope Leo is -suffering from cancer, and ridicule it as anignorant invention. They say they are sure that Dr. Rossoni takes the same view. Toxaway Dan Not Safe. Charleston, S. C., Special.—President James L-. Orr1 of the Piedmont Manu­ facturing Company, of Greenville, one of the leading cotton mill presidents - in the State, has just returned from the Sapphire country, where he care­ fully examined the Toxaway dam. He thinks the structure unsecure and says that if water should rise above the sur­ face of the dam it would be washed away in two hours and the valleys of the Keowee and Saneco river would meet with another Johnstown flood. In the event of a break the Southern and ■ the Blue Ridge railways would be im­perilled, as well as many large manu­ facturing enterprises. Death of Prominent Minister, Macon, Ga., Special.—Rev. J.

The next’an­ nual convention will be held at At lanta, -. - 1 THE POPE’S SUCCESSOR. Tbe Mode of Procedure on the Selec­ tion of Ii New Pontiff. On the death, or at the latest, the twelfth day after the death of the Pope, the conclsnre assembles for the election of the new Pontiff. It is held at the beautiful Sistine chapel within the walls of the Vati­ can.Each cardinal is allowed the services of a secretary and an attendant, who while the conclave lasts occupy rooms adjacent to the peculiar cell allotted to their master. On the day fixed for the meeting of the conclave the cardi­ nals assemble to hear a special mass tor the Holy Spirit and to take the oaths of faithfulness and secrecy.Once within the confines of the con­ clave the massive doors are shut with double locks, and from that moment until the new Pontiff is elected, no person is permitted to pass in or out. The meals for the assemblage are pre­pared within the walls of the Vatican and delivered through a wicket gate, or rather, casement let into the great door.It is here, also, that on the first day of the conclave, a committee of cardi­nals, appointed by the whole body, gives audience to the foreign envoys. This, however, takes place before the conclave has actually men for the pa­ pal election.The Sistine chapel is especially fit­ted for the holding of this momentous council of the Church. The stalls for the cardinals, ranged on each side, are surmounted by canopies of cloth in the ecclesiastical colors, and at the far end, opposite the high altar, are places assigned to the secretaries. On the al­tar itself, or on the table in front of it, is a chalice of silver on which rests the pix containing the host.When the mass has been said and all is prepared the conclave proceeds Io its solemn task. The election of a Pope is effected by three methods, by acclamation, by adoration, in which is embodied the idea of direct divine inspiration; by the compromise or by vote.Pope Leo was elected on the second day of the conclave by acclamation. The system of voting, called the Scrup- tinum, is regulated by exact prescrip­tion. The proceedings are under the directions of six cardinals, two from each order of bishops, priests and dea­ cons.Every cardinal is provided with a voting paper, on which he writes the Bame of his chosen candidate, but not his own name. ,No one is permitted to vote for himself. When the requis­ite interval has passed, each cardinal, beginning with the one of the most ancient creation, leaves his stall and advances to the high altar. Amid a solemn hush the elector prays for awhile on the altar steps, and then declaring aloud that his vote is given according to his conscience, drops his voting paper in the chalice. When all have voted in like manner the six scru­tinizes examine the papers and pro­claim the result.If no cardinal has obtained the re­quired number of votes—two-thirds of the number of cardinals present, plus cne—the result is declared void, and the voting papers, collected together, are burned in a brazier with damp straw, the dense smoke from which issues from a particular chimney, visi­ble from outside, and proclaims to the taken place.Dnder these circumstances, on the afternoon of the same day, a second vote takes place, supplementary to the first and called the accessit vote. In this the procedure embodies the theory that the cardinal who obtained the largest number of votes In the morn­ ing is the most acceptable to the con­clave. Consequently his name is the Duly one considered for the moment and each cardinal votes for him by writing the word “Accedo" on his scheda or voting paper, or signifies his dir cnt by the words “ “Accedo nem- Ini.”If this new vote leads to no result, the papers are burned as before and the conclave adjourns until the fol­lowing morning, when the election be­gins afresh and quite irrespective of the previous day’s proceedings. When, at length, the determining vote is taken and the cardinal deacon, as scrutinizer, announces that a certain candidate has been elected Pope, there Is a departure from the proceedure adopted hitherto. The cardinal dea­con opens each folded paper fully, and, reading the Latin motto which each cardinal has to inscribe on it for the purpose of ultimate identification, makes known how each member of the conclave has voted.The election being over, a summons is at once sent to the perfect of cere­monies, who speedily enters the chap­el, bearing the fisherman’s ring. An interval occurs, during which the cano­pies are removed from the stalls of all the cardinals except that of the newly elected Pope, and His Holiness retires to robe himself in the pontificial vest­ments. On his return the fisherman’s ring is placed on his finger by the cardina' camerlingo and the new vicar of Christ gives his first solemn benediction to the members of the sacred college from the steps of the altar.Then, taking his seat on the Sedia Gestatorit the Pope receives the hom­ age of their eminences and communi­cates the names which it is his pleas­ure to assume as Pontiff. Next, the first cardinal deacon takes the oath of obedience, and, hastening to the grand loggia or balcony of St. Peter’s, looking onto the great piazza, an­ nounces to the expectant multitude the election of the Pope, using the form of words, consecrated by imme­morial usage: “I bring you tidings of great joy. We have a Pope, the most high and reverend Lord (here he gives the Christian and surname of the new Pope), who has, taken upon himself the-name of Pius X or Leo XIV. News of the Day.

KENTUCKY REPUBLICANS Convention Endorses Roosevelt’s Administration, Louisville, Special.—A second day of picturesque political manoeuvering In the State convention of the Ken­ tucky Republicans failed to culmin­ ate in the surprise of the winning "dark horse, whose coming had been hinted at and whose followers during Thursday’s session set the political managers to guessing. Colonel Morris B'. Belknap, of Louisville, a whole­ sale merchant widely known through­ out the country, received the nomina­ tion for Governor on the first ballot. The threatened stampedo to Bradley was quelled by an emphatic declara­ tion that he would not be a candidate, but for some unknown reason the con­ vention officers called his name dur­ ing the ballot and he received a greater number of votes than Clifton J. Pratt, who made an active canvass. The convention did practically noth­ ing during the morning and a long wait was profitably employed by the Belknap leaders in holding their men in line and chilling the' Bradley senti­ ment. The platform adopted, after congratulating the people of the United States on "the unparalleled prosperity achieved under the na­ tional Republican policy,” refers to President Roosevelt as follows: “We express high appreciation of the record that President Roosevelt has made in . continuing the great work begun by Wm. McKinley,' and in himself dealing with the new prob­ lems that he has had to solve In hi3 handling of the Philippine question; in his firm management of the Vene­ zuelan crisis; in his wise, courageous course with the anthracite coal strike, with his honest efforts to secure jus­ tice to Cuba; in his zeal for the Panama Canal; in his vigorous de­ mand for official purity and honesty and punishment of the corrupt and dishonest; in his resolute stands against the closing of Chinese ports to our trade; in the success achieved by his political efforts to enforce the law against unlawful combination and In the encouragement he has given to the laying of a cable across the Pa­cific, which brings us into closer touch with the Philippines than we were with the Louisiana territory, or with California when acquired. He has shown himself a strong executive as he is an ideal citizen and we heart­ ily and enthusiastically are for his nomination for the presidency In 1901.” The platofrm also denounces as­sassination and lawlessness,. and es­pecially arraigns the Governor of Ken­tucky “for so exercising the pardon­ing power as to subserve political and partisan purposes with the certain ef­fect of encouraging crime by virtually rendering criminals . of Democratic political faith immune from punish­ment.” No reference to the money question was made in the platform. Nominations for Governor were reached late in the afternoon.. The surprise came when the eleventh dis­ trict was called and State Senator Kash nominated former Governor Wm. O. Bradley In p. speech of the fervid Kentucky style and the dele­gates made a tumultuous demonstra­tion which Mr. Bradley finally quelled by shooting: “I have declared for 12 months that I would not accept this nomination. I am an honest man and while I thank my friends, I adhere to my original resolution. I cannot be a candidate for Governor.” Epworth Leasus Convention. Detroit, Special.—Every incoming train throughout the night brought in its quota to swell the hosts of Epworth LeaguerB and hundreds arrived on morning trains, both regular and spe­cial, until, when the sixth interna­ tional convention opened Thursday, it is- estimated 15,000 of the leaguers are in toe city. The convention was opened with three great meetings. Each fol­lowing identically the same pro­ gramme, addresses of welcome, re­sponses and a keynote address. The •large chorus which was organized among the local signers to furnish the music fbr the convention was divided and one-third of them worshipped in the auditorium under the leadership of Evangelist John Hillis, J. M. Black and Charles D. Tillman. The Detroit Opera House was crowded when Rev. TI. W. Featherstone, of Hattisburg, Miss., the chairman of the meeting, presented Rev.

Washington, Special.—It is announc­ ed at the War Department that all re­ quisitions made by the Governors of the different States and Territories for supplies and equipments for the organized militia of their respective States or Territories will be charged to the annual allotment of funds, under section 1661 of the Revised Statutes, unless it is specifically requested that the requisition be made chargeable to the provisional allotment of the $2,- 000,000 under the act of Congress ap­ proved March 2. 1902. Murdered By Negro. Birminghom, Special.—W. B. • Mc­ Kinney, mine foreman at Belle Sum­ ter, was shot and instantly killed by Bob Sawyer, a negro.

CbicagOt Police fired on. a mob, many persons wera hurt by flying bricks and several arrests were made in the most spirited labor riot of the stock yards teamsters’ strike. Shortly before 3 o’clock one of the Kellogg Switchboard Company’s wagons hove j i sight around the corner o? West Congress and Peoria streets. The •wagon was escorted by a single patrol wagon, and when it encountered the blockade winch had been arranged on the corner two special policemen of the company displayed revolvers.The crowd began to hoot and jeer, and someone threw a brick, narrowly missing a city uniformed policeman. The policeman gave chase to the man who shied the brick, but soon realized that it was merely a ruse to decoy him away from the plant and bring him un­der the walls of a building near by in course of construction.As soon as the fugitive reached the shadow of the walls the laborers began throwing bricks from the fifth story of the building to prevent the capture of their ally. Meantime Lieutenant O’Connor saw the predicament of Jiis policeman and hurried to his assistance with several men. The workmen in the building were defiant, and the po­lice were obliged to fire about thirty shots before the attack ceased. More shooting occurred when the loaded wagon was started for the freight sheds. Sergeant Madden and ten policemen gave chase after a sym- tliizer who had thrown a brick at the police sergeant, who was driving a wagon the driver of which had been ar­rested early on the trip. At the corner of Cypress street and Orden avenue the fugitive tripped and fell, but finally succeeded iu making his escape. The last volley dispersed the crowd. Four­teen arrests were made during the riot.

It is fortunate in having as Chairman of its National Committee a man of the stamp of Hon. Marcus A3 Hanna. The need of the hour is stal­ wart, uncompromising Republicanism on the part of the men intrusted with the duty of directing the party’s prac­ tical politics. Senator Hanna is noth­ ing if not straightforward and practi­ cal. He does not know what it is to be ambiguous or evasive. Of himself he might truly say: “I am no orator, as Brutus is; But, as you know me all, a plain, blunt man, ..; ((Ri I only speak right on.” • . r-" To be a plain, blunt man and to speak right on is an admirable charac­ teristic in a campaign leader and man­ ager. Senator Hanna never exhibited these valuable traits to better advan­ tage than in his speech before the Ohio Republican State Convention, June 3, 1903. Such, a speech was most oppor­ tune. It was time that some big man —the bigger the better—stood up and proclaimed the dignity, the glory and the splendid record of unadulterated Republicanism; time to show a just pride in the party’s principles and achievements, without apology, quali­ fication or saving danse of any kind. Senator Hanna was the right man In the right place. A lifelong member of the American Protective Tariff League this virile Ohioan is a believer in the doctrine and policy of protection through and through, first, last and all the time. He does not think the Ding- Jey tariff “shelters monopoly;” he knows that it does not. "He does not recognize the present existence or probable occurrence of anything in the nature of “shifting needs” that now do or are likely to call for any aban­ donment, any abatement, any relaxa­ tion of ihe system of protection to American labor and Industry. Here is the pith and the core of Mark Han­ na’s position on the tariff tinkering: “Is there anybody In this great au­ dience—aye, is there anybody In the State of Ohic-who hestitates for one moment, under all the conditions which have gone before, under all the environments of the present, under all the hopes of the future, to see one sin­ gle cause as to why the Republican party should change one iota of those principles? (Long continued cheering.) “Human liberty, protection to Amer- can industries and our workingmen. (Renewed applause). We started that slogan many years ago. It went forth and reached the hearts of every fire­ side in the land, and if we needed any additional tribute, or any accessory to add to the lustre of that monument, it would be the continuation of happiness and contentment perceptible every­ where around us. I once said, ‘Let well enough alone.’ (Applause). For God’s sake, keep letting it alone. (Re­ newed applause).” That is the gospel that Republicans want to hear. That is the doctrine to preach from every Republican pulpit Let protection alone. Let the tariff alone! “Let well enough alone! For God’s sake keep letting it alone!” Let Democrats Take the Bisk. A tariff revision on the eve of a Presidential campaign would be a haz­ ardous experiment even for the Repub­ lican party. Besides, the approved Republican policy is to let the Demo­ cratic party do all the monkeying with the revision buzz saw. Tariff revision periods are likely to be periods of busi­ ness disturbance, under the most fav­ orable auspices. The Washington Ad­ ministration is plainly timid about In­ viting any such derangement—Pitts­burg Press. This is so clearly and obviauBly the correct view of “approved Republican policy” as to excite astonishment that any body of Republicans anywhere should have called it In question. * In 1904, as in the past, the Democratic party should be allowed an exclusive monopoly in tariff tinkering. Republi­ cans have no occasion either to apolo­ gize for or defend the Dingley law. They can afford to. “stand pat” and watch the other fellows cut their fingers on the revision buzz saw. The country will hear all it wants to hear about revision from the Democrats next year. Whatitwantstohearfrom the Republican party is that the tariff is to be let alone. With that as the chief issue, there is little doubt as to which party will win In 1904. She Was a Surprise. “Name this child,” said the South­ ern bishop who was baptizing a «™»ii scrap of “poor white” humanity “Onyx.” “Onyx?” “Onyx.” How in the world did you ever hit upon the name of Onyx?” asked the clergyman after the service “Why, because she come'so onyx- pected, ’ drawled the parents In all seriousness. THE OHIO IDEA.

I suffered dreadfully from inflammation, and doctored continually, but got no help. I suffered from terrible dragging sen­ sations with the most awful pains low down in the side and pains in the back, and the most agonizing headaches. Ifo one knows what I endured. Often I was sick to iho stomach, and e~ery little while I would be too sick to go to work, for thr»-.c or four days; I work In a large store, and I suppose stand­ing on my feet all day made me worse.“At the suggestion of a friend of toy mother’s I began to take Jjydia E.

Judge Cox, of the United States Circuit Court, while delivering a lec­ ture at Columbia University told of a young lawyer who came before the Su­ preme Court to argue a case in which he was also defendant. Addressing the court, he referred to the old French adage declaring that he who argues his own case has a fool for a client. After the case had been heard he left for his home in St. Louis, asking a friend to notify him by wire when the. decision was handed down. This was the pithy dispatch he received: “Old French adage affirmed.” insures freshness of Novel Method Adopted by-the Dairy.

In consequence of this guaran­ tee the association pays the farmer three pfennigs, or about half a cent, above the regular market price for each eggs. The Dairymen’s associa­tion then makes a record of each pur­ chase by giving the farmer a regis­ tered number and numbering each egg .In corresponding manner. “When a consumer chances to find a stale egg he returns it to the dealer, who in turn charges it to the associa­ tion, which reports the matter to the farmer.

The liquid part of wine contains light ethers, ethylic alcohol, heavy al­ cohol and oils, and substances such as furfural and aldehyde. All these prod­ ucts are poisonous. The solids of wine are coloring matter, fixed’organic acids, and mineral- salts, all of which are harmless, with the exception of the lime and potash, the lime being very bad for the gouty. Now, a wine which is deprived of the heavy alcohol, oils, lime and potash should contain no injurious elements. According to L’lllustration, it seems that Dr. Garrigou of Toulouse has been able to obtain this result by con­ centrating wine In a vacuum, this pro­ cess taking away the cooked taste which ordinary heat produces. In this way wine may be reduced to a dry powder, and if then the powder be placed in water or ethylic alcohol, all the properties of the wine are recov­ ered, with the exception of the pois­ onous elements. By this process there is obtained a perfectly harmless wine, which may be kept indefinitely, and which is handled readily.—Philadel­phia Record. “Real” Antiques. While most of the curiosity shops In New York are stocked with skill­ fully faked “antiques” there are a few reputable dealers who bare things to show that are really worth while. Among the most interesting antiques exhibited in shops that cater to the tastes of millionaire collectors are a set of “spotted luster” china in old rose speckled with white, the only complete set In existence; a two- handled depas, the! cup used In Hom­ eric libations; a black and gold sleigh of solid oak, said to have been the property of the royal family in Hol­ land 300 years ago; a cardinal’s chest, marvelously carved, and bearing the insignia of the owner's rank and of­ fice; a cupboard of scubbed oak which once delightel the heart of some Dutch housewife, an old soft hat belonging to Washington’s grandfather; rich .vest­ ments, embroideries and Oriental gods plundered from churches and ancient temples, and a beautiful marble foun­ tain from the garden of a Venetian doge.—Pittsburg Dispatch. “In almost all other departments bf the work-a-day world,” said Professor Robert Erskine Ely in a recent lec­ ture, “some phase of democratic feel­ ing has filtered through except that of domestic service. This is still in the pall of feudal darkness. And it is the women who keep it so, and the women who must eventually emancipate it. Laws and laments, increased wages or gifts will not work enfranchisement. Tne rights of the woman domestic must be recognized by the woman em­ ployer as sacred and inalienable be­ fore the so-called ‘servant problem’ can be solved. As. matters stand now these is no system, no scale of hours or wages, no standard of any sort between mistress and maid, and the treatment of each by the other is left to the caprice of the temperament and, too often, temper, and there is no redress but dismissal or ‘leaving.’ This is a state of affairs that ought not to ex­ ist among American women, cultured wives and mothers—the homekeeperf' of our great democratic nation.” In the Good Old Times.

Insurance Commissioner Young says he is in receipt of information that the “Old Wayne Mutual Association" is again making extra efforts to do busi­ ness in this State. Very much to his surprise he is receiving inquiries from life insurance agents in the State ask­ ing him of the standing of this asso­ ciation. These inquiries are no doubt brought about by a circular that is be­ ing issued by this concern in which they are offering extra1 “bonuses” in addition to large commissions for any business sent’ them. .A letter received some time since from Insurance Com­ missioner Hart, bf Indiana, says, “that this company generally pays from 10 per cent, to 15 per cent, on the face of its policies, when it pays at all. It is a disgrace to Indiana that such com-, panies be permitted," under cover 1 of law, to do a legal business, and I trust ere long that the courts will be in posi­ tion to decide as to whether these methods can have their endorsements under the statute.” The above should be sufficient to satisfy any citizen of the State or any agent as to the relia­ bility or character of this fraud. The commissioner says he desires to call the attention of the agents in the State to the fact that under the law they cannot legally represent non-admitted companies or asspciaions and that if they do,- then they not only become re­sponsible for the taxes and fees that such companies or associations would pay in the State if legally admitted, that in case of loss they become per­sonally responsible to the assured for the full amount of policies issued through them. For an Exhibit. Secretary T. If. Bruner says very ex­ tensive preparations are now being made for North Carolina’s participa­ tion in the St. Louis Exposition. A great show will be made in minerals and State Geologist. Homes has two very capable men now in the field col­ lecting specimens.- The display of woods and timbers will be a great one, and State Forester W. W. Ashe is now in the field extending the collection. Mr. Bruner says it is the.plan to have extremely large panoramas of moun­ tains and forests in North Carolina. These are to be from 60 to 120 feet in length and to be used as a frieze in the buildings where.North Carolina’s exhibits are IocatecL Mr. Geo. F. Greene is here in connection with the making of these panoramas. Photo­graphs are first taken and then enor­mously enlarged and colored in the most perfect manner. At the top of the wall space of North Carolina's ex­hibits in the departments of forestry natural history and fisheries, which adjoin each other, it is expected to have one of these grand panoramic views 150 feet in length, representing the three departments above referred to. . Tar Heel Brevities. Mr. E. M. Armfield, of High Point, and Mr. M. L. Jones of Montgomery county, who are the principal owners of the Iola gold mines in Montgomery county, arrived in the city Thursday morning, bringing with them 72 pounds of crude gold, worth $13,260, which they turned over to United States Assayer D. K. Pope, at the lo­cal mint.. This amount represented the output of the mines for the past seven weeks. The Iola mine has been in operation for only two years, but "is one of the best paying mines in the State. The output last year was one- half. of the total production of gold in this State. The cost of operating the mine is about $1,600 per month, and the profit for that period of time is about $8,000.—Charlotte Observer.

Conditions Qlven By the Department for the Past Week. Beneficial light rains occurred at the beginning and close of the "past week, while the intermediate days were dry, warm and sunny. The rain­ fall averaged less than an inch, and was somewhat irregularly distributed, a* few counties in the west receiving too much precipitation, and a few In the north central portion too little; on the whole there was a tendency to drought in most counties, but it is thought.the rainfall Monday 12th, put an end to danger of a severe drought. The mean temperature for the week was about 80 degrees, or some 4 de­ grease above the daily normal, with Irequent day temperatures above 90 degrees, and nights generally warm. Weather conditions, therefore, were again very favorable; crops.continued to make rapid growth; killing grass and weeds and other farm work pro­ gressed nicely, and most crops are clean and well cultivated, except in several sections where labor is very scarce. Cotton has continued to improve and looks very well, though it is still small; blooms are plentiful along the southern tier of counties; in the southeast portion cotton is fruiting well. Com is growing rapidly, and the crops is generally very promising; laying by com is still underway in the West, elsewhere most of the old com has been laid by in silk and tas­ sel; some corn is reported to be tas- seling low, and there are a few com­ plaints of damage by chinch bugs; upland corn would be benefitted by more rain. Cutting and curing tobacco is now underway in more than a dozen counties, and this work will claim a large share of "the farmer’s attention for some weeks to come; so far tobacco has cured well; late set tobacco is making rather slow growth. Sweet potatoes are now very promising; Irish potatoes maturing in the west. Gardens continue to yield the ordinary vegetables in abundance; tomatoes -are ripening. every where. Cantaloupes and watermelons are coming into market in small quan­ tities, but generally melons are late and poor. Meadows and pastures have improved in the west, and the second crop of clover appears to be promis­ ing. The prospects for fruit are still fairly good; peaches are rotting to some extent, and apples are falling at a period too late to suppose that the thinning of the crop will benefit the yield materially. Rains reported: Raleigh, 0.34;Goldsboro, 0.06; Greensboro, 0.32; Lnmberton, 1.38; Newbern, 0.30; Wel­don, 1.40; Wilmington, 0.10; Ashe ville, 1.00; Hatteras, 0.10. Haywood Trial Postponed. Raleigh, Special.—The trial of Em-. est Haywood was on Monday continu­ ed until the September term on the ap­ plication of the defendant’s attorneys, who claimed that important witnesses were absent The criminal term of Wake Superior Court, with Judge Peebles presiding, was expected to be of special interest by reason of- the trial of Haywood on the charge of murdering Ludlow Skin­ ner. It was said up to Sunday that both sides were ready and the trial was a certainty, but Monday morning Hay­ wood’s lawyers asked for a continu­ ance, on the ground that Charles P. Hocutt, one of their leading witnesses, was sick at his home here, of typhoid fever. An affidavit was filed as to this. One "was also filed that the wife of a man named Schnitz, of Southern Pines, has consumption, but that Witness Schnitz will give her a change of scene and will be on hand at. the next term of court. Of course the State combatted this motion for "continuance ana tnc hearing of argument was set for this afternoon. . Haywood, the defendant, was in‘the court room with several relatives 'and all his lawyers. Judge Peebles this afternoon allowed the mo­ tion for continuance and the case will again come up at the September term.The State had prepared an affidavit ready to file and offered it, but the judge said where the defendant filed an affidavit tho prosecution could not file one. Tar Heel Notes. Harry Marsh, the 7-year old son of Mr. S. B. Marsh, a well known citizen of Marshville, Union county," had a nar­ row escape from a horrible death Wednesday morning. The little fellow was playing about the Seaboard Air Line tracks near Marshville station, when he was struck by a shifting en­gine. He was knocked off the track and his body badly bruised at several places. His injuries are not of a seri­ ous nature, however.

Female trouble is so common, so prevalent, that they accept it as almost in­evitable. The greatest obstacle in the way of recovery is that they do not understand that it is catarrh which is the source of their illness.

Have the powers that be in Forsyth smelt a -‘mice” and called off the dogs. We notice that Mr. Albert Wharton one of the coanty commississioners has re­ signed. Why? Information come3 to us that the family of Chas. D. Dwiggeus con­ sisting of a mother (who is sick) and six little children are in-des­ titute circumstances. A party -of us sent them some meat and flour last Satiirday. This woman and these children should. be looked after.

While Mr. Simmons was mak­ ing a speech in an attempt .to cap­ ture the Anti-Saloon League at Raleigh a few days ago, we are informed that Mr. Jas. H. Pou was trying to get the committee to endorse the Watts Bill; What a sjieetacle indeed! “ Whar is she at?” We are sorry to note so soon af­ ter such a happy event as the marriage of our friend Jack Ray, the burning of his barn with six head of horses and mules, wagons, buggies and harness. His pair of driving horses ivere also burned for which he had been offered $600 Total loss about $2500. This is pre­ tty tough cn Jack, Next week we will give our readers an article from the Ashie ville Register “Republican Out­ look in North- Carolina.” Every­ one should read it, and especially Republicans. Its a tipiely article, on an important subject and the great masses of laborers and wag­ es earners should heed the warn­ ing, and act for their best interest and that of the -entire people of the state. 1 The Assessment. We notice in the returns some of the results of the new assess­ ment. and the people are beginin- ingto ltick. InWiuston we notice in the Journal’s “Kick Kolumn” an article on the subject of dis­ crimination, Foi1Syth county with a large manufacturing town made very little more gain than Davie a much smaller county and almost purely agricultural. Ire­ dell comity about twice the size of Davie with two manufacturing towns, Statesville and MooresviIle made about half the gain. Three townships in Iredell we are relia­ bly informed only gave m $75,00 in cash on hand the first day of June 1902 Great is the Democratic machine in this Statei bow long will the people be deceived? Negro Normals Discontinued. The Slate Board of Education have discontinued three of the seven negro Normal schools. This we think was a great mistake. Gov. Aycock the great educational 'Governor east his vote for the dis­ continuance of these schools for the negro teachers. We wonder what answer the negro children will give to our superintendent’s question, who is the educational governor? One of the great needs of the schools for both white and black are well prepared compe­ tent teachers, and these prepara­ tory schools for teachers should be multiplied as rapidly as the means will permit. The promise made by the Democrats with refereuce to the schools and education aie like most of their promises, made to be broken. The Negro race should not be permitted to go back into barbarism here in a Christian and civlized state. I COUHTY KEWS | Cooleemee Items. .

But to make it- the chief stimulus to party endeavor, or to seek to hold itm perpetuity, is repugnant to our institutions, The perpetual office-seeker, particularly if he has demonstrated hiv - incapacity to make a success in - any other vo cation, does not usually command the very highest public respect. There are hundreds aud thousands of honest Democrats who are-tired of the misrule of their own party, but we could hardly expect them to join us if we should become a body of warrmg and factious of­ fice-seekers whose. only weapon is a fly-blow ora smut brush. We repeat that offic'e-holding may be the incident of good party service, but it can never be the primary object ofa good and worthy par­ tisan. * A vigorous and effective party organzatioa that reaches from the State chairman down to the voter, inducing him to pay his polltax to register, to attend the polls, to vote-, and see that his neighbor does likewise will do more than all other agencies, and i3 indispensa­ ble to party success. While we believe in generous and liberal reading of all sides of public issues, yet. every Republi­ can should read one or more good Republican newspapers. Such literature, particularly before the heated campaign is on, is a power­ ful agency for riveting conviction and aiming the voter with argiie- inent with which to combat and convince their Democratic neigh­ bors. North Carolina Republicans are wofally culpable in this parti­ cular. We know of men holding honorable and lucrative public stations, who read Democratic papers to the neglect of their own party papers. We have one daily and a score of weeklies that are the equal of any of their class, and at the same time mauy of them are run at a sacrifice by their - pro­ moters solely with th,e view of dis­ seminating party principles. In the election, nest year we can carry thirty counties, elect Con­ gressmen in the 8th and IOth Dis­ tricts, if indeed we do not carry the State, if we commence now and prosecute a vigorous -and un­ ceasing campaign. This is said in criticism of no one but solely with thehopethat.it may induce us to stop aud think, and then address ourselves to this great task in a manner worthy of the members of a great party.

We would like to advise the Davie Record that its queries are fraught with too much tenderness, and moreover that it shoal'd be more thoughtful than to be guilty of such an impertinent breach of etiquette, without , first having obtained an order from our County Board of Commissioners, counter­ signed by the eon of Joseph who was no Isis a psrsouage than the founder of the ancient village of Fulton in its oiyu loved County of Davie. Go downby the rippling Yad­ kin and listen to its gentle sharps and trebles, as. it percolates .the shimmering sands along the shores dug out and curbed in by our an­ cestral Uncle Bandy, and tell us what the wild waves from the dis taut- sea murmur back into your anxious ears, aniT then repeat your queries, couched in more respectful terms.

While we. are aware that the Democratic mach- chine are the Divine Rulers, and no Radical has a right to hold of­ fice or question their acts,, jret we having imbibed from our infancy up the idea that we lived in a Re­ public, and were in a measure a free people, where oue man had as m uch right to his op­ inion as another..

Sanford’s cy that it’s m name Onlyi ffiac we are a free people, but in order to set ourselves right with uncle Moses we are going to open your eyes to the true state of affairs in Winston and Forsyth county. Are you not aware that the head of your county finance de­ partment is a Davie county Dem­ ocrat? Are not three of your city Aldermen Davie county Demo­ crats? Is not -the mayor of your city a Davie county Democrat? Is not your county Physician a Davie county Democrat? Is not your city Phyoiciana Davie county Demo­ crat? Are not several of your pol­ ice force Davie county Democrats? With all of the above staring you in the face how can you criti­ cise us for speaking of, and feeling an interest in Davie county’s con­ trol of your county and city through its former citizens? We know Unele Moges some thing about Davie county Demo­ crats, they did years ago for Davie exactly what they are doing for Forsyth, got us ia debt, and the Republi­ cans took hold of the county fina­ nces in 1896 and have nearly paid the entire debt, besides reduced the taxes year by year, until to­ day Davie county carriesione of the smallest tax rates in the state. I suggest a remedy for your people next year, elect in your county- a few Davie county Republicans and let them help you out of the ditch you are in. Elect such men as 0. G, Bailey, Chairman of our Board of county commissioners, the head of our fiuance depart­ ment and await the result. In other words give the Republicans a chance to put your county on a solid financial basis, and await the result. Davie has tried it, and has made money by it. Now Uncle Moses apologize for your inper­ tinence and let’s shake hands over the bloody chasm. G ET ABOARD THE FI RS T TRAIN FOR SALISBURY, N. C, V.

Just at that jnoment a large party of American tourists, unaware of the crit­ical, situation of the Pontiff, ascended the grand staircase, talking and laugh­ing. They were approached by a gend­ arme, who said, “Please do not make any noise, as the Holy Father is dy­ing.”This produced great emotion among the tourists, and they immediately re­tired. !When, during the nlanning crisis about noon, he was lying on his bed, perfectly motionless, while around him knelt the Cardinals and other members of the Papal Court, without any prelim­inary restlessness the Pope opened his eyes, which fell on Cardinal Oreglia, who.'was at his side, and he said sol­emnly: . ----“To Your Eminence, wh&ly'ni so soon seize the reins O-^giipreme power, I con­fide the CUiiroli in these difficult times.” POPE LEO XIII. to the Pope’s death within two hours. At 4 p. in. the Pope had lost all con­sciousness, and in this state he passed away.The news of the Pope’s death spread rapidly throughout Rome, and. caused a profound feeling. Wie whole city is now in mourning.While the doctors were examining their patient in the morning, believing him to be in a stupor, he suddenly fixed his eyes on them, saying:“This time, doctors, you will hot win in your brave fight with death.” ; “It is your Holiness who Isr brave,” replied Dr. Lapponi, but before the remark was uttered the Pope was again unable to understand what was said. .'The-following medical bulletin was issued at 9.35 a. m.:“During the night the Holy Father rested only at short intervals. His .gen­eral condition remains grave. Pulse. 94; respiration, 32; temperature, 36.2 centigrade.”Although the morning’s bulletin was calculated to give the impression that the Pope’s condition was somewhat ameliorated, in reality the doctors con­sidered that the lowering of the -pulse 1 Chamber, asked for the Pope’s bene­diction for tha court, which the Pope granted, adding, ‘.‘Be this my lastgrect- iug.”Then the Pop& gave his hand to kiss to the Cardiuals present, who were Oreglia. Raiupolln. Seralino Vanutelli, ..Delia Volpe aud Vives y Tuto.Dr. Lapponi profited by the Pope’s animation to admiuister restoratives, after which the patient sank back a* suddenly as lie had revived. ^The words the Pope addressed to Cardinal Oreglia are much commented upon, and some wondered whether the intention of Leo XIII. was to indicate Cardinal Oreglia as his successor.The first notifications from Cardinal Oreglia of the Pope’s demise were sent to the Cardinal Dean, representing the College of Cardinals, and the Cardinal Vicar, representing the Bishopric of Rome. Immediately after the accred­ ited representatives of the foreign pow­ers to the Vatican were informed. Monsignor Xocellal the Secretary of the Sacred College, communicated with lhose Cardinals who were absent from liome, and requested them to attend immediately at the forthcoming con­clave.Orders were sent to all the churches and religious communities in Home, di­recting the clergy to hold special ser­vices and to celebrate requiem masses.Those present in the Pope’s chafnjber at the time of his death were Cardinal Serafino Vanutelli, Sacristan Piffiui, Count-Camille Peee!, the Pope's nephew; Dr. Lnpponi and the Pontiff’s valet; Pio Centra.The occurrences in the death cham­ber immediately following the Pope’s demise were of impressive solemnity. Couriers had been dispatched to sum­mon those delegated to perform the first religious offices for the dead Pope, aud soon the chanting of the Francis­can monks was heard, as, two by two, in coarse brown habits and' with san­daled feet, they proceeded to the room in which Leo lay dead. Prom time im­memorial the Franciscans have been Penitentiaries of St. Peter’s. Follow* iug them came the Noble Guards, to watch over the Pontiff’s remains, the brilliancy of their uniform contrasting stiikihgly ^wltli the sombre attire of the monks and the solemn dignity of [ the chamber itself. The *only sound | heard., was the measured chanting of the Psalms of Penitence by a group of monks kneeling. beside the couch of death. Two Noble Guards took up po­sitions at the foot of the couch and stood there, rigid and silent as statues, Witn swords drawn and reversed, point­ing to the floor.The. death chamber preserved much ilie same appearance as it did during the illness of the Pope. It is situated on the third floor of the Vatican, the apartments fronting the spiendid piazza of St. Peter's and the window of the room commanding a view of the tall of the books on religious topics which he kept pear him remained on it.jptofte Leo, who had undertaken ex­hausting labors in spite of the warn­ings of his physician, Dr. Lapponi, be* came seriously ill on July 4‘ with a bronchial.and catarrhal ailment, Which rapidly developed " into pulmonary trouble-, hffecjdhg his right lung;; HP sank Steadily in strength, aithbugh maintaining the brightness of his into!-- iect txhtii within the last few days.

MAY BE NO WAK A Settlement Between Russia and Japan in Prospect JAPAN AGREES TO WAIT LONGER Impossible to Embark in War With Russia Single-Handed—Support ol - England Not Expected. London, By Cable.—Japan has de­ cided to observe the policy of waiting and watching Russia, advocated by Great Britian. In the meantime she will urge China to carry out the - surances given to the United States respecting Manchuria and will a , deavor to obtain the opening of ad. ditional ports. At the Japanese Iega. tion here the following statement was made by an official to the Associate Press: “I can assure you that the lalk of war between Russia and Japan is an invention. Japan has not the least in. tentlon of taking that course. She pro- poses to wait and maintain her atti­ tude of watchfulness. Japan ami America are acting on the same lines and it would be difficult for any othev power to withstand the pressure they and Great Britain could apply." It is said that Japan intends to do nothing till October, when the final ovacuation of Manchuria must occur. The failure of Russia to withdraw from Manchuria would be followed by a serious move on the part of Japan. The Russian embassy here regrets the confusion which has arisen in con­ sequence of the publication Cf the re­ port that Prince Ching, head of the Chinese Foreign Office, had written to Minister Conger, refusing to open ports in Manchuria. The Russian offi­ cials believe with Washington that the note was sent before China gave her assurances and they asserted posi­ tively that Russia intends to carry out to the letter the assurances she has given and that she will not interpose obstacles in the way of China observ­ing her pledge to Secretary Hav. —1A dispatch to Reuter’s Telegram Company from St. Petersburg, dated July 20, says: “The attitude of Japan and the warlike tone of the majority of the Japanese press have attracted much attention in official circles here. It . is declared by the best informed people that there i 3 no likelihood of war, certainly not upon Russia's in­itiative. It is stated that Russia has every motive for desiring peace, chief­ ly for financial reasons, with which are wound up a desire for extensive domestic reforms which the govern­ment considers to be the most offi- caeious manner of disarming interna! discontent and nipping the revolu­ tionary propaganda in the biul. “It is believed to be impossible from the Russian view point for Ja- pan to embark In a conflict with Rus­sia single-handed, and it is thought she will secure the material support ot Great Britain and of the United States. Nevertheless, Russia is taking every precaution to strengthen her military and naval position in the Orient, believing this to be the surest means of discouraging Japanese ag­ gression.“M. - Lessar’s Port Arthur confer­ ence is said to have dealt chieily with these measures, though they are de­clared to be entirely precautionary, war Being the furthest thing from the wishes of the government of Russia.” Agaia Active.

If Bmlness is to Be InjaMd and l-rosper- Hy Cbecked l>y Tariff Tinkerlne, Let Bemociais Take AU the Sesponslbimy Snd AIi the Blaine, The Kppubliean' convention of Ohio followed the lead of Senator Hanna in declaring for a policy of “hands oft” the tariff. There is sound wisdom In this, however much it may discomfort the swarm of inveterate tariff tinkers, always seeking to reopen this question. The sense of the country has been tested on the question of protection against free trade several times, and there is no question that the !Repub­ lican policy has the indorsement of the American people. Even those who aro at the bottom of their hearts believers in absolute free, trade recognize thai. the country wants none of it; therefore they call themselves tariff reformers now. Ko matter what the tariff may be, .in their opinion it always needs “re­ forming,” and always will need reform­ ing so long as there is protection in it. In all tlie talk of the necessity for tariff reform, there is yet lacking a specific and distinct utterance as to the particulars In which it needs to be re-' formed. TLe present law is admitted, even by the tariff reformers, to be a good working instrument. They claim in general terms that it has defects; but when it comes from generalities to particulars, there i,. no agreement among them. The prosperity of the country is based upon the protective tariff. Every suggestion for tariff reform is a sug­ gestion for the -withdrawal of protec­ tion in some degree from some indus­ try. EveiT: reopening- or threatened reopening of the tariff question is a disturbance to business. There is no particular and specific change or re­ form in the present law for which any large number of people are clamoring. There is no industry or interest which can point to any considerable injury re­ sulting to it from any particular clause, paragraph or schedule of the present law. W hat clear and understandable reasons do the *.ariff reformers give why the business of the country should be disturbed by the reopening of this question? Certainly none has yet seen the light. There has been much phrase­ mongering about the “tariff sheltering monopolies” and the like, but this is all. The Ohio idea of “hands off,” other­ wise known as “stand pat,” is as good a policy for the country to follow In connection with the tariff as can read­ ily be conceived. It is the policy which has the warm approval of the business interests of the country; and by the business incerests is meant every, one. ■whose income is drawn directly or in­ directly from the production, manufac­ ture or sale of American products, whether of the factory or the farm. We know times are good now. Wc know that to “monkey” with the. tariff is tlie readiest, simplest, and most cer­ tain method ot disturbing business, lim­ iting production and postponing con­ templated improvements. There is no particular advantage to be obtained by reopening the tariff question, to com­ pensate 'for these certain disadvan­ tages. The law certainly does not need to be changed on account of the necessity of the Government itself; for the present law is nicely adjusted to meet the Gov­ ernment’s needs. The demand for change is put forward purely from political sources and for the sole pur­ pose of raising a political issue. Re­ publicans are urged to raise the 1 cry merely to forestall the action of the Democrats, -who are certain to raise it." Iiet them do so. Republicans may well be content to be judged by the results accomplished under the tariff law for which they are responsible, rather than to join with their enemies in discredit­ ing their own good work.—Seattle Post- Intelligencei-. Wlio Will Ho the OodRius ? “No political -maneuvres or evasions will prevent the tariff from being the issue of the next Presidential contest. Its shadow is already in the door.”— Philadelphia. Record. ' If there are any political maneuvres or evasions to- keep the tariff out of nest year’s Presidential contest they will be on . the side of the Democrats. Republicans are.not afraid of the tariff as an issue. They will welcome it as the governing issue. The Democrats may dodge and straddle in defining their tariff policy. Very likely they wiil. But not the Republicans. Their convention declaration will# we pre­ dict, be for Btraigbtout protection with­ out apologies or “trust sheltering” ad­ missions. . . . WooMSerTeThemltlellt.

POPULISTS NEXT YEAR Iilkely to Vote th e R epublican Tielcet 1« Large Numbers. Considerable comment has been caused in the West by the assertion of a leading Populist of Kansas that he believes the most of the old-timers of that party will support Roosevelt and the Republicans in next year’s National campaign, irrespective of ihe Democratic nominee, "whoever he may be. The Kansas City Journal expresses • the same idea, and gives as the reason that Populism in the West “was an organized protest against policies ■which were believed to have brought hard times upon the country. It was a desperate resort of agriculturists who •were willing to try anything that af­ forded a hope of relief. The restora­ tion of prosperity through the very agencies that the Populists had thought to be so destructive convinced them of their error, and now they desire tlie party under whose administration they are growing rich to continue in power.” This expresses the facts as we see them; and we must add also that the majority of the Populist party in the West, where that strange political movement originated, was drawn orig­ inally from the Republican ranks. They fell into error as to some of tint causes of the hard times from which tlicy suffered.and into the further error of endorsing erroneous policic-s as I lie remedy. Free silver, one of these, is now dead beyond the hope of resurj ec- tion. Moreover, they see the Bcpnb'i- can administration has checked the formation 0,£ trusts and combiues, and put existing ones in fear. The Demo­ crats talked violently against trusts, and accused the Republicans M favor­ ing them; yet when the Democratic party came into full power iu the Na­ tion In 1893, it did nothing whatever. So why should any Populist go to the Democratic party? Again, on the tariff the Populists aie with the Republican party. The prosperity which followed the enactment of the Dingley Jaw in 1897 showed them its value as giving the basis for great national prosperity. They are with, the Republicans in oppo­ sition to the evils of trusts; so are they regarding national - expansion. Tho Republican vote of the West for Roose­ velt in 1904 will be phenomenal.—To­ ledo Blade. AFriceless ,Texrel. The richest market in the world, ihe priceless jewel of commerce, is tlie market of the United States. The pro­ tective tariff holds its treasure secure to the American wage-earners and all the American people. This is the sim­ ple essence of protection. It is the car­ dinal -principle of the American tariff system which has been made a Na­ tional policy by the Republican party; which, with the control of the “trusts,” ■will be the great issue on -which Mr. Roosevelt.will go to the voters next yea.r asking them to elect him Presi­ dent of the United States--New York Press.

BINDERS MAY QUIT Trouble BreiTiag in Uncle Sam’s Big PrintSliop ASSISTANT FOREMAN THE CAUSE He Was Dismissed From the Service But the President Intervened In His Behalf and Trouble Follows. Washington, Special--President Barrett, of the local organization of bookbinders, announced that every book-hinder in the Government Print- Office and tlie members ot allied unions will quit work if W. A. Miller, assistant foreman in the Government Printing Office, whose dismissal from- that office, the President recently re­ voked, is permitted to resume work. The union gave‘out a statement recit­ ing the developments in the case and charging Miller with using scurrilous language about those employed under him and slandering the book-bihders’ organization, of which he was a mem­ ber. It is stated that the trouble origi­ nated in a charge against Miller; that the charge was considered by a com­ mittee empowered to adjust differ­ ences; that Miller not only refused to make an explanation to a member of the committee deputized to call on him, but spoke in an insulting man­ ner. “Our organization/’ the state­ ment recites, “does not or cannot dic­ tate the policy of conducting affairs of the bindery in the Government Printing Office. Miller’s methods were most unbusiness-like of any foreman In the office and his tactics in pun­ishing men under him were contemp­ tible. In the office and public places he made use of scurrilous and abusive epithets about employes, causing a distrust in his division as to perma­ nence of employment” He also is charged by the union with having sought to influence legislation derogatory to the interests of the so­ ciety. The statement closes as fol­ lows: “The union has never re­ quested Mr. Miller’s discharge from the Government Printing Office. It should be noted, however, that our constitution forbids us to work with a suspended or expelled member. We learned that Mr. Miller had been dis­ charged on legal charges preferred by the Public Printer in accordance with the civil service laws. Our evidence clearly demonstrated that he had con­ tinually abused the Public Printer in public places.” The statement makes personal alle­ gations against Miller and says that affidavits have been placed in the hands of the proper officials for full and complete investigation. Mr. Mil­ ler is now in Minneapolis. Qovernment ‘ Stands Pat. ” Washington, Special. — Notwith­ standing the publication of dispatches Erom various foreign fcities questioning the extent o£ the promises made to the American government by China and Russia respecting Manchuria, the offi­ cials here positively decline to add to or take one word from the statement published from Washington, just be­ fore the departure of Secretary Hay to the effect that satisfactory'assurances had been received that two or more Ma" churian ports would be opened to the world’s trade. It is quite certain that China, which is here regarded as the sovereign power in Manchuria, made these pledges, and it is equally certain that the United States govern­ ment fully intends that they shall be kept. The details referred to in the original statement as required adjust­ ment are still unsettled, but the State Department is patient resting in full confidence of the opening of the ports required within a reasonable length ot time. It is true, as stated in the Lon­ don dispatches, that Japan looks with suspicion upon the Russian pledges relative to Manchuria and has inti­ mated to the-State Department that they aro not satisfactory, but so far the Department sees no reason to ac­ cept that view. Negrross Broke Jail. St. Louis, Special—Th® jail at Brook­ lyn, a suburb of East St. Louis, across the river from here, was broken open Sunday night by a mob of negroes, whose desire it was to lynch one of their own color for an attempted as­ sault on a negro woman earlier in the day. Wm. Carter, the negro prisoner, was hurried from the jail by Village Marshal Speed, who took him in a roundabout way to Bast St. Louis, for safe-keeping after the mob had broken open the doors with a railroad tie. There were no other prisoners :n the jail at the time. W ashington Uncertain. Washington, Special;—Inasmuch as***the Chinese government very recently has expressed its willingness to yield to the desires of the United States for open ports In Manchuria, the officials here are at a loss to understand the communication sent by Prince Ching to Minister Conger refusing this con­ cession. They have received no ad­ vices on the subject. ' - Chiaa Refuses to Open Ports. Pekin, By Cable.—Prince Ching, the president of the Foreign Office, has written to United States.

In his letter he dwells upon ’ the impossibility of China opening to for­ eigners towns which are*hot In her possession, but which are held by Rus­ sian troops,, and points out the -'com­plications which would be likely to fol­ low..

Br. M. 0. Gee is one of the physicians who endorse Peruna. In a letter written from 513 Jones stfeet, San Francisco, Calv he says:“There is a general objection on the part of the practicing physician to advocate pat­ent medicines, but when any one medicine cures hundreds of people it demonstrates its own value and does not need the in­dorsement orthe profession. ilP erttna has perform ed so m any wdnderf ul cures In San Franolsot that I am convinced that It Is a valuable remedy.

Dr. Charles Wood of Phila­ delphia has a story which he tells “on the excellent authority of Mr. Booker T. Washington.” A negro had a dream in which he thought he visited - purgatory. He was telling a friend about it next morning, when the friend interrupted him, asking: “Was there any niggers there?” “Yaas, sir, there was lots of them,” was the reply. “Any white men?” “Yaas, sir, lots of them.” , “What were the white men doing?” “Every one of them was holding a nigger ’tween him and the fire,” said the dreamer.. Fatal Heart D sease. Statistics compiled by the Boston Board of Health show that heart dis­ ease is now second only to consump­ tion, as a destroyer of human life, in, Boston, and that the number of an­ nual deaths caused by it i3 increasing at such a rate that consumption may soon be relegated to second place.' In 1901 heart disease killed 963 Boston­ ians; in 1902 it caused the death ot 1,033. Thus far this year the deaths from it show a further increase. The percentage of deaths from heart dis­ ease has been steadily increasing for many years, while that of deaths from consumption has been decreasing. G B T W E L L - S T A Y W E L L .

There are some people in this world who do not konw the diff­ erence between acting the gentle­ man, or being a ,fool. Such have our sympathy. Zeb B.

Enormous quantities of timber is being eut, and hauled to Mocks- vi lie to the factories, and to be shipped off on . the Railroad. What are our people going to do for tim­ ber alter awhile? It’s a question, and a sericus cue at that. Some men cannot enjoy success, and prosperity, they are not. large enough to contain such blessings. You cannot pour a gallon of oil in­ to a quart can, nor can you put a big brain into a cymbling, C. M. Sheets, traveling for the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., with headquarters in S. 0. was in town everal days ago, shaking hands with his friends. Charles seems to like his job, and is succeeding very well from what we can hear. Eev.'

The Pope of Rqme, Leo XIII, the -head of the Catholicchuvch, a man of-great ability,as a diplomat, and statesman as. well as a pure upright churchman died last week The world is worse.qff in the death of such a pure holy man. DaDiel Webster it yvas we be­ lieve, who said that, “While truth was putting on its boots in Maine, a falsehood would travel to the gulf of Mexico.” Its the same to-day. The Bible says. “The poor ye shall have with-you always,” and it’s the same with.falsifiers. J. A. Naylor who has filled the position of clerk at the Postoffice for nearly a year has resigned, and will go h ofiie and take a rest pre­ paratory to entering school about the first of September. ‘ John has made a faithful, honest and effici­ ent clerk and we hate to give him up. God pity the man who has nei­ ther couimon sense nor gratitude, a more pitiable human being does not walk the earth than such an one, yet the country is cursed by jnst such.two legged animals eall- iug themselves men fashioned af­ ter God’s image. Littleness is the preponderating characteristic of small narrow minds. Show me a man who . does little contemptible things, and we will show you one with little brains and who cannot help . acting the fool on all occasions. While con­ temptible, they deserve pity ra­ ther than censure. * Theagentsofthe Chicago Por­ trait Company have, iu 7 days sent out of Davie County through the P. O. at Moeksville §152,45. We respectfully refer these figures to the Fork Church Hornet. We think it indicates money in Ihe county with a little Republican prosperity flung in for good meas­ ure. Davie county Republicans have been maliciously slandered more than once by . .certain ones of the Den osratic machine"; The people have weighed these inalici ous sla- nde.s in the scales and nearly every election have increased the Repu­ blican vote, The same result will, follow the latest scheme of the slanderers, just make our majori ty higher for 1901. We were in Winston One day last week and heard some of its citizens kieking over the inequali­ ty of the assessment of the pro­ perty in Winston. If that wise legislature' which passed the act to raise the value of property had done its duty it would have pro­ vided a state board of equalization Itis impossible to have any thtug like equality m valuatiou between the counties, and this should have been provided tor by all means.

Grant Sunday at his home at 11 o’clock A. M. came as a shock to our people. He had been complaining for about two ,veeks but had not been confined to his bed but a few days. Sunday about 10’ocloek his father was In to see him and he asked for a chew of tobacco, soon afterwards he dnmfc some ice milk and water and went into convul­ sions and died. The cause of death was superinduced by the affects of smallpox from which disease he had recently partially- recovered. South was 29 years of age, the oldest son of A, T Grant Sr. He leaves a wife and two children, to them and the father, brother and sisters we extend our sympathy in this great affliction. Theremains were laid to rest Mon­ day evening in tlie Rose burial ground, near his mother so recent­ ly deceased. The funeral services were* conducted by Ilev. W, L. Sherrill. A Favorite Method ODe of the favorite methods of machine Democracy, is. abuse of men who have quite their party ••-.nd joined the Republicans. It shows their littleness, and vile ness* Freemen have a right to ex­ ercise their God given rights of voting and affiliating with the party of their choice, and atoms and denunciation does not change or alter that right. Mr, Owen of Kentucky who presided over the National Democratic convention of 1892 which nominated Grover Cleveland, presided over the state Republican convention of Ken­ tucky a few days ago, and deliver­ ed one of the strongest Republi­ can speeches we have read lately. Our Democrayie friends will have plenty of this dirty work to do in North Carolina next year, for they are coming to us. - ' ' .

Pcrsperity. “Republican prosperity” is the greatest fable of the age.”—Fork Ohurclx Hornet. “The - Hottest Democratic paper in America.” ; It is folly to say our people in this State are not prosperous, or that every one who is willing to work and capable cannot have good living employment. This couutry is prosperous, Durham is specially' prosperous as well as hospitable.—Raleigh Post Democratic. The above- is taken from two Pemocratic papers.' They contra­ dict each other, one is true, the other false. The one says the horse is white, the other says it is black. That is Democratic harmo­ ny, that’s how close they are get­ ting together.
