We are not willing to believe that the dominant, white race of Uorth Carolina, as represented in the General Assembly in session at Raleigh, will take a step toward cutting off the educational "pros pects of the negroes. ‘We owe much to these people. Their, val ue to the State is not to becompiit- ed by the figure they cut on the tax books. They are our labor. They dig out of the soil a large part of the wealth which we enjoy, and surely they are entitled to a part of that which they' make. It is not right to shut the door of opportuni ty iu their faces. As a race they (are not capable of high intellectual development, but, child for ehikl, they should have equal chances with the other of onr population, and we do not .understand how a person who would consigu them to mental oblivion can sleep well at night. The negro race is full of frailties and infirmities, but it also has excellencies and the superior people owe obligations to it which are by no means to be disregarded. For the credit of the white people of Xo> th Caroline let us have done with the talk about dividing the school tax upon the basis of what each race pays, —Charlotte Obser ver. Yon have reckoned without your host. Bro. Caldwell. Your party promised in 1800 with the adoption of the amendment and the elimina- nation of the negro as a voter to give the people a rest on this race issue; yet, for the two following campaigns your crowd has sqnalled “nigger,” just the same. A great inauy members of the legislature were elected by appealing to this prejudice, and in Older to keep it alive they must introduce resolu tions and bills, aud proposed con stitutional amendments bearing on this race issue. Eveu Gov. Glenn, in the East, sowed the seeds in or der to get the delegates to procure his nomination; and Dir. Winborne sounded the note of.warning a few days ago in an interview in Raleigh that the Democrats would lose the East. It’s a case of preying upon the people by appealing to their prejudices and worst instincts. You have sowed, and the people are reaping the tares sowed by the designing politicians. It’s ouly a question ot time when the proper ty owners will want to chauge the constitution so that their property cannot lietaxedtoed irate the poor white children. In the 1900 cam paign Democracy' promised and pledged itself to the education of the boys, swearing that no white man would be disfranchised by rea son of the ameudment. The time has more than half gone, aud thou sands are uneducated. Right here in Mocksville we have men who oppose the establishment of graded schools. IVhy% Because they'do not w.int. their property taxed. One such, a short time ago, said He was in favor ot a graded school il it could be supported by a poll tax only. Another said those who ad vocated the graded school were in favor of educating the “ niggers,” which show a disposition to see the whites grow up in ignorance and be disfranchised, rather than see a few negroes go to school—punish the w'hites in order to keep the ne gro in ignorance. It’s a strruge theory, andasmallandlittledispos- ition that thinks the white people should plan aud scheme to keep the negro in ignorance. From oiir youth up we have been taught that education enligliteus and elevates; yet,the small calibered few are try- i Hg to teach to the con trary. Statis tics show that the great majority of criminals are ignorant and the elimination of iguorance is the best investment an enlightened State can make. Down with this preju dice and littleness. Ic shows that w a r e retrograding, and that the twentieth century civilization is of a lower order than that of the ISth and 19th. We are for schools and every other institution that will make us better and banish I nc- rance and prejudice. Briug the ne gro from his native home, A rioa make a slave of him; let him cut down the foretts, cultivate the broad fields and ma,ke the wealth of many, who, today, would, be poor, aud after his liberty is given him deny and deprive him of the privilege of becoming euligliteueA in this day of 20th century civili zation. “Justice and Mercy arc thehabitatious ot His throne” . The little demagogue is in the saddle in Uorth Carolina. For sname, in deed . K I L L t h e C O U G H AND C U R E THE LUW CSl WITH Dr. King's Nssr Disssvery FOR CS Dividing School Taxes. “If the 'principle of dividing school taxes according to theamount paid by each race is right, how about the general fund and the special taxes as they are levied for the maintenance of courts, high ways. et.” —Raleigh Post, Jan. 24. PRIUCIPLE I Why should the Post pretend to. be “ innocent aud incredulous” as did the Charlotte Observer when it pretended to be fooled by the slick fraud perpetrat ed by “somebody” in making the “Jug-Law” apply to the whole State when it was only inteuded to apply to four counties named in the original draft of the bill?. There is no principle involved,or rather it were better to Say intend ed be applied to this Winborne bill that is intended to deprive the colored public schools fiom partic ipating in the public school fund All there is In this proposed ancend- ment-is to keep the negro in per petual ignorance and to cultivate crime—shut him off from education al advantages and fill the peniten tiary with criminals, and while the people are taxed for the education of the masses, and in addition ap propriate $200,000 per annum to keep the schools open four months in the year, this Winborne bill would cut the colored schools down to two. three or four weeks iu the year, and in some districts , to no school at all. It doesn’t take a sear to see through t he gauzy thing, and the Post does see through it, but it prefers to deal with it on Principle rather than acknowledge the weakness in its party armor— knowing that .the bill is inteuded to cut a figure iu the election of 1908. If submitted to a vote at the next election and forced through by friiud and intimidation, like the other amendment, was. and becomes a constitutional law', many thou sands of negroes will be deprived of their votes under the edncatioual qualification feature of the late red-shirt amendment. Itis simply another nigger iu another wood pile and the Post knows it, and why not ca’l a spade a spade. However, if the Post can aid (and it can) iu defeating this outrageous and tin patriotic bill,on what it may deem a higher plane we shall applaud its righteous efforts aud point to the act as a hopeful sign. To argue this questiou with this ' -'negro hat i ng’ ’ class (to quote from Col Olds) would, in onr opinion, surperlatively asseuiue—for if the fundamental principles upon which the government is based, were in volved, to perdition with them all, rather than give the negro an equal chance ivith the white children iu education? They' fear that the ne gro will acquire education under the constitution that will give him the right to vote—and that is the milk in the coacoaunt. The col ored race is making progress aloug these Hues aud these “negro hat ing” Democrats know it. aiid this, proposed ameudment is to give that patient, docile, wealth-producing race oiily the money derived from their impoverished condition, that they may be kept iu the slavish bonds of ignorance. Aml why?. The last election wrote it on the wall iu startling characters that Democracy must go. Democrats are looking at the figures—83,000 WHITE VOTES— a Democratic loss of over 50,000. and t..ey see a host of colored vo ters coming ou the stage of action, that will vole, and the majority, perhaps vote the Republican tick et—and, presto! the Democrats are unhorsed, routed—shorne of their lease of power—that lease that was won through frand, tyrany, iutim idation and constitution amend ments secured by red shirts, shot guns, aud every other conceivable devlish art that could be concocted, and this hand-writing on the wall has frightened the “ negro hating” Democrats and another constitu tional amendment is the result. W hile we believe- and they fear it—that the white people alone will defeat the Democracy in 1908, the boss Democrats propose to safe guard the tottering party w hen ever there is a suspicion of a chance of a loss on their part, or a Repub- ; lican gain. Every act of a public character proposed by this legisla ture, so far. iooks to the perpetua tion of power. It does us prond” to see the Post take such strong grounds against this dastardly piece of leg islation. It is the machine propo | sitiou and wilt-be, very probably, j submitted to the people; but if the Post, the Charlotte Observer and other powerful,influential papers of that party stand to their teachings of today, the people will defeat it.

In replying to the editor of the Charlotte Observer the editor of the Biblical Recorder assures Hon. Joseph Caldwell that the Jng-Law was not fraudulently made a law; but became such a law by “acci dent,” though the Hon. Josiah Bailey' does not explain how that peculiar accideut occured, or when it oectired; but.assumes that as Jo- siah Bailey, editor of the Biblical Recorder,- and chief apostle of the Watts law, vouches for the bill as “accidental,” that is all sufficient, —spoken as one in authority—but what is worrying us is Caldwell’s reply. Is it. a surrender to Josiabf au acknowledgement, that, coming from such high authority', it must be “accidental.” and nos even a taint of fraud in it? or is it a fine piece of sarcasm that eats into the very marrow! Wc think there is very little in the first deduction, but a barrel full of sarcasm; any way yon take it, it’s nice reading the lines and between the lines. There is, in these pipiug times, an awful state of deception, and a mighty effort to make your best friend believe white is black aud black is white, and most people are getting color blind. We don’t see much four square honesty iu any of it. Magna est vervitas ct prevalebit. Indications. The indications are that pro claiming from the stump the glo ries of local self-goverr.inentds to be suspended in Uorth Carolina—at least so far as members of the legis lature are concerned.—Charlotte Observe. That- has long been apparent to every thoughtful observer. The bosses and masters are in the-sad- dle, and the old saying that the people rule is a thing of the past. Soiitlicrii Democracy is fast teach ing the people the art of deception . Plans and schemes are made by the bosses aud kept profoundly secret until the masters and rulers assem ble in legislative couelave, and then the mask is thrown off. Retribu tive justice will overtake them after awhile. HOLLISTER’S Rocky fountain Toa .Nuggets A Busy Uodidne for Bnsy People. Brings Golden Health and Benewed Vigor.

In th e S enate bills w ere introduced to require th e u se of broad w ire and not barbed along th e side of roads; to prohibit th e sale of liquor in five m iles of Gold H ill. B ills passed abolishing th e th re e days of grace and proper to I4Bpeai atty Iiw Ifiiich had been enacted by m istake. G raham , (Si G ranville, favored re-com m itm ent of th e bill,, as did Stew art, of H arnett, and A lexander, 6f M edkieiiiiufgi Koonce of Onsioiv, opposed postponem ent, say ing it w as generally understood during th e cam paign, and he had so stated to his constituents, th a t the law would be repealed because it w as tainted w ith error, if no t w ith fraud. He had th e authority of th e distinguished chair m an of the D em ocratic com m ittee for the assurance th a t as a m atter of course th e law w ould be repealed. W arren, of Jones, said th e law w as no t m ade an issue in th e cam paign in I is section, because it w as universally considered th a t as a m atter of course it w ould be repealed. T his is th e only m anly course to pursue, and then, if it is desired, another bill giving an anti-jug law to th e entire State could be introduced and stand on its m erits. Men high in authority in N orth C arolina had led the people to believe this law w ill be prom ptly repealed so far as it related to territory not included in th e bill. H e opposed any postponem ent M urphy, of Row an, said he had.no objections to an anti-jug law of those counties wisose m em bers desired it, bu t w as n o t In fa vor of postponing action in repealing the law covering the w hole State. The people expected to see th e law re pealed prom ptly, and yet here it was th e 20th day of th e session, and the bill to repeal had been held back and now it was proposed to still fu rth er postpone it. M itchell, of B ertie, favored the repeai w ithout any further post ponem ent, saying it w as w ell-know n how he stood on th e tem perance ques tion and how th e liquor influence tried to defeat him In the last cam paign, but he could not rest contented a m om ent w ithout voting th e repeal of the pres ent lav/, passed inadvertently. H e be lieved an anti-jug law could be passed by this L egislature to cover this whole State, but w hether th a t w as so or not, it would be unpardonable and un m anly to allow th e law as a t present construed by the Suprem e C ourt to re m ain on th e statutes. Roberson said he would vote for an anti-jug law for the whole State, but w as unalterably opposed to delay another m om ent in voting to repeal th e present law. H e felt th a t th e construction placed by the Suprem e C ourt m aking the law uni versal, w as good law , yet a t the sam e tim e it am ounted to an adm ission of w ant of care on the p art of th e Legis lature, and as a form er m em ber he could not m ake am ends any too soon. Biggs followed In th e sam e strain. R iburn said he w as glad to know all m em bers acquitted the author of the lo cal anti-jug law of any intention to in clude th e State under the pretense of a local m easure. H e said he v a s the p artn er of Mr. H oey, ti e introducer of the bill tw o years ago, and knew th a t Hoey never dream ed of th e act hav ing a general application. H e strongly favored repealing th e present law , ex cepting for ti e counties it wa3 draw n to cover. M cNinch w ithdrew his am end m ent, saying fce hoped his purpose w ould not be m isconstrued. H e gave notice th a t he w ould introduce a bill Co enact an anti-jug law for the State. D avis w ithdrew his m otion to recom m it and the bill passed, on roll call, Sti to SI, th e follow ing posting no: Canady, F eim ster, Gower, G raham , of L incoln; Jones, McGill, McQueen, Olive, Redding, Stronach, Taylor, of Vance* Thagagrif, W ade, W ebb, W est, of B la den; W est, of Cherokee; W illiam s, W ood, ’ Pow ers, of R utherford, and Young. In explaining w hy he voted no, Fow ers said he believed a bird in th e hand w as w orth tw o in th e bush. On the third reading of th e bill th e fol low ing counties asked to be exem pted from the operations of th e repealing bill: Caldwell, W atauga, B urke, R uth erford and R andolph. M cNinch begged m em bers to w ithdraw these am end m ents to have th e ir counties exem pted a t this stage of th e proceedings, say ing it would be robbing th e tem per ance forces of th eir victory and en dangering th e passage of an anti-jug law later on. T he am endm ent w as then v.ithdraw n and th e bill w as sent to the ' Senate. B ills passed final reading to validate judgm ents under w hich sales of contin gent rem ainders have been m ade, and to perm it trustees of deceased m ort gagees to renounce th e rig h t to fore close.

Mr. Adam Earnhart, of near the Hatter shop was trying to control a.fractious mule; the lines were drawn around his neck and the buckle cut it from one side to the other. Fortunateljr it was not deep enough to open the jugular veins or wind pipe. The doctor put in several stiehes and he ;s uow doing iairly well. We hope all readers of The Record will remem ber that it is very unwise to plow or haul with the lines over the neck. Rev.

Though put up in coarser form than Thedford’s Black-Draught, reno^vned for the cure of the digestion troubl.es of persons, it has the same qualities of invigorating digestion, stirring up the torpid liver and loosening the constipated bowels for all stock and poultry. It is carefully pre pared and its action is so healthful th at stock grow and thrive w ith an occasional dose in their food. It 'Cures hog cholera and makes hogs grow fat. It cures chicken cholera and roup and makes hens lay. It cures constipation, distemper and colds in horses, m urrain in cattle, and makes a draught anim al do more work for the food consumed. I t gives animals and fowls of all kinds new life. Every farm er and raiser should certainly give it trial. It costs 25c. a can and saves tea times its price in profit.

Advance Bill Postponed. The House committee on liquor traffic had a large audience and many speeches for the Senate hill forprohibition at Advancef DaTie county. Representative Grant, of Davie, opposed action, and Victor Boydeu, an attorney representing the opponents seemed postpone ment until W . A. Bailey, largely interested in investments at A d vance, who was sick ,could be heard in opposition to the bill. The mat ter was left open until Tuesday, February 14th .- Col. Olds in Charlotte Observer. There is a slight halt in liquor legislation—that is, these drastic measuies that sweep everything before them vrithout deliberation or due considers tion. The Seuate last week jumped upon Advance as if it were debauched to the lowest de gree, and everybody, to a preacher of the gospel characterised the town a “ hell on earth”—which had its effect, and of cour.se the bill pass ed. But these leading fanatics are over-reaching themselves, and it is not surprising that the more kslike the prohibition wing conservative in the legislalurebe- ( [twUenwrriitie party was swip- jcome alarmed at such “ wild-ejed” in!?lip everything iu sight and leaving Hiss Democracy to “ chaw the :l B eoreof long haired men and short liturcd « o in ? n -they are fa- ,,atic-s or tranks of some kind, and ,bey abound in the prohibition camp. \s to temperance and the liquor lnuiness in this State the legisla ture is the whole thing—the Watts law or any other law, or the peo ple be damned—and that’s not pro fanity, either.

If the I’em,KTatii- party favors prohibition and insists upon it, why ilo they not submit the question to vdters of the State That is the only manly, honorable, patriotic,or jiift way to deal with this question. Aie theyafraiil of the people! Theareiiunts ought to be closed between President Itoiisevelt and and IhcSiiiilh as to the admixture ol the two races. The great body of the American people don’t be lieve a word nf what the ranting, dcuiogogical politicians of theSouth say. Time, ihe grace of God and President Reoscvelt have set to naught siieli insane gibberish. % the way, when the legislature tots through destroying property Md businesses that yield a large portion of the State’s revenue, lfIicre is the money to come from to pay increased salaries; *97,000 iu- CHSiBe of pensions: !1OO1OOO for the StsteUniversity; the huudreds of llioasandsof dollars for our charit able institutions and other iustitu- linns; fur monuments, salaries of aaemPloyed employees (political Perqnisitcs) and the myriads of of- holders at princely salaries aud too thousand and one avenues down "Web money, galore, must pass ontofthe hands ol the treasurer— auliroPtcy as sure as fate!

A great uutlSh was made aud everybody ti t>^*u f'*1’ it; eloquent “ora- ons I were pronounced in favor retrenchment aud reform” and " tobtSin nght there, in that w at JJ (m legislation We believe in the voice -of the people. We believe iu local op tion, so called; that is, every com munity deciding the liquor ques tion to swit that community. Des troy that principle and you tear down the structure builded by the fore-fathers—the rock of liberty; hence, we are opposed to the legis lature enacting drastic and unpa- friotic measures, without first sub mitting them to the people. The violence with which the pro hibitionists push this kind of leg islation is as certaiu to cause a re action as that the sun shine. A fa- naticim that once gets hold of the people leads them often to ex- ti ernes, be that temperance prohi bition, anarchy, socialism, labor- uuious, trusts, or anything that lias for its object the beuetit of a class, opposed, to the good of the massts. Some one in the IIoase, the other day said the members --Democratic IiieiiiD ers; were elected on the pro hibition questiou and that it was their duty to euact all the prohi bition legislation they could. Ed itor Bailey of the Biblical Recorder says that Uov. Gleun was nominat ed by the temperance element and owes his position to the temperance people, aud because tne Governor is a “m ile” lukewarm on the ques tion Editor Bailey lashes him with his Biblical whip. This halt, just now, means some thing; the extremists are driving at a break neck speed, and it |is rule or rniu with them. WhAt this check means time aloue will tell, for it is hard to halt a" craze to get results until it. has ruu to the end of its tether, and then there is sure to be a reaction and a reversal. It has been the case in almost every Statein the Union. South Caro lina is making war on the dispen saries of that State because it has become a great evil—it is doomed, and Tillman’s power is breaking up, and we 3,11 know how the craza boomed for awhile —just so long as the people were fooled,—such ex treme measures to accomplish a good over-ride the rights of men and trample upou individual lib erty and retard the general welfare of the commonwealth. Legislation, where it does not in fringe upon these, anil arbitrarily, or by force of might, enact laws, drastic and unpatriotic, should take such action as is the will of the people. If prohibition is the desire of the majority of the people of the State, submit the question to a vote and let’s wipe the stnff out o f the State, and have done with jt. Thelegislature has no right to force laws upon the people they are opposed to: it has no right to force laws upon the people not kuowing what they (the people) want. This little-borrough or that little ham let or some great city may desire prohibition and, given a fair and lawful chance, let them say so by the voice of the people, the safe guard against fanatics or tyrants. So, we look upon this temperance craze by arbitrary legislations, like all other crusades, as resultant in some gpo4—^that is, I hut part that lives; but regard them short-lived, because of their extremes and vi olence, and their unseeming regard for the rights oi man. LOBBY I SG. Erlitor W . K. Clement, of the Davie Times, Mocksville. returned to his home yesterday afternoon af ter spending several days among the members of the legislature in thp interest of the bill to provide prohibition for the town of Ad vance.* *Rev. W. M. Cur tis, pastor of the Methodist church at Advance, who has been here for sever.il days lobbying in thp inter est of the Advance prohibition bill left yesterday afternoon for his home. He went to Chapel Hill for a day or two. He will return to Raleigh for the hearing Feb. 14th, Raleigh Post. There you are, preacher and pol itician, playing the sariie game, The preacher looking after politi cal class legislation. Col. Clement admitted last, week, before the leg islative committee that his object was moral and political—guess the preacher is in th j same boat—as they vote the same kind of tickets. We think thepreaclier is out of his place, stirring up strife among his parishioners iustead of pouring oil on the troubled waters. He might lead some of these men to quit the whiskey business, but drive them, uever! Whenever the preachers of our country get down on the level with the politician the cause for which they are called suffers. In our opinion the gentleman is out of his place, but he is his own judge in this matter. The Tar Heel Club’s banquet at Greensboro on the 22nd, bids fair to be a great success.

Introduced a thousand and more, perhaps, bills, resolutions, amend ments, memorials, etc., and“cliaw- eil” over the whiskey question to the cost of the tax payers many thousands of dollars, aud wasted a cart- load of fool’s-cap paper; writ ing amendments to the Watts law; amendments to the constitntion, to take away the rights of the colored people; reformatory measures ga lore. and talked about appropri ations; Gov. Bob'ssalary, the Jud ges increase;of erecting monuments; building State houses and monkey ing with the unemployed employ ees who continue to draw their pay as religiously as they did before anything was said about retrench ment; pensions, the hobby of every legislator, politician aud officeseek- er; bicycle riding on sidewalks in scrub towns and all about hogs sleeping under churches where the fleas had a cheerful habit of runn ing up the legs of the Dominie and getting close to his spinal column where he could’t scratch—and these are but a few of the things which' the people are paying over a thou sand dollars g. day for. Some of the more insignificant bills and res olutions have passed the rubieon, bnt with the exception of pass ing prohibition measures and des troying property contrary to the letter and spirit of the Watts law, we fail to discover anything of importance. We presume when they get all this conglomerated mass of buncombe, etc., completed they will b«»cM t and oinimbus it through—every man for himself and the devil lor the hindmost. There seems to be a drop in the liquor legislation, in the past few days. The ^wiping out process” lately adopted by the legislature and which struck Advance, in this county last week by the Senate i with brass-hand fringes, is held up j in the House for the present. Ward’s bill to amend the Wqtts law, regulating the sale of liquor j in North Carolina, met with stern; opposition in tbe House W ednes-: day and action was postponed tin- j til the 14th inst. There was a de-1 termined effort to have the bill act-! ed upon at once— force it through;' but there were men there who were on tbe “ inside” of politics and a, little on the outside of fanaticism, i and they sat down on it, tempora-' rily. It looks as if the prohibition par ty was getting bigger Uian the Democracy. It would not surprise us if this “ rock” isn’t the one that is to split the Democratic party in twain. Tbe fanatics are over-reach ing themselves and the Democratic machine politicians are sniffling tbe air and they smell spmethiug be sides sow-paw apd mash-tuts.

T he ability to preach sermons may be quite different from the ability to reach souls. It is better to live one verse of th$ Bible th an to be able to preach a Jour, them all. W e seldom look to God for the Water of L ife u n til som e other springs have, dried. T he church th a t runs behind on thfe preacher’s salary is not likely to run ahead on spiritual power.

CUSTOMS OF THE LASCARS. Have Many Peculiarities, but Make Good Sailors. Som e of th e peculiar customs of the E a st Indian coolies, called Lascars,, are very am using to us. For instance, they alw ays ea t their food in tbe open, air, w ith th e ir faces toward the west; and th e g reatest insult a white man or “G iaour” can offer them is to walk betw een them and the sun while the, are eating, causing his shadow to fall on th e ir food, w hich immediately be com es unclean. T heir appearance is rendered pecu liar by th eir h ab it of shaving their heads, leaving but one tuft at the, side for “th e prophet” to drag them into paradise by. W hen m arried they w ear a ring on th e ir big toe. They stand the cold rem arkably w ell, and make good sail ors, being as active as monkeys. In running aloft they ignore the ratlins,, an d use th e backstays, a perpendicu la r w ire rope, w hich they literally w alk up. SOUTHERN RAILWAY.

The Rowan Republicans aresiuil- ing at the Kruggle over the present prices of cotton, and are expecting to get 10 cents in the spring, or 12} in the fall. We do not claim to be extremely ignorant; but there is a difference of opinions as to what part of a cent point in the cotton market is. Some say 40 points make a cent; some say it takes a hundred. Will The iiecord give us the right defi nition of a point!

More State Bonds, W e didn’t think it would come so soon—knew it was bound to come; but Representative Webb sprung it on the legislature last week —a bill to authorize the State to issue $500,000 iu bouds, and the Charlotte Observer perfunctorily endorses it. Two years ago the same kind of a legislature bonded the State for like amount—$1,000,- 000 iu two years! Democracy is a luxury to be sure; but it comes high! If it were not for bonding the State—selling bonds to get mon ey, the managers of the insane asy lums would have to close the doors of these and other cbaritv.ble insti tutions, for that is what they say the money is for; but no one but a blamed fool believes a word of that kiud of stuff. The people pay taxes cheerfully to support these institu tions and the money is in the treas ury for that purpose; but the leg islature must first increase salaries, build monuments, rebuild the Cap itol,pay themselves a thousand dol lars a day, and their pet political strikers $ i and $5 a day; pay their treasurer hundreds of dollars for nothing—O, the list is too long to follow; absorbing all the money in the treasury for every other pur pose before first taking care of the States unfortunate wards. Why? because to issue bonds for any oth- purpose would be unpopular. Mo ney must come and they play upon the incredulity of the people to get it,tosave their political necks—it is a masterly incompetent, reckless, extravagant body, incompetant to deal with State matters. Surely this balderdash; pretence at legis lation will not longer fool the peo ple. There is a limit to all things, and it strikes us the Democratic party has reached the limit. It is hardly possible for them to do worse. TheCharlotte Observer is gettiug alarmed at the progress the legis lature is making, aud reads that bodyof statesmen a lesson—mild of course -but still a lesson, aud wares them against iutemperate temperance legislation, and reminds them that they have already vio lated the JVatts law by establishing phohibition in towns and counties, contrary to that law and without the consent of t..e people—uneasy aete the crown on Miss Democracy. The Immigration Bureau pro- P**d by the legislature will carry *<th it an expense of $10,100—ex pensive ! and if it is expended along lines Senator Simmons proposes, ^ortb Carolinians will get mighty Mek of tbeir new accessions—that Bi from the European countries.

It Soj to thunder with •°®r Immigration Bureau. it is strange a Democratic admiu- istratioa can’t run the State with- ’ issuing bonds to pay expenses. «« Republicans did that little ,n?) and didn’t half try, and ere was no sentimental blubber- >“g over the insane aud pensioners, eiteerI and these were cared for, there was no kick comi ng. . The ® ution is that Democratic admin* wtrations are incompetent to eon- uuct the affairs of the Statewisely *w economically. This South Da- *ta University bond ease is a sam ple of their work,—honest bonds, ^ ith n o ta in t o f fra ttd a l ) w t th em — Iiv r ^ eCharlotte Observer says Iu Virginia they say this anti liquor craze is not a question of prohi.ition and Democracy. In Yorth Carolina the Democrats s.iy it is. That is the difference in the Democracy in Virginia and North Carolina. Io Viiginiathey are for local self-government, and any other course would be suicidal; in North Carolina opposed to self-govern ment and iu favor of arbitrary laws that take away oae’s manhood aud hisinailienabie rights—denying the citizen the right to express his judg ment aud wishes. Iu North Caro lina Deniocracy means prohibition aud iyrauy; In Virginia Democracy means self-government and liberty of thought and freedom of action, as compared to the Democracy of North Carolina. IfState Treasurer Lacy is sick as reported we are. not surprised. His persistent demand that the legisla ture appropriate $374.84 to reim burse him on account of the Martin theft, is enough to make a hog sick. W ell, they gave it to him. The Raleigh Post wants him to refuse it, but the Rhleigh Times says the devilment has been done aud that it will do Mr. Laey no good now to decline to accept it after his log rolling to get it—and otherwise scortches him. If that honest old P o p ,ex treasurer Worth was only a Democrat and bolding a fat office— one of the iin gsters-he would get the $16,000 for whieh he sold his home to pay back into the treasury that amount the thief Martin stole; but the good old fellow is, we sup pose, a good Pop yet; and if not, a Republican, and that is enough to shuthim out of any favors from this extreme partisan legislature. Stranger than Fiction. Eilitor Clements of the Davie Timesleftyesterdayfor his home in Mocksville. He will be back to take hand m the last round for the Advance prohibition bill ou the 21st. * * Rev. W . M, Cujjis, pastor of the Meshodist church at Advance, returned home yesterday after spending several days id the interest of the bill pending for pro hibition in that town to take the place of distilleries.—-Raleigh Post. A coincidence,—the above two items appeared in the Raleigh Post of the 10th; one, right after the other. The thing has happened before. One thing the Colonel fail ed to tell the committee, when he was before it, asking for prohibi tion at Advance, was the number Of hogs he is sloppingatoueof theYad- kin distilleries. It strikes us if one thinks distilleries morally wrong that he would not even patronize the slop department. Another strange thing: Rev. Mr. Curtis has accepted money f«t hirase'f and for paying tor the bouse he lives in from these same whiskey nien. It looks to us like the Biblical injunc tion, ‘-Touch not the unclean thing,” would come in somewhere. Truth is indeed stranger than fiction. No wonder there are so many people iu our country who have lost faith in these men who claim to be called of God. Justice and right are divine attributes. Make a man mad and your enemy, and you lose ail influence for good over Jhim. Driving is not entreating. In North Carolina larceny and receiving are both felonies. The man who receives stolen goods, knowing them to be stolen, is as guilty before the law as the thief. ,If it is morally wrong for men to make money distilling and selling whiskey, is -not the man who re ceives this money from distillers and sellersequally guilty if he takes and uses it? Cy Watson. ThepeopleofNorth Carolina will learn with deep sorrow and regret the fact that Hon. C. B. Watson is out in a card in defense of the li quor towns in the State. He is also reported to be in Raleigh as the at torney and lobbyist of Shore, Wil Iiams and Advance. Alter fight ing trusts all his life until mature and honorable old age he forsakes it all aud forms a copartnership with the devil and joins iu the tight to fasten upon the people of the State the ‘-hell kettle” whiskey trust that is at war with God aud man. Indeed be must have forsak en all hope of the future—politic ally and spiritual y .- Mascot. In 1896 Mr. Watson was a Dem ocratic candidate for Governor; two years ago he came near being elect ed U. S. Senator; today we find him standing by the fundamental prin ciples of his party, advocating the rights of the people to have a voice in their government; yet, one of these little fellows, who never smelled gun-powder is found tra- duciug this old confederate soldier, who for four years followed Lee and Jackson, until the battle flags were furled; coming back to his home, he found desolation; but never desparing. be went to work, and buildeil a name and a feme as one of the best lawyers in the State, and as well, a character; yet. these jackals, in their haste to destroy him, have forsaken the dead car cases for the living Cy Watson, for his good name to be tarnished in his old age by these little, con temptible defamers. Gov. Glenn; the Bib'.ical Re corder, says“writ”aletter for Glenn Williams, in which he urges the legislators to let Williams’ big, grandfather's distillery alone, For once we agree with ihe Biblical R e corder—we mean his religio-polit- co department—that if Advance, Richmond county, Asheville and other points are made to “ bite the .dust,” get Williams down on his marrow bones—wipe them all out —every mother’s son of them, and then see.ffihere you ore “at.” The vote in the House to table the minority report to wipe out the Advance dilleries Iostby a close vote—3 5 to 36- The distraction- ists got scared for once. This mat ter will come up for final action on the 21st. A s the prohibition whips are being applied vigorously—cat- o’-nine-tails, it is likely to suc ceed. That Advance preacher, who preaches in that ‘-hell hole” as he styles the town and the Mocks “ moralist and politician” will be on hand lobbying in the interest of the distruetionists. By the way we would like to ask the Charlotte Observer in reference to its excel lent “limitation” editorial, if the limit has been reached • or will it have been reached after Advance has been wiped out. Come, let’s have the limit. MR. k ir k s e v -s r e c o m m e n d a t io n M r.

You nre undoubtedly right ui say ing that the liquor question “is al ready in politics and will be an is sue In he next gubernatorial cam paign; the Democratic party will be as unwise, and moreso, to ignore that question as to recognize it aud deal frankly with it. In the judg ment of-a very large and rapidly increasing number of citizens, the liquor question is a more important issue than the question of educa tion or good roads and it will be as suicidal to ignore their judgment and wishes as to regard the wishes of the liquor element of the State. We can never hope to bring Vir- giniuto thehighest stateof prosper ity by placing the practical and po litical inter st above the moral. _ It is not a question of prohibition and Democracy, as you suggest, and I hope in future discussions of the matter you will emphasize that fact-. It is a question of local self- government and every county ,town or city should have the right to regulate or abolish the liquor trafic as it sees fit. If the Democratic party refuses to recognize and deal with this ques tion, we are in as much danger of having a Kepublican Governor and Legislatnreas if they recognized it. With the negro eliminated from politics in this State thousands of Democrats who believe in temper ance legislation and local self-gov ernment will not hesitate a moment to vote the Republican ticket it the nominees of that party promise to give them what they wan*-.

Very truly, WILLIAMS i f ANDERSOH entirely to the fact that, after hav ing received an order or instruc tions, could be relied upon to carry them out, and do it correctly, too. He Deverstarted off on anything half cocked, so to speak. He was not afraid to ask questions and thus get his instructions straight before undertaking the work in hand In fact, I might say that he owes every thing to the fact that he was always accurate in all hedid. You may think that I am preaching a sort of sermon, but if young men entering business positions, whether high or low, would take for their motto the two words, “ Be accurate,” and live up to it, there would be no fear of the ultimate outcome oi their un dertakings,” A TW ICE TOLD TALE.

Sunday was another very inclem ent-day here. Accordingtotheold saying: there will be another one in this month. There was a Roman Catholic bur ial service at Faith last week. To those of the protestant faith it was very strange, and much of it un called for. The Juniors of Faith raised a flag at Rowan Academy last Saturday. They made a present of the flag and a Bible to the school, and had some of the school children to draw the flag to its place on a pole. The services were very interesting, and strictly religious. There were some excellent addresses made by Revs. J. M. L. Lyerly, J. B. Davis and Prof. George. The school, in con cert, spoke out aud said, “Thank you.” In the closing part, they formed a large circle around the flag and sang “Sweet Home.” We feel sure the most critical could not find any grounds of objection to any part of the exercises. This lodge now numbers IOO and is still growing. We understand that a plan has been “completed” at New Orleans to hold 2,000,000 bales of cottou for 10c; this alone will bring last year’s ■crop down to about 11,000,000 bales. A little backing to this from the farmers elsewhere will compel the mills to shut down or give, 10c. We hope the farmers will all put their shoulders tb the wheel now in motion and hold their mighty grip. O bserver.

It has recently been discovered that the germs that produce LEalMiav breed and multiply in the intestines and from there spread throughout the system by meaos of theblood. This fact explains why Ualaria is hard to cure by the Otd method of treatment. Quinine, Iron, etc., stimulate the nerves and IraUd up the blood, but do not destroy the germs that cause tbedisease. Bydate’s Tonic iiasa specific effect upon the_intestines mid bowels, freeing them from all disease breeding microbes. It also kills the germs that infest the veins and arteries. It drives from the blood all poisonous matter and makes it rich and healthy... BYDALEB TONIC is-a blood buQder. a nerrerestorer, and a Malaria destroyer. Tiy * sou. New Furniture .Store.

Mr DalzellI presided. M essrs. Adams, Sib ley, K ling, Brow n and Bates, of Penn sylvania; Grosvenor, of Ohio, and Goul- den of New York, eulogized Mr. Quay’s life and character.

The H ouse took up the bill m aking it a m isdem eanor to sell or give away Iiquor w ithin five m iles Of a Voting place on election day. With an am end m ent incorporated by th e com m ittee providing th a t a m an could give aw ay a drink, provided th a t he did no t do so w ith intent to influence th e election, following the election law of T he Code. M essrs. M cNinch and A lexander, of M ecklenburg; Davis, and M urphy, of Buncom be, spoke against th e am end m ent, saying it would be well enough to suspend th e dispensing of liquid bos pitalities even in private houses one day in tw o years, and claim ed it would be far better to do this than by adopt ing th e am endm ent to practically li cense th e giving aw ay of liquor on elec tion day. It wouid be im possible to con vict anybody under th e language of the am endm ent. Mr. W inborne said it was an outrage to brand every m an a crim inal who, in th e privacy of h is home, should extend a common courtesy to a friend, sim ply because it happened to be on election day. U nder th e proposed law a m an would be a crim inal who gave his wife or cook a sm all dram to ease th e toothache or such like afflic tion. Mr. M urphy, of Buncom be, again spoke, saying he had seen young m en who w ere tem perate dead drunk on free Republican election liquor in Buncombe county on election day. To require the State to prove the intent would be to nullify th e law. The county of B un combe,' regardless of politics, desired to break up this disgrace of using w hiskey to influence elections. Mr. Pow ers of fered an am endm ent striking out the words “w ith th e intent to influence the election.” This w as adopted by a large m ajority. Mr. W inborne offered an am endm ent m aking it a crim e to give aw ay cigars and tobacco on election day, but this w as defeated. Mr. M ur phy, of Buncombe, contended th a t w hiskey w ould take an elector’s think ing faculties aw ay, w hile tobacco would not. Mr. M cNinch nodded approval at this argum ent ,and asked Mr. W in- borne if he honestly desired th e am end m ent to pass.
