In tile year 1868, Mr.. R. Watkins first began
the manufacture of Dr.. Wards Linimcnt. For
years he struggled along with limited means,
striving with all his powers and at times despair
ing of success, but at last established living,
paying business, and made the name tsDr Ward,s'
household word in thousands of homes. Dur
ing all these long years Of toiling and waiting,
Mr.. Watkins little thought that men could be
justice as to undertake to dcspoilhim of his bus
mess, and themselves to attempt to harvest the
fruits of his lifelong. labors. However, in TINS
matter, he learned that he was mistaken. In
various parts of the country, sprang up bogus
agents offering medicines said to be Dr.. Wards or
siust as good as DR.. Wards, FIRE quently leading
customers into thinking they had the genuine
article. Therefore, in order to protect his bust
ness and the public from Being imposed ! upon,
worldwide right to use his name as trade
mark for full line of medicines, and caused the
same to be registered in the U. S. Patent Office
No. 1885.

AN IMPORTANT MATTER.

Mr.. Edison, the famous electrician,
has had submitted to him the plan
for utilizing the power of the Yadkin
river for manufacturing purposes in
Salem and he declares that
the idea is entirely feasible and prac-
ticable. This is high authority and
warrants a thorough investigation
of the matter.
II the plan can be successfully
carried out it would mean a great
deal for Winston-Salem in affording
valuable facilities as a manufactur-
ing centre, and hence would prove an
attraction for the establishing of
diversified Industries.
We regard this matter as one of
very great Importance and we are
sorry to note an apparent lack of
interest in it. 1t would not cost very
much to determine the question of
practicability and certainly this
much should be done at once.
Here is an opportunity for effort
towards advancing the material
interests of the community. Will
our people take advantage of it?
There is much truth in the old
adage: "What is everybody's bust
ness is nobody's business" Leader
ship is essential in every important
movement and the matter under
consideration will not prove an ex-
ception to this welI-established prin-
ciple.
We would suggest that the Cham
Der of Commerce take hold of the
subject, instigate investigation and
zealously pursue it until definite in
formation is obtained as to whether
or not the plan suggested is thor
oughly practicable.

A COMMENT.

The Charlotte Observer of Tues
day has, editorially, the following
timely comment upon the recent
trouble in our city: at is clear that
in the trouble at Winston the colored
people we're wholly at fault. This
paper says this as a friend Of the
race, and with regret. 1t is a fact to
be deplored that in the case of
difficulty between a member of their
own race and a white man they SO
generally side, without regard to the
merits of the controversy, with the
negro, and are SO prone to get up
needless excitement about the negro,
if he be the survivor of a fatal ARRAY,
being 'lynched, and utilize these
reports, of their own fabrication, as
an excuse to organize mobs and
disturb the peace. The more en-
lightened of the race should educate
their fellows against this tendency.
1t is to be hoped that the trouble at
Winston is over, and if so it is more
than usually fortunate that it has
ended without loss of life when the
opportunities for bloodshed we're SO
prOpitious."
The western sentinel. [volume] (Winston-Salem, N.C.) 1887-1926, 1895-08-22
A WARNING.

Several persons charged with
gambling plead guilty in the Superb
or Court last week and submitted.
The most of them were fined fifteen
dollars and costs and q few were
discharged upon payment of costs.
One of the attorneys remarked
that he thought the limit was ten
dollars and the Judge replied that he
would raise the limit. Treating the
matter seriously, he said he made
the fine small because it was the first
offense, but he wanted it understood
if there were any more cases against
these persons at the next term he
would make the punishment i'm
prisonment. He said that gamb-
ling was an indictable offence and
that the law ought to be enforced.
The statement was made for two
of the indicted persons that they
played for cigars, when the Judge
said they must understand that it is
just as much violation of law to
gamble for cigars as for money.
We hope that the action already
taken and the warning embodied
therein will have the effect of putting
a stop to the demoralizing practice
of gambling in our midst and that
Judge Brown will not be placed
under the painful necessity of infiict-
ing heavier punishment for the
violation of the law against gamb-
ling upon his next official visit to
Winston.
To be sent to Jail for the violation
of law would be a very humiliating
thing to those who submitted their
cases last week and we trust they
will not render themselves liable to
this punishment by repeating the
offence TO which they plead guilty.

Fruit and Vegetable Canning.

Wilmington Messenger.
The canning industry is q big
thing Why North Carolina has not
gone into it more extensively is an
unexplained mystery, unless it be a
want of enterprise. We have stood
in a grocery store in this city and
seen the canned vegetables on the
shelves from Maine. A gentleman
standing by us, said: 81 have been
where those vegetables are made,
and L assure you they are grown in
soil that had to be imported SO
rocky and barren was the land .
Think of that. Going to the frozen
regions for vegetables with such q
soil, climate and advantages as
North Carolina has. Marvellous !
Let North Carolina do better. Let
the people grow more fruits and
more vegetables and can them. 1t
pays elsewhere, why not in our own
State? North Carolina can work
nearly the year round, while Maine
has q short summer and a much
more barren soil. All over the
middle and eastern sections there
ought to be canning establishments
Wilmington should be putting VI
tor market, oysters and vegetables
to supply remote markets. Other
| sections can do a safe, remunerativt
business in fruit growing and fruit
canning. Why not? Let laziness
and thriftlessness answer. The ad
vantage in canning is that the origi
| nal outlay to begin is small. Men o
small capital can embark in it. Blu
the thing to do is to learn how to dc
it. Get the right instruction ant
then go ahead.

THE RELEASE.

We confess to surprise that the
Directors of the North Carolina
Railroad have released the road at
this time and to still greater sur
prise that the new contract covers SO
long a period as ninety-nine years.
A few days ago we remarked that
il such action should be taken it
would exemplify the old adage:
''Sin in haste, repent at leisure"
We are still of this opinion. The
ninety-nine-year period will give an
abundance of time for repentance,
but however sincere~the repentance
there may be no opportunity in
all this time to make reparation
to the people for the effects of this
sin, if it may be SO called.
We do not know what arguments
were advanced to SO speedily con-
summate a deal that received in adj
vance the condemnation of the press,
almost unanimously, and of SO
large number of citizens. We do
not know upon what grounds the
Governor and the Directors will at.
tempt to justify their action, save
the general proposition that they
deemed this course to be the best.
The question arises: Was this
matter handled as if it had been
private business? If not, it was not
properly handled. Would private
business man lease property that is
constantly increasing in value and
in earning capacity. for period OF
ninety nine years, at a price slightly
in advance of what the same proper
ty was leased for twenty-six years
ago, and without considering propo-
sitions from other parties who were
anxious to make offers? 1t appears
to us to have been q very unbuslness-
like transaction and one that will
bring serious loss to the State.
1t was a deal in which the railroad
people secured a very great bargain
aud the Southern doubtless feels
uuder manv and lasting obligations
to its able Vice-President, Col. A. b.
Andrews, through whose Influence,
we understand, the Directors were
persuaded to view the matter from a
standpoint which resulted i'll the ex-
tension of the lease.
We nouice thata question has been
raised as to the authority OF the
Directors to grant the lease and it is
not unlikely that the Supreme Court
will be called upon to pass on the
validity OF the lew contract. Ii
they had the authority, the latitude
| given them is greater than should bs
lodged in any set OF Directors having
| charge of matters OF such great in
terest to the people.
Viewing the matter from a loca
standpoint, we incline to the opinion
that the new lease will abolish al
probability that the through line o
! the road will ever run by way o
| Winston.

A SERIOUS EVIL.

It is undoubtedly true that this
country is suffering from the effects
of ill-advised and unwelcome immi-
grafton which has been permitted to
come to the United States. Such
aliens are very undesirable, and it
seems to US extraordinary that this
country should have for SO long q

Great is North Carolina.

MOrSanton Herald
A trip across North Carolina from
the mountains to the seashore, such
as the editors of the State have just
taken, will teach wonderful lesson
OF material progress. The country
between Charlotte and Durham
seems to be the centre of develop
ment in the manufacturing line
There is scarcely town or village
or a way station in that distance of
more than hundred and fifty miles
where some new factory is not being
erected or some old factory doubled
in size and capacity. Then comes
the great cotton belt, and a notice.
able fact is that the finest and the
largest corn fields in the State are
now to be found right alongside of
the cotton fields, showing that the
one crop idea has played out and
that the cotton farmers are raising
their own supplies at home. Further
East comes the great trucking region
where millions are made every year
on berries and early vegetables.
Then comes the sounds, the greatest
fish and oyster grounds on earth
Truly, no one can travel all the way
across North Carolina without being
impressed with the fact that it is
the best State in the Union.

income equal to that of the Univer-
sity of Virginia, he would have
thousand students"
And yet, in the face of this earnest
desire of our poor boys to secure an
education to better fit them for the
battle of life. there are those who
would cripple the present limited
capacity of the University to extend
assistance, by Withdrawing State
aid to that institution. We are
told, too, that the agitation Of this
opposition, begun year or two ago,
has been revived aid will be carried
into the next campaign. We regret
20 hear this. 1t is not at all credita-
BILE to the leaders of this movement.
If their ideas should prevail discredit
would be brought upon the State.
We need enlarged facilities for the
education of our boys and girls
rather than that those we have
should in any way be abridged. The
educated man has always had an
advantage over the uneducated man,
and always will have, and it is now,
perhaps, more essential than ever in
the history of the world that the
young man entering upon the active
duties of life should be equipped with
an education. We believe that the
great body of the people have a
lie arer conception than ever of the
Importance of this matter and,
despite the efforts of the agitators
of a policy of retrogression, We do
not believe the people of North Caro-
lima will suffer backward step to be
taken in the matter of educational
| facilities for their children.
Many poor boys and girls have as
| brig hit minds as those blessed with a
liberal portion of this worlds goods
and it is right that the State should
aid them in their honorable ambition
| to cultivate their minds and thus to
fit themselves for careers OF success
and usefulness and good citizenship.
| We believe the State will render this
aid in larger measure in the future
than it has done in the past

N. G. FARMERS ALLIANCE.
Proceedings of the ANIMAL Session
Held at Cary,

The North Carolina State Farmers
Alliance ninth annual session ended
late Wednesday night at Cary.
Arrangements were perfected to
establish a shoe factory there. Reso
lutions were adopted at midnight
condemning the plan of renewing the
lease of the North Carolina Railroad
to the Southern Railway. An
amendment to the Constitution,
allowing Alliances to be formed in
cities and towns of over 5000 popu-
lation, was defeated. Cyrus Thomp-
son, the new president, is for the free
and unlimited coinage of silver,
without waiting for international
agreement. He does not believe
either Democrats or Republicans can
be trusted to restore silver to it's
former position He thinks the
movement to found a new silver
party will fail like all other move
ments of the kind. He says the
Alliance is in politics neither more
nor less than it has been since the
first organization of the party. Its
object is the education of its members
in the science of economic govern
ment, and of course government is
politics; that is the only way it is in
politics.
