Manufacturers Association.

Accepting Presidency of the Tobacco
Manufacturers Association.
In response 10 the notification of
his election as president of the South
ern Tobacco Manufacturers Associa-
ton, organized in Danville on the
18th instant, Col. Julian S. Carr writes
the following letter of acceptance to
Mr.. G.. P. Talbot, secretary and
treasurer of the Association:
My DEAR SIR:-I acknowledge
with pleasure the receipt of your es-
teemed favor of the 18th instant, and l
assure you that my election as presi-
dent o. the Southern Tobacco Manufac-
turers' Association was quite unex-
pected, and compliment which 1
greatly appreciate. Were l to consult
my own wishes, however, l would have
to decline the position, because my
time is already so fully occupied that /
scarcely see how shall be able to give
this matter the proper attention; still
L always strive to measure up to the
expectations of my friends, and if the
Southern tobacco manufacturers voted
me the proper person to head their Or
ganlzation, ! am their servant to COM
mand
Now that we have put our hands to
the plow we must never turn back. We
must never know such word as fail. In
several ways, it appears to me, coop
GRAFTON could be made beneficial to the
the Southern manufacturers, and I am
willing at least, to try the experiment
in good faith. Very truly yours,
j. s. CARR.

The Forum tor February,

The Forum for February will contain o
noteworthy discussion Of the Venezuelan
controversy by three distinguished VII
tiers:
l. "The Presidents Monroe Doctriae,' -
by Prof. Theodore S. Woolsey, professor
of International Law at Yale University
who contends that the Monroe Doctrine.
is not Il law, that it binds us to- no
action, but that it was a policy devised
to meet Il particular case, and therefore
wholly inapplicable to the Veseznean
difficulty
=. Lord Salisbury and the Monroe
DOcrine,' by Hon. Oscar s. Stratus, eX-
United States Minister to Turkey Mr.
StRaus bames Lord Salisbury for refus--
ing to submit the disputed territory to-
arbitration, contends that tae Monroe
Doctrine Is as important aD instrument
IN the history OF our country as are the
Declaration of Independence and Wash
ingtOn's Farewell Address. He declares
that two principles have always gov
erned the relations OF the United States
with the governments Of the world-the.
neutrality principle laid down by Wash
ingtOn and the Monroe Doctrine, and
that the Monroe Doctrine applies almost
emphatically to the Venezuelan contro-
yersy.
3. "The Duty of Congress, by Mr.
Isaac l.. Rice. a well known lawyer Of
New York, who has made n lifelong study
OF constitutional and International law,
and who contends that the Monroe Doc,
trlne is absolutely inapplicabe to the,
Venezuelan dispute. severely censures the
President for what he considers the un--
necessarily belicoSe tone OF his message
and points out what he believes to be-
the plain duty Of Congress in the matter .

"PREJUDICE. NOT REASON"

The article printed on the first page,
under the above heading, should have
been credited to the Southport Zeaaey.
We endorse what our contemporary
says about the lack of sense and reason
in publishing such distorted and often
sive articles as the one in question, and
this paper does not do it, We recog
nize the fact that Marion Butler is a
duly elected Senator from North Car
DINA, and whether he is there by our
consent and help or not to belittle him
is not only to belit,le his position but
to bring ridicuIe upon the State as we'll
And we have too much State pride for
thar.
1t is right and proper to cr,cise his
public acts, but the position he occu-
pies negatives the charge that he is a
fool-as devoid of sense as the Conn.,
mertiakAbbeal writer attempts to
picture him. These kind of articles do
more harm than good. Many man
has been elevated 10 positions of
trust and honor through rldiCule and
apparent persecution rather than any
force or merit of his own; and we be
lleve Marion Butler owes mush 81 his
prominence before the country to the
Democratic press of North Carolina.
And We are quite sure that the opposi-
lion press had much to do with max
ing S. Ohio Wilson Railroad Com
missioner.
There is neither sense nor aryn-
ment in the words .Maryann" and
"Chief Gideon" bu, such pet appella-
tlons constitute the principal stock in
trade of some papers when speaking of
these two worthless
No mans loyalty to Batter was ever
lessened by his being called Maryann.
No mans support of Wilson was ever
weakened by his being styled Chef
Gideon. On the other hand the car
rying of this SOFT of political warfare
to the extent it has been smacked OF
the spirit of persecution in the minds
of their friends and others and has
served only to enrage and embohen
them and make their support of these
men all the more steadfast and deter
mined.
We are no apologist of either of
these gentlemen, yet at the same time
we have no patience with the methods
employed by large portion of the
Democratic press in their treatment Of
them. They hurt no IN but them
selves and the party they profess to
represent. Sensible people walt facts,
convincing argument, and will not
accept in their stead mere rot and rub
bish, ridiculous nonsense as meaning
less as it is absurd. To think that
they will is to assume the people are
fools. And to do this is where you
make a mistake.

BOTH LOST.
A Childish wager with . Sentimental
Ending.


a ChiidIsh wager with Sentimental
Ending.
This story wns told to some report
ers at the city hall by Detective Nc
Kenna, says the Philadelphia Call.
About ten years ago a boy and a
girl were talking to each other about
love and marriage. and each was en-
phatic in the assertion that the other
would marry first. So they decided to
make wager. OF which the terms were
that the one who should first wed
should celebrate the event by parading
the streets clad In the garments they
then wore. This appeared very satis-
factory to both. rs each was positive
the other would be the one to pay the
penalty. This wager. OF course. was
kept profound secret outside the cir
Gle Of some intimate friends. Last
Monday the pedestrians on Chestnut
street were greatly surprised and
amazed to behold tall man clad in
very comical costume. He wore pair
Of very tight trousers. which did not
reach his knee. and q pair Of black
stockings which were equally wanting
In length to cover his lower legs. His
Jacket was so small that It was BURST
ing all over with the strain Of its con-
tents. and over all was round school,
boys cap. perched on the back Of his
head. To add to the mystery Of tho
situation the curiously groomed man
was followed by a very pretty young
woman. who was similarly garbed in
clothing that must have belonged to
some child Of long ago. Not much
could be seen, however. Of her cos.
tune. as she wore long wrap. The
reader will readily guess the explana.
ton OF the strange exhibition.
