FULL OF HOLES.

Evidently, Russell adheres to the
motto, "While in Rome do as the
Romans do" He confesses that he
thought he ought not to accept rail-
road passes, but he concluded he
would accept them because other
officials were accepting them, and
that he will continue to take them as
long as they are offered, notwith-
standing his purpose to exert his
power towards putti' g an end to the
pass business. A queer position it is
that the Governor maintains and
one that would not hold water in the
moral world. He says it's against
the lew for the railroads to issue the
passes, but not against the law for
officials to accept passes. In other
words, it's all right for a fellow to be
a party to crime SO long as the law
does not make him particeps crimi
mis-, but only holds the principal re
sponsible. Then, wouldn't it be
right and honest for one to receive
stolen goods, knowing them to have
been stolen, provided the law didn't
reach the receiver? Don't you SET
the direction in which your logic
tends, Governor? Your excuse walks
on crutches and your reasoning il
full of holes.

WAIT NO LONGER.

They say the County authorities
are still waiting for the contractors
to replace the broken walks on the
Courthouse square. They have
waited too long already. Steps
should have been taken before this
to compel the contractors to COM
plete the job. 1t seems that the
authorities did not withhold a suffic
lent sum to pay for replacing the
walks, in their settlement with the
builders OF the Courthouse, and
hence the builders are in no hurry
about the matter and, probably,
would prefer to let it stand just as it
is, so far as they are concerned. But
it makes considerable difference with
the County, for il the present con-
tractors fail to build the walks the
County will have to pay the differ
ence between $500 and the cost OF
the construction, and besides the
County and the town have to suffer
the slip shod impression made by the
present condition of things. To say
the least, the waiting policy has run
to seed and it is high time that
action was taken to force the con-
tractors to live up to their contract.

KEEP THEM AWAY.

Keep gambling concerns and fake
shows away from Winston during
the Tobacco Fair. The temptation
to secure little revenue should not
be strong enough to induce the city
authorities to- turn swindlers loose
upon the community. To do SO
would be to strike the future of our
Fair a serious blow and would place
stigma III our city.
Doubtless such concerns will apply
for license to do business here during
the Fair, for they hover about such
occasions as buzzards assemble
around a dead mule and for the same
purpose-to feed upon something at
as little cost as possible.
The authorities need to have their
wits about them. These fellows are
sharp and understand their business
and know much about lodging law.
Moreover, many of them have
smooth, oily tongues, and are capa-
BILE of deceiving the officers as to the
nature of their schemes. Upon the
suggestion OF O suspicion that there

LESSONS OF VALUE.

The successful progress that has
been made in the preparations for
our big Tobacco Fair, now SO close
at hand, illustrates some very i'm
portant facts incident to the pros
perity of community.
One of these is, as we have pre-
viously noted, the value of co opera
ton. This feature has been conspic-
uous and without it the prospects of
success would not now be 80 bright.
Another feature we would empha-
size is the Importance of leadership
in matter of public interest, for the
lack of which many conceived ideas
that would have wrought great
benefit have failed to materialize.
In reference to the Fair idea, it was
considered the thing to do by nearly
everybody and yet without leader
ship the idea would not have passed
from the passive to the active state,
and we would not now be looking
eagerly towards the big occasion
that will occur in our midst next
week. Fortunately, however, a
leader was found in the person OF
Col. A. B. Gorrell, whose services
were duly recognized later by making
him President of the Tobacco Fair
Association. Col. Gorrell saw in
embryo the advantages to the COM
munity in the successful incubation
J of the Fair idea and he went to work
to get it out and ever since has ap
piled bis energy and business tact to
| the task in hand and next week will
see it's successful elimination.
Here again We might refer to the
value OF co-operation-the fact that
leadership is valueless of practical
results without faithful assistance
Col. Gorrell soon found wide-awake
and public-spirited citizens VINO saw
the matter as he did and who very
promptly and earnestly pledged their
aid to the undertaking and have
faithfully kept the pledge and will
share the honors of the successful
occasion of next week, although just
how much of hard work and applica
ton has been involved in the plan
ming and executing will never be
fully known.
The extent and the lesson of coop
Grafton does not stop here. The
Fair idea and the plans of the officials
were heartily endorsed and seconded
by the community at large, recalling
the stick-together practice of former
days, and when this spirit was recog
nized all doubt of the success OF the
Fair was swept away.
Let us diligently apply these les
SONS to all future community inter
ests and we will find the car o
progress moving forward witt

Mustn't Kill the neighbours Chicken

Mustn't Kill the Neighbours Chickens.
Chatham Record.
Quite a peculiar and amusing case
is published in the last volume of the
North Carolina Supreme Court Re
ports. 1t is an Indictment against a
man for cruelty to animals"-for
killing his neighbors chickens which
were in his garden scratching up his
peas. The defendant was CONVICTED
before justice Of the peace, and on
appeal to the Superior Court was
convicted there, and on appeal to the
Supreme Court his conviction was
affirmed.
1t seems foolish for man to incur
SO much cost in fighting 80 frivolous
case, but we suppose his "blood
was up and that he was fighting
mad. The opinion of the Supreme
Court, delivered by Judge Clark, is
qlite a long and able one, as well
as humorous The court declares
that a man has no more right to kill
his neighbours chickens, which are
scratching up his garden, than he
has to kill his cattle that might be
trespassing in his field. His only
remedy is "to impound" them till
damage is paid. That is, catch them
without hurting them) and keep
them until the owner pays for what
ever damage they may have done.

Miss Lucy 81. Hitchcock, lecturer,
department of physical culture.
Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, Vermont, wrote on May 16,
last:
''It affords me pleasure to add my
testimony with others regarding the
healing effects of Paine's celery com
pound upon an exhausted nervous
sy STEM"
August II, 1897, she wrote: GAS a
rule I do not endorse medicines, but
l believe Paine's celery compound tc
be of a different order from the ordi
nary medicines. Facts cannot be dis
puted. l have derived so much ben
eft from the compound that l am
glad to heartily recon mend it, hop
ing others similarly afflicted may be
relieved. Any medicine that will re
lieve suffering humanity is a bless,
ing to the world"
A blessing to the world
Paine's celery compound has been
proven to be the one great remedy
that makes people well. This estim,
able woman, whose Christian work
is earnestly directed toward the bet,
terment of others, and whose emin,
ence in the W. G. T U. makes he1
advice of great value, plainly en-
dorses Paine's celery compound
The amount of poor health on
every hand is something shocking
to everyone who stops to think. Hun
dreds of men and women in every
neighborhood are today carrying
about with them needless load OF
ailments that a thorough refreshing
of their nerves, a purifying of their
blood, more sleep and more regular
ity in the bodily functions would com
pletely do away with. Paine's cell
cry compound will do all this for
sick and ailing men and women.

AS TEXT BOOKS.

The subject of introducing news
papers into schools as text books is
being discussed. In Kansas City, we
observe, newspapers have been so in
PRODUCED, and in some other places
teachers pursue the practice of drill
ing pupils in current events as gath
cred from the newspapers. With
proper precaution in excluding such
papers as pander solely to the de-
based and sensational side of human
ity, this idea is most excellent and
cannot be equalled as a means for
keeping pupils in touch with the
history OF the day, of what is trans
piring both at home and abroad,
and thus making them more largely
a part of the present and better
equipping them for taking their
places in the busy ranks of life after
the school days are over.
Sometimes we find a person of
whom it is said he is possessed of
great book learning, but he is lack
ing in common sense. This condi-
ton, we think, is largely due to the
fact that the greater part of the life
of that person has been spent in
hard study of fanciful theories and OF
events that transpired in the long
ago and of people who figured amid
environments far different from those
which now exist, and when such d
person applies his ideas, thus formed,
to the affairs of today, people say he
is not practical and he hasn't com
mon sense, and they say about
right.
Referring to this subject, the Wash.
ington Post says:
"Nor will this introduction OF news
papers into the schools be without
it's good influence upon the press
The knowledge that his work is to be
accepted as a great factor in the
education of the young will inspire
the editor togreater carefulness both
in the character of the printed news
and the expression of editorial
opinion.
1t will not be long before the news
paper in the schools will be univer-
sal fact. The study of history as it
is being made will be an attractive
feature of the students daily life. 1t
is very largely the case now in Wash
ington, where the practice, as we
have already intimated. is most sue
cessful, and will spread everywhere
with the same satisfactory results"
