THE PUBLIC KICKING.
The Freight Rates Reduced ut Some
Towns and Not at Others

Hickory, \. G., Jan. 20.-(Special)-
Again the voice Of an unreasonable pub
lie is upHfted in complaint against the
Southern Railway. \ suspicion has
gone about that this cooperation does not
exist for the sole purpose Of distributing
aims to the poor. At any rate
something is the matter. Another order
has been misconstrued and the shippers
of peas are ION their ear" in consequences
Some time ago the rate ON peas to New
Orleans from points in Western North
Carolina was reduced from 40 to 80
cents. This rate was given to some towns
on the Southern and not to others The
rate from Hickory was 80 cents, from
Newton and Conally's Springs. 40 cents
This condition Of affairs raised a vigor-
Gus and enthusiastic kick. At hast an
order was issued by the Southern, giving
a rate Of 33 cents to New Orleans from
all points between Salisbury and Balti-
more. But the construction placed upon
this order rendered it almost nugatoTy
SO far as concerns towns that had not
before enjoyed the lower rate; for from
theS all shipments were made at the
old figure, except when made in carload
10 cents per 100 pounds, unless where
carloads are sent. In the mean time
the harvest is passing away, and the
Slippers weep when they think Of this
iniquitous aud oppressive discrimination.
They seem to think that they really have
some reason for complaint. Somebody
is at fault, so they aver. If the rail
road is responsible, the sufferers would
respectfully present the Southern as
suitable candidate for the attention of the
Railroad Commission. If the order has
been misunderstood they entreat the
railroad authorities to furnish their
agents with the order, and to make known
the Interpretation thereof-let the decree
be clothed in language as ineligible as
that which the Company uses when they
signify to one of their employees that
his services are no longer required.
Then the sound of mourning shall be
stopped and pea-vines shall flourish upon
every hillside.

This afternoon at the home of the bride
in this town. Mr.. Jesse r. Moye and
Miss Novella Higgs were married by
Rev. n. M. Watson, pastor of the Meth
odist church. The ceremony was to have
taken place in the church at an early
hour in the morning, and the couple de-
to the sickness of the groom for the past
week the change was made to a quiet
home wedding. Mr.. Moye is a very popu-
lar young man and a member of the firm

eral merchants here He is a brother of
Mr.. "A. W. Moye, OF Cary. The bride is
a very charming young lady and exceed
ingly popular in social circles She is a

Greenville came near having another
serious fire tonight. Flames were dis
covered in the office of Smith and Hook
er's livery sta bles and were just reaching
the fodder loft, when the firemen arrived
and extinguished them. Five minutes
later the fire would have been beyond
control. The stables are located in
row OF frame buildings in the heart Of the
town where there is plenty of food for
a big fire II it could once get under full
Roadway.
Solicitor Bernard, of this district, is
sick and Mr.. II. w. Whedbee is looking
after the criminal docket for him at

BEAMING WITH SMILES

Are the countenances of people who
have found speedy and thorough relief
from malarial, kidney, bilious, dyspeptic
or nervous troubles through the aid of
Hostetter's stomach Bitters. Such coun-
tenances are very numerous. So are let
tiers from their owners attesting the eff
cacy of the great family medicine
Among the signals of distress thrown out
by the stomach, bowels, and liver, in
state of disorder, are sick headache,
heartburn, nausea, loss Of appetite, sal
lowness of the skin and eyeballs, and an
uncertain state of the bowels. They
should be needed at once. If the Bitters
are resorted to the woe-begone look
which accompanies sickness will give
way to cheerful locks produced by re-
newal of health. If you are drifting on
the coast of disease, throw an anchor to
windward by summoning the Bitters to
your aid. 1t will keep you in safety.

XATith better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts--pleasant efforts
rightly directed There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due tc any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated cOndI-.
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
" removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of famil $, and is
everywhere esteemed so hig' by all
who value good health. Its yvneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when You pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of d laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highestand is most largely
Gsed and gives most general satisfaction.

Milk and Germs.

DR.. Z. A. De Schweinitz, in his
lecture on "The War With the Mic
robes," says:
"When milk and cream are first
collected, they are almost tree from
germs, but exposed to the air they
soon become filled with those forms
of life, which are perfectly harmless.
If placed under suitable conditions
with regard to temperature, they will
multiply very readily and the milk
becomes sour, due to the formation
Of Tactic acid produced from the sugar
In the milk by one or more OF these
germs. If the germs present happen
to be those giving an ether and ester
which have pleasant flavor and
aroma, good butter results. But if
they give rise to the formation of dis
agreeable tho ethers and esters or
some amines the butter is poor and
bad.
"Now, by isolating different germs
found in the milk, and cultivating
them separately so as to discover their
own peculiar product, it is possible to
always make butter of the same sort
and flavor by first destroying the other
germs present by pasteurization and
then inoculating the cream with the
particular germ desired. A number of
germs have been isolated from milk
which will produce good butter, and
any one of them is perhaps as good
as the other, the ethereal product
being slightly different and more pala-
table to different individuals. OF
course great many germs have been
found which produce disagreeable
compounds, and it is not possible to
tell from their appearance simply
which is desirable plant. But it is
easy to cultivare them in milk and
note the results and select the desira-
BILE plant cell."-Mew York Herald.
