THE INITIATIVE AND REFER
ENDUM.

Direct Legislative i. q. The Initiative
and Referendum seems to be growing at
the North. 1t is not party question, all
three parties in Massachusetts, having
placed it in their platform and many
leading men 10 IN parties having declared
for it. In South Dakota, it has been
adapted as an amendment to the Consti-
tuition and is to be submitted to the voters
this fail. In New Jersey it came within
two votes of success and in Kansas it
passed the House but lacked three votes
Of the constitutional two-rhipls in the
Senate. In Nebraska it has been adopted
by the Senate. sonar
q Whether it IS II genuine reform which
shah sweep the Union as the Australian
ballot has done. or 4 Htopian scheme
unsuited to our ideas we can tell after it
has been tried elsewhere. IT has done well
in Switzerland but the cantons are small
er than our States by much. If it will work
half the wonders its Supporters claim for
it, it will win its way in spite of any OPP
position.
The referendum i, the right Of "a GER
tain number of voters to require any
given act of the legislature to. be submit
ted for ratification to the people at the
polls. We have something similar to
this III the custom of submitting a new
Constitution to the people, and also in
submitting legislative act authorizing
4 town or county to issue bonds to vote
of the people thereof The initiative re-
quires bill which the legislature fails
to pass to be submitted to Il popular vote
on petition of certain per cent. of the
voters
In d government whose cornerstone is
theoretically at least the will of the peo-
pie, there is fascination to many in the
idea Of making it more so in practice by
giving the people supervision over their
agents in the legislature. The objection
is, of course, the doubt as to it's practical
bility. When some other States have
adopted it and failed or succeeded we
will profit by their experience and adopt
it II satisfactory or reject it if it fails.

c.nNFYDENCD IN BANKS-wHAT
no IYREE DWuST1SfMN&N?

vha advertising. columns Of this paper
y.sfcr,,ay and to-day show the confidence
! the people OF this section nave in the
! Raleigh hanks. In period of great de-
pression. with banks failing in other
| nortiens of the country, the Raleigh
| banks have grown stronger III public con-
fdence and in assets. There are now
ON deposit nearly one and half million
dollars inathe five banks of the city-a
sum drawn from Raleigh and the sur
rounding country.
The following table of deposits subject
TO check and what is due to other banks
gives a total Of deposits that is perhaps
more than has been heretofore shown:
Citizens National ....... .So2S, 100. 81,
National Bank of Raleigh. 1853, 74S. 90
Commercial and Farmers -. 34S, 163. Oh
Raleigh Savings ......... l9o,41 .36
Dime Savings ........... 9,9OS.11
Total -. ........ 81 AGO, O5O. 90
The officers of the banks may well con-
graduate themselves upon this evidence
of the confidence of the people in their
integrity and in the safety of their in
situations. There are no banking insti-
buttons in the country managed more
honestly and capably, and while these
large deposits do not speak well for the
prosperity of the country, they
show that the people are resolved
to put their money where they
know it will be safely cared for ready
for them when the opportunities for in
vcstment are better than they have been
under the gold standard and high pro-
lection.
If the times were good, much of this
money now deposited in the banks, would
he in circulation building factories, de-
vcloping resources, and bringing return
to it's possessors. In this, Mckinley
era of prosperity" so great is the depres-
sion and the lack of confidence, that men
carry their money and put it i'm strong
banks without n cent of interest rather
than lend it out to neighbors, who want
to borrow, or put it in enterprises that
would give employment TO many.

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Effectual
 Cure for it.

Catarrh of the stomach has long been considered the next thing to incur able. The usual symptoms are full or bloating sensation after eating, accom- panied sometimes with sour or watery rsings a formation of gases, causing pressure on the heart and lungs, and difficult breathing; headaches, fickle appetite, nervousness and a general played out, languid feeling.
 There is often a foul taste in the mouth, coated tongue, and if the inte- rior of the stomach could be seen it would show a shiny, inflamed condition.
 The cure for this common and obsti- nate trouble is found in a treatment which causes food to be readily, thor oughly digested before it has time to ferment and irritate the delicate mu- couS surfaces of the stomach. To se- cure a prompt and healthy digestion is the one necessary thing to do and when normal digestion is secured the catar- rhal condition will have disappeared
 According to Dr. Harlandson the safest and best treatment is to use af-
 ter each meal a tablet composed of Diastase, Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux
 Golden Seaa and fruit acids. These tab- let's can now be found at all drug stores under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not being patent medi- cine can be used with perfect safety and assurance. that healthy appetite and thorough digestion will follow
 their regular use after meals.
 Mir N. J. Booher of 2710 Dearborn st ., Chicago, Ills, writes: "Catarrh is a Io- cal condition, resulting from a meg lected cold in the head, whereby the lining membrane of the nose becomes inf1amed and the poisonous discharge therefrom passing backward into the throat, reaches the stomach thus pro- ducing ca3tarrh of the stomach. Medi-
 cal authorities prescribed for me for three years for catarrh of stomach without cure; but to-day I am the hap
 piest of men after using only one box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I can | not find appropriate words to express
 my good feeling. I have found flesh, appetite and sound rest from their use. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the saf- est preparation as well as the simplest
 and most convenient remedy for any form of indigestion, catarrh of stom- | ach, biliousness, sour stomach, heart burn and bloating after meals.

THE CONNECTICUT BISHOPRIC.
New Charlottesville Rev. Dr. Greer
 MentiOned-A Warm Contest.

New Candidates-The Rev. Dr. Greer
 Mentioned--A Warm Contest
 New candidates are constantly being named for coadjutor bishop of the Pro- testant Episcopal church in this state. Fairfield county, it is stated, will have a candidate in the Rev. H. M. Sherman of St. PauPs church, East Bridgeport, and members of the convention from Litchtield county will probably present the Rev. StOrrs o. Seymour of Litch- field, formerly of Hartford A candi- date outside the state mentioned is the Rev. John S. Lindsay of St. Pauls church, Boston, formerly of Bridgeport It is said that the high-church clergy men in the state, who number perhaps fifteen or twenty, will have candidate of their own.
 It is conceded that the Rev. E. s. Lines of St. Paurs church, this city, and Professor Samuel Hart of Trinity college will be far ahead of any other single candidates in the initial voting, and it is thought that the clergymen of the pOpulOus regions of the state will divide about equally between them, the delegates from the country churches finally turning the scale unless a cler- gyman outside the state should be chO- sen. The contest is sure to be a warm one, and discussion of the candidates is already very active in Episcopal cir cles.
 A dispatch to New York yesterday says: Tt was announced here this af- ternoon on the highest authority that the Rev. Dr. David II. Greer of St. Bar tholomew's church. New York, will be named as a candidate for coadjutor bishop"
