ABOUT DRUNKENNESS AGAIN.,

Recently THE COMMONWEALTH said
that drunkenness and general intem-
perance is on the increase in the State.
We only gave expression to our conyic-
tions from our own observations, but
we we're satisfied that we were correct
In our opinion.
This week a number OF persons have
spoken to us and agreed in the state
ment that intemperance is ON the in
crease in perhaps every part of the
State. And men who have heretofore
appeared somewhat unconcerned about
the matter now seem alarmed at the
treatening evil to the country, which
comes from the almost unbrldled sway
of king alcohol.
For several years we have seen the
black cloud of evil that threatens to
pour down a deluge OF ruin upon the
people, and we have spoken against it,
and written against it, and worked
against it In whatever way We could,
regardless of the fact that it is consid-
cred by many rather impolitlc for the
secular press to say anything against
mems habits of intemperance or the
States mode of dealing with the evil.
We trust we are patriotic enough to
forget personal interest. (even if by the
longest stretch of imagination there
could be any personal interest to us in
keeping sllent) when the welfare of
more than million and a half persons
in North Carolina is concerned in the
fearful sweep of ruin that the liquor
traffic is visiting upon our people. And
we do rejoice In the fact that the good
people of the State are becoming arous-
ed to the importance of checking the
eyil in come way.
It is a shame upon so-called Christ
ian civilization that human life should
10 often be sacrificed as result of this
growing evil and that the soil of this,
the greatest and grandest country un-
der heaven, purchased by the life-blood
of our fathers, should 90 often be STAIN
ed with the blood of the victim of this
great evil of intemperance.
How a man with one spark of hui
manity iu his soul can be willing to be
a party to the evil in any way we can
not understand and how the people
who suffer from the effects of the eyil
can lepger be silent we cannot see.
We heard conservative men say this
week that in some parts Of Halifax
county they regard 1t unsafe to travel
after dark, because of the recklessness
that grows out of drunkenness.
Then, is it not time for the matter to
b considered seriously? The law max
ers now in Raleigh were elected ON a
plea tor a suffering people. What heed
viii they give to this viper that il
sucking the very llfe-blood of the
land!

THE LEGISLATURE.


The General Assembly Of North Car
olina met In Raleigh at noon yesterday.
As is usually the case, the minds of the
people all over the State turn towards
Raleigh, and the oftcrepeated question,
"What will the Legislature do?" Is
heard on every hand.
From reading the papers and listen
ing to the conversation one hears on
railroad trains. in groups of gossipers
and almost constant inquiries about
the matter, it would seem that the CHIEF
work of the General Assembly at its
present session is the election OF Uni.
ted States Senator to succeed Senator
Pritchard. Weare impressed, however
with the fact that there are some other
things to which our law makers, since
they are in session, might we'll turn
their attention.
The COMMONWEALTH thinks Senator
Pritchard will succeed himself. Tht
election of the Speaker of the House
the Inauguration of Governor Russell
(Which promises to be tame), the elec
tlon of Senator all having been round
ed up, the people may look on to set
what else.
Whatever they do, the men who sl
for sixty days to legislate for the bes
interests of the people of the great State
OF North Carolina, ought to remember
that they bear a grave responsibility II
office, and the "So-help-me-G God" in tn.
oath ought to come from the heart and
impel them to the best service they Cal
render.

The sufferings of body and mind caused
