sentiment.

When "Red" Stuarts examination
was being held last week he picked VI
pencil and commenced scribbling, al
one time, and this is one of the senti
ments found on scrap of paper in his
very good hand writing:
"Who is a mans best friend?"
Answer one-"The first one to come
in when all the rest OF the world has
gone out"
Answer two-"The one who, like ivy,
clings the closer the more the ruin"
That fellows heart isn't so bad, and
we have said that much to him.

THE RAILROADS AND IMMIGRATION.

While here in North Carolina the rail-
roads are lending every aid to secure
desirable immigration, and the Seaboard
Airline is putting forth vigorous and
well directed efforts in that direction,
there is a counter movement in the
Northwest. The Detroit Journal says
that the Passenger Association of Mich
igan has taken action against giving re-
duced rates to home-seekers' excursions,
and the Journal adds that this action
was taken on the ground that such ex-
cursions encourage emigration to the dis
advantage Of the State.
The Washington Post, accounting for
this remarkable order, says:
Emigration from the middle West
to the South has attained such pro-

portions that it is viewed by the
press and many of the people of the
former section with a degree of dis.
favor that is akin to alarm. The
State of Michigan is one of the cont
monwealths that are seriously affect
ed by this movement"
There is no doubt that there are op-
portunities here in the South that people
of the middle West would better their
condition by embracing, and it is evil
dent that some Of them are coming when
the railroads seek to check the tide by
withdra wing reduced rates. The rail.
roads build up the West. They induced
immigrant ton. The South will have to
depend chiefly on them to turn the tide
in this direction. The efforts of the
Seaboard Airline railroad ought to stir
up other railroads to like endeavors.

WHY DID THE CAR FLOP?

Why does the Speaker, after solemnly
declaring that this session was called to
enact tariff law and nothing else, all of
4 sudden give out that he will shortly
appoint the committees? Let nobody be-
lieve that Jerry Simpsons nagging or the
force of public opinion, righteous as they
are have caused this change of front.
The Gar was not moved by Simpsons
sensible argument or the force Of popu-
lar demand. If these had weighed with
aim. the committees would have been ap-
pointed long ago.
We hazard no conjecture as to the par
ticular agency that has secured rever-
sal Il policy. 1t may be that some Of
the great syndicates that poured out
money to elect Mckinley have an axe to
grind and cannot wait. 1t is more than
probable that the railroad trust wants
some legislation to let them get around
the Supreme court decision, or Coils
p. Huntington and his associates want
Congress to give them the Pacific rail-
road.
1t is a job for the campaign boodlers
whatever it is, and its particular form
will appear later.

A TIMELY CARTOON.

A few days ago the New York Journal
published a cartoon drawn by Mr.. Nor
man E. Jennett, who will be pleasantly
remembered by the readers of the News
and Observer as the cartoonist who
added much to the interest Of the paper
during the last campaign and during
the Legislature. Mr.. Jennett has talent
and ambition and will make his way in
New York.
We copy in to-day's paper cartoon,
by the courtesy of the Southern Tobac-
co Journal, drawn by Mr.. Jennett for
that paper. 1t shows that, while he has
improved in New York, he has not been
contaminated In view of the trial of the
American Tobacco Company in New
York for conspiracy, the cartoon of Mr..
Jennett is very timely. There are two
other cartoons he must make to fully
show the methods of this illegal Trust
one to show the enforced poverty Of the
tobacco farmer, caused by a withdrawal
of competition in the purchase Of his leaf,
and the other the coercion Of retail deal
ers who want to sell cigarettes not
made by the Trust.
The success of the cigarette trust has
been won by the impoverishmentso f the
farmer, the coercion of dealers, and the
evasion and violation of plain laws.

If there be here and there some i'm
proyement in net income it has BEEN
gained through reduced expenses
rather than increased gross income.
The stock market boom is consequent
ly based OH prophecy and not upon
facts. 1t is discounting possible i'm
provement rather than making up the
defects of assured transportation
from general trade revival. Wall
Street, then, has rarely seen a more
reckless speculation than is now on
the boards. 1t is a bold, dashing,
professional discount of possibilities
not alone in the way of business re-
vival, but of bringing into the market
the waiting capital of Europe and the
domestic public" The event in
general trade and industry may JUS
tify all this, but there is as yet not
the first bit of certainty that it will.
Meantime foreign capital may he
caught and brought into the game,
and it may not be. But of the do
nestle public there can be no doubt.
1t is not now in the market and will
not be for months. Wall Street may
boom on possibilities, but the mer-
chant or manufacturer or small in
weston must realize actualities in
business and profits before he buys
stocks, and he is not thus en-
gagged.
at is question much considered
whether the business reviewer
should bluntly deal in the truth, or
with soft words feed the hopes OF
trades. There is something to be
said on both sides, but at times it is
equivalent to asking whether it is
