CURRENT COMMENT.

The Charlotte o. c. Observer, which
IS ore of the fairest and most amlable
newspapers in the South. has permitted
somebody 10 slip into its editorial columns
an editorial article that Is spiteful IN tone
and erroneous as 10 its statement. We
know that our contemporary viii cheer
fully ten its readers that the Richmond
Council has never thought OF rejecting
the proposition OF the Chesapeake and
Ohio and Richmond. Petersburg and
Carolina Railroad Companies Co carry Oh
extensive Improvements here. There was
some temporary misunderstanding be
tween q subcommittee OF The Council
and the railroad men, but their differ
ences have all been adjusted and the
work win go right on. involving an cX-
penditure Of between g. e0 00H and 5000
O00. Out Of abundant caution the Council
has gone slowly but the railroad people
will get practically everything that they
have asked for.
Frank X Jones. who was assistant post
master general under President Clevc-
land. says our consular service is filed
with men Of no experience. many Of whom
are even without the qualifications for
dealing with business men.
This IS an exaggeration. as evidenced
by the excellent consular reports which
the government is continually receiving
and publishing. But the consular service
IS not what ii should be and never will
be first-class until appointments are made

This spring farmers are taking
an unusual interest in clean seed
grain and very properly SO for
experience has demonstrated that
weeds readily pollute the ground
and are hard to get rid of. They
also impoverish the soil, lessen the
yield per acre and also lower the
grade. The annual lssses from
weeds alone in many instances
marks the line between success and
failure between profit and loss.
Wild oats, cookie, mustard and
French weed have taken q strong
focthold, not always, but often
on account of carelessness. It is
not too late to remedy the evil, at
all events to check it, and the I'M
usual interest manifested by
farmers in this respect is good
indication. Careful farming pays.

The "nigger' in the canal legis-

The ''nigger" in the canal legis-
lation of congress is becoming
visible to the naked eye. The
work done by the Panama Canal
company's lobbyists in killing
legislation for the construction of
the Nicaragua Canal and getting a
commission to examine an l report
upon both the Nicaragua and
Panama routes is now being sup
plemented by other shrewd work
towards roping this country in as
a partner in the Panama Canal.
As another move in that direction
about sixty senators and represen-
tatives have accepted invitations
for months junket upon an ele-
CANT steamship, as guests of tho
Panama Canal Co., the junket to
include a visit to Cuban ports of
interest. The Panama Canal has
already been the cause of q great
scandal in France, brought about
by this way of spending money to
influence Legislation.

Early Next Spring.

j. B. Boyd Will Put in Cheese Factory Here
Early Next Spring.
On Saturday afternoon an enthusiastic
meeting was held at the city hall to dis
cuss the question of establishing cheese
factory here. The meeting was called to
order by j. B. Boyd, the promoter of the
enterprise, who explained to a represent
alive audience of farmers and business
men the benefit that would accrue to the
city and adjoining country by starting Of
such an industry. Mr.. Boyd stated that
he was willing to assume the responsible
ity personally if on investigation it was
found that the farmers within radius
of eight or ten miles of town would be
able to supply the factory regularly
with the milk of at least 200 COWS. This
problem Is being investigated at present
and milk routes established in all pos
sible directions leading to Lanedon.
The details as to the location and actual
capacity of the factory are points that
have yet to be arranged, but that Lang.
don Is to have cheese factory and
that our enterprising townsman, ]. B.
Boyd, is the promoter are two facts
of which our citizena can well
feel proud of. Farmers for their own
good should give the project their hearty
support as it is rapidly beco ming more
evident that the sooner all turn their
attention to stock raising and diversified
farming SO much nearer will be the day
when the time of hardships and priva
tions will become thing of the past in
our farm homes.

ALL of the laws passed by the
Legislative assembly have been ap-
proved and about 100 new laws or
amendments of old ones have been
added to the statute books of the
state. While of no vast import
ance, the majority OF the measures
passed amend the present laws in
such way that county officials
and residents of the state in gener-
al will be interested in their pro-
visions. The salary amendments,
changing the methods of fixing
salaries of many county officers,
and the basis upon which the
salaries are fixed in many q cases,
will be of interest. The general
tendency has been to increase

WITH the ending Of our war
with Spain followed a series of
historical events which tell the
story from the time of firing the
last gun at Porto Rico to the sign
ing of the agreement of peace by
the Queen of Spain last Friday,
Briefly given it is as follows: Pro-
tocol was signed Aug. IL, 1898.
Draft of peace treaty was signed
at Paris Dec. 10, 1898. Peace
treaty was ratified by the United
States senate Feb. 6, 1899, by a
vote Of 81 to 81. President No
Kinley attached his signature to
the treaty on Feb. 10, 1899. The
queen regent of Spain signed the
agreement March IL, 1899. Final
exchange of ratification must be
made by June 10, 1889.

The population Of the United
States in 1880 at the time the first
national count was made, was, in
round figures, 3,930,000. Accord
ing to the statistical abstract, which
has just been issued by the govern
ment, the population in 1898 was
74,3S9,000. It will be 77,500,000
by the time that Mr.. Merriam's
assistants finish their work in
1900. When Franklin, about a
century and a quarter ago, told
England that the population of the
thirteen colonies was doubling
every twenty-five years, and would
continue for many year to grow
at that rate, the world was startled
and incredulous. The old phllo-
sopher, however, was not astray
in his calculations. America for
many decades doubled in popula-
ton at the rate he predicted. It
now doubles every thirty years,
for the population of 1870 was,
roughly sstated, 3C,560,000, while
that of 1900 will be about twice
this figure.
