not having left him. he was advised
to try Paine's Celery Compound. He
Vas soon back at his office in the de,
partment of public works, well man,
and forthwith wrote letter to the pro-
pretors of the remedy, in which he
says:
II had been told by friends of the
wonderful results obtained by them from
the use of Paine's Celery Compound.
After my severe attack of the grip | de
termined to try it. l have already
found that my friends reports were not
at all exaggerated, and l wish to join
most cheerfully with them IN recon-
mending the remedy to others
Hundreds of grateful letters have
been written to the proprietors of
Paine's Celery Compound since the APP
pearance of grip this year, telling of the
perfect recoveries it has effected. The
letters come from men and women of
many conditions. Few persons are so
poor they cannot afford to have this
great remedy constantly in the house,
and none are so prosperous that for
their healths sake they can afford to
be without it. When so many men and
women whose words carry the utmost
weight in the communities irl which
they live testify as they do to the great
benefit they have received from Paine's
Celery Compound, there can be no hes
itancy in trying it. A single trial is the
test which is confidently invited.

THE STATES BEST CITIZEN

That is what the Charlotte Observer
calls Col. julian S. Carr in the follow
ing handsome and well deserved editoria
paragraph:
Our Durham special yesterday told
of the retirement of Col. Julian ). Carr
from the Blackwell Durham Tobacco
Company. This is an event. The great
business ability of Col. Carr built up
one of the greatest interests in the Unit
ed States, and his quitting this business
is a subject of public interest. lie Is
now disassociated from the tobacco
business, with which he has been con-
nected ever since, a penniless youth, he
attached himself to it directly after the
war. 1t is a pleasure, though, to know
that he is well fixed, and in whatever
line of endeavor he may hereafter en-
gage, the Observer will wish him we'll.
He is the States best citizen. lie has
divided his wealth with its people. North
Carolina has never had so munificent q
citizen. or one who united with his mu-
nificence such modesty about it. All
honor to him.
The people of the whole State will say
''amen" to this tribute to a generous son
whose career has illustrated the lines

Now, what Is the grip!
Can it be avoided or prevented!
And can it be cured
Grip is characterized by a continnei
fever. by tendency to inflammation
of the membranes of the digestive and
often the respiratory tracts, by pam
in the muscles, and by debility.
The grip in individual cases Iarles from
slight indisposition to severe forms
with grave symptoms-these variations
depending wholly upon the health, age,
temperament or nervous condition OF
the person. Those predisposed 10 rnelI-
matism suffer great pain III the mus'.eS;
persons of nervous temperament be-
come low spirited, often have hysterla,
and. if not closely watched, have been
known to commit suicide. Several cases
of this sort have been reported this
month in the newspapers. Headache Is
constant symptom. The bowels are
generally constipated. Whatever form
The disease takes there is invariably eX-
IRENE prostration. The danger to per-
sons in previous healthful condition is
slight.
1t has been absolutely proven that
there is one certain preventive of serious
cases of grip; and that there is one
remedy for persons suffering with it, OF
beginning to be convalPscent from Its
attack.

This committee will do well to recon-

Concord Times.
We want to say to the legislators in
Raleigh that there is much dissatisfac-
ton ON the part of the white people at
the delay in passing separate car bill.
Several bills separating the races in
railroad cars have been introduced, and
committee was appointed to examine
all the bills and draft the best one pos
sible. This committee seems to have
some trouble in giving the people what
they want. If there is one thing for
which there is a universal demand it is
separate car law, and if there is any
monkey business about this matter the
people will be heard from. 1t now seems
probable that a law will be passed which
will not be worth anything, in that it
excerpts Pullman cars, vestibule and eX-
press trains, freight trains, and well
nigh all other trains Such Il law will
not be satisfactory to the Democratic
voters of the State, and the Legislature
will be false to the people if it passes it,

Economy is the watch-word. Every

Improvement and enlargement. This

Let us consider the facts with refer
ence to the Raleigh institutions. During
the past year the average attendance at
the white blind Institution has been 1T,
and 125 at the colored institution for the
deaf, dumb and blind, making an aver
age attendance of 800 at both institu
lions. For their support the appfopria
ton has been $4,000, an average OF
1888 1-3 per capita. The new bill ap
pronriates $4,000 annually for the sup
port of 200 pupils, and an additional per
capita of $500 for severy pupil over two
hundred, that is to say the approprla
ton for the next two years will be $50,
900 per wear for the same number
students that have been supported TO
the last year for $4,000. Where is the
economy in this? More than that: The
hin that passed the House made the az
propriation unlimited, giving an add
tional $500 per capita for every add
tional white and colored child admitted
whereas during the past year these chill
dren have been supported ON per
canita basis of 1888. But this is no

regular appropriation S16,500 is appro

SATURDAY, February II. 1899.
TIME TO CALL A HALT-MUS1
CUT APPROPRIATIONS.

This Legislature was elected upon
pledges of strict economy.
Up to yesterday those pledges were
kept, but the appropriation bills that
passed the House for the deaf, dumb
and blind were increased beyond the
necessities for the education of these
unfortunate youth--an increase all out
of proportion to the ability of the tax
payers to meet. If the pace set yester
day is kept up this Legislature will have
to increase the tax rate before adjourn
ment.
All the other institutions in the State
are applying for large increase in
their appropriations, and if their re-
quests are complied with as literally as
the requests made for the deaf, dumb
and the blind, the appropriations of this
Legislature will exceed those of any
and will exceed those of 1897 by quart
err of n million dollars.
There is no absolute necessity for
increasing the appropriation for the
white blind, and negro deaf, dumb and
blind institutions at Raleigh, or the dqAf
and dumb school at Morganton, Df
course every additional dollar will &be
honestly expended and if the Treasury
Of the State were full. the apprSpria-
tons might be made, but with the con-
ditions as they exists we do not hesitate
to say that the House erred in giving
the increase TO both these institutions
that it voted Thursday and yesterday.
We do not believe the House fully under
stood that it was giving $4,000 or more
additional to the Raleigh institutions, and
$1,000 additional to the Morganton in
stitution. for che next two years. We
cannot believe that the careful consic-
GRAFTON was given to these items that
ought to be given before final action is
taken.

In this connection we are pleased
publish elsewhere an interview with
Mr.. John b. Holman, chairman of tn
Finance Committee, stating that he vii
move reconsideration of both appro
priations so that they and all other ap
preparations for public institutions cal
be considered together. That is the only
real way that can be devised to conside
the needs of all the State institution
intelligently, and we are glad that Mr.
Holman will pursue that course. 1t vii
be an innovation that will bring goot
results. Mr.. Holman's big heart lead
him to favor liberal appropriations t
the unfortunates, and his motion will b
made in the hope that all necessar
appropriations can be granted to thos
institutions without increasing the tax
rate.
