The Citizen has been criticised i'll GER

of the Southern Railway is keeping the
people away from -Asheville. Here is Il
sample of some of the letters received
on the other side. 1t comes from Il mer-

1t appears, then, that men who wish
to come to Asheville and go into bust
ness here are scared away by the eXtor-
tomato rates of the Southern Railway.
Perhaps the Southern is putting the
screws to the people of Western North
Carolina so rs to get money to build new
lines into Savannah and other places
that already have ample railroad faclli-
ties. We would suggest to the Southern
chat it publish i'm its paper, the Southern
Field, its tariff rates to Western North

DRUG FIENDS.

Some time ago DIR. Crothers, of Hart
ford. Conn, created something of a rip
pie i'm the medical world by declaring
that 6 per cent of practicing physicians
are addicted to the use of morphine and
that the tendency to prescribe it for vari-
Gus purposes is on the increase. DIR,
Crothers said:
"A physician addicted to the drug is
usually prone to prescribe morphine for
the relief of pain in a patient. Knowln1
the effect OF morphine ON himself, he Is
apt to advise it for those who call on
him professionally, and thus leads to
starting and fllrthering the habit among
the laity. Perhaps many morphine fiends
have been helped to their ruin by ply
scian'S advice.
Investigations made in various places
have tended to confirm the assertion Of
DIR. Crothers that the morphine haf6it is
growing.
Morphine, however. is by no means
the only drug that has cts slaves. The
activity of the scientist has been reward
ed i'm recent years by the discovery OF
dozens of compounds that alleviate pain
or produce some specific effect upon the
system which becomes habit to the vie
tim before he is aware. All these pre-
parations. i'm the slang of the user, are
simply dope and the users are mach
more numerous than anybody save the
pharmacist is aware. Among the prepar-
atoms that are everyday making new
slaves are not only those class
ed as opiates, laudanum, chloral
opium, morphine, paregoric, but also
phenacetine, anti-kamnia, anti-pyrlne
sulfonal trioEal, bromo-seltzer and CO
caine, the last being far and away worse
than morphine. Even coca-cola is said
by druggists to have its ''fiends.'
Those who dope" are not confined to
any class or age. They are of all ages
over 10 or II years and of all grades
of society, and as any druggist can tell
you are yearly growing more numerous.
Any preparation that is either hypnot-

REPORTS from all over the State show
that Christmas this year was marked by
more drunkenness, rowdyism, crime and
Offences against public deccncy than has
been the case for years past That such
was the case in Raleigh is a matter Of
common talk among citizens here and.
painful as il may be to admit 1t, can
hardly be denied. The police court re-
not walk the streets on Christmas day
without having it thrust upon his notice
in dozens of cases that were not of Il
sort to get into the police court,
The reports in the press from other
towns of the State show that much the
same condition obtained elsewhere.
Thus the Charlotte Observer says:
1T is the universal comment that there
was never witnessed an Charlotte such
debauchery as characterized Christmas
day, and it was a special grief to OH
serve that this extended so far into the
ranks OF the young boys of the conf

than half way through their teens, eX-
Inhibited themselves openly in vario1s
stages of intoxication, and for this
cause, if no other, Christmas day, 1889,

The Newborn Journal says chat nine
teen cases of drunk and disorderly were
UP before the mayor and three policemen
we're suspended and fined for drunken
ness.
The Wilmington Star says there We're
sixteen cases before the Mayor there, two
of them for attempted homicide.
Greensboro reports two homicides be-
sides the cases of disorder
Without going into further details the
instances cited show that North Caro-
lima had a Christmas that was far from
creditable. Thestow mentioned above
are as orderly as any in the State, popl-
lation considered. Raleigh, for example,
has gone for more than week at n
time without single case in the police
court during the fall just past.
Why then this unpleasant showing at
Christmas? 1t can not be accounted for
by simply saying, sit was Christmas,
for it is Christmas every year; but not

Was it because money is somewhat more

vIelLAacIA STILL UNHEARD FROM
Her Agents, However, Say She Has
Been Seen BY Passing Steamers.

NEW YORK, Aug. II. 1Sss.-The Ward
line steamer Vigilancia, which sailed
from her last Wednesday for Mexican
Ports by way of Havana, where she was
due on Sunday has not arrived yet Grave
fears for her safety were entertained
owing to the West India hurricane which
she must have encountered, till yester-
day when it was reported at the office
OF the line that she had been sen pass
ing Point Jupitr on the Floria coast at
one O'Clock yesterday morning. The
Mexico which sailed from here on Satur-
day arrived a Havana at five o'clock this
morning, which would indicate that the
steamer sighted off Jupiter was her and
not the VigiIancia. The vigilsncia carried
fifty passengers and full cargo of gem
eral merchandise but no bullion.

for the Compania Transatlantica received
a despatch today saying the Manuel L.

Thursday for Havanaw ith twenty-five
passengers an da full cargo and had gone

o'clock this morning all well and without
damage.
Mr.. Barrett, the manager Of the Ward
line said that he had received a des-
patch from Havana saying that the
steamer Mexico reported she passed the
vigilancia on Monday night.
He said the dispatch gave no particu-
lars. 1t is therefore question where the
Vigilancia was passed, the condition she
was in, and the state of the weather.
