that an action to recover back $1,000
wrongfully collected, though paid un-
der protest could not be maintained
because both the defendants were
State agents and the action was in
effect against the State. The remedy
was by application to the Legislature.
If the law so clearly stated and so
uniformly repeated be not the law,
where shall we look for it and where
shall we find stability in the decisions
of the courts?
The repeal of an appropriation has
always been sufficient to shut the
doors of the Treasury against any
claimant. but there have been occaS-

the present instance, expressly direct

GRAY medal presented by Mr.. X. t
GRAY as q memorial in honor of his gal
liant brother, who gave his life wearing
the gray in his early young manhood
His life is a stimulus to courage and
in Mr.. Bushels felicitous remarks the
thought Of the youths were fixed upon
his glorious death
The announcement made at the close
of the exercises Wednesday afternoon by
President Kilgo that Mr.. J. B. Duke, of
New York, had signified his intention of
giving the college library building was
received With much applause and gratifi-
cation. 1t is his first gift to Trinity. His
father, Mr.. Washington Duke, has given
something like quarter of million
dollars, and his brother Mr.. B. n Duke,
more than 500, 000 Nobody was author
lied to state the cost OF the new build
ing which Mr.. Duke will donate. He
will doubtless erect building of mag
nificent proportions that will be not only
an honor to Trinity College but to the
State. 1t is a good sign TO see that North
Carolina young men who win money or
reputation in other States retain their
interest in the old home and give of
their abundance to afford better opportu-
mites to the youth Of their native State.
The weeks treat of learning closed
with brilliant reception in the Washing
ton Duke building last night From
nine o'clock to midnight it was thronged
with the youth, beauty and culture of
this great city, fart famed for its schools,
library, hospital college, musical con-
servatory and its love of letters and for
it's business enterprise and successes. 1t
was an occasion in which young and old
participated, and was a truly enjoyable
and elegant affair. | will leave the So
ciety editor in the Sunday News and
Observer to particularze, making only
one observation: that, after attending
this reception, no one could say that
dancing is needed to lend joy, pleasure
and eclat to a social commencement Oc-
caSion.
The only drawback to the fullest enjoy
ment of the week was the absence of
Mr.. James II. Southgate. president of the
board of trustees, who is confined to his
bed. He is generally the life of a Trim
ity commencement His absence was no
ticed an regretted. He will be out again
soon, and will "call the figgers," so TO
speak at the next Trinity reception.

The Prohibitionists who are
advocating prohibition as a re-
lieious principle must surely be
wondering wherein will they get
prohibition if Col. J. A. Hoyt is
elected. The sincere Prohibi-
tionists believe it is wrong for
the State to sell liquor, and they
want to see the State get out OF
the business and, they have good
and substantial reasoning in the
position they take. But the kind
of prohibition as represented in
the platform adopted by the con-
ference which nominated can
didate for Governor. does not
meet the requirements of the
true Prohibitionists. The true
Prohibitionist does not want the
State to continue to sell liquor,
whereas the present Prohibition
platform demands that the State
shall go right on, and sell the
stuff, only con6ning its sales to
medicinal, mechanical and sacra-
mental purposes. In other words,
to change the dispensaries from
place where liquor can be
bought in a manly way, to a de-
pot of hypocrisy. Why don't
the Prohibitionists have the
moral courage to make the issue
Liquor or No Liquor? If they
did, insincerity would not be
charged.

The Columbia State is work

The Columbia State is work
inc hard to defeat Governor Nc
Sweeney, but we hope the peo-
pie throughout the State will
understand that the Estate" isn't
supporting prohibition, for the
love it has for that principle, but
because it hates the dispensary.
The ''State"is is confessedly oppos
ed to prohibition, and regards it a
species Of fanaticism: yet, in
this campaign, it is endeavoring
to pose as the leader for the Pro
hibitionists. n. G. Gonzales the
editor of the State, is nothing if
not extreme; his bitter hatred
for Ben Tillman, and everything
the friends of Tillman did, is re-
sarded by him as good things to
destroy. Gonzales hatred was
first displayed when his influence
was used to destroy the Demo
cratic party in 1890, by forcing
the Haskell movement on the
people, and thereby making a
breach which has taken years Of
hard work to close up. This
same editor has ever since, been
a source of worry to those who
opposed Tillman and the reform

Why is it that the politicians
who are after the Governors OF
fee now. do not find in the pres
ent Governors administration
something like rebates, bond
dealing and other scandals: The
little petty complaints which
they are making now, will cause
the people to wonder why they
did not mention these little
things befere they became can
didates. Lawyers, in t h e r
speeches, can manufacture all
kinos OF bug-a-boos to scare peo-
pie off from voting against the
man seeking a full term, but the
people will not permit their votes
to be governed by oily-tongued
politicians who in their speeches
can almost make black appear
white. Sensible people, when
they go to vote for Governor
will ask themselves the question.
Has the present Governor mer-
tied a full term: Has his admin
istration been a success: Has
he given the people an admins
tration free from scandal? # he
has, he deserves their endorse
ment, regardless of the political
clap-trap of politicians who want
the Office.
