A Tribute.

Twas one Of Gods saddcst dispense
tons when He removed from among
our midst the beloved form of Miss
Addlc Bowen, who, by her sweet and
cheerful disposition, had won many
fiicnds. Now as we, the members of
her Sunday School class, take our pla-
ccs, there is one vacant seat, and
lis SO hard to realize the sad fact that
we shall never again behold eramong
the number, for she was ever in her
plac" at both Church and Sunday
School and was loved by all of her as
sociatcs. But, alas, she is gone and is
now singing that sweet and cvcrlas ting
song around the Fathers throne in
Heaven, awaiting the coming of her
loved one. We deeply sylnpathizc with
the lonely sister who is now left to
mourn he loss of her who was ever her
companion. He cheerful face and dispo-
Ssltlon, we know. are sadly missed III the
home circle by the loved ones, but ii hey
can only look MP thro' their binding
tears and say, THY will pc done and
that they shall one day be reunited
around the thronc-onc happy family:
Not now. but in the coming Years,
1t may be in the better land;
Wen read the meaning Of our tears,
And there, some time, we'll under
stand
God knows the way; He holds the
key;
He guides us with uncrring hand;
Some time with fearless ewes we'll see:
Yes, there, mp there, we'll under
stand.

1t should be Il mattcrof shame to the
American people that the highest law
making body has the distinction of be-
ing the softcst dupc to gold brick
schemes and confidence altlicr OF any
green horn i'll the country. There are
the pension steals, the appropriation
steals, the army contract steals. and
the hecongrcssional salary steals. Ofthi,,
latter class least is known by the ln-
educated populacc. The rule of the
House OF Representatives allowing to
each contestant for seat in Congress
the sum OF S2,OO0 as expenses is wholly
unjustitiable by any reasonable hypo-
thesis. 1t encourages wildcat con-
tests at the expense. nr the govern
mcnt, contests that would no, other
wise be undertaken for the reason that
the beneficiary, the contestant, should
be compelled to foot the bills incident
to the contest from hisprivatc account.
We recall siii iilsinncc Oi this kind in
which the contest was not decided I'M
til near the end of the Congress in
favor Of the contestant i,o drew his
salary for the entire time, while the
c0ntestcc had already drawn his salary,
thus costing the country the full sal
aries OF two Representatives and the
contest expenses Of each. There may
be some little justification in appro-
prIating IL sum to cover the costs of
contests upon the part of the contes-
tee, but it is absolutely stupid to so:cn-
courage and foster hasclcss contests by
dcfraying the costs incurred by con-
tcktants. Certainly if the game is
worth the candle, the contestant should
furnish the tallow.

Progressive Farmer.

A reader objects to our statement
made last week that under the new
election law registrars with their ex-
traordinary power are not even sworn
to do their duty. He states that Sec
too 9 Of the law refutes our statement.
Referring to section Q we nnd IL gives
county election boards power to re-
move any registrar or judge of cleo
ton appointed by them, for incompe-
tency, failure TO qualify within the
time prescr bed by law, failure to dis
charge the duties of office after quail
flying, or for any other satisfactory
cause" And this is the only reference
to the registrars qualifying that we
nnd in the new law. We do cot think
that this section makes it compulsory
except when so desired by county
boards. On the other hand, IL our
friend will read the proceedings Of the
State Senate, March 2, 1899, he will
read Of a matter which was thus re-
ported by Col. Odds in the Charlotte
Observer;
"rhe election law came up as a spe-
cial order. Fourteen separate amend
ments were offered by Senator Franks.
These provided for q full representa-
ti0n Of the Republicans and PopuIists
on the election board and that the reg
istrars should make oath before JUS
tices Of the peace tie faithfully perform
their duties according to law. The
amendments were Oted down."
