GEN. cox TO FARMERS.

From address at Tarboro.
Few, very few farmers ever become
rich from their farms.
A farmer who raises only cotton never
proves a success.
The kind of cotton suitable for the lati-
tude is always a prime factor for con-
sideration.
Raising poultry for market is profitable
and should not be beneath the atten-
tion of any farmer.
England and Russia are making siren
uous efforts to free themselves from be-
ing dependent upon America for cotton,
America, by manufacturing all her pro-
ducts, would be nearly independent of
them.
Farmers should build factories. The
cotton and cotton seed of the county were
worth a million dollars. All this could be
kept at home to improve the farms and
build up the county if used here in fac
tories. Not. dollar should be allowed 10
leave the county in the shape of the raw
material.
The farmer who diyersifies is the sue
cessful agriculturalist.
The assemblages of farmers to discuss
matters appertaining to their calling is
always beneficial and imparts much
knowledge.

ENGLAND's ARMY AND NAVY.

1t was recently stated that England
would be unable to cope with a swift en-
envy, and that both the army and navy is
inadequate to meet sudden invasion.
England is, in this instance, like the indi-
vidual who allows disease to slowly creep
into his system through a stomach too
weak to properly digest the food taken
into it. To strengthen the stomach, there
is nothing better than Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters. 1t cures dyspepsia. constipa-
ton, indigestion, liver and kidney
troubles, and as tonic, it is incompara-
bic. The Bitters strengthens the nerves
produces refreshing sleep and gives re-
newed strength and vigor to the system
1t is undoubtedly the best medicine in the
world for debilitated systems. Try it.

SENSIBLE ADVICE.

We published yesterday with pleasure
extracts from the Emancipation address
by Rev. Fl. B. Delaney, the speaker of
the occasion. 1t deserves more than a
passing note of commentator. He coun-
selled the negroes to economic a little
on the August meeting and the excursion
craze" citing an instance in which South
Carolina farmers petitioned the railroads
not to run any more excursions until the
cotton was picked. This recalls the state
ment of Parson Leak, who said on the
first of January, 1899. During the past
year the white people of North Carolina
have invested 100000 in cotton factories
and the negroes 81, 200 in excursions
The address of Rev. Delaney was excel
lent and if his wise counsel is taken, there
is brighter day for the negro in North
Carolina.

IMMORAL PLAYS SCORED,

The preachers often denounce the thea
atre, and sometimes their denunciations
are regarded as too severe and based
upon lack of actual knowledge. There are
plays and plays-and it is unfortunate
that there are so many that fall below
what ought to appear on the stage as to
seem to excuse if not justify wholesale
denunciation of a diversion that properly
employed is most helpful and elevating,
as we'll as pleasure giving. But it re-
mains for William Winter, in the New
York Tribune, to burst forth into per-
feet fury of rage at those immoral plays,
actresses who play in them. and the vi
cious public that derives entertainment
from their work. He tells us that some
plays in which some actresses appear are
terrible, and after excoriating plays and
players, he says satirically
The true purpose and mission of the
modern theatre is to place within the
public reach the precious privilege of OBJ
serving the Establishments and the tribu-
lations of courtesans and hussies the riff
raft of female vanity, folly, and lust; of
studying the means employed by those
beatifie persons to fascinate fools and to
obtain music-hall engagements; and, in
cidentally, of inspecting the brothel side
of metropolitan life, of learning how
homes are disrupted, characters are de-
graded, careers are ruined, and hearts
are broken, and of imbbing, at last, a
settled disgust fer human nature, such
as is we'll calculated to turn the kindest
soul to bitter cynicism, to shatter the
foundations of all religious faith, and to
cover everything in the world with a pail
Of safety and despair

NUGGETS OF TRUTH
Abram S. Hewitt.

ADTdm >. hewitt.
The rich are blind. There is not one
among them who is giving what he would
give if his conscience were properly
aroused They do not seem to realize
that this is Government by the ma
jority. Ours is the only country in which
there is universal suffrage. To be ex-
ercised rightfully and righteously that
suffrage must needs be educated. The
rich in contributing to it's education are
but building for their own protection.
If they neglect so to build, barbarism,
anarchy and plumber will be the newt
able result.
A school is better than a Jail: a col
lege is better than State prison. Every
dollar spent in education is dollar saw
ed When it is not spent in education it
has to be doled out for police eXpendi-
ture.
The man who makes but 800 and gives
one tenth of that for the help of his fell
lows is doing well. The man who gives
one tenth of $1,000 is not SO generous.
But what about the man who has $1,000,
600? When he gives 100000 we are all
grateful, but he has 100000 left.

made to feed them from the same dish
and out of the same spoon with other
people, and they back their cry by sum-
moning to their aid strong array OF
lobbyists and legal councillors, and fair
ness" goes down in defeat under the ar
gumentative cannonading of paid lieu
tenants. 1t is high time that legislators
give more consideration to the fact. when
it is so. that those who appear before
them to defeat measures in the interest
of the great body of the people are paid
to make just such arguments and stand
ready to make equally as strong argu-
ments on the opposite side, if they should
be employed to do so.
We take it that the acquaintance of the
Legislators with the needs of their con-
stituents and the State at large and the
application of sound judgment to these
needs form safer guide to action than
the pleadings of those who shape their
arguments from a personal standpoint
Much consideration is due to the views
of those who favor or oppose a measure
from patriotic motives, but we are per-
suaded that there is too much professional
lobbying in both Legislative and Con-
gressional halls. and the sooner it is
curbed the better for the masses.

EXTENSION OF A GOOD THEORY.

The hog and hominy theory should be
practiced as to mules AS we'll as in meat

are annually paid out for mules which
are brought here from other States and
sold. There is no good reason why it
will not profit the farmer to raise the

Congressman N. w. Howard. of Fort
Payne, Ala, had the Grip and made a
prompt and permanent recovery by the
use of Peruna. He recommends it.
strongly as a Grip cure.
Congressman George H White, of Tar
boro, N. c., found Feruna an excellent
remedy for the Grip. He has made a
public statement that both he and his
family recommend Peruna to others as
a reliable Grip cure.
Mrs. c. D. Powell, President of the
Epworth League, at Chehalis, Wash,
finds by personal experience that there
is no remedy equal to Peruna for the
Grip.
Miss M. A. Jouris, President of the
Golden Rod Sewing Circle, of Chicago,
H., suffered severely from the Grip and
the after effects. The case seemed to
puzzle the doctors and Peruna was re,
sorted to. A permanent. cure promptly
followed.
Miss Alice DRESSER, 1913 North Bryant

from the Grip and was partially cured,
but the bad after-effects remained and
she did not set strong. Peruna restored
her to perfect health ana happ ness. She
