TALK OF IMPEACHMENT.

There is talk of impeaching two
judges of the Supreme Court. A COM
mittec OF the Legislature i. looking
into the matter. This committee is
composed of men in whom the people
may rely. They are not going to take
a bitter. partisan view OF the matter
and advise an impeachment because
n few hotheads demand it. Neither
will that committee shirk if they be-
lieve that the two justices deserve
and the best interest of the State de-
mands an impeachment. To impeach
men in high places is q very serious
thing, and we do not believe that the
present Legislature will take such
steps unless it is plainly duty.
Conservative North Carolina will not
submit to such gross injustice as
impeachment without high cause,
and we do not believe any one will be
impeached for partisan reasons. If a
justice of the Supreme Court deserves
impeachment, the sooner he gets it is
too long delay; but wise and con-
sentative men must lead, and not hot
headed partisans. We do not believe
there will be any impeachment, be-
cause we do not believe there is sutfi-
cient ground. and we have no fear of
the Legislature impeaching for any
but Just reaSOn.-Concord Tribune.

THE WHIPPING POST.

The Durham Recorder, one OF the
most conservative papers in the State.
is in line with the GOLD LEAF on the
whipping post question. 1t says with
much truth and forcefulness:
There are many reasons why the
whipping post. as means OF punish
ing criminals. especially the younger
criminals, should be restored to the
position it once occupied in North
Carolina.
Modern methods OF Furnishing
crimes are altogether too refined; they
are lacking in severity necessary to
have anv deterrent effect upon the
criminals whom tLey are intended to
reform.
Society needs to be protected from
theI,criminal, and the sending Of old
and young to penal institution
where they are further schooled in
crime, does not any longer have the
sanction Of the community. Whip
ping is form Of punishment that all
men shrink from. The stigma Of it
is fslt alike by hardened criminals
and the novice in crime. Moreover,
the pain is short and comparatively
of short duration. On the other hand,
it is admitted that to the criminal it
makes but little difference whether
he be sent to prison one year or two,
for many of them find better fare
there than elsewhere. To tho indus
trious and self-respecting citizen.
| imprisonment is a dreaded punish
ment, but not so to the old offender.
We believe that many young men
| and boys would reform their ways il,
on their first conviction in court, they
received an application Of the lash
instead of sentence to Jail or the
public roads. Wife-beating is crime
that the whipping post seems
eminently adapted to eradicate from
our courts.
The public would doubtless be
shocked by the erection of whip
ping post upon the court yard, but
any squeamishness on this score
would be balanced by the great bene
fit that would accrue to the commun
ity. II this sentiment were too strong
the stripes might be administered il
private.
The time has come to put an enc
to the attractiveness of modern ]ai
life, and to substitute something il
it's place that would really be dis
tasteful to those who fall under tn
jurisdiction of the courts. 1t is
silly prejudice that prevents tn
Redistribution of this good old law
and we hope the present Legislature
will give the matter their attention

EDITOR GOLD LEAF:-The members
of the present Legislature have the
deepest sympathy Of their constitu-
ents from all sections of the State in
wrestling with that most momentous
OF all questions. the Dog Tax. 1t is
useless to disguise from ourselves
that 1t requires more nerve than is
usually allotted to the modern states
man to tackle this great subject. be-
cause when they walk on the forbid
den ground they tread lightly. lest
they stumble and fall in the crater of
a smouldering volcano. The measure
is doubtless unpopular, and were it
put before the people it would be
voted down, and the advocates of the
measure would be relegated to private
life from the fact that the cur is
sacred in the eyes of its owner.
There is, however, a measure more
important and more far reaching in
bringing order out of chaos, regulat
ing society. producing healthy, eco
nomical condition Of affairs in every
community. refer to the whipping
post. By establishing this reform in
stltuiioh. the TAX payers or the State
would save thousands of dollars, petty
offenses would be rare, wood piles I'M
molested, and the old hen and chicks
could rest in safety. Under the pres
ent law the pen has no terror for
the petty thief; he breads not few
| months OF recreation in the county
Jail or on the roads and after he serves
his term he returns home and is re-
ceived as martyr. But let that
petty thief hug the grim. silent mon
ster, once terror to evil doors. he
will swear by heaven and earth and
by all that in them is, never again to
touch other peoples property, not
even a ''yaller" dog.
Gentlemen of the Legislature are
respectfully requested to consider this
question. c. M.

otherwise. The following extracts
are here reproduced for the benefit of
our Chamber Of Commerce and be-
cause what Mr.. Abbott says SO well
outlines what the GOLD LEAF con-
ceives to oe the duty not only of the
organization in question but OF each
individual as we'll. He says:
This then is the policy which |
would suggest TO the Chamber OF
Commerce:

our present industries and business
| enterprises.
~. To turn the search light of
public opinion upon public affairs.
TO endeavor by all Legitimate
means to attract to our city new in

velop our city into one OF the largest.

ECZEMA
ITOH IS TORTURE.

Eczema is caused by an acid humor in
the blood coming in contact with the
skin and producing great redness and in
aammation little pustular eruptions form
and discharge thin, sticky fluid, which
dries and scales off sometimes the skin is
hard, dry and assured. Eczema in any
form is tormenting, stubborn disease.
and the itching and burning at times are
almost unbearable; the acid burning
humor seems to ooze out and set the skin
on fire. Salves, washes nor other exter-
nal applications do any real good, for -
long as the poison remains in the blood
It will keep the skin irritated.

The benefit that would come to

the tax would help to educate some

That may be set down as a certainty.
