TESTS OF FITNESS.

The Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company,
which gives employment to man men,
has adopted a rule to investigate the
habits and character of all the men whom
it employs. Here are four questions.
which it pr%opounds:
do you use any kline of liquors as a
beverage?
Are there any unsatisfied judgments
against you?
Are you in the habit of engaging in
games Of chance or in specializing in any
way?
"Have you ever been arrested or &C
cused in a civil or criminal court Of any
infringement of the 1aw?"
Applicants are required to answer these
questions satisfactorily before they can
obtain positions with the company.
Nearly all large companies now make
tests of good habits and character DC
fore engaging men to work for them.
Some OF them will not employ a man if
he smokes cigarettes.
Young mon and boys will find that So
briefly. honesty and cleanness of life will
help them to obtain and claim the best
situations.

THE REUNION BEYOND.

The most wonderful meeting during
the Confederate Reunion at Greensboro
was held at West Market Methodist
church. DR.. l.. ". Crawford, Rev. A. D.
Belts, the veteran chaplain now seventy
years old, Hon. Cyrus B. Watson and
General julius S. Carr and others made
brief speeches. The Greensboro Record
saws:
1T seemed like an experience meeting
of old and there was scarcely a dry eye
when those hundreds of old soldiers stood
up and with firm voices sang, by the
grace of God I'll meet you, on Canaan's
happy shore
Services closed with a fervent prayer
by the venerable Rev. Paul J. Caraway,
who made a petition that all who wore
the gray-those who fell in battle, those
who nave since passed away, and those
who still survive-might attend the great
Reunion Beyond. where there shall be
no breaking of camps or separation Of
comrades. The veterans are growing
gray and soon few will be left to bless
their State. They feel the solemnity of
the service and the Importance Of being
Ready when the last shall
come to them.

THE MOTHER OF CRIME.

1.-The story is q sad lesson on the drink
habit is the comment of a newspaper
correspondent who tells how a CASTOR
county man killed his friend and then
killed himself.
The murder of Mr.. Stevers, the shoot
ing of Joe Mitchell, and the attempt on
the life of Conductor Clements, on the
Seaboard Air Line train near Henderson
last week, was due to whiskey. The re-
port is that "old man Cole was full OF
whiskey and the others had been drink
ing"
In his charge to the grand jury at
Robson court a few days ago, Judge
Allen said that in his experience on the
bench, he had observed that most of the
crime could be traced to whiskey drinking
and to drunkenness.
Drunkenness is the mother of most of
the crimes that engage the attention OF
our courts.

GREENSBORO'S GALL,

This paper has frequently given ex-
preston to it's admiration of Greensboro's
enterprise and public spirit, and up to
this time have been inclined to treat as a
joke hat it would move the capitol to
Greensboro. It seems, however, that the
agitation has already begun. and that
they are electioneering among the Con-
federate Veterans in camp there this
week. Read this from the Greensboro
Record of yesterday:
But they did not confine themselves
to this altogether. At one tent a dozen
or more men were sitting around in ami
mated conversation and the subject was
the removal of the State capital to
Greensboro, The reporter drew near and
listened and not a man in the crowd but
who wanted it sent to Greensboro "by
act of the next General Assembly,"
Say, Mr.. Record, can't you let Raleigh
keep the capitol five years longer-you
ought not to take it away without due
notice.

WOMEN AND SCHOOL HOUSES.

The Nashville Graphic of last week
printed in full the excellent address made
by Miss Viola Boddie, of that county,
who is a member of the faculty of the
State Normal and Industrial College, and
one Of the finest instructors in the State.
and related chiefly to the organized work
among women to improve the public
school houses. 1t will do good.
The very mul-sill of the educational
campaign must be better school houses.
The best teachers and brightest scholars
are at a disadvantage when the school
house is cold, dreary, cheerless. The
women alone can bring about the i'm
provement in the school houses which
requires good taste and dcft hands. The
New Bern Journal tells of the helpful
address by Miss Leah Jones in Craven.
Following a thoughtful paper by Mrs. E.
E. Mcfftt at the Wake Teachers Assem-
bly, a Public School House Improvement
Association was organized that will do

Gotten, of Pitt; Miss Emma Lewis speight
of Fdgecombe. This work-peculiarly
woman's work in the educational revival
ought to enlist the hearty cooperation
of the most progressive women in every
county and every school district in the
State. 1t will deepen interest on the part
OF men in public education. secure in

MADE OF THE RIGHT STUFF.

People often wonder why SO many Of
the sons of great men do not take their
fathers places. Simon Cameron answer
ed that pretty well when a friend said
that his son Don would never be as great
a man as his father. Old Simon's reply
was: Il had one advantage that Don did
not have"
What was that?" inquired the friend.
Poverty was the reply.
Young men who are raised in even com
parative luxury too often do not feel the
need of incentive to study and work that
are necessary for the highest success.
This line of reflection was suggested by
a closing paragraph of a letter in the
last issue of the Raleigh Christian Ad-
~vocate, written by Rev. NJ. T. Plyler from
Weaverville. We quote:
4 cannot better end these notes than
by calling attention to a young man from
a back county who left home with
twelve cents in his pocket, tramped across
the mountains forty miles and sought
out Prof. Robson to see what terms
he could make for going to school. He
wanted an education and was going to
have it. His pluck rebukes in thunder
tones many young men of our good old
State moving in the soft places with no
care for an educatiOn.'
That young man is made of the right
stuff and will be heard from.

A POSITION.

The Confederate Veterans in session at
union of Confederate Veterans yet held,
unanimously adopted this resolution:
RESOLVED, That we ondemn and de-
nounce the act Of Congress which re-
wards trcachery ard pcrfidy by giving
pensions to Confederate descrters for
fighting against their former flag and
comrades.'
This is the correct position. 1t will be
approved, not only by every brave Con-
federate soldier and his descendants, but
as we'll by brave Federal soldiers and
all others who have profound contempt
for deserters.
Mr.. Pritchard, Mr.. Moody and Mr..
Blackburn thought they had put a feather
in their cap when they secured the over
turning Of Hoke Smiths order denying
pensions to deserters. They will find,
instead, that the people Of North Caro-
lima will applaud the above resolution
adopted by the Confederate Veterans.
Nearly all the men who will get money
under this deserter's bill are Republic
cans already, and that's all the folks who
will approve the deserter pension bill.
The people Of North Carolina and of
the whole country will never endorse a
measure that puts a premium upon de-
~sertion. The example of Benedict Arnold
ought to have taught Pritchard. Moody
and Blackburn that those who desert
from the army to which they belong will
ever be held in contempt by brave men
and women.
The few paltry dollars that will 90
into circulation from this bill will not
do any good to the men who secured its
passage. 1t is founded upon a wrong
principle. The men who were its spon-
sors will in November wish they had
never advocated it.
The South Carolina candidates for the
Senate, as the campaign closes. are get
ting poetical. Mr.. Hemphill is RESPONSE
bic for these lines:
Lives of some men do remind US
We can live on western swine
And departing leave behind us
Debts unpaid a good long time"
This is good sense if not good poetry.
\ Maine summer resort, advertising in
the New York Journal, uses these words:
! \ flies, no mosquitoes, no negroes"
Suppose such an advertisement had APP
peared in a Southern paper, Bill Chand-
Ter would have been in eruption again
before night. ks4<

AN INDEPENDENT SYSTEM.

1.-The Seaboard Air Line system IS now
and intends to remain INDEPENDENT de-
clares President John SHELTON Williams.
The people of the South have viewed
with alarm the rumors and reports of
the merging of all the great Independent
systems of railroads south of the Poto-
mae. The North Carolina Legislature
ought long ago to have made such mono
poles in transportation impossible. If
the bill introduced by Hon. John II. Pear
son in 1897 had Tassed, North Carolina
would be in a position to Join South
Carolina and Georgia in an effective fight
to prevent such monopolies. 1t would
have prevented the dismembermcnt of the
Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley system.
TIE next Legislature ought to veto the
desire of the railroad lobby and pass a
law that would check monopoly in trans
p%ortation.
In the meantime all good citizens re-
joice to read the declaration of Mr.. Will
liams that "the Seaboard will remain in
DEPENDENT" and they will wish him sue
cess in his fight to prevent the feared
railroad monopoly in the South.

lions will make it harder ard harder for
the weekly paper to grow.
Not many years ago most people had
to depend upon a star route for a week
ly mail. They could not get a paper
oftner than once a week. That was the
period for the high water mark of the
circulation of the weekly paper. Then.
too, the daily newspapers were forced TO
charge a high price for subscription.
Now, with free rural delivery reaching
the homes of most farmers in the early
morning. and the lower subscription price
of the daily paper, the circulation of the
dailies has grown rapidly. This is not
seen so much in North Carolina, where
free rural delivery is in it's infancy, as in
those States which are ~honeycombed
with these doorstep daily delivery mails.
c~ulation Of the daily paper has grown
rapidly in recent years, while most
religious and other weekly papers de-
pendent upon general circulation have not
grown at all. LII ldcl lever "eehls pa
pers are sent out from Raleigh today than
ten years ago, while the daily circula-
ton has grown rapidly. The weekly pa
per printed by the News and Observer has
shown comparatively little increase in
circulation, while within eight short
years the circulation of the daily News
and Observer has grown from 1900 to
400.
All religious papers are printed week
ly. 1t is not. therefore, BECAUSE they
are religious, but because they are issued
staunchest clientele have prospered and
increased in circulation and in influence.
There is another reason, too, touched
upon by the Christian Advocate. 1t is
that the daily newspapers largely fill
the need. OF course there are those that
cater to the irreligious and the vicious,
but most American newspapers appeal to
the best element of the community. The
bulk of the daily papers give much
space to the discussion of religious and
ethical questions, and thereby to that
extent lessen the demand for the pure
ly religious paper.
There is room, however, today, and
need for a great religious illustrated
newspaper in America. 1t must be non
UNCONVENTIONAL, must be as live as the
secular paper, must employ the best tai
ent, must be illustrated by the best ar
tists-it must be just as elegant as any
secular publication and must be attract
i've to the eye. England has such a paper.
It's circulation has grown and it's sales
on the news stands keep pace with the
sale of the most popular secular period
icals. The man who will establish such q
journal in New York city will be a ma
tional benefactor and will in time make
it pay as we'll as any periodical in the
metropolis.

The Raleigh Christian Advocate of last
week discusses the question and says:
Never before nave the religious pa
pers of North Carolina had so many
readers in proportion to population, and
never before have these papers been so
prosperous.
-Four years ago the Methodists in the
State had one paper with a circulation
of about 5000 copies. Now they have
two papers whose combined circulation
is over ten thousand copies. The Raj
eigh Christian Advocate alone has now
as many subscribers as the North Caro-
lima Christian Advocate had four years
ago when it was the organ of both Con-
fcrences. The Biblical Recorder has a
larger circulation han ever before. The
Presbyterian Standard, which a few years
ago was a small sheet, is now a thirty
two page paper, with a circulation twice
as large as it was several years ago. The
Christian Sun is stronger han ever be-
fore. 1t will be hard to convince the in
telligcnt people of North Carolina that
there is a decadence in her religious

"BACKWARD!"
And Not Forward" Is
The Slogan Of The
Democrats.

No sooner had the state demo.
cratic convention been organized
ut Denver than 1t was evident that
the Cleveland democracy were IN
the saddle. Charley Thomas. who
in 1894 helped the republicans to
redeem the state from populist
misrule", WAS elected chairman.
One of his hcnchmcn, Frank I.enry,
who few years ago pretended To
Ike populist for revenue only J,
when the question IF business came
up. declared there was no excuse
for fusion as there was nothing to
fuse with except crew Of pirates.
This was said after Senators Teller
and Patterson had both made able
speeches IN favor Of recognizing
the populist party. The wishes of
both United States senators were
swept aside bv the utterances of
a hlatherskite and the democrats
decided to 90 1t alone and no, be
embarrassed BY popnllsm, and then
proceeded TO nominate a strai.h,
ticket.
