room rent six dollars a year; board in
private families, $125 a week, or $50 |

purposes, 1t is recommended that every

Congressman McCleary of Minnesota
in a letter to some of his constituents
answers these questions in broad,
comprehensive, clear and philoSOphi-
cal manner Ten years ago the people
of the United States were persuaded
that prices were too high and that in
order to bring about a general reduc-
ton in values the Mckinley Tariff
should be repealed. 1t was repealed,
and prices fell nightly Four years
later the problem was, How shall
prices be increased? This time the
Democratic solution was, A Fifty-Cent
Dollar. Mckinley pointed out a BET
ter way to restore the good prices that
had been fooliShly flung away in 1892.
His plan was to open the mills instead
of the minis His plan was adopted
Prices revived under the workings of a

resulted, greater than any people in
any period of human history had eyer
known That prosperity has continued
for nearly five years. There is no

it is contended that prices are too
high Once again it is proposed to
lower prices by Tariff revision. It was
done in that way eight years ago 1t

CONDEMNED IN MISSOURI AND CON.
FISCATED IN NEW YORK

Judge Clarke OF ST. Louis has con-
victed and fined heavily a number of
Erocers for selling baking powders
containing alum
The week before the Health Depart
ment of New York seized a quantity
of stuff being sold for baking powder
which they found was made from
alum mixed with ground rock, and
dumped it into the river
The Health Authorities are thus
taking effective means to prevent the
introduction into our markets of in
furious substitutes in place of whole
some baking powders
As alum costs only two cents a
pound. there is great temptation for
those manufa cturers who make sub
stitutes and imitation goods. to use
it. Alum baking powders can be de-
tected by the health authorities by
chemical analysis, but the ordinary
housekeeper. whose assistance in pro-
tecting the health of the people is i'm
animation. She may easily know the
alum powders, however, from the fact
that they are sold at from ten TO
twenty cents for a pound can,
that some prize-like spoon or
glass, or piece of crockery, wooden
ware-is given with the powder as an
inducement-
AS the people continue to realize the
Importance of this subject and con-
SumerS insist on having baking pow

tez-, and the health authorities con
tinue their vigorous cruSades, the
alum danger will, it is hoped, finally
be driven from our homes.

statement that he has changed his

join the knitting that industry by a
reduction of 20 per cent of the Tariff

Not So Strange.

The Providence journal thinks it
strange that the promoters of the beet
sugar industry should have been able
to hold up legislation for Cuban relief
Does the Journal forget that the
domestic producers a held a specific
pledge from the Republican party
that their industry shall be Protected?
Is it so strange that they should ask
the honorable fu1fillment of this pledge,
and that a considerable number of
loyal and consistent Protectionists in
Con gress should do all in their power
to prevent the violation of this pledge?
The strange thing about it is that there
should be a single Republican mem
Der of Congress claiming to be a Pro-
tectionist in favor of withholding from
the domestic growers their just and
lawful right to the same measure of
Protection that is granted to other do
nestle producers.

should Be CareruL

No tariff is perfect, even for the
time at which it is framed Every
tariff act, like legislation of any
other Sos, is compromise among
diverse interests. 1t satisfies no one
entirely. and it grows, in spots, less
and less satisfactory as time alters
conditions But there is always a
chance that when any revision at all
of a tariff is attempted, the whole sys-
tenn is taken up for discussion In
every instance when tariff changes
have been started the changes have
affected more articles than the chang
es intended at the outset One of the
consequences of this tinkering has
been that men in nearly all sorts of
industries have been made uncertain
regarding the outlook, and as con
sequence enterprise is b1ighted for the
time
The Republican party has a special
incentive to be careful about tariff tin
kering at the present time An cleo
ton for Congress Will take place some
months hence, and congressional cleo

Always iron from the top of the waist

ironed it should be well aired by the

Chatham Record.)

The reunion of the Confederate voter
ans, to be held at Greensboro on the
10Th and 21st of August, will be the
most successful and largest attended
that has ever been held in this State.
All the railroad companies in this State
have agreed to give the low rate OF a
cent mile to all persons who may at
tend, whether they be veterans or not.
This will greatly reduce the expense of
the trip and insure large attendance.
Governor Aycock has kindly given the
use of the tents of the State Guard. and
the veterans and other public spirited
citizens of Greensboro will furnish ra-
tons free to all veterans who are ur-
able to provide for themselves. An op-
portunity is thus afforded to the poorest
OF our veterans to attend and enjoy the
occasion with their old comrades. On
the second day of the reunion it is pro-
posed to have the grandest parade of
veterans ever seen in North Carolina
Let the eXConfederates in every part
of the State begin to get ready for this
grand reunion. which for so many will
be their last. AS soon as all the ar
rangements and programme are made

Editor Reflector:
What are the facts as the rank and
file of the Democratic party sec it with
reference to the charges against Judge
Clark? Nine tenths of the party endorse
Judge Clark for Chief. Justice of the
Supreme Court. Why? Because as a
Superior Court Judge and as Associate
Justice of the Supreme Court his very
able and fair decisions have met with
the hearty approval of the people. He
has rendered the State immense service
in other ways, for which every true
Confederate soldier and sympathzer with
the cause for which they gave up so
much should feel grateful. This service
was rendered without reward or the
nope of reward. But few men in the
state could have done this work so
WELL
The charges made by and through
Governor Russell, the railroad and other
corporations agent, have all fallen fiat
why do | say so? Have not nine coun-
Ties out OF ten that have held their con-
Ventlons endorsed Clark? Shall nine
tenths OF the party allow the four hun
dred Mckinley Democrats. the agents of
the Southern Railway, Governor Rus
sell and a few Democrats who swallow
all they read in the Raleigh Post, to
dictate the nominations of the Demo-
cratic party? God forbid.
1t means something to the railroads
to be able to control the Supreme Court
for the next eight years 1t behooves
the people to see that this combination
of Republicans straight, Republicans in
disguise and railroad Democrats are
thwarted in their efforts.
Pitt county appreciates the past valu-
able services of Judge Clark, and believes
when the county convention meets. nine
tcnths of her vote. if not ninety-nine
one hundredths, will be cast for Judge
Clark.
| first knew Walter Clark thirty six
years ago, when the seventeen-year- old
boys were made men in General John

had not been splendid material he would
