Child Labor.

To the Editor: l should like tu
a few words through your column .
the child lager question, as public SEM.
ment in our State seems in fagar OFF
an act Of this kind, and as ther.
already been a bill introduced along .'
lines. l think the General Aa..uN.e
can readily see the Importance OF @
act of this kind, and It would NOT a-.
ply directly to the cotton min SECTORS
but to all manufactures IN which a.
drcn are employed. But taking tha.r.E
ton mill sections for example. wu ##.
that in tWcnty-thrcc cotton mlt u

We nave already about t~wenty-enar .r
thirty States that nave similar Law. r..
that we are trying to pass. There ..
possibly in all these mills and Factories
in this State about ten thousand boy.
and girls under fourteen years Of ar.
and of this number scarcely amy cam

urally arise. what arc we going to ao ,.t
this class; they will be growu-up ra.r
and women in a few years. Are We a=a-

that now is the time for the rcl..
North Carolina to ask for relief .'.0r
these lines when we find that fully
per cent of the colored children OF ''a
State are in school, and less than
per cent Of the white children are g.
school; is it not time then for our a#n
pie not only to ask that these children
be not allowed to work in the mills ami
factories, but that they be compelled ~
go to school for a certain number or
weeks in each year. To say nothing Of
the dangers these children are subjected
to in health and limb tho education part
is enough within itself to warrant the
passage of q bill for their relief. That
these children should not be reared in
this way, then il has been well said tlar

IAN ABLE PAPER"

The editor of this paper has been great
ly gratified at the expressions of APP
prevail from many sources of the leading
editorial in last Sundays News and OBJ
server. A few of the many have appear
ed in these columns, not because of a
desire to print words of praise about
the paper, but to show what many of
the best men in the State think about
the need of effective and progressive
temperance legislation. We take the
liberty of printing the following letter
from an eminent citizen of Virginia,
showing that the healthful sentiment
against intemperance is confined to no
State lines. He writes in a personal
note:
Your editorial on temperance legisla-
ton is one of the most remarkable edi-
tOrials l have ever read. 1t should take
rank among the able State papers of
North CAROLINA. In my judgment it is
EEanswerable. Next for a child labor
law! And continued power to your strong
right arm"
He is right. A proper child labor law
is the G. logical step.

The agonizing itching and burning
Of the skin, as in eczema; the frightful
scaling, as in psoriasis the loss of hair
and crusting Of the scalp, as in SCALED
head; the facial disfigurements, as in
pimples and ringworm ; the awful suf-

salt rheum,-all demand q remedy Of
almost superhuman virtues to success
fully cope with them. That Cuticura
Soap, Ointment and Pills are such
stands proven beyond all doubt. No
statement is made regarding them that
is not justified by the strongest evil
dence. The purity and sweetness, the
power to afford immediate relief, the
certainty of speedy and permanent
cure, the absolute safety and great
economy have made them the standard
skin cures, blood purifiers and humour
remedies of the civilized world.
Battle the affected parts with hot
water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the
surface of crusts and scales, and soften
the thickened cuticle. Dry, without
hard rubbing, and apply Cuticura ONT
mcnt freely, to allay itching, irritation
and Inflammation, and soothe and heal,
and, lastly, take the Cuticura Resolvent
Pills, to cool and cleanse the blood.
This complete treatment, costing but
