churchman who devotes all his time to
church matters, but he was active in
public affairs at all times. During the

1t is refreshing in these days when
we hear SO much talk about the low
state OF the States finances to hear

was collected for the whole Of last

increased to $132,O34.O3 from $32,

The largest amount collected from
insurance companies in North Caro-

$S4, STOPS. This large increase has
not been made at the expense of the
Supervisor of Insurance Companies,
as it is we'll known that never before
has this been so well done in the
State. The whole expense of the In

to $4,000 annually, while formerly

this remedy and when the coughing spell

it very mildly. | had no idea that it would

PISIOL-TOTING AND MURDER,
Charlotte News.

Charlotte News.
The press of North Carolina is ac-
lively agitating the closely related
questions of murder and pistol-tot-
ing and the best people of the State
are hoping aud praying that good
may come of it. There has been much
discussion, pro and con, of the sever
al degrees of murder and the varying
penalties and there will be much
more before Il satisfactory state of
affairs is reached. Ii we cannot ad-
monish the sinner to obey the law,
then we must amend the law to reach
the sinner The formeris preferable,
OF course. A satisfactory solution of
the grave peril, viz: the cheapness at
which human life is held, will never
be attained until human agencies
cease the effort to improve upon the
law of God. There is but one extern
uating circumstance. one excuse for
the Staying of Il fellow-man and that
plea holds good only in dire necessi-
ty. All other excuses-all so-called
degrees of murder, pale into insignif-
icance and nothingness before the di-
rect, plain, implicit command of Al
mighty God-"Thou shall do nc

LAWYERS AND THE OBSERVANCE
OF THE LAW.

The Enfield Ledger, whose editor
is himself lawyer, says this under
the above heading:
If we may be allowed a criticism of
lawyers as class it is that they are
not sufficiently observant of the law
which it is their business to enforce
or rather to interpret, and which
they are sworn to obey. The teach
ing by example is the most powerful
known to man, and the influence OF
one upright life in the strict observ-
ance of the laws of the land is more
potent than many sermons and hon.
lilies.
This thought is suggested by the
recent awful tragedy in Raleigh by
which one life was blotted out, an
other burdened with sorrow for the
remainder of this life. the relatives
on both sides overwhelmed with af-
Fiction and the public at large
shocked and thrown into consterna-
tion by the horrible calamity.
The survivor OF the tragedy is
lawyer of prominence, having one of
the largest incomes from law in the
State, and having the management
OF estates amounting to several mil
lions of dollars. And yet he was vio-
lating the law he had sworn to sup
port by carrying concealed weapons.
Had this not been so the awful trag-
edy would not have taken place and
if any difficulty had occurred it
could easily have been settled by the
police.
This carrying of concealed weapons
is the cause of more violent deaths
than any other breach of the law,
and the solicitors of the State should
see that every case is prosecuted
without fear or favor.

In the sorrow of this hour our
heartfelt sympathy goes forth to

diseases are preventable by the action
OF the community, State or nation.
Where such action is necessary to
make the civilization in which we
