WILL GO ALONG WITH THE REST.

Since slot machines have been
knocked out Il Raleigh man has i'll
vented another kind of machine that
lodges the law. This new machine
is kind of rifle target with several
bulls eyes attached, and some of
these eyes when struck by rifle ball
tilt over a cup i'll which is whatever
amount is won by the shot. Possibly
the next Legislature can knock out
that machine along with the Others.
-Greenville Reflector.
This machine will doubtless go
along with the rest of 'em. North
Carolina Legislatures seem to have
two leading ideas in view, to knock
out things and to tax things; and
this they can be depended Oh to do.

Roosevelt and Race Antagonist.

LINCOLN. Neb., Aug. 21st.-Discuss-
ing the recent letter of President
Roosevelt to Governor Durbin on
lynching and race prejudice, W. j..
Bryan said:
The Republican leaders are stirring up
race antagonism in this country in order
to keep the colored vote solid for the Re-
publican party. Even the President has
contributed more than his share to the
agitation. When he has appointed a
colored man to office he has done it with
a flourish of trumpets and brass band
accompaniment. When a colored post
mistress was objected to he refused to
allow her to resign and closed the Office.
And did it allay race prejudice? No; it
did more to excite race prejudice than
any colored appointments that President
Mckinley made. The Booker T. Wash
ington dinner at the White House did
even more harm than the post Office ill.,
cident to excite race prejudice.

State asyIums at the rate of about fifty month. and that an Iowa court has just ruled that their constitutional rights are not violated by their detention. Some of the inebriates don't like to be sent up, but the treatment they get seems to be hu- mane and salutary. Their liquor is stopped, and they have to work on farms an1 are encouraged to improve their hab- its. When they seem to be cured they are discharged. and report says that so far about 75 per cent. of the cases have so resulted.
 That. as we said. is new departure and 1t is radical one. Whether 1t will be successful in the long run remains to be seen; but 1t strikes us as going to work in the right direction. If drunk enness is only a disease as some claim, let 1t be treated in special institutions If 1t Is an offense. as others contend then the plan of locking up the offenders is good one. It Is both punishment and preventive. If 1t reduces the habit so much is gained, whether We regard it as treatment or punishment. It Is not necessary. however, to insist that all who drink are drunkards, or to argue that nothing but total abstinence is temper ance.

RICHARDS AND HIS WORK.
He Has Opened the Eyes of the World to the Riches of the South.

Washington Post.
 The people of the South.' said MT Thomas r. Grasty, Vice President of the Manufacturers Record of Baltimore. owe an enormous debt of gratitude to Mir. M. V. Richards the wide-a wake industrial agent of the Southern Railway. MT. Rich ards has done great things for all that big scope of country penetrated by the lines of the Southern system. He has aroused the people of Virginia. the Caro- linas, Georgia and Alabama to a realiza- ton of the wonderful possibilities of these States
 He has, moreover. perfected an organ iZation that for efficiency is ahead of any of the great railroad corporations of the West Through his efforts Eastern men desirous of establishing industries in the South have obtained the speediest, most accurate and comprehensive data, and many paying enterprises have been start ed in the South because of Mir Richards S labors. His statistics cover the entire field and there is no item of information as to soil, climate and products he cannot supply.
 Best of all. he has caused the South erners to realize that there are better ways of making money than the old-time plan of speculating in cotton. By point ing out the advantages of cooperation in the establishment of mills to utilize their raw material. the same system that built up New England industrially. he has per formed a service of,incalculable value, and the continuation of that policy is going to make the South eventually one of the richest portions of the continent"

MT. cleveland's Example.

fhlladelphla BreSS.
 MT. Cleveland proposes to do his duty as citizen SO long as his health permits and bear his share of the responsibilities belonging to every man in free govern ment. The eN-Presidents example in this respect shoald he an inspiration to those who think that they have no public du- ties to perform There Is too much shirk- ing of political responsibilities in this country. There are too many middlc-aGed men sitting on the porches of summer resort hotels and asserting that they nev- CT vote. and too many young men who can thread all the intricate mazes of a waltz, but who are ready with sheer and a profession of ignorance when politics are mentioned. "Oh, I suppose We will get along somehow" said a gentleman who was loling with his elbows on d banquet table while the question of city govern ment was being discussed. and who con fessed afterward that he had not cast a ballot in ten years. It is good to have one conspicuous example like MT, Clevc- land. of q man who is not ashamed to say that he stiu takes an interest in poll tics. although he can expect to gain m higher political honors than those he has had, He is a living protest against indif- ference and the shirking of political du- ties

Money in Vegetables.

IhOblle fNeSlSl6r.
 ApropOs a conversation relating to the vegetable prospects for this season, Mr. J. :, Taylor, general agent of the Mohile and Ohio Railway, said yesterday that he believed this was one of the most impor- tant industries for Mobile.
 Tn money sense of the word said he. vegetables are worth more to Mobile than cotton, though we are the king city Tor this product. Last year there were shipped through Mobile 0.0OO bales od cotton which, at an average of $50 per bale would mean about ten milliokr dol lars. But the fact is, one dollar a bale for Mobile is big average
 Last year the Mobile and Ohio Railw ay shipped $50 carloads of vegeta hles-caa1- bage, potatoes, beans. This meant aboSlt $32O,0O0 for Mobile. This sounds pretty log to those who do not keep in touch wiEn this industry, but those who know W ill say that it is conservative. I don't thiIak there is much use worrying over the veg etable situation, for. while the farmets are not juhilant. they are going to do about as well as ordinarily, and Mobile nishing vegetables to the world" niShing Vegetablesto the world ''

TEMPERANCE AND THE RE-
 VERSE.

Referring to the statement made by an extremist to the. effect that no man who ever drinks liquor can be a sober or a temperate man, The Richmond Times-Dispatch declares that it is non sense "to say that no man can use all coholic liquors without getting drunki without injury to himself or to others. it Is not true, we have controverted the statement It never does any cause good either to misrepresent or to overstate the truth"
 Of course such talk Is nonsense. It would be just as sensible and truthful to say that any man who talks is liable to tell lies; therefore a man ought not to talk That would be as sound reasoning as to say that any man who drinks any spirituuus liquor must get drunk. Men drink and get drunk. Others drink and remain sober Some men shorten their lives by the use of drink. Others use it in moderation and live far beyond the threescore years and ten of the Psalm ist. Some man may say, as Dr. Johnson expressed himself: Abstinence Is as easy to me as temperance would be dfi- cult" and for that man abstinence is best. The man who, like the thirsty earth, drinks and gapes for drink again" had better not begin.
 We have scant patience for those who think there can be no temperance but in total abstinence. and We have still less with those who insist that the use of strong drink in any form or in any quan- tity is always detrimental to life and health There are those who cannot drink or eat temperately. and they are to be pitied. There are also those who cannot talk temperately. They are also entitled to pity. The one who is able to enjoy the good things of this life with moderation is the rational being. Drunk enness Is a great evil. There can be no controversy over that point How best to abate 1t or to prevent it is the ques- ton which good people have worried over for years. We note that the State of Iowa has inaugurated a new departure, of which a contemporary thus speaks:
 They passed a law in Iowa last year permitting the confinement of confirmed drunkards in lunatic asylums. It made little stir, but within eight months 300 alcoholic patients were under restraint and treatment. An Iowa dispatch says that anebrtates continue to flow into tbe

The Portland Oregonian calls attention to what it calls The renaissance of the sailor" alluding to the fact that the in- creasing price and scarcity of fuel bids fair to bring back the sailing vessels for 5ect. Passengers will still patronize the steamers, which will also still be used for perishable freight, but The Oregonian predicts that sailing vessels are going to vastly cut down the business of trans portation across the ocean. Germany now has ship which carries 1000 tons of freight. and the Germans are building a still larger one. showing their confidence in sailing vessels.

Who is it that is responsible for the in crease in the price of diamonds? Has somebody cornered them or is 1t merely an effort to bull the market? It has been but short time since an advance of 5 per cent. was announced, and now we learn that like increase has just been ordered, with prospects of a still further rise. We suspect that the hotel clerks and the actresses have formed a trust and are putting up the price to keep common people from wearing them. A great supply of diamonds yet and may have to go without. It is very sad.
