The Biblical Recorder believes that
North Carolina is coming into her
own. 1t finds the State growing in a
thousand ways, and mentions par
ticularly the activity of towns and
cities and the educational movement,
and it says:
Back OF all is the Industrial movement
There is new life in North Carolina be-
cause there is new business The mills
have stirred the State from border to
border and to it's very heart in the back
country-not only cotton mills but all
manner ofwood- working establishments
Each of them gives work to men who
found it hard to live in the country on
rented land; each brings new population
from the backwoods, where it was most
ly useless, and gives it place and power
for service; each makes Il new market for
the farmer and the merchant; each in
Crca4es the income of the State by multi
plying upon the value of the raw product,
both of men and material; each brings
new men into contact with each other
aud into tn" region of progress
The mills have stirred the State
from border to border, and to it's
very heart in the back country" Yet
the efforts of cool thinkers to stem
the agitation which would check this
stirring of the State by the mills has
only recently led the Biblical Recorder
to blindfold its brain and unbridle
its tongue in unjustifiable vitupera-
ton OF them. But it is beginning to
see the light.

THE PRESIDENT AND THE SOUTH.

Charlotte Observer.
This President of ours-who can
ever guess where he is going to bre ak
out next? In his address at the din
ner recently given in Washington in
honor of Justice Harlan, of the Su-
preme Court of the United States. he
said in part:
SIN any audience in any State OF the
Union, take it as far North as you wish,
l can appeal with confidence to the peo-
pie | address, when | say that next to
the homage we pay to the men who
proved the truth of their endeavOr az
they battled in the blue uniform, is the
homage we pay to the men, who, with
equal sincerity, wore the gray.
"And, gentlemen, l am half South
erner myself. Two Of my uncles fought
in the Confederate navy. One of them
served under the father-in-law' (Raphael
Semmes) OF Vice Governor Luke Wright,
OF the Philippine Islands. And think
have the right that, knowing the South
ern people as do, | would heartily ad-
vocate fighting twice as hard as you
fought from 81 to 80 for the privilege
OF staying in the same Union with them"
What could be handsomer than
that? He was not addressing an
audience of Southerners, but the oc-
casion was such that he rather went
out of his way to say it. And it is
not the first time. Mr.. Roosevelt has
said harsh things of the South in the
past, and he has said and done
things since be has been President
that the South cannot approve, but
much is to be forgiven him for the
generous sentiments about it that he
has at different times uttered-nons
handsomer or more generous than
those that are quoted above.

NEGRO LYNCHlNG IN BOSTON.
Norfolk Virginian-Pilot.

Norfolk Virginian-Pilot
In Boston on Monday an angry
crowd of 1000 people tried to lynch
Il negro and was prevented from so
doing with great difficulty by the
police who responded hurriedly to q
riot call
And the occasion of the demonstras
ton was not the same that usually
leads to a lynching in the South. He
had been guilty OF no fiendish or in
human crime. He had merely drawn
knife on n white man with whom
he had an alteration. Women and
children, it is said. were knocked
down and trampled upon by the mob
in its efforts to get at the negro.
Ii the same incident had occurred
in the South a policeman would have
arrested the negro and, without in
reference from the crowd. would
have quietly taken him to the lock-
up.
We lynch negroes down here for in
human crimes only. in negrophilistic
Boston they want to lynch him for
drawing a knife.

FOOLISH AND DANGEROUS PRAC.

KIIelEh Post.
~ We have not reached the age when
We would deny young people amuse-
ment, even noisy amusement, when
carried on in decency and with a sen-
sible regard for the rights and safety
OF each other or Others. but it seems
that such sense cannot always
abound. The firing of Roman cam
dies at people, especially women, or
throwing crackers SO as to explode
near persons is not only senseless
but dangerous, and the idiot who
does so should be locked up. One
person was seriously injured by hay
ing Il cracker explode near his face,
thrown by some foolish fellow, while
women were endangered by the
Roman candle nuisance The short
est way to stop such recklessness is
to arrest and punish by imprisOn-
ment every individual who is guilty
OF such conduct, whether actual in
jury results or not. The explosion
OF these fireworks can be INDUCED in
without endangering the limb, eyes
or body of Others, and when one is
so foolish as to use them recklessly
or carelessly stop ought to be put
to his foolish career promptly. No
reasonable person will object to fun
if entered upon with reason, though
it may be even schockingly noisy;
but the idiots who butt in on all such
occasions for the purpose of "show-
ing off, should be locked up for the
time being. The police can do pub
lie service by collaring any and all
persons caught in acts endangering
limbs or property.

DEATH OF ROBERT K. REID
A Veteran of the Civil War and 8
 Respscted Citizen.


 Robert K. Reid died yesterday at his home, 90 Park avenue, after a short illness. MT Reid was born in Brussels, Belgium, June Is, 1S15, where the family was then stopping, his father. Captain Thomas D. Reid of the Royal Horse artillery, being engaged under Wellington at Waterloo, where Bona parte, the great French soldier, ended his military career. In lS42 MT Reid married Miss Elizabeth McMilian at Belfast, Ireland, and in the same year the couple came to the United States and settled in Hartford, where they re- mained until 1856, when they removed to Waterbury, where Mir Reid had ac- cepted position as one of the several boot and shoemakers in the employ of MT Schneider. who kept large store on South Main street, on the spot where the Bohl building now stands. His wife died in 1885 and some time later he married Miss Sarah Whittle, another Belfast girl who, with one daughter, Anna Belle, 15, and two chil- dren by his first wife, ex-Police Officer Thomas D. Reid, now of Stratford. and Mrs Sarah Reid of Hartford, sur yive him.
 MT Reid was a veteran of the civil war and could tell interesting rem iniscences of that awful struggle He served in Company A. Twenty-third regiment and Company A, Seventh regiment Together with his son, Rob- ert K. Reid, and others, he was taken prisoner at Petersburg and sent to Lib bey prison, Richmond where he re- mained for three weeks, when they %z AY11 A this place young Reid died of starva- ton in his fathers arms, and the old gentleman could draw 2 most pathetic picture of that incident up to the time he was called away. Last week he visited his son, Thomas D. Reid, at Stratford. and appeared in his usual good health. but after being there day or so he was taken i'll with pa ralysis and a physician was called. He was anxious to get home and on Satur- day he was brought here, and after reaching home said he felt much better and rallied so that his family thought he would be all right in short tune. But in this they were disappointed. After n brave struggle he died early yesterday morning. Mir Reid was one of the oldest and best known shoe makers in Waterbury and was unfver- sally esteemed by all who had an ac- quaintance with him.
 Funeral service will be held at the house at 7:so o'clock tonight by the Rev F. D. Buckley of Trinity church. The remains win be taken to Hartford for burial tomorrow on the S:3S tram in charge of Undertaken Spain. The inter1nent will be in Zion Hill ceme- tery. beside the ashes of Miss Eliza ebth McAfiflan that was, whom he mar ried in Belfast over sixty years ago.
