ELECTION TOMORROW.

Tomorrow the voters of the city OF
Raleigh will vote whether they will con-
tinue to license saloons or close them
up and substitute dispensary in their
place.
1t is an election of Importance to the
city This paper, with malice toward
none,'' has advocated the abolition of the
saloons. because we believe that the
saloon is the worst solution of the liquor
problem. With today's issue. this paper
has said its last word. The eyes of all the
temperance people of the State are upon
Raleigh We hope in Tuesdays issue to
carry them the glad tidings that the tenn
perance forces at the States capital have
won a great victory.
Raleigh always holds quiet and peace
full elections. It's people stand earnestly
for their convictions, but they are law
abiding and. believe in ascertaining the
will of the people by the legally pre-
scribed methods. This election will be
no exception. The contest. viii be waged
without let up until the polls close, and
there will be the usual and proper ac-
quiescence in the result honestly attained.

WHAT THE TOBACCO SLUMP"
MEANS,

The tremendous slump in the price of
tobacco, (caused by the determination of
the tobacco trust to exercise their power
to take this crop at less than the cost
of production) is more far-reaching than
is generally known. Their arbitrary put
ting down OF the price of tobacco has al
ready transferred more than million
dollars from the pockets Of the farmers
of North Carolina to the pockets of the
trust. The Wilson Times thus sums up
the big loss in Wilson:
"Sales for August, 1902, 2,.8O,54 pounds,
which sold for $316,13.1S, an average OF
s1O62.
SALES for August, 1908, 61,975, which
brought s29, 6O9 30, an average of S4.46.

20 PROBE TIE BOND SCANDAL

II is to be regretted that the Wake
court grand jury was unable last week to
probe the scandal of stealing the bonds of
Mr.. Godfrey and holding him up in the
road and compelling him TO pay ore thou
sand dollars for their return. 1t is graft
flying TO know that the grand jury takes
the right view of the action and recon-
mends thorough investigation by the
next grand jury. 1t is recommendation
which we commend and call upon the
judge and solicitor to aid that body in
making full and complete.
If burglar can steal mans bonds
and can be free from punishment, by en-
ploying il lawyer to extort an unholy
sum from the owner of the bonds,-if that
can be done with impunity in North
courts can and should compel disclosure
of all the facts relating to thes hold
up of Mr.. Godfrey, and to take such
action as will at least prevent repetition
of such highway robbery. Unless some
thing is done to punish the burglar, or
to ferret out the crime, we VIII put a
premium upon safe burglary. They car
with perfect safety steal securities, en-
ploy lawyer to conduct the negotiations,
ard get rich without. any danger of pun
ishment
