RIGHT SORT OF BOYS

Business men long ago quit employing
young men addicted to drink. Now they
are shutting the door to young men who
do what is injurious to their health and
woodworking cigarettes. Tuesday
Statesville Landmark contained this adver-
tisement:
WANTED.-Smart boy not afraid to
work. Cigarette smokers and loaters need
not apply. Statesvnle Steam Laundry.
Within three hours twenty three boys
applied for the job and everyone of them
solemnly declared that he did not smoke
cigarettes. This shows that Statesville has
the right sort of boys, and in that town
they are growing men who will have physi
cal and mental stamina.

In North Carolina, the Governor is crit
icised (and sometimes wisely for the use
of the pardoning power. In New Jersey
they criticise the board of pardons. The
New York Sun protests that the paroll-
ing of Barker by the Board of Pardons
shows the inadequacy of pardoning
board who, because they do not feel any
individual responsibility for what they do,
and by their action, as in this case, undo
the careful and deliberate act of a sworn
jury"

Several attempts to ABOLISH these Gus
toms houses have been attempted. but all
have failed Two causes operate to pre-
vent their abolition: l. The argument
that, though they collect no revenues, it
is necessary to have customs officers at
these places to prevent wholesale SNUG
Cling, and 2. The active fight of the in
cumbents, aided by members of Congress.
1t might be possible to provide against
smuggling at less cost.

Northern men who come South, after
staying awhile, are more severe in their
criticism OF negroes than Southern born
whites. A Canadian, who is engaged in
the lumber business in Halifax county,
North Carolina, is thus quoted by cor
respondent of the Richmond Times Dis
patch: Il came to North Carolina thor
oughly convinced that the people of that
State and of the South generally, were
unjust in their treatment of the negro,
but | honestly believe now that the whites
are too good to the blacks. / am willing
to admit that there are a few good ole
darkeys, but the good ones are old ones

WHERE WOMEN WEAR PANTS.

1t has been long since the question of
women appearing in mans apparel has
been agitated in this country, and DR..
Mary Walkers eccentricity was fully
accepted. In France the government
regulates the matter, and the privilege
is only conferred as a kind of honor,
and even then the woman wishing to
wear full masculine attire must pay
the equivalent of $40 for the right.
Only a few women have acquired such
license, and the list includes George
Sand, Rosa Bonheur Nine. Dieulafoy, a
noted Persian archeologist; Nine. Fou-
calf the bearded woman Nine. Four
reau and Nine. Jeanette, the sculp-
tors.
