N. C. BUILDING STONE.
Exhibit at St Louis Will be Fine 0ne--Ex-
perts Report Great Success

Dr. Thomas l.. Watson, of Denison Col
lege, Granville, Ohio, and Mr.. Laney, of
Wisconsin, are in town. They are eX
perts in the line of building stones both
from a commercial and scientific stand
point, and they have been engaged during
the summer collecting specimens and in
formation and statistics of our many and
varied resources along this line. They
report very great success and as a result
it is thought that the North Carolina ex-
hibit of building and monumental mate
rial at the great Worlds Fair next year
will be not only a source OF great pride
to our own people. but the most valuable
advertisement that the natural construc-
tive stone OF the State has ever received.
Some entirely new and very valuable de-
posits have been discovered by these
gentlemen. and it is hoped that the start
that has been made along these lines at
places like Mt. Airy. the deposits near
Salisbury, and several other conspicuous
ones, will prove to have been the begin
ming of commercial boom In North
Carolina building stone.

THE TOBACCO DISEASE.
Or. Kilgore's Bulletin Asks for Specimens to
be Sent to the Station.

DR. b. w. Kilgore, Director of the Ag-
ricultural Experiment Station, has issued
the following bulletin regarding the de-
structive tobacco disease that has recent
ly broken out in some parts of the State.
"a very destructive tobacco disease has
recently broken out with extreme violence
in certain portions of the State. 1t is the
desire of the station to accumulate all in
formation concerning the disease which
may lead to the checking~o of its ravages.
The point now most to be desired is to
find out how widely the disease is dis
tributed over the State. To that end We
request that all people interested in to-
bacco growing, who are troubled with any
diseases of their tobacco plants will send
specimens consisting of the lower part
of the stem and the roots to the station.
We particularly desire these specimens If
the disease consists of the willing of the
leaves, accompanied by brown color in
that portion of the stem just outside of
the bark. We urge upon all tobacco
growers the Importance of notifying the
station Immediately after this disease APP
pears in the neighborhood, so that we may
advise as to the means of preventing its
spread. Two diseased stalks in the field
this year may mean the loss of the entire
crop the next year you put tobacco on

The sharp fight for the establishment of
dispensary in Raleigh is to begin with

Work has not been left undone since
the petition was made for the election, but
from September the eighth the fight will
be pushed and the matter will be clearly
presented to the people.
Shortly after the meeting on the eighth
of September, Rev. George Stewart will be
here and will speak in behalf of the cause.
During the campaign tits the purpose to
have open air meetings in every precinct
in every ward and to make a fight from

AS SEEN IN ATLANTA.
The Atlanta News has a red hot com
ment on the Hamlet dinner and speaks
as follows:
Because it is true that though you may
break vase as you will the scent of the
roses will linger there still, we apprehend
that the innkeeper at Hamlet will find it
difficult to obliterate the traces and the
memories of the Booker Washington din.
ner, and we are nearly or quite certain
that until such traces and memories are
entirely removed, Hamlet, once dear to
the travellers heart, will be a station to
be avoided at any cost.
THE part that Booker Washington is
reported to have played in the little seriO-
comedy, while not surprising-to those who
have had the felicity of seeing Booker in
those sections where the law, written and
unwritten, does not hamper him-will
come as disappointment to those white
people of the South who have been ac-
customed to esteem him a model of good
sense and sane behavior and perhaps as
bit of IA revelation. Which may be just
as well as not. 1t is just as well, however,
and much more fair to wait for Booker's
side of the story.
"A great surprise, however, is afforded
in the remarkable action of the inn keeper
in charge of the Hting house. The why
and the wherefore of it the Seaboard will
probably take occasion to set out as soon
as possible. OF all the railroads in the
South, the Seaobard in its ownership and
management is perhaps the most distinctly
southern We feel sure that it will know
how to handle the incident. No such ex-
PLANTATION has been made as yet and lack
ing 1t, we are constrained to believe that
there must have been in authority around
Hamlet some simpleton, strange to those
parts, who thought to make hit with
the great black man and with the friends
and acquaintance he owned in whatever
province he, the simpleton. hailed from
For Booker Washington and for the
Seaboard Air Line the affair will again
be unfortunate if not disastrous The
prestige and the good Will which Booker
Washington had, through his conservative
words and advice, come to possess in this
section cannot but vanish in the face of
this action of his following so soon upon
the indiscretion of his dinner at the White
House

KEEP ARREsTING BIN.
What to Do With Watts Law Violator if g.
Operates After Being Bound Over.

The following inquiry was received from
Yadk nvile:
ITO the Editor: The Anti-Saloon
League has employed counsel and will
proceed at once to have warrants issued
for the violators of the Watts Law. The
question arises as to what course to pur-
sue after warrants have been issued and
the offenders have been tried and bound
to court, if they continue to operate their
dstilleries, which they will do. To stop
the business is what the Anti Saloon
League wants"
After consultation with a prominent law
yer of this city, the News and Observer
would advise that in case a distiller per-
sisted in carrying on his business after
being boun dover to court, warrants
be issued for each subsequent offense, or
for each day that he continues to violate
the law, and that he be compelled to give
bond in each case. The bond might be
made so large that he would have to go to
jail

BROTHERHOOD IS NOT
RESPONSIBLE.
Engineers Did Not Reinstate
Negroes as Firemen on
Locomotives.

The Greensboro Record, in an editorial
suggesting that the employment of negro
fremen by the Southern Railway had
much to do with the large number of
wrecks, says:
but if we remember correctly it was
not the roads that put on negro firemen.
Years ago they were employed and the
engineers as a body objected to them and
white helpers were used entirely, but this
made the crop of engineers larger-the
supply was getting to be greater than the
demand and the Brotherhood repealed the
rule regarding negro fremen and they
were reinstated. We are not sure to this,
but our recollection is that it is true.
In any event the conditions brought
about by their use as firemen has a great
deal to do with the large number of
wrecks"
Last night prominent member Of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,
told the News and Observer reporter tbs
was entirely incorrect. The only action
the Brotherhood had taken of late regard
ing firemen did not contain the word
negro in it. 1t was resolution asking
that the railroad companies select care
fully the men employed as firemen on loco
motives, so that they might have efficient
employees who might in time become en-
gineers. This, of course, was blow at
the negro firemen, for no negro can be-
come an engineer It's object further was
to try to insure to the engineering po-
fession a body of worthy young men as
recruits This resolution had never been
repealed, and can still be found on the
hooks of the Brotherhood

BREATHED TIE SMOKE AND FELL.
Three Firemsn Overcome at a Fire on the
Amsterdam
by the Associated Press

New York, Aug. 26.-Three firemen
were seriously overcome and several 9th
ers slightly affected by smoke from fire
in the hold of the Dutch bark "Amster-
dam lying at Pier II, East River today.
The vessel was loaded with case oil The
firemen were overcome as soon as they en-
tered the hold and they were rescued with
difficulty, the rescuing firemen being af-
fected by the smoke, but less seriously.
Two fire boats were unable to subdue the
flames and the bark was finally towed to
the Jersey flats and sunk.
Besides oil the vessel contained mis-
cellaneous cargo, most of which consisted
of cut glass. The loss on the cargo is es-
timated at 800, 900.
