EDITOR AND MAYOR GET Rot.
Wilson Has the Real Thing in a Newspaper
Controversy on Hand

Wilson. N. c., Sept. 15.-Wilson is in
the midst of some excitement caused by
q difference of opinion about the reports
OF the Mayors court proceedings, his be-
ing between Editor John Gold, OF the
Daily Times, and Mayor Doane Herring.
A report was published IN the Times
concerning the matter of the trial of
negro for buying whiskey on Sunday and
of the bar-keeper who sold it. The negro
was sent to the roads for so days for non
payment of fine of $40 and Langley, the
bartender, was fined $40. The Times
printed a report and declared this a
travesty on law and justice.
Mayor Herring declared that Editor
Gold was not giving correct reports and
denied him access to the court records.
He publishes a card in which he quotes
the law to show that grossly inaccurate
reports arc in contempt of court and re-
ferring to Editor Gold says Il intend
holding you personally responsible for
your future representations OF my court
And to prevent your attempt to cast the
blame upon another and saying that he
told it to you that way, the clerks office
and my docket are closed to you, IN so
far as my court is concerned, but the
Mayors office IS open, where you can take
down the cases as they occur, and l shall
hold you to strict account for the truth
of your statement"
Editor Gold refers to Mayor Herring as
Car Herring and His Majesty, and says
that Mayor Herring is in a hole and is
being guyed by the boys and Is hot IN the
collar. He prints full Mayors court pro-
cccdngs and in his paper says We don't
want to so on the roads, but continue to
publish the proceedings of the only Cars
court in the State, where the newspaper
man is debarred from the records. Wilson
is entitled to have everything, and we've
got the real thing in our Mayor, who puts
practically all of his cases under the
head of disorderly conduct, to prevent
the people from finding out the offense
and keep them out of the Superior court,
which to his mind is inferior to his.
In big black letters at the top of to-
days issue of the paper Editor Gold has
this THE Mayors Court is our Caesars
Private Property" The fuss between the
editor and the Mayor is the talk of the
city.

DIsGRAcEFUL OCCURRENCE.
A Fight in Front of the Academy of Music Last
Night

Last night after the performance of the
"Convict's Daughter at the Academy of
Music there was a most disgraceful Oc-
currence.
While the crowd was making its exit
from the hall down the steps some young
men gave a push in their hurry to get
out and it is said that a lady was thrown
down on the sidewalk. This occurrence
excited the indignation of a gentleman
who was showed by the persons who
started the push and he had a fisticuff
with several on the walk. This brought
on more trouble and several made an at
tack on him, in which he was struck a
number of times.
No arrests were made last night owing
to preparations for further investiga-
ton, which will be made this morning,
when it is expected several arrests will
be made A complaint was filed last night
with the police by Mr.. Dorset, who con-
ducts grocery store on Wilmington
street.
Several versions of the occurrence were
given last night Some say that the lady
was not knocked down on the walk but
was pushed against the entrance door,
where she remained until the crowd got
out, while others say she was knocked
completely down on the walk.

GREATEST ENEMY
TO CITIZENSHIP
Good Crowd at Anti-SaIoon
Mass Meeting,
THREE GREAT SPEECHES
DR.. A. H. Moment, Rev. G. T. Adams and Mr..
N, B. Brough!on Declare for Dispen-
sarY Against Twenty hree
Saloons,

The second of the series of mass meet
ings of citizens of Raleigh in favor of the
establishment of a city dispensary was
hello last night in the Monumental theatre.
Strong, stirring, practical addresses were
made by Rev. Alfred H. Moment, tenn
porary pastor of the First Presbyterian
church; Rev. G. T. Adams, pastor of the
Central Methodist church, and Mr.. N. B.
the Monumental theatre. 1t was a rep
rescntative and an enthusiastic one. Many
of Raleigh's best ladies were out for the
cause.
Mr.. w. n. Jones presided, and asked
Or. Adams to lead In prayer.
After announcing some coming meetings,
Mr.. Jones introduced DR.. Moment, who
was received with applause.
DR.. Moment began by saying that ever
since 1926 there had been IN some part
OF our country an anti-saloon movement
The first was the old Westinghouse
Temperance Society, and always the
r,ovement had been a righteous one, Tor
the saloon, by whatever name it has been
called has been a unmitigated evil, and
had always been an corrupting
influence in politics. The in
fluence of the saloon is the darkest stain
and the blacklist spot on American poll
tics. To elevate our politics we must
get rid of its most corruptlng influence.
Not only has the saloon been in poll
tics all these years, but it has been in
commerce also. Without character, with
out capital, without brains, man may
grow wealthy selling rum. He can make
more with less of skill and intelligence
than the thief. With the smallest amount
of capital and personal resource the sa-
Icon man can show the greatest proper
ton of wealth.
He called attention to the fact that
5000. OOO, 900 was invested in the business
of brewing alone in this country.
Speaking of the money made from the
liquor traffic, DR.. Moment said that it
seemed all through the ages that the
curse of God had rested on the wealth
obtained from liquor. Seldom did this
ever descend as far as the second gener
alton. ITO make money!" he declared,
lis God-given faculty.
Then the saloon was in labor too, and
not only in politics and commerce. 1.-THE
saloon is entrenched,' he said, with the
greatest evil of our labor" Mr.. Powdery
had declared that the saloon, the drink
habit of the laboring men, was n greater
enemy to labor than capital. DIR. Moment
dwelt strongly on this phase OF the sub
ject, showing by statistics how the sa-
loon in the course of few years got all
the earnings of the laboring men.
Physicians of note had declared tina.
half the ills of the American people came
from the wine-cup. Statesmen had de-
clarcd that not all the ravages of war
and plague destroyed as many of the men
of tho land as the winc-cup. IT'S the
business of the saloon to take this wine
cup and hold it to mems lips. It's the
business of the saloon to enter politics,
commerce, bedeck itself, do anything in

The Convict's Daughter.

'The Convict's Daughters the attrac-
ton at the Academy of Music last night
Pleased the audience, which gave liberal
applause at various points in the melo-
drama which was cleverly presented
The characters were very evenly bal
anced and there was an absence of rant
ing. The plot hinged about the doings of
Weary Willie, Robert Graham, William
Woodford,' the three names borne by Mr..
Wallace Hopper whose work was effective.
The stage setting for the 'Old Kentucky
Home" was beautiful and the escape OF
Woodford from the prison by leaping upon
box car of a fast freight from the pris-
on walls was realistic.
Levin's orchestra came in for much ap-
plause that was deserved. The music
was excellent.

ART OF REST.
Nay Be Acquired aid Used With Great
Benefit.

Benefit.
Complete and restful pOlee of the body
and mind is an art not easily gained.
Perhaps nothing brings one as much
content. comfort, happiness and pleasure
as those conditions of easy, restful, re-
sourceful and well balanced mind and
body. that make of work a pleasure and
tie laily life happy and peaceful.
The nervous housewife busy with
hundred duties and harrassed by child
rem; the business man, worried with the
,ress of daily affairs, debts, ETC., cannot
enjoy the peace and resttul rerose and
healthful nervous balance unless they
know how.
There is way. First and foremost ire
stomach must be consulted. That means
leavl1i; off coffee absolutely, Tor the
temporary stimulant and the resulting
depression is a sure ruin to the nervous
system, and the whole condition OF health
and happiness rests upon stomach, nerves
ard mind.
Start with the stomach, that is the
keystone to the whole arch. Stop using
things that break down its power, upset
its nervous energy and prevent the prop
err digestion of the food and the conse-
nerves brain and tissues.
When you quit coffee take On Postum
Food Coffee. That is like stopping the
payment of interest and starting on a
career where you are loaning money and
receiving interest The good results are
double. You stop poisoning the system
with coffee and start building up the
broken down nerve cells by powerful ele-
ments contained in Postum. These are
pure food elements ably selected by ex-
perts for the purpose of supplying just
the thing required by Nature to perform
this rebuilding.
These ara solid substantial facts and
can be proven clearly to the satisfaction
of any one, by personal experience. Try
the change yourself and note how the
old condition of shattered nerves and
worried mind changes to that feeling of
restful poise of well balanced nervou
system
The managing physician of hygienic
sanitarium in Indiana says that for five
years in his practice he has always in
sisted upon the patients leaving off coffee
and taking Postum Food Coffee with the
most positive. well defined results and
with satisfaction to the most confirmed
coffee topper.
The Doctors name will be furnished
by the Postum Co, Ltd, Battle Creek,
Mich.

temptation the saloons feel to contribute
TO the public debt, or In other words

order, for the saloon has a tendency to
break laws unless they are of their own
making: fourth, it discourages the treat

would be no more in the liquor business
