WOMAN'S LOVE.
What Stronger or More Constant
and Abiding Thing is There On
Earth?

It is not known Just when Bishop
will be taken to the penitentiary.
The presence OF Mrs Bishop at the
Jail and her grief, excite much sym
patty. Her courage and her faith
fulness are very Observation-Disclosures

That is always the way OF it. When
Il woman takes Il notion to love a
man, no matter how unworthy that
man may be, she will love him and
stand by him. A man may mistreat
a woman, may neglect her, may
prove false to every VOW he called
upon men and Heaven to witness,
he may be IL libertine and leave her
he has sworn to love to live with
harlOts, and yet when trouble comes
upon him, earth has no emblem OF
devOtedness like hers. The little
pale-faced woman who voluntarily
shares II prisoners cell with Arthur
Bishop. II man unworthy to bea hus-
band, would gladly take his place
in the penitentiary and let him go
every woman who loves Il man.
When woman does not love, when
once estranged, II man may prove
himself an angel and she will spurn
him to follow the man she does love,
though lie may be fiend incarnate,
to the very gates OF hell and beg to
share his misery with him.-MOnrOe
And but for this love and fidelity
of the woman who loves, let it be
mother, wife or sister, a majority of
the men would go to the devil at
Lightning express speed. Woman s
love and devotion and prayers have
not only saved, but reclaimed thous-
ands, and is doing it daily. 1t is not

TAXING COTTON FACTORIES,


Raleigh Times.
There is no reason why the cotton
mills of North Carolina should be
required to pay thripple franchise
tax. The great industrial develop
ment OF this State began with the
establishment OF cotton mills. The
success OF this enterprise paved the
way for other industries and awoke
the Old North State to realization
of her possibilities as a manufactur.
ing center.
These cotton factories, the har-
bingers and pioneers of a bright
future, were not created and estab-
lished by Northern capital. The rich
men OF the North did not recognize
the possibilities of the South and
rush here with their money and build
these industries. On the other hand
what we have accomplished in indus
trial developments is due solely to
our own people. Capital never flowed
to any section until that place did
something for itself so in the in
auguratiOn of these industries the

their section and it's future and faith
in the business sense of its own peO-
pie, built the factories with their own
money. For the most part these
factories were built with the hard
earned money of people in very mod
crate circumstances. men and women
who really sacrificed and denied them
selves to plant manufactures in their
midst which would give employment
to men, women and children.
There can be no Just reason why
these cotton factories should be sub.
!ected to higher taxation than other
property. SO far as the franchise
tax is concerned, we are sure that the
mills are willing to pay a reasonable
franchise tax to the State, but where
can be the justification for compelling
them to pay a like amount to the
counties and towns? We trust that
the Legislature will not impose more
than moderate State franchise tax
on cotton mills

THE LAST SLAYER CAPTURED.
Taken By q Southern Naval officer In
I86i-lt Was Owned. Manned and
Equipped In Boston.

Correspondence Baltimore Sun.
MEssRs. EDIToRs:-While the negro
question is being agitated and the
Southern people are having forced
upon them Objectionable Federal
office holders, it might be we'll to call
attention to the true inwardness OF
the African slave trade.
My father, Capt. John Julius Guth-
RE, then OF the United States Navy,
while executive officer Of the sloop Of
war Saratoga on April 81, 1861,
captured at the mouth OF the Congo
river, on the West coast Of Africa,
the slave ship Nightingale, with 900
slaves on board. This SLAYER was
owned, manned and equipped in the
city OF Boston, Mass, and by refer
ence to dates it will appear that her
capture was after the assault upon
Fort Sumpter and the Baltimore riot
consequent upon the passage OF the
9Th Massachusetts, regiment through
the city. This was the last SLAYER
captured by an American warship,
and as my father soon after resigned
and entered the Confederate service,
her captain and owners were never
brought to Justice. All this is mat
| ter of record on file at the Navy De-
partment in Washington.
! Thus it will be seen the last cap
ture of a SLAYER was made by a
| Southern officer, and the goodpeople
of Massachusetts were engaged in
this nefarious trade at the beginning
OF our unhappy war.

The Plague of Typhoid Fever.

Col. Odds i'll his Raleigh correspond
ence OF the Charlotte Observer, saws:
in speech few days ago before
the committees on health, the secre-
tary of the State Board of Health,
said there were year before last about
1,6Oo deaths i'll North Carolina from
typhoid fever, and that as the pro-
portion OF deaths is about one in ten.
this shows that about 10000 per
sons had this disease, due to water
contamination and preventible. The
frlghtful cost of this in the aggregate
must arrest attention. Suppose there
were that many cases OF yellow fever
or cholera or the plague: the people
would talk of little else. and vet there
are people who treat this horrible
disease with about as little concern
as II it were measles The figures,
however, tell the story

Let Us Look to Ourselves.

Charity and Children.
eve North Carolinians have talked
much about the Tillman case in South
Carolina and have been indignant
because we realized that Tillman
would escape. We are Pharisees and
hypocrites. We are no better than
South Carolina in this respect and We
know it. Any man of prominence or
influence or one who can command
the help of prominent or influential
friends, can commit murder in this
State with almost every assurance
that his punishment at most will be
but a few years in the State prison.
Cases to prove this are becoming SO
common as to excite little comment.
Every citizen, no matter how inno-
cent or unoffending, is in danger OF
meeting his death at the hands OF
any man who has no regard for hui
man life The law has ceased to
make life secure because it is not en-
forced-it is not a terror to those
who have a disposition to shed hui
man blood" -Statesville Landmark.
The above straight and candid
statement of very alarming situa-
ton from one of the bravest and
best newspapers in North Carolina
ought to bepondered deeply by every
man in the State. We have reached
the point in North Carolina when
a halt must be called or human life
will become as cheap as that OF a
rabbit. If prominent and wealthy
men may shoot their fellows, the
brutal and the degraded will follow
suit, and we shall have a scourge OF
crime that will blast the fair name of
our State 1t is high time that
the 'moral forces" should cry aloud
and spare not. If men in high places
stain their hands in blood what can
be expected of the vicious and I'M
tutored? And as the Landmark
says, we will do we'll not to point the
finger of scorn at others until we have
first freed ourselves from the sin we
condemn. Every man who loves
God and his country ought to
set himself against this reign OF ter
rOr.

Increased Activity shown in Many
Branches-Fewer Complaints
Regarding Collections.

New York, Sept. 14.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says:
Despite the interruption of a holiday
the week has brought increased activity
in many branches of business. An en-
couraging symptom is the decreased
complaint regarding collections, accom-
panied by more discounting Of bills.
Weather conditions have been favorable
for retail trade, distribution of mer-
chandise expanding, while there are fire.
quent reports of larger jobbing fall busi-
ness than last year. Some caution in
selecting goods owing to high prices is
reported at the west, but this is chiefly
confined to textiles Labor disputes de-
crease, all but one Of the unions having
signed the agreement In the local build
ing trades, and several other settlements
have been effected through concessions
by both Sides Railway earnings in Au-
gust were 81 per cent. larger than last
year and 1874 per cent. greater than in
1901. Owing to the lateness Of the crops
there is little complaint of traffic con-
gestion.
Failures this week were 172 in the
United States, against 205 last year, and
10 in Canada, compared with 20 a year
ago."

sentiment is also deeply exercised in

said that Mr.. Balfour will see King Ed

and the interview may result in some

It is announced that by the middle Of

The chief whip of one of the political

less notable activity. The lumber mar

material of all kinds is active and firm,
but at the east the resumption of build
