BUILDING AND ADMINISTRATIONS

The GOLD LEAF has endeavOred to
arouse interest among our people to
the value and Importance OF build
inc and loan association, but SO lar
without success. While this is true
we like to see what is being done in
other towns OF the State and have
pleasure in publishing such items as
the following Charlotte is one of the
best towns in the State. It's growth
and development along all lines OF
progress in recent years gives pride
to it's people and pleasure to out
siders. No town i'll the State has
gone forward more rapidly than
Charlotte. Here is what one of it's
home papers, the Chronicle, says as
to the causes contributing thereto:
No influence has done more to build
I'D Charlotte than her three building
and loan associations. The local
and home institutions of other cities
and towns have also done wonder
fully good work i'll furnishing the
means by which working people,
merchants, preachers, and others
may save something i'll regular in
stallments or buy a house and pay
for it in regular installment and not
pay any profit to anybody on the
transaction. Philadelphia, which is
the home of the building and loan
association in this country was
formerly the City of Bro therly Love
only. 1t is still SO, perhaps, but it is
now much more accurately the city
of workingmen's homes. The same
is to large extent now true OF Char
lOtte and in each case and other sim
liar cases the local home building as
sociatiOns have been almost wholly
the means by which this beneficent
result has been brought about.

praise to District Attorney HOltOn
for the manner of the prosecution of

term of the United States District

things, that this district is indeed
to be congratulated upon having a
man who, under the strongest kind
of political pressure, never for one
moment lost sight of his duty to the
government, and had in view only
one thing, and that was that the
truth, the whole truth, and nothing
but the truth, should be brought
out" But Mr. Bouldin continues:
The question naturally arises,
What more is there to be done?'

thing in the statements of prominent
men interested in these trials, the
public may look for startling dis
closures. Things that have been
done in Il corner are about to bepro-
claimed from the house tops.
Now, after sentence had been pro-
nounced, one of the MEN convicted, |
am told, stated that if he had had to
90 to the pen he would let the world
know that there were prominent men
implicated in these frauds
1T is also stated here that very
prominent government official, who

''The conviction of these men with
the penalties, which are generally
considered very light, considering
the fact that they were convicted of

This is startling and important,
and with the pointers furnished him,
District Attorney Holton will no
doubt proceed to probe to the bot

The Fifteenth Amendment.

Richmond Times Dispatch.
Now that the United States Su-
preme Court has dismissed John
Wise's suit to overturn the Virginia
Constitution, several of the Virginia
newspapers are saying that it is I'M
necessary to agitate the question OF
repeating the Fifteenth Amendment.
1t is not necessaryfor the South to
agitate that question, for the ques-
ton ofhegro suffrage has been solved
so far as the South is concerned. But
the question ought to be agitated in
the nation, and the Fifteenth Amend
ment ought by all means to be re-
pealed for the reason that it is now a
dead letter.
The Southern States have been
compelled to adopt evasive measures
in order to protect themselves from
the ignorant negro vote and the
Northern people recognize the neces-
sity and gave tacit assent to the
SOuth's course. But the brave thing
to do would be to repeal the Fiji
teenth Amendment and allow each
and every State to settle the suffrage
question according to it's own neces-
sites and peculiar conditions. 1t is
"a mistake to keep on the books any
law which is not enforced; still great
er is the mistake to retain IL clause
in the Constitution OF the nation
which by common consent has be-
come imperative.
The South can we'll afford to let
the matter rest as it is; but the na-
ton cannot afford it. 1t is always
better to have no law on a given
subject than to have the semblance
OF a law which is of no effect, for such
Il condition is demoralizing and
tends to bring the whole system OF
law into contempt.
