THE RALEIGH SPIRIT.


We commend to the Democrats in
every town the example of Raleigh
in municipal affairs. This city has
had on hand a hot contest for every
office in the city. Strong candidates,
holding widely divergent views upon
important matters, contested for the
nomination in the Democratic prima-
ries 1t was a stiff and hard fight in
which no quarter was given or asked.
1t was fight to the finish, but when
the people spoke the candidates all
respected their will. Today every
candidate, successful and unsuccess-
full, is supporting the Democratic
ticket, and there is not a particle of
opposition to it's election.
That's the Raleigh spirit--the only
spirit that preserves party success
and good government in North Caro-
lima. The secret ballot guaranteed a
fair election free from pulling and
hauling of voters, and makes the gen.
eral acquescence in the result all
the more easy and graceful.
Fight it out in the Democratic pri-
maries, and then abide by the will of
the majority. That is the only rule
that is safe in North Carolina.

HE MEANS SCOTS

Your doctor says you must
take cod liver oil. Probably he
means SCOTS Emulsion be-
cause you cannot take the
clear oil; no one can take the
clear oil who needs cod liver
oil. The doctor understands
that and doubtless means
SCOTS Emulsion of cod liver
oil which everybody can take
because it is emulsifed and
prepared SO that it can be
very easily digested by the
most sensitive stomach. Most
everybody likes it.
Well send you sample free.

Spirit of the Press
Money Given for the Purpose of Pad
locking the Mouths of Ministers.

Rev. John w. Stage, ID.
When you get to the bottom of it,
this contribution of 100000 to the
American board of foreign missions is
made for the purpose of padlocking
the mouths of the Congregational
ministers throughout the country.
The question in the last analysis is
not whether the money given to the
Christian church is clean or unclean.
l hold that it is perfectly proper for
the church of Christ to accept So
called 'unclean' money when the
money is given in the proper spirit
and for the proper purposes.
Every Sunday this so-called 'un-
clean money is dropped into collec-
tion boxes in almost every church
throughout the country; but it is
given with the view not of perpetual
ing, but of atoning for sins commit
ted by the giVer; it is given in a spirit
of penitence.
In the course of my ministry l
have accepted, in the effort to build q
church, money from women who had
lived lives of sinfulness, but who made
their offerings in truly contrite
spirit. l believe that these women
soul-soiled though they may have
been at one time. were washed white
as snow and became through their
repentance, inheritors of the kingdom
of God.
There is no analogy between accept
ing gifts made by the penitent sinner
and the accepting gifts offered by the
impenitent sinner.
The Rockefeller Rogers people eX-
press no regret, evince no remorse, re-
garding their conduct. They evince
no remorsc and express no regret for
the reason that they feel none. They
feel none for the Jason that their
consciences have been so scared that
they are insensible to appeals of right
and righteousness.
They literally glory in the system
that they have built up and are oper-
ating.
The purpose of their gift is to win
to their side-to get the sympathy and
support of-persons, who by reason of
their social, political and moral in
fluence, may, when opposed to the
system" expose, condemn and
thwart its nefarious schemes.
Such men must be sileneed, say the
Rockefeller people; they must be
gagged with gold.

Wanted; A General Cleaning Up.
Lenoir Topic.

Lenoir Topic.
The whiskey business is so rotten
from first to last that it seems that
any man who touches it becomes de-
filed. i has certainly been, in this
State, a condition of affairs that are
disgraceful beyond expression. The
State officers do not seem to have
learned their duty, and the Federal
officers either do not care or are too
much interested in politics to heed.
We trust that a general cleaning up
time is not far off, but when it comes
in order to do half it's work it will
have to begin higher in the scale
than the mere occasional raiding of a
blockade distillery

Opposed to Seeing Gentcel Criminals
Go Free.
HendersonyilIe Hustler.

Crime is crime it matters not who
commits it and the respectable law
breaker, let him be as rich as the
richest, should be dealt with upon the
same terms as any other criminal.
The time is now at hand when JUS
tice demands that the rich and great,
viewed as such from a human stand
point have justice meted out to them
in the courts just the same as those
who are ignorant, poor and I'M
learned. We are glad that we have
judges upon the bench who view the
matter in this light and we are glad
also that nearly every newspaper in
North Carolina is opposed to seeing
genteel criminals go free while the
less responsible are punished.

OAIUI
Surely Judge Boyd did his duty
when he sentenced the prominent,
popular mOneyed distillers to impris-
onment for violations of law, instead
of permitting them to pay fine. If
more of the violators of our prohibi-
tory laws were put at hard labor
rather than released upon payment of
money penalty, violations would be
less frequent. We are glad to see
that the tendency is toward the en-
forcement of punishment which Will
