The Four Oissenters.
Charlotte Observer.

Charlotte Observer
SO far rs has been observed but
four papers in the State have criti-
cised the appointment by Gov. Glenn
of his brother, Gen. j. ID. Glenn, as
his private secretary, these being, in
the order of their speaking. the States
vile Landmark, the Monroe En-
quirer, the Sanford Express and the
Raleigh Times. They are to he APP
plauded for the frank expression of
their dissenting opinion. 1t isa good,
a healthful Indication. 1t is an indi-
cation that men in North Carolina
are no longer afraid nor ashamed to
be in the minority nor afraid of being
arraigned ut the bar of public opin-
ion for lese majestic if they pass IL
criticism upon IL Democratic official
or a Democratic policy. To maim-
tain silence because the majority op-
pose them. to trail along with that
majority when they believe in their
hearts that it is wrong-these are
evidences of the absence of moral
courage or moral energy in inch and
tell OF their unworthineSs of the intel
lectual freedom to which they were
born. There is respect for maiori-
ties, which is praiseworthy; there is
an intellectual and moral subSer-
vlenc,y to them which is despicable.
Upon the case in point. the Observer
differs about as widely rs possible
from the contemporaries above re-
terrad to, hut it admirpS them for the
spirit that moves them to utter what
is in their hearts, Notwithstanding
that they stand alone among their
brethren and apparently against the
multitude.

More than likely you speak the same
words yourself, and no doubt you feel
far from we'll. The cause may be easily
traced to some arrangement of the fe-
male organs which manifests itself in
depression of spirits reluctance to go
anywhere or do anything backache,
bearing-down pains. f1atulency, nerv-
business, sleeplessness leucorrhoea.
These symptoms are but warnings
that there is danger ahead, and unless
needed life of suffering or a serious
operation is the inevitable result
The never-failing remedy for all these
symptoms is Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound.
Miss Kate Mcdonald, of Woodbridge,
n j., writes:
Dear Mrs Pinkham:
81 think that a woman naturally dislikes to
| make her troubles known to the public, but
| restored health has meant SO much to me that
| cannot help from telling mine for the sake
| of other suffering women.
"For long time suffered untold agony
| with uterine trouble and irregularities,
| Which made me a physical wreck. and no one
thought would recover, but Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has entirely
| cured me, and made me well and strCng, and
| I feel it my duty to tell other suffering women
| what a splendid medicine it is"
If you are i'll, don't hesitate to get a

BILE Compound at once. and write to

The Care of the Insane.

Charlotte Observer.
1t is agreed By the press Of the
State that the highest duty dnvolviI"
Ipon the General Assembly now i'll
session is the making OF provision Tor
the care OF the insane outside The
hospitals. Some OF these are in jaIls,
others in county homes. Others re-
main in their own homes, il care and
IL menace to their families. There are
Asses in which the commitment of an
insane person to II county home may
be Observation-Disclosures eases being hose
where the patient is inrurahlr and
luiet, and where the county home L.
comfortable and well kept and there
is provision for this class of inmates.
rhe justification even under these
circumstances is questionable, but
here can be 10 adequate excuse for
lasting IN insane person into com
non Jail or leaving him or her upon
he hands OF the family. There ar.
many instances OF this latter il:

Crime as a Disease.
From the st. Paul Globe.


On no question is the public more sharply
divided than on the one of whether theft
is not in many cases the result of disease
rather than of criminal instinct. Medical
science has recognized the fact that there
is something in the theory by coming the
word kleptomania to explain the acts of
theft that would otherwise be unexplain-
able. Nobody believes, of course, that
criminal, no matter what the nature of his
crime, is normal. But the point science
has not been able to decide yet is whether
the impulse to commit certain forms
of crime overtakes him. 1t is in
endeavoring to account for the alb
normal that the scantiness of mans
knowledge concerning himself is appreciat-
ed The Persian poets description, little
children cropping in the dark fits even this
age that boasts of its knowledge of man
kind. 1t is easy enough to understand why
a man born of criminal parents or reared
in criminal environment should commit
crime, but there is apparently nothing to
explain why nine-year-old boy, for in
stance born of respectable parents and pro-
vided with every comfort, should steal
whenever he has the opportunity. The
that all crime Is disease that Is durable.
it would be glad to place offenders of the
law in the charge of reputable and COM
petent physicians instead of in prison cells.
But the average man will have to know
more about therapeutics and physicians
will have to know more about man before
the former Is ready to hand over the Of
fender and the latter are ready to receive
him.
