ENLARGE THE THYME PLANT.
State Hopes With $4,000 to Double
the Capacity.

Plans are being made for the enlarge
ment of the binding Irvine plant at the
penitentiary. This plant has a capacity
of about 100000 pounds a year, and if
it had the necessary facilities, it would
have no difficulty in disposing of twice
this amount of Irvine.
The last legislature set aside S25. 600
for the purpose OF enlarging the plant.
and the officials believe that with this
sum it will be possible to almost double
the size of the plant.

DEVELOPMENT co. OF AMERICA
It May Commence Operations on Tim
 Der Tract In Chihuahua
(Chihuahua Enterprise.l ]

Chihuahua Enterprise)
 The Development Company of Amer | lea. of which Frank Nj. Murphy, the great mining and railroad man of Art- zona is president, may commence op- erations on it's great timber tract of half million or more acres in the Sierra -Madres of this state within a year. This is what H. l.. Garretson, manager of the lands, said in Fl Paso few days ago. The commencement of such operations is dependent upon the progress of the extension by Col. "a Madre & Pacific railroad from Nuevas Casas Grandes.
 Mir. Garretson says his company has wonderful tract of timber and he looks for development work to begin within a year. Tn the meantime he is policing it and erecting headquar- ters building for himself and force of Mormon rangers, who have to watch it for fires and to protect it in a meas ure from cattle grazers. However, large number of cattle are allowed 10 gTaze on the land, in return for services from the Mormons in the mat ter of fighting fires, which occur not infreouently.
 Regarding the development of the timber tract F. Nj. Murphy, nresident of the company, sand the other day ! that he hoped to see the Sierra Madre road extended close enough to handle the timber, but if this was not done, his company was prepared 10 build road of its own when it got ready to cu5 the trees. The company is rot ready. as it has a big forest under taking on hand in the red wood coun- try of California, and Is also busy up in Michigan for the time being. If i the company builds road, it will be constructed south from Douglas.

THE GUARDIAN OF OUR BODY.

The foremost biologist of our day,
NJ Metschnikoff, has shown the world
of science that there are leucocytes IN our
blood that act as scavengers or policemen.
These policemen which are called PhG9o-
cVkes look out for the noXious or poisonous
clements in our blood. Various offending
elements are picked ont of the blood and
tissues by these policemen and destroyed.
Therefore our lives are protected by
these blood-Cell- policemen the PhGgocj1eS,
and we enjoy immunity from disease so
long as our blood contains plenty of phago-
cvtes and red blood corpuscles.
IA new broom sweeps clean and in
order to put our own house i'll order we
must get rid of all the poisons i'll the blood
with a new broom such as an Alternative
extract made from roots and herbs--w1th-
out the use of alcohol, as DR.. PieTce's
Golden Medical Discovery, a specific for
making rich red blood-for eradicating the
poisons from the blood. In some way the
policemen in the blood are increased in
number and strength--so that we are put
in the best possible shape to resist disease
to cure neuralgia, colds, catarrh, and in
cipient consumption.
"The more study and time is given to the
subject the more we find that the blood is
the center of life Says DR.. K. v Pierce,
the noted specialist OF Buffalo, rthe health
and comfort of the average person depends
entirely on this blood supply-for the heart
must have pure blood or it will not pump
and keep the body supplied regularly like
the beautiful automatic engine 1t IS. The
nerves must be fed on pure blood-or we
suffer the pain of neuralgia, which is the
crv of the starved nerves for food Head
aches cold in the head, catarrh-and many
other things are due to stagnation of the
blood"
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are mild
laxative. No other medicine equals them
for gentleuess and thoroughness.

edith Livingston Smith,
This wish for you: that past rough
roads unheeded
You march ahead,
Undaunted with the hope of trust be-
gotten
To win life's bread;
To wear a smile cen when tears re
your portion,
With signs unsaid;
To find fair blooms from last year S
brown leaves springing,
Upon your way;
To reap the worth of deeds gone by
that left you
A bit more gray,
A bit more strong to live ana love
with others
From day TO day.
In fruitful fields may Time think wise
to give you
A gentle part;
With love of home and friends to
twine about you
May this year start
Blue skies to cheer, and peace of
God to guide you,
o faithful heart!

NO STEP BACKWARD.

The Ashevllle Citizen says that Rep
under consideration the matter of IN
Producing bill to change the law so
that in Buncombe eight per cent in
terest instead of six per cent. as the
law requires may be changed for the
loan of money. The Citizen says:
"Mr. Murphy said yesterday that he
was for the purpose of securing Sucn
popular feeling that he had announced
that he was considering the matter.
He wished he said to know the public
sentiment and be guided by it. Il
would be rather difficult step to Sc
cure the passage of such a law because
when at a former session such bill
was introduced, applicable only to
Buncombe county, representatives
from other counties defeated it be-
cause they said it would divert money
to this country from the other counties
where only six per cent was allowed.
A reference to files of The Citizen dur
ing the session of the legislature OF
1897 will show that this is correct.
Mr. Murphy said that he was In,
tiuenced by the belief that the right
to charge eight per cent. would cause
more money to come on the markee
to be lent and it would be easier for
~eople to negotiate loans"
When Mr.. Murphy hears from the
people he will decline to reopen a
question that has been wisely settled.
At the time of the passage of the law
many good men doubted its wisdom,
but it has been fully justified by events.
The banks have prospered as never
before. It's advocates predicted that
money would be more largely investe a
in manufacturing than previously and
their prediction has been fulfilled
Many lenders of money were not salts
fed with six per cent. and they put
their money into enterprises that have
given them large return, employed
much labor, and blessed the State.
The six per cent. interest law is all
right Do not touch it. Let us take
no step backward,

THE DOMINANCE OF GRAFT.

With the Senator from Kansas un-
der indictment for taking brides. the
Senator from Oregon indicted for
completely in land frauds, and the
Senator from Utah under investiga-
ton for violating the law against
plural marriages, the standing of the
Senate has received a distinct shock.
The Kansas Senator is clearly guilty,
there is no doubt about the guilt of
the Utah Senator, and the Oregon
Senator is believed by Republican Off
Gals to have feathered his nest along
with ex-Land Commissioners Ringer
Herman. If all the public officers
who have gotten rich through deals
with land agents appointed by them
Senator Mitchell would have plenty
of company. 1t has been prolific
source of graft many years before
that modern word for stealing came
into vogue.
The era of graft is upon us. 1t in
vades every department of govern
ment from the policeman, who is
conveniently blind to disreputahe
places, to United States Senator, who
shares in the theft of lands from the
public domain. Today, as always, the
great bulk of public officials are hon
est and trustworthy, free from graft
or corruption, but it cannot be denied
that too many poor men go into pol
ticS and soon pile up ample fortunes.
The late Senator Vest in a eulogy or
a former Senator once used All ex-
preston somewhat like this: He
was an honest man. He had never
learned how to save million dollars
in ten years out Of a salary of hvs
thousand dollars year..
The putting of some big rascas
who use public positions to get rich
in stripes and on the chain gangs
would be Il salutary lesson. Nothing
short of such condign punishment will
lessen the growing of graft.

NOW END THE WAR.

The prevailing sentiment in America

in the fort have shown courage ana
fortitude of the highest order. and

hope the war will speedily end. The

countries. Japan has borne it by dl-

The Wilcox Petition.

Wilmington Dispatch.
One of the first papers to come be-
fore Governor elect Glenn after his
snduction into office will be a petition
asking for the pardon of James Will
cox, convicted for the murder of Mel
lie Cropsey. Our readers are well ac-
quainted with the details of this case
and a repetition of the facts adduced
at the trial is not necessary. Suffice
il to say, that while the evidence was
circumstantial it was as strong Us such
evidence could possibly be. The jury
convicted him AS it should have done,
and the sentence of thirty years in the
penitentiary was considered by the un-
prejudicad as a light one.
We have the greatest confidence in
the honor and integrity of the Cover
nor-elect and know that he will con-
slider this petition carefully and act
With justice. The insnuation that Mr..
Glenn will be influenced in his decis-
ion on account of his friendship for
the Wilcox family is an insult TO that
gentleman. If the friends of James
Wilcox are basing their hopes on his
friendship their case is already lost.
This ease will be decided on its merits.
The people may trust Bob Glenn.

COTTON VS.. PEANUTS.

There are many sections of North
Carolina where the farmers can grow
equally well three or four money
crops, and yet many of them often
make the mistake of putting all their
dependence in a single crop. To show
how unwise is such course the fol-
lowing statement by an Edgecombe
farmer is taken from the Tarboro
Southerner:
Il had eighty-seVen acres in pea
nuts that will turn me out more mon
ey than my $50 acres in cotton, and
as much, if not more, if | could sell
cotton at ten cents. Besides the cost
of cultivation was much less. If the
excellent hay that / made be counted,
cotton at ten cents is outclassed.
And peanuts have taken drop
from last year, when they brought
from four to five cents. Now they are
ruling at three and a quarter to three
and a half cents. Even at this lower
price. this Edgecombe farmer could
make more money on eighty-seven
acres of peanuts than on one hundred
and fifty acres of cotton at ten cents
a pound.
Moral Do not depend on a single
crop. If farmers. who are reducing
cotton acreage. should put their de-
pendence in peanuts, they might find
big drop in prices of peanuts next
fall that would be as disastrous as the
drop in cotton. The only safety is to
diversity the money crops and raise
plenty of hog and hominy.
