WORK WILL BE PUSHED.

The Governor is in earnest about
seeing that all the INDECENT insane of
the State are cared for without de-
lay. Yesterday he had a conference
with DR.. Mckee about. the possibility
Of pushing the completion of the ad-
1ition to the Raleigh Hospital. AS
d result, work will pressed so as to
finish the building at an early date,
when the Governor will find a way to
furnish it and see that it is opened
for the reception of patients. 1t will
give room for over 125 patients, and
when completed it will be possible
to care for every INDECENT insane per-
son in the District in the early Spring
of 1906. But the Governor will not
wait for that addition to see that all
the patients in jails and county homes
are cared for. That should be and
can be done before the first day of
January if the authorities faithfully
carry out the provisions of the law.

The people of the whole State will
be surprised to learn that the former
cashier and teller of the Bank of
Fayetteville, who used about $4,000
of the money of the bank, have been
permitted to plead guilty. with no
sentence except Judgment suspended
upon payment of COSTS" The bond
companies had paid the amounts for
which they were liable and to that
extent the bank was reimbursed.
While there will be rejoicing among
the friends and acquaintances of those

can be met by suspension of Judgment

COTTON GOING UP.

Mr.. Harvie Jordan and his aSSo-
ciates of the Southern Cotton Grow
ers' Associations have cause to feel
happy today. The ginners reports
stirred the cotton exchange yesterday
and cotton went soaring up from 80
to los points. If the views and re-
ports of the Cotton Associations con-

Of cotton is not equal to the demand
why should not thig crop average the
farmers twelve and a half cents a
pound? uses 5t ~ .a 5
In the .ong run. cotton that pays
the farmer a good profit helps every
industry and interest in the South,
including the cotton mills. The South
is prosperous when cotton is nigh;
it is the opposite when cotton is low.
The better industrial conditions of
the South today are primarily due
to good prices for cotton during the
past three years.
The best thing about good prices
for cotton is that it keeps bright and
capable young men on the farm
where fine citizenship is developed.
When cotton brought five and six
cents. young men hurried from the
farm to towns and cities. This exodus
has largely ceased since cotton reach
ed ten cents. Given ten cents for cot
ton when there is a large crop and
twelve cents when the crop is short,
and the sons of Southern farmers
will stay on the farm in preference
to any other life.

Roosevelt to Railroad Men.


Wall Street Journal.
President Roosevelt ar made it very
clear to the representatives of the va
rious brotherhoods of railway en-
ployes who called upon him what his
position is in regard to the railroad
problem The importance of his state
ment lies in. the fact that he admits
that he would like to have the super
visory power of the government over
the railways exercised to a greater eX-
tent than he has any idea of pressing
at the moment For instance, he would
like to have it exercised in the mat
ter of overcapitalization.
In saying this, the President has
put his finger upon another sensitive
nerve in the railroad situation. If he
should decide to- bring this question
of overca apitaization prominently to
the front in the battle over railway
rate regulation. the railroad men who
are imprudently opposing the Presi-
dents policy of moderate government
control. over rates might find them
selves in a much worse plight than
they imagine that they would be in
if the rate regulation proposition went
through. -
If the President could make it ap-
pear that the effort to pay dividends
upon overcapitaiization resulted in un-
necessary burdens upon shippers, and
determinations between shippers, as
we'll as in lower level of wages for
. employees. the demand for government
control would be much stronger ever:
than it is now. 1t would seem to be
a mistaken policy on the part of the
railroads to oppose the increase i'm the
powers of the Interstate Commerce
Commission which the President advo-
Gates, for if their opposition should
defeat that measure, their success
would inevitably lead to sterner and
more radical anti-railroad agitation.

Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation

Women suffering from any form of
female weakness are invited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are received,
opened, read and answered by women
only. A woman can freely talk of her
private illness to a woman: thus has
been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women
of America which has never been
broken. Out of the vast volume of
experience which she has to draw from
it is more than possible that she has
gained the very knowledge that will
help your case. She asks nothing in
return except your goodwill, and her
advice has relieved thousands Surely
any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish
if she does not take advantage of this
generous offer of assistance.
If you are i'll, don't hesitate to get a
bottle of Lydia Z. Pinkham' 'sVeget able
Compound at once, and write Mrs. Pink
ham, Lynn. Mass, for special advice.
