Would Get OFF Light With 100000
Years.
(Lumberton Argus

(LumbertOn Argus.)
The Reverent editor of the Argus
speaks as follows:
1t does seem a little strange, this
criticism of Mr. Daniels. of The News
and Observer, for saying that Bernard
deserved two million years in hell.
Only the blood of the Lamb keeps any
one of the best of us from an eternity
there. the presumption being that we
all deserve it and are saved only
through grace. If the sinner does not
deserve punishment in hell, then God
is unjust, when he declares that he
will cast men into the lake of fire. If
the best of us deserve ble penalty
and are saved only by grace. surely
there is no doubt that Bernard would
be getting off light with two million
years. But the vilest sinner may es-
cape. simply by accepting the prof
fered mercy; but if Bernard has ac-
cepted that mercy. his action fails to
demonstrate the fact. Let Mr.. Daniels
alone. He has his faults. but public
sentiment cannot be too strong
ly excited against such crimes
as those Dockery and Ber-
nard are guilty of. AS the
Statesvile Landmark aptly states. the
one is as guilty as the other. No ma
ture man can be other than a scoun-
drel if he wrecks the character OF
young girl. The girls may be blam-
able, and usually are, for they are not
idiots; but that does not lessen the
crime of the men, from a moral stand
point. One is held responsible for the
evil that he might prevent as much
so as for that he commits. Conse-
quently the men are responsible fol
the ruin of young lives, the blightine
of several homes. and an untold series
of disasters to follow. Virtue is exact
ing.

Wanted His Grandmother.
Iwashington Gazette.)


Et One of %tfleE richest jokes that has
been travelling around the city this
morning is one on DR.. John Tayloe
one of Washington's prominent medi-
cal people. 1t is too good to keep,
and by the way it is an absolute fact
also.
DR.. Josh a few weeks ago made a
flying trip, and all went we'll with the
doctor until just before reaching Day
ton, o., when he was approached ny
a bucolc looking stranger in the
smoking car. The stranger had a roll
of bills in his hands and asked the
genial doctor if he thought it safe to
mail so much in a letter on the car.
The doctor said he thought it would
be unwise as the bills were of small
denomination
The stranger, growing confidential,
said that his grandmother in the next
car had given him $50 to send to his
mother. He then asked Dr. Josh if
he had any larger notes. The doctor
replied that he had, and dived down
in his pants pockets and pulled out
his roll and stripped two twenties and
a ten off, which he gave the stranger,
The doctor then proceeded to count
the money he had exchanged and in
formed his quondam acquaintance
that the change only amounted to
$4i, DelIlS % shy, ana nduueu II pack
to the stranger to count.
Sure enough there was only SAT.
The confidence man asked the doctor
to excuse him for a moment as he
would go in the next car and inform
his grandmother that she had only
given him SAT instead of $50. Before
going. however, he placed the notes in
an envelope and handed it over to
Josh.
The doctor, thinking he would he
back in a moment, did not count the
money over again. Just as the train
was slowing up for Dayton, the doctor

THE CORN LIQUOR "SHORT'-AN
ESSAY.

The Richmond Times-Dispatch has
law to prevent the selling of impure
whiskey. In reply to criticism and
distrust expressed at a former article
i'm which the charge was made that
much of the whiskey sold was mot
only impure but poisonous, both to
body and mind" the Times-Dispatch
re-asserts it's position and cites as IN
argument the fact that much whiskey
is sold at five cents a drink, where
from ii argues that such remunera-
ton is not sufficient even to give to
the seller a profit on the government
tax of $1.10 the gallon, much less
the cost of the whiskey itself.
In a matter in which we speak
merely the lay mind and the provin-
cial experience. without thought of
expert testimony. it seems to us that
we must differ with our contemporary,
not as to its basic contention but as
to its argument in supporting it. Ac-
cording to our investigation there arc
four drinks to the half pint, eight to
the pint. sixteen to the quart and
sixty-four to the gallon. Therefore.
deducting the government tax of
S1.1O we have a gross income of
$2.10 to the gallon out of which the
margin of profit must come. If the
article dealt i'm at soda fountain rates
i'm Richmond be the original North
Carolina corn now made for the
most part over the line in cole Vir-
giny." the retailer can purchase his
goods at. say, S1.25 a gallon, which
would leave him net profit, less ex-
pcnses. of IS cents per gallon, this OF
course subject to change through the
judicious use of water and the occa-
sional small drink"
1t must be understood that this
dissent is not remotely aimed at the
campaign for pure whiskey. When
ever it is used it ought to be pure.
We are merely defending the short
which we esteem a moral as well rs
an economical invention. Common
wealths of course differ in their
habits of drink as we'll as of other
things. Virginia may drink so large
w at draft as to upset our mathe-
matics We have ourselves heard Of
enthusiastic citizens who supple
mented the capacity of their glass by
topping it with two fingers formed
into extemporaneous drinking cups.
But the argument we take it. is bad.
Water never poisoned whiskey. how
ever much it may have spoiled IT'S
aroma for a Kentuckian-or VIZ
ginian. The bar keepers are not re-
duced to that necessity. Nor are the
distillers If the Dispatch had
been reading the News and Observer
if il would have noted how hundred
thousand dollars profit is easily COM

ten per cent. on the steal, and seen the
possibility of pure whiskey, even III

when the gamblers find out what the
Argus is doing, they will all go
home But is it possible that the Ar
gus has just found out that there is
this evil in New Mexico that the wo-
men should work against? Now as
to the women of Roswell being in
better business than banding togeth-
er against what the Argus has just
found cut to be such a great evll-he
says greater than Mormonism-l
which say we admit. But some day
the Argus may see too that Mormon
ism is also getting to be a dangerous
growing evil. Notwithstanding, ] wish
to thank the Argus for (where we
can see no good ~intended) its public
acknowledgment, for 1 can safely
that all that has KEEP thousands
of names from going to our legisla-
tors from the women of New Mexico
