The human race Is Il superstltious
people. 1t Is necessarily so from
The nature OF it's creation. Creation
Is a great mystery. and man is its mas
ter work. He is endowed with greater
reflection and reasoning faculties than
amy other creature that The Almighty
called into existence. and if God has
not so declared In definite terms He
has by implication, made him His
agent and custodian Of His seven days
work. He made him All indulsitivc
animal. which, with his endowment OF
reason. might enable him to look into
the great darkness of Gods pavilion"
and search out the great mystery Of
man.
We hold this truth TO be self-evi-
dcnt-that everything that takes place
has n cause, sometimes Immediate,
sometimes remote. I'm electric fash
from the clouds is the Immediate cause
Of y burst OF thunder. FromWcll'S
birth was II remote cause of the exc
cution of Charles | OF England.
When man named Adam, in the
dawn Of creation. found himself i'm "a
garden full Of birds. with animals and
flowers. perhaps nc wondered, rs he
rovcd about, who ana where am T..
whence ana wherefore came l here"
He saw the seasons come and go, and
with them the flowers and the fruits.
Perhaps he SAW this for Il thousand
years and he saw effects follow causes
with undertaking succession.
Year after year he saw on the same
day, February ,. n little animal about
as big rs n puppy dog, come out Of The
same hole, look around, sniff the air,
gaze at his shadow. and as he cast n
shadow iii the sun he went back into
the same hole. and if he cast no shad-
ow in the sun he lid not return TO his
hole. Adam, perhaps. observed that
when he cast no shadow and did not
return, the severe winter was over,
there would be a season Of six weeks
Of pleasant weather .
AS time wore on and the same Of
feet followed the Same cause. Adam
regarded il as q divine forecast, and
in later years when men have become
wiser in their own conccit, they have
named the little animsl-ground hog.
and his divine forecasts vulgar
superstition.

AS TO Divorce.

To the Editor: IT is published that
it is an open secret that the new cause
for divorce is for the personal benefit
of an individual
Is It not the business of the law
makers to legislate for the benefit of
the State? Will a single home be
more secure with this legislation? Is
there a single question of State at
stake in this suggestion? Has the
State the right to legislate to soothc
the feelings of the party in question
and thereby lower the standard of
every other woman in the State?
Have they no respect for the balance
OF the people. and don't the members
violate every obligation to their con-
stituents when they propose such dis
graceful legislation?
Why should the State be interested
in the whimS fancies and sentiments
of an individual?
Demand that the party in question
come forward and ask a Special act
of relief. If its n ground hog case,
don't worry yourself about feelings.
Feelings will always adjust 10 di-
yorcc. If you don't want Il special
act. appropriate enough money to
send the applicant TO Dakota

terested in her can get her when she

AS to Reports OF Tobacco Sales.

To the Editor: / understand bill
will be presented to the Legislature,
to my mind of vital Importance to the
tobacco raisers. It's what has been
needed for n long time. That is a
law requiring warehousemen TO re-
port. under. oath, 10 tho clerk OF court
of each county when tobacco is sold
in warehouses, ut the end OF each
month the number of pounds .of to-
bacco sold from first hands That Is
the raisers and none other, and in
stead Of this State showing under the
present system of reporting sales some
one hundred and seventy million
pounds. You can see exactly what is
actually raised or sold. | have con-
tended for a long time that these mis-
leading reports have had much TO do
with keeping the price of tobacco Mt a
low ebb. Look for q moment at
the warehouses here in Eastern North
Carolina that report having sold
more tobacco, almost double, than is
raised by the farmers of the entire
State l contend that every branch
connected with THIS great industry
are sufferers by this suicidal policy.
have no disposition to curtail or
hinder the festive oin hooker or leaf
dealer from selling the weed as many
times as he may choose. Sell and re-
sell, but don't let itceme into the court
but once. There would be no trouble
in arriving at this. for every ware
houscmah and employer knows when
tobacco is from first hands, and when
mot.
I remember Il pile Of tobacco over
OH my warehouse floor of 500 pounds,
sold four times privately. without be-
ing removed from where it was first
placed. and then sold at auction; that
tobacco w2s quoted IN that years sales
as 1000 pounds. You see, this same
trouble exists now, even to a greater
degree. Sold on our market, bought
and sent to an6ther--or maybe
bought by q Warchouselnan in his de-
sire to help his patron. Here it is
quoted in that days sale. put back on
the floor next day, perhaps, sold
and quoted again
The point l make is: The large
manufacturers and leaf purchasers
abroad see these mammoth figures,
and they act just like shrewd bust
ness men that they are. They put
their little heads together and make
prices easy.
Is there anything softer than this?

TWO CENT PASSENGER RATE.

The Senate committee gave severe
blow 10 the bill that passed the House
reducing passenger rates to and
= IL cents Respectively decrease oil
q quarter of q cent. But no Senator
answered the argument that the pro-
posed reduction was fair made by MI.
I.aughinghouse. Mr.. Murphy, of Bum
combc. Mr. Biggs, Judge Graham and
others i'll the House. In fact most of
the members of the committee de-,
clarcd their opposition to the bill was
due to their belief that this was
question that the Corporation Com
mission was created to settle and that
they had more time and better facil-
tiles for doing SO justly than the men,
bcrs of the General Assembly in d
sixty day session.
The matter is now ''up to- the Cor
poration Commission with the ex-
pressed conviction of an overwhelm-
ing majority of the popular branch
that the passenger rate ought to be
reduced. That is much to have been
gained by Mr. Iaughinghouse and the
other gentlemen who have pressed
this matter.
1t is not only in North Carolina
but i'm other States that the people
are demanding that they share in the
great growth in the, receipts of rail-
roads. The current isue Of The Com
mon Carrier, published at Atlanta, has
the following:
''Georgia's Railroad Commission
has not definitely agreed upon date
for taking up Chairman Brown s
proposition to reduce passenger fares
10 two cents per mile. but the Chair
man counts on getting it up before
hiS term expires, which Will be next
fall.
THE passenger men might just as
we'll be getting together their statistics
because the question is coming this
year"
THE question is coming in every
state where the people rule! The local
portions of the railroads who are
making their owners rich. arc entitled
to q reduction in freight and passen-
ger rates. The increase in Interstate
freight rates the last few years has
imposed a heavier burden upon the
people of North Carolina than all the
State and county tax. North Carolina
is impotent to remedy this. The
President and the House favor the
new law comforting the power on the
Corporation Commission TO give re-
lief. but the bill is hung up in the
United States Senate. But relief can
be had-and must be had-from the
North Carolina Corporation Commits
sion in intra-State rates. If VIC cam
not prevent excessive Interstate freight
charges. we have the power to re-
duco the intra-State charges to Il
proper figure.

Ashcyille, \. c.. Feb. 2S.--In an
effort to arrest several negroes

against his head pulled the trigger.
Fortunately his hand was struck up
by a bys;andcr. and the bullet only
grdzed the marshal's head. The other
negro then attacked the man VINO
