MORNING TONIC.
Henry Van DYke.l

Last summer l saw two streams
emptying into the sea. One was a
slugg .sh, niggardly rivulet in a wide,
fat bed, and every day the tide came
in and drowned out that poor little
stream and filled it with bitter brine.
The other was a vigorous, joyful,
trimming mountain river, fed from
unfailing springs among the hills and
all the time it swept the salt water
back before it and kept itself pure
and sweet and when the tide came
in, it only maze the fresh water rise
higher and gather new strength by
the delay; and ever the living stream
poured forth into the ocean its trib-
ute of living water-the symbol OF
that influence which keeps the Ocean
of Life from turning into a Dead Sea
of WickednesS.
My brother men, Will you take that
living stream as a type of your life In
this world. The question for you is
not what you are going to get out of
the world, but what you are going
to give to the world. The only way
to meet and overcome the infiowing
tide of evil is to roll against it the
outfioWing river of good.
My prayer for you is that you may
receive not only the watchword OF
this nobler life, but also the power
to fulfill it.

A BOYCOTT ORDERED.

Almost every week since Wall Street
spectators put Morton in as presi-
dent of the Equitable there has been
some fresh piece of news to confirm
the suspicion that his rebate practice
was his greatest recommendation. He
looks at finance and railroading
through the same spectacles that j.
Pierpont Morgan, Ryan, Hartman.
and then other railroad and bank mag
mates employ. Their interest in insur-
ance IS merely to use the companies
as purchasers of their securities. They
will stop peculation and continue spec
ulation.
The best evidence of Mr. Morton
unfitness for the place given him by
Ryan is recent letter written by him
to the Manufacturers Record that the
Equitable will not do any advertising
with the press of the country until the
newspapers have. quit "flling their col
umns with articles about the evils of
Insurance." In other words Mr.. Nor
ton offers to pay the editors by adver-
Using with them if they will quit print
ing the ''evils of Insurance.
But Mr. Morton: You can't buy the
editors with money or the threat of
boycott!

farm lands can speak only for my
own neighborhood During the pres
ent year lands in our section have adj
vanced materially in value. In some
instances the appreciation has been
100 per cent or more, but generally,
perhaps, SO per cent, location having
much to do with fixing price. For
the last five years farm lands IN this
vicinity have increased in value four
fold and more. This is the result OF
the thrift and energy of the resident
population, we having had no ingress
of settlers in our midst from other
sections. We have labor enough If
it were reliable. Am sorry to state
it is not so now. and is growing less
so every year If we had good
system of farm labor farm lands
would double in value within two
years if cotton should continue to sell
at existing prices and the tobacco
trust would be satisfied with a legiti-
mate business

is HE TAXED IN DURHAM?

The nauseous divorce suit. by which
the tobacco trust magnate is seeking
to be rid of the woman he married
some time ago, brought out some evil
dence that may help to build good
roads in the city and macadamize
roads in the county of Durham. From
the testimony of Mr.. James B. Duke
it came out that he was worth more
than ten million dollars. From the
testimony this extract is taken:
when were you assessed in
New York; was the next queS-
ton.
II cannot say. I would have to
guess" said the witness. Il was
assessed. but did not pay taxes,
because I considered myself res
ident of North Carolina.
Is Mr.. Duke taxed in Durham? If
not, the authorities of that progressive
city will rejoice to consider him "a
resident of North Carolina" as he says
he considers himself. and as a resident
extend to him all the rights and priv
ileges and duties that go with North
Carolina citizenship. An increase of
assessment of so much of Mr.. Dukes
property as is not real would add
largely to the income of the county
and city, and the sum to the State for
education and care of the insane and
dependent classes would help. Mr..
Dukes great success has given pride
to all his North Carolina friends
That pride will be increased if he
elects to consider himself a citizen OF
North Carolina. We will be glad to
see Buck come down and stand in
line to vote, to serve on Jurles,
jolly the tax collector, and to share
in the expenses incident to citizenship.

quaintance with Judge Ward, of our
Superior court and have never seen
him; but from the reports we see of
his conduct on the bench we have
concluded that he is one of our very
best judges and that we need more
like him. He certainly is terror to
pistol toters," gamblers and those
Engaged in the illicit sale of whiskey,
crimes that 50 often go unpublished in
our State Cases have been known
where men would conceal pistol in
their pocket, go on the principal
streets of our cities and shoot a fell
low-man to death and go scott free,
not even being indicted and punished
for carrying concealed weapon. In
other cases men sell intoxicating Ii
duors for months and years without
license, crime, debauchery and even
whom they are indicted, tried and con-
judgment on payment of cost" Such
proceedings have become so monoton-
Gus and disgusting to our law abiding
citizens that in Northampton they are
turning to- the Federal courts for re-
lief in cases of Illicit sale of Whiskey.
This. i'm Northampton. has become
the only way to break up the infa-
nous business. If all of our judges
would deal with these cases as Judge
Ward is reported to be dealing with
them confidence in our State Criminal
courts would be restored
