EMANCIPATION DAY.
Its Observance In GOldsbOrO:
Resolutions Adopted. and
Officers Elected.

Goldsboro, N. c., Doc. 81, 1904.
EDITOR ARGUS:
The Educational, Agricultural and
Industrial mass meeting Of the col
4ored citizens of this county, convened
in this city at 1 o'clock, with presi-
dent A. A. Smith, former postmas-
ter of MI. Olive, in the chair. The
we'll selected programme was opened
by the singing of "America," in
which the entire audience joined.
Prayer was offered by the Rev. j.
B. Howell, followed by a very time
ly and instructive address delivered
by Rev. A. A. Smith.
A we'll written paper was read by
Mrs. S. G. Baskerville oA'The Edu-
cational and Industrial needs of our
people,
The musical part of the program
was under the personal supervision
of Miss Julia A. AIMEE, who was as
sisted by a large chorus Of the best
trained voices in the city. Several
plantation melodies were rendered
to the satisfaction and pleasure of all
present.
Mr.. J. A. Groom, of the Fayette-
Vile State Normal School, delivered
a brief address which was we'll re-
ceived.
The principal speaker of the day
was Prof. Bluford, of the colored A.
& M. College, at Greensboro. This
was indeed a thoughtful and timely
address not so much marked by ora
tory as by the statement of facts and
the imparting of information so
beneficial to our educators and farm
eers.
The resolutions, UNANIMOUSLY
adopted, were as follows:
We, the colored people of Wayne
county, in mass meeting assembled,
take this opportunity of expressing
our high appreciation and gratitude
to Almighty God for His fatherly
care and %watchfulness over US during
the past year.
And do humbly acknowledge oul
dependence upon Him for all Oul
needs.
Never before have conditions leo
us to think so seriously and we'll up
on these great cardinal principles
which alone can render us both pc
tential and useful as a people,.
Our past mistakes are an opeI
page, yet no more than could b'
reasonably expected of a race 81
recently emancipated and thrown
upon its own responsibility.
We are passing through a dari
and critical period of u life a
American citizens, being up agalns
the real thing. There is, however
a spirit OF fair play and justice il
mauhood that is becoming more an.

of his future and is determined I

President Roosevelt.

Theodore Roosevelt is the .grea test
preacher Of the twentieth century, and
his doctrine is manliness. He breaches
physical manlness as we'll as intellec-
tual and moral manliness, and his SER
mons are full of inspiration. II heartily
believe in sport" said he in his recent
sermon at Harvard. 1T believe in OUT
door games, and do not mind in the
least that they are rough games, or that
those who take part in them are occa-
sionally injured. 1 have no sympathy
whatever with the overwrought senti-
mentality which would keep young
man In cotton WOOL and have a hearty
contempt for him If he counts a broken
arm or collar bono as serious conse-
Quencc, when balanced against the
chance OF showing that he possesses har-
dihood, physical address and courage"
But he believes only in manly sport. and
he denounced, IN the strongest language,
Of a manly sportsman, tho athlete who
plays unfairly and dishonorably. Dis
honorable methods on the field are as
Dad as dlsnonOTaoie llelnouS III pusl-
ness and politics, and the college which
wink ut such methods In its sports will
be sure to send out into the world a
small army of triclsters and corruption
lists to prey upon society. The Presl-
dent has done we'll to emphasize that in
our colleges none but tho manifest and
most honorable sport is to be tolerated,
and that the honor system must be en-
forced on the field as we'll us in the

$50 far as tho question OF sex Is con-
cefned," says Mr.. Everett p, Wheeler In
a letter to the New York Times in refer
cnce to the case of Mrs. Rogers tho YER
mont murdercss, "all experience shows
that, while really good women are moro
generous ana self-sacr!ficing than the
best OF men, mad women are worse and
more dangerous to society. They are more
sly, more crafty, and when they have
played their game and been detected,
find 1t easy to appeal to the same false
sentiment which Is leading many In the
present instance to ask for q remission OF
the just consequence Of deliberately
chosen course of conduct. Men may talk
Of inhumanity, as Wellington said. but
there Is nothing so inhuman as impun1ty..
This is In Illustration of the contention
of some that Il woman Is either at one cx-
IRENE or tho other, either q blessing or
curse TO humanity, There Is doubtless
middle class among women. hut there
,.are no two opinions that thoroughly
good woman Is the best OF Gods
creatures. while thoroughly bad
woman is the worst. But, glory ia
God, the good women are vastly in the
majority.

Abolish the Bad Liquor.

DR.. William III. Moore states IN the
North American Rcview that not all al
coholic liquors are injurious to man, but
that the excessive use OF some that con-
tain fuscl oil certainly tends to cause
disease Of the cerebral convoluton which
may cventuatc in insanity, or may be one
of the symptoms of special senses.
If, however, the. beverages are free OF the
obnoxious oil there is not produced any
such effect. Alcoholic liquors being made

ming from the still into the distillatc
poison, poison the brain and induce

ethylic alcohol, distilled with careful
separation from amylic, merely excite the
cerebral functions. simply inducing
ethylism.
If two puppies are fed, the one on
cheap saloon whskey, Dr.. Moore alleges,
ana the other on the purest, the autopsy
OF the former will show diseased brain.
While the brain of the latter will be
found normal.
III view of the human inclination to-
ward Indulgence in alcoholic liquors., DR..
Moore considers it the duty of social
science to contribute to the cause Of tenn
perance by means OF provision against
amylism through the media of the condi-
ton Of cthyism. Tie time demands not

and use of alcoholic liquors, out the sup

The pure food laws have done much
for the healtp"af the people. We have
@ first rate law in Virginia, and 1t has
already had the effect to drive out of the
market many impure and ndulterated
articles Of food. we are doing great
deal also to prevent the infection of
milk. But little, If anything. Is being done
here to prevent the sale Of impure liquors.
We are sure from hearsay and observa-
ton, that much of the so-callcd whiskey
sold in this city is not only impure, but

would pay us we'll to have an nspec-
tor, or number of inspectors, whose
duty it should be to visit tho saloons
regularly and select samples Of the
liquors there offered for sale. and to
have them put to a thorough chemical
lest. If so. VIC doubt not that much
of the liquor regularly sold would be
retired from the market. If wo could
eradicate the bad liquor the liquor evil
would be greatly reduced. 1t is n subject
that demands our attention. The city
legalzes the liquor traffic and licenses
men to sell alcoholic drinks, III doing

and Is in duty bound TO take all neces-
sary precaut!on against the sale of liquor
