A Special Memorial Day.

In talking with Mayor Williams
regarding the observance of Memoir
ial day, he suggested that owning to-
the scarcity of flowers here at this
time of the year, It would be W II to
have special memorial day some
time in June-about the 18th or
18th, at which time flowers would be
much more plentiful. AS nearly all
of the fraternal orders have regu-
lar memorial day in June, Mr.. Will
liams' idea is that. the several lodges
in Mo tpelier might decide upon a
day and that the citizens generally
would unite with them in the prop
er observance of that day. :
We think that the suggestion of
the mayor is good one, and mas
much as the second Sunday in June
is annually observed by the Ofd
Fellows as day for holding
memorial services for departed men,
bers of the order and for decorating
their graves, why would it not be
we'll to select that day for general
memorial day. Committees could
be selected from the various lodges
to make general arrangements. As
the weather at that time ought to be
favorable, short but appropriate ex
erclses might be held IN the grove at
the L. D. S. meeting house, after
which all who desire, could go to
the cemetery and assist in the dec
Grafton of graves.
Pursuant to the Mayors sugges-
ton, we would recommend that the
matter be taken mp by the various
lodges at their next meeting, and if
favorably acted upon, reportucould
be made to the Mayor in time for
him to issue proclamation designa-
ting the day fixed upon as special
memorial day.

WHERE. ARE WE AT?

IN one day one Senator introduced
a bill to reduce taxation, and the PEG
pie presumed that there was plenty
of money TO care for the insane and
the schools with a FAX reduction.
Another Senator On the same morning
introduced 81 bill to issue 100000 of
State bonds to provide for the neccS-
sary appropriations. This would cause
the people TO believe that the State
finances are in. Il desperate condition.
Neither conclusion would be correct.
There is great need for ar increase
in the accommodations for the insane
and extension CT educational affairs.
IT will require the increased revenue
of the next TWO years TO make the
the exercise of close economy. 1t is
better to continue the present tax rate
for the next two years and invest il
in permanent improvements than TO
reduce the tax rate and issue bonds.
One of the causes must be pursued if
we care for the insane and TO The
other things that are absolutely neces-
sary. Until they were incorporated,

STOP LOCAL LEGISLATION.

There is but one way 10 stop the
present local legislation or temper
c,nce. 1t is to make q general. self
acting law that will make it mncces-
se,ry.
The Democratic platform declares
That liquor shall not be sold or manu-
featured except where there is "atIe-
quate police protection Nobody who
understands anything about govern
ment believes there can be ''adcquais.
police protection in town dominated
by distillerics, as, for example, Shore.
Williams, Myrtle and Hoffman. or
course this Legislature will wipe out
these spawn towns, but it should go
further and prevent the taking OF these
stills into other little villages small
enough to be dominated by still con-
tingent.
This Legislature cannot escape driv-
Mig out shore, Williams and Advance.
Better than TO pass special bills, how
ovc-, driving them out by name, is to
enact the Ward bill that will give the
knock out blow to liquor in those
towns and Ill other towns too small
to give "ADEQUATE POLICE PRO
TECTION."
The Democratic party will be bene-
fitted by consistent policy OF that
kind it is hurt by inconsistent local
legislation.

AS TO RAILROAD FARE.

The present law requires railroads
to sell first and second class tickets.
The railroads wish TO change that and
to have 8 single fare of three cents a
mile. which would reduce the first
class fare from IA cents and in
crease the second class fare from 81
cents, thus imposing an Increase of a
quarter Of a cent q mile on the poor
est people who travel. Mr.. Laugh
inghouse, Of Pitt, has introduced bill,
permitting the abolition of two classes,
and making the straight passenger
fare two and one-haif cents. Pending
the consideration Ct that, bill has
been introduced striking out the pro-
vision H. the present laws making a
requirement that railroads shall sell
first and second class tickets, with 10
provision for reducing the rate Of
fare.
That is not the way TO handle this
important matter. The Legislature
ought either TO pass the Laughing
house bilf or refer the entire matter
to the Corporation Commission with
power to act.

WHAT 1T MEANS.

II is said that the passage of the
Ward bill in the Senate would not
affect ten places in North Carolina
And that is true, for there are not
stills in that many towns of less pop
ulation than 1000. Who will be
found 70 say that preventing distilling
in not over ten small towns will in
juriously affect the Democratic party
in North Carolina? They ought to
be stopped because they are foun-
tains of evil, debauching small COM
munities that lack adequate police
protection" in the interest Of good
morals But the attempt is made to
defeat the Ward bill because "it will
injure the party" whereas it will do
the party good and not harm.
The bill will prevent the necessity
of further temperance legislation and
agitation. Unless the Ward bill
passes we will see the stills driven out
Of Hoffman, Myrtle, Shore, Williams
and Advance and go into other towns
that are 100 small to he saved from
such control. The Ward bill is pre-
ventiveit will prevent the stills immi
grating from town to town, laying up
trouble for the future unless some
general plan like the Ward bill is
enacted

ADVANCE AND HAMLET.

Hamlet, and they presented their
cause through host of witnesses so
well that they easily made a strong
impression upon the committee. Al
Advance, on the other hand, the adj
vocates of driving out the stills were
poor in purse and represented the
humble and weak, while tho rich and
powerful men stand for the stills from
which they derive their wealth. They
could therefore get their case before
the committee in the strongest posi-

between Hamlet and Advance. l shall

Death Thought to Have Been Due to
Confusion at the Base Of the Brain

al Wednesday.

AS result of injuries received while
riding a Northwestern passenger train
to this city Friday night, Frank Mayo,
of Nevada, died at st. Thomas hospital
at 3 o'clock this morning. Death is
thought to have been caused by a con-
fusion of the brain, from a blow re-
ceived near the base of the skull. AL
tho there was no mark to indicate it,
the symptoms indicated such to be the
case.
Mayo's condition showed improve
ment Saturday and early Sunday. In
the afternoon he grew worse and con-
tinued to grow weaker until the end.
His parents, Mr.. and Mrs. John Mayo,
and sister, Lucy, all of Nevada, who
were summoned here by the accident,
We're at the bedside when he died.
Mayo was employed by farmer liv-
Ing near Nevada. and why he came to
this city during Friday night his faith
er was unable to say, unless out of a
spirit of adventure he came for the
ride. With him was another young
man who worked on the same farm.
Frank r. Mayo, was born in Nebras-
ka, Aug. II, 1886, and with his par
ents moved to Nevada nine years ago,
where the family has since lived. Be-
sides his parents, he is survived by two
sisters and three brothers. The latter
are Miss Lucy Mayo, Mrs. Myrtle
Padelford. and Forrest, George and
Ralph Mayo. all of Nevada. The faith
er took the body to Nevada this after
noon, and the funeral will be held at
the Nevada Christian church Wednes-
day afternoon at o'clock.
