HIGH TRIBUTE TO Mr.. PHILLIPS.

The Raleigh Chamber of Commerce
chose well in elccting Mr.. Robert NJ.
Phillips secretary Of that body. Mr.
Phillips was a good newspaper cdi-
tor. his best and most conspicuous
work being done on the Raleigh
Morning Post, and he will perform
hispresent duties with equal diligence
and ability. The State lost good
editor but the Raleigh Chamber OF
Commerce has gained Il good secre-
tary. The Raleigh Times says this:
For many reasons we are heartily
glad that Mr.. Robert NJ. Phillips, late
editor OF the Morning Post, has been
elected secretary Of the Chamber OF
Commerce, chief among them being
that he will continue to reside in Raj
eigh. Moreover he will be a valuable
man for IL valuable organization and
he will show it in Il most substantial
way. There will be general regret in
the State, however, that he will re-
tire from active newspaper work. the
kind that brought him in close con-
tact with the people every day His
recent election by HcclamatiOn as
president OF the North Carolina Press
Association was Il high honor worth
lily bestowed, and both the daily and
weekly newspapers are giving him
his full share of praise for the good
he accomplished while in the cdito-
rial department of the Post. Mr..
Phillips was an editor who had the
welfare OF the State very close to his
heart and one could always count
upon him i'll any matter Of vital pub
lie interest. He lacked the vicious
ness which often characterized many
OF the craft, but he was better and
cleaner because OF it. "There was
nothing selfish or narrow about its
policy, says the Wilmington Mes
SenSer III referring to the Post under
the management of Mr. Phillips. 1T
was open, fair and above board in its
dealings and handling of public mat
ters. 1t stood for the people : rights
and for self government by the peo-
pie. 1t had the courage of its con
vlctlons and was not afraid stand bv
them, and its editor had the person
nj courage to stand up for what was
said III the editorial columns.''
SO while he found that the paper
could not succeed financially, it was
not due to any failure in his depart
ment, and after the long and weary
watching MIR. Phillips ought to find
some comfort in the thought that he
did his best and that it was appre-
clated 10y those who were capable of
passing Judgment.

THOUGHTS ABOUT THANKSGIVING

Commenting on Thanksgiving Day
and for what, when and how we
should show a spirit of gratitude to
the Giver of all things, the Farmville
(Na.) Herald says:
Why give thanks. and for what?
To show gratitude for blessings re-
ceived at the hands of Him who
watches and controls worlds in His
grasp and does not overlook even
the birds of the fields. Man is us a
rule a selfish being. Otherwise every
day would be day to give thanks
Ard SO the custom has arisen to set
aside one day, at least, in the year to
take stock of our blessings and give
thanks therefor. Is there any reader
OF this paper who has not much to
be thankful for? If good health. that
is much. II material wealth and
prosperity, that is something. If
friends, that is indeed a rich blessing
Ii children. happy and fresh and Joy
Gus around the family hearthstone,
or i'll life doing well, that should
cause song of praise and a prayer
for continuance in the heart of every
parent. If an earnest endeavOr to be
right, to do right, to think right,
that should cause everyone to thank
God for putting such desire in ones
heart. Why not give thanks?
When should thanks be given? All
the time But if such has not been
the custom with every one, there is
no better time to start than now.
How should thanks be given? BY
determination to give them more
in the future than in the past BY a
resolve to so live that the better life
may cause thanks for the Inspiration
given the heart. By remembering
the fact that probably some one
needs helping hand or will be
frightened by friendly gift. The
giver will be the happier. \ kindly
remembrance will not go wrong.
The law of love is that he who gives
of thoughtfulness and time and
money gains, while he who keeps
loses. It's 4 law that never changes.
He that giveth of his life, gains a
higher and richer and happier life
He that saves it loses the richer and
higher life and falls to a life on low
er plane. The wonderful thing about
unselfshness is that it leads con-
stantly to greater riches in character
"a constant gain. The terrible curse
of selfshness is that it leads invaria-
bly, downward, to awakened charac-
ter-a constant loss.
Why not give thanks to God and a
large measure of life and thought
and substance to the brother man?

Pirating Foley's Honey and Tar.

Foley & Co., Chicago, originated Honey
and Tar as Il throat and lung remedy, and
on account of the great merit and popularity
of Foley's Honey and Tar many limitations
offered fer the genuine. These worthless
limitations have similar sounding names.
Beware of them. The genuine Foley's Honey
and Tar is in a yellow package. Ask for it
and refuse any substitute. 1t is the best

The adventure spirit is the one
which has made the great merchant,
and which keeps the same merchant
great, because he knows that the true
source of his mercantile success has
been due to his advertising and the
bigness of it. The failures in trades
OF all kinds can be generally traced
and found to be due to lack of mer-
camille enterprise, which was often
seen in the absence of the spirit of
adventure.

MAVERICK LOST WITNESS
Remarkable Story of NofoIk Druggist
who Died Before Famous Trial

Lynchburg, Va, June sc. b. Fleet,
the well-known druggist here and Sec
retary of the State Pharmaceutical AS
sociation, declares that just previous to
the last trial of Mrs. Florence May
brick the late Fred H. Mast, who was
then treasurer Of the association and
had drugstore near the corner of Main
and Church streets, Norfolk, almost op-
posite the Purcell house, was in Lynch
burg for some time for the benfit of his
health.
He then told Mr.. Fleet that the May
bricks often stopped at the Purcell
house and visited his store, that Mr..
Maybrick frequently got on sprees, re-
sulting in complete breakdown, and
used arsenic as a pickme-up and was
habituated to it's use.
Mr.. Mast told Mr. Fleet he had then
been summoned to England as witness
and expected that his evidence would do
much towards clearing Mrs. Maybrick.
Soon after this and just before he was
due to sail for England, Mr.. Mast be-
came worse, returned to Norfolk and
died.

noch Sentenced to Hang.

Chicago, Junr 3,-Johann Hoch, con-
victed wife murderer and confessed BIZ
gamist, was sentenced by Judge Ker-
sten today to be hanged June2 When
the court asked if Hoch had anything to
say why SENTENCE SHOULD not be pro-
nounced, Hoch replied:
Judge, l am willing to die tonight
if you think am guilty. l am inno-
cent of the crime, but will say now
the crime was committed. God for
give you all, God have mercy on your
souls. | have no feeling against you.
If you think l am guilty of this mur-
der, l am willing to have my life put
out tonight" "
Hoch then sat down. He was palpa-
bly, nervous. Perspiration covered his
face and he was very pale.
Judge Kersten said;
''This court has no doubt that this
man put that poor, confding woman to
death; the woman you, Hoch, had
sworn to protect, the woman who gave
you her ALL"
Formal sentence was passed and Hoch
was taken back to Jail.

HOME MISSION MATTER.
Mrs. H. G, Peery, Editor.

The Brewers Book, of Boston, is re-
sponsible for the statement that Great
er New York has a saloon for each 38O
of it's population and church for each
$500, while there are wards of the city
with saloon for each 180 and church
for each 10000 of its people.
Miss Doremas, of New York, told the
Boston branch of the Woman's Union
Missionary Society that the Buddhist
priests advise Hindoo fathers to send
their sons to America to cure them of
Christianity. The Christian nation that
we claim to be ought to blush at such a
commentary as this.

FOR LIEUTENAN T-GOVERN0R
Friends of Hon. John Acker VIII Pre-
sent his Name at Coming State Con.
Venti0n

Since the first of the year there has
been an earnest effort among the Rep
ublican leaders throughout:the state to
put the party in fighting trim for the
fall campaign, when Governor and
other state officers are to be elected.
A systematic campaign has been waged
among the Republicans throughout the
State, under the leadership of State
Chairman C. B. Slemp, to have the
voters qualify themselves to vote in the
fall election by the payment of poll-tax,
to meet the Constitutional requirement,
preparatory to making vigorous fight
to carry the State.
While the campaign for the payment
of poll tax has been vigorously waged,
the matter of placing on the ticket the
strongest man in the party has not been
lost sight of. For months past it is said
that the party leaders have been look
ing the field over for the most formid-
able candidates for a successful fight,
and at the same time men who, when
elected, will discharge the duties of
office ably and with the most credit to
the State. N
The Valley is looked to for repres-
entative on the ticket this year, and
from party leaders all over the State
the inquiry comes: "Why can't Hon,
John Acker, of Rockingham, be pre-
vailed upon to accept the nomination
for Lieutenant Govemor2"
Hen. John Acker has for years been
the most conspicuous figure in Republi-
can politics in the 7th District, and has
been urged repeatedly by his party to
accept the Congressional nomination.
The esteem in which he is held by the
Republicans of his own District is at
tested by his having been twice In rec
ent years, sent, unsolicited by him, as
Delegate to the National Convention, in
1896 and 1904.
President Roosevelt has shown his
confidence in him by making him Chair
man of the Patronage Conferees for the
7th District. AS a member of the
House of Delegates and of the Senate
of Virginia, he has shown eminent fit
ness for presiding officer of the Senate.
His long service as a member of the
State Committee and the prominent
part he hastaken in State conventions
has made him one of the best known
Republican leaders In the State.
The Republicans of the Valley will,
at the approaching State Convention,
present Mr.. Acker's name for Lieuten=
ant Governor, as the Valley representa-
tive on the ticket. His strong person
atty his unselfsh devotion and untiring
zeal for the best interests Of his State,
makes him a most formidable candi-
date. In putting him forward, his
friends will be acting in accordance
with the expressed judgment of many
of the most influential leaders from all
sections of Virginia. in Harri-
sonburg Daley News.

1t will be interesting to great many
people to know that the largest, strong
est and most successful banks in the
United States pay interest on savings
account, all of the banks, both State
and National, of Lynchburg, Richmond,
Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia
and New York City, pay interest on
savings accounts, thereby securing
large deposits that they are enabled to
loan at good rate of interest and dis
count. The stock of these banks is the
most profitable of any in the country,
more than three-fourths of the banks
of the United States are now paying in
terest on savings accounts and doing it
successfully. The American National
Bank of Graham, Va, has adopted this
plan, after very careful consideration of
the matter. 1t is the only bank in this
immediate community that openly and
fairly announces this, that it will pay
interest to everybody alike, special
privileges to none.
There is no question as to the securi-
ty of your money when placed in Ma
tional Bank, and it is decidedly more
secure where the bank is progressive
and enterprising in its methods of
doing business, because all of the inter-
ests of the bank and its depositors are
safely guarded. This bank offering in
terest at its very beginning in business,
and making its arrangements for plac-
ing and handling its deposits can do it
proftably, much more so than a bank
having been in business here for num-
ber of years, and having secured
large deposits on which they pay the
public nothing and loaning it. out on
that basis, and for that reason we re-
main the only bank paying interest in
the community.
You are not bound by any contract to
leave your money any period of time,
but can withdraw it whenever you like,
and if it is not withdrawn within sixty
days from the time Of the deposit the
regular interest of three per cent. will
be allowed. This is destined to be of
great help to people with money that
they do not care to invest permanently,
because you draw interest from the first
day you deposit it.
Your correspondence is solicited where
you have any intention of opening a
new account, either as an individual
firm or corporation.

Toxic, June 3.-With the destruction
of Russia's naval power, interest is re-
turning to military operations on land.
Togo's victory tremendously alters the
military situation and removes all limits
of offensive operations against Russia s
maritime provinces. 1t is now posi-
bic to effectively close Vladivostok,
seize Sakhalin, the mouth of the Amur
River, Kamtchatka and any point be-
tween the Tumen River and the arctic
circle that Japan may desire.
A foreign military observer, discuss
ing the question with the correspondent
of the Associated Press, says:
"Togo's victory may drive Russia
away from the Pacific coast of Asia.
Japan now has free hand in Russia S
maritime provinces and her
offensive capability is unlimited. Moth
ing bars the way except the Russian
forces at Vladivostok, whose speedy
isolation is possible. The Amur River
is open to Japan and Russia's defensive
capability is now entirely limited to the
capacity of the Chinese-Siberian Rail-
way"
