THE ASSOCIATED CHARITIES.
Work Being Done in Raleigh and the
Need Of Adm. The Organization.

public interest in, and appreciation
of the work being done by the AsSo-
ciated Charities was never greater
than at present as an opportunity has
been ven to show how practical the
work is. Under a newl>plan there is
a life history SO to speak, prepared OF
every family visited and receiving aid.
Z his is kept on what are known as
record envelopes, which are opened to
inspection by all subscribers TO the AS
Sociated Charities. 1t can readily be
seen that by this means a great deal
of valuable information is instantly al
hand. AS q result of the efforts or the
Association street begging and other
kinds have been reduced to a mini
mum in Raleigh, and the worthy poor,
those who really deserve aid, have
been picked out With marked success
and caro-. The result is that charity is
not wasted but is put where ii is
needed. The point is that there ought
TO be many more subscribers TO the
Associated Charities than there now
are Subscribers are given books con
tanning little cards and any appIica.
ton made is passed on to the Asso-
citation superintendent merely by a
few words written on a card. This
enables relief TO be given Immediately,
if it is found to be deserved. and thus
fraud and imposition are prevented.
and people who need help are helpe0
i'm exactly the right fashion. and at the
same time a record of the case is Sc
cured for further use. This system is
a high value. not only TO the giver of
aid but to the one who received it.
There is no discrimination among tho
worthy poor on account of religious
belief or the lack of it. all who are
worthy receiving aid in hearty fash
ion The friendly visitors of the AS
ISOLATION cover the city very thorough
ly and are only too happy to have the
opportunity of looking into the cases
and ascertaining the real need of APP
plicants. Winter is coming on and the
cold weather makes the needs of. the
poor much greater, and at the same
time increases many-fold the work OF
the Associated Charities. Every dol
lar subscribed means something prac-
teal, and it is hoped that the Raleigh
people have had so fine an object les

EngIand's Premier is
Making Ready.
T)day May See the Resignation OF
,Hims 4 and The Cabinet and an
Appeal by Him to The
Country.
(By the Associated Press. )

London, Nov. 23.-Tremendous ac-
tivity developed in political circles to-
&C.,, Consequent on the circulation of
a we'll founded report that Premier
Balfour had decided to bring his
ministry TO close and directly or in
directly to appeal to the country. Ru-
mors regarding the resignation of the
cabinet and the dissolution of parlia-
ment have been thick for three
months past, but when two of the
leading government organs today, al
most in the same terms, suggested
the immediate resignation of the
premier on account of the unmenda-
BILE breach in the Unionist party over
the fiscal question. the Suggestion
was looked upon as having been in
spired by Mr.. Balfour himself. This
was strengthened by the knowledge
that prior to the ublicat ton of the
editorials Mr.. Balfour met certain in
auental persons at his ofic al resi-
dence in Downing street.
Those two facts when coupled. led
10 the belief that the premier had in
timated at the conference his inten
ton to resign, and as he had just re-
turned from a visit to King Ed
ward al Windsor Castle, it was be-
lieved that his majesty had been in
formed of Mr.. Balfour's intentions.
BEYOND this, however there is not the
slightest official confirmation of the
report.
All political interest now centers in
the cabinet meeting to be held to-
morrow, at which it is understood
the situation will be discussed. Some
well informed persons go so far as to
say that Mr. Balfour will go from
the meeting to King Edward with
the resignation of himself and the
other members of the cabinet.
Conservative and Unionist papers
are in favor of the resignation of the
cabinet which Will place the Liberals
on the defensive in case Sir Henry
annerman consents to
form a cabinet, but the Radicals say
that the resignation will only mean
dissolution, as Sir Henry, if requested
to form a ministry, would certainly
decline to do so until the Yerdict of
the people became known. The
Liberal papers point out that while
Mr. Balfour may attempt this "tacti-
cal move" they are confident it viii
fail on every side and that therefore
the dissolution of parliament is be-
lieved 70 be imminent. There is no
thought, however, that a political
Will be forced prior 10 the
beginning Of the year with the Sc
lections somewhere about the end of
January.
