The Peoples Friends p

They were for the common peo-
pie. We mean that 1905 legisla-
ture; may be they will all want to
go back and help you some more.
By reading the machinery acts of
1901, chapter 9, section 80, page
131, you will see that a magistrate
or a notary (outside of city, could
draw up or fill out deed or any
like legal document and charge a
small fee, without license. The
legislature of 1903 came in. They
amended by saying that any officer
of a town of less than 1000 in
habitants, filling out or drawing up
any deed or contract for fee should
pay license of $500. The friends
of all the dear people in the raral
districts were sent to the legislature
of 1905, and they said, "Be it en-
acted that any officer outside of the
cities Of less than 1000 Inhabitants,
who draws up Or fills out legal docu-
ments such as deeds, contracts, etc.,
and charges fee, shall pay license
of So" If a farmer lives twenty
miles from this city and wants
contract drawn, he must come to
this city. A justice Of the peace
can't do the work and charge %
ce ats for it unless he has first took
out $40 worth of license though he
may not get $500 worth of work in
a whole year. IF you send another
crowd this year Of the same calibre
as the last legislature there is no
telling where they will stop; they
may make it criminal offense fox a
magistrate to fill out a legal docu-
ment if he lives in the country. Is
this class legislation? We say it is,
and if you stop moment to think
for yourself you will see that it is
legislating against the mass Of the
people and in favor of the classes.
The above is a fair sample Of the
acts of the last bench warmers. For
class legislation and unconstitutional
acts they were a bowling success

THE WAY TO REFORM.
The following item is from the
Daily Industrial News:

The following item is from the
Daily Industrial News:
1.-The cities Of North Carolina may
close every red-light den in their
midst, but they never will curb the
evil so long as the man most at fault
is allowed to put all the blame and
infamy upon some poor weak wo-
man."
The News is eternally right. Not
many towns have succeeded in rum
ming out the disreputable women,
and if all the towns Of the State
were to succeed in this undertaking,
and stop there, what have they
gained? Wouldn't women who are
now pure in heart, but weak in the
flesh, soon take their places? This
paper does not condone crime of any
kind, and what we mean by the
above is that if the authorities OF
any town expect TO get rid of dis
reputable women they must at the
same time get rid Of the disreputa-
BILE men of that town. Or else all
their efforts of reform along this
line are q sham and farce.

A HEALTHY SIGN,

The following from the Whining
ton Messenger is healthy sign:
"The Democrats of this State are
no longer under the lash of few
party rulers as they were in the
past. 1t is strange that these men
cannot learn this. The time has
passed when the slate can be made
up in Raleigh and forced down the
thrOats Of the masses of the party.
Men will claim the right to strike
from their ballots the names of GER
tain men they think unfit for the
Offices to which they have been
nominated and still demand the
right to be called democrats and the
privilege to affiliate with that party.
But if they are threatened with ex-
pulsion from the party for pursuing
such course then their votes will
be lost to the ticket"

The April ''Smart Set"

The automobile has found a per.
manent place in modern fiction, but
no better motor car story has been
written than "The Typhoon," by
Harrison Robertson, which opens the
April number of The Smart Set.
Perhaps no issue Of any magazine
has ever contained such variety of
fiction. There are stories which will
appeal to every kind of reader, for
instance, those who like a ghost
story will find a particularly good
one in "The Woman IN Gray"
which Ethel Watts Mumford tells
with her usual cleverness. A hui
morous love story, 1.-THE Way of a
Maid" by John W. Knapp, will ap.
peal to every lover of youth, and
"Franco's Lucky Penny" by Fred
eric Taber Cooper, is a tragic story
Of great originality and strength.
There is Mardi Gras story, sThe
Dragon Fly" by M. E. M. Davis,
wherein the author has captured the
very spirit of carnival time. Ger
trude Lynch tells a splendid love
story called ssThe Man and the
Bird" and Ellis Parker Butler has
never been more humorous than in
his story, "Non Compos Mentis."

SUBSCRIPTION RATES.
THE DEMOCRATIC MACHINE.
Webster's Weekly democratic.
says {: !:

says:
ave surrender our editorial space
this week to the admirable address
of Gen. Julian S. Carr before the
tobacco growers convention at Dur
ham a short time ago. 1t rings like
a bugle call TO battle. Some Of its
passages make the blood Jingle. 1t
is the manly speech Of a true North
CaTOlinian."
1t is very strange, to the uninia-
ted, that democratic papers can sur
render their editorial space, and poll
ticians stop to sing praises of Mr..
Carr until he wants an office, and
then not only the papers but the
machine politicians turn their backs
on him and defeat him for the nOmi-
nation. There is not a man in North
Carolina who has contributed more
to the democratic campaigns than
Mr.. Carr. He put one democratic
daily on its feet, and then while
it was pretending to support him, it
knitted him in the back. They used
him to try to drag the Confederate
soldiers into the democratic party,
they used him to 60 through the
State to make speeches, they pulled
his leg for campaign contributions
until they almost dislocated it, and
then they turned him down. We
believe they did permit him to run
for an office once when they knew
for certain he would be defeated.
But what did they do when he was
a candidate for senator in the demo-
cratic primary in 1900? They not
only fooled the voters into voting
for the machine candidate, but
cheated him in the count where it
was necessary to get majority.
But some may ask why are We so
interested in the case Of Mr.. Carr?
We are not interested in his case
more than in any other, but simply
use it to illustrate the ingratitude
ard perfdy Of the machine. In the
majority Of the cases they only ele-
vate the old men who have for
many years done the tricks of the
party ring, and still they invite the
young men to join their party as
their only salvation. If the young
men will only keep posted and do
their own thinking not many of
them will join the democratic party
under its present management.

The veters VIII Let Well Esl,axh Alone
We had two Governors and .
would-be President within our gates
last Friday night, Gov. ID. e. Hey
ward, Of South CsroIins, Gov. r. B.
Glenn, OF North Carolina, and Judge
A. B. Parker, Of New York, late
democratic candidate for President.
They were entertained at the Manu-
facturers' Club. Judge Parker read
an essay on the outlook for dernoc-
racy, and we must say the essay was
not encouraging TO Us democrats who
want the other fellow kicked out 60
that We can get our SHOUTS in the
swill trough. He said: ait has
been more than two score years
since the war closed and your people
(meaning the South find themselves
on the threshold Of what promises
to be the most remarkable business
development tie world has ever
known within the same time and
space"
That kind of talk will not have
tendency to induce The people to
make any change. The people will
say let well enough alone. He wants
the next candidate for President to
be from the South. This would
mean defeat by reclamation. Fur
ther on he said:
SIN 1896 you tried Nebraska, and
since that day no old democratic
Northern State has accredited one of
cur party to the United States Sen
ate, and in none has there been a
friendly Governor. All the demo
cratic training schools of the North
elementary, immediate and higher
were closed and have remained 80.
The party paralysis was complete
and almost fatal. In 1904, hoping
to cure, or palliate it, you advised
returning again to New York for
your candidate, only to meet the
worst defeat in our party history.
It is now nearly twelve years since
any man protesting devotion to our
party has been chosen to fill an i'm
portant executive Office, either in
the nation or in any northern demo.
cratic State. At the last election
perhaps eight out Of ten of the vo-
tiers then under thirty were ranged
with our opponents, and today the
party organizations are lifeless, and
their one time leaders either dead.

TILE nuTY VOTING.

The following Is from the Apex
Journal:
"Some times you hear fellow say
he is Disguised with politics and in
tends staying eway from the polls in
future. The reason there is so much
rottenness in modern politics is that
the farmer and other good folks
leave the business TO the "profes-
sionals," who Usually have rings
and name the tickets in their coun-
ties, and run things to suit them.
selves. If every farmer in the sew
eral townships Of The county would
decide in his own mind that in the
future he would vote to cut down
taxes, reduce salaries, vote down the
riDgsters and stand for economy, a
condition of affairs would come
about to bless Cur people"
If we did not know the politics
OF the Apex J.urnal, there would
be reasonable doubt as to whether
the above article was written by a
democratic editor. Mr.. Franklin,
the editor Of the Journal, is writing
along the right lines, and If he can
reform the democratic party, then
he will be worthy Of all the honors
that can be heaped upon him. But
if he finds his task an impossible
one then we invite him to join the
ranks Of party that holds out q

In the April Delineator Mary
Human Abel, who II waging The
Delineator's crusade for safe foods,
says that "the harmful ingredients
added to food are in general or two
kinds: first, those added as preserv-
atives; second, those added TO i'm
prove the appearance OF inferior ma
terials, and these ere chiefly coloring
agents.
In many kinds Of food, freshness
Is matter Of days or even hour,
says Mrs. Abel, and long before IT
was known that the now familiar
microbe was the cause OF the rotting
Of food. household methods were in
use for preventing this deterioration.
The farmer and planter Of q genera
ton ago relied on his smoke house
filled with hams and bacon, his bar
rels Of corned beef and pork, while
the storeroom shelves must be fall
Of pickles and preserves. The use
Of salt and saltpetre Is too ancient
to be traced in their beginnings.
Fish had been from very early times
''soused" in spiced vinegar. These
old-fashioned preservatives-wood
smoke, salt, saltpetre, vinegar, sugar.
spices and alcohol-are still the great
reliance in commercial as well as
home preservation of food materials.
AS TO the need of additions to our
list Of preservatsves, there is no
question. The difficulty arises prin-
cipally from ths fact that foods have
now to be transported great dist
ances, even across continents and
seas, and they must in some cases
keep in good condition for an indefi-
mite time before they are consumed.
Mr.. Abel discusses in full the eff
feet Of preservatives on health, be-
cause that side of the matter has
been brought so prominently before
the people. The results may be
summed up as follows: No proof is
forthcoming of the harm to healthy
individuals Of repeated small doses
of the milder preservatives, but it
would seem from the experiments,
that people differ as to their toler-
ance of these substances, and we
know little of their effect ON those
who are not in good health. We
must conclude that the buyer has a
right to be informed by the label of
presence of preservative other than
the older ones.

STATE LAWS NOT ENFORCED.

STATE LAWS NOT ENFORCED.
Some of the citizens of Graham
are advocating dispensary for that
town. From their card to the pub
lie, in behalf of the dispensary, we
clip the following:
''There has been no sale allowed
by law in this county for a number
of years, and still the sale goes on
as fully as much as before the law
was enacted. The taxpayers are
still compelled to pay all the bur-
dens of government, and the costs
of infractions of laws traceable to
intemperance, just as when the dis
tilleries and bar rooms were open.
There has been no fewer cases of
crime on that account. There is as
much intemperance now N Graham
and in Burlington as there was be.
fore the so called temperance laws
were passed"
We are not interested in the dis
pensary question in Graham. That
is a matter for that town and county
to settle. But we publish the above
to show that the State and city Off
Gals in Graham, as elsewhere in the
State, are not enforcing the Ward
and Watts laws. The News and
Observer, and few other democratic
papers in the State, have tried to
make it appear that the Federal off.
Gals have not been doing their duty,
and still the records show that Uncle
Sans officials have destroyed more
blockade distilleries and captured
more blockade Whiskey in one week
than every State official in North
Carolina during the entire time
since the Ward and Watts laws were
enacted. In many cases the men
selling whiskey against the State
laws, have paid the Federal tax and
therefore cannot be bothered by the
Federal officials, but this does no
debar the State officials from arrest
ing tbs parties and prosecuting then
in the State courts if the official
only desired to.
