superintendent J. w. Hicks, Of the
Oxford Orphan Asylum, has just issued
his thanksgiving appeal in behalf Of
Gods little poor, who, fatherless and
in need, are no longer homeless. but
who live under a gentle Christian gui-
dance within safe and sheltering walls
of that institution. 1t is a pleasure to
bring to Record readers the import Of
such a call, especially at the approach
of Thanksgiving, when the child heart
would pulse with keener and deeper
desolateness and would cry out more
pitifully for things and allotments de
MED it. In behalf of such an Offering
of remembrance a paragraph of the
asylum announcement is presented
herewith:
THE privilege of being fellow-work-
ers with God in His great work is ours.
He is allwise. He loves us. One Of the
love is that He offers to you and to me
greatest expressions of His wisdom and
the blessed opportunity to join in
with Him and with our fellowmen in
activities for the betterment Of the

Department OF Justice Investigating
Cases Brought to Their Attention.

Washington, November 13.-Attor-
uey General Moody today issued a cir
cular letter of instructions to United
States Attorneys regarding prosecu-
tons Of violations of the eight ho,dr
law. in which he say the government
is determined upon a strict emf rec
ment Of this statute as relating to pub
lie works Of the UniteI States. All
United States attorneys are directed
diligently to inv estigate all COM
plants which may conIe to them from
any source, Of violation or the law,
and upon their own initiative to make
investigation, if there appears any
reasonable ground for suspec.ing a
violation, and where sufficient evil
dence can be secured it must be sub
mitted to a grand jury with a view tc
securing an Indictment.
Mr.. o. J. Carlton, a lawyer of Ha'
verhill, Mass, has been appointed By
the attorney general to have specia
charge of these cases in the depart

Didn't Touch Bottom.

The esteemed Raleigh News 7 OBJ
server delivers almost q column in eX-
PLANTATION of it's advocacy CT Hearst, but
never once touched bottom. Hearst
was a bolter; SC was Mcclellan, SO was
Judge Parker, SO was Cleveland in sc,
but that does not justify cCndoning
Hearst's offense, for he was worse than
a bolter; he simply threw tire demo-
cratic party down and committed Grim
inal assault, even Dragging on his
boiling at the same time. We are free
to say that had Hearst first secured
the democratic nomination and mad
then been endorsed by other Crgan-
izations he would have been "reguiar,"
but he could never have obtained the
democratic nomination under any
other conditions than those adopted;
he forced it at the point Of a pistol; in
other words he had things in such
shape that he could trade with Tam
| many and as usual after he ad traded
| Murphy threw him down good and
hard-electing the Tamman~ j dyes

Philadelphia, November 1S.-The ma
I ..onal congress on uniform divorce law
held its second session in his city to-
day. The first meeting was held in
Washington nine months ago. at which
time IN adjournment was taken 20
permit a committee 10 draft a bill on
uniform divorce laws to be presented
TO the legislatures OF all the states.
The bal drawn by the committee names
six causes for which divorces can be
granted. They are ilfidel!ty, felony,
bigamy desertion, hGbitual drunken
ness, and intolerable cruelty.
The committee recommends that the
various legislatures lie asked To agree
on a. period of residence, before appii-
cation may be made for divorce. Ii IS
expected by the committee that this
recommendation, If adopted by all the
states will decrease the number of mi
sratory divorces.
Governor Pennypacker presided.
The roll call showed the presence OF
delegates from q states and the Dis
} trict of Columbia.
In reading sections OF the bill, Chair
man Smith called special attention to
the paragraph which provides that 10
record or evidence in any divorce case
shall be impounded or access thereto
refused. He said there had been some
opposition to making all divorce pro-
ceedings open to the public because OF
the evil influence they may have on
the community, but the committee. he
said, decided on open proceedings be
cause the benefits from public hearings
outweigh the dangers.
In the discussion of muses. for an-
nulment of marriage, Governor Penny
packer took exceptions to the clause
which provided hat If either party, I'M
known to the other, vas nsan at the
time of marriage 1t should be annuileA
The governor held that the CLAUSE not
only gave the sane party the right ID
begin suit, but also TO a committee OF
the lunatic. This would give a COM
mission appointed by the court q right
to begin a suit in the name OF an insane
even il the person not insane did not
want divorce. He argued that mar
riage was a personal relation and a
third person had no rights in the con-
tract
Seneca n. Taylor Of st. Louis, and
C.. LaRue Munson, OF Williamsport,
Pennsylvania, clashed with the gov
ernor on the subject.
The clause was adopted.
The congress passed upon about one
third of the bill as presented by the
committee. With few minor changes
all the causes for annullment for al!
acuses for absolute divorce wero
adopted.

rs CIDER INTOXICATING?
Board Of Aldermen in Goldsboro VIII
Soon Wrestle With the Problem.
(Snecial to The Messenfer.)

toDCSloA ~ AN
Go,dsboro, n. c., November 14.-At
a recent meeting of the board OF alder
men q prohibition member Of that
bodv introduced an ordinance to be
adopted at the next regular meeting OF
the board which has provoked right
much discussion. The ordinance when
drawn according to instructions Will
imDose a license tax of five hundred dol
lars on all merchants who sell cider
and other like drinks. The reason
given by the aldermen who made he
motion was that cider was Intoxicating
It is claimed that if cider is ~intoxicat-
ing the board of aldermen under the
prohibition law now in force has no
| right to issue a privilege tax for the
| sale of that drink. and it is further
claimed thai if the beard Of aldermen
have right to issue a privilege license
for the sale of Intoxicating drinks they
would also have the right to license a
saloon. The people who have been
| selling cider claim that the board have
no more right to put a privilege tax on
cider than they have on 0 fountain
drinks. The case has been widely dis
cussed and when it ONE UP for ad-
iustment there will be much interest
manifested. It is here like it is in
all prohibition communities. There is
a demand for stimulants of some kline
and of course every effort has beer
made to supply this demand by trying
to keep within the limits Of the law.

The days Of the wooden passenger
cars on first class railroads are num-
Ibered. Such a car will soon be a thing
|of the past. The Pennsylvania rail-
Iroad has placed an order for five hun
ldred and fifty steel coaches to be de-
|livered in a year and will build fifty
lof the same kind at it's own shops.
THE company has been contemplating
this change for ONE time, but has
been waiting until it could secure a
lsuitab1e design. These six hundred
lcars will cost between six million and
ten million dollars. The Pullman COM
Ipany is building number of steel
sleeping cars which will be put on the
PENNSYLVANIA railroad. This looks like
the era of the steel coach is upon us.
No doubt other railroads will soon fol-
low the example Of the Pennsylvania
when they see it practically demon,
Istrated that the lives of passengers and
|train crew. are much safer in sucn
trains. If the railroads could substi-
,tute steel mail cars for the light wood
len ones they now use travel would
be still safer. In a majority of col
Ilisions it is the mail coaches which sui
lfer the worse. The are more easily
lcrushed, and increase the possibility
lof disaster; also, they are often torn
Ito pieces and their inmates killed whlle
none in the passenger coaches suffers
I~serious injury.

THE KILLING OF WILL HARRIS

The press dispatches the
killing of the man who committed the
five murderers in Asheville last Tues
day night. We are glad that the fend
met his doom as he did. That was
much better than if he had been cap
tured and taken to Asheville for i'm
mediate trial-the superior court is now
in session and two true bills for muir
der nave already been found against
him-for we do not believe he would
nave ever reached the court house door.
Infatuated against him as the people
Of that city are no power on earth
could have prevented his lynching.
Horrible as were his crimes and as
much as he deserved punishment ten
times worse than he received, were it
possible, it would have been unfortu-
nate had the people of Asheville stain
far better as it happened. He was an
outlaw. He had forfeited his life. He
would not surrender to the posse, but
attempted to escape. The men who
were trying to capture him were within
the law when they fired ON him to pre-
vent his escape. Thus ends a horrible
tragedy which might have had more
horrors added to it if the mar had
been captured and taken to Asheville
for there is no knowing to what
lengths the peoples frenzy might have
driven them.
