FEDERAL CONSTITUTIONAL con
NENTION.

| The address by chief Justice Walter
| Clark in Philadelphia suggesting a
! Federal Constitutional Convention, to-
gether with his argument in favor Of
(! certain changes, has caused much in
terest and discussion. one Of the
! a ablest lawyers in the state writes that
after reading the address Of Judge
Clark it seems to me that there is no
answer to his argument in favor Of
a Constitutional Convention and |
hope our next General Assembly will
pass a vigorous resolution to that eff
feet and also take steps to get other
States to follow" That suggestion is
Il good one. for, whether there will be
general agreement in the changes
proposed by Judge Clark. conven-
ton composed of the best men in the
country would no doubt effect the
necessary changes to make the Fed
eral government more responsive to
the wishes Of the people and in keep
ing with the spirit of this age. The
discussion upon great constitutional
questions by the master minds that
would compose the Convention would
be of great value even if only a nOr-
meet the approval of the majority that
would compose the convention.
An able lawyer, who heard Judge
Clark deliver his address in Philadcl-
phia. writing to North Carolina at
toiney, said:
81 listened to the address of Judge
Clark throughout with the greatest in
terest and so did the entire audience.
Some of them agreed With his position
in toto. some Of them iii part, most
Of them disagreed with him. but the
opinion was unanimous that it was q
bold, stimulating address, SurBa sSine
any that had been delivered before the
society.
L tell YOU your Chief Justice did
the old North State proud last night
and | wished to write to tell you
about it."
One Of the oldest and ablest United
States Senators, who had read Justice
Clark's address, writing to friend in
North Carolina, said:

been more impressed by any argument

The gambling in future by North
Carolina folks during the past twenty
years has cost the State as much as it
has put in building cotton mills. 1t
has sent many prosperous business
men into bankruptcy and blighted use
ful careers. The Legislature of North
Carolina at its session in 1905 decided
to end, in so far as it could, this blood
letting. The Woodard act, which be-
came a law, has more than justified
the expectations of its supporters. and
the day will not come when that safe
form Of swindling' will be tolerated
by the laws of North Carolina.
In the June Everybody's. Merrill \.
league has a virile article upon buck
et-shops, and thus points out how
these swindling concerns called Buck
ct Shop Sharks" are protected by re-
spectacle institutions:
yet because the bucket-ShopperS
simulate respectabiIity they are per
mittcd to pcrpetratc their SWindleS
with virtual impunity Banks solicit
his accounts. Newspapers are eager
to print his advertisements. PrOprie-
tors office buildings importune him
to become their tenant. The telegraph
and telephone companies furnish him
with every facility to thrive by theft.
Regular exchanges seldom punish
members who maintain underground
connections with the thieves of the
bucket-shoppinS class. And. as though
the immunity they enjoy were not 9TH
c1Nvise broad enough. the United states
affords to the Understanding thieves
frceSt use of the mails. albeit inVesti-
CATION by postal inspectors would in
variablN show up the fact that such
use Of the mails is fraudulent"

The Chatham Record reports a re-
lows:
"A most unusual mortgage was re-
comfy given by q cOlOred woman in
this county. A book agent was sell
ing her q book, and. as she could not
pay all cash. he suggested to take a
mortgage for the balance. She told
him that she had nothing to mortgage
except her little girl. The agent told
her he would take q mortgage on her
and she actually gave Il mortgage on
hcr girl"
We are at Il loss to interpret this
matter satisfactorily. The theory that
the lust for learning is so great in
Chatham that parents are willing to
risk the pledge of their children for
its satisfaction, is com piicatcd by the
we'll known penchant OF the negro
to mortgage anything for anything
else for the glory Of signing "a paper.
.>gain the action OF the agent in ac-
ccpting the collateral is open to re-
view. Thai he knew the type with
which he was dcalin" is evidenced
Ly the GlibncsS with which he sug-
Gcsted Il mortgage. What we do not
understand is why he did not suggest
the coon dog instead of the baby coon.
In the latter event he would have
made certain of the payment of the
huiancC of the purchase price. where
as he now appears to hold pledge
which is incapable of foreclosure both
as matter Of law and personal lnrli-
nation. With the rabbit season COM
ing on in the fall. the dos would have
given him Il lien on the family means
Of support. AS it is, he may be ask
&C to take the pickaninny.
It is very evident that somebody
has been badly 'donc" in this trans
action. Surely it was not the re-
Sourceful agent, We regret that the
Record tailed to state whether the
book was the only original account OF
the san Francisco disaster, whether
it had Il red cover. and the price at
which it was sold. Al! th>e things
enter into the CroSS-pUrpOScS of this
drama of barter and trade. But one
thing is certain: the agents security

follows of the President:

dent. 1t must be considered in its COM

PRESERVE THE HISTORY.

The suggestion OF Mr. w s. Prin-
rose that the memorial oration on the
tenth Of May be historical, was adopt
cd by the Ladies' Memorial Association
in several cities and towns in the state.
The result WAS that much valuable his
tory has been preserved. | { every Nc
mortal Day orator! had devoted himself
TO an accurate history of some battle
III which he participated OF sketch of
some soldier whose coura gcous deeds
brought him fame. there would have
been permanent contributions to the
most glorious page of the history Of
North Carolina. Instead many Of them
while temporarily pleasing have had
no permanent value.
In today'S paper Mr. Primrose
makes an admirable suggestion To the
effect that the State Librarian collect
all these historical addresses and that
they be published in permanent form
1t is happy suggestion and should be
carried out. We would like also to
enforce Mr.. Primrose's early sugges-
ton that Memorial Day addresses in
the future be historical There are
many brave Confederate soldiers
among US whose knowledge of i'm
portant historical facts will die with
them. They should be invited to
write that history and give as much of
the story as is suitable in a Memorial
Day address. The historical paper
should never be read as Il whole on

but it should all be published and pre-
