TIE ATE BILL.

It is probable that the railroad
rate bill will reach a vote in the
Lower House of Congress today.
When the bill reaches a vote it is
believed that it will receive practi-
cally the unanimous vote of both
parties. The members Of the COM
mittee that reported the measure
have practically agreed that there
shall be no amendments tackled on
In the House. Some Of the mem.
bers want an amendment to the bill
providing the right Of an appeal to
the courts from a ruling of the rate
commission, pending which appeal
the rate fixed by the Commission
shall be suspended. In such case the
new rate could be delayed several
years by keeping the case in court.
1t Is the opinion OF many in
Washington that should the oppo
nents Of the bill in Congress win a
victory on any material feature in
volved that the President would
veto the bill and probably. call an
extra session of Congress to make
the fight again.

One Democrat Protests,

Webster's Weekly, printed at
Reidsville, n. c., and Democratic to
the core, is not very favorably i'm
pressed with the Watts and Ward
provisions, Or at least, the way State
officers are enforcing these laws.
Col. John r. Webster, the editor,
says:
''The revenue officers cut up two
blockade stills in the neighborhood
of Prices last week. Is itnot pass
ing strange that neither Sheriff Pin
nix nor any Of his deputies can find
any of these hell holes? Hogan,s
Creek, in the vicinity of Ruffin, it is
said, would furnish them fruitful
field were they disposed to try their
hand along this line. It is their
sworn duty to see that the law
against this nefarious traffic is exc
cusen the same as that against theft.
murder and arson.''

ception. State officers are not in
clined to these Democratic temper
ance measures and handle them as
gingerly as they would the business

THE WARD LAW.

"Hhere are those men who said If
the Watts bill ard the Ward bill
passed corn would be % cents per
bushel or less? Corn Is mighty
hard to get in those parts at so and
20 cents per bushel, and yet those
bills have been in force for months
We have a chrome for any one Of
those fellowsw who made that state
ment and who will honestly sand
up ard tell the difference between
themselves and Ananias. "-Moeks-
Vile Courier.
We never heard any one say that
the price Of corn would be twenty
five cents or less If The Ward bill
was pissed. But if any one did say
so they could now explain by stating
that four blockade stills have gone
up in the woods for every one the
Ward and Watts law closed down,
and Of course these blOckaders must
use corn TO run their stills. And he
could state further that the reason
the "moonshiEers" flourish Is, that
the Ward and Watts law crowd will
not assist the Revenue officers in
looking up the business. Aud it is
seldom they will even give informa-
ton as to the location Of such stills.

from the editorial columns Of the

wasn't at the Democratic convention
in Greensboro two years ago? And
the editer Of the Dispatch should re-
sign his fat Office, to show the peo-
pie that he is not hungry for pie.

Party Loyalty.
Daily Industrial News.

The time. worn story Of the man
who cut off his nose to spite his face,
may never in fact have occurred, but
the moral is obvious, and applies di-
rectly to political affairs.
A political party is built upon GER
tain principles aud theories of gov
eminent, but the concrete working
force Of the party must act through
the organization which is formulated
and organized for the purpose of fur
thering the doctrines of the party.
Without organization a party be-
comes merely collection of indi-
viduals who perhaps have many
ideas in common but who are power
less to accomplish anything for want
of that unity of action which is all
important. And just here is where
the moral Of our opening sentence
applies. The man who bites off his
nose to spite his face-the man who
seeks to disrupt his party because of
some fancied-or even some real
grievance against the organization
and its chosen leaders, is pursuing a
most unreasoning and foolish course,
and is simply playing into the hands
Of his party's enemies.
The Republican party is built
upon great fundamental principles
VI 50vvfa..as.-e sszh :oh q ro hipoar and
more enduring and more important
than any man or set of men, and the
members Of the Republican party
should stand loyalty by their party
and not seek to cripple the party
simply because they may have a per-
sonal dislike for some man in the
party.

All the News.

A country exchange has this to
say about printing all the news:
"a man stopped us on the street
the other day and said we did not
publish all the news. We should
say not. In the first place there's
somebody else depending upon us
for a living. IF we publish all that
happened we would be with the
angels. In order to please the peo-
pie we must print only the nice
things said of them and gossip.
Yes, it's fact, we don't print all
the news. If we did, wouldn't it
be spicy reading? But it would be
for one week only. The next week
you would read our obituary, and
there would be new face in heaven.

line:
"Had the legislature applied the

last few years to crsating new offices

would not now be confronted with
the deplorable condition that exists
