The Drink Curse.

The following facts are written on a
blackboard in the civil court room,
placed there by members Of the A. r.
P. Church who worshipped at the
courthouse Sunday. relative to the
evils of intemperance:
annual drink bill, 81, 245, 000, 600.
One bushel of corn makes 4.46 gal.
Ions Of Whiskey, which retails at $18. 80.
The United States gets $5. 40.

The laborer gets 40.
The distiuer gets "a. so.
The retailer gets $6.9 I.
The transportation company gets
$1.25.
The consumer gets drunk.
The children gets rags.
The wife gets wretchedness."
There is nothing to be added to the
above. It is a fearful story, complete
in itself; and, withal, q strong plea for
prohibition.-Charlott News

An examination of the Official
returns from Buncombe county,
on file in the Office of the Secre-
tary of State at Raleigh, shows
that in the late election for Con-
gress in the Tenth District 100
votes too many were credited J. j.
Britt, Republican. The total
should have been for him in Bun
combe 2,4S2 in place of 1852 and
the : mistake was made in
addition by the Buncombe can
vassers. This increases Hon. w.
T. Crawford's majority by 100
votes. It is supposed the State
Board of Canvassers will correct
the record.

Good roads, good school houses
and good church buildings are the
things which every citizen should
advocate for their county at all
times. The two former necessi-
ties are rapidly adjusting them
selves, but the road question has
been sorely neglected, mainly on
account of the demagogery of pea
nut politicians, seeking political
preferment at the expense of pub
lie improvements. It is now time
for sane people to act with consid-

uals in this enlightened age. Let

Is Disease a Crime +?

Not very long ago., q popular magazine
published an editorial article in which
the writer asserted, in substance, that all
disease should be regarded as criminal.
Certain it is, that much Of the sickness
and suffering of mankind Is due to the
violation OF certain of Natures laws.
But to say that all sickness should be
regarded as criminal, must appeal to
every ~eaSonab individual as radically
wrong.
It would be harsh, unsympathetic.

he is ready to fay Blackburn in

The democrats of the tenth dis
