New Orleans, March 15.-An
appeal to all Southerners to stand

part:
eff the railways of the South
are to be brought up to the stand

business of Southern communi-
ties, the people of the South must
be actuated by the same spirit of
corporation they showed in the

business career with the railways
Of the South, I know the resources
Of its railways will be taxed to
the utmost to provide the addi-
tional facilities that will be re-
quired. The provision of these

date is of individually more i'm
portance to the South than any
possible rate reduction, or any

HIGH DUTY OF THE PEOPLE.
Some Suggestions Which All Good, Pa
tTiotic Citizens Should Take to Heart.

tTiotic Citizens Should Take to Heart.
1t appears to US that there is a
healthy sentiment in this COM
munity at this time III favor of
laying aside differences of opin-
ion upon subjects which the city
administration cannot effect and
which are in that sense abstract,
and selecting a board of aldermen
Of first-class busihess men, capa-
BILE of graphing with the grave
problems which confront the city.
This is a sentiment which should
be fostered-which every we'll
wisher of Charlotte should strive
to promote. It would be worse
than idle, it would be foolish, for
Us to try to conceal from our
selves the fact that our financial
affairs are not in good condition
and that it is imperative that
something be done to improve the
situation. And end must come
at some time to the issuance of
bonds to raise money to meet cur
rent expenses, else the city will
ultimately find itself in the case
Of an individual who might, in
stead of paying his monthly bills
out of his income, give his notes
for them. His early finish would
be inevitable. Things need tc be
done the doing of which would
call for money. For instance,
everybody clamors for good streets
and few stop to reflect that we
have not the money with which to
lay them.
What is here said is intended
only to be suggestive-there Is no
thought of outlining any policy
and this suggestion is that in each
ward all differences of opinion be-
tween citizens be forgotten and
the people get together in a spirit
Of high patriotism and select their
aldermen wholly with reference
to their business ability; their
ability to solve the problems,
present and Immediately pros
pective. Very many of the most
capable men will shrink from SER
vice on the board of aldermen.
It is q time when, if called upon,
they should sacrifice their conven-
fence and comfort and lend them
selves to the service of the city.
This is no time to reward friends
or punish enemies, but the hour
has struck and, this period, when
we are taking on larger growth, is
the time for every man, ~forgetful
of all else, to resolve to try to do
something for Charlotte. He can
do that by voting, not for his
friend, not against his enemy,
but fol the mon in his ward most
capable to sit in the board of al
dermen at a critical period in the
city's history-a period when the
very best ability of the citizen
ship is demanded.-Charlo t t q

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
er strength than other makes.
