The Sale Of Whiskey.

How shall whiskey be sold or shall
there be no sale Of it at ALP! has been a
much discussed question. | have heard
serm Ons, lectures and speeches by men
and women on intemperance, but have
never heard one yet that | thought

men who drink whiskey Nothing has
ever been accomplished by abuse and
never will be. If you want people to
stop drinking whiskey don't abuse the
saloon, dispensary or the man who
drinks. but show to the man the effects
of Whiskey, not the evil effects of a
saloon. It's the WhiskeV and not the
saloon or the saloon man or the man

would get drunk and go home and do
things too bad to relate. His good wife
and friends would abuse him roundly
while he was intoxicated and abuse
him after he got sober He continued to
get drunk until one day he went home
drunk. His wife did not abuse him this
time but rather humOred him. The
drunken husband remarked that he was
not going to get drunk any more please
dear replied his wife 'don't say that.
for you know that whiskey has such
hold and control Of you that you can't
stop. You haven't the manhood to
stop. Can't stop! Haven't the self
control, the manhood.'
The sweet soft words of his wife
brought in question his courage and his
manhood. He saw the light-the effects
of whiskey. He has never touched a
drop since. Get the people to stop
drinking and you solve the question of
how to sell it.

The resignation Of Senator Sim
mons as State Chairman will be re-
GREETED by many, including those
who believe he has acted wisely and
who agree with the Senator that the
direction of the party campaign
should be left to some other than II
maker OF laws. When first elected to
the Senate, Mr. Simmons rendered
his resignation, but was persuaded
to continue until the new workings
under the suffrage amendment could
be established.
Chairman Simmons has served his
party and his State with signal abili-
ty and success as State Chairman.
He had great work to perform,

GROWTH OF MORALITY AND
DECENCY.

AS showing the growth of morality
and decency among the people the
Charlotte News records the following
something that perhaps could not
have been truthfullv written IL few
years ago:
In Charlotte on the Fourth $500
cotton mil operatives, from six differ
rnt mills, gathered together and held
holiday. Their employers mingled
freely with them and aided in the sue
cess of the occasion, thus showing
good feeling between workman and
employer. In all that host there
was not IL drunk, not ii fight, no pro-
ianlty; but good feeling, decency and
order. Somebody sent u 5O-gallon
barrel of beer to the picnic grounds
and the driver was told before he
unloaded it to carry it back where
1t .came from. Contrast this dry
town with some of the disgusting
scenes ON the same daV in wet towns

Mob Violence in Roanoke.
Norfolk Eirginian-pilot.


Resenting the treatment to which
one of their number is alleged to
have been subjected by Greeks, who
kept Il restaurant there, il crowd Of
''hoodlums" in Roanoke Saturday
night proceeded to attack the place
with bricks and other missiles. For
two hours the fusilade was kept up,
the police proving powerless to check
it. Finally. at the direction of the
mayor, an alarm of fire was turned
in and the firemen were instructed to
turn the hose upon the mob. Cries
of ''cut the hose" Immediately fol
lowed and the fremen were stoned.
If Roanoke has IL military company,
and we presume it has, it should
have been called out and the mob
dealt with as it deserved, il reports
of the disturbance be not eXagger-
ated. To temporiZe with a lawless
mob is to encourage lawlessnesS, to
bring all law and order into contempt

MISS HUI DA kUGHLER

There is a beauty and attractive
ness in health which is far greater
than mere regularity of feature.
A sicklv, irritable, and complaining
woman always carries a cloud of
depression with her; she is not only
unhappy herself but is a damper to
all JOY and happiness when with her
family and friends.
1t is the bright, healthy. vivacious
woman who always charms and carries
sunshine wherever she goes.
If a woman finds that her energies
are tagging and that everything tires
her; if her feminine system fails to
perform its allotted duties, there is
nervousness, sleeplessness, faintness,
backache, headache. bearing down
pains. and Irregularities, causing
constant misery and melancholia.
she should remember that Lydia e.
Pinkham's Vegetable COMPOUND

dispel all these troubles. By correct
ing the cause of the trouble it cures

Need of immigration.
Whining ton Messenger.

Wilmington Messenger.
The Manufacturers Record of last
week has ali article on the need of
immi grafton to the South. 1t takes
us it's text the address before the re-
cent meeting of the North Carolina
Bankers Association by Mr.. w. A.
Mclean, president of the Bank Of
LumbertOn. The article is chiefly a
summary of that address and an
emphasis OF the strong points made
therein, showing the need in this sec
ton Of more men on farm and in fac
tory. The most significant point in
the whole article is the statement
and its correctness is we'll known by
employers in this sectiOn-that with
IA certain class of labor the recent in
crease In wages is no incentive to la
bOrers to do more work; in fact il is
Il hindrance; for, as the Record says,
the average negro accustomed to
work four days in the week for dol
lar a day is not inspired to work a
whole week at dollar and half q
day.
The negro can now make money
enough ito keep him" by working
three or four days a week, and he
will do no more, for all he wants is a
bare living.
The Records article is a very full
exposition of the labor troubles in
our section and the means that are
being employed to overcome them.
OF two prominent movements along
this line it says:
For a solution Of this problem Mr..
Mclean looks to immigration, both do
nestle and foreign, and he points to the
marked success OF the Chadbourn enter
prise and of the plan of Messrs Hugh
MacRae 4 Co., of Wilmington, N. c., as
illustrations of what may be done
through properly direc ted efforts to in
crease the number OF W orkers IN agricul-
ture. But he nevertheless feels that the
only full remedy for the present ills, both
in agricultural and manufa curing lines,
is in bringing in for permanent settle
ment desirable class of foreign born.

Too Many Migrants.
Wilmington Messenger.


The Raleigh Times calls for more
rigid enforcement OF the vagraDcy
law in that city. 1t says with plac-
ards calling for labor posted in the
city, certain idle negroes lounge
about, ask for work on the premises
OF citizens aud after getting a square
meal 20 OFF, saying the work is too
hard or the pay offered is not enough
Such men are to be found in al
most every town in the South, and
they should be severely dealt with
Every man who wants to work can
find it, and at good wages too.
There is no excuse for n single able
bodied man i'm the South being idle
City and county officials should be
on the lookout all the time for va
grants and every one who is caught
should be sent TO the chain-gang
and be made to work. The fewer va
grants there are in a community the
less crime, especially stealing and
pilfering, there will be. Strict en-
forcement of the vagrancy law, how
ever, will not put a stop entirely to
lOafing by negro men, for many will
do just enough work to put them
selves within the law and escape con-
viction. They will work IL day in a
week and idle, living by stealing or
at some one else's expense for the
other six days. Enforcement of the
law will correct the evil to "a great
extent and put more laborers in the
field.
Migrants stand IL poor chance in
this city, we are glad to know Our
police are energetic in this matter,
and the mayor adds another hand
to the county road building force
every time the opportunity offers.
OF course they cannot catch all that
deserve to be sent to the roads, but
they do effective work along this line
