Difference Between Prohibition and
Temperance.
Wilmington Messenger.

Wilmington Messenger.
Some one has defined the difference
between an advocate of temperance
and one of prohibition to be that
the former applies the principle to
himself as well as to all others and
the latter advocates it only for the
benefit of the other fellow. But of
course there are exceptions to the
latter clause Of the rule, as there are
some prohibitionists who are true
temperance people, but with many
prohibitionists the theory is to keep
the other poor devil from running
himself with drink while the advocate
of the principle can take his toddy
comfortably at his sidehOard behind
drawn blinds, of an original pack
age shipped across the State line,
which cannot be touched by State
anti-saloon regulations.

ABOUT THE STOCK LAW.

The Carthage Blade notes from Pc
riiions filed with the county commits
sioners that the stock law sentiment
is growing in Moore county. 1t is
only q question OF time when the en-

will be included in the stock law. 1t
will gradually extend until it will
cover this entire section and eventu-
ally the whole State.-Sanford tx

And the sooner the better for all
concerned. 1t has been the expert

suited in more stock and better stock
(cattle and hogs particularly more
beef and pork, and OF better quality,
and more milk and butter than under
the old system, and both land owner

OF prejudice at first, as there always
is against any innovation or reform,
but when once the stock law has
been tried the man who would under

We are glad to see that Senator
Holt has introduced Il resolution
against the State receiving the ST.,
500 agreed by the Governor that the
railroads shonlh pay into the public
treasury to aid in paying the ex-
penses Of the special session OF the
Legislature and of the cost OF the
railway rate cases. The resolution
should never have gone to committee;
it should have been adopted unani-
mously as soon as introduced. We
think it would be a disgrace to the
State were it to accept that money,
and in order to set the State alright
in the matter the Legislature should
without a moments hesitation. have
repudiated that part OF the Cover
nor's agreement with the railroads.
We sincerely hope the Holt resolu-
ton will be adopted

from the blow, but is still speechless. "
1t is true the Governor has not made
q speech since the holding of the
Democratic legislative caucuses on
Tuesday night OF last week. He re-
ceived a solar plexus blow on that
occasion. To his surprise the Demo
:rats of the Legislature are unwilling
to violate the party platform on die
tation from the Governor or any
other party leaders. The Democrats
of the Legislature believe in the
party sticking to party principles
This seems to have been surprise to
some Democrats who seem to think
that party platform are made for
the benefit OF politicians and office
seekers.

And while prohibition may have
nothing to do with it there are those
who are drawing n comparison be
tween crime in Durham before pro-
hibition, sO-called, and crime there
underpresent conditions. Wedonot
believe the liquor question enters into
it one way or the other, but it cam
not be denied that crime seems to be
, rampant in Durham ana othpr places
where liquor is not allowed to be
sold legally as we'll as i'll places where
it is-and "people will talk" The
great trouble is that the law is not
rigidly enough enforced. Crime is
too lightly punished. There is too
much maudlin sentiment and SYM
pathy for the criminal when it comes
to applying the penalty for wrong
doing.
