We are not trying to take your liberty
away. The true rule for liberty is that
nothing shall be taken away from an
individual that is helpful to himself, his
family and society. But II the business
or the practice in which a person is en-
gagged does evil instead of good, and in
jures others as well as himself, and that
person has not force of character suff-
cient to desist from practlcing it him
self, then it becomes the duty of the
State to take awav from him that which
is a curse TO himself and to others. For
this reason the State prohibits the carry
ing of concealed weapons; prohibits
gambling; prohibits the buying of nor
phine-an poisons, because in the doing
of these things a man would not Only
injure himself but would. injure others.
The state has a right to grant the
privilege to persons to sell liquor. and
the State has the same right to take
away this privilege when it sees that
the sale Of whiskey is cursipg its citi-
zens, and in so doing the State is pro-
tecting the liberty of its citizens, not
taking their liberty away

railroads to establish these cheaper
rates. and realize ii we are to have
reasonable rates and good service. every
unnecessary expense is removed the net
returns to the railroad is increased and,
therefore, the smaller the gross charge
which it is necessary for them to make
in order to get a reasonable return up
on their investments.
Buying these 1000 and 2,000-mile
tickets, as compared with the purchase
Of ordinary,fares, is just like buying
" holesale and retail. The man who
buys wholesale gets it at a cheaper
price, but has to get delivery in large
quantities and in a less expensive way
han the man who is buying retail. For
instance, the man who is willing to buy
q crate of eggs and send to the depot
and get them, pays probably Is 20 IA
cents per dozen, while the man buying
a single dozen and asking the grocer to
deliver them at his house will likely
pay % to 80 cents per dozen.
"The cheap tickets offer t~ransporta-
ton at wholesale rates if one is willing
to use this transportation in such a way
as will enable the railroads 10 reduce
the expense of delivering it."-From
AZ Herald, Birmingham, Ala, April
3, 1908.

happy boys and girls. The bar-roon
fills it with ignorant, aimless, Law :ess
inmates. The school-house fills the pull
pit with educated, eloquent ministers of
the gospel and pews with godly men
and women. The still-house fills the
jail and penitentlaries with criminals
and murderers. The school-room sends
men to the Legislature, to the bench,
and the executive Office. The bar-room
sends them to the scaffold and hell. The
school-room gives to the community I'D
intelligent, thrifty, e~nterprising, re-
fined manhood and womanhood. The
bar-room gives to it thriftless, lawless,
ignorant, worthless citizenship. The
school-room carries light and knowledge
into the n0me and community. The
bar-room carries darkness and sorrow
and death into the home and commun-
ity. The school-room leads to higher
aud better things. The bar-room leads
to lower and bAser things. The school
room stands for the good, the bar, no, Ii
for the bad.
The people that multiply and rcplenish
the school-room and destroys the bar
room are building for their p~osterity a
future that will grow brighter and
greater as they continue to multiply
and replenish the school-room and ut
terly destroy the last trail of the bar
room. The people of North Carolina
have made wonderful strides in the last
few years in multiplying the school
rooms and in destroying the bar-rooms,
but the final conflict is just before them.
On the Goth of May, 1908, the final bat
tie is to be fought. Shalt the school
room or the bar-room triumph? On
that day every citizen must stand with
the school-roOm or the BARRON. He
must stand for the work of the school
room or the work of the bar-room

THE GOVERNOR
TALKS SENSE
States Chief ExecU-
tive Fully Answers
A Puerill Argument
of Whiskey Advo-
Gates.

The, foes to prohibition have laid
stress upon their argument that prohi-
bition would deprive the individual of
some Of his personal liberties. Cover
nor Glenn in answer to this in his
speech recently at Fuquay Springs. said:
''You whiskey men assert that if you
choose you could easily give up this
privilege; then, if that is so as you
know thousands of weak men cannot
break from this curse that is destroying
their homes and their lives and dissi-
pating every blessing, why wont you
give up this thing that is called your
liberty to save others from ruin, thus
practicing your Masters commandment
to love your neighbor as yourself, and
hslp those that are weaker than you?
II YOU have gone so far that the habit
has grown so strong on you that you
cannot give it up, don't you think it
high time that this liberty be taken
away in order that you may be saved.
"They say that prohibition will take
away your liberty. Liberty to do what:
Liberty to get drunk, to neglect and de-
sert your families, to take provisions
away from those dependent upon you.

Horse Shoe.

Without doubt, the question of heav-
lest import now iminent in the state of
North Carolina is that of prohibition to
be decided by her voters on the 26th
Of May. Surely this question hangs
upon an unbiased conscience after true
deliberatlon; if so. the daydawned of a
higher morality, letter business qualif-
cations, shorter inexpensive criminal
dockets, a higher minded regard for
education and better schools, fewer
whiskey debauched tastes among the
boys and less shame in our churches and
less restitution and disc0rd i'm many
homes, is already beginning to brighten
q homeland. But each voting pre-
cinct respectively is as much RESPONSE
BILE for the final outcome of this ques-
tion as if it alone were responsible for
the great and final result,
Will anyone who is Christian or hu-
name remain al home on voting day and
trust to the other fellow? Surely not.

Nesbit Approves
Mileage Book Plan

W. D. Nesbit, associate railroad COM
missioner of Alabama, urges the travel
ing puplic to cooperate with the rail-
roads in putting into effect their mile
age book system.
81 note considerable criticism in the
papers of the plan the railroads have
adopted in putting on sale their 1000
and 2,000-mile, 2-cent, interchangeable
tickets, - said Mr.. Nesbit.
"There seems to be complaint on &C
count of the fact that these tickets have
to be exchanged at the ticket offices for
the regular card tickets, and are not ac-
cepted by train conductors except from
stations where regular tickets are not
on sale.
without a full understanding of the
situation this requirement of the rail-
roads might be considered arbitrary and
unnecessary. As a matter of fact, how
ever, the requirement is one made In
order to save expense in the bookkeep-
ing and accounting departments of the
railroads. Where the mileage strips
are taken by conductors on the trains
from books sold by n road and good
on several roads, special reports have
to be made by tie. conductors IN &C.
count Of this mileage, and special
settlements made between the railroads.
Under the plan adopted by the rail-
roads this mileage comes only through
the regular ticket Offices and hence re-
quires a much simpler form of account
ing and bookkeeping, and reduces the
clerical force necessary to handle the
business. Is also reduces the posi-
bility of errors by conductors in tearing
mileage and enables them to handle
their passengers much more expedi-
tiously, and, therefore, gives them
more time for attention to the running
of their trains.
