An elderly man stood near by read

that the event had turned out az Tom

A young girl came up the stairs and
walked along the platform. She saw

Several passengers alighted from tbs

up and down the platform.
The elderly man stepped to the edge
Of the platform and looked along The

He cleared his throat with q loud

Tree that Sheltered Hippocrates

Tree That SheIteFed HIDpOcFatea.
An immense plane tree on the island
or Cos, in the Aegean sea, is estimated
to be more than 400 years old. 1t
measures nearly eighteen yards in cir
conference. The lower branches, which
are still well preserved, have been
showed up by pieces of antique columns
and have grown over the ends of the
columns like caps. A solid marble

CLOSELY RELATED.

To some persons it may seem singu-
lar that so subtle and indefinabIe a
thing as sentiment should have n
marked effect on the business world
which, in it's nature, is far removed
from poetry or romance. Yet senti-
ment has long played a part in certain
phases of commercial life, and it will
be ever so. Without attempting an
analysis or a definition suffice it tosay
that sentimentand confidence are close
ly related and every one knows that
confidence is the ground rock upon
which credit is built. Sentiment and
confidence, therefore, enter largely into
our business activities and are the 81
lent forces that start the wheels of in
dustry and keep them moving.
We are seeing today an Illustration
of the effect OF sentiment on business.
While realtactors have appeared within
b last two weeks to improve financial
and commercial conditions-balance Of
trade, good crop reports and United
States court decisions-the public has
been moved by sentiment and people
have bee heartened by the very at
mesphere which brings a message that
bright times are ahead.
Optimism is in the air and the great
majority of earnest men engaged in
business pursuits are agreed that pros
perity is steadily returning. Let all
put their shoulder to the wheel and
speed it's coming.

SYSTEMATIC DECEPTION.

The Dingley tariff law became effec-
tive July "a, 1897, and it is therefore
nearly eleven years old. No other tariff
bill in the history of this country has
lasted SO long.
The long life of the Dingley bill has
not been due to it's inherent justice and
harmonious schedule. On the contrary,
1t is packed full of jobs. It was planned
by a wide variety of interests, to all Of
which the Republican party had be-
come indebted in the first Mckinley
campaign. These interests dictated
the terms of the bill, and for nearly
eleven years they have attended on the
earning of the plain people of the coun-
try. It has enabled the few to tax the
many numerically.
The long life of Dingleyism has been
due to a false notion bred from the pros
perity of the country. The beneficiaries
of the tariff have been busy in spread
ing the assertion that Dingleyism did
1t, and that general revision would put
an end to all this long-maintained pros
perity. The story Of last october ex-
posed the talsity of this systematic de-
ceptiof the people, and the men that
Dingleyism has systematically robbed
now see the truth. It stands out now
as big as a barn door. No one now
considers Dingleyism and Prosperity
mates. They are not in the same yoke.
They are in the same class. October
has opened the eye Of the people. It
has scattered and upset the sophistries
of the Dingleyites.

DISASTROUS POLICY.

Western corn, in carload lots, costs
at the delivery station here about
SIS cents, and the small farmer who buys
it today to feed to his stock probably
pays the home merchant 81 a bushel.
No farmer in this State lean prosper
who pays 81 a bushel for corn.
The cotton grower who is putting in
seed TOR the years crop should not ex-
pect to get price for his feecy product
tina viii enable him to buy a supply of
corn at 81 a bushel. An immense crop
OF corn was produced in the West last
year, and yet corn costs the small
farmer 81 a bushe1. 1t will probably
be worth as much a year from today.
Not even the big planter can afford
to buy corr in the West, paying feight
on it and various commissions. What
the big planter cannot afford to do
would be to the small farmer almost
disastrous.
No one is authorized to say that cot
ton will in a year lessened demand for
goods bring a great price. 1t probably
will not command more than 10 cents,
and a farmer who puts all his land in
cotton, neglecting to produce the corn
he needs is making q mistake. a serious
mistake.
After enough corn for farm consump-
ton has been provided for, then no mar
need limit his production of cotton
the more the better. But the growing
of cotton without GOD production ii
hazardous, unwise and probably debt
creating beforea another crop a b'
made. It is unpatriotic, for anything
that puts a farmer in debt to the mer
chant hurts the State and the genera
condition of the South.

A PERTINENT ENQUIRY.

Senator Johnston is endeavoring to
have the Senate direct the department
of commerce and laborto make inquiry
whether the United Fruit Company of
New Jersey is using any republic to the
of US as n shield to its monopo-
LIKING operations. 1t is a e2O, 600. 900
concern, and it controls today 80 per
sent Of the tropical fruit trade of this
country. Congressman Underwood in
troduced a similar resolution in the
House early in the session.
Congressman Underwood and Sena-
tor Johnston desire to know what kind
of a combine the United Fruit Compa
my of New Jersey is. It is freely as
serted that it has made the little repub-
lies of Central America its partners and
allies in such a way hat competition
in the production or export of tropical
fruits from those republics is impossi-
BILE except through the United Fruit
Company, which has thus become a
monopoly and a trust in restraint OF
trade.
But if Senator Johnston and Con-
gresham Underwood to put
an end to all combinations that handle
articles of foo they will find they have
accumulated business enough to last
them many a day. 1t is far easier to
say in what necessaries of life COM
bines do not exist than to attempt to
say in what they do exist, for COM
hines m~aDiDu!ate nearly all Of than
and no combine was ever formed in
the history of this world to put prices

NEGRO AND THE TURKEY.

"As a lawyer, I know the value OF
circumstantial evidence, and l know,
too, how easily it can be refuted some
times" observed w. B. Briggs, of
Baltimore, at the Raleigh last night,
while discussing a recent criminal
trial.
"And this reminds me of an incident
that occurred in Virginia last fall. I
was on my way home n evening.
when a typical, bright-faced Virginia
darkey, whom I l had known for a long
time, halted me with the offer to sell
me a turkey. He had the bird under
his arm, and I saw in the gathering
gloom that it was of good size and fat.
I asked him what sort of a turkey it
was, and he replied by asking me
what kind I wanted, 1 told him I
wanted a tame turkey. He told me
the turkey he had was just what I
wanted. I made a bargain and sem
the turkey homo by him. We had it
the next day for dinner. 1t was, in

Then I jumped at the conclusion nat
