A particularly burning ques
tion now before the American
people is the regulation of air
ships. When the Legislature
gets through regulating rail-
road rates it might pass a law
forbidding an airship to settle
o. a mans turnip patch or flow
er garden or TO sail close
enough to the top Of your huose
to carry off your chimney.
Maybe this can wait until the
next. Iegular session, but it will
certainly have to be attended
To. This thingof the needless
landing ofairships on spots you
are most anxious TO guard is
getting to be a nuisance. 1t is
ridiculous. And they ought To
be made to pay for right of'waN

The election on prohibitio
which will be held on the last
Thursday in April will be tie
second election ON prohibition
ever held in North Caroline. At
the former election, which was
held In 1881, prohibition was de-
fsa'OI by HOOP votes. One
prominent feature of that cleo
ton, which will be eliminated
from the election next April, was
the negro vote. which was cast
almost solidly against prohibi-
ton. The prohibition sentiment
ias gained such ground since tn.
lection in 1881 that no one ques
ions now that the result of the
August election win be- a great
victory for prohibition.

far made to throw ordinary
safeguards around the tying
up has failed. Getting married
over there is as easy AS lying,
but once you get married you
are married for keeps. With
this latter provision we have no
quarrel, but the fact that such
high appreciation is shown OF
the sacredness. of :he
marriage relation when
once entered into makes
it all the more strange that it
may be entered into so lightly
if there is anything against
your getting married here all
you have to do is to step over
the line. It's so easy that you
may feel like there is something
horribly illegal about it, but
you are married all right.
Very much so 1t is against the
law in this State for whites and
indians to intermarry. 1t may
be against the law in South
Carolina, for all we know, but
down in this part of the vine
yard you can't always tell to a
dead moral certainty that GER
tain Croatans are not whites or
that certain whites are hot
Croatans. If a white man and
Il Croatan woman want to marry
they try first, maybe, to run it
over the register ofdeeds, and,
failing that, maybe they go to
South Carolina. They can't
come back to this county and
live if they do that, and per
haps it is none of our funeral SO
Ear as instances of this kind are
concerned. A couple of that
kind tried to procure license
from Register Bullock some
time ago, and when he refused
the would-be-groom saidi it did'I
matter much-he'd get her any
way, and for aught we know
they HE'D them across the line
and said the few necessary
words.
