place at the home of Marshall Alb

performed in the parlor, which was
attractively decorated in white, the
room having been previously dark

ness to the scene, and there were
present large number of relatives
and friends to witness the impress
sive ceremony. About forty guests
were met at the door by Misses Katie
Abbott and Eva Leathers. The pres

rheumatism.

More than nine out Of every ten
cases Of rheumatism are simply
rheumatism of the muscles, due to
cold or damp, or chronic rheuma-
tism. In such cases no internal
treatment is required. The free ap-
plication Of Chamberlain's Liniment
Is all that Is needed, and 1t is cer-
tain to give quick relief. Give It a
trial and see for yourself how quick
ly 1T relieves the pain and soreness.
The medicines usually given inter-
nally for rheumatism are poisonous
or very strong medicines. They are
worse than useless in cases Of chron-
ic and muscular rheumatism. For
sale by j. w. Bell, Walhalla; w. J.

The bill to increase the Cover
nor's salary, which passed the
Senate, failed in the House.
The Committee having the mat
ter under consideration reported
unanimously against it, so the
present Chief Executive must
live on $4,000, or '"go begging"
The Hustler believes that all the
state officers who are required to
live in Raleigh should be paid de-
cent salaries and the bill ought
have passed. Governor Kitchin
ought to receive as much salary
while he is Governor as when he
served the people in congress.
But the General Assembly de-
crees otherwise and that settles
the matter.

THE PANAMA SCANDAL.

Closing a lengthy editorial
anent the charges and counter
charges in the Panama Canal
affairs the Charlotte News says:
From the first intimation of
corruption in Canal affairs The
News has urged the necessity
fer a thorough and searching in
vestigation. 1t concurs heartily
with the Sun in the further de-
mand for light on all the differ
ent phases of canal transactions.
Prominent men have been
accused. If they are innocent it
will not be a difficult task to- es-
tablish the fact, and certainly
they should desire to have their
names divorced from all suspic-
ion.
THE canal belongs to the
government. 1t was purchased
by taxes of the people There
is no reason why a policy of con-
cealment should be continued.
Mr.. Rainey is not the first to
charge corruption. If his accu-
sations and those lodged by
other parties, are unfounded, let
the congress of the United States
establish the fact.
Nothing but a thorough in
VeStigation will suffice to Quell
the suspicion that has gained
daily relative to canal trans
actions"
To all of which we desire to
add our assent. After so much
smoke the people are beginning
to believe that there is fire some.
where. and for the good of the
country we should all like tc
know it's location.

The proposed change in the

able excitement. 1t is well that
our people are forced to begin to
think about this important mat

there should be a general awak-
ening on the subject. If the pro-
posed plan is not the best, it is

will result in some plan that viii
improve our public highways.

lNBPH0LE N THE LAW.


We quote from the Yadkinville
Ripple:
"Atthe meeting of the board
of county commissioners of Yad-
kin county on the first Monday
in January, NJ. Glenn Williams,
throughshis attorney, r. C. Pur-
year, obtained retail license to
sell liquor IN this county for the
next II months, at Williams. It
is true that the license only auth
oriezs him TO sellto.those persons
mentioned in the bill, but he
evidently thinks he has a good
thing or he would not have paid
the pHce-$200-for the privil-
eye to sell for a year"
That partofthe law referred
to. and on which Mr.. Williams
attorney.is said to have based
hisapplication for this license, is
section 4 of chapter Il, laws of
1903 which is as follows:
Sec. The place where de-
livery of any intoxicating liquors
is made in the state of North
Carolina should be construed and
held to be fireplace of sale there
OF, and any station or other place
within said State to which any
pers0hsshal ship or convey any
Intoxicating liquors for the pur-
posesOfd delivering or carrying the
same to a purchaser shall be con-
strued TO be the place of sale:
Provided, that nothing in this
shall be construed to prevent the
delivery of any intoxicating
liquor to any licensed and regis
tered pharmacist in sufficient
quantities for medical purposes
only"
Whether or not it was the in
tention of the trainers and sup
portera of the law to prevent
Mr.. Williams disposing of his
whiskey at all, we are not pre-
pared to say, but if the action
really entities him to the priv.
leGehe asserts, and does so by
accident, we submit that he has
selected an awfully dangerous
time to throw any floral offerings
at himself.
Commenting on the situation
the Ripple says further:
we favor temperance ano
sobriety, but we submit that we
have failed as yet to see any
merit in this prohibition measure
which we were told would do Sc
much for the country.
While it must be admitted thai
the liquor traffic is not in an idea
state in North Carolina, it mus
also be borne in mind that a per.
feet control of the situation in 81
short a time as has elapsed since
the Statewide law went int
effect would be nothing short Of
miraculous. we cannot begin tt
agree with our contemporary
that we have failed as yet tx
see any merit in the PROPOSE
ton. Given a reasonable time il
which to secure the momentum
of It's operation, we believe i'm
proVement will demonstrate it
