A Wilson Jury Settles Brandy Case.

SHOULD RAISE HOME SUPPLIES
FIRST.

A writer in the Mount Airy News
suggests that law be passed max
ing it a misdemeanor for a farmer
to offer for sale more than 500
pounds of tobacco a season.
We do not endorse any such meas
ure. But we would be tempted to
endorse a proposition making it a
misdemeanor for any one to raise
tobacco or cotton. who failed to raise
sufficient supplies for the home
Every farmer should first raise
enough corn, meat, peas, hay and po-
tatoes for home consumption before
raising any crops to sell. The per-
son who has to convert his cotton
and tobacco money into corn and
meat-the same is not prosperous
farmer. Of course, after providing
for supplies needed in the home, then
the farmer should raise all the cot
ton, tobacco and other money crops
chat he possibly can.

PRESIDENT AT WORK ON MES
SAGE.
Document Will Not Be Long, but
Will Be a Clear Statement of the
COuntry's Needs.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 30
President Taft has begun the first
draft on his message to Congress,
so it was said to-day. Senators and
Representatives who have talked
with him on the several subjects
which will make up the message say
that the President will not infiict
upon Congress a "book" rather a
decidedly clear, comprehensive state
ment of what, in his judgment, the
country needs in the way of legisla-
ton. Just what the country needs
the President outlined in his speech
es to the people during his recent
Swing around the CIRCLE
It is known that President Taft
stands committed to the "Roose-
welt policies" but the policies are to
be carried out as Mr.. Taft under
stands them. This means, say those
who have discussed the policies with
the President, that the laws govern
ing the policies are to be followed
and if the laws interfere then the
President will recommend amend
ments necessary to make the social
ed Roosevelt policies" effective.

TAFT AND THE MINT JULEP.

A great deal has been said and
printed about the mint julep" cpl
sode on the occasion OF the recent
visit OF President Taft TO Macon. Ga,
where he was the guest in a private
as much silly gable
has found currency In a class Of in
different newspapers as the Fair
banks cocktail incident" provoked.
The following references to the
subject are taken from the Macon
Telegraph of recent date. and seem
to cover the case beyond further
policy:
THE facts are these: While
the gentlemen of the party were
standing in the hallway just be-
fore entering the breakfast room
a servant passed the mint juleps.
The President declined, as some
others did. A distinguished Geor-
gian, himself guest, just then
engaging him in conversation re-
marked to the President that
the mint julep was peculiarly
| Southern beverage, and said
| something of it's component
| parts. Then it was that the
| guest of honor took the glass in
| his hand and looked rather Gu
riously at it. passing it back.
That was all. No one urged him
mo gentle people of the South
or elsewhere, ever insist upon
guest eating or drinking any
thing after they have once de-
clined. The proprieties were
certainly understood and OBJ
served on the occasion named.
That super-surveillance and
espionage of the President Of the
/ United States, or any other free
American citizen, which assumes
to direct what he shall taste and
= not taste, when he enters the
home of a friend, or his own
home, is a modern form of that
Pharisaism which followed Jesus
up and down the earth and which
was often rebuked by Him: For
1 John the Baptist came neither
eating nor drinking wine; and
ye say of him, he hath a devil.
The Son of Man is coming eat
ing and drinking; and We say,
Behold a gluttonous man and a
wine bibber'"

Thanksgiving Praises.

The reporter has read several
poems on Thanksgiving this year,
but the following poem, sent to Mr..
A. V. Dockery by Mr.. VIM. B. Powell,
of Pennsylvania, who was a member
of the National Farmers Congress,
held in Raleigh some weeks ago, is
the best original poem we have seen
this season:
I'VE thank the Lord for blessings
given,
For joys of earth, for gifts from
Heaven,
And swell our hearts with grateful
praise
For length of years and length of
days,
And thank Him for His blessings
rare,
And for His kind and loving care.
We send our thanks on wings of
love
To Him who reigns in realms above
And from whose hands all bless
ings flow,
That cheer and bless mankind be-
low.
Let saints rejoice and angels sing,
And all the world with anthems
ring;
Let hills and dales and all resound
With praises DER the world around.
Let great and small and all rejoice
And all proclaim, with solemn voice
Their gratitude for joy and wealth
And for their strength and for their
health.
Let all mankind most grateful be
And sing their praise from land to
sea
To Him who reigns DER sea and
land,
And holds the oceans in His hand
And stays their flow, as by a wand
While worlds obey at His command

Following the passage of the tariff

and preparations are now being made
for the distribution of blanks to the
various corporations throughout the

MoREHEAD MAKES STATEMENT.

Appointment Was Not Revoked
Does Not Believe Chief End Of
Member of Congress to Be the
Naming of a Census Supervisor.
Charlotte, Nov 2S.-The Char
lotte Observer of the Gath has the
following under the caption. Never
Thought Of Resigning":
John II. Morehead, of Spray, rep
resentative in Congress OF the Fifth
District, is spending a day or two in
the city with his sister. Mrs. Sim
mons B. Jones.
Mr. Morehead was asked yesterday
about the appointment of David II.
Blair, of Winston-Salem, Supervisor
of Census for the Fifth District, and
the reported threat by him to resign
his seat in Congress in case the nom
ination of Professor Glasson, OF
Trinity, was confirmed.
Mr.. Morehead's reply was most
positive:
There was and never has been
anything to the story, which was a
fabrication from the whole cloth
/. that l would resign my seat in Con
gress should this man, or that man
or any other man, be appointed SUI
pervisor of census in the fifth District
| in the place of some one l might
prefer and indorse. And to make
the story even more palpable, it was
said that l threatened to resign tt
the President. That is too prepos
| ferrous to even discuss.
II do not now and never did be
lieve the chief aim and object Of ;
member of Congress to be the nam
ing of a census supervisor.
Did this matter concern me alone
no issue would be taken by me will
/ this phase of the case, but inasmucl
as the real import and purpose o
such reports and comments are il
the nature of an endeavor to dis
credit the President for yielding t.
my request for reconsideration o
the appointment of census supervis
or in my district, I take cogniZanc
of it, The idea of resigning neve
for one moment occurred to me.
my Republicanism is too wei
: founded to be overturned by m
failure to secure this particular, o
any other appointment, however vic
lently such failure might encroac
upon my supposed perogative."
: Mr.. Morehead added that he ha
positively denied the story when
; was first started, but that no after
ton was given that denial in certai
quarters.

GOVERNOR CONFER REPUDIATED.

Last Monday the citizens OF Ala
bama voted on a proposition TO make
the State forever dry. The latest re-
turns from the election indicate that
the measure was defeated by over
$4,000 majority.
1t was proposed to adopt Consti-
tutional prohibition amendment so
that liquor could never again be sold
IN the State, and to make easier the
searching of homes and other private
places for liquor. We believe that
the proposed amendment also pro-
hibited anyone keeping even a small
amount of whiskey in their private
homes.
The State already has one Of the
most stringent prohibition laws OF
any State in the Union and even many
of the strong supporters Of the form
or prohibition measure thought the
proposed Constitutional Amendment
too drastic. and argued that it would,
In the end. defeat prohibition in that
State. The defeat of the amendment
also means the reputation of Cover
nor Conner and Judge Weakly, the
author of the bill. 1t was charged
that the movement was a political
one, and that Gov. Conner and Judge
Weakly were trying to build up a
political machine in order to absO-
Iutely control the politics of the
State and to make the Judge the neX1
Governor of Alabama.
