Musical Treat Last Friday Evening.
Contributed.

Contrlb uted-
At the Church OF the Holy Innocents.
Friday evening. June 10th, the choir rem
dered in a most creditable manner. The
Vision of st. john a Cantata nv C..
Whitney Coombs, text selected from the
21st Chapter of the Book OF Revelation.
The first solo, 81 Saw a New Heaven
and New Earth was sung by Mrs. D.
Y. Cooper, Jr., in her clear, strong voice,
and the theme of the whole Cantata.
"Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Al
mighty" sung by a quartette could be
heard woven in and around the solo.
God Shall Wipe Away all Tears" was
Mrs. Pendleton's solo, which was in ac-
cord with her deep, rich contralto notes
The trio, Miss Lamb, Mrs. Harris and
Mrs. Pendleton.) They Shall Hunger No
More" was one OF the most attractive
numbers and when Mr. Kimball added
his full bass notes the harmony was
complete.
Mr. Richard Jones has a plaintive,
sympathetic voice, and his solo, II Will
Give Unto Him That is Athirst, of the
Water OF Life" was enjoyed by all, and
the melody was perfect when Miss Lamb
Joined her sweet notes with his.
The last solo, "Thus Came Unto Me
One of the Seven Angels, and Carried Me
Away in Spirit, to Great High Noun
tain" was given by Miss Lamb, who
sang as usual, in her rich, musical, bird
like voice.
The keynote of the Cantata was Mrs.
Cooper's solo and from that beginning on
every part through the triumphant cho-
rus following Miss Lambs solo, to the
grand climax, of the hymn. 'Holy, Holy,
Halry l nr1 Cod inht - tho 10 to-
was a success, and most creditable to the
director, Mrs. Hughes, who also played
the accompaniment sustaining her state
wide reputation as an organist.
The resonant tones Of the violins, and
the sweet silver notes of the cornet,
blending with the voices, strengthened
the harmony of the whole.
The choir was led by the following lit
tie boys: Tom Skinner Kittrell, crucifer;
David Jackson Cooper, John Hilliard
Zollicoffer, James Tyler, Harlee Estes
Arthur Tyler, Boyd Kimball, Whitmel
Swain.
The sopranos were: Mrs. d. Y. Cooper,
Jr., Mrs. Chavasse, Miss Cooper, Miss
Hunter, Mrs. c. A. Harris, Miss Lamb.
Mrs. Perry, Mrs. Pendleton. Mrs. Strause,
and Miss Maria Tucker.
The altos were: Miss Haigh, of Fayette-
vile, Mrs. Sydney Cooper, Mrs. Faucet,
and Mrs. J. T. Thomas
Tenors: Mr.. S. P Cooper and Mr.
Richard Jones'
Bassos: Messrs. Chavasse, of England i,

First violin, Mrs Alex Cooper.
Second Violin, Mr.. R. G. S. Davis.

The rector, Rev. l. W. Hughes, imme-
diately after the professional, (516),
opened with prayers, and the service end

the occasional.
This Cantata was the second musical

II the North Carolina 4 per cent
bonds were so attractive an invest
ment, why did not some OF the carp
ing critics OF some OF the takers bid for
them? Too late to talk and criticise
now. Governor kitchin and Treas
urer Lacy did their best to float the
bonds, but without the cooperation
OF the American Tobacco Company,
business men and bankers all OF their
efforts would have been in vain, and
the Legislature would have been con-
vened to meet our obligations or de-
fault. All honor to those who have
stood by their native State and
downed Carlisle and his crowd, we
say.
In an article in the News and OBJ
server Sunday f. J. Justice writes
some about the purchase OF million
dollars of North Carolina bonds last
week by the American Tobacco Com
pany. He says he wants to "call at
tention to the fact that this pur-
chase was at price that will yield
the purchasers of these bonds mar
gin of profit as soon asany first-class
securities of any State or city are in
demand" Then why did not Mr..
Justice and those who think as he
does take this million dollars worth
of bonds, and keep the hand OF the
Dukes out of the transaction alto
gether? Failing in that, whether
through inability to command the
cash or lack of sentimental motives
OF State pride and patriotic spirit
does not matter, criticism OF those
who did comes in bad taste it strikes
US. Further on Mr.. Justice says:
Gone of the threatened dangers to
this State now is the spread OF the
Tobacco Company spirit, and sub
serviency to the interests, that thrift
may follow fawning." No, no; we
have a better opinion of North Caro-
Iinians than that. We do not believe
they are ready to "sell out" for a
million dollars-or any other sum
to the American Tobacco Company
or any other individual or corpora
ton.

NEW LEADER APPEARS.

From the Washington Times of the
9th inst, we take the following which
appeared under the above caption.
This pleasing reference to Senator
Overman Will beread with interest by
the friends of the distinguished gen.
tleman, and by none more so than
the people of Henderson and Vance
county. Says the Washington Times:
4 new Democratic leader is develop
Overman OF North Carolina. lie has
figured more prominently during the
last two months than any Democrat
on the floor That is to say, he has
obtained more results.
1t was he who q few weeks ago in
itiated the tilibuster against the
Lodge resolution asking for $4,000
with which to pursue the cost of liv-
ing inquiry. He convinced his Demo-
cratic associates that the movement
OF the Massachusetts man was design
ed to provide the Republican party
with campaign material. Before the
tilibuster had proceeded ten days,
Senator Lodge withdrew his bill.
The latest legislative achievement
tOthe credit of Senator Overman was
his success in putting through the
anti-iniunction amendent to the rail
road bill. This prohibits the FEEDER
al courts from interfering with the
judgments of the State courts with
out due notice and a hearing This
resolution was presented as a sur
prise and its adoption was a complete
shock in some quarters.
Just now when the Democrats are
looking for floor leader to succeed
Senator Money, who Is to retire next
March, Overman looms up big. This
is true in spite of the prominence of
Senators Bailey, Rayner. and Bacon,
all of whom are discussed for the floor
leadership of the minority.

Prohibition and Politics.

To the editor of the Gold Leaf: Since
the dark days OF reconstruction, at no
period, has there been more restlessness,
discomfort and turmoil permeating the
people of North Carolina, than at the
present time. AS there have been more
special sessions of courts ordered to try
violators Of law, it is evident that crime
and lawlessness are stalking broadcast
over the land. Apart from this democrat
ization, the tightness Of the times, re-
sulting from the financial depression,
shows that there is something radically
wrong.
Conditions existing have compelled
the authorities of the State to issue bonds
to meet it's obligations. In this emer-
gency when it looked as if the bonds
could not be disposed of the calling to-
gether of the Legislature in extra session
was threatened. Happily this necessity
has been averted, however, and the
States credit has been saved.
With an empty treasury, the only re-
sort is to burden the people still further
| with taxes. Common scense teaches
| that loss of revenue weakens the abili-
| ty of any institution, this is applicable to
governments. Prior to the enactment of
the prohibition law, for years North Car
| DINA had no difficulty in meeting it's OBJ
| legations, but for two years, its revenues
| on liquors have ceased, while millions of
| dollars have gone to other states to en-
rich their liquor dealers and increase
the treasures of other governments.
while the government of North Carolina
and its people are financially growing
| worse and no Improvement of morals
under the sanity law. Are the peo-
pie of North Carolina serfs, criminals or
| slaves? MOI for through their veins
| courses the same blood of their fathers of
1776. They will arise and assert their
manhood.
Let it be understood, those who seek
county offices of Vance and aspire for a
seat in the Legislature must show their
| colors. If such are nominated by the
county convention and will not pledge
| themselves to work and vote for the re-
| peal of the prohibition law, then the self
government voters will assemble and
nominate those who will work for it's re-
peal and are not afraid to express their
| honest convictions. OBSERVER.

Rockefeller, and other great capital
fsts and financiers had the same OPP
pOrtunity to take million dollars
orthe entire issue-Of the North Caro-
lima bonds that the American TObac-
co Company but they did not take
dollars worth of them either to
make q good investment themselves
or to relieve an emergency on the
part of the State. Who then de-
serves the greater credit for coming
up in time of need to save the States
credit
HENDERSON showed up we'll along
with the rest in the State bonds
subscription matter: d. Y. Cooper
$4,000, The Citizens Bank $25, 900,
J. B. Owen $1,000 In the case OF
Mr.. Cooper, he had previously bid
$35, 900. and last week when there
was such a hearty response from
bankers and business men OF North
Carolina in subscribing for these
bonds and averting the necessity OF
an extra session of the Legislature to
relieve the situation, he made an adj
ditional bid of SIS, 900.
Gov. KITCHIN is doubtless delighted
that his old friend, the tobacco trust,
came to his aid in the bond matter.
1t couldn't have been more generous
il Locke Craig had been Governor. In
return for the help the trust will ex-
pect to be let alone in North Carolina
in the future-as it has been in the
past; and the bankers, too, may ex-
pect some little for their help.-States-
vile Landmark.
But we do not believe the tobacco
trust or the bankers took those bonds
with any such object in view. They
will get credit for it, however. and to
all purposes and intents the motives
imputed may as we'll be true.
The illumination by the Hon. E.
J. Justice, with subsections left out,
in Sundays News and Observer,
warning the Democrats against the
American Tobacco COmpany's pa
triotism in buying one million dollars
worth OF North Carolina 4 per cent.
bonds, thereby saving cost OF about
$4,000 or $4,000 to the State in
calling the Legislature together, is
characteristic il it is not timely
But there is no cause for alarm
North Carolina is still safe and the
government will survive The man,
ayers of the American Tobacco Com
pany are true SONS of the old North
State and by their bid saved her from
humiliation.

Judge Lovett Does Not Take
 Strike Seriously.
FIRST TRIP TO CITY
Harahan Joins Lovett in Saying Busi- ness Conditions Are Excellent and That Continuance Is Expected.
 Large Party on Special.

| "Oh, 1 don't think it will amount to much Anyway, I'm not letting it worry me, said President R. s. Lovett of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific. who spent a few hours in Birmingham yes terday accompanied by President J. 1T Harahan of the Illinois Central railroad in answer to a question about the pro- posed strike by the firemen on railroads west of Chicago. With these words MT, Lovett changed the subject of conversa- ton and began inquiring about Birming- | ham.
 When asked about business conditions, Mr Lovett said: General business eondi- tions have been exceptionally good during the past few months and all indications point to a continuance.'
 This was MT. Lovetts first trip to Bir- mingham, and for that reason he was particularly interested. He expressed surprise when he discovered that Alabama had become a dry state, his words carry ing tone of incredulity.
 MT. Harahan expressed the same senti- ment as did MT. Lovett with a further reference to Birmingham. Birmingham is a great town and we are getting quite an amount of tonnage here. l like to see Birmingham grow for I was here way back in '69 before the town was started. There was nothing but a relay house here then.
 Messrs. Lovett, Harahan and party were met at the Terminal station by local of fcials of the Illinois Central and taken for an automobile drive around Bir- mingham. They are travelling in a special train and arrived here at 4:15 o'clock yes- terday afternoon. At s o'clock they con- tinued to New Orleans whence MT. Lovett will go further west while MT. Harahan will return to Chicago A large number of officials are accompanying MT. Lovett The party includes R. s. Lovett presi- dent of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads: J. T. Harahan, president of the Illinois Central; R. w. Goelet of New York. director of the Illinois Central; J. Kruttsehnitt, director of maintenance and operation of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific; J. c. Stubbs, director of traffic of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific; k. o.
