The Ready-made Meal.

The aversion that restaurant fed
persons show for 'side dishes" is det-
rimenta1 to their digestions and try
ing to their tempers. In seeking the
difference between ready-made dinners
and real home cooking this matter of
the side dishes at once is found to be
the most vital point The read y-
made dinner consists chiefly of soup,
a large order of meat and a dessert,
with either a dish of stewed toma toes
(from the CAM or a baked potato. to
represent the vegetables. Psychology
is a factor in the situation. The res
taurant diner may realize keenly
enough that he is given too much
meat without other provender, yet he
will shrink from paying extra dimes
and quarters for salads and beets and
worse the chances are that if the
enough exercise to make him require
even half the amount of meat that is
set before him-but to get his moneys
worth he devours as much of the order
as he can.
In contrast to this picture, consider
the man who lives on real home cook
ing. His steak is not so thick and
juicy, perhaps nor garnished with
mushrooms and sprigs of unknown
plants; but see what he has in COM
pensation, what an Overlooking meas

Snake Mixed the Cow.

Munro Cogswell is a small farmer
living just outside the village Of Tar
iffville and he has COW which has
been turned out to pasture for some
weeks now. He had noticed lately that
the COW when she was MIXED at night
did not give any milk from one udder.
About a week ago he was in the past
ure when he saw L big black snake
run under a fiat stone He went TO the
house and secured aid to turn over the
stone, and when this was done two
black snakes were found and killed.
One of them measured eight feot and
two inches in length and the other a
trif1e over four feet. He remembers
having seen the bigger of the snakes
in the pasture last year, and it is "A
fact that all through the season the
cow gave no milk from one udder.
Since killing the snakes the COW has
given milk from all the udders and he
is satisfied that the snake or snakes
had been in the habit daily of helping
themselves to fresh warm milk.

REPUBLICAN SUCCESS WOULD
DO IT.

The Charlotte Observer, In a re-
cent editorial. laments the fact that
thousands Of the most successful
farmers from many Northwest States
are moving over into Canada. and
asks why something can not be done
TO bring these men into the South.
The answer 10 the question is simple.
These farmers, while they probably
know that there Is cheaper and bet
ter land in the South than there is
in Canada, yet feel that they would
not be welcome In the South; that
they would be looked upon as Yam
KEGS and foreigners, and be more or
less ostraciZed, both socially and in
business. The remedy for that is
for the State TO go Republican. That
would mean the coming OF a great
deal Of capital TO be invested in the
Industries of the State, as well as
the coming Of the class of Northwest
farmers that are now going to Can
ada. The State is to-day wonderful
ly prosperous under Republican ma
tional policies, and all 1t needs in
order to increase this prosperity to
its full measure Is to have a Re-
publican State administration.

THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE
PARTY's HUMILIATION.

Some good Republicans in the
State have been and are still blam-
ing President Taft for the appoint
ment OF a Democrat for Federal
Judge of the Eastern District. No
one regrets the reflection thus placed
upon the many able Republican law
yers in the east more than We do.
but the blame should be placed
where II belongs. and that Is, at the
door OF the false and selfish leader
ship Of the Republican party In the
State.
In the first place, Mr.. Adams. the
State Chairman. who did not live in
the Eastern District. wanted to be
appointed Judge himself, and Mr..
Duncan was willing TO unload Adams
on the people of the east so that he
could himself be made State Chair
man and thus become the absolute
this double-barrel selfish scheme, it
was necessary to try to show that
there was no Republican in the east
qualified TO be Judge To this end,
as one Republican said the other day,
the Republican machine "ly-blow-
ed" every prominent Republican
lawyer in the east who was strongly
endorsed for the Judgeship. 1t is
also charged, and believed by many,
that when Adams could not land the
Judgeship, that a certain Democrat
who was wanted by certain powerful
interests was endorsed.
In the face OF all this, it is very
strange that the President should
feel that if he had to take a Demo-
crat that he would take one from
the Supreme Court bench of the
State? One thing is certain, and that
is, that If the party had had at it's
head true Republicans and men of
capacity, who wanted to build I'D the
Republican party, and who would
have been willing to have picked out
the strongest, most competent and
deserving Republican in the east for
the Judgeship in the first instance
that a Democrat would never have
been appointed

vention will re-organize the party

THAT WILMINGTON SCANDAL

The charges that have grown out
OF the affidavit of one Winner, in the
city OF Wilmington, have developed
a state of affairs that has astounded
the people. not only of that place.
but the entire State as we'll.
Winner, who had been convicted
OF selling liquor and sentenced in
the State court to a term in prison,
In an affidavit set forth that he was
member of a combine of illegal
liquor sellers who paid a monthly
tax OF IS, in return for which they
were to be warned of approaching
trouble and even if arrested were to
be guaranteed only fine as punish
ment. The agreement had been
working finely, until Mr.. Winner
happened to be carried before the
State Court and was given a term of
six months. Feeling aggrieved, he
turned upon his associates.
In the community his charges
were so strongly borne out that
prominent citizens offered to back
him. The community is now trying
to find out to whom the money was
paid. Who promised and secured
for so long the immunity that these
law offenders enjoyed? Which Off
Ger or officers of the law are guilty?
These questions are agitating the
Wilmington folk. A rigid and i'm
partial investigation must be made.
Let there be no star chamber pro-
ceeding, such as the Democrats in
Mississippi used to hide their shame.
Let the people know. 1t is their
right.
We rejoice to see that fair-minded
papers of the other side, such as the
Charlotte Observer, calls for Justice
1t is unfair to the community, it is
unjust to themselves, for the Demo-
cratic managers to attempt to hide
such gross breach of the public
faith, If such exists, in the fear of
losing votes.

The Politicians Made Prohibition for
Poor Folks and Niggers.

Clinton News-Dispatch.1
If our prohibition friends know
when they are doing well they will
not try to carry the thing too far.
They should at least understand that
lots of fellows voted and hollered
until their throats were sore for
prohibition, but they did 1t with the
understanding that they would be
allowed to get it from "Old Vir-
ginia.' They also seem to under
stand that prohibition was only in
tended for poor white folks and
negroes. Of course they didn't mean
to have their privileges" taken
away from them, and if Congress
should happen to pass a law prohib-
iting the shipment of the fiery fluid
into prohibition territory you would
soon see the present prohibition law
repealed, they would do it in a fifty.

SHEMWELL FOR DEMOCRATIC
RAILROAD COMMISSIONER

The Clinton News Dispatch, in an
editorial, suggests that the Demo-
cratic party ought to nominate Shem-
well for railroad commissioner. be-
cause he has shown his ability to
effectively bring the Southern Rail-
way to terms.
If Shemwell can be trusted to hold
up the railroads and require that
North Carolina shall not be discrim-
mated against in freight rates, then
the Democratic party will do the
State a service greater than it has
been able to do in the past by NOM
mating Shemwell for the position.
Every day the railways are charg-
Ing our people higher rates than in
other States and hauling freight
through North Carolina to points he
yond the State at rates lower than
those charged to our people in the
state, and yet we have a Democratic
railroad commission. with power to
act or at least take some steps to-
ward investigating and helping to
regulate this matter, but they have
done nothing more in this direction
than has been done in enforcing the
Democratic State antitrust laws and
the other laws On the statute books
against crime of all kinds. Surelv
the alarming increase of crime. the
alarming administrative incapacity
OF the Democratic party to check the
same ana to enforce other laws,
calls for a protest and a rebuke from
the manhood of the State.
