The Mileage Book Nuisance.
(ROwland SUM-

The mileage book nuisance" will
see its finish. A bill will likely
be passed in the present North Caro-
lima Legislature compelling railroads
to pull the mileage, instead Of re-
curing it to be exchanged Ior tickets
as is the custom now. The ~nuiSance
is also being fought in other States.
We could never see the Idea of the
railroads in making this ruling, for
it surely puts passengers to a great
deal of inconvenience.

REPuBIIcANIsM IN CHINA.

Whatever may come Of the present
upheaval In China. one fact stands out
bold and strong. and that Is that the
effect Of republican form Of govern
ment in the United States has had on
the Chinese mind. IT Is surprising
that a people so long accustomed 70
al absolute monarchy, should at once
rise in their might and attempt 90
throw off the rule Of an absolute mon
archy in order that they may adopt
o pure republicanism. Such move
ments have heretofore in the history
OF the world grown gradually al
though there is always a time when
the crisis comes in the history Of "A
country when the final plunge must
be made and issues settled by more or
less bloodshed.
1t is safe to say that the great
powers We're not prepared for so for
midable a movement in China and
those OF a monarchcal character are
by no means pleased with the pros
pect. Germany is especially disgrun-
tied, and the German press Is accus-
ing the United States OF extending lbs
influence towards Fastening the over
throw of the Manchu dynasty,
While it is not true that we as
nation are abettng the reyolutonists,
there Is a throh Of sympathy in every
American heart for those Cinnamon
who arc struggling for a higher and
more liberal form Of government
The revolutonists may not get all
they want They may fan short Of
the ultimate goal they have TN mind.
but one thing is certain, and that is
that China VIII take a step forward
and place herself in a position where
she can gain the republic that is so
fondly cherished by her best people, at
some time in the near future.

Nashville, February 3.-(Special.)- 1.-The
first measures to become Tennessee laws
since the converting of the Legislature
were two returned to the house today by
Governor Hooper with his official dp-
rroval. The first one signed by the gov
ernor was the bill to provide for a COM
mission form of government for Chatta-
nooga. while the other was local stock
law The Nashville charter bill came up
In the senate this morning and was
passed by vote of q to 4, twice. After
the first vote Mr.. McAdster of Davidson
said some members had not fully under
stood the bill, and moved that the record
be expunged ana that the bill be again
read In full. This was done and the
entire text of the bill was read by the
clerk. after which the bill was passed by
the same vote. 1t is thought that the
fight In the house may be close.
Beginning early in the day the senate
disposed of much business. A bill was IN
troduced requiring physical telephone
connections and placing a heavy penalty
upon violators of the law. A blu was
also introduced giving grand juries in
ouisitorial powers in misdemeanor cases

PEOPLE OF SOUTH
MUST BE ACTIVE

Charleston, S. c., February S.-Speak-
ing before the Charleston Chamber of
Commerce at smoker given tonight in
honor of the establishment of through
service between Charleston and Cincin-
natl, w. w. Finley. president of the
southern railway, declared that If the
people of the south are to get the ben
eft they should from the opening OF
the Panama canal, they should at once
begin cultivating closer trade relations
With the ports to pe brought closer by
the canal. ya
Mr.. Finley called attention to the op-
portunities for trade in the West IN
dies and the Latin American countries
bordering on the Gulf of Mexico and
the recent growth of trade with these
countries. He said:
"A large proportion of the exports
to the Latin American countries con-
sists of commodities that can be pro-
duced as advantageously in the south
eastern states as in other parts of the
country. Cotton goods contrib buted
s7,461,S37 to the exports to these coun-
tries for eleven months of 1910. The
south is now retaining the profits to be
made from manufacturing large and
increasing proportion of it's cotton crop.
Another step in the same direction
would be the handling of export cot
ton goods through our southern ports.
The same should be done in regard to
other products manufactured In the
south, our people retaining the profits
of marketing as we'll as manufacturing
the widely diversified products made
possible by our natural resources

solutions have been offered. but up to
last night the situation appeared almost
hopeless At Thursday nights caucus,
however. a majority of the voters in
the two houses decided upon a measure
that is declared to be Simon pure local op-
tion, and this measure of Judge Parks,
Alex Pitts and Joe Arnold Is the one
which Is now declared to be sure Of pass
aga. The measure simply provides that
elections shall be held in the various
counties to determine whether or not the
sale of liquor shall be legalized, and
whether this sale shall be by dispensaries
or by licensed saloons. The remaining
matters are to be thrashed out by the
particular counties or by a general law
which may be passed to regulate license.
Owing to the grSat number of local
option bills which have so far been intro
duced in the two houses the solons have
been made weary with so constant Pc
rusal of the "be 1t enacted" liquor
clauses The interim has been filed in
with the most out-andout routine discus
sicns that have been had In many legis-
latures, and the result has been to make
the legislators more and more weary. AS
a consequence the vacation to Tuesday
neon has been hailed with delight on all
sides.
