CHANGES IN STATELAWS ARE EXPECTED
PRIMARY COMES
UNDER ATTACK
in N. CAROLINA
Absentee Ballot LaW And
burlington Liquor Act
Also May Be Altered.

At least three North Carolina laws
are expected to be attacked and pos.
sibly repealed or modified by the 1888
General Assembly, as a direct result
of the recent primaries. They are:
The statewide primary, which may
give way to the old convention SYSTEM
The absentee ballot law, which may
be abolished altogether.
The burlington liquor law, which
may be modified in some way.
The primary has had its opponents
since it was adopted some 20 years
ago, and they will now be recruited
from those who have fault to find
with the recent primaries. Many clti-
zens think the selection of candidates
for state offices is a party affair and
should not be done at the expense OF
the state. Many contend that better
men can be secured as nominees in
convention, and that the primary is
Sc expensive it is almost impossible
for a poor man to make the race. The
movement is apparent, even if 1t
should lack enough support
Developments in the recent prima-
ries. seem to indicate the absentee bal
lot system is doomed. 1t was adopted
as an aid to soldiers absent in the SER
vice and that reason has disappeared.
While the last General Assembly
sought to eliminate abuses which had
grown up around it by stringent laws,
it held fast to it, and the abuses ap-
parently were not completely elm
mate. Buncombe county, after a hard
fight, secured its repeal in that coun-
ty, but applying t. local elections on
ly. Others were refused that much let
up. 1t may go this time.
The burlington Act, some 20 years
old and more stringent as a state law
against liquor violations than the Vol
stead Act, may get some attention, as
a result of the repeal plank in the dem
ocratic platform and the heavy vote
for Robert R. Reynolds, running On
a repeal platform.
The law probably cannot be re-
pealed, but it may be modified in some
manner, as by an enactment allowing
drug stores to dispense liquor on pre-
scription. The drug store bill was
fought Out in the last session and de-
feated overwhelmingly. 1t might get
through the next time. Or it is pos
sible that the modification of the law
may take other forms, such as making
the punishment for offenders less Sc
we're. Something of this nature may
be expected to bob up in the next ses-
sion.

IF"
Kipling Had Written
1t Like This!

IF you can see what some folk call depression
As nothing but a spin of Fortunes wheel;
If you can keep your poise and self possession
No matter what you think or how you feel;
If you can view a stupid situation
All cluttered up with ifs and avs and butts
- And take it at its proper valuation <
A challenge to your common sense and CUTS;
If you can rise above the mess and muddle,
If you can glimpse a rainbow through the clouds
When Doubt and Dread and Fear are in a huddle
And hope is being measured for a shroud;
If you can keep a saving sense OF humor
For stories that are slightly inexact;
If you can disregard Report and Rumor,
And not accept a statement as a tact;
If you can spread the gospel of success,
If you can stir the spirit that instills
The latent life in lathes and looms and presses
And lift the stream above a thousand mills;
If, briefly you can spend an extra dollar;
If you can pry the sacred Roll apart
And buy another shirt or shoe or collar
And act as if it didn't break your heart;
If you have faith in those with whom you labor,
And trust in those with whom you make a trade;
If you believe in friend and next door neighbor
And heed examples pioneers have made;
If you expect the sun to rise tomorrow;
If you are sure that somewhere skies are blue
Wake up and pack away the futile sorrow
For better days are largely up to YOU"

| cannot understand
Why men grow old and die,
Though folk on every hand
Attempt to tell me why.
They speak of laws of growth,
They sing the need of death;
| listen to them both
They might have saved their breath
see the golden brow
Turn to a silver cheat;
see the wrinkles pillow
A check that once was sweet.
Wherever lovely youth
Turns ugly, all your wit
Can never hide the truth
The hideous waste of it!
And though on every hand
Are books to tell me why,
cannot understand
Why men grow old and die.

THIRTY different kinds of bread
are required for the Olympic
athletes.
Housewives may be surprised at that
statement, not realizing there are that
many different varieties. Investigation
at the bakery, however, will disclose a
wide field for choice, to make the home
meals more interesting and appetizing.
Athletes have found it SO. The
worlds top-notchers know what kinds
of bread they want, and the Olympic
committee in Los Angeles arranged to
have them all on hand.
For three days the officials collected
various loaves of rye, white, whole

wheat, graham, pumpernickel,
schwartzbrot, sour dough and others,
as samples of the requirements in
Olympic Village, where 1000 athletes
from so nations are to be fed. These
loaves were tested and sampled and
given as the stamp of approval by the
inspectors. One huge bakery was de-
signated as the official bake shop and
all specimens of the 80 desired varieties
were turned over to it.
Bread is an important part of the
athletes menu, according to the dieti-
tians in Olympic Village, as it contains
a great deal of nourishment. 1t is also,
incidentally, the least expensive of
foods.

producers and handlers who bring the vast material pro- duction of the world to the market place. Shall it there be priced at the bankrupt gold standard figures of today, or will these, overwhelming mil lions, stripped of their wealth, establish by their ballots a ra- tional standard of value that will bring them hope and com fort by advancing the price of all commodities, real estate and merchandise to the level of high prosperity? The slow ed-up wheels of industry, the idle millions, the vanished sol i'd wealth of the world is ab- solute proof that mankind has been "crucified on a cross of gold"
 Be not deceived; this is not a part of the outgivings of the campaign of 1896. It is a por- ton of an article in Commerce and Finance in the issue of De- eember, 23 1881, and it is talking about conditions in 1881. It frankly says that ''the commercial vision of the world is turning toward silver as the only sure way of rein stating the relation between debtor and creditor to a nor nal ratio." When debtor na- tions begin to talk about not paying at all and feel no slur upon their pledged honor, we may expect individual debtors
 0 begin to look upon the question of remittance in a new light, too.
 But when Commerce and Fi- nance begins to print articles about the silver standard, it does startle Us bit. The chances are that the spirits of Harvey and Bryan will haunt us yet.-Dallas News.

Why Wait On Europe?

It is no doubt true that the economic situation i'll Europe has an important effect on con- ditions in the United States, but the idea that this country can not get back to something approaching normal prosper ity until Europe is rehabilitat- ed seems to us like putting the cart before the horse.
 It has been generally agreed that only about 10 per cent of our products are ordinarily sold in the world markets. Sup- pose all of that 10 per cent of foreign trade were cut off. We would have a demand for 90 per cent of our output-and even 90 per cent prosperity would be very welcome right now.
 We have not that 90 pel cent demand at present, be- cause we have been worrying so much about Europe that ii seems we are afraid to go for ward ourselves, as we might do if the element of fear were eliminated.
 If every American factory could command the capital to go to work on even a 75 per cent basis immediately, the wages thereby earned by those at present unemployed would greatly add to the nations buying power, and the stim- ulating effect of this would extend to every element of our national life.
 The new reconstruction if nance corporation to be or ganized with government SUD- port may aid in starting busi- ness and industry on the up grade again. But it will also take a greater confidence and courage on the part of the people at large to place us on the high road to economic re- covery. And it would be just as well, in the meantime, to think more about America and less about Europe.

 The difficulty between w. L. Duff and the Premier man. agement has been adjusted and everything is lovely. Duff, it will be remembered, was tried before Commissioner Reed on a charge of malicious destruction of property, for having interfered with the construction of a tram tower on a claim of which he is part owner. Right to cross the claim was given by his two partners, but Duff did not sign ,he agreement and, in view of the fact that owners of other claims had been reimbursed, he also wanted a cash settle ment.
