,0 DANGER TO PEOPLE. Mr. McColn Point out Evil Effects ot Trusts. We make iom for a few extracts from a recent address at Kernel 8 Tille High School by Mr. R. S. Mc Coin, a prominent young attorney of Henderson, N. C. The speech was a "live wire" by a live young man. Mr. McCoiu is a native of Davidson county. "In this fast age when people do things on a big scale, we see trusts aad combines robbing the people of millions and handing back thousands by the way of endowments to a few favored colleges. This looks well at first glances, but I 'fear the Greeks when they come bearing gifts.' "A man or a corporation can be as guilty morally of larceny or rob bery although perpetrated under the guise of law, as if the victim was aeld up on the highway or his goods were stolen while he slept. A bank robber'or an insurance grafter is no less a robber or a thief because he subsidizes a few leading news papers or hands back a small pai t of the booty by way of college endow, ments for the purpose creating sen timent through the endowed col lege and subsidized press. I do not believe that all newspapers can be bought or that all colleges can be influenced by gifts from this source, but I do believe that there is daogei along this line. My experience and - observation as a lawyer has taught me that a client's money often has a wonderful soothing aud softening effect on the attorney's judgment. "It is a difficult for a student trained in a college that has received large donations from trusts to fully appreciate the iniquity of trusis. Is it possible for a minister of the gospel; however pious he may be, to pnach as successfully the fraud aid wrong of tbe oil trust, the steel trust, the railroad trust or the cigarette trust, if his denomination is the beneficiary of auy of these trusts that rob the peopler "The day ii fast approachig when the man who manufactures cigarettes to wreck and blight the lives of thousands of our boys and young men, will he classed with the men who manufacture intoxicating liquors. The manufactsie of one is as abominable in the Bight of God as the other. "Many of the larger colleges are being endowed bv wealthy men and gigantic corporations. In this lurks great danger, and for this and other reasons, the time has come in Norte Carolina for compulsory education in the public schools supported by taxation. If our children owe their education to the people who pay the taxes they will sympathize with tbe people who gave tnem tneir oppor -.-.tnnity for development. - On the other hand if trusts nave given them their opportunity of acquiring an education there is danger that their sense of gratitude may influence tnem to defend tbe criminal course of these outlaws of commerce. A few subsidized newspapeis ablv edited, teaching the icieas of . the trusts, aided by well-trained men eent out of subsidized colleges can work wonders with uneducated people. "But with an educated citizenship, trained to think for themselves, the country will be safe; the demagogue and hired mouthpiece will be at a discount, and statesmanship will be : at a premium, bo Jong as our cit izens are educated o do their own thinking, they will direct and con trol their office-holders, who will honestly reflect and put into action the wishes of an intelligent, just and honest people, who are tbe real rulers under our form of govern , ment. Character Building. Character building must be done by one individual alone. It is dull slow hard work with many a burden to carry. ' No matter how lowly the sphere in which he may be, no matter bow limited the invironments, character can be built at will. There are people of brains, wealth and p eitioo who are failures, aud there are those of limited abilities and humble position who are yet success faVinasmuch as they have made the utmost of themselves and their opportunites. There is no satisfac tion that can compare with that of looking back across the years and finding that you have grown in self control, in charity of judgment, in a sense of justice, in generosity and unselfishness. To possess character is to be se fnl and to be useful is to be entirely independent. , The Atlanta Journal call tbe mar riage of steel trust Corey to the actress Oilman "an outrage on deceucy." Corey's wife wabis help meet when he was poor. Now, that be is rich, he has deserted her for the airy, an tress. If there is any suppr-hemed portion of bill it should te prew-rved for craitnres of the t 'orey type. News and Oter?er. . - Blark-Rirds. (By Lillian ThornDurf.) Winter, stealthily, bests s retreat. At mild hours lengthen the day, Refusiug ever, their fervor to meet; Like s mid-night caitiff gliding sway. Keeping cold breaths for s future time: When there conies over A wild land-rover - From a warmer clime. g List! tis a sudden rush of wings. The tree, rH yet its leaflet seen, Is filled with merry twitterings And chirrupimrs of coming green That clothe the boaglis, which soft winds sway i You hint of spring As you sing Your merry lay. Winging your flight by cool fountains.' That ripple away in mimical rills; Soaring aloft, when reaching the mountains Swooping, again where verdure the valley nils. Tarrying not on the way; Now there floats Your happy notes At the close of day. The sun sinks, slowly, in the West; An inn of reeds, by the river's brink, Is welcome shelter for the tuneful rent. Which yesterday with today will link, Flying away with trills of mirth: And flouting along Is warbled a song Back to the earui. Night airs stir your beds of reeds, The gleam ot lanterns the story tills Of murders, whose loathsome greed. The life flood Sowing, never quells. And helpless, the slayer's hand to stayt Death hushs the throats That wafted sweet notes Through the day. Morning dawns, again in the tree Bursts the melody of yesterday ; Softer, lower the strains of glee, Which tremble on the breeze today. A sad note quivers through the mirth: Yet flying on There floats a suing Down to the eurtn. Singing you grieve, or, grieving you sing. Is the soiii: the sweeter for pain? The luimv dear in ites, who swiltly did wing ' ineir mgni oy your sice, are slain. 'Twos cruelty that wrought this dearth: Hut chirrrnpiug on still comes the song Of grief or mirth. Thus, must the heart in nnguih learn. And give to the world in song? And in agony inu'-t. bravely, turu To meet the tet. that proves the sp rit strong Aud. submissive lw beneath the rod; From a pure life flows A fri grancc that blows From the throne oi tijrt. Eyes may beam a Summer' brightness. Quivering soul. do nobly its part: The f:ice may wear a swoet llgutness. While winter reigns in the heart. Ami. in sorrow is sung a song so lief: The song that Is worth Tne praises of earth Is the one that is snug in grief. Hir Timber Deal. Chatham Record. A timber deed was registered in this county this week, the consider ation of which was $18,000, executed bv R. W. Massie, A. N. Pierce and W. E. Reece of Lynchburg, to Z. H, Powell, of Norfolk. This timber was bought for $8,000 a few months ag" by the persons now selling it for $18,000, and is on tbe west side of Deep fiver, near Lockville. Fiost on the 22ud of May is about as late is remembered by the old est inhabitant, and yet thatnnuBual event occurred here yesterday morn ing, when it seemed almost like winter aod the thermometer showed a temperature of 4.2 degrees above zero. v Tbe recent breaking of tne big Buckhorn dam on the Cape Fear river bas greatly reduced the quan tity of water in the river beween Buckho n and Lockvile, in this county. The water is now so low in that part of the river that the gasolene boat can not run, as heretofore, between Buckhorn and Lockville. A prompt, pleasant, good remedy for coughs and cold, is Kennedy's Laxative Poutrh SvrnD. It is esneciallv recommend ed for babies and children, but good for evei v member of the- family. It contains no opiates ai;d does not constipate. Contains honey and tar and tas es nearly as good as maple eyrtip Children like it.
