The Asheboro Couoier BEIGE ONE DOLLAK A YEAR Wm. C. HAMMER, Editor. JUSTICE BREWER CRITICISES THE PRESIDENT. Justice Brewer, of the United States Supreme Court, in an address in New York last week, on public office in relation to public opinion, surprised his audience by engaging in a red-hot criticism of President Koosevelt. We quote from the ad dress as follows: "In this country we elect political officers generally for short and specific terms. For the term elect ed, ruling, of course, in accordance with constitutional provisions, the one selected is a ruler. He may be impulsive, enthusiastic, strenuous, exhibiting a spectacular and dra matic life, or calm and self-poised in -administration. No one doubts that President Roosevelt or Govern or Hughes is a ruler. Neither one is absolute. Each is subject tc lim itation. The range of his power is prescribed, yet within that range each is most emphatically a ruler. "The president is the chief magis trate of this nation, not for his glory, but for our good. Indeed, his greatest glory should be in ac complishing the most for our wel fare. "It may not be generally kuown that the convention that framed the constitution at first prescribed a presidential term of seven years with a prohibition on re-electiou. In the judgment of some men, anion: whom I am one, there is a mistake in changing the seven year term, wit prohib:tion on reflection to the present four year term. In the light of history I think it would have been better to have left the presidential term seven years. If that were the provision, we should not now have the spectacle of a strenuous president playing a game of hide and seek with th) American people." "It is disgraceful for him to ad opt the politicians' trick of being for the law, but against its enforce ment." Justice Brewer then passed to the consideration of the conduct of judges and said: "God pity the republic when our judges introduce the spectacular iu their judicial proceedings ior the sake of temporary popular ap. plause." He quoted Lord Mansfield as say ing: "I wish popularity, but not that which is run after; it is that popu larity which sooner or later never fails to do justice to the pursuit of noble ends by noble minds." Coiigri s Ittisy With lri'iU'iit's Mes sage. The Sixth Congress convened at Washington Monday. Neither the House nor the Senate have settled the business as yet. The time as so far been practically consumed by the reading of the President's message. It was pre sented to both houses Tuesday. In his message President Roosevelt touched upon the great resources of the country. He urged careful and cautious legislation to remove as far as possi ble the caus s cf suffering among our people, and to assert the sover eigenty of the National Government. He advised Federal activity in the control of interstate commerce, de claring that as a rule the attempts of the state's control in its borders as far as possible has been either too lax, or too drastic. He urges 6tricter control of rail roads by Federal law and exactions. He advises a revision of the Sher man Anti-Trust Law to suit the conditions todjy and to make it more efljcisnt, giving the Federal Government control over the big business concerns. The President asks close co-opera-i:- " ith the states in administering i ,,..re food law 3. i iompt attention to the currency question is urged and opposition to "tinkering with the tariff before an election" is also ezpressed in his message. Other matters discussed in the message were; Rate's rights, iu matters of Federal injunctiors; com pulsory investigation of industrial disputes; 'conflict of capital and Labor; Appalachian Park; Panama Canal; Postal affaire; the army, etc. There in nothing better for stomach troubles than KODOL, which contains the came lmces found m a healthy stomach . kODO 1 in offered on a guaranteed plan for the relief of heart burn, flatulence, sour stomach, belching of gas, nausea, and all stomach troubles.

SECRET" WRITING. How Letters May Be Made Safe From Prying Eyes. Even w'.th the most nnromantlc of us occasions sometimes arise when we should like to make some memoran dum or write some letter which csmnot be rend except by those we wish to do bo. Here is n simple method: Soak n Hheet of note paper la cold water and lay It perfectly flat upon a finne of glass, riace ulxve It another sheet, dry this time, and on the upper sheet write your message with a fairly hard pencil. You now destroy the dry paper and allow all the ruolstrre to evaporate from the wet piece. Don't hold it to the Are. but let It dry nat urally. If you then examine it close ly you will see not the faintest trace of writing, but if you moisten the pnper once more and hold It up to the light you can read quite plainly all you wrote. It will show up like the water mark on a postage stamp. This meth od, by the way, Is sometimes adopted by convicts. They use their gxuel cans instead of glass and a sharp piece of wood for a pencil. Another way Is less dirty and even more effective. Lay several sheets cf paier on a flat snrf.ice and write upon the top one. Then remove the tiottoin sheet, on which no impression appears. If you hold this in the vapor of Iodine, however, the writing will turn brown and be quite legible. The explanation Is plain. The note paper r. :.:;:!:is starch, which on being pressed turns to bydrauiide, a substance which Is acted on by iodine iu the manner de scribed. A nswers. THE PURSER'S JOKE. Why Religious Services Were Not Held on That Trip. On most of the big ocean steamers n minister Is usually fouud among ti.a passengers, tnd Invariably he Is called upon on Sunday to conduct religious service In the main dining saloon. Oc casionally the man of the cloth seeks the purser and asks If he may conduct a service on the Sabbath. A case of this sort happened recently on one of the Red D steamers on the run from New York to La Guayra. A young minister who three days before the steamer sailed had taken orders from a seminary, and a day later a wife asked the purser If he might conduct religious service on the following day, which was Sunday. The purser re plied that the dining saloon was at his disposal and that the passengers would be Informed. "At what hour shall the service begin?" asked the young minister. The purser rubbed his brow a moment and replied that he could begin at "nine bells." The minister and his bride appeared In the dining saloon at 9 o'clock In the morn' lng and waited four hours for the con' gregatlon, which did not come. On the following day he listened again for "nine bells," but heard thera not New York Tribune. 8he Said the Wrong Thfcg. "I shall never forget the breakfast I gave to a pretty girl when I first knew her," the short man began. "It would make your mouth water to hear what It was grape fruit to begin with, the most delicate of breakfast food with cream, a choice broiled chicken it was a late breakfast the finest of fruit, coffee. I can't remember the things I ordered for her at that breakfast, and what do you think she said when sh9 finished? She said: "You needn't have gone to ko much trouble. I don't ca.?a for anything but a couple of eggs for my breakfast and a piece of toast. "It was the wrong thing to say. I will admit," sighed his wife. "I was that girl, and I have been living ever since on a couple of eggs for my break fast and a piece of toast." New York Press. Senator Overman. The Durham Herald pays Sena tor Overman a very handsome com pliment when it says his "conduct is such as becomes a senator, but is not such as counts for much in times like these." The people know that Mr. Overman bad rather not Le re elected than to stoop to the tricks of certain persons desiring political preferment. We believe thj people thoroughly understand Mr. Overman and honor him for the upright, manly position he has tuken in regard to the election of his successor, and we believe that the people will say that he should be his own successor. They see through the schemings and political trickery of the few men in the State who are trying to down him, and they are not going to stand for it. We do not believe the people of the State would be so blind to their own interests and to those cf the whole south, as to consent that he should al this time be put aside for any scheming politician. They are not going to consent to the exchange of a tried and proven statesman for a mere politician and political wire puller. Wilmington Messengei . A WOMAN'S BACK.
