The people of the X’orth Carolina con'uninities of Charlotte, Wilming ton and Greenslx'ro have never seen a harem skirt yet the editors, or the jotirnaiists, in those places persist in writing things about it that is disjdeasing. Greenville has seen the harem and is in a position to say things about it but v. hy those com munities that have not been granted | the commission form, for they are in this iirivilege will talk about some-j innnediate supervision of their gov- Our Commission Form. The Charlotte News, in an inter esting article on the commission form ('f government, discusses the various views of it. including one taken of It as an “t;n-democratic step.” The fact is the commission form is not tm- dem.ocratic, but represents popular government in a different form, with tlie power of the people committed to fewer representatives than under the old systetn. For instance, Wilming ton’s council will be composed of five cor.nf ilmen instead of ten aldermen, au(i each councilman v.ill have cer tain executive duties to perform, v.-hile all five will legislate for the city. Tl'.ey not only rein'osent the people but are in close touch with them, being subjected to recall if they do not give satisfaction. The fact is, the people iiave more power tinder All that’s new and best. We say this with absolute confidence.

The remarks, however, have been mostly in poetry. The Charlotte Nows was the one that started it, although it must be said to the credit of The X'ews that it referred to the hobble at the outset. This is what it turned loose: ernnient and can call it down or com- iiei it to act under the initiative, the roierendum and the recall. The News says: Mary let at home because She wore it to a ball.

It has failed only in cases where the men in office were tmfit, and the same will be true of the commission form, or any other system of government. It is high time, however, to take more interest in choosing to position men on their merit, men who are best equipped to manage municipal affairs, and w'hen this is done the results will be the same, no matter what the system of government may be. After all Pope was right. “For forms of government let fools contest, Wliat’ere is administered best is best.'’ Pope sizes it up right. The com mission form has advantages over the old form, but, after all, the suc cess of any form of government de- j.ends entirely upon the character and I ho alulity of the men chosen to ad minister it.

How Chronic Coughs Are Being Cured by Vinol—An Account of One Case. New Haven. Conn.—’’I w^as troubled with a most persistent chronic cough for a long time and had tried so many remedies and prescriptions without benefit that I was discouraged. I was persuaded by my friends to try Vinol. I must say that I had little confidence, but I made up my mind to give it a fair trial. Before I finished my first bottle of Vinol 1 commenced to notice an improvement in my general con dition. After taking the second bot tle, my cough left me. and I must say I never felt better in my life,—all due to the use of Vinol. I can also re commend Vinol to any one in a run dow'n condition as the best possible remedy.” (Name furnished on re quest.) It is the combined action of the medicinal elements of the cods' livers aided by the blood-making and strength-creating properties of tonic iron wiiich makes Vinol so efficient in curing chronic coughs, colds and bron chitis—at the same time building up the w’^eakened. run-down system. Vinol contains no oil and tastes good. Try a bottle of Vinol with the un derstanding that your money will be returned if it does not help you. R. H. Jordan & Co., Druggists, Charlotte.
