Progressive Farmer, r And now that the war Is over, what will Japan do7 And what will Rtintia do? It is likely, that we shall see great changes in the Czar's dominions a gradual break ing away from the old antoc racy and the development of a more modern and more eN flcient government. In Japan we are likely to see the begin ning of an area of great in dustrial progress and expan sion and but the story can not be better told than in the World's Work for Auguatr and we produce herewith Dr. Welter Page's editorial .on "The Great Deetiny of Ja pan." What effect will the Ja panese victory have on the future of Asia, and especially on the future of China? This is the question that every man asks who studies the world in a large way. 'The saddest fact that the widely traveled or the widely read man finds on the earth is the condition in Asia The greater part of the human race live j'et unhHpel ny tne sanitary, mechanical, e c o noroic and social discoveries wherebjli'e in the Western World has been freed to a de gree from plagues and fam ine and poverty and object ness, These swarming mill ions of our fellow creatures miss most things that make life worth living, as we re gard it such as reasonable safety from hunger and want reasonable labor and and reasonable freedoms chance for a child to grow to full stature, to live a normal number of years, well clad and well fed, and to enjoy also a fair degree of indepen dence in mind and character. During the few centuries that we have enjoyed these things Asia har hardly changed at all. l'rui. British rule in In dia has brought order in a small areo and has made life safer and lifted jt to'adegrae; but there has been no great change. Such change as has come has been ,super-lmposu ed. It has not proceeded from within nor taken deep root. The outlook of these hun dreds of millions of human creatures is md-h the same as It was in the days of War ren Hastings. And China re mains In a similar if a less plight. The fate thst seemed even a year ago to await all these Oriental people was tbs unsympathetic domination of Western nations, eager chiefly to despoil them in trade nations which were alien and which, therefore, lacked the ability even when they had the wish, to change the stagnant condition of 0 riental life. "Nnnr Jnrmn'n rise to now er puts a new force at work in this Old World. The most liniortnnt question that touches the lives of hundreds of millions ot men Is whether the Ja panes can do for other Oriental nations what they have done for themselves and what no western people can do hreqk up their stagna tion and lift them to the Wes fern level in health, in nor mal activitv. and oDOortnnl t.V. They are akin to the WATAUGA COUNTY, Chinese tn race and thought and language and religion; and they are much nearer than any branch of the white race to the other Asiatic. Their ambition, too, must urge them to this ennobling effort. " "This much at least Is true whereas there was no hope of Europe awakening Asia to a healthful and active exist ence, there is now a chance that the Japanese may do this great task in the course of coming centuries; and it is the greatest task of human helpfulness that Is presented in the condition of mankind, to lift half 'the human race from stagnant sadness into healthful activities." Are You Engaged f Engaged people should remem ber that after marriage many quar rels can be avoided. by keepmgtheir digestion in good condition with Electric Bitters, o A. Brown, of Bennetsville. S. C. says I 'F o r f'ears my wife suffered Intensely rom dyspepsia, complicated with a torpid liver, until she lost her strength Add .vigor and became a mere wreck of her ;former,self. Then she tried Electric Bitters, which helped her at once and final' ly made her entirey well. She is now strong and healthy." M. B. Blackbnrn sella and guarantees them at 5OC a bottle. The off nse of attacking a lodge or other officers of the law Is a serious one and should always be adequately nunished. Respect for the of fleers of the law is necessary to the properadministration of the law, aud if the people show disrespect for officers of the law they may be execten to show disrespect for the law itself. If attacks on officers of the law were not severely punished offens es of this kind might become numerous. Winston Sent- nel. Like. Finding Money. Finding health is like fluding money so think those who are sick. When you have a cough, cold, sore throat or chest irritation, better act promptly like W. C.

Klote of Emna, Mo, For any dtsordef of the stomach, WHcfUness of constipa tion, these Tablets art without a peer, For sale by 4, M, ilvftt. N. C, THURSDAY farttersfieeoalBt InJepeafaU Wilmington Messenger. News from all sections of the state shows that the cot ton planters held back more cotton of last season's crop than ever before. Union coun ty farmers, we are told, bare sold over four thousand bales since .July the 4th. In Pitt county there were given in by tax listers eleven hundred bales against three hundred the year before. Tbe Scottish Chief states that cotton is coming in at a rapid rate; that there were nearly one hundred bales sold at Max ton from wagons the week before and that much more than double that amount was expected the coming week. Very little of this cot ton last mentioned is of the new crop. It was principally old cotton which the farmers had refused to sell last spring for six and seven cts. a pound, and for which they are now getting over ten cents. From other sections come aimilar reports. The fact that tbe farmers were able to hold back so much cotton shows conclu- s i v e 1 y that they are, as a class, in a better financial condition than they h a j e been for a long time, This is tbe first year in many that they have been able to ex tend the cotton market thro' the entire year. Heretofore the pressing demands of land lords and creditors have fore ed them to put thrir cotton on the market asfast as they could have it picked and gin ned. They were at the mercy of the men to whom they owed money as rent or for supples. Tbe past year many of them become independent of these creditors, If they will be jurficous and economical for the next year or so they will become still more inde pendent and will soon beable to make the receipts of one crop pay the expenses of rais ing the next, insteao of, as in the past, mortgaging tbe en tire crop before it is planted and teeling at the end of tbe year they have been fortu nate if they have made en ough to satisfy the!demands of landlords and furnisheisof supplies and can start the next crop without carrying over a debt from the last year and making it an ad1i- tional lien on tbe crop to be taieed. When the farmer can thus become independent he will soon begin to add each year "to his savings. This will result in fewer tenant farm ers and owners of small profl table farms. Always Successful, When indigestion becomes chronic it is dangerous. Hodol Dyspepsia Cure will cure indig-estion and all troubles resulting therefrom thus preventing catarrh of the stomach. Dr. Newbrough, of League, West Vt.f sayss "To those suffering from indigestion or sour stomach Iwouid say there is no better rcmady than Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. 1 have pre scribed it for a number . of my pa tienta with good success."

Whiskey lad tha Law. Floiida Times-Union, The dispensary in South Carolina is a failure, and no effort at excuse or denial can resuscitate Its claims. Wheth er It conduces to temperance j we must leave to Individual judgment. In ouroplnion the testimony is against even this supposition but as a po litical principle it is killed by this acknowledgement made at last by Senator Tillman: "I believe as the law now stands there is every oppor tunity for graft, and as it is now administered I fear there is a great deal more stealing I like tbe old wotld better than tbe new than has been unearthed, and that is why 1 advocate changes in the law and a return to the original plan with additional safe guards." Such a law cannot be ex cused on any ground. Tbe enactment which has become an instrument of thieves in the bands of its friends must be anathama to the honest citizen. Let us conceds the fu neral and let the issue rest. But still it remains true that the people at a whole are progressing towards tern perance. The Charleston News and Courier, itself an advo cate of the liense plan, de elates that South Carolina has been opposed to the dis pensary since its working demonstrated that it was not a prohibition measure that prohibition is desired and the revolt is not wh'iy because of the scandals of tbe dispensary, but because nothing 'ess than prohibi tion will serve. TheNews and Courier should know. But we steadily drink less whiskey and more beer pro ving that we move towards temperance but not towards prohibition. Perhaps what we consume of both beer and whiskey is "waste or worse," as we n,re told, but certainly beer is less unwholesome than whis key, and is nearer food than its rival. It might be better if we drank ueither. It is con soling to know that wedrink less than our fathers did, and that we are constantly low ering our own record. No Unpleasent Effect.
