There Is only one reform that Is needed: only one abuse that needs ta be corrected, and that la discriminative freight rates. Upon this subject the people are united- Democrats, Republicans, everybody. It must come, but It will come in an orderly war. without setting the State by tha ears. "It la not a time." we are told, "for the people to yield to a reactionary movement-" If this means anvthlnr at all It means that this la not a time for peace, but that what ws need Is more agitation, more dis turbance. Panic conditions are not aa bad aa they can be but we must aggravate them by starting another movement to correct "admitted abuses" and accomplish "needed re forms." .' What abuses T What re forms? The people cry for nulet; they beg to be let alone; they say. "Don't agi tata any more; there has been too much of It; agitation hurts business- hurts the merchant, the farmer, the laboring men, everybody.

Cut as a matter of fact no such prospect offers Itself to the view. For all that the Republican leaders last winter planned a do-nothing ses sion and have been devoting their chief energies to killing time grace fully, the likelihood of such very early departure from the capital Is not great' Pernicious activity on the part of both the President and the Democrats has been squelched, the purpoeely-slowed appropriation bills finally approach their end, and Con gressmen of both parties are looking anxiously toward the political fence at home yet Congress still drags. The Aldrlch-Cannon oligarchy, find ing the powers behind them discon tented with the programme of passiv ity In one respect undertook to put through a stock-speculation Currency moasure, and they are having an un expectedly protracted wrestle In con sequence.

Mayor Franklin declared that he favored a license of 1 10a per annum with an additional tax or J centa on every prescription filled by the . drug stores. It Is generally con ceded that there Is a strong sentiment existing among the aldermen to take away the whiskey licenses of all the drug stores and to forbid its sale for any purpose within the - city. - This sentiment owes its generation to com plaints alleged to have 'been received to the effect that tores are selling without discrimination, and abusing flagrantly the privilege which the will give the total cost to each prop erty owner so. fortunate aa to possess a S 0-foot lot on the street. This is IHS.IS. - Alot of twice this frontage of course will , cost Just twice this amount and so on. The ( cost la not so great. As soon a all the petitions have j been signed, the matter will be pre sented to the aldermen and final ac tion taken. A similar movement has been . In progress for some time on West Trade street.

In shining contrast with all this we pre eent the conclusion of The Robeson' ten's report of the speech of Mr. Locke Craig before a great audience at Lumberton Wednesday night of last week: "Re derlarrd thst he wa tired of the spirit of agitation and. that lie wanted to de nomethlng to net tha wheels of Industry, whose Idlrneas ha . thrown many men out of employment, In motion."
