" fflESTIOH GRESSMAN WEBB In the House of Representa tives recently Congressman Webb, of this, the 9th, North Carolina district, made a telling speech, from which we give our readers some extracts, as fol lows: The problem of the regulation of the whiskey traffic and its ab solute prohibition has agitated the minds of the people of the United States for the last fifteen years more than any other one question. No careful observer of the times will deny that public sentiment against the whiskey traffic is growing stronger and stronger every day." Only a few years ago bar rooms were main tained in this capitol building. Now not a drop of whiskey is, al lowed to be sold anywhere within its mighty confines. The Con gress took this step against the traffic. A few years ago the army canteen flourished among our soldier boys, but not so now. This Congress has forbidden it. In 1906 Congress passed a law requiring the collectors of inter nal revenue to place conspicuous ly in their office for public inspec tion a list of all persons who have paid a special license tax in his district, and they shall fur nish a copy of such list of per sons to any prosecuting officer of any State, county, or municipal ity upon demand by such officer. The Hepburn-Dolliver bill passed this House by almost a unanimous vote on January 27th, 1903, and died in the Senate. I verily believe, sir, that if a vote can be secured on that measure by the present membership of this House, it will pass again by a practically unanimous vote; and and if it does so pass, it will not die so easily at the other end of the capitol. The courts of the United States, U'1 almost universally, have con demned the whiskey traffic. I have only time to quote from one judicial tribunal, and that "Is the Supreme court of the United States, the greatest law body on earth. - - "We cannot shut out of view the fact, within the knowledge of all, that the public health, the public morals and the public safe ty is endangered by the general use of intoxicating liquors; nor he fact established by statistics accessible to every one, that the idleness, disorder, pauperism and crime existing in the country are argely traceable to this evil." Let it be understood that no man has the inherent or natural right to sell wThiskey. The right ;o sell it depends upon the will of the people, for the United States Supreme court in the case of Crowley vs. Christensen, 136 U. S. 83, has declared: "There is no inherent right in a citizen to thus sell intoxicating iquors by retail; it is not a privi ege of a citizen of a State or of the United States." Therefore, no barkeeper can cry that he is deprived of any This -woman says that after months of suffering Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made her as well as ever. Maude E.

ON PROHIBITION. innerentor natural right when the people, by their vote, tell him that he must not and shall not sell whiskey within the bord ers of a county or State. I believe that the number of cotton mill owners who favor the liquor traffic in the great State from which 1 come and it has more cotton mills than any other State in the Union can be counted on the fingers of one hand. I am equally sincere in the belief that less than five per cent, of honest, industrious, home-building cotton mill opera tives in North Carolina are in favor of the liquor traffic. It is the one great curse among them and they are using their best ef forts to stamp it out of existence. The famous labor leader in England, John Burns, member of parliament, recently declared to a great audience of working men in London, in discussing the liquor question: "I deem it my duty to say that but for drink and its concomitant evils our problem would be smaller and our remedies more effective." No one knows better than the laboring man the blighting, deso lating effects of whiskey or to what depths of misery-and shame it will drag him. The merchant opposes the whiskey traffic not only on moral grounds, but because he has learned that the saloon is an in veterate foe to thrift and in dustry and lessons the capacity of his debtor to meet his obliga tions. The farmer is opposed to the liquor traffic. He takes the high moral ground that he -has no right to license a system whose chief business is to destroy character, increase crime, - en large the pauper class and dark en homes. He opposes it on an other ground out in the rural districts, far from the protecting hand of policeman and sheriff he knows the danger of his wife and daughter from the drunken negro whose blood is heated and whose brain is unbalanced by the use of bad liquor. The negro seems to have inherited an ap petite for intoxicants, and, like the tiger when he tastes blood, he negro likewise when he be comes mtoxicatedr becomes en raged. Let the fanners consult their wives and daughters as to wheth er or not the open saloon should exist m any country district of our fair State. For that matter, if you will leave the vote to the women of our State as to wheth er or not the saloon should exist in town or country, I guarantee ;he whiskey traffic would not have one ballot in its favor. More than one-half of this great republic of eighty millions of people has already adopted prohibition laws. The following commonwealths, aggregating a population of more than nine millions of people, have adopted absolute State prohibition, to-wit: Alabama, Georgia, Kansas, Maine, North Dakota and Okla homa. The people of the United States are waking up to tne iact tnat the whiskey traffic is the most ruthless and wreckless destroyer of property, character and life that exists in our midst Hon. Carroll D. Wright, while United States Commissioner of Labor, said: "I have looked into a thousand homes of the working people of Europe; I do not know how many in this country. I have tried to find the best and the worst; and while, as I say, the worst exists, and as bad as under any system, or as bad as in any age, I have never had to look beyond the in mates to find the cause; and in every case, so far as my obser vation eroes. drunkenness was at the bottom of the misery, and not the industrial system or the industrial conditions surrounding the men and their families." Intoxicating liquors each year cost the people of the United States more than the price of their annual product of wheat, cotton, crold. silver, lead and nrecious stones.

A. Leslie's drug tore. , - collected by the United States government for a whole year would scarcely pay the liquor bills of our people for sixty days. From high testimonials, he continued, wTe can easily gather that prohibition is a blessing and a benefit morally and industrially to those States that have adopted it. Then why should not the voters and citizens who love peace, rever the law, hate crime and weep over sorrow, unite in one grand phalanx and on May 26th drive the saloon forever from the borders of our beloved and fair Carolina? Washington Political Gossip. Mr. Thos. J. Pence writing to the News and Observer from Washington furnishes the follow ing interesting political gossip: iThe opposition to the nomina tion of Secretary of War Taft has caved in, and it is only a ques tion of days when public acknow ledgement of this statement will be made. While it is true that the various headquarters of the allied Republican candidates are still in .operation, they will cease to exist as soon as a graceful re treat can be made. This is the situation withregard to Republi can national politics, and it was brought about during the past two weeks. Financial interests in the East have made certain the nomina tion of Mr. Taft. These interests started out to force the nomina tion of one of the allied candi dates. There was a liberal ex penditure of money in promoting the candidates of those opposed to the candidate who had the 0. K. of the author of ' 'my policies. ' ' During the past ten days the great moneyed interests, accord ing to a very high authority here, came to a realization of the fact that the fight against the nomi nation of Mr. Taft was a hope less one. Also fearful least Mr. Roosevelt should jump in and take the nomination himself, this element decided to get aboard the j Taft band-wagon. As between Taft and Roosevelt there was no hesitation in making a choice. According to my informant, who is one of the best posted men in the nation on matters political, this was only a prelimi nary move in a game that has for its object the selection of the man who will be the next president The great financial interests have figured that it would be easier to sway the action of the nominat ing conventions than to influence the election. These interests, after a careful observation of re cent political history, came to the conclusion that Roosevelt could defeat any man who might be nominated for the presidency. Roosevelt was the one Republi can whom they did not want, so they decided to get behind Taft and make certain his nomination. In this calculation William Jen nings Bryan figures. The inter ests, according to the gentleman who vouches for this information, believe that Bryan could defeat Mr. Taft, and for this reason have decided to make the fight against the nomination of the Nebraskan at Denver. In other words, the Secretary of War is the most acceptable'man in sight to the element mentioned, and rather than fight him for the nomination with the chance of losing, it has been decided to transfer the warfare against Mr. Bryan. The financial inter ests are of the opinion that Tafi can defeat Johnson or any other democrat whose nomination has been suggested in place of Mr, Bryan. These people are afraid of both Bryan and Roosevelt. They think they have eliminated T. R. by flocking to the support of Taft, and they hope to elimi nate Bryan at Denver. There is a great deal in this story, which comes from a former democrat, now affiliated with the Republi can party. I happened to . know that redouDiea ertorts are now being made to prevent Mr. Bryan from securing two-thirds of the delegates at Denver. This plan of campaign, which has been carried on in the east, is now be ing extended to the south. There is N much evidence here that fight is going to be made at the North Carolina state convention to send an uninstructed delega tion to the national convention.

Commence ment May 9-13 Baseball Rutherford College Correspondence. 25th. On Friday night, April 24th, at 8 o'clock, there was held in the college chapel a debate be tween representatives from Mars Hill College and Rutherford College. The query for discus sion was "Resolved, That ag gregated wealth in the hands of corporations is proving detri mental to the welfare of the people of the United States." Mars Hill, having the affirmative, was-represented by Messrs. J. B. Eller and J. S. Battle, while Messrs. W. F. Starnes and J. F. Moser represented Rutherford and defended the negative. It was a very spirited contest, the discussion being both entertain ing and instructive. These young men all acquitted them selves with great credit The committee, composed of Prof. Anderson Weaver, of Davenport College; Professor Avent, super intendent of the Morganton graded school, and Mr. Roberts, an attorney of Asheville, decided that Rutherford won in the con test by a very small margin. It is to be hoped that an annual de bate between these two institu tions can be arranged. Nothing can speak more convincingly of the high grade of work done at these institutions of learning than the able way in which the question was discusser1 last night Invitations to the commence ment exercises of Rutherford College are being but in the mail.

Meaning of the Appalachian Reserve Misunderstood by Many, and It is Therefore Clearly Set Forth. "Forest" in Charlotte Observer. Many have misunderstood the meaning of the Appalachian for est question. False and mislead ing statements have been scat tered broadcast. It has been said that the government would drive the people from .their homes. Nothing could be more untrue. The government plans to buy timberland of those wTho wish to sell at a fair price. In stead of destroying homes and turning the region into a wilder ness, it will bring business into the section. It will encourage the farming of land more suited to farming than other uses. It will permit grazing so long as this does not hurt the range and the forests. It will permit the cutting of timber where that does not damage the forests. It will permit mining, where miner als exist, as it does in the West ern national forests. The gov ernment will help pay the local taxes, 10 per cent of the gross receipts from timber sales and other forest uses going to the county. The government will protect the forests against fire. It will check the approach of the timber famine. It will make floods less common and danger ous. In selling timber the gov ernment will give the preference to people living in and near the woods rather than to outsiders. Good roads will be built into the woods and these will be open to the public. More or less work with wages will be furnished in building roads, getting out tim ber and protecting the forests. Some will be needed to help in planting trees like poplar and oak, which are growing scarce. The measure will aid directly the interests of the local community, the State, the 'section and the nation. It is a part of a great movement which seeks to con serve, for the. highest use of all the people, our great natural re sources and to prevent the turn ing of the country into a desert, as has already -been done in large sections of the old world.

Oak Ridge, Va., Dispatch, 22nd. The first anniversary of the death of Theodore Estes, who was shot and killed by Judge William G. Loving for alleged be trayal of his daughter, wras ob served to-day by the unveiling of a handsome monument erected in memory of the young man. The fund for the monument was raised by an association formed for the purpose, composed almost exclusively of ladies who believe that young Estes was innocent of the offence charged against him. The killing of young Estes by Judge Loving occurred at Oak Ridge station, April 22, 1907. Judge Loving was at the time manager of the Oak Ridge estate of Thomas F. Ryan, the New York millionaire. According to the testimony at the trial Judge Loving's young daughter had told her father that young Estes had drugged and wronged her while out driving. The father immediately hunted up Estes and without asking for an explana tion shot an instantly killed him. On the strength of his daughter's testimony he was acquitted of the charge of murder. A COMMON MISTAKE. Many women mistake kidney and bladder troubles for some irregularity peculiar to the sex. Foley's Kidney Remedy corrects irregularities and makes women well. Miss Carrie Harden, Bowling Green, Ky., writes: "I sufTered much pain from kidney and bladder trouble until I started to use Foley's Kidney Remedy.
