A wiiter in a Itqmblicjii

cratic legislature with enacting a
law making it indictable for one
man to step ou another's land. In

North Carolina has bv the act of
the last legislature a inure effective
vagrant act, a"d if vnraiitd are per
mitted to ri'timin nil the loads in
any community it will be 'iccause of
indifference or inactivity of the peo

Did you ever hear one of those
old fellows whose life has been wast
ed say: Oh, well, every young fellow
must sow his wild oata. In a recent
sermon by ltev Madison C Teeters
in Baltimore he said:
"One of the most thoroughly
abominable and dangerous maxims
is the very common one that a young
man must sow his wild oats. It is
a notion that has ruined thousands.
1 have some iv hero seen a sculptniod
representation of Bacchus, the god
of drink and revelry, lie is riding
on a panther at a furious bound.
Mow many a man timing ne Begins
his fast life that he has mounted a
well broken steed and that he can
stop it when he pleases. But he
rinds when he approar.bes tlie chasm
that he is aatriue a savage beast that
uo human power can pull up.
"There is an awful mystery m the
downward progress of Bin, and how
often do we see that men vho were
once the masters of sin become its
slave. They never intended to be
bad, but step by step, they lowered
themselves, freely indulging their
baser passions until a vicious life be
came domineering, then uncontroll
able. If the sum of all the pain
that comes from the sowing of wild
oats could be harvested it would
rend the heavens with its outcry.
The harvest that comes from sowing
wild oats is bitter disappointment, a
loveless home, a heart consumed to
ashes, the misery of the unsatisfied
and the shame of the unclean.
"Nothing ever comes from the
siren's maddening song except misery
and disappointment, ixlgar Allen
foe, one of tbe most brilliantly gift
ed men of letters America ever pro-
duced, died friendless and alone in
the streets of Baltimore before he
was 38. 'The Raven' which he saw
on the bast above his chamber door
was delirium tremens
"Only this and nothing more,"
"What a price to pay for a few
days of sensual delights? Young
men make a sad mirtake when they
tbink it necessary to have s personal
acquaintance with the seamy side of
life. The soeial vice is astonishing
ly on the increase and sapping the
physical strength and the moral
manhood of the nation. Behold the
sons of our rich aud indulgent fath
ers galloping through sennuality to
a quick, decline, enuunng tuo agon
ies of a shattered life, dying of ex
treme old age before they are 35.
1 plead with you, young men,
with an earnestness which almost
takes my breath way, avoid as yon
wonld a" malignant fiend the mocker
of woman's purity and life's holier
affections. Not one woman in a
hundred paases the portals of shame
through deliberate choice. Man's
damnable deceit and base betrayal
open the 'door. Yet society draws
back its skirts lest, percbaBce, it
touches thfl woman 't garments as
she passes, but to the man puts forth
a willing band to clasp with his,
which led ber to destruction an dis
grace. Society stones the woman,

After traveling four hum red

short line, the road over which we
were traveling runs diagonally
through Idaho in a south-easterly
uirecuon, tne railroad follows the
Snakcjriver (which winds in and out
and reminda one of a truck made bv

miles. A part of the land is very

Only a few miles from Nampa iu

SALT LAKE CITY.
Suit Luke Cin has a population
of 70,000 and is situated in one of
the richest valleys in the world.
The scenery is veiy bea'itif ul, on one
side are the YYusutch mountains,
some snow clad peuks, und on the
other side the Great Suit Luke with
mountains iu the distance.
This city has some impressive pub
lic buildings, several line hotels und
u number of costly residences owned
by the rich. Aside from these the
buildings are rather common place.
The homes are small cottages, if old,
built of adobe and if new of brick
or wood. Many of them have two
fronts. Some one suggested that
the number of fronts to a house in
dicated the number of wives belong
ing to that household.

THE GREAT UA1.T LAKE.
We arrived at Salt Lake City ut 2
p m aud hurried to get on the cars
which go out to SaltAir Beach on
the Great Salt Lake, which is thir
teen utiles from the city. At least
half of the way we rode through a
country white with salt. The waters
of the lake are rapidly receding. This
is due to evaporation, the fact thut
much of the water is being con lim
ed i l the manufacture of salt, unb
because the mountain streams which
are its source are being used for
irrigation.
The resideuti say that if present
conditions continue, in 35 years the
lake will be extinct and there will he
only a bed of salt to show where the
lake once was.
Water from tlie lake is run out
through canals into pools. After it
stands there two or three days, part
of tho water will have evaporated
aud tho other is drained off in two
weeks tho salt is dry and can be
raked in mounds. It is then taken
to the refinery and prepared for
market.
Tho. Pavillion, at Sallair is owned
by the Mormon church; it was built
twelve years ago at a cost of $350,
000. The second floor is a dancing
hall 140x250 feet without a column
or obstruction of any kind one
thousand couples have danced in tnis
hall at the same t'.me. ihe lower
floor is used for restaurant, curio
stuuds and other things. When lirst
built this pavillion extended out in
the lake half a mile. More than
half of our party "donned bathing
suits and took "a dip" in the Great
Salt Lake.
Tbe wattr is 23 per cent salt, six
times saltier than the water in the
ocean. So it is almost impossime to
sink. Human beings float on the
top. of water like cork persons have
been known to float around holding
umbrellas over tnem.

UiiAs A Edwards,
A Sign of Educational Awakening.
We are disposed to believe thut
there is no phase of the present edu
cational uwakeiiing in this State
that can be more productive of good
than the movement for theestablish-
nient of free libraries in the rural
districts.
A reading people is generally au
intelligent peop'o. The people who (
access to tne greutist union nt
of wholesome literature are the people
wlio have the greatest facilities lor
bctteiing their intellectual condi
tion. In tint rural districts in some
paiU of North Carolina the union ut
f reading done is woefully small.
The furl Ni-r dissemination of books
through the rural libraries will cause
the children to read more and will
thus aid in the cultivation of a taste
for leading that may be productive
of splcmlig results among these
people. Winston .Sentinel.
Blockade Stills.
The Weekly believes that a block-
ili'.l'..?.. lil "ln!it dangerous insti-
upon the community. In he first
place, it takes a lawless man to eli-
; m Alien a business, lie knows
he runs the risk of going to prison if
overtaken bv the ofticcrs of the law.
Therefore he must either debauch
the community or terrorize good citi-
ii.i und make them at raid to report
him. Murder and arson are some
times lesorted to by this lawless (le
nient to protect their tnillic. Gov
ernor Aycock iu his message to the
legislature of l'.KlJ said that iiiiinv
good citizens had been forced to
up their homes in the country
rather than stand in dread of this
nefarious class.
Why should not the county ofli-
ceis do their plain duty and co-operate
with the federal authorities in
ridding the rural sections of this
curse.' cbster s v eckly.
