When those who terrorized them had been killed or captured, Fili pino physicians signed voluntary state ments that 'the people's health within those American lines was fifty per cent, better than it had been in their own homes. And those people departed to their .field, at last made5 peaceful, with rejoicings On their lips that 'they had finally been rescued from their own opp'ressors, and wfith blessings on the American flag 'and the American sol diers who had worked that deliverance."

TO MISS OAVEIIPORT THE WEDDING OCCURED AT ALL SAINTS CHURCH IN BAL- TIMORE. of the church Our Waynesville correspondent makes fitting reference to the unjust restric tions placed on citizenship in this state by the requirement, that before a citi ; zen can vote he must have been a res ident of the state two years. Article vl of the constitution of North Car olina provides thait a naturalized cit izen twenty-one years old "who shall have resided in the state twelve, month next proceeding the election, and ninety days in the county in which he offers to vote shall be deemed1 an elector' . This is changed by the amendment to read "in the state of North Carolina two year, in the county six months." There vram no just and legitimate reason for the change. It was made from purely partisan considerations, on the under standing that the greatest number of the -new residents of the state are re publicans. Had Asheville held a May election this year, as it had in preced ing years, citizens who have been res ldents of the state for one year, (would hare voted at that election and found themselves disfranchised i-m the Novem ber election by this clause in the consti- xuuonai amendment that had become effective on July 1. W "That submission to one's lot means that one should sit helplessly before sorrow and disappointment "while weeks and months pass by, is a terrible mis apprehension' To yield faint-hearted is surely ignoble, for there is not life so barren, or hard1, or sorrowful, that it does not hold gome doov to wider liv ing, if we will but seek it. "Is it loneliness that closes about us and shuts joy from our days. Have we tried honestly and patiently to, touch other lonely lives Is dt because we have no time to study that life seems so hardand (barren? A friend of work ing girls advised them to learn a poem as they went to and from their work instead of simply reading street car ad vertisements. A verse, a line of poetry, a single, noble thought every day who of us could not make time for this, if we would? And how rich a harvest one short year iwould give, us! Is it pover ty that is eating the gladness from our days? It is hard; but there are things within our reach that no gold could pur chase for us friendship, the power of an upright life, the joy of earth and sky. Dare we, with all we have within reach, bemoan our poverty?" Frank H. Sweet, in Home and Flowers. Springfield, O., for April. INSURGENTS SURRENDER IN THE PHILIPPINES Manila, April 24.

THE BEST The Charges Against Judge Clark E HAVE no douM Judge "Wal- r Clark -will answer tVi ar'ges made against him by Major James W. Wilson. Th , inteident, however, is chiefly interesting ; as limstratmg present conditions in the democratic party in this state. Were , . the party united and harmonious and blessed with upright leadership Clark would have escaped this assault, either because if guilty of the charges he would not have been so important a per sonage in the present political campaign as to have drawn upon him this publi cation by a fellow democrat, or if there was doubt of his guilt that portion of the democratic press that now rejoices in the opportunity to assail him would have come to his defense. As it is now Clark is the candidate of one faction of the democratic party. By the other faction he is hated, chiefly because of , his factional connections. There is plen ty to be said against Clark as a poli tician. We (believe him to be an un scrupulous partisan, and in other wavs not nitted for the position he now holds. But we mark the source of the present attack on him and note the vivid light it casts on the present distressfulposition of the democratic party in North Caro lina. Judge Walter Clark is the only democratic representative on the bench of the Supreme court of this state. By the syndicate of politicians that now controls democratic politics in North Carolina he is slated for the democratic ' candidacy for the chief justiceship at ythe coming election. The charges ntow made against him by a prominent 'democrat, and supported by certain .newspapers that have in the past trained with the party may force the machine I 'itO TPtrifiO tVia alalsv j. - ... i ,30, ana put iorwara its second choice. How much the charges .will effect Judge Clark beyond his candidacy depends upon the proof Wil son can furnish of his allegations of misconduct on the bench. If these al legations are ptoved they can be fol- .iuwcu Dy nothing less than peachment of Judge Clark. THAT P )hl TAX MATTER It is usually held that one of the qualifications of good citizenship, is to be prompt and honest dm the payment of taxes. But this year, judging from the newspapers published in this state, there must be a lack of smdh citizens.- New Bern Journal. Despite the frequent warnings to the white voters of Rowan county over $00 white men who are liialble to a poll eax have not yet naid this tax. Only six days are left in which the votes of those who have not aid can be saved. An earnest effort has been made to induce all the white men of the dounitv tn make immediate settlement with sheriff and if the tax is not paid no one will be responsible but the voter himself.
