Ibis tuple nf State wiile ini(nrtani but iii'tiif t ly, we have an expression with Hie gnml. old Reliable l int; t it. Tliis nim.-sn tin form of a letter from that distinguish ed Rchismatist, the Hun. K J. Jnstiie of Greensboro, carried beneath wholly typical. home-made headlines. A pleasurable sensation was augmented by rapid stages as the eye fell upon these head lines: "A word to Toad ies of Tobaii'o trust Thrift follows fawning The liuving of I'lilt-Ialged Bonds by the Trust Ioes not Lessen or Remove the d, ligation of the Democratic I'arty to Pass a Real Anti-Trust Law to Take the Place of the Pink Tea Subterfuge that inv Cumbers tin- Statute I looks." With that start the letter of Mr. Justice necessarily pioveil satisfying. The editor of the Vews and observer has not yet brought himself to the point of approaching this delicate sub ject editorially, as we h ae said, but his sentiments are thus amply ex pressed through the medium of head lines and raised type And if those headlines were satisfying. Hie letter of the gentleman from Cieensboro was equally so. We ben have to copy freely from tins let as. largely be cause or what is s.ud .. Ixiitt a water POWer trust We blliee that tile letter Is worthy of consiiferatinn To the Kditot : May 1 be permitted to say publicly a word with referent to the sale of the North Carolina bonds. The purchase of one million dollars of these bonds by the Ameri can Tobacco Company is apt to mag Blfy the importance of a certain class of citizens who are "toadies ' to t Iti: corporation, and to similar special in terests. It may not be out of plao just now to state the case accurately The general assembly of r.tOH as Burned that North Carolina four per cent bonds would sell at pur or above par, Btid made no provision against the contingency that the market for , securities throughout the United States would ro decline by the sum mer of 1910. that even these high- class securities would not bo gladly taken at par or above. Husiness pru dence and ordinary foresight were ex ercised by the legislature in its course. The Republicans promised a degree of prosperity in the event of .Mr. Taffs election, which, if half of it had been realized, would have guaranteed sat isfactory prices for the bonds I have no sympathy with the Cat '..vie com mittee or the Republican newspapers that have tried to discredit the State bonds. If they are so lacking in in tegrity and patriotism that they are capable of such n course they are without the pale, und no preaching will help them. It is not worth while to "sins; psalms to a dead home," and It Is not to answer these that I write. 1 m glad the bond situation has been relieved so that a special session of the legislature is not necessary on this account. If, however, a special session of the General Assembly would have resulted In tne passage of an ef- . fective anti-trust law that would have saved the Btate from a combination of Its greater water powers it would . have run worth whilo and I would havs been glad to see it for this pur pose, and on this account. I fear that before the' next legisla ture meets the water power trust , will be a thing accomplished, and the difficulties In protecting the people win nave increased, by reason of "vest ed rights' and other legal kindred questions.' The men responsible for the American Tobacco trust will reap the rewards of the Carolina Water Power trust When the (problems Krowtpg out or this situation, con front the state for solution, there . will b those who will demand im munity from criticism of Messrs. Duke and others, because they earns to the relief of the State In this "our hour of trouble. It will be a long time before the Jol.by ar this corporation, and its sue. elal representatives In the coming legisiuuirt cease io exioi the patriot ism of the officials of the American Tobacco company as exemplified bv the purchase of one million dollars of Mate bonds. -- v Just one more word concerning v bnt we may term the political uiv..-t if i it siniHttnu. We recently giVe expression to some wonder as to. the identity of the person or persons who had performed the diplomatic mission of drawing the attention' of the trust to its manifest duty or opportunity, In the premises. Mr. Justice is of the opinion that this bond sale is "apt to magnify the importance" of statesmen who were Instrumental in bringing about this sale. Whom, may we Inquire, does the former Speaker of the House of Rep resentatives suspect? rrmxci it mildly. The Charlotte Observer probably lid not notice how wu were longing to see an expression of its opinion re- pecting certain performances of its superior fiend, John Motley More- head, but our contemporary has nevertheless given us, indirectly, a line on how it stands. It thinks that the ancient worthy whose impreca tion look the form of a desire that his enemy should write a book would loubtless, if she came back to earth just now, prefer composing a letter as ii more certain and more powerful trouble-breeder." Thereupon, as cases in point, the Observer directs atten tion to the recently disclosed love let ters of Prof. Peck, and to the uolili- I letters recently sent out by More- head ui.d.r hia government frank. w liich is designed to carry public doc uments. Here is the way our con temporary views the Moreheau method of keeping down his postage bills: "Turihemore, not a few pa pers are suggesting with very great truth that Mr. Morehead exceeded H bounds of propriety In mailing -uch letters under his official frank." So our contemporary is really con trained to the opinion that Morehead lias "exceeded the bounds of pro priety." We have an idea that this very deliberate, ami very judicious, com lusion will not be successfully challenged. The aviators know what it is to be borne aloft on the wings of the morn ing; occasionally, also, they come to a feeling understanding of the ex pression, a sudden dull thud. It is upon this occasion that a kind heart d public must pity the sorrows of the several mountain parties just now .using in the tall, uncut. Personally, we doubt very much whether we shall ever fly from New York to Philadelphia. A t'aing like that is calculated to create a disturbance in a place like Philadelphia. They might call that new party the Big Stick party. Now Isn't that Hamilton a bird? t t PRESS COMMENT.

London CfcilulOQ, 1 E VIEWS TO BE EXHIBITED Stereopticon at Palace Theater Will Show How Tuberculo sis Fight Is Carried On. The union printers of this city in their efforts to secure a more general use of the union label on the printed matter which the business and pro fessional men use, will show stereop ticon views of the Union Printers Home at Colorado Springs, Col., at the Palace theater tomorrow after noon and night. These views are shown for the purpose of demonstsnt ing the fact that the union printers of the country are doing a great work for themselves nnd for the public, and that they deserve the recogni tion of husiness and professional men, to the extent that the union label be used by those having printing done. This label is designed as a guarantee that the printing is well done by union men. The physicians of this town, as well as the medical profession all over the country, highly endorse the work which the Typographical union is do ing in the tight against tuberculosis. The following letter from Dr. Paul Patiuin, addressed to the president of the Asheville Typographical union is an indication of the opinion that the local physicians have of the work of the union printers: "My Dear Sir: In replying to your questions with reference to my opin ion as to the work of your Institution for the benefit of its members, I beg leave to state that I am better pre pared to speak about the health side than tb question of recommending utiior labels for the work of Typo graphical union. At the meeting of the International Congress on Tuber culosis last year, 1 saw your fraterni ty's exhibit of its sanitorium and methods of treatment and care of the tubert ular among your people. I was very much impressed with the earn est and thorough work done among you for the prevention of tuberculo sis. 1 became influenced with the conviction that yours is not an asi citition for despotism and "Trust methods" of doing business but a sympathetic one deserving the good will of the people in general. I hope to see your stereopticon exhibits here and wish you success in your efforts to arouse public interest There can be no question of the great merits of your great congregation, and I be speak for you all kindly consideration of your propositions and claims. Very sincerely, "PAUL FAQUIN, M. D." I T Prowlers Overlooked Only One Old Hen in Dr. Reynolds' Fine Flock in Edgemont. Chicken thieves ere again abroad in tlie land.
