NOBTH CABOLINA'S CONTBI BUTION TO AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP. Baleigh News-Observer. North Carolina has given her life blood most freely to the building up of other States. To-day 236,037 na tive born North Carolians reside in other Commonwealths. She has con tributed to American citizenship the best that the notion has to show. In the colonial period her people stood boldly for liberty, self-government, freedom from excessive taxation and official tyrany. In adopting the Con stitution she stood for all the amend ments which were afterwards acc epted and which now form the con stitutional basis of our liberties. It was her sons, Andrew Jackson and Thomas H. Benton, who wiped out all traditions and tendencies of monarchy and aristocracy, and plant ed deep in American soil the tree of Democracy. I It was her son, James K. Polk, who annexed Texas and extended the American Bepublic from the At lantic to the Pacific. ' It was her son, William A. Gra ham, who opened the doors of Japan to civilization, and thus made a be ginning ot final settlement of the Asiatic question. It was her son, Andrew Johnson, who had the North Carolina grit to jeopardize his great office, by op posing the coercive measures of Re construction directed against an in tegral part of the Union. , It was her son, Richard J. Gatling, iwho promoted peace by inventing the death-dealing Gatling gun. Her sons have done great deeds, .and thought great thoughts where- ever they have gone. No statesmen have surpassed them in intergity, purity, and patriotism. No soldiers have equalled them in steadfastness, endurance, and forttitude. They were born North Carolinians and trained in North Carolina virtues. ' They loved the family fireside and all that the family fireside means. fThey still love it, and, though they dwell now in cities or on plains, they long to go to the State of their birth, and see again the people who live as they lived in their youth; to see aain the Old North State, where. people do not grow old before their time; where youth Is, buoyant and virile; manhood is strong and sturdy, and old age is full of dignity, honor and self-respect , ; V , ;: " j Ich t evrd ia SO v&i?.u tefi by Woolfo -& Sanitary Lotion. iThiB vr fils.

Every one needs real nourishment; then comes good health, strength and endurance. Without it, you waste away. Nearly every one eats food enough to furnish the necessary nourishment for the perfect support of life, but the food is not assimilated and there follows indigestion, weak ness and emaciation. A few days' use of Mi-o-na, the wonderful flesh -forming food, will demonstrate its power to furnish real nourishment and restore health. Mi-o-na mingles with the food you eat, aids assimilation, tones up and strengthens the digestive organs and puts the whole system into proper physical condition. By its use, the fments needed to increase flesh are assimilated from the daily food and each week will show a noticeable gain in weight. J. H. Hill & Son knows personally of many cases of long standing stom ach troubles, some of them very bad, that were entirely eured with Mi-o-na.

FAVOR LEAS This aegus o'er the people's ritrAt Doth an eternal vijril keeR GOLDSBORO. K. C THURSDAY, OCTOBER PR0HIB1TE0N PROSPERS A GREAT DAY OF PBOGBESS FOB THE CAUSE IN GOLDS BOBO YESTEBDAY. The Baptist Church Thronged Last Night to Its Utmost to Hear Bev. B. C. Beaman's Thril ling Arraignment of the Liquor Traffic. Daily Argus, Sept. 28. - The high water mark was reached ! yesterday in the Anti-Saloon cam paign in our city. The Bev. B. C. Beaman, of Durham, was the central figure of the day. In . the morning he preached an eloquent and power ful sermon in St. Paul's M. E. church j from the text, "Who Gave Himself For Our Sins" etc., Gal. 1:4. The large auditorium was well filled. While the ushers were taking up the morning offering Mrs.- William Douglas sang a beautiful solo, which moved the hearts of all her hearers to deeper religious sentiment. The sermon was an eloquent and forceful presentation of the central theme of the text, the gift of God's love in the person of our Saviour. The interest of the day, however, centered in the Mass Meeting held at eight o'clock last night in the First Baptist church. By half past seven the people began to enter the build ing, and by eight o'clock the floor, the gallery, and all the Sunday School room available were crowded to their utmost capacity. The ser vices w ere entirely informal. Some singing by the efficient choir, a brief prayer by the Bev. M. Bradshaw, and a sentence or two of introduction constituted the preliminaries. Mr. Beaman is a man of commanding presence and of fine appearance on the rostrum. He spoke last night for one hour and fifteen minutes, and during the entire discourse held his audience in rapt attention. It was a large caliber, rapid fire-cannon from beginning to end, before which the walls of the enemy crumbled. He said he did not come here to bandy epithets with saloon men nor their friends, that he made no war on individuals, but upon the saloon as an institution, and this he dis cussed from three points of view: the business the humanitarian, and that of the home. All his propositions were plainly and fairiy stated, and such was the un erring power of his logic, the aptness and force of his illustrations, and the abounding pathos of the whole, that it is inconceivable that any man present, who loves Goldsboro and seeks intelligently to promote the city's wellfare, who appreciates the nobler virtues of manhood, wTould vote on the eighth of October for the saloon to continue in Goldsboro. He gave trustworthy authority for the statement that if the money which laboring men pour into barroom tills in this country within the spaco of ten years were devoted to the pur chase of homes it would provide every homeless man and woman in all this broad land with a comfort able home; that the same amount de voted to the purchase of the railroads of this country would make the la boring men, in our mines, in our factories and fields, the owners of every mile of rail over which bounds the hissing locomotive, drawing its loads of merchandise or , of human i x. tt. ireigm. xie matie a conservative estimate of the amount of monev that, if the saloons are permitted to run in; Wayne county, will be spent in them for liquor within the next ten years, and proved conclusively that it Will be sufficient to' biiv an luiuien uumes ior every man and woman in the homes to-day. county who own no The issue with us is clear cut Let 'rttuu In? s. rmna of Maltt'i- O'.k C .n luilit-B t v- r-.c red eves to tcv- no citizen of Goldsboro mistake it. It is sober business intelligence, thrift and prosperity; the cultivation of humanitarian principles, and the preservation ot the home, with all that these things imply, orit is the continuation of the saloon with all its destructive influences.

The American will say to-morrow : Senator E. W. Carmack, in an in terview here to-day,said,when asked about the publication that he would make an effort to secure the repeal of the Fifteenth Amendment: "I am sorry that the impression has been created that I am preparing to agitate this question in Congress. "A reporter was discussing with me an article I had written on the race question. He asked me if I in tended to introduce a measure for the repeal of the Fifteenth Amendment. I replied that I had not thought of doing so, but added that I might do it just to bring on a debate. That was all. "I confess that I have a great cu riosity to hear the Fifteenth Amend ment defended by the Bepublican leaders, who now take the position that the general principles of the Declaration of Independence are ap plicable only to white and not to col ored men, and who hold that the bfoVn man in the Philippines has no right that the white man in the United States is bound to respect. "At the same time, I know that ' any progress toward the repeal of the j?iiieenin Amendment depends on its not being made a partisan or sec tional question. To make it such would be to check at once a healthy growth of public sentiment. It may well be that any direct effort on the part of a Southern man for its repeal wouia result in maKing this a sec tional or party question. This must be avoided."

Wake county superior court open ed in this city at ten o'clock yester day morning with Judge Peebles on the bench.

The infor mation was not given and the venire was ordered drawn from the box The case is set for hearing Thursday, October 1st. GOVEBNMENT COTTON POBT. BE- (Speciai to the Abgus.) Washington, D.
