Ashley Home's sudden death at his home at Clayton yes terday morning about one o'clock will be heard of with' sincere re gret throughout the . State. For, though a prominent citizen, he became known to the people of the State in his campaign for the nomination for Governor five _years ago. He lost the goal of his ambition, but gained in the es timation of the people. He came home from the war a poor Con federate soldier, but wonderful business ability and honest toll filled his life with success. He Justly wears the name of patriot and philanthropist. If he had lived a few weeks longer he would have seen unveiled in Ral eigh a magnificent monument to the heroism of North Carolina wo men in the civil war made possible by his munificenM^^ "What the devil does Oscar Un derwood want to go to the Senate for?" usks "Savoyard", one of the most interesting and best posted writers at the nation's capital. And the question seems altogeth er pertinent, though the language is a mite unchaste. Mr. Under wood's standing as a statesman is fixed as the leader of the House in the revision of the tariff with which his name is inseparably linked. His is a place of com manding preeminence. Should he go to the Senate, nothing would be added to his fame. The fact that he has to scramble with the "Hero of Santiago" will rather de tract from the honor. If he wins, in the Senate he will, as It were, have to start at the foot of the class. Then, why should it to him be any special goal of ambi tion. Governor Sulzer is no more Governor of New York. • On last Friday he was convicted by the impeachment court of New York State. Upon three of Ihe eight ar ticles of impeachment he was con victed, one of which was making a false statement of contribu tion* for his campaign,, Murphiy, the Tammany Chief, brought about his undoing, because he would not do Murphey'a bidding. Had Sul zer been perfectly square in his campaign fund statement, he, no doubt could have warded off the attack. Though Impeached, he atlll haa friends frho are standing with him, and he is encouraged to again enter politics. In fact he ia already In the race for assem blyman and expects to go high er. The country Is to be afflicted for awhile by the presence of the notorious English suffragette, Mrs. Emmeline Parkhurst. She was de tained for several days at Ellis Is land, and finally allowed to land. She will fill some engagementa to lecture, If ahe behaves lieraelf, than she will have to pack her belongings and return to England. She it claaaed in the "undesirable citlsen" Hit. Senator La one ot the most distinguished men in public Ufe in America, will lecture In Raleigh next Tuesday night under under the auaplces of Meredith College. No doubt a large as aetnblage will greet him. Polk Miller, the famoua Southern humorist and impersonator, the' "before-the-war" negro, died sud denly at his home In Richmond Monday night. Southwest AUnunce. Cor. of The Gleaner, Dr. O. A. Foster of Liberty has bought the Company store st Kimesvllle, snd is selling t he good a st cost. Mrs. Charlie Albright died at her 9 home In Liberty a few days ago. She had been In a lingering con dition for a long time and her doath waa not unexpected. She leaves a husband and five email children, an aged mother and two brothers. Cotton and tobacco grffwers are very much pleased with the prices they are getting for their crops though not much of either has been marketed yet. Corn crops are much better than taat year. Some of the patrons of the schools say it Is an injustice to to the small pupils to not open the schools until all the larger ones get ready. Small children can go now and in mid-winter . they cannot if they have any dis tance to go, which many of them have, while the larger ones can go In any kind of weather. William T. Oardner, a promi nent farmer of Bdgecombf county, dH4 Saturday at hia home of mer curial poison taken by mistake for fcaadache medicine. G6v. Craig haa announced hia purpose to Join the road worjing forces on Hood Roads Days, No vember sth and Mb. j Chapel HOI Letter.* Cor. of The Gleaner. Chapel Bill, Oct. 39-Tfa* regis tration number at the State Unlvr ■ity hat reached 177, exceeding by 40 the total number of atudenta ever registered in the whole of any year. There are over 100 more atudenta here now than at any previous time in the history of the Institution. And with the exception of the University . of of Texas, which is co-educational, the number of students 'matricu lated. exceeds the number of any other Southern College In the ac ademic department. It la note wArth that 90 percent of thia large student body are sons of North Carolina, coming from 89 countlea in the State. Twelve counties are not represented, namely: Gra ham, Clay, Swalm, Transylvania, Rutherford, Mitchell, Polk,. Bruns wick, Dare, Currituck, Stokes and Avery, all of which counties are located in the western or eaatern extremities of the State. There are sev£n counties that have only a single representative at the University; namely, Cherokee, Gates, Greens, Jones, Moore, Washington an dWautauga. Of the counties that contribute large delegations ot students, are, Meck lenburg leading with 41, Orange, Guilford and Wake ilelng with 34 each, Wayne S3, Diirham 22, John ston 22, Alamance 20, Granville 18; Forsyth 27, Buncombe 27, Wilson 17, Howan 16, Duplin 15, Roberson 4, Macon, Beaufort, New Hanover 13 each, Cumberland 12, Davidson, Wilkes, Union 11 each, Burke 10, Edgecombe and Iredell 9 each, Yudkin 8, Rockingham, Lenoir; and Randolph 7 each, Jackson, Henderson, Alexander, Chatham,, 'Vance, Bertie, Carteret 6 each. « The Home and Farmstead, a weeKly farm Journal of Gerogla, in commending the aims and pur poses of the Bureau of Extension of the University, among other complimentary things, has this to say in an editorial in its recent is sue : "At Chapel Hill there, is, acute recognition of the fact that an attic philosopher has values, but not his full value until he reaches and impresses the democratic mul titudes. However worthful and valuable a man may be, "the re sults of his labor ought not to be hermetically sealed in a glass case and set on a shelf in an ac ademic workshop." The purpose of the University in undertaking the extension work is that of mak ing the campus co-extensive with the borders of the State and to carry aid, in so far as it can, to every nook and corner of North Carolina. Already some 200 or more topics looking to the better ment ot community life have been arranged by the University faculty to be delivered from the lecture platform in as many "communities all over the State. "Resolved, That the Constitution of North Carolina be ao amended us to allow the initiative and refr ernedum in State-wide legisla tion," is the query selected-by the High School Debating Union of North Carolina to be discussed by the secondary and High Schools in the State having mem bership in the Debating Union. A pamphlet containing argumen'a on both sides of the question is being prepared in Chapel Hill and will be ready for distribution to all the schools In the debating union by the first of November. The phe nomenal success of the debating union last year, in which 380 stu dent debaters in North Carolina discussed the question of "Woman Suffrage," Is reason for a bright forecast of the work of the debat ing union in the State this year. Active work has begun in the construction of tha $60,000 dining hall of the University, the struct ure going up on the alt* of the old Gore residence. The tearing away of the Gore residence remov ed from Chapel Hill one of the residencea of primitive Chapel Hill —more than a century ago. The presiding professor made his home in this dwelling house and the datea ita existence back Into the days when a single atudant made up the entire student body. Five gamea yet remain on Caro lina's ftfotbaU schedule for 1913. The dates and where to be played are, Virginia Polytechnic Insti tute at Winston-Salem October M; University of Georgia at Athens, Oa„ November 1; Waablngton and Lee University at Lynchburg, Va., November •; and Virginia at Richmond on Thankagivlng Day. Chas. B. Robinson of Lincolnton sent President Wilson, by parcels post, a sweet potato that weigh ed near seven pounds.

These appalling facta should warn us that after sickness, colds, over work or any other drains upon strength, Scott's Emulsion should be promptly and regularly used be cause tubercular genus thrive only In a weakened system. The tested and pruven value of Scott's Emulsion is recognized by the greatest specialists because its medical nourishment assimilates quickly to build healthy tissue; aids in the development of active, life-sustaining blood corpuscles; strengthens the lungs and builds physical force without reaction. Scott's Emulsion is used in tuber culosis camps because of its rue body-building, blood-making prop erties and because*it *Tjnr as alcohol or habit-forming drug.

Recently the health officer of one of the best counties in the State wrote to State headquartera enclosing a letter from a cltlsen of his county giving the following facts:" More than twenty-five cit izens within the corporate limits of his town positively refused to privies cleined In compliance with the town ordinance; lots of ty phoid in town; one young man dead of it and a bad caae In one of the parts of town; much well water apparently. In fected with typhoid germs; hog pens in corporate limita, with no ordinance against them. In view of that condition of af fairs, the county health officer asked for advice. The reply was that under the public health law city and county boarda of health can make such rules and regula tions as they may see fit to ad vance the public health, and that the conditions complained of could eaaily be abolished if the people wanted It abollahed. Further, un der the lafe, such thinga might be declared a nuiaance and abated by the county health officer or county physician. While that was a deplorable state of affalra in that town, there is encouragement to be derived from the letter. - It showed that the folks are getting.waked up on health matters. It is not probable that five years ago such a letter would have been written in North Carolina. It all emphaaises the good that is being accomplished by the em ployment of health officers to de vote all their time to work in the counties. Eleven counties now have such whole time health offi cers. That is more than in- any State in the Union. It is s fact alao that any county public health work Is further advanced In fcorth Carolina than in any other state. When it Is remembered thrt we have had a whole time State Health Officer for only four years and that the codnty work has been pushed "only during the past year, the recordis made rather remark able. vf..i m.,* At the conference of county health officers of the State held in .Raleigh this week was one of, the most important meetings of health officers ever held in Nprth Carolina, the principal matter dis cussed was how the State Board of Health could help the count/ offi cers, corelatlng Its work with theirs, and the work of one comity with that of the others. Uniform methods of carrying on the work were taken up, and as a result the State headquarters will shortly Issue blanks and forms needed to help .the counties. Methods of quarantining contag ious diseases and school sanitation were also talked about with profit, and It was brought out that there already a * fairly uniform sys tem. The time is coming when the uniformity will be complete, and then the work will grow fast In fruitfulness. DEATH TOLL OF CONSUMPTION. Aboat 0,000 a Year ia a lata from the Dlaease—How to Reduce the Hate. There are about 8,000 deaths each year in North Carolina from tuberculosis. This number van be reduced one-half (n the next few years if all the people of the State can be a routed to thf need of cu rative and preventive messures necessary. The cauae of tubercu loaii la infection from tome one wljo ha* the disease. The cause of this infection is carelessness on on the part of the sick peaon. The symptoma of the disease are a run down condition, a cough, blood spitting, and night sweats. The care for Tuberculosis Is fresh air all day and all night and good nourishing food. Drugs and pat ent mdicines do not cure, but of ten make the disease worse. Now, this gospel must be preached from end to end of our Btate until every man, woman and child knows it. It means the sav ing of thousand! of lives, and the prevention of untold suffering. It will help thousands of children from becoming orphans and thou sands of husbanda and wives from being widowed. Is it not worth while T The Red Croee Xmsa "Seals or Stamps, will be sold this year to Create Interest In this work, and to furnish funds to head off the depredations of this disease. Cit ieas in every city and town in the State should write the State Red Cross Seal Committee, at Charlotte for particulars of the sale of these stamps. Thay will help to atamp out tuberculoma In every commu nity where they are sold, both by creatin interest in the fight and furnishing funds to carry it on. m*alas. js.'MK'Rajws.. JZL.

Robertson, County Superintendent ot SchoolV, urging them to organ ize and plan for working the roads on "Good Roads Days," November Mh- and 6th. The plan for organ ization la good. Bffective work cannot be done without organiza tion, and the Superintendent has fallen on a good Idea. He has set the pace, let. others in other positions private and public adopt the Idea. Work worth something can be done, If the peo ple will go about it in a system atic and orderly way. The, following is Prof. Robert son's letter : Dear Committeeman : As a brother in the service, 1 desire to call jfour special atten tion to an .important proposition that is not strictly educational, but It is none the less vital to the business,- pleasure and life of every citizen and should interest and win the favor of every progressive, pa triotic citlzeif In the bounty. The governor of our State has issued his proclamation that the sth and 9th days of November of this year be set apart for working the roads of our State. In this proclamation he has called upon every class and condition of men to go forth on those days as one great band and mighty army to work our rOadi. This is a plan big and broad to accomplish a most important and much needed work, and it should be Joined into heartily by every one and made bring to pass splendid results. I write to enlist -your help and co-operation with that of every other school committeeman in the county in this important work. May I expect it T . The school committeemen, who so uniformly and completely cover the county, can do much to make these red letter days in road improvement in our county, and days long to remembered with pleasure. May I ask that you talk for the movement, that you plan for It, and that when November sth comes you will go out and work for it? See the other members ot your committee, arrange starting starting places for the work at various points in the community. Announce these places and plans several days before the sth that people may know them and gather in bands and work aystematically, and to advantage. Let us plan the caftpalgn so completely and Join in the work so heartily that not a road In Alamance county in need of repairs will be left unworked. When calls have been made for the men of Alamance to go to war and give their Uvea to the cause of their country, the response has been prompt. The sacred soil of our fertile fields has been bap tised by the blood of their own men who were ready and lirst to answer duty's call. Let us, the men of to-day, the men of peace, be Just as ready, be Jjjst as true, be Just as patriotic. As for me, I expect to be found in the ranks, head, heart, and with shovel in hand.
