Many hundreds were present to join in doing honor to Mr. Stevens and as a token of the high appreciation the State feels in the honor bestow ed upon one of her citizens. Our correspondent who writes about "Just one thing after anoth er," touching on ardent spir its, lets it be known that a pretty good quality of Craven county corn liquor or Martin county applebran dy can be had for $1.50 per gallon, which is only about one-fourth of the price in these parts, according to reports.

Lo^s of farmers are planting more and more land to alfalfa and taapedeaa every season for hay and grating. Why not add these for regulation, also? For it is possible to produce so much of these that the cslyea and cows cannot con sume it. As a sequence, Vn over production df cattle is possible. So goee it?but so far seen or heard Gov.

Judge Mcekins administered more than a 1 aoore of aontencea of three years ' and a day at Atlanta or Chili- ' cothe. ' An old negro?Henry Griffin-had been found guilty and had been given the cuatomary aentence of three yeara. ' "Have you anything to aay before ' you are taken out?" Judge Meekine ' aaked in a kindly voice. 1 "Nawthin1, boss; cept'n?" 1 "Excepting what?" prompted the ( judge "'Cept'n that 'yo' folks 'round 1 year auttingly ia liberal with other ! peoples' time. Das all Ah go: to say." 1 ( The liquor business down in East- > ern Carolina lent as profitable as ' ft onca was. This is due to several 1 things. In the first place folks 1 aren't buying as much liquor as 1 they were a couple of years ago, owing to the fact that Ahey haven't I got the money to spare. In the | second place, the period of depres sion has sent a greater number of folks into the liquor business. Com- ' petition for business is mighty keen. ? More liquor probably is being pro duced than ever before, but the ' market is very inactive. 1 In other words, the law of supply 1 and demand has hit "the manufac- ' ture andf sale of liquor Just as it apparently has hi$ every other line 1 of business. Too much liquor is be- i ing produced and too little is being < consumed. The result ]s that the price has been forced down to 1 around $1.50 a gallon and every bootlegger has a large supply on hsnd Therf's one thing that mu.t be said In favor of liquor tiafflklng " Eastern North Carolina, and that is that the atuff evidently !? pure, from a comparative stand point. I dont believe I ever have heard of any one going blind from drinking Craven County Corn or Martin County Brandy. Home grown materials and suppliee are used in the manufacture of the liqu or and there la none of this foreign matter which ao often 1* used up North and1 In other sections of the country. The greatest worry Judge Meek ina has to put up with comes along after a caae is concluded and sen tence has been pronounced. Imme diately thereafter a flood of law yers and relatives appear before him. begging for a lessening of the sentence. It la not often tha,t their efforts are rewarded with any greet degree of success. There were three esses where husbands and wives received sen tences of three years each. In all three instances, the husband was sent Off to prison first They'll stay there three years, following which they will return home. Then the wives Will begin their sentences. ItVi a ease of where the poor chil dren wfll be crying; "Here cornea papa-there goes mammal" Talking about liquor, and such ( things, I always liked the story of , the inebriated gentleman who bump ed feito a strange and haughty lady| on the street and then proceeded to ( apologise in profuse and eloquent ( manner. She reguardedhlm with an expression of disdain. "Sir!" she exclaimed, "I dont' know you from Adam." |? "You hle-ought tot" he replied ( genially W*re not hic-dreseed at an alike." I " I And there la a yarn, too. of the , pair ol drunks who were driving home from a wild party. The car , was going from one side of the - road to the other. I "George," mild No. I. "If I were ( you. I believe I'd drive )ert a lliUe bit more carefully." J "8 all right with me, frank, but I thought it waa you that was doing the driving." ( i 1 I've heard a lot of folks aay that snot our 81s and ailments today trom a bssineee, agricultural and fi- ] sandal point of view-are due to prohibition. That's mighty interest ing.
