PATRIOT, Greensboro, N C WEDNESDAY, JULY 5, 1899. Tdjc last session of congress created jui industrial commission tor the purpose of- investigating the industrial situation of the county to the end that remedial legislation might be euggestedjo correct existing evils. This com -mission has proceeded with its work along certain lines that were not thought of by the creators, and as a result much testimony has been received that is very distasteful to Republicans in high places. "It was not anticipated that when the probe should be inserted into the trusts such horrible truths would be revealed, nor was it believed that those who have fattened their purses under the operation of the Republican policy of protection would attack the party that gave them the opportunity to enrich themselves, but we can never tell what a day will bring forth. In stead of proving beneficial to .the Republican cause, much of trie tes timony has furnished campaign material for the opposing forces which. will be hard to meet. Re publicans recognize the effects which the damaging evidence will have upon the presidential cam paign, and every effort- will be made to offset its influence. Dem ocrats are already taking advant age of the statements which have been made under oath before the commission, and there is a great demand for printed testimony of H. O. Havemeyer, the sugar king, who dealt such stinging blows at protection. It has been the universal testimony of wit nesses that the purpose of all ag gregations of capital is to monopo lize trade and control prices, and all have agreed that the consumer will be the sufferer when the com binations succeed in the accom plishment of their purpose. Have xneysr, however, capped the climax when he candidly stated that it was the sole object of corporations to drive all competitors out of the business, that they might have ab solute control of the trade and get all out of the public possible. The opinion is held by many that the blighting 'power of the trusts cannot be destroyed by the enactment of state laws, inasmuch as such laws as might be passed can never be enforced by the offi ciaU and the courts. Be that as it may the following from the Phila delphia Record is sound logic: "The remedy for the trust evil is not in the making of new bad laws which cannot be enforced, but in the repeal of the mischiev bid bad laws of which roue character has been demonstrated. In this has1 con sisted nearly all the legal reforms of the last q uarter of a century. Repeal of th protective duties in favor of manufactured commodi ties of which! this country is an ex porter would accomplish more to destroy the power of the trusts than all the vindictive state laws, like that of Michigan, which might be placed upon the statute books. It is manifest to all but protection ist fanatics that high protective duties, in prohibiting foreign com petition, enable the trusts to con centrate production, control prices and despoil the masses of con sumers." " ' ' , The fact that President HfWrt,. ley strenubulsly insists upon the continuance of the press censor ship established at Manila will not inspire the public "with confidence in the conduct of the war in the Philippines. : This military cen sorship of newt from the; seat of war .has already been described by a correspondent at the front as surpassing in severity that estab lished by the infamdusWeyler in Cuba. It Hs surprising that such methods should be sanctioned by an American administration. It is amazing that they should be more than tacitly sanctioned that "an American president should himself issue orders for their rigid enforce ment. Several years ago some of the leaders of the Mormon church en tered politics in behalf of the Re publican party, and as a result of their ' deal many of the Mormon Democrats ceased to observe the tithing law of their church. This has had a bad effect on the finan cial affairs of the church, which are now in bad shape, and a meet ing of prominent Mormons has been called to consider the matter. One would naturally think, the Mormons had their hands full de fending the doctrines of their church without going over into the Republican party looking for trouble. - - Every tax-payer ?4n tSuilf ord county should attend the 'road con-: gress here on Tuesday, August lst, which will be the first day of the gala week and 1 firemen's tourna ment. Prof. F. A. Holmes, state geologist, will deliver an address on the subject of good roads, and, we venture the assertion that it will be worth going miles to hear.! No man in the state has a richer fund of information on this sub ject, and if you attend you will hear something both entertaining and instructive. McLean the Ohio Man. Cincinnati, Jnly 3. Dispatches announcing a conference in Chi cago, yesterday, of W. H. Hin richen and others, with Samuel B. Cook, of the ways and means bu reau of the Democratic national committee, at which it was thought the next ticket would- be f-.W. Jl Bryan, of Nebraska, arid Allen W Thurman, of Ohio, caused quite a stir among the Democrats here. Although Colonel James Kil bourne, of Columbus, and others, are making active canvasses for the Democratic nomination for Governor, it is claimed by the Democratic leaders here that John R. McLean, proprietor of The Cin cinnati Enquirer, will be the nomi nee of the State convention, at Zanesville, next month, and in any event, that he will be the Ohio man presented to the next Demooratib national convention. It is thought by the leaders here, that the con ference at Chicago was in anticipa tion of the McLean movement. - Yellow Pever in Heir York. ' New York, June 30. John Johnson, mate of the Norwegian steamship Krim, was removed to Swinburne Island Hospital this afternoon, suffering from yellow fever, and to-night his condition is serious. The Krim sailed from Hvna on June 20 for Matanzas, arriving at that port the same day. Mate Johnson, who had been ail ing, was taken severely ill two days after the arrival at Matanzas. The port physician was called in, but up to the time of sailing for this port on June 24, although the man developed high temperature, no suspicious symptoms appeared.

J2-Wt - ADDITIONAL LO CAL: ; , Tho Dispensary. in Operation Y At 10 o'clock Friday night the bar rooms of the city closed their doors to giveaway to the dispensary, which was duly opened at 6 o'clock Saturday morning. ' y.t v i . : - j 7 ;' The last legal fight against the establishment of-the dlspemary was made Friday before Judge Timberlake at chambers. The papers that were served on the members ;of the board of managers cited them to appear before His Honor an show cause why they should not be attached for contempt of court in disobeying Judge Bryants order, though on the trial but little was heard of how or when thtywero in contempt. A temporary restraining order was also asked for. .s The prosecution was represented by John N. Staples, -'L. M. Scott and Thomas Settler CcL Morehead, John; N. Wilsoii, A. L. Brooks and j A. It. Scales 'appeared for the dispensary board. The entire afternoon was con sumed in the argument, which was in the main a repetition of the argument formerly made before Judge Bryan. At the conclusion of the hearing Judge Timberlake refused to interfere in any way with Judge Bryan's order dissolv ing the restraining order previously granted, thus leaving the dispensary board free to proceed according to law. As has been before stated in these col umns, an appeal was taken from the ruling of Judge Bryan, though it does not interfere with the operation of the dispensary. j I I The-dispensary Is conveniently lo cated in the Jones and Taylor build ing, on South Elm street, formerly oc cupied by Shoffner's bar.
