The young people of our town enjoyed a hay ride Thursday evening, in spite of the gloomy weather.

Miss Edith Broom left Friday morning for Monroe, to spend the greater part of the summer with her grandparents, one What Congress Did and What j WHY it Didn't Do. WashinRton Correspondence. Congress adjourned with an unsurpassed record of over one billion appropriations for one year. Just think of the exact amount-$l,008,804,894.57. It is only a few years ago that a billion dollar Congress broke the record, but now we have that enormous amount more than doubled, for appropriations now made are for one year only. As the population is now esti mated at about 84 millions, the expenditures for the coming fis cal year will exceed $12 per capi ta , or $60 per family. That is $5 a month for each man to pay in taxes to the Federal govern ment whether he is rich or poor, a business man, a farmer, or a wage earner. The Republican party certain ly is a record breaker for spend ing money, but unfortunately its record for spending will not be equaled by the receipts, for the estimate of the Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee of the receipts of the government for the coming fiscal year is $150, -000,000 less than the appropria tions. But that did not have any effect on the Republican associ ates of the Chairman, although he repeatedly warned them of the deficit for the present year of $60,000,000 and of the far greater deficit of 1909. Congress started out to do nothing but pass the appropria tion bills and to stand pat on ev erything else, and as for useful or reform legislation, it came mighty near carrying out the de signs of its leaders. At the last minute it did pass a compromise currency bill, that only seems to satisfy the Rockefeller interest in Wall Street, because it will create a market for their rail road bonds and allow them to INSTRUCTED GATES?

It could, therefore, legislate as it chooses. There was an almost universal demand for a law requiring the several political parties to publish the names of contributors and the amount contributed for cam paign funds, and to make it un lawful to accept the money from corporations. Send Men as Who Can Baltimore Sun. In a leading article Mr. W. J. Bryan's paper, the Commoner, advocates the instruction of all the delegates to the national con vention. "A failure to instruct," Mr. Bryan says, "turns the dele gates over to the party bosses." This is a rather severe arraign ment of the character of the men who are to go to the conven tion, and nit is a just criticism, then it should be the effort of the Democrats all over the land to select such representatives as can be trusted. To send men to a convention who deliver them selves to "the bosses," uniess they are restrained by instruc tions, is to send misrepresenta- tives of honest people, and not representatives. Mr. Bryan was nominated in 1896 by the free votes of the delegates to the Chicago convention. Mr. Bryan came to the convention as a member of a contesting delega tion which was afterward recog nized and seated, and he himself was nominated only after he had made his crown-of-thorns and cross-of-gold speech. His nom ination was therefore made by the free votes of the convention. We do not believe that any Dem ocratic nomination m recent years has been made by boss dictation. The object of the Denver con vention this year should be not only to nominate a good man, but a good man who can win, or who has some chance of winning. A great majority of the Demo cratic people of the country might personally favor a particu lar man, as perhaps they do at But a"great majority of this time. Democrats" cannot unaided cast enough votes to elect a President. It is perfectly apparent to all thoughtful, well-informed citi zens that in .order to succeed next November the Democratic party must nominate a man who can command not only the votes of a majority of the Democratic party, but the votes of the united party, and -along with them the votes of many people who are not Democrats and who belong to neither party. It was this in dependent vote that made the election of Mr. Tilden possible and that twice elected M r. Cleve land. The Democratic conven tion at Denver should address it self seriously to the work of find ing and nominating such a man. And the only way to do it is to confer and discuss. But if Mr. Bryan's plan is to be adopted, no convention is really necessary. The people instruct the electors at the Presidential election, and the electors so instructed send in their votes by mail and mes senger. Why not let Mr. Bryan write the platform and then let the instructed delegates of the bosses send their votes by mail, and so avoid the expense of go ing to Denver? Opportunity is beckoning the Democratic party on to the road of success. Will It now disre gard the warnings and the ad monitions of experience, throw common sense and judgment to the winds and instruct the del egations to vote blindly and without dicussion or deliberation? That is the question which confronts a historic party. Hoke Smith's Defeat a Beacon of Warning to Politicians. Washington Post.

The obsequies of Mr. Booze have been celebrated by many North Carolina poets and the last to nit up his voice m song is a citizen of Moore. To one of his fellow-citizens, who submits it as a specimen of near-poetry, we are indebted for this effort, which is too gleeful in tone to be called either a chant or a dead march, though the subject con sidered it ought by right to be one or the other: THE DEATH OF OLD BOOZE. Old Booze is dead, that good old stuff; We ne er shall taste it more; Now Prohibition is no "bluff," As all the drunkards swore. Glenn fought Old Booze a heavy fight, And many a round he gained, But on May the twenty-sixth he sent Old Booze irom our rair domain. Glenn said he'd cut the "pigeon wing" The day Old Booze would die. We don't believe he would dance a step, If the whole U. S. went dry. For Glenn's an elder in the church, The ruling kind, you know. How could he ever cut a step. With that Presbyterian toe? "Good bye, Old Booze," is what Glenn says, When by its grave he passes. "The little brown jug where you used to live Is now used for molasses." Dan. J. Campbell, Jr. Aberdeen, N. C. A Robeson County ex-Slave a Prominent Educator in Texas. The Robesonian is indebted to a friend for a clipping from The Cleburn (Tex.) Review, which contains an interesting item about a negro who was born a slave in thiscounty and has attained prom inence as an educator in Texas. The item is in regard to the com mencement of the colored school at Cleburn, and it contains the following: ' 'One of the features of th pro gramme will be an address by Prof. N. W. Harllee, who stands in the front ranks as an educator in this country. Prof. Harllee was born a slave in Robeson county, N, C, 1848. In 1879 he was graduated at Biddle Univer sity, Charlotte, N. C, with hon ors. In 1885 he came to Dallas and engaged in the profession of teaching and served for a num ber of years as principal of the colored high school of Dallas, which position he now holds. He is author of Harllee s tree oi History, Harllee's Simplified Long-division, also Harllee's Dia gram System ot Geography. ed the home product superior to the Washington brand. They cheered Hoke on, and listened for the clash of battle. But two years of turmoil, with a windup of hard times, caused the Georgians to modify their views as to the desirability of smashing the railroads. They began to see that there are sev eral kinds of reform. They won dered whether the kind they had favored was real or bogus. The specter of Possum Fat and his rider began to assume the re pulsive aspects of a nightmare. Then it was not a long jump to the conclusion that a change of methods and of Governors would be well. The vote in the large cities of Georgia indicate that the prohibi tion wave is subsiding, just as the anti-corporation wave ebbed, and for the same reason. The pendulum of popular sentiment swung too far, and it is swinging back. In places where Governor Smith's extreme anti-liquor views were the issue he lost heav ily, the majority giving their sup port to a man whose views on this subject, as well as on others, are more moderate. The Georgia election is well worth the study of political lead ers everywhere. The craze for radical legislation as a cure for human ills is rapidly passing away, and it is not safe for as piring office seekers to work the game any longer. Poor Troubled Man! New York Worlil.
