C., June 7th, 1905 I As tp Jlussias universal disarm ament alid peace proposition she seems, with the aid of Japan, to ber making considerable progress. There is nothing like getting ca pable assistance We are indebted to our friend, Carl Hammer, now of Dayton, O.? for a copy of the Dayton Evening Herald on which he is now doing some telling work. The Herald is a seven-column, 22-page up-to-now sheet. By. flaming a half dozen, or a dozen; of the State's leading pa pers, and noting the newspaper agitation now going on at Greens boro, Sit will be evident to the mo3t casual observer that the day of the (policy organ has not passed. People still have convictions and theories peculiarly their own and are mPre devoted to their pet ideas now than probably has ever been known before. It is an ex ceedingly poor grafter now-a-days who cannot get a following. Our contention is it is a great pity for such to be the case. SenatorSimmons andGov.Glenn turned on their hot air exausts before the State Board of Agricul ture Monday morning, the key note of which was $3 per head for each immigrant procured, said $3 to be paid by -the farmer op whose soil he alights. We have been very uneasy through fear these meii would have so little respect forjthe wishes of the great major ity of our people as to force some such undesirable action upon the people of the State during a period in which they have no legislature to protect them from busy body officials. We consider it a great pity the Democratic party cannot find men to fill the high posi tions in the State, without a lot of personal ideas and schemes to work up instead of attending to - wguiuiawj pciugauivoB ui uixcii. otBces. We feel it safe in esti- making a loss of k 10,000 votes to tne democratic party; by benator Simmons pernicious efforts within the last few years, and can see another similar loss coming if this clique rule is not put out of commisson. But, to return to the immigration evil, if it has narrow ed down the proposition above mentioned there will certainly be a dearth of Immigrants in North Carolina. " i CURRENT COMMENT A white man has no place in a negro college. Yesterday's Wash ington Post say 8 that- "because Rev.

On Monday, May 29th, Mrv and Mrs. Isaac Shaver celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of their mar riage. The day dawned bright and beautiful,' illumiuiated by. the golden rays of the sun. About 8 'o'clock, children, grand-children and friends commenced coming in, bringing with them' eatables and presents of all kinds. By 12 o'clock quite a nice little crowd had gathered and dinner was spread out in the shade on a large table prepared for the occasion. When all wss ready Mr. Spry, the photographer, took a snap shot of the table which was so beauti- fuUy decorated with everything that heart could wish, and trimm ed with flowers. Rev J. C.

Water Drinkers. Some time ago there' was such a thing organized as the Salisbury-Spencer baseball team and owing to its record we, have been at a loss to know just why it was so named. Some light was thrown on the subject Thursday, however, when this 4,team" defeated the Charlotte "teW" The score was 11 to 9. Whether this: was the result of real ball playing or (wut3Luei tuw Yvat-er jwrinKers went to sleep during the game is not stated, but as this was followed by nve more victories we will give the boys crecit for having played ball. 1 tillllBS bu 10 ItalSIgn Thomas and Chalmers White, the murderers of Russell Sherrill at 'his home in Mt.

Swelling of Japan's Navy. ; A Washington dispatch states that when Japan and Russia make peace, whether in the near future or months from now. a new phase of international law will arise concerning tne score or more Russian warships which are in terned in neutral ports, princi pally along the Chinese coast. It is said that never .before has a case of iuternedjvessels arisen,and it is the general opinion in Wash ington that Japan will make a demand for all the Russian vessels which Togo has forced to find refuge m neutral harbors. The value Pf these vessols will arise nmnnd Shflncrhfti. deatrovers in 0 , j half a dozen Chinese ports and cruisers at Chefoo, Shanghai and Saigon, The cruiser Lena is in terned at San Francisco. Our government will no doubt take pleasure in presenting the Lena to Janan. If any objection is made we might invite Russia to tliBm ta tfitfl a nnt.inn that, thfiv want the Philipines. . Perhaps that is one explanation of Mr. Roosevelt's anxiety for a big navy, Charlotte Chronicle. An Airship Prediction. A Kansas City mau, now 80 years old, was dicussing railroads with a friend the other night. "I remember," he said, "when railroads used planks .with strips of iron nailed on them for the rails. The first road of that kind I ever saw was back in Ohio about sixty-five years ago. The wood rails used to warp alter tne cars had run over them awhile, and for that reason people predicted freely that the railroad would never amount to much. I remem ber a certain optimist, however, who predicted that the railroad would be a grand success eventu ally. People laughed at him, but he stuck to his belief . 'Friends, I remember hearing him say once, 'some day they'll find a rail that won't warp, and then railroads will make as much ad ten miles an hour easily.' My! how .they roared. Now, I want to make a prediction that will be laughed j at. l say tnat in twenty years airships will be flying all over the civilized world carrying passen gers aud freight. Laugh at that prediction if vou will. I proba bly won't live to see those air ships, but the prediction will come true, Mark my words," Kansas City Tim9s. A Handsome Watch to be Given Away.

The attack is directed particular ly to that poetic prayer, the - first that is learned audi which has been lisped at mothers' knees by millions of infant lips: v ''Now I lay me down to sleep ; ! I pray the Lord my soul t o keep ; If I should die before I wake I pray the Lord my eoul to take." The specific objection urged against this prayer is that the presentation of death in the third line is terrifying to children! and to this objection The Memphis News-Scimitar offers the follow ing sufficient answer: "The majority of children do not fear death. It is to them a tatnom tne mystery, dud it arouses no teeJiug oz terror, rneyao not yearn for it, neither do they repel it; they simply ignore it. The prayer is perhaps atiquated. So is religion, for that matter. So is life, so is everything of this world." It is too be doubted if there was ever a child in all the world in whom fright was inspired by" this prayer or any part of it. Discus sion of this subject is time wast ed, for godly mothers, who re member their own childhood and recall how regularly they knelt, when their gowns were on and they were prepared for b&d, and how reverently they repeated xiVv x xclj uict will uucki. i u av 'i the lips of their children, and these will in time teach it to theirs,- and thus it will continue to be handed down from genera tion to generation as long as time endures and the language is spoken. The tenderest memories are associated with it and the thought of it calls up the days of unsullied innocence , unquestion ing confidence, unshaken faith. Who would forget it? The Chica go women but waste their time. Charlotte Observer. Old Soldiers at Organ Church. There was a splendid gathering of old soldiers at Organ church last Thursday. A large crowd was present and a good time was had by all. The 'speaker of the day was Whitehead Kluttz, a treat highly appreciated. Jas. H.
