Ye editor ofye Sun seems to be lieve in competition as the unfail ing panacea for all the economic and political ills that afflict our body politic the cure-all, as it were. Suppose we accept his so lution of the problems as being the proper and only remedy (even though it be no remedy at all), tie next thing in order, to "save the country," is to apply the remedy. The question is, how are we going to compel business men to compete if they do not want" to compete? Upon the answer to this question hangs the fate of the nation, and we hope, for the good of all, that the sage of the Sun will come to the rescue of his country like a true patriot and tell us in direct and unequivocal terms how this thing can be done. Statesmen of all calibres have attempted the task in vain that is, if we accept their efforts as sincere. The na tion will be on the tiptoe of ex pectation until the answer i? forthcoming. He can cast aside the question of waste under com petition, which trustification has eliminated to a considerable ex tent, and confine himself strictly to the one at issue: How can we dissolve the combines and compel . Hb present members to engage in war upon each other for trade? If our manufacturers and other par ties engaged in production will but pitch in and pilo up goods re gardless of the power of the peo ple to consumeit, in order to pre vent a panic from overproduction we will see to it that Congress ap propriates a billion or two annu ally to buy up and cremate the surplus in national crematories built for the purpose, so that the mills of our competitive gods shall not cease to grind out their goods for want of an incentive. The na tion should learn a lesson from pur cotton raisers, who have solved the problem of overproduction. The successful doctor must fnot only prescribe a remedy for the d is ease of his patient,but must hsal le to apply it. A bronze monument awaits the man who can solve this problem without disturbing . our sacred, moss-covered institutions. The Executive Committee of the N. C. Ev. Lutheran Church, in ses sion here last week, authorized Pastor Ritchie, of East Spencer, to immediately organize the thirty persons pledged to enter it in West Spencer into a mission church. A white man named Reid, jailed here last week, attempted suicide in his cell Friday night, but was prevented from doing so by Jailer Krider. He is a victim to the mor phine habit. Some of the negro excursionist? here from .outh Carolina last week before leaving tanked up on fighting whiskey, and before get ting to Charlotte two of them had sliced each other up so as to make their recovery doubtful. Dr. English, of Union Theologi cal Seminary, Richmond, Va., preached at the First Presbyterian church Sunday morning. Susan Lyerly. Mrs, Susan Ly erly died at her home on Chestnut Hill Monday at 12.80 o'clock of dropsy, after a long illness, in the 55th year of her age. She is sur vived by two daughters, one of whom is married. Andrew Murphy. Mr, Andrew Murphy died of dropsy at hie resi dence on Bank street last Wednes day evening at 7,30 o'clock, after a year of illness, the greater part What the country needs more now than anything else, we think, is more men and less parrots at the heads of the editorial depart ments of American newspapers. Roosevelt has again mounted his hobby, blown his tin whistle and drawn his tin sword to give battle to the trusts. Well, 'tis good summer reading, this light comedy. Let us laugh and grow fat. There are two things, beside those mentioned elsewhere, in Hickory's mak-up, that it would have been to Salisbury's interest had she done likewise ; in fact,it is not too late for the Water Com missioners to take up one of them yet. The first of which is the suitable covering of the - stand pipe, thereby preventing the ad mission and accumulation of dead birds and other ;filth therein. The other item is the neat sum of $2, 500 for a street-car franchise, which, we understand, has been Trolley Cars Arrive. Some of the cars for the Salif-bury-Spencer road arrived Mon day, and on Tuesday one car, of the summer style, was placed on the track at the Western railroad crossing. Narrow Escape from Drowning. In attempting to cross the Yaa kin river last Friday evening Wil liam Lester, of Davidson county, lost two horses and n irrowly es caped drowning.

From what we street cars are not running on properly-equipped lines in Hick ory within a period of twelve months.
