11th. 1805, at tha poat offlee at Sail
bnrr. N. utder tli aet of Conre
Of Mi Srd. 18J7.
Salisbury, N, C, Jan. 22d,1903.
The SnD-eme Court of Pennsyl
vania has declared the 2-ceut rate
law of that state confiscatory and
unconstitutional. Maybe it was.
We see head lines entitled
Tassh.g of the Panic " We
thought it had passed, but were
'not informed as to its place of hiding.
Last week we stated that the
railroads had offered to pay $17,-
OOOtowards paying off the htiga-
uon, wnicri nas oeen going on in
the courts, and the expenses of
r A.
the extra j session of the legisla-
tare. Governor ttlenn says none
of this money is to-be used for the
purpose of paying any "part of the
expenses of the legislature and
that it-will not be sufficient to pay
all the cost of the litigation. We
are glad to note this correction.
One of the peculiar things about
this matter is the fact that some
of the most pronounced grafters
in the State objected to the rail
ways paying anything toward their
salaries. They could afford to do
this, knowing their salaries would
be paid any way out of the State
treasury.
Senator-Simmons not only had
the nerve to come out for State
Prohibition, but he had the ability
to see the on-coming wave, the
grace to submit, the sagacity to
make an effort to avoid tbe strife
and terrnoil of a popular election
and to admit its morality above
that of politics and party ism.
The telephone patrons of Salis
bury seem to be somewhat dissat
isfied with the rate3 of the Bell
Telephone Company here and talk
is. heard favorable to an indepen
dent company. The aldermen, it
is said, still have under consid
eration u franchise for an inde
pendent company. This company
should, in the interest of the
people, be given a franchise. The
Bell Company is a powerful cor
poration, greedy and grasping and
arbitrarily fixes rates from which
our citizens have no recourse.
This is a great injustice ' and
Bhould not be.
Salisbury Merchants Association.
The Retail Merchants Associa
tion of Salisbury held a regular
session Thursday night and elect
ed the following -officers: T. B.
Brown, president; W. T. Rainey,
vice-president; F. R, Brown, sec
retary and,W. M. Cook, treasurer.
The telephone rates in Salisbury
were discussed, also the matter of
feakiug trains1 Nos. 2J and 22 off
the western division of the South
ern. A committee was appointed
to co-operate with other associa
tions with purpose of having same
restored. A resolution claiming
the reduced passenger rates to be
(-injuring busiuees and asking the
repeal ot the present rate law ana
the adoptiou of that agreed upon
by Governor Glenn and the South
ern Railway officials, be substi
tuted therefore, was passed unan
imously by thoso present at the
meeting.
y DEATHS. : ,
Sheets, John, ; died Saturday
morning at his home on Chestnut
Hill. Mr. Sheets was a respected
citizen, a Confederate veteran,

neral took placa at Third Creek

Va., Monday, and his remains

Doan's Ointment has soothed
hundreds.
Here's what one Salisbury citi
zen save:
Mrs. Laura J. Litton, ot 6zv
Fisher St., Salisbury, N. C, "For
nine years I had a ttroublegome
irritation of the skin on my right
hand and although I was treated
by a physician and used many dit
ferent salves and ointments, I was
unable to free myself from the
annoyance. It itcnaa constantly
and was often so bad that I was
k?p'. awake at night on account of
it. I finally obtained Doan's
Ointment and one application
served to relieve the te rible
itching. A continued us i entirely
banished the irritation and I can
praise "Doan's Ointment in the
highest terms."
