And there ii still a lenee' in whioh thai tVtrue. It is still intolerable foir the government to interfere with oar individual activities ex oepl'wnen it is necessary to inter felewith them in order to free them. Bat I feel confident that if Jefferson were liv:ng in onr day he woo Id tee what we see : that the indtvidnftl is caqght in a great confuted nexus of all sorts of com plicated circamitancas, and that to? let hm" alone is to leave him helpless as against the obstacles wiib; whioh he baa to contend; and that, therefoie, law in our day must oome to the assistance of the individual. It must come to his assistsnoe to see that he gets fair play; that is all, but that is much. Without the watch fill interference, the resolute in terfsreno , of the government, there can be no fair play between individuals and such powerful iustitntisoa as the trusts Free dom today is something more than being let alone. The programme of a - government must in these days be positive, not negative ' merely.

That indication can be found only in the fertility of the American mind and the .productivity of Amerioan industry everywhere throughout the United States. If America were not rioh and fertil", there would be no money in Wall street. If Americans were not vital and able to care for them aelves, the great money exchanges would break down. The welfare, the very existence of the Nation, rests at last upon the great mass of the people, its prosperity de pends at last upon the spirit in which they go about their work in their several communities through oat the broad land. In propor tion as her towns and her country idea are happy and hopeful will America realise the high ambi tiens which have marked her in tie eyes of all the world. The welfare, the happiness, the energy and the spirit of the men and women who do the daily work in oar mines and factories, on our railroads, in our onions , and ports of trade, on our farms and on the aea, is the underlying necessity of all prosperity.

Washington, June 27 Alston D Watta, collector of internal reve nue for the western district of North Carolina, this is the new title of the popular North Caro linian who represents Iredell County in the State Senate and who lias been acting during this session of Congress as clerk of the Senate Finsnoe Committee, of whhh Senator Simmons is chair man . He was nominated and confirmed today. The nomination of Watts was sent to the Senate this afternoon and, oontrary to the usual custom of the Senate, was confirmed a few minutes later. When the news was telegraphed him ' at the Fi nanoe Committee room. Mr. Watts was incredulous, as the nomination had not come in with the first batch of names reoeived this morning from the White Housed but came later. When asked what he had to say, Mr. Watts replied: "I have no hard feelings against anybody and am very grateful to my friends.' Sinoe the recommendation of Watts was made by Seator Over man and concurred in by Sentor Simmons a vigorous and relentless effort has been made to block his nomination . It was reported that E. J. Justice, who is considering entering the oootest for the United States Senate against Senator Overman, led this fight. Colonel Watts was charged with being a reactionary and with having de- feated progressive measures in the State Legislature. Another effort to. block him hinged :on 31 ie -having; . opposed pTresiSenVlrtro vention cajnpsign.JThd enemies 6f Mr.. Watt 1 intimated that the recommendation of the twoNor)l CaroilnlSnadrs wrdWigtiior' fd and that President Wilson would consult with a meml er of his Cabinet about the distribution I of patronage in the State. Frequently in these dispatches your correspondent has cited inci dents whioh showed that President Wilson would follow the advice of the two Senators, and strongly in timated that Colonel Watts would ultimately be named. Today the President finally reached the case and justified these predictions. Mr. Watts announoes that he will immediately resign from the State Legislature. In the event the Legislature is called in extra session, a new. election will have to be called to fill the vacanoy. Should there be no extra session this will not be necessary, aa he has already served through the- regular term. Caioas f jr the Editor. The editor is indebted to his friend B. P. Elliott, one of Frank lin Township's hard-working and enterprising farmers and one of the best oitizms in the county, for some fine onions, whioh he brought him Saturday. They are of the Yellow Danvers and Red Globe variety, and are big ones and strong ones, something to make a fellow set up and take no tice. Brother Elliot is one of the folk who remembers his friends and he will be long remembered by scores of people who have the pleasure of knowing him.

Sunday night, following Shemwell's demand for a ticket to Asheville on Southern train No. 85. There were two warrants against Shemwell this morning, one charging him with carrying a oon- oealed weapon and the other oharging him with an affray with Campbell. Campbell was the only witness in the deadly weapon case, he declaring that he saw the pistol when Shemwell came under the railing and into the inner office . Judge Oritoher thought that there was some doubt about it and pro nounoed Shemwell not guiltly. In the affray ease .Shemwell was found j guilty and fined $15 and costs, while Campbell was found not guilty. , Dlcgem Flois i WiaiQ. A wealthy man died in Brus sels, leaving nearly afl of his fortune to a young woman who was entirely unacquainted with him. He was a very eooentrio man and set out, like Diogenes, in search of an honest man. His 'tab" was an omnibus, and his lantern a small coin. In the om nibus he took his seat near the conductor, and always showed himself very obliging, passing up the money of passengers and re turning the change, but to the iaUerhe-aiwayt ixeged:t6 j&d a franc t r abaW -Then he wouja. waipa tnof ;. w wqonir jf follyjcnotice the, exra in and ariably abp i : iato 'tbsir pockets. No one thought of the poor oonduotor, whose meager salary of three franos a day could ill spare suoh a loss. But at last a young woman past ed hers bask with : - ' ''Conduotor, you have given me half a frano too much." "Diogenes," delighted, follow ed her home, made inquiries, and as the answers were satisfactory made his will in her favor, though he never gave her warning that her half-frano was going to bring her a million. Dnlels si Hi Rid Flic The flag that symbolizes no feeling of loyalty, no love ot coun try, no call for peace and order, but whioh is unfurled in token of antsgonism to our guiding princi ples, has no place on our free soil, as Secretary Daniels ringingly de clares. America is still the refuge of the oppressed, but the grant of asylum does not give immunity to hostile demonstrations by an or ganised conspiracy bent On over throwing the government and the flag under whose protecting folds they were privileged to foregather. If we find that we have taken a a reptile into our bosom, a sense of danger should prompt us to oast it out. The Washington Post.

ChlDi Grcre Awakened Uaseisooablf and Catches Nigbt Prowler. Sunday night between 1 and 2 o'clock Harrison H. Peacock was awakened by a noise at one of his windows,. On investigation he found that some one had pried off the window strips and was remov ing the sash when, he was soared away. The neighbors were awak ened and a search begun. It was found that the marauder had gone toward Salisbury, but later was seen going south on Main street. When told to halt he refused to do so and was fired at with a shot gun by 8. G. Setzer. The tele phone office being near, the oper ator got busy and called up the people to be on the lookout on South Main street. John T. Deal, a mail carrier, armed with a shotgun, stepped out juit as the supposed thief was passing. He was told to 'Halt again but failed to do so until he could dodge behind a telephone pole. There he reached for bis hip pocket. About this time J. R. Brown, the jeweler, having heard Mr. Deal calling, rushed on the soene with a large Swiss rifle. The noise of the clicking of this was too muoh for the man and he sur rendered. Deputy Sheriff Kim ball then plaoed him under arrest. On searching him nothing was found in the way of a weapon but a razor. He was taken to Salis bury and jailed to await trial. Later Mr, Peaoock found that some one had entered his kitchen and dining room and appropriated everything eatable. The presump tion is that the same man, finding the door from the dining room to the house locked, went out and borrowed John Cooper's axe and tried to prize open the window. Burned matches on the floor cor responded with those found on hja. person. The man was a Negro, gave Greensboro as his home and his name as Henry Everette. Roy Kimball fired at what he supposed to be a thief during the period of exoitement, and several coats were taken from the poroh of Luther Phillips. Two of these coats were recovered and Everette 'was wearing one whnh Mr. Phil lips didn't care for. The preliminary trial of Ever ette took place in the Rowan County Court yesterday morning before Judge Ktuttz. There were three oounts against him, one for house breaking, one for larceny and cne for carrying a razor. Af ter hearing the evidence Judge Kluttz deoided there was no evi dence to indicate house breaking, suspended judgment as to carrying a weapon and sentenced him to six months on the roads for lar ceny. Among the China Grove wit nesses present at the trial were the following: Luther, Charles and William Phillips; the town constable, J. H. Black welder; 8 G. Setzer, George Jordan Flake Eddleman, Charles Deal, Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Peaoook, Q. M. Kim ball, and John C. Lyerly. The Best nedlclne In the World. "My little girl had dysentery very bad.

If other towns in North Carolina were doing as much building in J proportion to size and population as China Grove this year would go down in history as the era of oonstruotion. The walls- of the Lillian Knit ting Mill are now rising rapidly and the major portion of material, such as window sills, sash and door frames are ready for placing. Contractor Casper has a strong force and is now making all the progress possible as the weather permits. A force was put to work yester day digging the foundation for the new brick building to be ereoted for the Bank of China Grove. Muoh of the material, including lumber, brick, sand and other parts are now on hand, the work is to be pushed with vigor until complete. The front will be con structed with , a light, gray brick aud will probably present, when complete, the handsomest appear mce of auy business building in tjwn. Too Bible li loo Public Schools. Says the Presbyterian Standard, the official organ of the Presby terian ohuroh in North Carolina : - "A few years ago it looked as if the Bible would be banished from the pnblio sohools of every State, and that the children .of the land would grow up in ignorance of this, the greatest of books Re cently, however, the tide seems to have turned. Enoouraged by the success with whioh Australia haa dealt with the question, dif ferent States are now trying the same or a similar plan Penn sylvania has, just secured a law that provides that the teacher shall read or cause t be read without comment at least ten verses from the Scriptures at every session of schooL Though this i not wha, ;. wjl, wojakl 4ike yes it is a great, advance over some States, and it should result in good." The committee on constitution al amendments in session now at Morehead City has gone on record as favoring that amendment .giv ing the publio schools the right co read the Bible. This, we are sure, will ndeet with the com mendation and support of all good men and women in North Carolina. The Bible is the book of all books and woe unto this country when it shall be relegated to the abelf . Gastonia Gazette. It is strange that in this age of enlightenment an yone can be found who would object to the mere reading of the Bible in a sohool. Yet suoh exist and the greatest enemy the Bible and the sohools have comes from' the so called only true "church." There are two ways to bring about the destruction of the publio sohool which this "ohuroh" is attempt ing: kill it completely, or get charge of it and oontrol it. "Ignoranoe is the mother of wor ship," mental and physical slav ery and therefore certain sleek, well-fed bachelor priests and their followers want no general educa tion.
