2 MARRIAGE AND SILVER STEWART THINKS FREE COIN ■ AGE WILL HELP THE MAT RIMONIAL M AMKET. PROF. WITHERS GETS A PLACE. Appointed Agent for the District Com posed of North and South Carolina Under the New System of Gathering Crop Statistics—His Salary W ill Be s9oo—The Democrats in Alabama Will Be Democrats Still, However the Currency Question is Undecided. Special to the News and Observer. Washington, June 27. Senator Stewart has become positively silly in his free-coinage talk,says the cor respondent of the N. Y. Times. He comes out to day with the proposition that what he calls the “demonetization of silver” has had an alarming effect upon the matrimonial habit of the coun try. Gold monometallism, he says, is a great impediment to the assumption of the married state by those who clearly shoul i be in it. “The reason for this,” said Mr. Stew art, “is obvious. From the landing at Jamestown until fifteen years ago, the only questions asked of a young man proposing marriage were, ‘ls he honest, industrious, intelligent, and of good character?’ If these were affirmatively answered, the consent of the parents was ordinarily given. The question now is. ‘Has the young man a fixed income?’ The possibility of his making a living for himself and family by his industry is regarded as too remote for considera tion.” “Why is this F asked the person to whom Mr. Stewart wa3 delivering him self. “Are not young men succeeding to-day in business enterprises as well as in the past ? ’ “Not at all; there is not one succeed ing to day where 100 succeeded half a century ago. You a3k the cause ? It is due to filling prices. If a man is in business, he is unable to dispose of the fruits ot his labor to an advantage. On the contrary, the more he struggles and engages in business, the more continual ly do prices fall, thousands of men are renting farms to day who were owners some years ago, and who were forced to abandon the position of owners because of their inability to pay taxes.” “From 1810 to 1850 the Spanish- American wars had reduced the output of precious metals to $40,000,000 an nually. The United States was pecu liarly situated. The Mississippi Valley offered opportunities for making homes which did not exist elsewhere. Immigra tion from Europe built up this country, while the public lands were being dis tributed, so that the United States did not feel the partial money famine in the first half of the century as other coun tries did. As the public lands became scarcer, gold from California and Aus tralia kept up prices and enabled young men to buy lands or establish business enterprises by their industry. Now the lands are gone, and contraction has come and falling prices have cut off the op portunity of the masses. The few who deal in money are the only ones who are now able to marry and support wives.” “ What becomes of those who cannot afford to marry ?” “They live,” replied the Senator, grimly, “on their parents or go into ser vitude. Women are seeking employ ment in stores, as typewriters, and as upper servants. They must do some thing; they can’t afford to marry.” “What will be the effect of this upon o*r population?” “The effect will be to reduce popula tion. The census of 1890 showed a fall ing off in the increase of our population, and the census of 1900 will accentuate this decrease. The number of marriages has decreased from 25 to 40 per cent, during the last five years. These figures may not be exactly correct, as I am speaking from memory, bat they are ap proximately so.” Mr. Stewart paused here, and looked very solemn and sorrowful. “Do you think,” he was asked, “that the establishment of free coinage would alter all this ?” “I do,” he replied. * * * How She Puninhed Her‘♦Hubby.** It isn’t often that a neglected wife punishes a truant husband a3 one did in this city last night. A jauntily dressed girl of the period and a dashing young fellow were taking a street car ride with apparent enjoyment when suddenly the young man’s wife got on the car. She took a seat just in the rear of her hus band and the girl he was riding with. About the time they were “spooniest,” the wife leant forward, dropped the baby in the husband’s arm 3 saying, “There, you lazy good-for nothing loafer, here’s your baby take it.” He took it, saying, “You jade, you begrudge me a little spin on the cars. Take your baby and leave the car. ” The passengers applauded the plucky wife, the jaunty girl turned pale, and left the car at the first crossing. A few more such plucky actious would be deserved punishment to married truants in this city. * * * New System of Crop Reporting. The assignment of State agents in the new system of gathering crop statistics has been completed, save two districts. The new plan practically does away with the State agencies, as the States are grouped into districts, which only one State agent will supervise. The present svstem of county reports will also be supplanted by one providing fora reporter in every township and the two systems will be used conjointly, each acting as a check on the other. The country will be divided into twenty-one districts. Four teen of these will comprise groups of States and seven single States. Some of the State agents have been retained as district agents, and others will be drop ped from the rolls. W. A. Withers, of North Carolina, is the agent for North and South Carolina. His salary is S9OO. The agents for two districts, one em bracing Arkansas, Indian Territory, and Oklahoma, and the other North and South Dakota and Montana, have not been selected. The arrangement eliminates all sala , ries below $720 a year and makes an average of SI,OOO. There were formerly 45 agents and the reduction to twenty one makes an aggregate saving of several thousand dollars. * * * Will be Democrats Still. Congressman Cobb, of Alabama, who is a free-silver advocate, said in an in terview a few days ago: “Should the Democratic National Convention see fit to declare against free coinage, I have no idea that there would be any danger of the Democrats of Alabama voting with the Populists. If they cannot influence the convention to adopt their ideas, they will act in unison with the party and wait until auother time to secure what they want. The people of Alabama are seriously thinking about the money question, and are willing to become bet ter informed on that subject.” * * * Dr. William T. Harris, commissioner of education, in his report for 1894, shows that the total uumber of pupils in all the schools was 15,530,268, an in crease over the previous year of over 450,000, in spite of hard times. ~~ * * * Rev. H. W. Jones, rector of the Ger mantown Episcopal church was married here yesterday to Miss Pattie Harvey. They go to Germanton in a few days. KILLED AND BURNED HIM. Mrs. Nobles Gave a Negro Man Ten Dollars to Kill Her Husband. Atlanta, Ga., June 27.—A special from Cochran, Ga., says that Mrs. Wil-- liam Nobles paid a negro $lO to kill her husband. The body was burned by the woman. The negro, Gus Jones, Mrs. Nobles and her two daughters all have been arrested and the negro has con fessed. Nobles was an old farmer of Twiggs county. He and his wife often quarreled. When the body was found, Mrs. Nobles said: “Well, murder will out and I'd just as well tell the straight of it. They can’t do anything but hang or send her to the penitentiary and either is better than living with a man you have to quarrel and fuss with all the time.” Mrs. Nobles said that she forgot to re tract her offer for the death of her hus band, and was very sorry when she learned that Gus had killed him. She knew, however, that she was responsible for the crime. The negro Gus also is said to have made a confession without much hesi tancy. Eis story coincides with that of Mrs. Nobles, except he declares the mur der was committed behind the bara, and three licks caused the death. One of these was struck by Mrs. Nobles her self. Cure for Headache. As a remedy for all forms of Headache Electric Bitters has proved to be the very best. It effects a permanent cure and the most dreaded habitual sick headaches yield to its influence. We urge all who are afflicted to procure a bottle and give this remedy a fair trial. In cases of ha bitual constipation Electric Bitters cures by giving the needed tone to the bowels, and few cases long resist the use of this medieine. Try it once. Large bottles only fifty cents at Jno. Y. Macßae’s drug store. In the Morning Dull Headaches and Palrvs Hood’s Sarsaparilla Perfectly Cured i i f Mv. 7T.

The Lincoln Lithia Water Co.: I take pleasure in stating that I have used the Lincoln Lithia Water quite exten sively in my practice during the past five or six years, and I have come to regard it with great confidence. In the Uric Acid Diathesis; in, controlling the tendency to nephritic colic and breaking up the habit of recurrent attacks; in Dyspepsia; in Albuminuria (wheth er dwe to pregnancy or other causes), I have found great satisfaction in its use. Indeed, so highly do I appreciate its efficient helpfulness in the disturbances of the renal functions, that I regularly prescribe its systematic use, to the exclusion of ordinary drinking water, as a preventive of renal complications during the last three or four months of pregnancy, in the cases of all my patients who can afford it.
