APRIL 1906. K: A. LONDON, Editor. Charlotte will celebrate in rand style next month the an niversary' of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence. The celebration will not, however, be h the 20th of May, because that iite fallst oii Sunday this year, bitUfill be on the following: three days! Tlii celebration will not only be for three days, a longer time than usual, but it will be on a grander scale than usual. Presi dent Roosevelt has consented that f lie celebrated Marine Band at Washington may attend the cele bration and enliven the occasion with its soul stirring- music. The President has also consented that a crack troop of cavalry, a com pany 6i marines and a battalion of in fantry may attend. The attend ance of this band and these troops attract thousands of persons fb this celebration. This fact, that the Charlotte authorities were so anxious to se cure the attendance of these troops asT a ''drawing- card" for their cele bration, forcibly illustrates the reconciliation between the North iud the South, and how complete ly have been obliterated in the South all sectional passions en gendered by our unhappy war. Just forty-one years ago this month the South was overrun by Federal troops and their presence was by no means welcome, and wow we are asking to have them A t it. I I ueui as a great attraction to one of the grandest celebrations ever held in this State! The opponents of Prohibition might &s well undef stand that it hatf cdme to stay" in North Car olina. No only that, but they roust also know that there will be iio backward step taken. On the contrary, Prohibition is steadily gaining and making most gratify ing progress. The latest proof of this fact is the result of the election held on last Monday in the town of Wil soh. , Out of a vote of about 800 the saloons or barrooms were de feated bv 142 majority. Three years ago a similar election was held there, and the saloons were then defeated by only 21 majority. This shows that, after three years' experience, the good people of Wilson are more opposed than ever to saloons. Our neighbor town, Graham, will hold an election the 14th of April on the question of voting out Prohibition and establishing a dispensary. Beforms do not go backward, and, while a dispensary is far preferable to saloons, Pro hibition is preferable to a dispen sary. We are pleased to note that able Judge B. F. Long, in a verv and conclusive opinion, has sus tained the validity of the lease, made last year, of the Atlantic "A North f!fnlinn Tfuilroorl Pmo., g vto the Howland Improvement Company. Although the plain tiffs have taken an appeal to the Supreme Court, yet we have no doubt Judge Long's decision will fee affirmed. It would be very unjust and un fair to the lessee and also unfor tunate for the eastern part of the State, if the lease is set aside. The ietfaee has already expended a large amount of money in improv ing the road and developing the Country traversed by it, and is preparing to pend much more in developing the country tributary to the road. On last Monday began the greatest strike of coal miners that Las ever occurred in the United States. No agreement, after many conferences, could be reached be tween the miners and their em ployers. The contest is on the wages of the miners. It is said that oter half a million men are in the strike, but that number is expected to decrease in a few days, ii8 agreements are confidently pre dicted bf 'tween miners and their employers. Rev. E. D. Cameron, of Rock ingham, has been appointed by 1 he f'Secutive committee of the Ami-Saloon League as State Lec (urr td aid the local leagues.

THURSDAY, Washington Letter. r From our Keeuifii Oorrnai'omlnlit . j Washington. D.C.,Mar.29-1906. Washington fog and dust still involve the rate bill. The meas ure has reached the point where the whole question isv involved in the right of judicial review and in this provision if anywhere will be concealed the joker that is to make the measure acceptable to. the railroads. For the benefit of the uninitiated, it may be said that the prospect now is for an agreement to an amended bill that will provide for a more or loss broad court review. The object of the friends of the measure will be to frame this re view provision so it will not in terfere with the obvious intentof the law and make the delays pos sible under the bill more than off set the benefits that the measure might confer. The debate seems certain to run some weeks longer. The object of the floor manager, Mr. Tillman will be to get the bill through with as plain an amend ment as possible That the bi'l will be amended seems a foregone conclusion. The President has the shoe factory, was accidentally not opened his mouth on the sub- downed yesterday evening at 5 ject of any of the proposed o'clock. The mother was busy amendments to the bill and ic is preparing the evening meal and not thought that the White House the little fellow was playing on will be heard from till the raeas- the porch. When she called him ure as it passes is sent to the an(j g.Qt uo response she commen President to sign. Then if at rPfJ a Seirch. Goinn- to the Rnrinf all the President will express his opinion, aud whether it be favor able or the reverse, there will be little room to speculate. The comment on the measure is sure to be both entertaining and en lightening.

For this amount, the ex perts calculate, the Department can built a battle ship of over 19, 000 tons displacement that will carry an armament heavier than the English leviathen and that without any question will be the most formidable fighting machine afloat. The appropriation for the hull alone is $6,000,000 which is $i,uuu,uuu more man nas ever been aDororriate for a battle shin 1 in the American navy.

In view of the good target work that the submarines recent ly accomplished in their practice cruises.it is quite possible that the whole of this amount may beused. Submarine work has not yet been removed from the domain of the extra hazardous duty, but there are an abundance of young officers who yearrr for appointment on this dangerous duty and it is likely that a number of them will b3 given a chance to gratify their desire for dangerous service even in peace time. While the work of defensive naval construction is going on, there is an appropriation made also for a new dry dock that will equal the Dewey in size and will be retained in American waters. The proposed headquarters of this dock will be Solomon's Island in the Chesapeake, but though this spot affords unusual facil ities in the way of deep water and a good channel, the dock, once it is completed,1 will be avail- able for use anywhere on the At-! ate education, but to look into the lantic Coast where there is water beautiful mystery of truth and to deep enough to submerge it and serve his fellow man.
