In the last issue of The Ran
dleman Times the editor takes
occasion to fire one shot from a
small bean shooter at us and one
at our Randleman correspondent.
As to the article referring to us
we pass that by as unworthy of
notice, but we feel called upon
to defend our correspondent
against such an uncalled-for and
senseless array of vile epithets
as was hurled against him. We
are not personally acquainted
with our worthy correspondent,
but will yer.ture the assertion
that he is a man of good charac
ter and good standing in his own
town, and a man who has the
courage to denounce social de
generacy wherever found. Our
correspondent said, "Shame on
the hotel proprietors of the coun
try," not of Randleman. There
is quite a large territory outside
of Randleman where hotels may
be found, and we do not doubt
that our correspondent has seen
the evil spoken of, and had the
courage to condemn it. Our cor
respondent did specify one evil
in Randleman, namely selling
beerine, and according to The
Times, "The Town Commission
ers have instituted an ordinance
against the sale within corporate
limits, of the trashy decoction
known as 'Beerine,' the ordi
nance goes into effect at noon on
Saturday. We decidedly approve
of the act not, indeed, because
the stuff is alcoholic, but simply
because it ISN'T." There you
are. Why didn't our co-temporary
stand up and denounce the
evil of selling beerine because it
didn't contain the proper amount
of alcohol before the council voted
it out, and before our correspon
dent denounced selling it in any
form? Why didn't The Times
stand up and expose the liquor
wagons that are peddling the
vile stuff over the town, debauch'
ing the young, and demoralizing
society generally? Our corres
pondent denounced it and y et
The Times points him out as 'a
fit subject for the fool-killer.
The Times has arrested our cor
respondent on suspicion, tried
him before an incompetent jury
(of one) and condemned him as
charged. There may be work
for the fool-killer in Randleman,
but he will not begin on our cor
respondent, THE FARMER AND PROGRESS.
The public schools of Asheboro
opened last Thursday under more
favorable auspicies than ever
before in its history. The in
structional force is one of un
usual ability and experience in
teaching. The first two days
were consumed in enrollment
and organization, arranging of
lessons and other preliminaries,
The enrollment is a record break
er, as it is 25 per cent, larger
than for the first week of last
year.
The different grades are all
full of eager learners whose ed
ucational guidance is in most
competent hands. Directing
them all is an able and exper
ienced superintendent, who has
had experience in the Asheville
graded schools and in South Car
olina schools, and therefore will
bring new life and new thought
into our school. Each of the
teachers under Prof. Staley is
fitted for her particular work,
and all working together in har
mony will insure success.
Some of the children are at a
great disadvantage this week,
owing to the fact that they have
not been able to procure books.
It is to be hoped that the par
ents will enter into a hearty co
operation with the teachers in
making this year the greatest
success in the history of the
school.
There was a lot of hard-headed
sense in the remarks ot an
Indiana delegate when the sub
ject of a permanent Tariff com
mission was under discussion at
the Chicago conference. Said he
My name's Jim Bingham. I'm
from Indiana, and I want to say
that down in my State we are not
afraid of our Congressmen,
futhermore, we don't believe that
they will hand over any of their
dower to a lot of outsiders
jn either are we at raid ot our
Senators. If you men from other
States think your Senators are
grafters, the thing for you to do
is to get rid of them. Get them
out of Congress. That's the body
that will have to deal with Tariff
questions.
Not untill the Tariff is taken
out of politics will there ever be a
permanent Tariff commission in
this country. And the tariff will
not be taken out of politics so
long as the Free-Traders and
scheming politicians like Cum
mins and Gross keep on stirring
up things by clamoring for tariff
reduction, Tariff revision and
Tariff-emasculation, reciprocity.
The men who are constantly
keeping up an uproar for taking
the Tariff out of politics are the
very men who are doing the most
to continue the Tariff in politics.
Jim Bingham is right. Congress
is the body that will deal with
Tariff question, for the very good
reasdi that Tariff questions are
and must always be political
questions. Economist.
CLIPPINGS FROM OUR EXCHANGES.
An inmate of the Raleigh In
sane Asylum was beaten to death
the other day and none of
the machine democratic papers
have said anything about it. It
is alright for the Democratic
officers to beat crazy people to
death and many of the democrat
ic papers refuse to mention the
matter. ' 'There is retribution in
history" and the democratic party
in North Carolina will find it out
some day. North State.
Mr. E. G. Cheek of this place
says he has the longest vine he
has ever seen or herd of. It is
a Moon Flower vine and is 300
feet in length. Two seeds of this
flower were planted the day
before last Easter and in a very
short time it was necessary to put
ud lattice work for the vines to
run on. Later a wire was ex
tended from the lattice work to
a tree about 25 feet away, and
now the vines have reached the
top of the tree and branching out
on the limbs, and still they grow.
Who has a longer vine? Siler
City Grit.
The modern farmer stands for
all that progress means. No
farmer who tries to be up with
the times can keep from making
money at his business, for the
profession is of such a nature
that if worked properly will
bring in as great returns for the
outlay as any profession known
now. There is no good reason
why farmers now days are not
up to date. Farm journals and
papers, books, pamphlets and
everything that is necessary for
the enlightenment of the men of
this profession is in abundance
and easy of access. The man
who tells you he has not time to
read up on his profession is a
failure and does not deserve the
sympathy of his fellows. The
fact that a man has a profession
is enough to insure him plenty
of time to investigate along the
lines of his profession. Suppose
a farmer only learns a few vital
facts a year, look what he is do
ing. When you see a man with
a farm doing the things his fore
fathers did and in the same way
you mark in down that he is a
failure. Every former principle
of the old methods have been
done away with and we are un
der a new regime of the agricul
ture and hence in order to reach
the highest efficiency we must
keep in touch with the front
ranks of the profession. The
man who quits his farm to go on
public works is a failure already,
for if he has a farm there is no
reason for his being away from
his farm. Only in extreme cases
is it necessary for a farmer to
leave his home to get money to
run the same with. The burden
of the work now is to get men
who have farms to work them
on the modern basis and use the
latest methods for cultivating
the ground. Ex.
The editor of The American
Boy ask for an article on the sub
ject "Why young Americans to
day should interest themselves
in politics." The reasons are so
numerous that it would be
difficult to furnish a complete
answer.
The young Americans of today
will be the acting, govern
ing force of tomorrow, and only
by interesting themselves in
politics not only before ma
tunty, but all their lives can
American citizens hope to do their
full duty to their country; Free
government is a responsibility as
well as a privilege a grave re
sponsibilityfor when one has
the privilege of participating in
the government he must share in
the responsibility for bad govern
ment as well as in the credit for
good government.
Whether one ever becomes a
candidate for office may depend
upon circumstances, but every
one regardless of his occupa
tion shonld study the science of
government, acquaint himself
with public questions and give to
his country his conscience and
his best judgment on every
question that arises.
In the study of public questions
the most important thing is to get
hold of the controlling principle
Only when one understands the
principles, which govern a sub
ject does he understand the sub
ject, and the fundamental prin
ciples applicable to politics are
really everyday principles with
which all are familiar.
"Thou shalt not bear false wit
ness," "Thoushalt not steal"
and "Thou shalt not kill"-these
will be found to cover most of
the question, and of the three the
second, ' 'Thou shalt not steal, ' '
is probably the broadest in its
applications, for every pe
cuniary injustice done by one man
to another whether directly or
indirectly, whether in violation of
law or in the absence of law par
takes of that character of larceny.
One is never too young to begin
to interest himself in the prin
ciples of government, and there
is no age however advanced at
which one can offord to be in
different. W. J. Bryan in Amer
ican Boy.

High Point, Sept. 11. j
The "Burning Bush" street
preachers have been arrested
here again, and, refusing to give
bond, 'Squire W. E. Johns, be
fore whom the case was tried
committed two of them to jail,
Mr. Ragsdale and wife.
Citizens of the town, who
were unmercifully annoyed the
entire summer by their screaming
beating of pans and other up
roarious noise, sued out a writ
against them. These are the
same people who cut such a wide
swath in court here some time
ago, and who were finally releas
ed. They refused positivelly and
stubornly to desist from their un
bearable noise and also to give
bond, showing little respect for
court. Their arrest is not a
religious persecution by any
means, the people of High Point
are very Patient in such cases,
but patience has ceased to be a
virtue. The result is sanctioned
by all good citizens.
Last Thursday night lightning
struck the home of Robert Levy,
who lives near Mt. Tabor church,
this county. The house was al
most entirely demolished and a
number of chickens under the
building were killed. Mr Levy
and family, consisting of his wife
and three children, were in bed
at the time and escaped injury.
Our informant says escape is
considered miraculous as the
rooms they were occupying were
wrecked and the furniture badly
torn up by the lightning. Dav
idson Dispatch.
An accident which was a little
dangerous occurred at the cross
ing near the depot last Thursday
morning. Mr Henry Smither
man, driving a team, attempted
to cross the railroad track just
after the engine with a box car
had passed, but the engineer not
seeing him reversed his engine
and began running backwards.
Before he could be signaled the
car had pushed the team and
wagon several feet, breaking the
wagon but only slightly bruising
the mules. The wagon was bro
ken up considerably but Henry
came out without a scratch.

Plenty of Closet.
The aveage house contains too
few closets, especially those built
a score of years ago. The modern
house, if comfort and convenience
are the two essentials considered
in its construction will contain
many, says the Country Gentle
man. Each bed chamber ought to
have its closets, while kitchen
and dining room will have closets
galore. A hall closet is one of the
handiest places imaginable; many
articles which do not properly
belong on the hall table or rack
may be relegated to its seclusion.
A closet in the parlor is a luxury.
I know of only two houses having
closets in parlors. The architect
planned one in the home of a
friend very cunningly. It was
unnoticed among panelings,
ect. Besides the closets enum
erated, a general closet will
be found very convenient, es.
pecially if the family be large.
This closet should be fitted with
shelves, hooks, ect. ,upon which
boxes, packages, ect' ,of ar
ticles belonging to different mem
bers of the family can be stored,
those that do not belong or cannot
be placed in the private closet.
Boxes and parcels should be label
ed with owner.s name and list
of contents.
The city council of Houston,
Texas, has adopted the following
ordinance:
"That hereafter any male per
son in the city of Houston who
shall stare at, or make what is
commonly called 'googoo' eyes at
or in any other manner look at
or make remarks to or concern
ing, or cough or whistle at or do
any other act to attract the atten
tion of any women or female per
son upon or traveling the streets
of Houston, with the intent
or in a manner calculated to at
tempt to flirt with any such wo
man or female person, shall be
deemed guilty of a misdemeanor
and UDon conviction thereof m
the corporation court of the city
of Houston shall be fined in any
sum not to exceed $100. '
Now will the male persons of
Houston be good? Ex.

"South Carolina has done one
more important service to the
country,'', says The Richmond
News-Leader, explaining that
"she has tested the dispensary
system of dealing with the liquor
question on herself and has
demonstrated its vileness and
weakness so thoroughly that it is
not likely that any other State
will undertake it. North Caro
lina has not undertaken to have
a Sate dispensary, a Great Moral
Instiution for the uplifting of the
people of the wholeState, but we
have been experimenting with
the dispensary in smaller way on
our own hook. Fortuntely there
is an escape a country does not
have to have a dispensary if it
does not want it. As the educa
tional stump speakers sometimes
say in reference to illiteracy
statistics, Thank God for South
Carolina. Charlotte Observer.

The time to revise the Tariff is
when revision is really needed to
promote the business, industrial
and farming interests of the coun
try. That condition does sot exist
now. And revision may safely
come when Protection is so
universally recognized as the
settled policy of the United States
that the Democrats, or Free
Traders, will not make it a party
issue. Ex.
J. Pierpoint Morgan, who has
already received a number of dec
orations, is about to be created a
commander of the Legion of
Honor by the French Govern
ment. This is in acknowledgment
of his recent presentation to
Pans of a fine bronze statue of
Benjamin Franklin, who not only
spent eight years in Paris as the
envoy of the United States, but
likewise erected on the house
which he occupied the first light
ning conductor ever seen in
France.
