CANNOT MAIL LIQUOH. Very lew people have ever stopped to investigate the fact that there is a United States statute against the mailing of liquor. A commission was heretofore appointed by Con gress to revise the Criminal Code of the United States. This commission made a change in the statute provid ing for the mailing of liquor through the mails. This gave great encour agement to liquor men and would have afforded an opportunity to send liquor through the mails like medi cines are sent, to the very homes of the people in every prohibition ttrri tory in the United States. Under the leadership of Senator Clav, of Georgia, this feature of the new code was stricken out and the old law re-enacted, with a penalty clause added for violation of the law. ay up :as made it necessary ;i n manager, whose 1 -.;::ik-d in iolation of v.r ."vbscnlvrs lo pay in !e imubl?, and consid'erab itu 'v saved to us. :ic: eased aw ol newspaper ana witn bus n,:essity carefully to keep books and pre 'iie cent to the lUiinqnent subscribers as expense is entailed mat it will be sti make ends meet at the end of the vear. d not ku. -- what others will do. but so far a? this paper is concerned we have written, the department that we expect to live up to the letter of the law faithfully. It is said that the law was intended to eliminate "from the mails those publishers that 1:11 the mails with newspa pers to people who never subscribed and do not pay their subscription, and are known as mail order publications, supported and operated by the mercantile mail order houses in the large cities.

The only way to avoid this trouble is to insist earnestly on the cash in advance system for all sub scriptions. While we have practically the cash in advance system, there being less than a thousand subscribers on our books who owe for as much as three months. The time has now arrived when we must, without fa vor to anvone, insist upon the cash in advance plan. It is too expensive for us to employ an agent to see every sub scriber, and ye, therefore, make this appeal to all to make their remittances through the mails as early as pos- uur suorcnoers ana tne dudiic nave been kind to us. especially during the past few years, for which we are ever thankful and have tried to improve our paper and make it worthy of the confidence and of the intelligence and loyalty of the members of our large family of readers. In remitting subscriptions we prefer for them to be remitted upon one of the blanks whih will be printed in The Courier from week to week during the mouth of February.

The Courier, Asheboro, N. C. ma lar Agai uac hel ot the s trii't in which the school is taught, and committeemen bhould see that this is done. If teicheis have al ready finished tluir M'hools, it Js not too late to make reports to commit teemen, la thosi place where the schools h ive not closed, committee men should not sign vouchers until such reports are made. A great We hare gi?en from time to time considerable attention to the im provement of our town, not only in the industrial line, but in its appear ance. Industrial1? the town has improved wonderfully within the last few years and we hope to see it go forward with even more rapid strides. But we are just now inter sted in the improvement of the ap pearance of the town, not only in cleaning up the streets, sidewalks and back yards, but in the planting of flowers and shrubs and the setting out of shade trees and arranging them in the proper way. It has been difficult for us to get anybody to take charge of this matter. Our god women have organized clubs and are doing much toward raising money for the improvement of the school building and raising funds for a monument to the Confederate dead, but we would like to see them give their time and attention for the next few months to beautifying the town; to looking after the cemetery, the streets, the front and the back yards, and, in fact, to the entire town. The Anti-Saloon League of Mary land is making a desperate fight to get prohibition throughout the State. Crad'iDal Gibbons, the head of the Catholic church, opposes local op tion for Baltimore. The Baltimore San also opposes it, but advocates an increase in the license of saloons from $500 to $1,000. The Sun de elwres that Baltimore would lose "(000 a jwr if the saloons were no value, but. ther-'are two reasons, at least, for observing this rule. In the first place it gives more order and system lo the work, and again sjj ii puis uiei.ieisoi ine ecuuui lino the hands of committeemen. In the election of teachers for next year you will need to know just what was done this year. In this connection it is necessary to call at tention to call attention to registers. I suppose every teacher was supplied with a register for the year's work, but reports show that they were of little, if any, value. Now, it will be the dutv of teachers to turn the registers over to the committee, and I wmh to urge that an effort be made to make the rxiords as complete as possible. For this month I will be in the office on Mondays. I may be here other days in the week but you will be sure to find me on Mondays. If ic should not be convenient foi you to come to Asheboro to draw your salarv, mail me your reports and vouchers properly filled out, signed and receipted, and the treas urer will send cheek for the amount. If there should be any mistake the reports will be returned for correc tion. It is earnestly requested that these suggestions be observed. In doing this you will greatly oblige me and also help the educational interests. E. J. COLTBANE, CO. Supt. Montgomery Clipping!). The Montgoruiian. An old time fiddlers convention will be held at Mt Gilead Friday night, March 20 th. Miss Ix)la Allen delightfully en tertained the the Trogan Book Club at Troy last week.

HupU Hleki to Retire. Col. W. J. Hicks, superintendent of the Oxford Orphan Asylum, who is now more than 80 years old, will soon retire, and it is said that A. C. Davis, of Goldsboro, formerly prin cipal of the Davis Military School, or Leon Cash, of Winston-Salem, will succeed Col. Hicks. Reward for Wife Murderer. Gov.

C, says: "About three years ago I began suf fering from severe pains in tbe small of my back. I was also caus ed much annoyance by the kidney secretions which were irregular in action and of au unnatural color. Addod to this annoyance were dizzy spells and frequent headaches which caused me additional suffering. I finally procured a box of Doan's Kidney Pills at the Standard Drug Co., commenced their use and in a short time they gave me relief. Their continued use resulted in a cure, banishing the pains through my back and restoring my kidneys to their normal and regular action. I always recommend Doan's Kid ney Pills whenever an opportunity presents itself so that others suffer ing from similar troubles may know of a reliable remedy." For sale by all dealers.
