There will be many matters of importance before the present gener al assembly. Most of these natters are contained in the State platform adopted at Charlotte at the last State convention, about which there will be more said in thtse columns in the near future. All this tulk about the leic-latois goinjj down to Kit'figh and niK-cin and adjourning inonsi-use, i;ul tl:i-e who ft re talk ing it h.ive evide.itly net coiisidert-tl that we h iVf a St.-.'.i- ii'a:fi; tu .vliii ll The present g-u.-r;il a setubly will be one of t tie most important that has been held iu a long iime. The legislature will be called ou to con sider the question of guarantee of deposits in State bunks. This is a matter which was fully discussed in these columns in the late cam paign, and The Courier is committed to the proposition and sincerely hopes that a measure of that kind can be enacted. Of course there should be some restriction. A mini mum capital stock for a bank should be fixe 1 and the number of banks in towns and in ounties should be limited and restricted to a certain number. It has been suggested that th Statejplatform does not contain a reference to it. That is true, but the fact that thire is no reference to the matter in the State platform can be easily explained. The Con gressional conveut'o.i of the seventh district, which convened in Ashe- boro, contained a plank which de manded a protection of bank depos its. Many other Congressional con ventions and a majority of the County conventions throughout the State where resolutions were adopted declared for the protection of the deposits in all banks. A large ma jority of the delegates at the Char lotte onvention favored the proposi' tion although at that time he mat ter had not been clearly called to the attention of the public and the question had not been fully consid ered and discussed in the news. papers. When the Democratic Na tional platform declared for the guarantee of bank deposits the Democrats throughont the nation fell in line and not a murmur of op position was heard duriug the cam paign in this section, although prac tically every Democratic speaker in the campaign declared for the guar antee of bank deposits, and one cf the strongest arguments made by the Democrats in the recent cam. paign was the advocacy of the guar antee of bank deposits. The truth ii that the argument for bank de posits is absolutely unanswerable We have nrvpr beard an argument against it. n' - .s heard ridicule from National bankers of the type of Elwood Cox and others, but a real Bound argument we have never heard advanced by any one in oppo sition to the guarantee of kbank de posits. If any kind of insurance' is, a proper thing, then insurance of bank deposits, or guarantee of bank de posits, if you please, is the right thing. If it is right that the banks should be secured, "guaranteed," . when a private individual borrows money from the bank, then it is right for the bank to secure the depositor who intrusts his money with the bank. ' If it is right for the State or Gov ernment to require a set uruy or a guarantee when moaey is leaned to a bank, then it is right fr a bank to secure an Individual when the in dividual deposits money with the b.nk, because the depositing of the money with the bank is only loan ing it. THE PROHIBITION LAW. The prohibition fight is just be ginning. The friends of temper ance should work as hard to enferce the prohibition law now as they did to narry the election 'ast May. The sentiment that voted in faver of prohibition mnst continue and the friends of prohibition must work to increase public sentiiseut in favor of it, and all who worked for the law should now work as diligently to enforce the law. Capt S. A. Ashe in a recent article published in the News & Oiserver calls actection to what he calls a shade of thought touched by no one else. We quote from Capt Ashe: Mr. Taft now says that the Tariff schedules are t be carefully ievieed, and reformed in the light of reason, Excessive rates are t be redueed. Some other Republicans are not of his niiml; so that there are two fac tions ot the Kepalilieau party at wlds on this subject. .Mr. "Tuft ae.-iies that Soitturm IVm vruts shall trail! with Ii un to steatneu his faction ui.d ha v. tan if reduc tion. Tile question u penineut ii.nt ii is it hij-peiit' i thai liu-re is to this tu p trture f ruin the fanner poli cy of tns Republic iu partyl' Win is the tariff tu be reformed? Is it not because of toe pe.sistent hauiuieringof the Democratic party? Certaiuly Mr. Taft expects some be.ittit and advantage to accrue to the country by cairying out this re form. What ever benetit does come shall be attribu ed to the uu -emitting efforts of the Democratic party. We have forced this result. And now while Mr. Taft and other Re publicans admit the force of our contention that the tariff ought to be reformed, Democrats are asked tu deBert their party whose efforts nave led to the result. Quoting i he foregoing the Green boro Telegiam tells in an interest ing manner how the Democratic party has forced many reforms and cites the fact that Mr. Taft admits that th Democrats have been right all these years and that this fact is now fully indicated in the minds of a great majority, of the people. Iu the fanners institutes now be ing held iu Maryland there is a lecture by a lady ou a domestic science. These lectures deal with the sphere of the wives of farmers, he object being to lessen the burden and make life more attractive. There should be training along the line of preparation of food and in having houses well ventilated and comfortable. More attention shoald be given in making life more cheerful. There should be a remedy for the ill cooked and unwholesome food in so many houses. One more difficult thing is to procure services of good servants. This is difficult an i causes such worry and over work. Much good can be done in teaching housewives bow to system atize. Sees Mr. Roosevelt The special Washington corre spondence of the Charlotte Observer savs: "We demand that you appoint a good lawyer, one that the bar of the State will respect, said Senator Overman to President Roosevelt to day, when asked concerning the Eastern Carolina judgeship. Mr. Overman went to the White House to ask the President to withdraw the nomination of J. M. Burrows as postmaster, at Asheboro, and was interrogated concerning the three applicants for the vacant judgeship. "Would you appoint a Democrat?" asked Mr. Overman, laughiug. The f resident said he would not unless ht could not find a fit Republican. "Well, it is none of oar fight, Mr. President, But you must name a a man who can fill the place credit ably. He should be a first class lawyer. The President promised Mr. Over man to withdraw Burrows appoint ment. COW FOR SALE I have for sale a fine fresh fall blooded Jersey Cow, entitled to registration.
