Trinity College and
Cigarette
Money.
Ei-Governor Jarvis went to Durham
and made a congratulatory ipeech at
the laying of the corner stone of Trinity
college to be erected largely by money
from the Dukes, of cigarette fame. The
other day he was interviewed by Web
ster's Weekly, at Reidsville, and is repor
ted to have said in answer to a question
what he thought oi the cigarette trust :
"I am dead against trusts and com
bines of all kinds. The whole bus
iness is infamous and ought to be
crushed out. I was agninst the re
moval of Trinity to Durham, because
it goes there mainlv on that kind of
money. I believe in the Bible with all
my heart, not only as showing the re
vealed way, from earth to heaven, but
when it talks about any question of law,
science or agriculture, you may put your
foot on its dictum and be satisfied that
you are standing on the rock bottom
truth. Now when I look around mc nnd
see the fearful effect of cigarettes on the
youths of the country, I am tearful that
Cod will not bless an institution which
has a cigarette for its chief corner stone
and when that fact is supplemented by ;i
knowledge of the fact that a cigarette
rests on the cutter trust."
The Durham Sun then asksex-Oovernor
Jarvis why, if the foregoing are his hon
est views and opinions, did lie "come to
Durham, and make a speech at the laving
of the very same Trinity College a few
months ago, and used words of praise of
what was being done and what the future
of the college would be? If you were
right then, you must lie wrong now ; and
if you were wrong then and right now.
will you be kind enough to tell us when
you were right ?"
The explanation of this inconsistency
the Sun has pointed out, probably is that
the governor has changed his mind, as
any man may and still be honest, and
now speaks what he believes. We do
not see how it could be otherwise than
that he should have very grave doubts
as to the success of an institution en
dowed with money earned from the salt
of cigarettes, provided he believes
cigarette and cigarette smoking to be
immoral. Are they immoral? We doubt
not passages in the Ilible could be found
that would seem to forbid the use of
what is to thousands of people the most
offensive product of the human brain and
hand.
Was Gov. Jarvis right at Durham orat
Reidsville ?
Of Jerry Simpson, the western alliance
candidate who won his way to the Kan
sas legislature on a platform of no socks
and has therefore been dubbed "Socklcss
Jerry," a story is told that when lie first
went to Topeka he stopped at a big ho
tel. When he became weary he asked to
be shown to his room. They put him
into the elevator, lieforc it could move
he walked out and said to the clerk, in
dignantly: "Here, 1 want a room with a
bed in it." The story has as much vital
ity as the one told ever since there were
secretaries of the navy who had never
been to sea. The secretary is supposed to
visit a big man-of-war for the first time.
He sees an open hatchway and looking
down into the hold of the vessel, ex
claims: "Why, the darn thing is hollow.
ain't it?"
This is a great, a moving, a grand
and glorious time to study human
nature, and in no place do we see so
many new phases of it as in some of the
alliance legislatures. Dring the Jerry
Simpsons to the front, there s a lot ol
fun in e'm.
The Citizen is informed that City
Clerk Miller's objection to the amend
ment of Asheville's charter that it
was unconstitutional because thirty
days' notice of the proposed amendment
had not been given is met by the fact
that the supreme court has decided that
point in a like case to the present one
The decision was that the legislature
having passed the bill, it was to be pre
sumed that the notice required by the
constitution had been given, and the
court would not go behind the legisla
ture to learn the exact fact in the matter,
If we have reported the court correctly
in this connection, it appears that the
recordership came into Asheville legiti
mately enough even if in a way to sug
gest that it was not very proud of itscl
' or of its nurse.
Tin? Citizkn would not 1 surprised
to learn that friends have been divided
and families broken up on the question
Ought the Rev. Sam Jones to have struck
back when struck by the unturned Texan
of what ft coincidence! Palestine?
Ought he to have turned the other cheek
or was he right in defending himself with
his arms rather than with his feet ? We
submit this highly interesting and not at
all complex problem, unanswered, to the
bright intellects of the Lyceum debaters
of this city.
Is it possible that the Durham Globe is
the only paper in the State that has the
manhood, in spite of a railroad pass, to
applaud a truly brave uct ot a most pa
triotic editor? Concord Standard.
Why applaud? The editor is always
brave and patriotic. It's part of his dai
ly duties and he takes his pay in fame,
frozen cabbage and four-foot cord wood
three-feet long.
The four cardinal principles of the
alliance party, says Jndge Peffer, are that
"land is the common heritage of man,
labor the common lot of mortals, trans
portation the life or death of commercial
industry, money the oil which lubricates
the machinery of civilization." We are
all pretty well agreed on these funde
mentals. Tub most astonishing news of the day
is that "the Chicago cabmen have peti
tioned that a $25 license be assessed on
them) 'so that only decent men will go
into the business.'" The Chicago cab
man, it should be understood, is a bird of
prey-
(at Gould and the party who were
with him in Asheville yesterday and part
of to-day it is said represent $150,000,
000 of capital. That's a mighty big
stewardship to render as account of.

TO PROVIDE ONE.
Making Merry Over a Very Seri
ous Matter and One the People

About LeglHlatlve Proceeding.
Senator Turner offered the following

says the Raleigh correspondent of the
Wilmington Messenger.
Resolved, That the state treasurer be
und is hereby authoiized to set apart a
diawer in the safe kept in his office for
the purpose of receiving all conscience
money that may be returned to the state
by nil officers and parties that feci that
they have wronged the state by taking
therefrom more than a good conscience
will allow, and that in the event that
any person who has held the office of
state printer in the last twenty years
should return to the state trcusurcr the
bonus that they feel thev have received
from the state over and above what was
commensurate with the services actually
rendered the stale, that the same be im
mediately appropriated to the Soldier's
home; that it anv member ot the general
assembly feels that lie has perpetrated a
wrong on his constituents bv not advo
cating a reduction of the price of state

Mr. Lowrv has introduced a bill to

The following bill has passed house

Theie was a notable gathering ol mer
chants nt Ruleigh Tuesday from various
parts of the state who argued before the
legislative finance committee in tavor oi
the repeal ot the merchants purchase
tax. Thev asked that in the stead a li
cense tax of $1 to $4 lie imposed on nil
merchants. This will probably lie done.
For the proposed colored agricultural
and mecanical college Winston otters
twenty-five acres of lauds; Durham
000, Wilmington !6.;00 and eight acres

one from St. Augustine college to give

Col. Francis II. Cameron has resigned
as inspector general ot the North Caro
lina stale guard ami .riutir i.. .-miui, oi
Charlotte, has been appointed to that
position.
1 he committee on insurance nave re
ported the bill favorably in the senate.
A good many changes nave been made
in the railway commission bill. A section
is added giving the commission uower to
reirulate the protection of live stock. A
new section is added to regulate the mat
ter of iniunctions so far as the nulltici
tion of rates is concerned. The compan
ies are to lie required to tile with the com
mission a statement ot their Ireignts and
passengers nnd the rales charged for the
first three months.
Govcnor Fowlc has offered a reward of
$-'oo for the arrest of Charles Williom
son, the young white man who murdered
his brother in Cleveland county last week.
The Senate committee has reported fa
vorably on a bill to charter a railway

The law forbidding the running at large
of stock will be extended to several coun
ties. About forty counties have for some
years had the benefit of the act.
A bill lias been introduced to incorpor
ate the North Carolina society for the
prevention of cruelty to animals and
children.
The committee on the redisricting of
the State into new Congressional districts
will get ut work this week and has a
task before it. A good many changes are
expected.
Many county alliances are instructing
members of the legislature to vote for a
bill increasing the school tax from 12' a to
23 cents on the $100 valuation of prop
erty, and for a bill decreasing the interest
rate from 8 to 6 per cent.
Senator Bellamy will introduce a bill to
have valued policies in North Carolina
on real estate. The bill will require all
insurance companies which issue policies
on buildings in case of total destruction
by fire to pay to the insured the face of
the policy.
