At an Illustration of the reckless disregard of the prerogative of the Legislative branch of the Government, ibe eitravaganee and the trend to otter Imperialism ot thia admirtlsfratlon,J deair to submit a few faoU to tho reader! of Ibli correspondence. If tbe people1 elect Roosevelt the; may expeot It to increase. If they want it ttopped they will elect Parker. It is np to the people. ' Here are some faotit Presideot Roosevelt'i Pebsion Order it only one of many esses that might be cited of appropriation of money by Kieootive Order) in faot, the Executive Departments at Washington, following the lead of the President, are begin ning to consider it presumptions in Congress to qnestion any demand they may make upon the Treasury, and look upon it as a thing to be proud of if they can find some way to obtain tbe money, regardless of tbe Aot of Cm gress, upon their recommendation. Io the estimate for 1903 Admiral Bradford recommended to ihe Bureau of Tards and Docks of tbe Navy that 160 000 00 be appropriated for building ooal abeds at Mare Island. Tbe matter was con sidered by the Committee on Naval Affaire, and tbey refused to report the item of tbe bill. Congiees accordingly declined to make any appropriation, but tbe Department took out of tbe money appropriated for ooal a eum sufficient to build tbe sheds, and bikh cffloiala of that Department are report ed as having obaokled over the faot that tbey ooold acoompliah their pur poses regardless of tbe will of Congress The Naval Observatory at Washington is being rebuilt for a hospital, under an appropriation for medicine and surgery, in which is a clause providing for minor repairs. It has long been tbe oostom in the Departments, in con nection with general oontraots, to make an occasional smaller agreement to cover necessary work not speoifled or anticipated in the original contract. These agreements are known as ' ex tras," and are supposed to eover item. of only a few hundred dollars. Uoder the contract for remodeling and repair ing certain buildings at Fort Sheridan, an extia agreement has been executed to put up new buildings entirely, in place of tbe remodeling nnder tbeorig inal contraot. Tbe lw provides thai all buildings to be constructed, and, in tact, all work to be done, most be ad vertised for, and bids abstracted end forwarded to the Department with the recommendation for award. The nanal award is made on 'be reoommendation of tbe Quartermaster lo charge. Noth ing of tbis sort was done In connection with the new buildings at Fort Sheri dan. Tbe cost for remodeling aod repairing tbe old buildings uodr tbe original contraot was about $30 000 00 while tbe "extra" agreement executed as a part of the original oontraot for the construction ol tbe new buildings bas amounted to over $60,000 00. The "extra" baa become more than double tbe original legal oontraot. Tbe im propriety, as well as the illegality, of shutting off all possible competition by basing large extras ipr original oon- atrnotion wo k on a contract for remodeling, is too evident to need argument. Qiartermaster General John L. Clem of toe Division of tbe Philippines; at the end of tbe last fiscal year, turned baek into tbe Treasury Department an un xpended balanee ot some IHM.UUUUU For this he was severely reprimanded by the War Department. Tbis is tbe first recorded instance in the history of he world where a public official bss been censured for saving money to bis Government. Tbe instance is well known but it eannot be too much em phasis-id. Ueneral Ulem seems not to nave any followers io bis borne country. Here the deficit takes tbe place of ibe sur plus. Tbe expenditures for famish ings on Army transports nnder tbe impetus of the war spirit are reaohing mperial maeninoenoe. Ibe nnest lin en, tbe handsomest ppt glass, tbe purest silver syrup pimbere, for instance, oosting from $15 00 to f 18 00) vinegar oroete ot similar value everything of richnese patterned after tbe armies of ibe Old World where the armies are biceer tbao tbe nation. Thia disease seems to have been eootracted at Kiel durioc the sojonrn there of General Corbin and biB associates. And the army on the land is oompe ting soaeettitully with tbe army on the eea. Tbey are now expending many thonsands on post exchanges wbicb ate designated privately as "Army play booses" gvmnasinm boildiogs, with the finest of modern cauipments, suob as art supposed to be needed by ool lege students who devote their time to study and not by soldiers wno get an abundance ol exeroise in tbe open air Bowline alleys in pairs at a oost ot $1,200 illustrate tbis scale of expense, A macadam iod from Fort uoogias to Bait Lake City is now being con strnoted at a coat ot $25 000 00, tbe oontraot being made in a lump sum an unuiual way ot making soon oontraots. Another fresh Illustration of the gen eral poliey of extravagance is tbe campaign telegram tent a tew days ago to Governor Wright in tbe Philippine Islands and tbe oampaisn ttatemeat reneived In reply tbe coat ot the two cablegrams being estimated at from $700.00 io $1000 00 at Government rates, the eoet of oourae being borne by the Government. The Washington Pott, whose General poliey is to support tbe Administration, estimated the eost of the eablesrram at not less than $70000, possibly more. It Roosevelt's ooliev should be endorsed oy nia eieo tion. It it not improbable that when the campaign tor hit re-election in 1908 is on, the uorernment win ne maae to divide with the Trusts tn eost inereor. Col. Nat T. Crntehfleld, former jour nat clerk of the National Home of Eepresentatives, at present olerk ot tbe Commission to Codify the Criminal Statutes ot the United States, and all aronnd observer and llterateur, hat just returned from a trip to tbt Worldt Fair In St, Looit.

Any man who susses it misses tbe opportu nity of hit life." CHAS. A. KDWA.BD8 THE PB0TI0T1VI TAIIFI. It Is refreshing, in these degenerate days, to print suob elear-cut orthodoxy as tbis from onr old friend, ex-Congressman Grady i Majob Bali : The effort wbioh is been made, acoording to reports, by the candidates who are endeavoring to deceive onr people about the work logs of tbe proteotive tariff, ioduoes me to ask spaee in yonr paper to pre sent some statements made by some distinguished Republicans, and to in vite tbe followers ot these candidates to frame for themselves satisfactory anawerato two questions. roenrsisiaiemeDi ibioddq id nem nisoeooes of Abraham Lioooln." page 483, and was written by tho late Dono Piatt, of Obio, who served as a Ueneral n the Northern army during tbe war between tbe States It says "While it seems a oheap philanthropy to free another man's slave, tbe fact was thai it was not aoother man's slave. Tbe uorfqnited toil of the slave was more valuable to tbe North than to the Sooth. With our keen boaLess in stioots, we of ibe free S'ates utilized tbe work ot tbe masters. Tbey made, without saving, all" not some "that we accumulated." Tbe second statement is f iund in a speeob delivered in tbe House ot Rep esentatives on tbe 31st of March, 1897, by Hon. Joseph H. Walker, of Woroes ter, Massachusetts a Republican with out guile. Recalling and criticizing a speeob of Hon. George McDuflJe, of South Carolina, in whiob he dmoaooed tbe proposed tariff act of 1832 as a scheme to transfer the wealth of Ibe South to the North, Mr. Walker said t But prosperity did come to the North, and Mr. MoDuffis, feeling that a por tion of tbe profits of tbe unpaid labor of tbe Sooth" slave labor, he means- was shared by tbe North tbronsh tbe system of protection, was determined to deprive tbe North ot Us prosperity, that tbe South mil. bt reaob the whole of what tbey telt to be tbmr every ad vantage from its unpaid labor condi tione." Now, before proetding further, let i compare the admissions of these wo men, and determine for ourselves whether Piatt's "keen business in stioots" should not have been "keen thieving instincts " The third statement, wbiou was in tbe newspapers a few days sgo, was made by a Southern man with North ero principles Speaker Joseph G. Cannon, ot Illinois, who was born in Guilford oouo y, N. C. He said that, as tbe North bad Ibe most of wb&t be oalled "industries" and most cf the wealth of the United States, the South ought not to be allowed a controlling voioe in Federal legislation, in otber words, Ibe people who by "keen busi oefa instiuote" have unjustly filled their coffers with tbe wevltb produced by the South, ought to be permitted to "pros per" at our expense tor all tbe coming a pep. Now, my first qacstion is: Are these candidates ignorant enough to believe be old wornont falsehood that 'the foreigner pays ihe tax''t and theseoond Can any self respecting wbite man support a party which bas tbe impu dence to deny to a plundered partner any votoe ic modifying the conditions under which tbe plundering may pro ceed indefinitely t B F uBADT.

Bryan was a dead one. We have been hold tn-bsmranffurtmndo lis eldritch screech and solemn growl tbat Mr. Bryan was absolutely without it flaenoe with the Demooratio voters of tbe country. Ia view of that faet it it not uninteresting to observe tbat a staff correspondent of tbe Cbioago Tribune, a stalwart Republican paper, telegraph' log from Iadianapolit lo bit paper, says: "Bryan is saving thousands of votes in Indiana, but be it not making any. He bas been in the Slate- since Ibe middle of tbe week, and has bad tx traordinary receptions every where. His crowds have been tbe only ones of any magnitude duriog tbis campaign. He it doing the work for which be was brought to Indiana, and doing it well That is to say, Bryan bas stopped the landslide against Parker among tbe old Stiver Demooratr. He will, in all probability, hold tbe Democratic vote abont to tbe normal ngores, and bas put an end to tbe intended slump io Watsin. ' Tbe wisdom of Tom Taggart in bringing Bryan to Indiana bas been fully jastiflid, because enormous audi eooes all over tbe country have demon strated tbat tbe Nebraska leader still possesses all bis old time magnetism He bas argued with tbe people with bis osnal cleverness tbat while be is still a silver man, while be disagrees raoi oally with Parser's gold telegram, and while be does not like the influences which surround Parker in New York, still Parker stands for some things in the Demioratio platform which Bryan stands for. "Bryan is miking the issue tbat ho loves Parker not more, but Roosevelt lees, and this issue is taking with the old Bryan Free Silver Democrats. He is keeping them in the party, and hi visit to Indiana is worth at least 10,000 votes to the Democratic State and na tional tickets, and possibly more." This wonld seem to indioate that Mr Bryan has not lost his bold upon ibe voters of tbe country. Tbe fast is Mr. Bryan's sinoerity, bis ur questioned de votion to tbe welfare ot tbe people, his eloquence, bis untarnished integrity, bis freedom from suspicion of any alii anoe with thoe interests that are es seotially selfiah, and tbat menace tbe interests of tbe oommon people have made him a power and will keep him a power as long as be chooses lo remain in tbe roblic eye. Tbe Virginian-Pilot elated over half a year ago that it looked to see Mr. Bryan bolt tbe party. It ctnfesses oot merely to sn error of judgment, bnt to an admiration of Mr. Bryan tbat bas been earned by a party loyalty that may not be doubted and by tho ener grtio exercise of an itflueooe honorably earned and honorably used.

Mr Editor: I am glad Dr. Sneed saw fit to correct me in yesterday's issue of yoor paper. ir is. a laot mat in toe legislature or 1879 one or two negro magistrates were appointed but not by Gov.

As you no doubt remember a Republican rep resented tbat oouoty in the Legislature of 1879, and when tbe appointment ot magistrates was being discussed, tbe Bladen member appealed to tbe com mittee to let bim name a magistrate or two and if tbey would be would name honorable upright white men. Believ ing tbat be would do bat be promised aod therefore granted tbe rt quest.

Bnt for tbe weather, to day would have seen a big crowd on tbe grounds to witness tbe races and tour nament, acd the second shoot of the Fayetteville Gun Clnb. The races and tbe shoot proved Btar attractions yes terday, and to-day the tournament was to be added We must not quarrel with tbe acts of Providence, however, and take ihe disappointments as good natnredly as possible.

Disastrous Wreck Carelessness 1 responsible for many a railroad wreck and tbe same causes are making human wrecks of sufferers from Throat and Lung trouble, but since the advent of Dr Eine's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and colds, even tbe worst cue can be cared, and hopeless resignation is no longer necessary.

They found that all the bolts on the big cor rldor door of tbe cage had been broken, and that with very little more effort the prisoners would have been . free. It tnrned out that there were some plumbers in the jail yesterday, and they carelessly left a cold chisel and a monkey wrench behind, and It was with these tools that the prisoners did heir very effective work. The Oldeet aad the lonogeit ttienge. In looking over the list r f Fayette ville people who attended the consecra tion of Dr. Strange as Bishop io Wil mington Tuesday, we were struck by tbe faot that Fayetteville furnished the oldeet and the youngest living m mbera ot the distinguished Strange family, to wit: Mrs. James Strange, and Mr. ud Mrs. 8. H. S:range's little eon amnel. Marriagt ol Looal Interest. The following Invitation has been received by friends here: Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Spencer Ellis respectfully Invite your presence at the marriage of their daughter, Addle Vernon, to Mr. Andrew McGowen Wednesday evening, Nov. the ninth, nineteen hundred and four, at nine o'clock, 308 North Tarbcro Street, Wilson, N.

James Iprant Moncgrsph Io. i We have just received from the U01 versity of N. C. the Jamas Sprunt Monograph No. 5, being Ibe Minutes ot tbe Kehukee Association of the Primitive Baptists. 17G9 77 They contain the first urcranizition of the association, its rules, members and effi oers; also tbe account of tbe subsequent meetings to 1777. Tbe original wes carried to Tennessee by Joel Fort, a member, and a copy was given by his descendant, Mr. Joel B. Fort, a lawyer in that State, to Dr. H. B. Bittle. who transferred it to the University. From this publication may be seen tbe names ot the leaders of the great Baptist de nomination in eastern North Carolina at a most critieal period in our history. Burkitt and Read, in writing their history of the Kehukee Association, evidently never saw these minutes. Tbe questions on subjects of morals and social conduot, and tbe frank an swers thereto, are of especial import ance. Among other things it will be seen that lotteries were denoonoed as gambling at a time when they were sed for building schools and even churches. A letter from Mr. Joel B. Fort giving tbe history ot tbe document is pub lished. Among other things we find that Andrew Jackson, in 1789, acted as guard to the settlers from Ihe moon tains to their destination west of Nath ville. Dr. Kemp P. Battle bas, as in the prior Sprunt Monograph, published an introduction and notes illustrating the text. After reading tbis Monograph Ibe reader will have increased respeot fur the sincerity, piety, thoogh'tfnlnets and wisdom of onr ancesto s of the Revolu tionary period.
