The- President's recommendation ;
to retire tbe treasury rotes and issue j
Gye hundred iiillion dollars worth
of golsi tond3 will not meet popular
approval; and, if it should become a
!av, w?nld not relieve the condition
of the country, though it would pre
vent the present constant drain on
the treasury for gold. That drain
can be largely prevented by making
import taxes payable in gold, as the
President suggests, without the i?3ue
of the bonds.
This is no time either to contract
the currency or to increase the pub
lic debt. Wise statesmanship ought
to find a solution of the present
financial troubles without recourse
to eithei of these evils.
There must be a compromise.
Neither the New York nor the
Southern idea can be embodied in a
statute Carlisle's plan was along the
right line, and if the New York and
New England Democrats had ac
cepted it, the treasury would be safe,
the country would be giyen a plen
tiful supply of good currency, and a
safe use of more silver would have
been provided.
It is no time for the President to
insist upon gold bonds. Such in
sietence will prevent any action be
ing taken, for the Southern acd
Western men cannot Bupport a
scheme so diametrically opposed to
all their convictions.
This is a time for sensible corns
promise if any financial legislation
is to be expected. Raleigh Observer.

And shall Hose the laith I knew
That stanza just tbout fi's
njs my feelings when I look back
at last November cyclone and
ruminate on its results acd
s&S&icalcuiate the time and think
of tbe hard lick3 it will take to clean
up this political field of ours ready
for another crop of good feeling and
prosperity. I scoaetimes have a no
tion, to take advantage of my Metho
dist education and fall f torn race
long enough to vent my spleen when
I read bow those new hands are sup
planting the substantial fences of
good government (staked and ridered
with economy) with a measely brush
affair that wont turn the breschy
cattle of extravagance, excess and
misrule. Those fellows rvho have
got the contract to ran things for
the next two years have fooled tho
sovereign people. Their refusal to
give a one legged soldier a job was
an eye opener to the old veterans.
I can't diyine what they ere driving
at when they want to specify that
nine hours shall constitute a days
work unless a premium is to be put
on idleness. That svstem won't suit
usfarmers except in winter time,
It won's suit the mechanic because
he, as a rule, works by the job or at
eo much an hour, end as for the f ac
tory people, they ..would kick clea:
out of their traces they work by the
cut, the hank or seme other kind of
Diece work in the majority of ia
8'ances. and the more hours they
work the bigger the uay s wagee.
There is bnt one good feature about
that clause sfopping children under
14 from factory work and that s
a lot of big, burley, able bodied fel
lows would have to hustle around
little more to support these self
same self supporting children. But
then there would be lots of evils
The little ones wculd be virtually
out of a iob by a compulsory state
act. Eyen if they attended all ses
sions of public schools they ere de
barred from employment at home
during vacations and all times when
schools are not kept according 10
the general bent of human nature
they woald be in idleness reguhr
street gamins. The cutting off of
what their little hands could do
would materially afftct the quality of
their food and texture of their cloth-

They doa't know how com

ple, big and little, are contented, as
well contented a3 a Eepublicaa or
Populist in office end where they
add eccnomy to industry they are
prosperous. They dress well, better
than the most of people, and they
live well, and in mo3t instances have
some cash. These nowly constituted
law givers with their self-imposed
state craft put me in mind of a cook
my angel once hired she broke up
more crockery and dishes than her
wages came to and left more litter
and trash behind, the broom than she
carried before it. Now, if we are
going to have a nine hour Bystem,
let's make it sweeping. Let's
have no classification legis
lation, as a co'ored Concord Populist
puts it. Let the plantei, the mer-.
chant and the contractor as well as
the manufacturer understand that
all day laborers can avail themselves
of this nine hour phott stop. Then
we will see where we are at. l doubt
whether onr astute representative
would allow a nine hour fellow on
his farm in the busy season, and
frm work is a lot harder than mill
work. We old fogies used to hire
day hands and give them dinner.
We've learned better now. If we
can'c bargain for a completion of a
peice of work for a stated sum, we
hire on pay for the hours actually
consumed at so much per hoar

Senator Moody says that th1 Leg
islature will adjourn on February 15
if not before. Last night there were
caucusses on the county Gorercment
and election law bills. In an inter
view with the News & Observer re
poiter, Senator Moody says: "The
County Gcyernment Bill tases from
tha Commissioners all their judicial
powers which will be given to the
magistrates. The commissioners will
6e elected by the people; the magish
trates will be appointed by the leg
islature. The present commissioners
will remain in office two years from
last June, and at tha next election,
the new commissioners will be
chosen by the cumulative method
such as is now in vogue in Indiana,
Illinois and other States. This
mehod will insure a non-partisan
board, as if one party should put up
one man in Waki and the ether five,
each man would have the right to
veto five times each for the one can
didate or one time for the five can
didates. Moreover, the pow r here
tofore held by the commissioners of
canvassing the vote will be taken
from them, ad they will have to
take the returns on their face as
handed in from the election pr.e

The Brooklyn Strike Kuitcd.
Brooklyn, N. Y., Jan. 2S The
strikers practically surrendered to
the companies this afternoon. A
fornul statement to the public was
published by the executive com
mittee and the men tendered their
services to the presidents for $3 per
day for motoriiien aud conductors
and Sl.50 per daj for tripper d. These
terms have never been ia dieptue.
Tne men say that the move is made
in the interest of public safety and
quiet and that the non.acceptance
of their offer will be followed by ap
plicatiou for permptory mandamus
against all the lines. The presidents
will probably adhere to their former
position ot refusing to treat with
the men in a body.

The Wnr Devlin sin HexiroSUH High
City of Mexico, Jan. 28. A cabi
net council was held yesterday but
nothing is iven out. It is generally
understood, however, that tbe chief
topic wa3 the offer maie by the
United Stales government to medi
tate between Mexico and Guatemala.
The prospect of the slightest inter
vention on the part of the TJfcited
States has elicited very biHer re
marks from maay public m.?n and
has caused corsiderabie excitement
among the people. The war fever
runs so high that any power trying
to avert it must leckon with the
hostility of public opinion. In the
streets and places of popular resort
there ia but o e sentiment and that
is in favor tf Mexico's settling her
differences with Guatemala, once for
all, without toleration of outside in
fluences The nature of Guate
mala's rep'y is not learned but she is
believed to be merely fencing for
tiun.
At 10 o clock 1 bis eytuiug it be
came known that the Guatemalan
minister bad leen i-tstructcd to
make concessions. Neither he nor
any member of the cabinet would
comment on this report. Late to-,
night the opinion gains ground that
war will be averted.

Advice
Russell Sag
The great financier, gives (hs follow
(ng good fiivlcfi to boys, which
parent3 miht also read with profit :
BoyS, go to fthool as long as you
can, and remember every hour spent u
erudymyour youth will be worth money
to you in after fife. Read good books;
make yourself acquafnted with history)
study the progress of nations and tht
careers of men who have mads
nations great
" Study religion, science, statecraft
. . end history. Learn to read
Intelligently, so that you can turn to
practical use In after life the reading
of your youth. Be sure you begin
right. Do not waste lime In reading
trashy books."
Mr. Sags further saysi
M The boy who Is wanted In tha
business world of today must be
educated. If his parents cannot afford to
0ive him a college or a high school
eduucatlon he must learn to study
without the aid of a teacher, In the early
mornings before business begins, and
In tin evenings after business hours.
It can no longer be truthfully said that
en education Is out of any one's
reach."
