He Touches L'pon Many Important Subjects and Makes a Number of Wise Suggestions to the Legisla tureA Friend of the University as Well as the Public Schools of the State Opposed to the North Caro lina Railroad Lease. Gentlemen of the Senate and House of Representaves: There is a retribution in history. The restoration of the people of North Carolina to their constitutional rights of a free and honest ballot and of pop ular government, sho:.ld give courage and hope to the disfranchised men of non suffrage States. So long as civil ization and Christianity endure there is always reasonable hope for the ultimate subjugation of error enthroned; lor the redemption of the weak and oppressed; for the overthrow of apparently invin cible wrong. If they but wait an hour, there is no human power which can evade the patient watch, the vigil long of the brave who seek to assail the entrenched battlements of prevail ing privilege and lawless power. Through long and weary years free born Americans hive suffered and en dured for the sake of their convictions, civil and political disabilities that were none the less remorseless and cruel because they were not expressed in writ ten law. Men whose careers and char acters should elevate their communi ties have been under the ban of polit ical persecution and denied their con stitutional rights, while dwelling by the fire-sides and the graves ot their fathers. To-day we give thanks to the God of nature and of nations and to his Providence which shapes our ends, for the glorious fact that North Caro lina has declared for freedom of thought, of speech an 1 of action, for toleration and respect for the opin ions of all and for liberty, regulated by just and eijual laws. inv ks.tk;ate conduct ok drunkkn JUDGES. There are many matters of domestic concern which demand your thought ful attention, such as the increase of the tax rate for the common schools and improvements in their manage ment; the establishment of reformato ries for youthful criminals; the adop lion of a system of vagrant laws which, without cruelty or injustice, shall au thorize the arrest and commitment of the homeless young and of the vaga bonds and vagrants of the streets and highways; the adoption of a system of apprenticeship by which the neglected young may be taken Irom degrada tion and subjected to useful and eleva ting control; the protection of lawful public meetings against disturbances; the invention of the conduct ot judges charged with drunkenness on the bench; the extension of the criminal court districts so as to embrace more counties and the rotation these judges; and the adopti n of measures calculated to attract the immigration of desirable persons in the State. ELECTION LAW COMMENDED. Uy the election law of 1S95 we were rescued lrom the disgrace, degrada tion and shame of a debauched ballot and from the methods that would have lesultcd in the permanent failure of free government and would have de graded us to the level of the riot-ridden democracies of Central and Soutli America but for the fact that our people rose in revolt against them and their authors, drove the usurpers from power and declared that knavery should be supplanted by honesty. Among the best features of our present election law is that which gives to judges of our higher courts a supervi sory pover over election officers and gives summary remedies to compel the execution of the law. Our Supreme court judges have liberally construed this law in favor of justice and have struck terror among malefactors who hoi ed to evade it. This jurisdiction ought to be extended sj that the judges should have unquestioned author Uy to supervise all the election officers and issue proper and summary process to compel a compliance with the law. Much fraud and confusion would be avoided and greater certainty effected and expenses in election contests saved by providing that all ballots should be numbered to correspond with the num ber of the poll list. This would pro mote the secrecy of the ballot because it would then be deposited without be ing looked at and the poll list should be certified, closed and sealed before the counting of the ballots. Provision should be made to prevent the failure of election because of the loss of reg istration or other books. OUR JUDICIAL SYSTEM. In 1S6S our system of civil judicial procedure was revolutionized by the amalgamation of the law and the eq uity courts. This change, then vio lently denounced has stood the test of experience and is now generally ad mitted to have been a great and last ing reform. Vet much of the falla cies of the old system has been pre served by the new. Not the least among these is the doctrine that equit able remedies must be denitd if there be an apparent legal remedy. Liws should be for the prevention as well as the reparation of wrong. Wrong should be prohibited and the remedies for their prohibition should be as easy and as universal as possible. No de fendant should be heard to say that he should not be enj jined or prohibited from the commission of an unlawful act because he can be held in damages or otherwise compelled tocompensate, Actions of an equitable nature should be sustained even though there be another remedy known among the lawyers as the strictly legal. Equitable and legal remedies should be emulative. Preventive processes should be encourged and enlarged. The policy of every judicial system should be to prevent the commission of wrong. Wit'n the centuries looking down upon us since the law was given "thou shall" and "thou shall not," we should have passed the period when a cotnplaintanl could be told from the judgment seat "you have shown that the defendant is about to wrong you but you must wait until he does it and then get compensation." TO CUT DOWN EXPENSES. The condition of the State Treasury is such as to demand the most severe economy in all departments of the State government. This is an exigen cy which should be faced and not evaded. The expenses of the State government outside of the penitenti ary and Agricltural department have increased from about $229,000 in 1880 to $482,000 in 1890 and $627, 000 in 1896. This is an increase in expense of no per cent, in ten years, and 176 per cent, in sixteen years, while the increase in wealth in ten years was only 45 per cent, and in six teen years only 65 per cent. The property of the State has been and is taxed to about the limit of reasonable endurance. Is it not clear that the only remedy is the reduction of "pub lic expenditures? There might be a saving in the abolition of the Agricul tural Uureau, but for the fact that it is supported by a fund which cannot be directed in the State Treasury without involving grave constitutional ques tions. By the abolition of the Bureau of Statistics and of the Geological Bu reau, there can be saved by the State about , and by close scrutiny of ail appropriations in all departments our expenditures may be considerably reduced . LYNCHINGS AND MOBS. When tin's Legislature adjourns the word should go out to the world that crimes called lynchings must stop in North Carolina. The way to end it is plain. Remove the excuse for it. It is no justification to say, what is not denied, that in many cases the vic tims deserve what tiiey get. Barba rous brutes who commit nameless crimes must be killed. But lot it be done under the forms of law. Let there be none of the law's delay. Give the executive power to call a court in stanter; order the judge by telegraph to the county of crime. Try the criminal; if proper for appeal convene the appellate court on shortest possible notice; send down the judgment and instantly perform its mandates. Scarce ly a case of mob murder of a guilty culprit has occurred wherein he would not have been convicted by judge and jury. In most cases the lynchings have been attributable to a spirit of lawlessness. The only reasonable ex-cu-e that can be offered is in the fail ure or delay of the law. Make the law so that there can be no delay and no reasonable apprehension of failure. Provide better remedies for the pros ecution of criminals who take the law into their own lawless hands. Author ize their indictment and trial in coun ties removed from their influence and put them on trial before juries who be lieve in order and law. THE BENEFIT OF RAILROADS. The regulation of State and inte state commerce by common carriers is among the most important and far reaching questions of the day. North Carolina has derived more material benefit in the last fifteen years from railroad development thin from any other one source. We should not for j get that however profitable these in vestment may nave uccn to iiotl-rcsi-dent capitalists, we also have been and are their beneficiaries. Their invest ments in these properties should be protected by our laws and by a public sentiment that frowns upon all at tempts to make prejudice against them because they are supposed to be rich. State, municipal and corporate prom ises made to them for the purpose of obtaining expected benefits to us should be sacredly performed. We will not encourage, sanction or countenance financial repudiation in any form. Railroads, while their earnings and profits belong to their owners, are the servants of the public and under our system of government are subject to governmental control. The time is approaching, if it lias not nrr:ved, for the adoption of a policy whicii without wrong to their owners shall L:ok to wards the conversion of them into public highways, owned and controlled by the nation. While we admit our obligations to thjse whose enterprise and capital have constructed and bet tered them, we must always insist upon just and strict enforcement of their ob ligations to the nublie. Against virr- S o r o o I orous opposition we have created a I railroad commission. Its benefits are apparent and ought to be admitted by all. To it we are indebted for the regulation and in many cases the re duction of traffic rates and to the ex cellent servxe which is given by most of the railroads in our State. Their passenger rates which prevail in our S'.ate seem to be not unreasonable. It is questionable whether at this session of our Legislature there should be at tempted a policy of rate reduction in this particular. As to freight rates, there are evidences that they are ex cessive when compared with the enor mous decline of the value of the com modities upon which they are levied. NORTH CAROLINA RAILROAD LEASE. The State has a large, and what ought to be a controlling interest in the North Carolina railroad. An at tempt has been made to pass from the State its interest in this great property for what is bel eved to be an inade quate consideration. The lease of ninety-nine years of all the rights, franchises and property, real and per sonal and mixed, of this railroad com pany to a foreign or non-resident cor poration was made without the sanc tion of the Legislature or of the" pvO ple of the State. It was made at a lime when nobody expected it. It was made within a few months after the adjournment of our General As sembly. It was made without appli-" cation to the Legislature. It was made without due discussion or submission to the people of the State, all of whom were interested because the railroad is their property. It was made six years before the existing lease expired. It was made substantially by one man and that man the Governor of the State, who acted without the advice of their representatives. It was made, so far as the people know or believe, with out inviting competition among the bidders. It was made under circum stances which indicated intentionally secrecy. It was called a lease. It was in reality an attempted sale of this property belonging to our tax-payers without consultation and without their advice or consent. Indeed, it was done when they did not even suspect that it was contemplated. NOT A LEASE, BUT AN ATTEMPTED PUR CHASE. The so-called lessees, the real at tempted purchasers, of this railroad are members and owners of a corporation which belongs to another State. They seek to own and conduct and operate this great highway without asking the consent of the State which built it and which owns it. When the State under takes to complain of this transaction in its courts this foreign corporation will deny their jurisdiction and attempt scooooccooooo:okoccoxkcco "There are Others:" But lew week' v newspaper offices in North Carolina better equipped with the latest, most attractive type faces, borders, ornaments,etc, for advertising purposes than THE GOLD LEAF.

It is within your power, gen tlemen of the Senate and House of Representatives, to provide by law that no foreign or non-resident corporation shall hold or operate any railroad with in this State, by lease, purchase or otherwise, except upon a license to be granted by such court, commission, officer or tribunal as you may desig nate,and that no such license shall be granted power to the effect that the examination has been made and that the control, operation and manage ment of such railroad by a foreign or non-resident corporatioa is not preju dicial to the interests of the State. And you have the power further to provide for the revocation of any such license by the granting power; and you have the further power to say by your law that any or every license shall be revoked as to any such non- ! resident corporation which snail at tempt to remove from your courts any case to which it may be a party. It ii believed that the lease claimed by this foreign corporation is ultra vires and void and that it would be so held upon the merits by our court of last resort. It is submitted that it is your du'y to enact such measures as are best calcu lated to bring up this question for seedy determination in jour own courts and prevent its removal to any ; other jurisdiction. THE LEASE SUttJECT TO SOYER1GN POWER. I But whether this ninety-nine ear , lease be void or valid on the strictly legal merits existing at the time of its ! consummation, it is to be re.nembered j that this foreign corporation obtained j and accepted it and claims a right to ; own and operate this railroad, not by virtue of any North Carolina statute, but under an unwritten rule, which is known to lawyers as the comity f States and nations. This unwritten rule, wherever it prevails, is always subject to revocation by the local sov ereign. In this case you are the sov ereign. The State may at any time decline to extend this comity. This so-called lease was taken subject to this sovereign power. The lessees can not be allowed to say that they have acquired vested rights under existing laws and thus put themselves beyond the power of the State and within the protection ot that clause of the Federal Constitution which prohibits a State from impairing the obligation of con tracts. This contention is no more tenable than would be that of a do mestic corporation which would say that the State cannot repeal its charac granted under the State Constitution, which expressly reserves the right to amend or repeal all charters. This oreign corporation derives its right t 1 operate a railroad within our borders by what is substantially a license from the State granted under an unwritten law. Every one of our home railroads derives its powers and franchises under a written license, that is, its charter. As to these, the Legislature may re voke the license by repealing the char ter. If it cannot revoke the unwritten license then it has come to this: that foreign corporations may come upon our soil and exercise these great pow ers and franchises without our consent and thereby obtain important privi leges which are denied to our own peo ple. REPEAL PARALLELING CHARTERS. It is most important that the North Carolina Railroad should not be crip pled or its value impaired by permit ting any corporation or person to par allel it by the construction of any line, or of one mile of railroad which would connect existing lines so as to have a connection through the State, compet itive to our own. If there be any charter heretofore granted by our State which permits this to be done, it should be promptly repealed. o You are invited to adopt any and all measures within your competency looking towards the recovery of this property for the benefit of the people and the tax payers of the State. RATE CUTTING HELPFUL. Recently the producers of the State have derived some benefit from an ac tual competition between two great railroad systems running through our State. Judging the future by the past, we must conclude that this competition so beneficial to us is only temporary and may end in the absorption of one line by the other. Our laws should prohibit the control of any railroad by ! any road, route or syctem competitive to it, and especially by any road th -it runs in the same direction or connects with the same termini. Much good may come from a statue carefully pre pared and providing every practicable protection against evasion. THE PEOPLE HAVE NO LOBBY. Among the evils that beset honest legislatures is the syste u of lobbying. i But let it be remembered that unfre- j quently legislative lobbies swarm with ' concealed and hired representatives of corporate and other interests who seek '. to promote or prevent measures in which their concern is purely pecuni- I ., . 1 - , 1 ary. 1 hese men are frequently trained! politicians and lawyers. l hey repre sent one side that is antagonistic to the real welfare of the Stae. The people have n lobby. The-e old bearers of burdens, the common peo pie, are never heard except through their selected representatives. THE GOVERNMENT OF CITIES. Our present county government law gives expression to the popular will and representation to minority. Coun cils and m liters of local concern are ignored in the strife of party rewards. This (ieneral Assembly will be called on to deal with the management ot to-viis and eities. There should b ! -t'.iempt to avoid the necessity 't protecting the tax payers i thee uvi nifii times agamsf the eUngir of tins rule by propertle-s and ijn ra!i( ele ments.

Puritan. MORE PENSIONS FOR THE VETERANS. May we do a little more in the way of homes and pensions for the destitute survivors of the civil conflict? North Carolina had her soldiers in both armies. 'The national government cares for those who fought for us flig. As we advance in material wealth we should increase our expenditures for the destitute and disabled veterans of the armies of the "storm cradled na tion that fell." FOSTER THE UNIVERSITY. Among the most important objects of our care is the State University. It is to be regretted that there is among some of the best people of the State a sentiment that does not sustain the existing law which gives an annual appropriation to this institution a sum which should be increased but for the fact that the condition of the State treasury may not justify it. If there be anything in the State laws or in the management ot the University which gives, with State money, free tuition to persons who are pecunia rily able to pay and thus takes from the denominational colloges, students who w mid voluntarily help to sustain them, then such laws and politics should be abandoned. But if this free tuition is confined to those who cannot pay, where is the harm to the denomina tional colleges? The lun'ucU number of these ftee students does not add appreciably to the expense of main taining the University. It is about that much pure gain to meritorious youn i men without entailing taxation on anybody. Neither does this State aid subtract materially from the effi ciency of the public, schools. If given to them it would extend only one day 'and a fraction of a day each year. In this University we have a plant that represents about $500,000. We cannot afford to throw away this prop erty. The constitution forbids it. The memories, the traditions and the pride of our people revoit at the thought. The shadows and soil of Chapel Hill are sacred in thousand? ;( North Car. olina homes.

It is no more competitive to the re ligious and sectarian colleges tnan are public schools to the private acade mies. Complaints from denomina tional colleges should be heard with the deference due to their authors, who should be made to feel that we rejoice in their growing prosperity. 1 But the University is a part of the State and must be preset ved.

Some Amusing Attemptsto Define the Nectar cf Hden Every One Knows What a Kiss is, to be Sure, but it is Not so F-asy to Correctly Describe t Perhaps Some of Our Readers May be Able to do so. A recent con'est for the bet defini tion of a kiss, brought forth seven thousand answers. The definition below took the prize An insipped and tasteless morsel, which becomes de licious and delectable in proportion as it is flavor ed with love. The following is a selection from some of the best definitions submit ted. What the chimney-sweeper im printed on the rosy lip? of the scullery maid when she told him she favored his soot. The sweetest fruit on the tree of love. The oftener plucked the more abundant it grows. A thing of no use to one, but much prized by two. The baby's right, the lover's privi lege, the patient's benison, and the hypocrites mask. That which you cannot give without taking, and cannot take without giv-, ing- j The food by which the flame ot love is fed. The flag of truce in the pretty wars courtship and marriage. The acme of agony to a bashful man. The only known "smack" that will calm a storm. A telegram to the heart in which the operator uses the "sounding" sys tem. Nothing divided between two. Not enough for one, just enough for two, too much for three. The only agreeable two-faced ac tion under the sun or on the moon either. The sweetest labail of the world's language. The woman's most effective argu ment. wh'lr t cajole tje heart of a father control the humors of a husband or console the griefs of childhood. Soiiit'tliinc rather dangerous, S-unethitig rather nice, Something rather wicked, Tlionjjh it can't be called vice. Sotii": think it naughty. Others think it wron;, All agree it's jolly. Though it don t last long. A kiss from a pretty girl is like hav ing a hot treacle poured down your baik by angels. The thunder clap of the lips, which inevitably follows the lightning glance of the eyes. A report at headquarters. Everybody's acting edition of Romeo and Juliet. What the child receives free, what the young man steals and what the old man buys. The drop that runneth over when the cup is full. That in which two heads are better than one. A kiss is three parts of speech a transitive verb, an invisible noun, and a visible conjunction. Printing with ut ink, leaving no visible impression. Woman's passport to her husband's purse, and man's passpjrl to wo man's heart. Love's artillery that is brought into action imtnedtately on the "to terms. Contraction of the mouth due to by any other medium known. Naiure's Volapuk the universal language of love. A womam's trump card in the game of love. An article that is always accepted and f 1111) printed, bit not always pub lished. The action of the bps by which the real sentiments of the heart are either affectionately expressed or false ly dguised. I am just two and two. I am warm, I am Cold, And the parent of numbers that cannot le told. I am lawful unlawful a duty, a fault, I am often sold itear good for nothing when bought. An extraordinary Ukjii, and a matter of course. And yielded with pleasure when taken by force. A gift seldom which is sometimes expected rejected, though often re- turned. The safety valve to an exuberance of tender feelings. The lover's privilege and the pug dog's right. What the child gives, the lover steals, the fook-h waste and the old value.

No one elso makes, or ever has made Simmons Liver Regulator, or anything called Simmons Liver Regulator, but J. II. Zeilm A Co., and no medicine made by anyone else is the same. We alone can put it up. and we cannot be responsible, if other medicines represented as the eame do not help you as you are led to expect they will. Bear this fact well in mind, if you have been in the habit of using a medicine which you supposed to he Simmons Li ver Regula tor, because the name was eomewhat like it, and tho package did not have the word Regulator on it, you have been imposed upon and have not been taking Simmons Liver Regulator at all. The Regulator has been favorably known for many years, and all who use it know how nceei8ary it is for Fever nnd Ague, Bilious Fever, Constipa tion, Headache, 1'yepepsia, and all disorders arising from a Diseased Liver. We ask you to look for yourselves, and see that Simmons Liver Regulator, which you can readily distinguish by the Red Z on wrapper, and by our name", is the only medicine called Simmons Liver Regulator.
