"It is clear to all," said President
Roosevelt in his address, "that the

fare Of mankind.
This is a broad statement. It ma v
te that "the triumph of the cause of
freedom and of the Union was esseu
tial to the welfare of mankind," but
it is not "clear to all." Slavery was
doomed long .before the war began.
but it is not necessarily trtiethat the
emancipation of the slaves could have
come in another way save through a

wonkj have set the slaves free. Slav

have no shadow of a doubt. We are

A Dangerous Policy.
Raleigh Post. i
The editor of the North Carolina i
Baptist pummels the nail hard on the !
head as follows: "There is talk in
Raleigh t hat if the city does not con-
tinue to get one-half of the money
made from the dispensary there that
it will kill the institution in the eyes
of many Ral-igh folks: Now then. It
looks like their love for the institu
tion is not the reform that it may
accomplish, but the dollars they can
make off the poor unfortunates in the
capital city. This thing of running a
public liquor shop for the money that
can be made out -of it for the public
treasury is a dangerous policy. It
js calculated to make moral cowards
of men and lead them to sell into
ruin and disgrace a large part of their
fellow men iu order to get revenue
for public purposes. It is a crime
against God and man to make mer
chandise of men."
The Morning Post, several months
ago, seeing the trend of things here,
undertook to show that the dispen
sary was not a moral institution, and
was promptly informed . through
another newspaper, by a man who
was an ardent advocate of the dis
pensary, that it was never claimed
for it that it was amoral institution.
No denial came from any source, and
since then it has only been recognized
as a revenue producer.
This much is said that people in
other towns may know that Raleigh
citizens are not deceived about what
they have in the dispensary, and, so
far as we can see, are practicing no
deception about it.

KOMEN NOT
This Statement Has Been
Modest Women Evade Questions Asked By
Male Physicians,
An eminent physician says that
Women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician." This statement
should be qualified; women do, tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this is only in re
gard to those painful and troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
There can be no more terrible ordeal
to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions when those questions are
asked, even by her family physician
Ihis is especially the case with un
married women.
Is it any wonder, then, that women
continue to suifer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot get the proper information to
work on 7

Slander on the' Women.
Raleigh Times.
An exchange prints the statement
that "sixty-nine per cent, of the in
mates of a Western prison say that
they were led to commit crime by the
extravagance of their wives."
We refuse to believe it it is a base
slander on the sex. About GO per
cent, of them are unmitigated liars.
Ever since the time when old Adam
lusted after the forbidden apple and
laid the blame on the woman, the
male cowards of the world have
been following his disgraceful ex
ample. The long grey whiskers on this old
Lie need the services of the barber.
There are men who will go and do
something mean or dishonest, or get
on the wrong side of the market and
get drunk, and then swear that their
extravagant wives or unhappy do
mestic relations drove them to it.
It is too thin.
There may be cases, there probably
are, where men marry extravagant
and improvident women, without
knowing they are that kind of women
at t he time, and where such marriages
"turn out badly." But they are the
exceptions.
As a general rule the average wife
is more economical and provident
than the husband and she will cheer
fully and uncomplainingly submit to
personal sacrifices and privations
wlien the wolf threatens the home,
while the man will kick like a s;eer
and swear at his misfortunes like a
trooper.
And she has greater ability to get
along under a strain and come safely
through financial disaster.
Her ideals are higher, her code of
honor more binding than the man's.
And it is God's truth to say that
her benign influence over her husband
is distinctively and decidedly good,
and acts to deter him from dishonor
or crime, and not to impel him to
commit unworthy deeds.
A man's wealth brings him a lot of
unhappinessafter he loses it.

1 A Sad, Sweet Parting.
, Rtchmopd Times-Dispateh.
! Clasped in her husband's amis and
iu the act of imprinting a kiss upon
his lips, Mrs. bdith liondero, wile of
Joseph Dmdero,Jropped dead at her
house, ia Flushing,. Y.,on Tuesday
last. Physicians say that Mrs. Don
dero was stricken with apoplexy. Her
husband was about to leave home for
his place of business. Following a
custom never once omitted duritur
their married life, says the correspon
dent, Mrs. Dondero put her arms af
fectionately about his neck, to kiss
him good-bye. It proved to be her
last caress, for.-without a sound, slie
rested her head upon his shoulder and
expired. -
What a sweet taking off that was!
and what a comforto the bereaved
husband that the list act of their
married life was a mutual embrace!
But that measure of consolation
would not have been his had he not
formed the habit of kissing his wife
when leaving home for the day. It is
a habit which every married man
should form, and unfailingly observe.
Everv man who loves his wife should
give tier a kiss at parting, be the sep
aration only for a few hours. Nor
should it be a hurried, perfunctory
kiss. It should lie a kiss of affection,
of confidence and of peace. If there
have been disagreements they should
be settled in love before the husband
leaves the house, and the good-bye
kiss should be the token and pledge
of complete reconciliation. Accounts
between husband ami wife should
never be allowed to run. There should
be a settlement us often as disagree

Incredible Brutality.
ft would hare been incredible brutality if
Chas F. Lemberger, of Syracuse, N. Y., had
not done the best he could for his suffering
son. "My boy," he says, "cut a fearful gash
over his eye, so I applied Bucklen's Arnica
Salve, which quickly healed it and saved his
eye." Good for burns and ulcers too. Only

Lawyer's Complicity in Crime.
Boston Watchman.
It is the greatest anomalv in cur-
renc ethical ideas t hat it is considered
proper and right lor a lawyer to ally
himself with the wrong iu a case iu
court and to use his best talent to
secure the acquittal of a criminal or
the triumph of a wrong. In no other
profession or calling would such a
line of action be tolerated for one
moment. Any other person placing
himself in such a position is at once
excluded from respectable society,
and m regarded as bad as the crimi
nal himself. Very curiously also the
law takes the same position in regard
to all persons shielding criminals, or
aiding in the triumph of wrong over
right. They are regarded as "acces
sories after the fact" and are pun
ished as ''particeps criminis" or ac
complices in the crime. There is, of
course, a necessity that persons ac
cused should hava Jill possible oppor
tunity to secure justice. But there is
no element of ethics which calls for
special facilities for those guilty of
crimes to escape punishment, or
which justifies any person of any pro
fession or under any code of proce
dure iu aiding criminals to escape
punishment or helping wrong-doers
to secure victory over those whose
rights they have invaded. It is a
curious commentary on the force of
form and usageahove real truth and
righteousness that lawyers alone of
all others are considered entitled to
take the position of accessories in
crime and to share in the profits of
fraud. But aside from custom it is
impossible to show why a lawyer
who aids in the escape of a criminal
from his just punishment, or enables
an attempt at fraud to he- success
fully carried out, should not be pun
ished as an accomplice, as any other
person would be who did exactly the
same thing.

The Tree and the Newspaper.
Westminster Gazette.
Everybody knows that trees ar
felled to make the wood pulp out of
which the paper used in the printing
office is manufactured. A Oerman
paper manufacturer at Esen thai has
mst made an experiment to see how
rapidly it is possible to -transform a
tree into a newspaper. 1 hree trees in
the neighborhood of his factory were
I'Ut UUW 11 Uli I ,OU 111 LI1C IUU1 IIIMJi.
They were instantly barked and
pulped, and the first roll of paper
was ready at 9:34. It was lifted into
an automobile that stood waiting,
and conveyed to the machine room
of the nearest daily paper. The paper
being already set, tne printing began
at once, and by ten o clock precisely
the journal was on sale rathe streets.
The entire process of transformation
had taken exactly two hours aud
twenty-fiTe minutes.

ROCK ISLAND SYSTEP.
Providing to Meet the lacra4 Vol
ume of Traffic on Its Uaes Largo
Amount of New Equipment to b
Delivered During March on Orders
Placed Several Months Ago.
It has Just been announced that to pro
vide for the increased volume of traffic on
Rock Island line., a large amount of new
equipment will be delivered, during the
month of March, on order, placed several
months agu. It is indicative of the in
dustrial and commercial prosperity of
Rock Island states that, even before the
receipt of the new equipment, it has been
found necessary to place another large
order for delivery in the early summer.
The rolling stock which wilt be placed
in service tins month includes twenty new
pattern passenger cars from the Pullman
.hops, which embody so many comfort
contributing devices that they make a
distinct advance in day passenger equip-,
meut. This new departure will come a.
a surprise to the western traveling public.
Ten of the cars will be seventy-foot chair
cars, furnished with sixty-four twin re
clining chairs, seating as many people.
The interior finish is Mexkao mahogany;
decoration is olive green, with plain green
lines and the chairs are upholstered in
green. The cars arc equipped for lighting
both by Pin tech gas ana electricity and
are fitted with electric fans, for ventila
tion and cooling.
The other ten cars are seventy -foot ves
tibuled eoaches.with seating capacity for
eighty. The seats are upholstered in
maroon plush; otherwise the decoration,
are the same as in the chair cars. All the
cars have very large double plate glass
windows and are equipped with Pullman
standard six wheel trucks.
One new feature that will be introduced
in these cars is an improved draft gear
with 125.000 pounds spring capacity.
This is about six times the spring capac
ity ol the ordinary passenger coach. On
heavy trains, pulled by giant locomotives
this increased capacity of the draft gear
prevents disagreeable jars in starting and
stopping of trains.
An order is also in for over 4,000 freight
cars of various kinds, including 1,500 re
frigerator cars, 1,500 box cars, 500 fur
niture cars, 475 coal flats, 350 special
design dump cars, 250 convertible coal
ana ballast cars, and 25 drop bottom
stock cars.
The Rock Island will also receive, dur
ing March, 65 new locomotives of various
kinds, including twenty Pacific type pas
senger, ten Atlantic type passenger.flf teen
reight and twenty switch eneines. An
additional order fur fifty locomotives
win be placed in the near future, for de-
tvery in the summer.
Of the new motive power to be deliver
ed this month, six of the passenger en
gines are to be equipped with a new super
beating device, being the latest develop
ment in locomotive construction, to te
cum economy in the generation and effi
ciencj in the use ol Bteam. Briefly, the
device consists of return steam fines inside
the upper fire tubes leadinir from the fire
box. l he steam from the dome in passing
through this system is exposed to beat
which raises its temperature.evaporatinir
entrained water and the steam passes
perfectly dry to the cylinder.
In is new equipment, which is to be
added to from time to time, places the
nock island in the Ironterank among the
western railroads in the matter of trans
portation facilities. The foresight mani-
eeted in thus meetine, and adeauately
providing for, the exigencies of increased
traffic is characteristic of the Errojrressive
policy of the liock island management.

'harlotte News.
Anent the question of reducingrep-
resentation in the South, the Boston
Post makes some very pertinent re
marksremarks that hit the bull's
eye and ring the bell. The Post says:
"The llepubhcan Uubol tne city of.New
York now comes forward with a .pur to
the laggards in Congress who hesitate to
cut down the representation of those
Southern Ktates which prescribe educa
tional qualifications for voters. They say
that there was a plank in the Republican
platform promising to do this, and they
want 'immediate action.
"The New York Republicans point out
exactly where thecut is to be made. From
eleven of the Southern htates nineteen
members of Congress are to be taken. This
reduction ia based upon the number of il
literates, mainly colored person, of voting
age, who cannot read and write, and.
therefore, are disfranchised. The demand
is made practically along the line, of the i
bin introduced early in the prearat ses- .
siou. I
Will this scheme ever be carried out? :
No, indeed. It it were to be applied to
the South, it would have to be applied
equally to the North; and that never
would do.
"Right here in Massachusetts our suf
frage laws disfranchise for illiteracy as
many as are exclnded from the poll, in '
Tennesee for the same reason, half as
many again as in Arkansas, twice
as many as in Florida, and almost a
many in ixmisiana and .North Carolina.
If it is wicked down tbere.it 1. wicked
up here. And unless a Republican Con
gress is ready to wipe out one or two
Massachusetts uongreasinen, it wiU not
venture to rob the South of nineteen."
In other words, what is sauce for
the goo.e should be sauce for the
gander. But us a mat ter of f;ict,tou
much attention has lieen paid to tins
rot about reducing representation
from the South. Certain Republicans
who wanted toget on the baud wagon
have been shooting off their mouths,
for it is charity to say they have bet
ter sense. j
