There is re ported a feelinr of confidence in Pittsburjr tliat the iron and feel business for KMIS will !. of j saiis factory volume. This confidence is wai ranted by the fact that orders for future delivery are pouring in that will keep the blast furnaces in blast, and the roll ing mills working up to their u-.ij.il capacity. Most of the orders that have re cently been booked in the iron and steel industries are of home and not foreign origin, though in delivery the product will be widely distributed, among the items being 10.UOO tons of structural steel for San Frniri--i. The Fnited States Steej Corpnr.it ion is to build a new plant at (Jary, lud., and this enterprise is to le pii-hed immediately. The general business situation is undoubtedly wearing a more cheer ful aspect than it presented thirty lays ago. Money is resuming its normal functions, instead of .being kept under lock, and this, of course) means the promotion of business in all the various channels. The crops are growingaud the rail roads, as usual, have all the traffic which they can handle. The indus trial outlook la brightening, and is sure to grow better. The Special Investigation Craze. New Item Journal. Through city, county, State, and national (Jovernment there has gradually developed a perfect mania for special investigation. Some mu nicipal affairsappear tangled. There are committees regularly appointed for everything concerning the city, but the uldermen will think it neces sary to go outside, and appoint a committee. The county matters Ih come apparently involved. There is n. regularattorney,drawinga8al irv. whether he does anything or not. 15ut another attorney is needed to look into the matter involved. The State (Jovernment has numerous matters coming up for its notice. There are always investigations call ing for special attention, and it is al ways found necessary to employ some committee of esteemed citizens, at er diem expense and salary, or from two to six lawyers, eminent in their profession, and if equally promi ent, politically, so much the better. That the wise counsellors receive liWral pay of course follows. They are not given the work except at first class wages. They are not supposed to accept such investigation work, if the combination of legal wise and politically conspicuous, were not their personal qualifications. In na tional affairs, the demand for special committees and lawyers is without end. This excessive investigation zeal has grown to such an extent, that its magnitude can only be esitmated by a calm sitting down and looking over the various newspapers, and note how in almost every depart ment of municipality and State and nation, there has grown up a duplica tion of special investigators, who to great extent perform work that legitimately belongs to officials reg ularly elected and drawing pay to perform the specific work, so gener ously given out to special committees. The expense of all this is enormous. Tins, as does all expenses, falls upon tax-payers. If the regular officials, who fill city and State department positions, are unreliable, why were they elected? There is nothing new to demand all this special investiga tion, now so much carried on. It is a fungus growth, developed bv degrees, from the desire of those in power to help their own positions, or aid friends. In our prosperous conditions, tax-payers become indif ferent to the gradual mushroom growth of expenses, that takes their money and leaves nothing as an equivalent. This investigation is u craze that calls for a bait, for it is an excessive and unprofitable waste of i i.ix-paj-ers money. A Real Wonderland.

At the present time the effective . r L' 1 i : 1 . - r . A r 'r i great as that of ail tbe other great pow ers of Europe combined; that is to say, of France, (Jerrnany, Russia, Italy, and Austria. The question of tbe future is whether the United States will finally anpire to rival England as a naval po wer. At tbe present time tbe effectfve war-hip tounage of the American navy is 011, filG tons, being nearly doable that of Japan, largely in excess of that of Ger many and only inferior among the navies of the world to that of England. Bnt the tonnage of he British navy amonnts to the enormous figure of 1, ;.'!:$,nr, tons. To rival that vast fleet would fake many years of construction and an almost incalculable treasore. And in tbe meantime England is building ew ssips at a mnch faster rate than we are. ft also bas tbe advantage of being able to build a battleship and put it in commission iu less than half the time th.it it requires an American shipyard to build one, and for less money. During the last fiscal year no less than nine new battleships of the first-class 15,000 and 16.000 tons have been added to the Fnited States navy, besides four armored cruisers, iucreasingenormously our naval strength. Two more battleships and two more armored cruisers will oon go into commission, and six other battle ships, two armored cruisers and eight small craft are under construction. Of the battleships now building two, the Ielavcore and North Dakota, are to be 20,000""tons displacement, with a speed of 21 knots. They will be as powerful as the vessels of tbe Dreadnaugbt type in tbe British navy, and, in respect to the arrangement of the turretsandguns, siierior to them. The recommendation of Secretary Metcalf is for an expenditure of if 09.270, 000 for construction to lie authorized at this session of congress. This recom mendation includes four "great battle ships of tbe Delaware tyie, to cost $ 9, 500,000 each; four scout cruisers, to cost 2."00.000 each and nhoiir. nrher other vessels. In the eager Competition of nations in battleship building the Uni ted States cannot long maintain the sec ond place, the secretary declares, unless liberal expeditures for more ships are authorized now so as to keep pace with the rapid construction by Germany and France. France is now btritding 10 bat tleships of 14,805 and 18,350 tons dia- iiliicement. 4- nrmnrwl eniiuora -.f 1 -.ft I ' - ' " 1 - . 17 v and 13,644 tons and a fleet of destroyers uiiu suumannes. uermany ouilds each year two battleships, those now build ing beincr of 19.000 tons- 1 nrninml cruiser' 2 protected cruisers, 12 destroy ers and a number of submarines.

Norfolk ' Virginian-Pilot; G"' In a recent report to the Agricul tural Department tbe American Con sul trt Bordeaux, France, furnishes some interesting facts and figures rel ative to peanutToil and its maufac ture in that country. Peanut or arachide oil, as it is cailed, when well clarified and fresh, is preferred, he says, to the best olive oil for table use in many parts of France, its sale in Bordeaux exceeding that of any other oil and almost equalling that of all others combined. In additon to being an excellent table oil, pala table, nutritiousjiealthful and cheap er than olive oil. it is employed al most exclusively in the manufacture of high class compound lard. As showing the maguitude of the indus try and the extent of the product's use, the report states that in Bor deaux alone the average annual value of tbe output of peanut or arachide oil exceeds two million dol lars, fifty thousand tons of peanuts being used in its manufacture. These peanuts are brought from the French possessions in Africa. the nnw. cess of extraction being the, same as maKing cotton seed oil. Further more, there is not a particle of waste in the manufacture, the residum be ing pressed into cakes which serve as an excellent and nutritions fond for cattle. This report is especially interesting to the people of this section and of the Eastern Carolinas, where peanut growing is one of the chief agricul tural pursuits. In fact, in this belt and in Tennessee are grown more peanuts thau in all the rest of the world combined, the annnal value of the crop ranging from eight to ten millions of dollars. If the conver sion of tbe product into oil can be made profitable elsewhere, certainly there is room for development of the industry in these States.

" :"-' Weyer before have we hod an mnnli to be thankful for. V Never before wnsi - the fntnrp an bright. 7 ., ; ISever before was the averaire of in- telligence so bigrh. The workers are at wnrl- Pntrpp forest, farm and mine are calling for laborers. The cost of living bas in creased, but Wflo-eR hnvo mnra thnn kept pace the savings banks attest ii. i nere is no such thing in America as "the problem of the unemployed."

A b.inlr depends absolutely on one thing.and that is protecting his depositors.aud American bankers, of all men, now know it. It is airood wnrkirnr nnlier- to have faithin your banker in times oi aouot consult him.

I've been doing business with banks for thirtv-five years and never have I been ripped up the back by a banker. Be frank with your banker and he will lie frank and generous with you. Ail or which is tbe advice of a man who has never failed nor bad a fire. and who while not miernhv with money has all he needa, even if not all he wants. We are lpurnmw h mv to preserve our health, how to keep our tempers, how to laujrh and how to give and take especially take. Honesty as a business asset is every- wuere recognized. Mutuality, recip rocity and co-oneration am wnrdn that loom large. We believe in education, growth, development, evolution. We read, we study, we discuss, we think.

He says: "For five years I have sought re lief for indigestion, stomach trouble and dyspepsia, spending nearly all my wages with- doctors and obtaining bo results. I had dull pains across my back, rad latin sr to the Khonldant I had splitting headaches, which nothing seemea to cure, mere was a gnawing and rumbling in my stomach and. bowels. I was .troubled with Tertiga and dizziness. - and at times - almost overcome by drowsiness. - "I felt tired and worn ont all 'th time, my sleep wag not refreshing, and I Would get UD in the mnmfnsr feeling as weanr as when I went to bed. My appetite was variable raven ous at times, then aeain nauseated at the Bight of food. Sometimes my face was pale, at other times flashed. " I was constipated and bilious, and had catarrhal affection in nose and throat, which caused me to hawk and snit a great deal, especially in the morning.

Melville Dorsey. . A Deserving Man. Forced to Do Time on the afi e3 " Chaingang is Now a Good Citizen. Wadesboro Ansonian. 'Iti Wadesboro there lives a man who deserves credit for the record he has been making during the past year, most of which he spent in a con vict's stripes. About a year ago, troubled by an indictment which hung over him, he began to consider tbeworthles8nes8 of tbe life he was liv ing. His early life was amid surround ings not at all rondifcive to correct moral training and he grew to man hood, became a husband and father; half of his three score nnd ten years lived out with a reputation for noth ing in particular but drinking bouts and rowdyism. Never having been taught the great .noral principles which dominate all successful lives, and unable to read and thus inform himself, he was at a disari vantHtro But in a drunken row, and smarting ! nnaer a fancied injury, he used a fy low-creature quite badlv, be stopped to think, and then it was that the lest part of his nature, dormant so long, asserted itself and he began to view life from its serious side and to measure hispast with its possibilities. He joined a church with a resolve to live a life worth while. The time came on for hU trial and, contrary to his own desires, his lawyer fought the case instead of submitting and asking mercy of the court. The re sult was that he had to don. the stripes for half a year and do service on the roads, where his former asso ciates mig-ht daily behold his dis grace. Though the prosecoting wit ness in the case was as much the ag gressor, and deserved as much pun ishment, he went to pay the law's demands without a murmur. Dur iug his confinement he learned to read his Bible and discovered about it a charm which held bimiu itsepell. His wife and children refused to. de sert him in his deep disgrace, but came to Visit and cheer him while he did his time. Perfectly submissive to his keepers, be served ont hi time and returned to the anxious embrace of those who always looked beyond the stripes and saw the manhotxl which others failed to discover, and today lie is happy in hia home and, with his wife's encouragement and tbe laughter of bis children to cheer him, be is "making good" whatever the past holds against him. Again we say, considering his opportuni ties or rather a lack of them, he de serves some credit. ' Badly Hlxed Up. Abraham Brown, of Wintrtoa, X.
