lina not attendants upon
the Lvdia Languish school, may
now use the notarial seal until
the Supreme court either goes
back on its present chief justice
in his 1912 decision, or concurs in
h's views today.
By 54 to 48, the house this
mornina: passed a bill which a
few days ago went through like
lubricated lightning.
Tne rol'-:all showed the Re
publicans pretty well together on
the bill and in the house it is ob
servable generally that the Re
publicans are readier to concede
feministic demands. The party
has not (ffhially declared for
suffrage, but it is every day be
ing whispered here that many
Republican leaders are commit
ted.
Senators Hobgood and Weaver
this morning presented their
primary bill. It is statewide and
covers everv county in North
Carolina. It does not touch pre
cinct elections and leaves to gen
tlemen in the west that comfort
if any exists in this slight excep
tion.
With thi3 it is expected that
the will open. The bill has
not come to the house, but Vann
o* Union, one of the clearest
headed of the youngsters in the
body, has had his bill in the
house several days and the body
is ready to begin talking. The
Hobgood-Weaver bill provides
the secret ballot It is said to be
q lite broad. 5
Representative Roberts this
morning also presented a bill that
will put expert witnesses in
charge of the courts if the act
passes.
Mr. Roberts provides m the bill
of 100 words or thereabouts, that
experts shall be summoned by
the presiding judge and that the
judge will give 10 days' notice
of such summoning. The court
will determine the pay for such
tAßtiimfoy and it will in
the bill of costs.
The St. Paul's Academy Property.
It will be interesting to the
people'of Hiclrory to know what
is to b 3 done with the St. Paul's
Academy and grounds which
comprises over 13 acres ot the
highest grounds and the finest
site in Hickory. Just before and
at the time Col. M. E. Thornton
bought it, the grounds were be
ing laid off intu lots and a street
mad 3 through North and South
to connect with the city streets.
C >lonel Thornton is as yet un
dec ded what use he will make
of the big building; whether to
make it into a hotel or utilize it
for a tuberculosis sanitorium, or
to sell the whole of it.
But he feels that it is n«t yet
the time for him to sell it all. He
will sell the lots on the west side
of the street that is partially con
structed through the whole lot
north and south. He is going to
sell them at private sale and la
-ler at auction those not previous
sold.
The building, which was con
structed by the Catholics under
immediate supervision, contains
the best and finest lumber to be
had at that time and there is
none as good now.
Resolutions of Respect and Sympathy
Since God who doeth all things
well has removed from the
Church Militant to the Church
Triumphant our ex-superinten
dent of l>ng service, Dr. J. T.
Johnson:
Resolved therefore, that we
iiumb'y submit to the will of God
who doth make no mistakes. The
whole school recognized in him
an example of right living—a
kind father—an excellent neigh
bor. a faithful church worker,
and a benevolent man to the poor
and needy, indeed, a man of God
has been taken away from us,
nor do we mourn, for we feel
suro he has his reward for his
faithful service during a long
life.
Resolved that these resolutions
be spread upon the Sunday
School Minutes of the church,
and a cojyto each f our city
weeklies, the Christian Advo
,s • and a copy to the family of
deceased.

4THE HICKORY DEMOCRAT
the Reformed
Night Asks for
More Stringent Liquor Laws
At a mass-meeting called by
the Ministerial Association of
Hickory to consider some means
of makine the VVebo-Kenyon liq
uor bill effective, held in the Re
formed Church Monday night
and attended by about 500 Hick
ory citizens, the following reso- J
lutions were adopted by a rising
vote:
"Whereas, T1 e people of North j
Carolina in 1908 declared for the i
prohibition of the liq'ior traffic by j
a vote of about 45,000 majority;
and,
"Whereas, The legislature of
the state in 1911 enacted a law
condemning the "Near-Beer"
shops and again in 1913 passed
che "Search and Seizure Act,"
both of which were intended to
strengthen the prohibition law of
1903, and to make it effective;
and,
"Whereas, Notwithstanding
the above mentioned laws of
North Carolina, liquor continues
to be shipped into our state in
defiance of the expressed will of
the majority of our people, cor
rupting our boys and debauching
our men; therefore, De it,
"Resolved, That we, citizens
of Hickory and community, in
general Mass Meeting assembled,
do hereby protest against the
shipping of liquor into our town
and do hereby pledge ourselves
to use every honest effort to make
the law effective both by refus
ing to order any liquor for beve
rage purposes for ourselves and
to endeavor to bring to justice
those who do violate the law; be
it further,
"Resolved, That we hereby
pray the General Assembly ot
North Carolina, now in session at
Raleigh to enact such a law as
will make the Webb bill effective
and that we request Senator C.
A. Jonas and Representative
I Yates Killiati to support and vote
1 for such temperance measures as
may be submitted to the legisla
tur«*and -which wli! make tfe
shipping of liquor into our state
unlawful and impossible.
"Resolved, That a copy of
these resolutions be furnished
Hon. C. A. Jonasand Hon. Yates
K llian,our representatives in the
legislature, and a copy be sent to
our county papers and also a copy
sent to the And-Sajpon League
at Raleigh."
The meetine was opened with
a Scripture Lesson by Rev. W, R.
Bradshaw. followed by prayer by
Rev. J. G. Garth and a song,
"The Fight is On,*' by the audi
ence.
Rev. J. D. Harte made the
opening address. His subject was
"The Curse of the Jug Business.''
In a few words he summarized
the fight against the liquor busi
ness in this state and elaborated
on the evils of the trade. He
asked if we can keep out bad
cattle, why can we not keep out
bad liquor.
He was followed by Rev. J. G.
Garth spoke on "Are Our Boys
Safe." He referred to the time
when we had open saloon c , then
to the near-beer and so on down
to the blind-'iger. Mr. Garth
said he had gone to the Express
office and found from the records
that 550 packages of whisky had
been delivered from that place
during the period of time from
December 18 to January 1. iHe
said our boys under state-wide
prohibition are growing safer and
safer but that we needed to make
them absolutely safe by passing
a law that would absolutely pro
hibit.
Dr. J. L Murphy then sp>ke
bii fly and called upon Mr. W.
A. Self to present a legal opinion
in the matter.
Mr. Self said, he did not feel
qualified to make the matter clear
as it was not even clear to the
court. L : quor, he claimed, was
recognized as having certain leg
itimate uses, which entitled it to
be considered as property to be
dealt in for profit, This means
that liquor is an article of com
merce, and must be so considered
so long as it maintains this legal
recognition. The sovereign states
created the central government,
and then surrendered to this cen
tral government the pover to
regulate commerce. B/ such
surrender this power passes from
. the hands of the individual states,
and for that reason they cannot
continue to exercise a right they
have delegated to that central
government. Our own Supreme
Court has never said, in so many
(words, what interpretation can
be put upon the Webb-Kenyon
I bill. The Webb bill declares that
'the shipment of liquor from one
'state to a dry state is prohibited,
1 but did not provide m penalty
.
HICKORY, N. C., THURSDAY, JANUARY 28, 1915
for such an offense. The Webb
act i) virtually the reenactment
of tie Wilson act (1890), and
does not say that liquor cannot
be shipped into a dry state for
individual consumption. The
speaker then made some good
Suggestions in the way of amend
ments to the present law, one of
which was the reduction of the
quantity permitted in the hands
of the consumer, and wound up
by declaring that if the General
Assembly would enact a law mak
ing it a misdemeanor for any
person to drink liquor, he felt
satisfied the Supreme Court
would decide it a valid Jaw.
Dr. J. H. Shuford, in giving a
medical opinion of the subject,
said many people had a mistaken
idea about the necessity of whis
ky as a drug in the medical pro
fession. Tnis idea has long since
been dissipated, and it is the cor
census of opinion of the leading
physcians and surgeons that the
profession can not only get along
without it, but that the patients
are far better without it, and
asking to be excused for a per
sonal reference said that he
never used it in his practice, and
was perfectly satisfied with the
results he got without its use.
Recorder C. W. Eagby said that
he had gone oyer his docket and
discovered that out of the 672
cases he had tried, he found that
187 of these cases were those ar
rested for public drunks and 25
for selling liquor. This makes
212 cases in alVor 31.7 per cent
that resulted directly from the
use of liquor. He also reported
52 cases indirectly traceable to
liquor, which would bring the
percentage of liquor cases to 38 5.
M«»yor C. H. Geitner then
spoke of the liquor question from
an executive standpoint, He
said the use of liquor was one of
the worst things any city ha J to
contend witb, and was the source
of much trouble to the city offi
cers.

Strange Things in Russia.
Kinston, Jan. 24. —M. Gold
stein, a well known local jeweler,
has a letter from Russia telling
of the most miraculous thing that
has happened in the old country
since the great war began. A
three-weeks'-old infant was left
in the charge of a small girl
while its mother went to market
in one of the Russian cities. Tne
mother was a war widow, and the
child presumably was but the
mouthpiece for its spirit father
when it bold'y sat 'up in bed and
remarked to the girl, "I want my
mother; where is she'" The girl,
badly frightened, called in a
neighbor. The child immediately
engaged the neighbor in convei
sation. "Send for the rabbi, I
want to make a statement." it is
said, as it sat upright against a
Dillow and twiddled its pink toes
thoughtfully. The rabbi was sent
for, and upon arrival was dumb
founded at being informed by the
baby that ' This war is a terrib'e
thing. It Will continue growing
worse, until Roshannoh (the
Jjwish fall festiva ). There wi 1
oe no peace in Russia before
then," Others had in the mean
time gathered at the news of the
infant's strange endowment with
speech, and the prophecy it was
making, the letter declares, was
accepted by all as an assertion
by a person in another world.
Tne stranye t part of it all. He
and other local Hebrews agree
that it was a miracle. The baby,
the letter said without mention
ing its sex. died as soon as it had
delivered its message to the rabbi,

~ 4 Traps for Young People."
Rev. J. D, Harte will continue
his series of sermons on "Traps
for Young People". attheFiist
Baptist Church next Sunday
evening. His subject for that
service will be ''Betting and
Gambling."
Last Sunday evening, despite
the very bad weather, the church
was packed to hear the message
on "The Evils of the Pool-room"
and it was generally regarded as
one of the most helpful services
held in this town in many months.
All are i .vited to come Sunday
night.
Rev. J. D. Harte preached a
very impressive sermon on the
evils of the pool room at the First
Bagtist Church Sunday night to
a crowded house who gave their
undivided attention for 35 min
utes. Rev. Harte was not at all
abusive in his words, but stated
facts as they exist tiday, ne
will preach again Sunday on
some other eyils.
HARRY K. THAW IS
BACK N THE TOMBS
After Seven Years The Sime
Prison Walls Hold The Prey
of Jerome.
New York, Jan. 24.—Harry K.
Thaw is again in the Tombs.
Brought here this morning from
Boston, his only stop over on the
way frcm New Hampshire, he
was locked up in the prison fiom
which he was transferred almost 1
seven years ago to the State Asy
lum for the criminal insane at
Matteawan, after his acquittal of
the murder of Stanford White on 1
the ground of insanity.
It is expected that Thaw will
be arraigned tomorrow to plead
to the indicitment charging con
spiracy. based on his sensational
escape from Matteawin 17
months ago, 1
When the train drew into the
station, Thaw greeted the news
paper men generally, but refused 1
to discuss his plans. William
Trayers Jerome, special counsel
for the State, and Deputy Attor
ney General Kennedy, arrived on
the same train. 
Thaw and his guard went to a
hotel for breakfast and tfcen the
prisoner was taken to the Tombs.
Later he attended religous ser- >
vices in the prison chapel. 1
Efforts by Thaw's counsel to ■
see their client were fruitless.
They were told that if they wish
ed to consult with him they must
get an order from a Supreme
Court Justice. Abel I. Smith,
one of Thaw's attorneys, said to
night:
"Even though bail should be
fixed for Thaw, it is possible we
will make no effort to furnish it.
The case has been left entirely in
the hands of his attorneys, John
B. Stanchfield, Morgan J. O'Brien
and myself. Just what oiir next
step will be we have not decid
ed."
Thaw's mother, who is in this
city, refused to say anything re
garding her son's case and Je
rome and Kennedy likewise de
clined to discuss the matter.

The Catawba Creamery Co.,
of this city, won first prize on
creamery butter, the same being
a $30.00 silver cup, at the meet
ing of the State Live Stock As
sociation at Statesville last week.
Mr. W. J. Shuford, of this city,
was there, and boosted the
creamery interests, along with
other things.
It might be of interest to state
that according to the Statesyille
Landmark. 75,000 pounds of but
ter fat was shipped from Iredell
county cream routes to the oream
ery here during the past year.
The patrons of the routes receiv
ed for this amount of butter fat
$21,500, and it is scientifically
figured that in the shipping of
this cream from the Iredell farms
only $72 worth of plant food was
taken away, this amount being
necessary to produce that much
butter fat. ,

Five times as much wheat and
six times as much corn were ex

more than 12 fold; and, general
ly, the exDorts of ''breadstuffs"
which includes practically all the

An Astounding Situation.

teen hundred millions of the in
habitants of the globe, eight hun
dred are involved in this
war. That 800,000,000 includes
1 eight-tenths of the Chri tians of
| the world. Of those who are not
! fighting, among Christians, are
! only the United States, the South
American republics, Spain and as
yet Portugal and Italy, and
among non-Christian people, the
