BOTH SENATORS, PRITCHARD AND BUT
LER, FIGHTING THE INCREASE
OF TOBACCO TAX.
If they Vote Like they Talk, there it Yet a
Faint Hope that the Tax Will
Remain i it if.
A dinpatch ot Wednesday from
Washington, I). C, says: liy the
HCtion of the Itepublican caucus
yesterday the Kepublican benatora
agreed to vote as one man for the
amendments mado to the tar ill hill
hy the Finance committee. This
means that tho amendment incrcas
ing the tax on tobacco from ti to 8
cents per pound will be adopted
Tho tobacco amendment, however,
will not prevail without a desperate
fijjlit, and there is a small chance for
a victory for tho opposition of the
tax I want tosay right here that it
is in tho oowcr of any Uvpublican
Senator to get in the tarilT bill most
cverytlnngliiB people want. 1 heard
today, by way of illustration, that
Senator 1 erkins, ot California, when
he learned that fruits would bo on
tho free list, stated to tho Finance
committee that California Innts
must and should Im protected. That
unites the committee gave what the
people of California wanted in tho
way of protection he would vote
against the bill. Thus singly and
alone Senator Perkins got what he
went after. Iho tobacco schedule,
that is tho internal revenue feature
of if, will not come before the Senate
for a week or ten days. This will
give ample time to the growers to
get up petitions to send to the Sen
ate protesting against the increased
tax. Tho more petitions protesting
against the tax tiie more show there
will be for defeating it.
Senator I'utler said to-day that
he will speak against the amend
ment increasing the tobacco tax and
will leave no stone unturned to beat
it. If, by iihburtering, he can save
the farmers of North Carolina from
this additional burden he will do so.
He said that when it came to the
interests of tho people in his State
he would think long and loud be
fore submiiting to have his hands
tied by any caucus action. In his
opinion a man's tirst duty is to his
State and to his party afterwards.
Senator I'utler is not alone in this
opinion. It was by putting such
opinion into practice that Senator
Jones, of Nevada, was enabled to
get everything in the tsritt' bill that
his little State requested. Aud while
New England will kick against the
tax on hides, nevertheless they will
vote for it, becauso that was the
price they paid to get the tarill bill
out of the Finance committee room
and into the Senate. Not all the
Senators have the courage of Jones
and I'utler.
Judge Simonton'j Decision.
The South Carolina Dispensary
Law has been bitterly and relentless
ly fought. It has survived many
unfavorable decisions and merciless
news paperdenunciatiou ; and is now
a part of tho constitution of South
Carolina. Last week J udge Simon
ton, who has an unfortunate way of
always getting into the worse light
as a judge, handed down a decision
that practically frustrates the Dis
pensary System. But the State will
appeal ; and months may yet pass
before wo know whether he is right
or wrong, lint the Dispensary
speaks tor itself. It is a less evil.
It is better than wide open saloons.
Control is better than license. If a
State is going into the liquor butit-
uet-s at all, if it is going to share the
prolits and the responsibility
th.rot.gh license, it oiiL'ht to go one
step further and own and control
the whole business. We are not
prepared to accept this ; but when it
comes to choosing between tlie
license system and the Dispensary
system, wo prefer the latter. God
deliver us from such a dilemma. If
the Christian people of North Caio-
lina would do their duty, we would
have no such question to deal with.
We can wipe the saloon and the dis
perihary oil the face of the earth. If
we can we ought. If we ought and
do not, wu ein. Itibical Ilccorder.

Too Much Talking.
It is one of our proudest boasts
that ours is a land of freo speech
Un all subjects, theoretical or prac
tical, every ono has tho full right to
think as ho must, and to speak what
ho thinks, with no limitations save
thoso imposed by tho rules of de
cency. In expressing himself about
men and measures ho may bo cen
sorious or laudatory, satirical or
obsequious, as his temper may in
cli no.
It may not bo claimed that we
Americans are at all inclined to bo
sparing of this great privilege. Wo
are, in truth, a nation of speakers
It is expected that a speech shall bo
a leading feature of every occasion
where multitudes assemble for any
purpose. Tho man and of lato
days, the woman who cannot speak
fluently and readily upon short
notice, is at a great disadvantage
Words are what are wanted. Words
arranged in smooth, easy graceful
sentences. It is not at all material
that these should bo expressive of
any great, earnest, forceful thoughts.
Indeed, the man is apt to be rated as
the more popular orator who tan
use a great many fine words with
out many ideas. It is all very well
it he can staid his hearers away
laughing, but ho runs tho risk of
expending his labor in vain if he
sends them away thinking.
Were every man and woman who
speaks in this country during a
twelvemonth to give expression to
one earnest, forceful, overmastering
truth, there would bo a mighty im
pulse given to the world's forward
movements. It may bo admittod
without any reflection upon those
who speak that this is not tho case.
Some, as wo have said, utter words
full of sound, in which there is little
sense. Others say what may bo
good, but is no longer new. Tho
bulk ot a year s oratory is so largely
made up of these two kinds that it
leaves very little to be added to tho
world s fund of truth.
But we should judge amiss if wo
should pronounce all this speaking
superfluous. Conditions are ever
changing. What was said a few
years ago, and said appropriately,
has to be repeated with some mod
ifications. So the speaker's occu
pation is likely to continue. Hut
those who act in the role should re
member that what it was well to
say once, it may not ikj well to re
peat. ashmgton Post.
A War Incident.
Amongst the brave soldiers pro
duced by the late war thero was none
braver or more gallant than Major
ii. LSelo, a balem man, and now
the editor and owner of The Gal
veston and Dallas News. In the
same command to which Major Ilelo
belonged there was a tall, iiiagnih-
:ent young captain wi;h tho eye of
an eagle and (lowing hair that gave
the true leonine appearance to the
massive head. He was Captain
Cousins and his coolness and bravery
in battlo was proverbial in the army.
for some reason or other Captain
Cousins considered himself badly
treated by Major Uelo, and in his
fiery and impetuous manner re
marked to the major that his rank
alone protected him. Major Uelo
unbuckled his sword and laying it
aside informed tho captain that he
asked not that of rank, which he
could do for himself. A meeting
was instantly arranged and the com
batants faced each othei at a few
paces with army rides. At tho tirst
fire Major Uelo was un'njured while
his bullet grazed Captain Cousins'
neck, drawing tho blood. While
the guns were being reloaded a long
rolling fire was heard on the right.
t was an attack on the confederate
lines. Captain Cousins listened for
moment and an angelic smile
wreathed his face and a twinkle of
humor came into his eye as ho turned
to his antagonist and said : "Major
don't you think thero are enough
Yankees to shoot without practicing
on each other " Major Uelo grasped
us hand and it is unnecessary tosay
that ended tho duel. The two men
became fast friends and that friend
ship endures to this day. After the
war Captain Cousins married a rich
widow and now has a large printing
establishment just out o! Richmond,
w tulo Major ielo went to lexasand
has grown rich and famous, as the
editor and owner of the greatest pa
pers in the Lone Star State. lu-

Tho American wheat that was to

Porting it. Meanw hile the Hindoos
ave iiocn starving in the regular
course, and by the time our contri
bution reaches them, it it ever does,
tho survivors will be about ready to
harvest their new crop.
It would seem almost tirno for
some knowledgo ot the fact that
modern famines are due, not to lack
of food in the atllicted country, but
to lack of money among t he sufferers,
to penetrate tho heads of the charit
ably inclined, but some of our peo
ple seem as tar as ever trom master
ing it. While millions were starving
in Ireland, grain was going out of
the couutry. There was no time at
which an Irishman with money in
his pocket con Id not have lived in
comfort ; but, ignoring this fact, we
generously sent a shipload of pro via
ions to be distributed with great
labor and waste among the people
whom we could have relieved to bet
ter advantago by a draft in a letter.
The same experience was repeated a
tew years ago at tho time of the
Russian famine. The suggestion
that a cable transfer of money would
help the starving Russians more
than a cargo of grain was held to
brand its author as a monster desti
tute of human sympathy.
Jn the present case, the iiritieh
government has been coping with
the ludian famine by means ot relief
works. Hundreds ot thousands of
men and women havo been employ
ed in building irrigation ditches and
reservoirs. Wlut has been trio ob
ject of that to bring in shiploads of
pruvimons irom aoroaa I io, outio
give the destitute the means ot
sharing in the provisions that are al
ready in the country. 1 ho man with
money has no trouble in living in
India now, any more than he would
have had in Russia in 1802, or in
reland fifty years ago.
Of course, relief sent by cable
transfer, although it would beouick-
erand more effective than relief sent
in the form of a tangible shipload of
eatables, with the Star-Spangled
5anner waving over it, has the dis
advantage of not being as spectacu
lar, it sometimes looks as if the
good people who are moved to noble
deeds by the spectacle of suffering
in distant lands were less concerned
about the welfare of the sufferers
than about the proper stage effects
for their own generosity. But evjn
from that point of view a ship that
gets stuck in the wings as the cur
tain rises cannot be called a glitter
ing dramatic success. The unpre
tending cable transfer would seem
distinctly preferable. New York

Five Hundred Fishermen Drowned.
Victoria, B. C, June 9. Meagre
particulars were brought by the Em
press of Japan of a disaster which
befell the libliermen ot the Chusan
archipelago, off the coast of Chiua.
On May tith, when all, or at leaet
most ot the fishing boats were out
on tho fishing banks, a terrible gale
sprang up. Of the several hundred
boats out at the time, very few re
turned and it is estimated that come
five hundred men lost their lives.
The storm was one of those sudden
ones for which the coast ot China is
noted and the fishermen had no
chance to seek shelter. Their life
boats were smashed to atoms and
they were left to tight a hopeless
battle with the merciless waves.
The storm swept over the entire
Archipelago, which extends across
the mouth of IJanehow bay, on the
eastern coast of China. Several
large junks were lost, in which
scores perished.

THAT WAS THE SUBJECT OF AN ABLE
ADDRESS BY PRESIDENT
CRAWFORD.
Some Practical Suggestion! that Should
Prove Beneficial to Every
Young Man,
A lare audience was jrcuent at
the Agticultrirsl and Mechanical
College IttPt night to hear tho ad
dress of President Crawford, of tho
celebrated Williamson Technical
School, Philadelphia.
It wns a thoughtful, practical,
carefully prepared address, deliv
ered in a simple but pleasant man
ner. W hat it Jacked in the bombas'
and striving for oratorical effect
usual on such occasions it more thsn
made up in wise suggestion, kindly
sdvice 8d thoughtful discussion of
the problems of lil'o confronting
young men leaving college to enter
upon the struggle for existence in
tho world.
He began by laying that the pur
poses ot the A. and M. College and
the school over which he himself
presided Williamson Technical
School were very much alike, and
the methods need were very similar.
tie said it would be lotitid that the
young men who go to these schools
ana get a technical education do the
best for themselves; that it is only
when the head and tho hand are
trained together that the man bo
comes equal to the highest possi
bilities in him. In mechanic arts,
as in literary work, you must begin
witti the beginning and be pro
gressive, this is the instructional
method.
Then there is the constructive
method of teaching in mechanical
education. This, he Slid, has a
commercial value. You work for
i u r pose. But like the other
method it must be progressive. Its
object is to make skilled workmen
and at the same time instill into the
student scientific knowledge.
' 1' ree education is the harmonious
development of all the faculties of
the mind. hen you put a boy to
school, put the whole boy there.
"lhe best exposition of technical
education I havo ever met with is
the book recently iss.sued by your
Department of Agriculture a book
entitled "North Carolina and lu
Re-sources." It is the hist publica
tion of the kind 1 have ever seen.
It is tho clearest and best exposi
tion of tho objects and ends of this
institution and all institutions of its
kind. It ought to be in tho hinds
of every boy in the land and a
model lor every State of the Tnion.
"lhere cannot be too many col
leges like this. in the State there
ought to be ten times as many as
there are or this one ought to be
ten times as large as it is.
"How often one meets with young
men lresh from some college where
they have spent many years and
much money preparing themselves
toe life's struggle, only to find them
selves unfitted for any calling in
life, learning has not beeu wed
ded to doing. They have to begin
over again for tl.ey can do
nothing. They drop into unre
munerative clerkships, and the re
sult is that a life is spoiled and what
might have been a brilliant career
is blighted. Why not teach two
things at once the thing and how
to do it? Schools do too little in
directing young people in the choice
of and preparation for an occupa
tion. As a rule tho young man or
young womati is utterly unfitted to
clioise an occupation. The choice
is too often directed by fancy and
seldom by reason. Johnnie is anxi
ous to become a lawyer, doctor,
school teacher or clerk, but he can't
bear the thought ot being a farmer
or mechanic.
"There ate those-w ho can afford
education s an aesthetic accom
plishment, but they are compara
tively few, and o4 of (he great race
of human progress and human civil
i.a'ion. The poor man of to-day
may become the Capitalist of to rnor
row. And, you, young gentlemen,
are fitting yourselves lit re to be
come not only the capitalists of
your State, but its moat valuable
