: 1 1 J. v. - i , THE MONTGOMERIAN. W; F. Hunsucker, ---Editor. PUBLISHED WEEKLY TROY, NORTH CAROLINA. ONE DOLLAR PER YEAR. Ent eral at the FottolBce at Troy, N. 0., as eecond-clasa matter Thursday, January 23. 1508. 1. 1 s Hon. J. R. Blair left for Raleigh Monday evening to attend an ex tra session of the General As - sembly of North Carolina fori the purpose of amending the. Rate Law so as to permit the' railroads ; to charge- 21-2 cents per mile. Last winter the Leg islature had a time of it in Ra leigh passing the 2 1-4 cent rate. Some of the members wanted to make it 2 cents. It will be remembered that the Senate passed the 2 1-2 cent rate last winter bat the House would not agree, though we believe a majority of the people believe it to be best -to name the higher Tate. Hind-sight is always best However, though we have paid rather dear for the whistle, the conflict has probably done good, in that the railroads ' will have more respect for the people, and the people more respect for the rights of the railroads. Those who are looking for something good to say about Senator Blair can recall his attitude upon the rate act. We hope the rate bill as agreed upon will be promptly passed and followed by immedi ate adjournment No other matter, should come before the session; prohibition is coming fast enough and should be let alone. i cl ICC!) w&3a lra'1- road matter, eo it is with the present session, - v. .. -, .

The Prohibition folks are here in large a quantity. The State Anti- Saloon league established it a headquarters here yesterday. and the trains brought in dele- gates from every quarter. This fa. m. a large and enthusiastic convention was held at the Ac ademy of music, and address delivered by Governor Glenn and others. Hon. Ihos. J. Jri, could not get hereon account of sickness, and the Counsel and wisdom of that Jgrand old man was a feature .that was lacking, much to the ' disappointment of the Prohibition forces. At this early part of the session it is quite dithcult to surmise What the assembly will do, either as to railroad rates, or Prohibi tion, or other measures that may present themselves. However, the uwimittee on Regulation of Publo service Cor- I orations, held a meeting this afternoon and have gone into the wont in earnest, mat some thing Till be done along this line is .evident, but what, well that is another question, 'It is also (hard- to tell, and nobody knows what the sentiment of the lawmakers is on State Prohibi tion.

The court convened on Mon day morning, the presiding judge being the Hon. Council, who took his place at about 10 o'clock. Both his Honor and the Solicitor were on the sick lLt on Sunday, and in charging the grand jury, the judge began with an apoiogy for his inability on that account, to address them at the usual lensthY In the comse of his re marks he directed their attention to the advisability of providing the county with a better court house saying truly that wooden buildings were out of date. A fine building as evidence of the prosperity of the community way be regarded in the light of a profitable advertising invest ment, drawing the attention of visitors to the resourceable end and the progressive spirit of the county. Hi3 Honor rightly pointed out that the actual bur den jon the tax-payers would be - . too small to bo felc by anyone, , and that the growing wealth of the county would come in to pay the cost in a short time' At the commencement of the ' proceedings Messrs. Blair and fry had to ask for the continu " ation of the cases in which they . TVere retained, both these gentle men being compelled to go to the opening of the Legislature.

It is not necessary to give the chapter and versd, but look for' it. In brief it in this: "Spend some of your even ings at home with your wife and children. If you have an amiable gentle wife, surely, your home must be a pleasant one, but ii' from increasing cares or other reasoas, she has grown fretful or sullen, who' knows but a little more attention or kindness on your part might do a great Ideal towards the return of the amia bility you so much admired in her girlhood.

But, alas, you soon grew tired of the same room evening after evening, the same easy chair, and the saddest of all, weary of the society of your wife imroatient of the res- irainia oi nome, longing lor a change.

But for the bachelor's plan, living in j neat little cottage with h:s mot'.ier, all was peace and happiness, until his mother was taken fro:n him, and the poor failow.. d!d - not know what to do.
