The anti-cigarette law of Iowa has
declared unconstitutional by
United States Circuit Judge Walter
saanDorn. xne law went into effect
on January last and prohibited ab
solutely the manufacture Or sale of
cigarettes in the State or their im-
. portation into the State.
: :- The supreme court of Michigan at
Lansing has decided that the State
LegisIatiTV has no right to interfere
with the management of the Univer
versity of Michigan. The Legis
lature passed an act at its last ses
sion directing the regents to estab
lish a homeopathic department of the
University in' Detroit The regents
refused to comply on the ground that
the act was unconstitutional.
- Major General Nelson A. Miles,
1 - General O. O. Howard, and Rev, A.
- . A, Myers, president of the Harrow
;- 'School,' at Cumberland Gap, Tenn.,
.'have inaugurated a movement to
.vLrect a larg military and education
al institution at Harrogate, Tenn.,
on me site ol the' late Four beasons
.Hotel. The name proposed for the
'. institution is the "Lincoln Acad
1 emy.V commemorative of President
Lincoln. ,
Under the habitual criminal law
' of Connecticut a man who has been
; convicted of a crime three times
. shall, at the expiration of his third
, sentence, be ' deemed incorrigible,
and may be detained in prison for
twenty-five years. The first appli-
. cation of the law has been made in
;i the case of George A. Minor, who is
now detained in the Wethersfield
prison.

1 There are indications of co-opera-
- tion among the truck farmers of
i Florida. As a means of encouraging
truck-growing along their lines in
that State the Plant system has called
a meeting to consult those who wish
to cultivate vegetables, to the end
. that the people and the railroads
i. may mutually benefit each other in
producing and marketing vegetable
p crops. The proposition is made by
; the Plant svstem that the growers
.. shall meet and form themselves int3
an association in order that they
; iaybe more - effectually ; benefited,
land . it offers ' to furnish the best
, seeds that can be secured of various
crops that can.be grown successfully
in that section at cost, without any
charges for transportation.
In the preliminary or) practice
trial the cruiser .Brooklyn, off Bos

closely approximating ' twenty one

official figures which Could haye any
impartial, or valuable s; bearing.

cers aboard and also by members of
the government trial board and cal

: Why is it that the Ralelgli Branch
of the Southern is lending no money
in . Raleigh or in - North
Carolina? Simply for , the : pro
tection of j ner investors. s ? Ask
any one-rlawyer or oitien if ANY
building and loan ' association can
lend money SAFELY in North Caro
lina on the building and loan plan.
As bur Supreme Court has- decided
several times that they CANNOT
the answer is no. As long as a bor
rower pays building and loan associa
tions are all right. When he, stops
then trouble begins. , Building and
loan associations who lend money in
North Carolina are taking risks that
no SAFE business man will take.
You can promise a borrower that he
will have to make only so many
payments and he is safe. You can
promise an investor that- he will
only make so many payments and
his stock will be, matured, and the
promise amounts to nothing. How
can any building and loan associa
tion GUARANTEE maturity when
they are depending on their earn
ings, and this is all they' have. A
building and loan association who
lends money in North Carolina un
der our laws will just take 15 years
to mature their stock.
THE SOUTHERN
does not RISE lending their mem
bers money. It is loaned only in
those States where the courts up
hold our contracts. It is carefully
placed as fast as paid in and every
cent is safely loaned on city real es
tate, first mortgage (churches, school
houses, livery stables and hotels
positively not taken); so you see how
careful they are. I would like to
accommodate our friends by lending
them all they want, but it can't
SAFELY be done in North Carolina.
The Raleigh Branch of the Southern
is now only an investment branch.
If she were to lend money here it
would be to the interest of every
member to withdraw his money.
Why? Simply that it would take
about fifteen years to mature stock
mark the prediction, this is just
what those who lend at 6 per cent
and in North Carolina Will find) the
Southern confidently expects to ma
ture stock between the eighth and
ninth year, judging from their earn
ings in the past and the outlook for
the future. So those who have stock
in the Southern can rest assured
chat no RISE will be taken in lend
ing out their money, but it will be
safely invested. Those who want to
borrow can't buy stock in the South
ern in North Carolina. They will
have to look up some association
who cannot safely place their funds.
To the clerk, laborer, mechanic and
business man who has any surplus
to spare (if a business man can place
all he has successfully in his busi
ness he had better use' it, as he can
make as'much as any building and
loan association) the Raleigh Branch
of the Southern is the association
you are looking for and McDonald
will be glad to give you any infor
mation desired. Remember, after
making six monthly payments,
should you be unfortunate, you can
withdraw every red cent you have
paid in and come back for nothing
when you get able to make your
payments . again. You can . find
nothing fairer or squarer than this.
We don't lend you a PART of your I
money, but you can get all of your
money. Don't join ANY building
and loan association until you have
carefully examined into same. Ask
for PROFITS paid those who with
drew. Get their names and you
will find in nearly every instance
that the Raleigh Branch of the
Southern was the one who paid the
profit I am tolerably well up In
balding and loan and will cheer
fully give any information desired
as to the Southern or any other as
sociation. '
I KNOW
that no building and loan associa
tion is superior to the Southern and
few are equal , It is just and honest
with the unfortunate . member who
has to withdraw aad.can with a
clear conscience try to get him back
and nine times out of tof Iocs, How
is 'it ; with i those association who
only pay back a part, of , what has
been paid in?; ,Why, the poor fellow.
feels like he has been .robbed, and
justly so, , for these slick-tongued
fellows could not sell, their stuff , if
they did . not . MISREPRESENT
same. Show me a nun in Raleigh
who has been a member of the South
ern and withdrawn and l will
GUARANTEE that he will recom
mend it to you'tov''i'.';?4i,5,ai4.

Our banking room has been enlarged and refurnished.
A NEW
which is entirely fire proof and burglar proof,' has been added. The doors
controlled by combination, automatic and time locks, built by the Miller Safe
and Iron Works, of Baltimore, and superintended by Mr. J. M. Mossmao, of
New York, an expert in burglar proof work. In this vault we have placed
SAFE DEPOSIT BOXES
of the very latest design, the convenience of which can not be appreciated un
til they are seen, and all are invited to see them.
The renter of the box has the key, and no ono can gain access to the
contents of the box without the presence of the renter, and if he should lose
his key, the finder could not gain access to the box, the contents of which can
.be known only to the renter.. There is ample room in the boxes for the filing
of deeds, valuable papers, wills, bonds, stocks, etc., and perfect security is
obtained for very moderate cost.
Convenient and private rooms have been provided for the exclusive use
of customers in the examination of papers, cutting coupons, etc.
We have an excellent vault in addition to this fine burglar proof vault
for the storage of boxes and packages.
Everyone interested in beautiful workmanship and most delicate mecbanJJ
