year as to-'fully' Justify the assertion
that . the . quantity , if manufacturers'
v material. Imported in he fiscal year
ended June JO, 1909, exceeded that of
any earlier flscal year, ,
It does not follow, however, that this
highest record of quantity of manufac
' turers" materials Imported shows the
highest record, as to values. On the
contrary,' tlu? figures 'qf the Bureau of
Statistics show that the value-of crude
-materials Imported for use In manufac-
r turlhg in the. flBcal year i909 was U
-million dollars below the value of this
group of imports in 1907; and manufac
tures for further use In manufacturing
were 62 million dollars below' the fig
ures Of 1907.
. This. fall In value of manufacturers
.-materials Imported, In theface of. an
increase in quantity, Is due of course to
! lower i prices In 1909 than In 1907. v For
- instance, the Importations of pig cop-
per In 1909, while exceeding those, of

Thai, reduction' In ImDort Dilees of

illustrated by a comparison of the im

present - time. The average jjmporl
price of . pig copper, for. example. In

The table which follows shows the
principle articles for use In manufac
turing imported in the flscal year 1909,
compared with the figures of 1907, the
high record "year In value of Imports
for manufacturing,' showing quantities
and values. It will be noted that in
nearly all the articles the quantities
Imported in 1909 exceeding , those of
1907, while in a large proportion of the
cases-the value are less than those of
1907, although the quantities are great-
poor devils have appealed to the su
perior court. Justices of the peace
have bound others over to the super
or court,, where a Jury of twelve froe
helders, good and lawful men of the
county say the poor devils were not
guilty. ' The evidence and the law
convince the one man court tbe poor
devil Is guilty, but the unpopularity
of the law and public opinion convince
tbe twelve men Jury that it is not un
lawful for one man to furnish, an
other with liquor when he wants It.
' This same, disposition on the part
of Juries is not confined to Wake
county, it Is the same all over the
state.
But, Boss, you can put It down In
your note book that the near beer
$200 purse winner will keep , Bud
a tell busier than he ever was in ga:
nisheelng. time while he was in the
sheriff's office. .The near beer ordi

they would locate the. orphanage. On
