Octroy" loaa than' two months

. the Anti Saloon League was
Seized in Raleigh. Bat this short
e h9 been used and used well;
Jf9 peopla of the State, who are
nosed to the saloon, re joioe. that
re is on foot a movement to edu-
S-ey realize that the hour has struck
4hig State for the temperance
farce? to Set together in a united
4itrork.gpeir and wage a victorious
warfare against the great enemy to
lociety the licensed saloon. As a
destryer of value, both in manhood
money, it is without a parallel.
tlQ saloon is a creature of our law
our law i a creature of our
lelves. The Anti Saloon League
ka to show the people that the
galoon has no right to exist. This
gestention will be based upon the
gject of the saloon on the home, the
jjorch and business world. The
esgue makes no personal fight
igiinst saloon keepers. The fight is
higher than this, it is a battle for a
principle of right, regardless of men.
Dr. J. B. Hawthorne says of this
lime movement in Virginia :
"Our movement is a moral one.
We are not a political party. We
have no fellowship with the men
who would make a convenience of
our sacred cause in gratifying their
political ambitions. We need no
political party to accomplish our
purposes."
The League has been organized in
33 States of the Union. In North
Carolina it akes the name League
because it is expensive and the fight
till be to fit North Carolina cou
pons and not to dove-tail into any
er organization.
The State organization is being
sref ally perf eoted. Artioles 2 and
J of our Constitution are as follows :
Purpose. Its purpose is the abol
iihment of the liquor saloon by any
cd all proper means ; the creation
ud crystalization of a righteous
pablio sentiment, and the proper en
forcement of all laws against the
liquor traffi.ee.
Xature. The League pledges it-
lelf to maintain a strictly inter-de-
a?rninational and non-partisan atti-

&e article in the April MoClure's
kt to be read bv everv American
zea. This is the account, by
cola Steffens, of "The Over
bed President." The conditions
er which the President is forced
tranaict his share of the manage
t of the action are suoh as no
fcess man at the head of a great
jj&te enterprise would for a mo
think of tolerating. Many
3Urs every working day are wasted
interruptions of the most vexa
y trivial nature, by questions
visitors that should properly
teSnld muh more effeotuaily be
er5 ?ed by 8bordinates. It is li.
tit? 6 that th8 President has
4Ue?. ? break off consideration or
tit&n n of maters of the most
ortanco to the nation for a
Vim on lom8 matter that in a
ftwi?e81 noern would get no

THE HEW DUAL ALLIANCE.
The most dramatic incident in re
cent international politics is the con
clusion and publication of a treaty
of offensive and defensive allianoe
between Great Britain and Japan.;
It removes Great Britain from the
position of "splendid isolation"
which she has so ling occupied, and
makes her the ally, not of any Euro
pean power, but of an Asiatic gov
ernment which only recently has
been aooorded a place among civili
zed nations.
The treaty serves formal notioe
upon the rest of the world that the j
two powers concerned have no de
sign upon the independence of the
territory of China or Korea, and
that they will oppose aggression by
other powers. In particular, the
treaty is a warning to Russia to keep
its promises as to Manchuria and to
stop orowding Korea. Behind the
faltering and vacillating Chinese
court and the feeble Emperor of
Korea it places, for the defense of
their independence and territorial
integrity, the resources of two pow
ers whose combined fleets and armies
are more than a match for any force
which is likely to be arrayed against
them in the far East. Suoh an alli
anoe, itself pledged to pacific ends,
is the best guarantee .of peace, be
cause it so enhances the perils of
war as to compel any power to think
twice before going counter to it.
The United States has peoulia rea
sons to think well of the new alii
ance, which, is formed to carry
out the very policy to whioh
this oountry ' is committed. When
Secretary Hay "defined that policy,
In his letter to- the powers in July,
1900, he enumerated identically the
same same ends which are men
tioned in the preamble to the new
treaty: the seouring of peace; the
preservation of the 'Independence
and the territorial integrity of
China ; and the maintenance of the
prinoiple of the "open door" equal
and impartial trade for all nations
with all parts of the Chinese Empire.
The new treaty extends the three
principles to Korea and pledges both
powers to mam tain them.
It is unsafe to make predictions
regarding the course of affairs in a
country oT so many explosive possi
bilities as China; but the new alli
anoe will certainly tend to restriot
the area of any internal disturanoes
which may rise, and to minimize the
ohanoes of aggression from without.
Youh's Companion.
The most considerable contribu
tion to the April Review of Reviews
is Mr. Carl Snyder's artiole on
"American Captains of Industry.' "
Reoognizing the impossibility of
making an exhaustive and exaot list
of the living great industri&l leaders
who have given America its pre
eminence in trade and oommerce
over all other countries of the world,
Mr Snyder has seleoted as fairly
typioal the one hundred or more
leaders in scienoe, invention, trans
portation, and trade who were
gathered in New York to lunch with
Prince Henry of Prussia, and rapidly
reviews these men, grouped with a
view to giving the special field in
which eaoh 11 Captain" has been
notable, and his speoial significance
in it. Not the least interesting part
of the artiole are the photographs of
no less than seventy-five of these
builders of American industry.
