Some of the best citizens of Texas and Missouri announce that they pro pose to stop the habit of "Toting" pistols in those States, even if they have to shoot the life out of men ad dicted to the vice. On the first Monday in July the County Hoards of Education appoln ted by the last session of the legisla ture, will take charge of matters in all the counties and will elect the Countv Superintendents of Educa tion. The Kansas City Journal points to to a fact that Is worth making note of in connection with Rider Hug gard's admonition of "back to the soil." The fact referred to is that while farmers compose 50 per cent of our population, they commit 2 per cent of ourcr!mes. The crowning of the new lmmor tals has already begun. John Aba uathy, the celebrated "wolf catcher' who showed President Roosevelt how it was done on the recent trip, has been made United States deputy marshall for Oklahoma, Snake kll lers and bear hunters are yet to re celve the laurels. And now comes a graft story from Atlanta that caps the climax. Ac cording to the Journal, "members of the cemetery committee got together fixed prices on cemetery lot's at Oak land Cemetery, and then parcelled out all of the most desirable lots among themselves and their friends without notice to the public." Geraldlne, the 4 year old daughter of Bernle Evans, residing hear Wash lngton, Indiana, had heard her fath er talking of Taft sitting on the lid She tried it on her 1-year old brother recently, sitting the child on the hot cookingstove. The mother, who was In the garden, was attracted by the child's screaming and found the baby so badly burned that he will die. College graduates should be very careful how they use their Latin. A correspondent of Statesville Land mark gives this story which is print ed as a warning: "A young man just from college called to see his best girl The servant girl asked him what name. He-said: Tell her amicus. She started to deliver the message, but stopped suddenly and Inquired, What kind of a cuss did you say?" The Charlotte Observer says, It is gratifying to see that the dignity of the editorial profession Is being con served in the moonshine deestrlct, The editor of The Journal, of North Wilksboro, and the editor of the Yad kin Ripple, Yradklnvllle, has each landed an a ppointment as a mail car Her ou a rural free delivery route These gentlemen should each be lnvl ted to read a paper at the next meet fng of the State Press Association in rebuttal of the axiom that republics are ungrateful. The Norfolk and Carolina Coast Railroad Company with a capital of $1",000,000 Is being formed by a syn dlcate headed by Rudolph Kleybolte and Company, of New York. The company will take over a half mil Hon acres of timber land In Eastern Carolina and run a railroad from Norfolk through Elizabeth City .Eden- ton, Bellhavenand through the coun ties of Beaufort, Pamlico, Craven and Carteret, with spurs Into Hyde and Tyrell. The Southern terminus will be at Beaufort. President H. B. Varner, of North Carolina Press Association, says that Ashevllie will make big preparations for the entertainment of the Triple State Press Associations which will meet jointly in Ashevllie, July 4, 5, 6, and 7. These editorial Associations are those from Yirginla, South Caro lina and North Carolina. The ad dress of welcome will be delivered by Gov. Glenn, in behalf of North Caro lina, and responses for South Caroli na and Virginia will be made by Gov ernors I ley ward and Montague. The French Broad Hustler remarks that the Concord Times and Char lotte Chronicle are engaged In some snake yarns that are calculated to shake the faith of the wisest saint. One of the snakes of which they speak was so poisonous that the tongue of a wagon bitten by It swelled to such an enormous size that it converted In to lumber for building purposes and thousands of feet, besides the poison ous slabs, were obtained. A few more such y a rns w 111 furnish lumber enough to connect the two villages and form a city. The Supreme Court delivers an opin ion in a novel case, but one of genera Importance, this being of a citizen of A shevllle against an electric company for cutting down a tree which Bhad ed his yard, despite his protest. The courts holds that the felling of the iree was not necessary ior tne pur poses of the city and that the latter had no right to allow It be felled for the benefit of a private corporation. If It had been for the better use of the street by the public It would have been proper. The owner la allowed his claim for $500 damages. The President has Issued an order prohibiting the employment of con vict labor on government works, The question of the employment of such labor was raised In connection with certain river and harbor im provements In Arkansas, the con tractor for which desired to employ a number ot State convicts under con tract with the State authorities. The officials of the War Department were almost unanimously onnnawl tn the plan and Judge Advocate Uenpra.1 Davis gave an opinion that It was contrary to the spirit II not the letter of the labor laws ot the United States. - . 1 . m v nnn nmimii . 1 iiiii.i m 1 m 11 11 The Southern Presbyterian uenei ai 1 Assembly at Forth worm, CA"D' Friday failed to take action on me question of Federation wim branches of the Presbyterian church. --- Senator Simmons called on Presi dent Roosevelt Friday aecompaniea by Mr. VV.

The Governor and Treasurer have been to New York and made settlements. Ex-Governor Russell and others no doubt wish to collect on all the spe cial tax honds, of which the total amount authorized by the carpet bag legislatures were something over 9.-. ftrto 000 of which over two thirds was actually Issued. The treasurer says that the state received for these really only $ 200 000. When Cupid's roll is called at Vas- anr r.his montn more man a score ui the 194 girls In the graduating class will answer "Guilty." There are those In the college wlio believe the number will reach 40 to 50. No pre vious class held so many engaged girls. The class dinner takes place every year on the evening of Com mencement Day. It is held at the college and only members of the class are present. A time honored custom of this dinner la the roll call. As the names are called In alphabetical or der each girl Is required to answer "Guilty" if she be engaged to be mar rled, and "Not guilty" If she be "heart whole and fancy free, The Louisburg Times Is talking sense hard, knock-down sense when it says that nearly every town contains persons who, It seems.would rather pull down than build up. And they do not stop at always arraying themselves "against" measures that are helpful to the town, but thay go farther and endeavor to do what they can Against something or some body. They are never found trying to help their fellow man along, but their only thought Is to "beat" some body. Such folks are worth very lit tle to themselves or the community in which they live. They are never happy themselves and It seems to be their great desire to make other folks miserable. NOT THE TAX BUT THE TRUST. In an address on "Tobacco" at the Southern Parliament, Col. John S. Cunningham, president of the North Carolina Tobacco Growers Associa tion, as reported by the Washington Post, "made an interesting address upon the subject of the tobacco in dustry in this country.sayingthat he desired to call attention to some of the needs of the tobacco growers of the sixteen tobacco-growing States. Since the war tax was placed on to bacco, he Bald, It has paid Into the United States Treasury nearly f4, 000,000,000, and has been the cause of breaking up and destroying factories In Richmond, Danvillle, and a large number of other Southern cities. Mr. Cunningham made an urgent appeal for a vigorous effort to be made to try to Induce Congress to remove what he considers a troublesome and unequitable tax." "Why, gentle men," he said, "the tax levied by England on the tobacco we ship to that country produces more revenue than all of the diamond and gold mines in South Africa." Col. Cunningham is mistaken In saying that it was the tax on tobac co that "destroyed tobacco factories in Richmond, Danville, and a large number of other Southern cities." It was the trust that destroyed these lactones, put down the price of the product of the farmers, and 1b respon sible for "destroying" the prosperity In the tobacco towns and driving many men into other lines of busi ness. The tax on tobacco was greatly reduced several years ago, but it benefitted nobody but the tobac co trust. The next vear the nrlce v Mr of tobacco went up and many attributed It to the reduction of the tax, but the following year when the price of tobacco dropped out It was seen that the tax reduction had noth ing to do with the Increased price which the trust put up In order to Induce another big crop. It is better and wiser to put coffee and sugar and other necessities on the free list than to remove the tax on whiskey and tobacco. No; It Is not the tax on tobacco that hurts farmers and destroys to bacco factories, but the tobacco trust. It Is the enemy that farmora and manufactures must fight. News and Observer. DEATH OF JUDGE TOURGEE, in the death of Albion W. Tourgee, which occurred last Sunday, In Bor ueaux, wnere ne was American con sul, there passes away one more of the few remaining republican leaders of reconstruction days In North Carolina. That he was a man of brains no one ever denied: but that was not the quality In his composi tion which gave him his chief noto riety In this State. So long as the carpet-bag days are remembered he will not be forgotten by North Caro linians. He was an author of note. Among the several novels he gave to the reading public tne one which gained him greatest reputation was "The Fool's Errand," and that did not lesson his unpopularity In this part ol the country. He was one of the leading spirits In the constltu tlonal convention of 1808, which Bad died the Canby constitution and ne gro suffrage on this state. He was rewarded for his political work by judgeship, but he held this for only one term. He was a native of Ohio and came to this state with the fed eral army. Wilmington Messenger.

It Is said that the jury on their ballot stooa three for murder In the first degree, three for acquittal and six for mur der in the second degree, anu yei. with nine out of twelve believing him guilty of murder they finally acquitt ed him of any crime! Pickens Is the latest to give the dis pensary a black-eye. The vote against It seems to have been overwhelming. One county after another is weary ing of rumors and suspicions that hang like a pall over the manage ment of that Institution.

Oneby one they have slipped the halter phpnrfnir the callows of what was justly due It. The ghost, however, will not down. The blood of a mur dered man goes unavenged and the white wings of Justice have been dragged In the mire. The great moral Institution has been weighed In the balance and In sober judgment a reunited people.un blased by passion, find It wanting. It has proved a blight. It has bred drunkards and thieves and murderers and has lowered State pride and State dignity. All that can be claim ed for It is the money-making proper ties; yet taxes have Increased and the State gone deeper In debt since Its Inauguration. It must go. It Is almost time to determine upon Its successor. Columbia State. The Inter-State agitation and the feeling resulting from it on account of the North Carolina monument at Appomattox must be oyer when The Roanoke World discussing another matter, can find It In its heart to say: When necessity demands it, North arolinlans will find a way to ac complish their purposes, with as lit tie fus and feathers' as possible When they want to do a great thing they just go and do it, and that ends It, and nobody kicks." That is very cleverly said. We all are debtors to our Roanoke contemporary. Char lotte Observer. It seems that the name of Samuel McCue is to be kept before the pub lic for Bome'tlme longer. The State of Virginia Is now moving to make his administrator pay the costs of his trial and hanging. McCue was hanged in February, and the State has presented a bill for fees and costs to the amount of 3,097.42. This seems to be an unusual proceeding, but as McCue was a wealthy m?n and carried a heavy Insurance which the State, by putting McCue to death was instrumental In securing for his heirs, the commonwealth no doubt argues tnat iff Is entitled to a share of the spoils. Charlotte Chronicle. OUR PEOPLE ABROAD. There are some among us who say that North Carolinians are a vain glorious folk, forever boasting of their State and Its people, while others among us say that we have no State pride and are always decrying the State and Its citizens says Charlotte Observer. Without stopping to controvert with either of these classes, we beg leave to observe that while it may be that no great number of North Carolinians have achieved distinction at home, a re markable number have gone away and won fame;and particularly have many ot our young men, have gone for education to the great unlversltes and colleges of their nativity. This Is markedly true of our young men who are graduating In the North this year. The Winston sentinel has an Interesting collection of the names of North Carolinians who are just now doing themselves and the State credit from home. Mr. Ernest Graves ranks second in the graduating class at theUnlted States Military Academy this year. At Harvard Mr. Chas.H. Johnson will represent candidates for the degree of doctor of philosophy having been selected by them for this purpose, while the faculty has selected Mr. W. A. Lambeth to deliver the oration at commencement In behalf of the graduate studies. Mr. William Kenneth Boyd will receive a degree at Columbia University this year having won high distinction In Eu ropean history. Messrs. J. R. Ham ilton and L. L. Hendren have taken unusually high stands at Columbia Uulversary, the one in history, the others In physics. As another exam ple of Intellectual superiority of a North Carolina boy. the Sentinel refers to the "splendid record among men from every part of the world," which Is being made by Mr. Horner Winston, one of the Rhodes scholars at Oxford. All North Carolinians It Is to be doubted If any other one State has carried off as many unlve sity and college honors this year the reference Is to the great universities and colleges only as has North Car olina. Without undue boastfulness or deprecation, either, It be may re marked, then, that there must -be something In the Intellectual fibre of our people. The Childrens Favo.ite.

The money was gold and sliver, Mexican dollars sixpences, etc. There are various re ports as to the amount, some say several hundred dollars.

After the assault Foster was taken to the Watts Hospital. There he was attended by Dr. N. M. Johnson and after the wound was dressed Dr. Johnson said that his skull was frac tured and that he was suffering from a symptom that looked like concus sion ot the brain. He did not think that the wound would of necessity prove fatal but he did not know what'would be the results. There Is no clue as to who committed the as sault, other than five negroes assault ed two white men,' charging them with throwing rocks and when this charge was denied they themselves threw several rocks. It Is stated that there were two of the negroes who threw stones and that one of the rocks thrown by these men struck Foster over the right eye and this broke the skull and caused his serious condition.
