THE OXFORD PUBIilC LEDGER. ffttliPAY. JULY 14. 1905. ' " i 1 P 1 "A SECRET." ' One great secret of youth and beauty for the young woman or the mother is the proper understanding of her womanly sys tem and well-being. Every woman, young or old, should know herself and. her phys ; i ob .it-. A trnod wav to arrive at this knowledge is to get a good doctor book, such, for instance, as the "People s Common Sense Medical Adviser," by K. V. Pierce, M.

OWNER AND EDITOR. Terms: $ I a vesr in advance. De voted to home Interests. Large and established circulation. Qood re turns to advertisers LET THE STATE OFFICIALS COME TO THE RESCUE. A correspondent In Southern Gran ville, from whose previous letter we quoted two weeks ago, relative to Illicit distilling- In that section writes us again along the same line and call attention to the fact that the people have lost respect for the federal law regarding this evil because the federal officers will not do their duty, but "wink" at violations of the law when It will pay them to do this. But our correspondent adds: "As the State has been so good as to give us all the laws necessary to prohibit this great evil, let It not be said of the state officers that they do not care. We hope they will consider carefully their responsibilities and the awfulnes8 of the consequences If they are not faithfully met." Let our solicitor and other state olliclals be informed of conditions there and, when informed, let them be expected to do their full duty. Iet our people bestir themselves and re port the guilty parties. Then let the court deal with them. For himself the editor will say that he will do anything in his power to rid the good people of this community of such a bitghtlug- curse. The following letter was received a few days ago from a lady at North side as to Illicit distilleries: I guess you will be surprised to re ceive a letter from a woman upon such a subject as this, but when the men will not attend to such business I think It is right for the women to take it in hand. The liquor business around and in the neighborhood of Xorthslde, has gotten to be a perfect nuisance to the women (if not to the men ) of the neighborhood, and more than one woman has said she was ;oIiig- to report. I think from what I haFe heard and can see there must be at least two or three blockade stills some where very near, by h r the men can walk out any day or even ing after supper and get back in a very snort while all filled up with whiskey and have thier gallon jugs with them seemlng-ly right fresh from the still. Some of the men are ae tually neglecting tiielr crops lying around sleeplngdrlnklng and cursing. I for one would be glad If such pro ceedlngs could be stopped and will do all In my power to help break it up. )f course that is not a woman's business.but when I see things going- like they are now I cannot help from speaking. I have sit In my room on the Sabbath evening and have seen three men riding- in one buggy, two of them drunk and the other one trying- to hold them in. What will our country come to If such as this is not stopped? I have been told the negroes buy It by the runlet full and hide It around their houses and sell it out to the white men. I write you this, thinking perhaps you will lend us a helping hand in someway. Iam a woman and don't know how to proceed about such business. Very Respectfully MRS. . From the following It will be seen that the people of Brassfield Town ship are moving to break up the il licit stills: At drove Hill last Sunday the cause of temperence was presented to the people by the Superintendent E. S. Jenkins. Those who signed a pledge to do all they could to break up the blockading In this section were the following: Mr. and Mrs.E. S. Jenklns.A. B. Jenkins, John S. and J. A. Moss, J. C. Peace. Miss Allle Jenkins and B. W. Allen. We are few In number but let us remember we are In the right. "We are more than two. We know that the pray ers and works of God's people ayail much.

IMMIGRATION. Immigration Is a subject that seems to be occupying a great deal of attention In North Carolina at the present time. The newspapers are discussing the question vigorously In the hope of reaching the best settle ment of this Important problem for the State. The matter grows more serious each year and the complaints of farmers particularly and others who are largely dependent uDon hired labor have induced our Sena tors In Congress and our Governor to look carefully into the matter, and they are recommending In speeches and otherwise the Importation of de sirable Immigrants from Europe. One of the first things to be con sidered by a thrifty farmer from the old world will be the condition of the public r ads In the neighborhood in which he will settle. In France, Germany, England and many parts of Italy the roads are of such char acter that the products of the farm and garden can be easily and profit ably carried to market every day In the year. It may not W at all sur prising, therefore, if the sections of North Carolfna where the highways are already Improved secure the larger number of the better class of immigrants we are now endeavoring to induce to come into the State. Bent her Double. l l knew no one, for four weeks, when I was sick with typhoid and kidney trouble," writes Mrs. Annie Hunter, of Pittsburg, Pa., "and when I got better, although I had one of the best doctors I could eet, I was bent double, and had to rest my hands on my knees when I walked. From -ihis terible affliction I was rescued by Electric Bitter , wnicn restored my health and strength, ana now I can walk as straight as ever. They are simply wonderful."

He is a great menace to society and Is much more to he dreaded than the highwayman When a man is held up on the road and commanded -to hand over his money or any other valuables that he may have on his person he na one chance In ten to successfully de- feud himself, or even if he loses every thing he has with him nobody suffer except himself and perhaps a few people who may be dependent upon him for support. When one man kills another permanent In ju ry Is done only to the murdered and his family But when a bank official steals mon ev he is robbing the public while they sleep and they have no possible chance to protect themselves against him. Think of the sufff ring and mis ery that has been caused in the world on account of bank defalcations. Thousands of widows and orphans have been deprived of their all through the dishonesty of those who held public trust; men who have Dlaced their hard earned savings in konta )mvA waked un on a single UCIU morniog to find that they have been pauperized by the dishonesty of those in whose keeping their money was entrusted. So we say that the de faulter is one of the worst criminals with which society has to deal. So say the Charlotte News in comment ing on the Dewey trial at Newbern American Ginseng In China. The United States consuls at Hang chow and Amoy, China, have recently taken up the subject of ginseng in the market there with particular attention to the status of the American product. The top variety of all ginseng is the wild or natural root found in Manchu ria and retails for ?107 to $135 per one and one-third ounces. A variety much resembling the wild root is cul tlvated in northern China and sells at 4 per one and one-third ounces. A so called "foreign ginseng" coming from the United States sells for 65 to 70 cents per one and one-third ounces and Is said to be medicinally inferior to the Manchurlan product. Two varieties of ginseng known to the trade are said to come from Korea One of these has much the appearance of the Manchurlan root, but is said to lack in certain essentials and sells for $2 per one and one-third ounces. A cultivated variety sells at 30 to 35 cents, but is little in demand. It Is said that superstition is largely re sponsible for the absurdly high price of the Manchurlan root, for the Chi nese are too poor to pay fancy prices without some show of reason for the extravagance. Chinese druggists admit that the dif ference between the American cultivat ed product and the Manchurlan root is mostly one of Chinese Imagination. Ginseng roots which are knotted and gnarled, which have a grotesque or abnormal appearance, which are pe culiar in color or have an unusual quality of any sort are generally more highly esteemed than those which are smooth, reg'jlr.r and normal. Cultiva tion tends ta produce regular, normal roots. For a ginseng root which re sembles some animal, especially some fabulous animal, the Chinese will pay a very high price. Consul Anderson, at Amoy, reports that modern medical methods and the use of foreign medicines Introduced into China will doubtless cause a de cline in the use of ginseng. He says that there la no discrimination against the American product as such, but the American root simply lacks the qual ities desired by the Chinese users. American producers are advised that they might realize more for their gin seng if they were careful to assort it according to Chinese standards. Prac tically all the ginseng Imported from America is handled by Hongkong deal ers, who sort it according to market demands and make a big profit In handling It. Thinking After School. The schools are out, and graduates by the hundreds of thousands are thinking over their opportunities and prospects for the future. Some ended their education in the high and gram mar schools and others have finished at college. Both classes will prob ably find themselves at loss which way to turn for occupation. The main thing Is to "get busy" at something. Education provides the "open door" to success, but the individual must take chances in the throng which has already passed In, and not be too greedy for a front seat at the first bound. In an old poem two careers typical for the present, as well as of the past, were presented in homely rhyme. One school graduate "shingled the barn and mended the fence," then landed in the governor's chair. His more bril liant brother developed Into an orator and a politician and made an early failure. There is always humble work to do, and the doing of It well or ill is a test of one's tools and capacity for using them. Education provides the tools; skill and application must come from the scholar. The main track mileage of the rail ways now operated in the United States would circle the earth along the equator eight and one-half times. says Leslie's Weekly. Their revenue In 1904 $2,000.000,000 would pay the interest bearing debt of this coun try twice over and leave a vast sur plus. There are 1,500,000 men In the employ "of these roads, more than the armies of both sides mustered in the field at any one time during the civil war. Army and navy war games are often looked upon as "child's play" and a waste of energy and cash. But "child's play" is the necessary forerunner of man's work. Soldiers and sailors must make fools of themselves before they learn to do the trick that wins. Recently 500 chartered colleges, more or less, la thla country handed out with lavish hands honorary scholastic degrees, and yet they overlooked lots of people whose friends think should have some big D's tacked on to their names. NORTH STATE HAPPENINGS. The penitentiary directors have raised the price of convict labor from 75 cents to $1 25 a day. Prof. Zebulcn V. Judd, now of the University of Florida, has been elect ed Supn iutendentof schools of Wake county, to succeed Rev. W. G. Clem ents. Tbe pententiary has sold half of its crop of 1,300 bales of cotton grown on the farm near Weldon. The COO bales brought D to 10 cents, and the board la greatly pleased at Its good judgment in holding on. The order made by the commls missioners of Forsythe county Instructing-the sheriff to arrange for a public execution of the wife mur derer has been revoked. It has been discovered thatthere's a law against public hangings. The State crop report says crops a re now clean and well cultivated and farm work up to date. Cotton is about normal In condition, though plants are small In certain sections. Blooming freely. There Is lice In many counties. Tobacco cutting has begun In the east and south and the crop Is a good one. Kale'gh liquor dealers and their friends haye begun active work en deavoring to secure enough signa tures to petition for another election next October on the liquor question, bar rooms agalnstdlspensary ."which petition must be signed by a third of a'l r"gift red voters. The liquor men have been quietly at work sometime to this end. Several of them have paid rent on buildings they once used as saloons. The News and Observer says: The dispensary profits for the 3 months past, less the amount held for con ducting the business, were turned over to City Clerk Wilson for a divis ion. The check for the quarter's profits was $14,000. Of this $5,600 goes to Raleigh, $4,200 to the county school fund and $4,200 to the county road fund. In the first quarter of 1905 the check was for $12,500, the present quarter showing an Increase of $1,500. A very peculiar Incident occurred Monday at Thurman.a small village south of Newbern. Mr. J. W. Carr.a farmer In that section, reports that from a cloud hanging over his neigh borhood, without any warning what ever, a single stroke of lightning shot forth striking an employee named Henry .Tarman and a mule, killing them both Instantly, after which the cloud Immediately disappeared with out a drop of water falling to the earth. In tearing down a chimney to an old log house on the Helton place, 11 miles from Morganton, a few days ago, the workmen discovered the bones of an Infant under the stone hearth and also found three $5 gold pieces of the date of 1844. The old house has been standing more than a hundred years and a great number of families have occupied it during that time. - Tradition TOjo-tbot $1, 400 lu srold is secreted about this old place, and it Is more than probable that It will be found when the house Is torn away, which will be done at an early date. Gastonla News: The usual sight of a woman digging a grave was seen at the colored cemetery near the Old Mill Friday afternoon. Acolored child died and the parents were too poor to provide anything- towards the burial. The town furnished the coffin and the men In that section of town were all at work, or those who were not at work are the class who wear overalls and rub clay over their clothes to prevent being taken up for vagrancy, and the women took the tools In haud and proceeded to bury the child. Gastonla News. Durham will hear with the deepest sorrow of the death of Rev. Thad L. Troy which occurred at Liberty. A good man, a pure man has gone to the reward of the righteous. A crown of glory awaits him. In the death of this good man the poor of Dur ham and nearly everyone in our city has lost a friend Indeed. He lived for others, and his entire life has been so devoted. Not only in Durham, but in many other places, hundreds will rise up and bless his name. We deeply mourn his loss and in the grief we feel our pen la powerless to express our feelings and the sweetness of a life so pure and unselfish. Durham Sun. A serious, if not fatal shooting oc curred at Kelly's mill, near Klnston, Saturday night a week ago. Mr. George Norrls, who was out In the yard, called to a servant woman to bring his gun that he might shoot an owl. The woman In turning the corner of the house struck the ham mer of the gun against the house and discharged the gun, the entire load of shot, cut lead and slugs taking ef fect in Mrs. Norrls' side. Mrs. Norrls held an 8-months-old . Infant in her arms, which was uninjured, though two fingers of the hand that held the child were cut off by the shot. The unfortunate woman's hip joint is shattered and she Is terribly wound ed, though the physicians say she may possibly recover. - Buy it Now, Now is the time to buy Chamberlains Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.

It Is very evident from the very large number of arriving guests at the Mecklenburg for the past week that the summer season will eclipse all other seasons by far; while It Is the most earnest purpose of the pres ent management since It Is Its own now to make the summer of 1005 a most glorious one Indeed. The Meck lenburg Is mostcentrally located and most convenient to the larger cities of Virginia and North Carolina, such as Richmond. Petersburg, Lyn.-h-burg, Danville and Norfolk, Va., Ral eigh, Durham, N.

Way Down in Alaska: With the whole State stirred up over the sensational developments In the Gattls Kllgo trial, with two men In iall charged with trying to In fluence jurymen In favor of the de fendant; with men In the church and out of the church discussing the case, and the secular papers devoting col umns of front page to the testimony, etc., we naturally looked for a clear stand from the two Methodist papers of the State. In order that any little prejudice we might have either way might be banished by a strong, firm stand by these papers, with a clean cut statement of the situation and a demand that the r'ght should pre vail. But instead one had along ed itorial on "'Norway and Sweeden," and the other nad a sort or an ex- plantory defense of Dr. Kllgo, claim ing that the facts proved him Inno cent.
