D puty . Sheriff Nolan of Haywood
county brought to the penitentiary Jno,
Smiley, a white man who wassentenced
to two years for manslaughter, having
on Christmas day killed a white man
by" the name of Caldwell. Governor
Glenn1 is in receipt of a letter request
ing his good offices with the prison au
thorities in behalf of road improvement
in Duplin county. '? This movement is
starting up all over the eastern part of
the State and the people are awakened
to the tact that good roads are one of
the chief essentials of a sections growth
and pi ogress.
s Mr. George C. Upchurch, the oldest
citizen of Wake county, and - during
his lifetime a resident of Raleigh, pass
ed his ninety-fourth birth day Wednes
day last and is dead at his old home on
Wilmington street He is survived by a
large family of children and grand
children. " ' '
A meetinng will be held at Mantoe,
February 21, at which occasion repre
sentatives from the national govern
ment and members of the North Caro
Una Board of Geological Survey will
co-operate in staking of the boundaries
of the open way for the shad ami other
fish coming from the Atlantic Ocean
into and through Albemarle Sound to
their spawning grounds. This co-oper
ation also means that the department
at Washington will assist the State in
maintenance .and protection. By this
means the industries so named will be
very malerily increased.
Acting State Geologist recently at
tended a meeting of the citizens of
Chapel Hill township to discuss the
question of better public roads in the
township. A number of calls nave
been made recently upon membra, of
the geological staff to meet county
commissioners in different parts of the
State, and it is the wish of the depart
ment to assist such people as to give
information, regarding macadamized
roads and as as to how best to raise
bonds for such construction. t
The report oh Building and Ornamen
tal Stones for the State is now ready
to be sent to the State printers. This
report discusses the. various deposits
and their economic importance. It
shows the State is well stored with
stones of the granitic type, and it is
probably better supplied than any other
Appalachian State south of New Eng-
luucf. Attention is also called to undt
veloped deposits that are so well worth
quarrying, and reference is made to
the beautiful samples displayed at the
St Louis Exposition.
In order to effectually distribute the
publications of the Board of Geological
Survey they will be placed in the hands
of those looking for investments, there
will be active co-operation with boards
of trade, chambers of commerce and
other like organizations, by whom they
will be filed for immediate reference
and information. To this end extra
copies will be available to those who
may desire them. The board also do
sires to come into and keep in a closer
ouch with all such bodies through
out the State for their mutual further
ance. This will apply to the varied re
sources of the State and will take up
any line correspondence with inquirers
as to mineral deposits, water power,
etc. It is expected that in this way
the great stores of information collect
ed by the board can be disseminated as
a fund of general assistance to the peo
ple of North Carolina. This will also
have special bearing as to inducing
people from other places or States to
consider the undeveloped rowers that
are bound up with the Stato. '

(Special Correspondence.) -,
Raleigh, Feby 19. A deep-spirited
interest pervades all mention here of
the suit of stockholder Hill to annul the
lease of the Atlantic & North Carolina
railroad, which was heard by Judge B,
F. Lone without jury, and will be de
cided by him, with an early announce
ment 'A man in Raleigh, prominent in
the affairs of the State, though, not a
State officer, in speaking to your corres
Dondent said: "The material noint is,
the stockholders are uneasy, because
the annulment of the lease to R. S.
Howland, of Asheville, and as made in
September 1904 for a term of ninety
one vears. would mean or not mean so
much to them. This leaBe was as you
will recall, on a graded rental from
three per cent reaching up to seven
per cent while the lessees were to pay
off the floating debt immediately, and
also buy the supplies on hand.??: In ad
dition to this there was also to be ex
pended in improvements the sum of
$250,000, within a period Jof three
vears. ' So far the floating debt has
been paid, the supplies were bought
according to contract and about $200,
000 has been expended in permanent
improvements. Then in addition to all
this about $300,000 is being and will be
snent in bridmng and extending the
road into Beaufort Mr. Hill owned
one share of the stock of the road be
fore the lease, and later bought another
share. Another thing, too, lies in tin
fact that Craven county has joined in
suit, through a vote of the county com-
missioners. As it is an annulment
means the repayment of all the im
provement money besides any damages
sustained by the lessee, and it is fear
ed the the result will be a sale of the
road, It is already mortgaged and the
stock was worth about twenty-five
cents before the lease question was
ugh( on, while now it is worth sixty
five cents on the dollar. Of course the
foreclosure sale is bound to mean a
great drop in the price or worth of the
stock. Ther is now for sate quite a
little of the stock, which can be had
for for lees than the price recently
paid."
From m iny years association with
the insurance interests of the State and

President Moore Not Holding Office
for Politics. I
(Special Correspondence) -, j
Raleigh, Feby 19. President Moora
recently been quoted a number, of times
'The Rural South", a paper publis-h
ed in Alabama, and by the cotton grow
era, and in a section where much good
is being done by thorough organization
and the co-operation of the merchiiU.
and parties to other cnteprfso9: '"i'tie
wires from Atlanta asked the question:
Is pledged cotton being sold?" an I
then added: "Decline is unwarranted.
Stand pat," Replies from responsi
ble and prominent holders of spot eo -ton
all over the South were to the ef
fect that . those pledged for 15 ce.its
were holding oh firmly, that cotton v.-s
not ' selling.;;' From . South' Carolina,
president Moore has fine news as 10
progress and determination. In tint
State the farmers have paid in $10,00 ',
on the basis of the levy of 10 cents r:
bale. ' Georgia has exceeded all other
States in funds for the use of the ann
otation, but a great part of the monsy
received has been contributed b t'v
bankers, merchants and manufactur
ers, who were so desirous to seetlii
farmers placed on a firm and sure f 0 t
ing. mr. Moore says: -ine trutn a i 1
fact lies just here, that the busuv sj
men are more than ready and wilii i
to assist the farmers to launch their
enterprise of a" sustained market, t ut
shey want, at the same time, to be iis-
lured that the farmers are honest ly j
and earnestly supporting their ownfoi-
janization, and are doing nothing at) all
u retard its force and advancement."
Mr. Moore spoke with enthusiasm of the
Alabama association, which has seven
irganizers at work in the congressional
districts, and of the development' ia
Arkansas, Mississippi, and Texas. In
the laet named State E. D. Smith, tho
national organizer is at work in person.
There have been those already who
have' sounded a note to the effect that
Mr. Moore is in the association for
'politics". Your correspondent is' as
sured by cotton farmers and others
from all over the State that such a
thing is not even a passing thought
with this chief officer, of the State asso
ciation. Mr. Moore, perhaps even bet
ter than all the others who are directly
. . ,a , 1 : 1 ' .
or indirectly associated wicn mm m
this splendid enterprise he has under
taken, realizes fully and also expresses
his realization that political play can
only result in the attuning of a prelude
to the death march of the bouthern
Cotton Association, and Mr. Moore is
not in politics. . .
VOICE OF THE PE0RLE
Two Side of Griffith Street.
Much has been said. and written
about the bad condition of Griffith
street.' The city has made temporary
repairs from time to time and sunk
money enough in the mud of that
street to have paved it from Queen
to Crescent with Belgian blocks, cob
ble stones, or any ptner paving ma
terial. The condition of the roadway
has become a kind of moss covered
Joke, but tt is no joke for the beasts
who have to draw loads along it. That
street is no doubt a perplexing ques
tions to the city administration becaus
thoroughness is not a characteristic of
New Bern's public work. Not at pres
ent There is a moral as well as a
financial question involved in letting
Griffith street .remain in its present
conditions. No-one can deny that it is
cruelty to animals to compel them to
draw heavy loads day after day through
"I'.l til ill . ' citi
xens of New Bern accessory to this
crime by win? such conditions to
exist? It is aosolutely necessary that
traffic, and heavy at that, should con
stantly pass alone there. The mills
must have an outlet for their products
therefore tne roau must oe Kept open
Then it is up to the city administration
to see that it is kept in passable .con
dition, and the citizens should demand
that the administration do its duty,
otherwise it may be that the "blood of
the dumb beasts will cry against .' the
whole city. Again, have tho owners
of the animals who draw loads along
Griffith street, ever paused to consider
the enormous wear and tear on the
bodily strength of the animals? This
involves a heavy loss of money if taken
in the aggregate. ;

AWFUL
PSORIASIS
Terrible Scaly Humor In Patches
All Over the Body Skin Cracked
and Bleeding Itching Unbear
ableCured by Cuticura in Thirty
Days at Cost of $4,75.
ANOTHER WONDERFUL
CURE BY CUTICURA
"I was afflicted with psoriasis for
thirty-five years. It was in patches all
over my body. I used three cakes
. 01 soap, six boxes
Cuticura Oint-
.. mcnt,; and two
bottles of Cuti
cura Resolvent. I
bathed with the
- Soap, applied the
M?r V Ointment once a
'sSwMAk VV day, and took the
y'aJ Resolvent as di-
rected. v In thirty
days I was completely cured, and I
, think permanently, as it was about five
years ago. '
"The psoriasis first made its appear
ance in red spots, generally forming a
circle, leaving in the center a spot about
the size of a silver dollar of sound flesh.
Iu a short - time the affected circle
would form a heavy dry scale of a white
silvery appearance and would gradually
drop off. To remove the entire scales
by bathing or using oil to soften them
tlie flesh would be perfectly raw, and a
lifiht discharge ' of bloody substance
would ooze out. That scaly crust would
form again in twenty-four hours. It
was worse on my arms and limbs, al
though it was in spots all over my
body, also on my scalp. If I let the
scales remain too long without remov
ing by bath or otherwise, the skin
would crack and bleed. I suffered
intense itching, worse at nights after
getting warm in bed, or blood warm
by exercise, when it would be almost
unbearable. .
"To sum it all up, I would not go
thr6ugh such another ordeal of affliction
for thirty-five years for the State of

GOVERNOR GLENNS ADDRESSES.
He Held His Audiences In Delighted Enthral
ment at the Methodist Church.
The visits of Governor Glenn to New
t Born the past few months have been
I red letter days in the political religious
j secular history of the city. His advent
(is always the signal for a crowded
house for when he is advertised to
speak are sure of a treat. It is rare
indeed to have a man in authority, a
Governor of a State who can take the
place of a minister and fill it to the sat
isfaction of his audience. Governor
Glenn has preached a lay sermon twice
n the city and given evidence of a
thorough religious training and know
ledge of the scriptures. .
He was in New Bern Sunday in the
nterests of temperance and his address
in the Methodist church in the. after-
neon was the same that he has delivered
different ' citities throughout --' thf
State and he is making a record in a
most practical way that prohibition
must be successful and he certainly can
not be held responsible for its failure.
he campaign he is carrying on is more
to keep the question before the people
than to accomplish anything 6t a prli
tical nature and his knowledge of the
conditions in different parts oK the
State enables him to put his facts in
a much more convincing manner than
haps anyone else in the State,
His talk bore on the duty of the citi
zens to uphold the laws of the State,
The officers have sworn that they will
enforce the laws of the State and pro
tect the interests entrusted to their
care. Ths existence of "blind tigers'
shows that there is a failure in the duty
of officers to bring the guilty "parties to
justice and they should be held respon
sible for Such derelictness. He took up
with a thorough and convincing- argu
ment each proposition made by anti-
temperance men and showed how pro
hibition could be successful if temper
ance would co-operate with the officers
He showed that it was successful in
Hih Point, Dunn and other places in
the-State.
He dealt telling blows to those who
maintain that a big source of revenue
is cut off and that educational interests
and municipal improvements will suffer
Th money that is expended on liquor
wpl be more than enough to provide
for both of these and it . will be found
on trial that the money which has hither
to been wasted for drink will, if spent
wisely, be sufficient for many thingi
that had been denied,
He said that capital and labor were
the two giants that would make war
ngain3t each other and that they would
invade even the sacred precincts Of the
home. As long as there are combinef
of wealth, there will be combines of
labor and ns long as the two exist
strike and labor difficulties will fill this
world withw,re. Hesaid that the fifth
commandment had been reversed in
theso later days to be "Parents obey
your children that there may be peace
in the household" and that one great
cause of the social conditions was
the lax government in the family.
It was an earnest and helpful appeal
to vounir men and none left the church
without being benefited by the talk
