" ' ' 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. ' Killed in Railway Accident.

(or Raleigh Postmasterthlp. ' (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."

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. ; 1 A. B.

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. .

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.
