In a hurried Interview the other day with Chairman John A. Oatea, ot the North Carolina Anti-Saloon League, your correspondent made him say, that the ' Stater voting as ' unit, would soon drive the saloons and the dispensaries out of North Carolina. What chalr Oatea really said was "acting as a unit." There Is ot course a difference : between the word which has a value. Acting as a unit will admit of either - a constitutional amendment or prohi bition by an act of the legislature. It seems to be regarded a perfectly set tled thing that North Carolina is to . have complete prohibition and. that soon.' Of course no one knows, not even, the governor yet, whether there will be an extra session of the legisla ture or not In case there Is. whether It will take up the Anti-Ltquor ques . tion, but certainly a very great nnm v, ber of people believe it will. The cara : paign against blind tigerohere has al . ready begn. Two- tenderloin women, one f whom Is the notorious Bertha Brown, were . arrested Friday on the charge of selling whiskey, a drunken man having been found at one of the , houses. . He was taken before a magts trate and toldjhe truth, that he got whiskey from both pluces. The wo- men were held under a' $500 justified bond for which cash was put up. Mayor Johnson seems to be very much pleased at the condition of. affairs 'since 'the dispensary closed. Sunday Was very quiet Indeed. "Today man- : agef Batchelor had a conference with the revenue authorities as to , what should be dune with the small stock of whiskey and brandy on hand at the dispensary, amounting to about 12,500. . ' It cannot be sent anywhere else In the State and sold, not even to another, ' It Is stated and Mayor Johnson said that it would ln all probability be shipped to Richmond with Instructions to have It sold for what It would britig. Most of the stuff had been In the dispensary several years, there having been a relatively small demand for high priced goods. Yet a great many persons have said that the dis pensary would not sell good whiskey.

Gov- erfior Glenn was notified today that the Atlantic Coast Line Railway had brought about an indefinite postpone ment of the hearing as to the passen- 1-ger rate question, which had been fixed for January 9th, at Wilmington before Standing Master Walter A. Montgomery. ' Your correspondent has mentioned the fact that no little pr ywe has been brought to bear upon the Atlantic Coast Line by the Southern, the Seaboard Air Line, the Norfolk and Southern, Norfolk and Western, and other roads in order to Induce It to fall in line with the plan suggested by Governor Glenn tor a 1-2 cent uniform rate everywhere south of Washington, and 2 cent mile age books for the longer distances. Last night your correspondent heard that the A. C. L. was on the point ot falling In line and that only two or three minor points of difference exist ed between it and the governor. This statement was renewUPuiday and it looks as it the Coast Line will soon be in the procession. The step an nounced today has this bearing, . As soon as it comes in the legislature will be called and the session will quickly follow the call as there is no time limit between the call and the assembling of the General Assembly. The A. C. L. seems to show what it: is expected to do by its agreement Jo continue the hearing until after the session of .the- legislating alnr this Is what i,ts action means in plain terms. ' " ' : '". - Today this news brought about in creased talk about whatfthe legisla ture might do, that is whether It will go outside of railway matters or not Evidently the officials expected to con sider only these matters. Some per sons were saying that the Governor might lay the prohibition question be fore It but the governor a fortnight ago, said very plainly that the call would be for a specific purpose; that Is on the railroad question, and that he thought thla could be disposed ot In a very few days. ' He 'seemed to think,' as do some other' prominent men that the lejlslature would not undertake matters outside of the call. This was the talk a fortnight ago.

EixNH CARRIES CINE Splendid Address by Sovereign Banker Shepard of Texas Over 800 Vlsl tors From . Other Camps Jtany Grotesque Costunes Which Greatly Amuses the Crowds. The log rolling which the Elmwood Camp No, 12, Woodmen of the World, planned for the New Year, was carried out In detail and It was all the suc cess that was anticipated. This was the third annual celebration and neith er pain nor expense was spared in making the parade feature something to be remembered, not only id" the sing, but through the year as one of the most grotesque and fantastic events that ever took place in New Bern.-: Incidentally the claims of the order as a fraternal and Insurance organization , was impressed on the mind of the public. " The idea ot the Woodman comes close, to the heart of the people of this section, for obvious reasons, and therefore sWh a demonstration as that was yesterday, appeals to the people more than anything else no matter how much more magnificent it could have been. It did not require much imagination to hear in the process of events, the sturdy stroke of the Wood man, the crash of the falling tree, or the comamnds ot the driver to his team as they patiently awaited the drivers word. It was all a pleasing departure from the monontous scenes of daily life and was enjoyed by the spectators as keenly as by the parti cipants. The trains brought large numbers from other points. Representations from camps in Goldsboro, Kinston, Pollocksville, Trentn, Maysvflle, Green vUle,., JaneavlUe, and Morelyad.jCto. There were also large numbers com ing in by carriages and wagons; in fact there has not been a more lively time than was seen yesterday for many months. The weather was mag nificent and every body was in good humor. Some time was occupied In getting the arrangement of the order ot march and in the meantime the Woodmen in their overalls and . Jumpers and with their axes were going hither and thither for the great spectacle. In ad dition to the Woodmen in the odd cos tumes of old time farmers, some were dressed as swains and others as if they didn't care. One picturesque character was Mr. L. M. Lanier, who was dressed up as an old negress with al the colors of the rainbow attach ed to some part of his anatomy. He rode a mule in the procession and was the observed ot all observers. The music was pleasingly rendered by ths Knights of Pythias Band, the members of which were attired to the spirit ot the occasion. Following was the line of march: Chief Marahal, C. J.

Special Correspondence. Raleigh, N. C, Jany 2. The temper ance people here are right after the blind tigers 'and the first conviction results in a sentence of six months on the road. The man said that he bought the whiskey from Bertha Brown, a tenderloin woman,' and sold it on election day to two men. Hence he claimed not to be the dealer. - At first it could not be found out from whom he bought the liquor. The tem perance people will keep up the es pionage of the tigers constantly, and they find the mayor and all the au thorities strongly back of the move ment. Since Christmas Eve, there has been practically no drinking as far as the world can see. Governor Glenn has kept very quiet this week and is walking with a cane. When he came into the office this morning, a large party of prominent men were them and when these asked htm how he felt he replied "pretty well for a man suffering with the lum bago." The penitentiary directors made their report to the governor, and It is very Interesting indeed. It shows a treasury balance December 31st, of $28,391, with all December bills paid, no outstanding bills and assets amount Ing to $104,168, these being calculated on a very sate basis. it has been 1 tqiindJiiBXJthp., value gt;.the.,jssBe.it8 when sales were made, has always largely exceeded the estimate made in the reports to the governor. On the third day of April, the penitentiary paid the State $175,000 as required by the act of March 9th to do. ; It pays annually $2,400 interest on the bonds Issued to buy its farm, these being State farms, and the directors think the State ought to pay this Interest as is takes Buch a large proportion of the funds of the penitentiary for gen eral purposes. - Excellent work In the way ot improvements have been made at the farm, Including ample ware houses for the crops, new buildings for the supervisors, etc The year has been a quiet one, with no unuusal sickness or serious rebellion, and with fewer attempt sto escape than usual The crops in 1907. were of the poorest in seven years. The brick yard did no do so well as at first the quality of clay was poor, but now it is better. A sewer has been, built connecting with the city sewer at a cost ot $2,279. An artesian Well 750 feet deep has been bored, yielding very pure water, most of the well being through solid granite. The cost is $5,763. For the dangerous insane department $3,000 was expended during the year. There was twice during the year serious trouble with the dangerous insane, due to successful attempts to escape Both, times they took possession of the prison gates Immediately under the guard and through the gate made their way to liberty, the guard not being able to stop . them unless he shot and having no authority to shoot these people. All who escaped have been recaptured except two. The guard was not held at any fault but was complimented for his success in preventing a larger number of them from escaping. 'State veterinarian Talt Butler who has charge of the Farmers Institutes is very much pleased at the action taken by Congressman Charles R. Thomas, who will give aid from the National Department of Agriculture by having two or throe of its experts at the Institute at Rlchlands, Msys- vtlle, Bayboro and New Bern, these to speak on good roads, drainage, etc. The co-operation is very much appre ciated. Two lads named Sefton and Cum mlng, arlved from Scotland today and are at the agricultural department Both are trained In farming and' dairy ing. As yet they are not placed.
