DEBT PAYING RELIGION now evangelist iuuitey Met ine v ', Issue Aa Man To Man. . In the city last week was Mr, Hugh Brewer, of Waco, Texas, cousin of Mr. S. W.' Brewer. Mr. Hugh Brewer comes from the same city as does Rev. Abe Mulkey. the ' evangelist, who' is conducting a aeries of meetings in Dur ham. : . - ' Mr. Brewer speaks in the highest terms of Mr. Mulkey and gives this in cident to show the principle that ba4 guided his life. , ' v . Mr. Mulkey was a business man in prospeious circumstance in Wacv The fortunes of trade went against him and he failed in his business. . Under the JihfiraJ laws f Teses hs letainwl out uf his failure a very handsome home for his own use. Then came the change in Mr. Mulkey's life and he was converted joining the church, ; . Then Mr. Mulkey got busy.' Re sold his home and put tha mow y into use to pay off part of his debts, this going to his creditors. Then he made some money and when he had accumulated enough he began to pay off his debts, not. taking into consideration the laws which had made blrn free. ; Finally his bank account was such as to enable him to pay off dollar for dollar," and he did this. ; That was the effect of the re ligion which had come to him,' and it marks out the manner of man 'that he typifies, a debt-paying christian.' This is the record of Evangelist Mulkey and it is a record which shows what conver sion and Christianity does for a man, who is really a man- and who wants, to stand as a man.

" Mr Overman was then asked how the bill would affect the consumer, With no hesitation but with great .firmness he declared that'tbe present rate? make tne consumer contribute toe proms of the trusts The consumer must under the existing condition pay a tribute1 to the great trusts which control the sup ply and demand of the different articles which are necessities of life. W Further than this the tariff is discrim mating, against the South. ,Jha tariff is reduced on most of the eotton good manufactured in the South but increas ed on the goods manufactured in the New England cotton mills. In many cases of trust-made articles the sche dules have been so increase 1 that no goods can come m and therefore no revenue will de obtained " In comparing the present bill With the Dtngley tariff bill which "was the highest on record, Mr.Overman said that the average of the Dingley ' bill was 44.80 per eent. and the: averrge of the present bill i 45 per cent.

Here, as Elsewhere, the ConHumer Must be Satisfied if he is Aot f Worse off Than Before. .. Though Cotureaa haa removed the duty on hides it is extremely doubtful that shoes will be cheaper. Thetela al- ready talk of a hide and leather trust that will keep up ibt price of leather, William L, Douglass, a large manufact urer, says the . people will get better shoes for their money, but he will not predict that prices will be lower. . As the Charlotte Observer remarks: : ' It Uie great manufacturing concerns wilt not give us cheapor footwear, how do we know that they. Will give us bet ter. We do not know it, and with due respect to Mr. Douglass and those who talk as he does, we think mast people will refuse to credit the promise, and will only believe it when the proof is presented them.. V- w.'i,. v- The truth seems to e that we have absolutely ; no assurance that the removal of trie duty on hulus will give us cheaper shoes. If the leatuer and shoe interests and business of the coun try are to fall into the clutches of a hide and leather trust, we will gain no thing by free hides. The government will lose the duty and the consumer will gam nothing. The octopus will still be very much in evidence. " ' This is rather a pessimistic view, but it is warranted by precedent and in the light of trust history u perfectly rea sonable. There are fe ch tncs in the new tariff la va th it wen prete-id -d to give the ultimtto ,:umtr reli rt and it appeals that th v will be e r -ral in stances of nii!lifi -ii,inof any ir- d Lhat might htve come from the "revision downwmd " r . The free hide project was simply delusion.

M, Adams, writing to that paper, an article having to do with the question, ' la a man of 60 too old In nl..l t.lf M 1 .... nn indeed; nor ia a man of 80, if he feels able to do it Most of the orchards, it ia said, are planted by men past middle life. The greater part of the fruit we eat was set out by those who hsve gone before us. If we should stop planting simply because we are old, the next or second next, generation would not. have any fruit to speak of , ; j' The writer has set out three apple or chards and three peach orchards aince he wss 60 years of age. We moved onto this place in 1836, anJ tbe spring of that year I planted fifty appU trees and fifty peach tret a, and a year later fifty more app'e tre-s. The apples are still bearing, and tho firt orchard sit ia paat its prime. Tne peaches planted at that time bad serve! their day many years ago, and we gruhbed out, bu: we had another peach orchard about ready to bear when the first one had passed its prime. i The peach is a short-lived tree, but burs always yield abundan y while they last. The second orchard is now nearing the end of its usefulness, and last spring I set a third peach or chard, and it will be ready to bear by tha lima thia nMwnd Ana ia 0-nn Six or seven years ago I set te sec - . ond apple orchard, and we had several bushels of fine apples from it last fall in fact, we would have had enough t't do the average family all tbe year from the new orchard had it not been for th freeze of May 1 last year. We always have fine ripe apples from July op to about this time of year. We still have a few bushels of Jon tthms left no v. I an ' now 73 years of age, and if I keep my hea'th and etrenth.
