W. J. Moore, owner and proprietor
of the Charles Hotel at Morehead
City, succumbed to an attack of acute
indigestion at his home at that place
early yesterday morning. The remains (
accompanied by his immediate family'
passed through the city last evening
enroute to Charlotte where the inter

Mr. Moore was well known all over
the State. He was at one time pro
prietor of the Tarrymore- Hotel at
Wrightsville Beach. Disposing of his
interests there he moved to Swansboro
and erected a large structure and
opened another hotel, this also being
known as the Tarrymore Hotel. Later
he moved to Morehead City and pur
chased from C. S, Wallace the Charles
Hotel and has .since that time operated
this ooDular hostelry.

to enable the Auditor to furnish the
necessary data as to its equity, the
request was tabled for the time. Mr.
Biddle made the statement that his
office netted him $1,500 per year and
this was proven to my satisfaction.
fhc Register of Deed's and Clerk's
office net about $21,00 each per year.
Sheriff Lane states that his office nets
him less than S100 per month. I be
lieve this is true.
"He employs three deputies in office
and has in charge, at his expense the
collecting .of all taxes due the State
and County, amounting to nearly
$115,000, an increase cf $20,000 over
receipts of two years ago: he uses two
horxes, which are furnished and kept
at his expense; his bond is for $45,000
and costs him 5170.00
"Sheriff Lane is an active, fearless
officer and in the --serving of papers
upon criminals is aftcn exposed to
danger and had weather. I am of the
'opinion that his salary should be in
creased joOO psr year, making a gross
salary of $4,300.
The toal amount paid out by harifT
l ane in January, according to an
itemized statement which . he made
to the County Commissioners was
$226.72. This left a balance of $81.61.
He had personal expenses of 71.28

Richmond, Va., Feb. 20. The re

boy in Alexandria, making the third
known death from this disease in thi
State during the last twelve months,
is causing the Mate s health .'oracer
no little concern and is generally taken
indicate that the mad-dog proDiem
is steadily becoming more acute.
Despite repeated warnings, lev.
counties and cities have taken any
precautions to protect their citizei s
against the rabid animals. As a re
sult, during the last fiscal year, the
State treated at its health laboratory.
here mnetv-four persons who had been
exposed to the infiction, and the year's
record of the Boards of Health show
that a "man in Patrick county and a
colored child in Southside Virginia
have already succumbed to the disease
which claimed its third victim hut
week in Alexandria.
Said an officer of the board in dis
cussing the Alexandria case: i nis
horrible tragedy adds anotner cnaptcr
to the very distressing story of neg
lect with which health ofheers are
now familar. The counties and cities
are bringing this suffering on our citi
zens by failure to adopt and enforce
any regulations for the muzzling of
dogs. Animals arc allowed to roam at
large unhindered and often bite dozens
of persons before being killed."
'Much of the present indifference
on the subject i3 due to the general
knowledge that even it a person is Dil
ten by a rabid animal he may be treat
ed without discomfort and can avcid
all danger. This is true, for the State
last year treated lie: ol cost, a total
of ninety-fouipersons without fatality
or inconvenience. Yet transportation
and living expenses during the three
weeks these people took treatment
amounted to at leat five thousand
dollars. -In addition, hundreds of val
uable horses, cattle and domestic am
mals have to be destroyed every year
because thev are bitten by rabid ani
mals. The money value of property
thus destroyed reaches high into' the
thousands. Every dollar of this is a
toll of our own neglect. If we enforce
muzzling ordinances, rabies will stop
and will become as rare as it is in
European counties.
"Instead of decreasing, rabies seems
steadily,.un the increase in Virginia and
is not confined to any one season of
the year. We now have ten patients
under treatment and are almost daily
receiving new patients. Virginia is
paving heavily for neglect ol very sim
ple precautions."

Yesterday morning shortly before
the arrival of the train from WBming

Union passenger station and began
his watch for a possible customer.
Just after the arrival of the train the
negro spied a man who he thought
had that thirsty look arid without any
introduction or preliminaries masked
if he was looking for "something".
The passenger said he was, in fact was
so "dry" that his throat was burning
and that the only thing thai could
ease the agony was a pull at a flask
of "the ardent." t
From the depths of his coat pocket
Brady carefully drew forth a '"bottle
containing an amber fluid closely re
sembling whiskey, there was an ex
change of money and the transaction
was closed as tar as isrady was con
cerned. But hark, the stranger was
no ordinary citizen, he was a constable

dispenser of the whiskey was in the
grasp of the law and on his way to the

found that the contents of the bottle
was not whiskey but something re

It is expected by the admirers of

Secretaryship of State.
New York, Feb. 22. To friends of
William Jennings Bryan are expressing
regret and his critics pleas, re at infor
mation said to have reached President
elect Wilson to the elect that Mr.
Bryan will not accept the (.lace of
Secretary of State in Mr. Wilson's
Cqbinet. -
This information, which is accept
ed as conclusive by the friends of Mr.
Bryan, 's believed to have been con
veyed to Mr. Wilson by Col. E. M.
House, the personal friend of both
men.
The explanation of Mr. Bryan's de
cision to decline the tender of the most
important office in Mr. Wilson's Cab
inet is that he has no selfish or personal
desire to secure personal recognition for
his admittedly valuable services in
contributing to the nomination of Mr.
Wilson at Baltimore.
The friends of Mr. Bryan believe
they have reason to justify the pre
diction thatshe will clearly set forth
his views and will make known his
amicable relations with presidentelect
Wilson in a statement to the publicwhich
he is said to have already prepared.
Since the tender of the office of Sec
retary of State to him, Mr Bryan has
maintained the utmost reticence con
cerning his purposes; yet he is said to
have never wavered in his determi
nation to decline the honer on the
ground that he is not expecting any
personal reward.
Persons who enjoy the confidence
cf Mr. Wilson have the best cf reasons
for their conviction that he would

who was recently appointed as road
supervisor and highway engineer by
the Lraven Lounty Board ol Lom-

Mr. Snowdert says that the roads are
in verv bad condition, with the ex
ception of certain sections which have
recently been put in better order by
the convicts, and that much work is
reauired on them-.'
Mr. Snowden has come to the con
elusion that the roads are not properly
drained and that this is the cause of
their bad condition and that unless
they ar,c drained it will be a waste of
lime IU LOUCU1UC wumilig ufuu mcui.
It is an easy matter, said Mr. Snow
den, to drain the roads and this work
will be started soon. Machinery for
the purpose has been ordered and should
arrive soon and will be put into ser
vice at ortce.
Another innovation that has bee
introduced by the new road supervisor
is movable camps for the convicts who
will be sued in working the roads.
Bv the use of these it will not be neces
sary to march the convicts pack to
their quarters at the county home alter
each day's work and in this manner
much time will be saved.

I have recently been interested in
some articles which have appeared
in your paper on the qi estion of the
State-Wide Stock law. I believe most
of the thinking people of North Caro
lina are in favor of the State Wide
Stock Law. Of course, I can under
stand how some of our politicians op
pose it because they think it may not
be popular with all the voters.
What is the State-Wide Stock Law?
If I udnerstand the proposition it is
a law that would require every person
to keep his own hogs, cattle and all
live stock on his own premises, or en
closed in some general neighborhood
wood pasture. At present we are
compelled to fence our crops and can
turn our stock loose upon the public
roads or elsewhere to root hog or die.
This is known as the Tick District
where the ticks gather upon the cattle
and fevor them up and our people are
compelled to eat such beef. The law
prohibits us from shipping our beef
outside of the Tick District, conse
quently our stock raising brings no
new money to this section, out in ad
dition to the poor ticky beef we arc
compelled to eat we send large amount
of money to other districts for beef
which is consumed within this terri
tory. I beli'eve there is no better sec
tion in the State than Eastern North
Carolina for successful stock raising,
provided we had the stock law and get
rid of the cattle ticks, but under pre
sent conditions we cannot conduct this
business with any profit.
The State-Wide Stock Law would
be worth more millions of wealth to
North Carolina at practically no cost
than any other one proposition which
our Legislative body could consider.
In sections where it has been tried it
