Ootsida of England the war In South Africa is regarded as a cruel one ; and . j heiieva outtide of the United States .3 war in the Philippines is regarded w equally cruel and uujust. Both the .vara ought to have been averted in some way. A friend and subscribsr writing the e titor of The Commonwealth a few uay ago intimated that we print aud '.viite more about "liquor and debt paying than anything else." We think our friend is slightly mistaken, for we try to print and write about any arid everything which will interest a;d instruct and uplift our readers; bnt v.e do believe from the deepest -iGi.iI-deptb.8 of our nature that the hu man race i afflicted with no greater curse than the liquor traffic and in temperance, and we as firmly be lieve that every man ought to pay his hon e.t debts if he can, and if he cannot then teil the man be owes why he can i; t and does not pay him. Tne Oiivia R-iney Library, worth forty thousand dollar., was a magn ifi t;atit gilt to the State. It was formally ni'c-aeut?d to the city ot Raleigh last .,- j. The exercises were held in the building. Dr. A. A. Marshall, pastor of the First Baptist church of Raleigh, made tLj presentation speech, and R.. T. Gray, E.-q., accepted the noble gift for t;3 city. It was given to the citv by u. B. Ilaney, Eq., in memory of Mrs. Olivia Cowper Raaey, his wife. It vv.i5 Ciie of the most liberal donations i the kind in tbe history of the State. A writer in MoCkire's Magazine for Mti.v, 1898, told a wonderful story about Vt A. Juhn Milne's observations of cr:i: quakes. s tie writer in the first para graph," At the very centre of the Isle of VVia'at, in a little place called t?hide th it tccit people in England never h :ud of, lives ascieniest who probably knows more about earthquakes than ,tv ne elssin the world John Miine, mT. Wr of learned ncieties, late pro fes.. r of seismology at the University ot Tokio, and a cbarning roan into the bargain." Then the writer gives an interesting account of Prof. Milne's apparatus for making hia observations, tell how he can give the most accurate information about earthquakes in all parts ot the world. He can tell so much about tremors and vibrations of the earth that one becomes dazed at his declaration. In one paragraph Prof.' Milne is made to .-ay that his pendulums placed on buildings on opposite sides of a city thoroughfare "would show that tbe buildings literally lean towards each other during the heavy traffic period of the day , dragged over from their level by tbe load of vehicles and people pressing down upon the pavements.

Aycock sent his first message to the Senate of North Carolina at noon when Private Secre tary Pearsall entered the chamber and delivered a communication from the Governor nominating Hon. James R Young, of Vance county, as insurance commissioner of North Carolina. Tbe Ssnate in executive session confirmed this nomination for Mr. Young as in surance commissioner for a term of four ytars. The general proceedings were brief, and there was iittla done of general in terest. IIOUrE Tne House session wai short, only lasting about two hours, but several bills were introduced that are likely to make some mighty long saseioufl. Among tnese were an anti trust bill, an act to legalize primaries, a bill defining the liability of insurance companies, a"Crump?,cker" concoction from "our friends the enemy," and a plea for the restoration of the writ of mandamus to its "ancient dignity." ilr. Robinson, of Anson, introduced the anti-trust bill, to prohibit pools, trusts, monopolies and conspiracies from ontroliing business and prices of articles. TUESDAY JAN. 22. (The Morning Post.) Beyond the formalities and speeches attendant upon the election of Hon. F. M. Simmons to be United States Senator, there was little of interest in tha proceedings of the Senate. HOUSE. The resolution inviting Dr. J. L. M. Curry, the agent ot the Pea body fund, to address the General Assembly was made the occasion of a sensational debate, which occupied nearly two hours. Leading Demociata vigoiouply fought the passage ot the resolution because ic was alleged that Dr. Curry used his influence in behalf of Congressman Richmond Pearson ia tho contest, against W. T. Crawford. It v. as charged that Dr. Carry lobbied in Washington in behalf of Mr. Pearson. The fight over the adoption of the resolution was a lively one and there were many snarp passages among members on tbe floor of the House. The Republicans were a nmt in sup port of the resolution Tbe opposition mustered 13 yotes on a roll call of votes. WEDNESDAY, JAN. 23rd. ' News & Observer. SENATEThe anti-cigarette bill Intro duced by Senator Brown, and favorably reported by tbe Senate Committee on Propositions and Grievances, was the order and the galleries and lobbies were crowded to hear the discussion which the measure was expected to excite. However, this did not materialize, for Fenator Vann moved, as soon as the bill was taken np, that it be referred to the Judiciary Committe, and Senator Brown acceded to this course. How ever, in so doing he distinctly stated that this was not the end of the bill ; it would come before the Senate for action, but since some legal points had been raised, ho was will'rg to have the judgment of tbe Judiciary Committee before proceeding further. The bill w.;s not intended to operata against 2-iTcrtb Carolinian.?, and did nut pro hibit the manufacture but the sale in the State.

Adopted by a rising vote. HOUSE. The members introduced a number ot bills, and a still a larger number passed the third reading. Only two bills provoked any debate. These were : Tbe bill to enact a general stock law, which was debated and finally referred to the Committee on Agriculture.

Thursday, Jan. 24th. (Morning Post.) SENATE A worthy bill, deserving of prompt passage, was introduced by Senator Stringfield to facilitate the publication of the Confederate Regi ments ot North Carolina. Tbe text of the bill is as follows Whereas, owing to the age and in creasing number of deaths among the Contec'erate veterans, It is desirable to expedite the printing of the histories of Confederate Regiments of this State The General Assembly ot North Car olina do enact : Section 1. That the work of print ing and binding tbe histories of regi ments from North Carolina, 1861-65, authorized by chapter 28, Acts 1899, hall not be embraced in any contract for the public printing, bat shall be let by a committee of two Senators (ap pointed by tbe president of tbe Senate aud three members of the House of Representatives (appointed by tbe speaker thereof) to some printing es tablishment in this State which shall give bond for the proper and prompt execution there of within a time pre scribed by said committee, at a price, however not to exceed that allowed for the public printing. Sec. 2. That a copy o! the work shall be distributed to the writer of each sketch and to the editor of tbe work in addition to those authorized to be distributed by said act of 1899. Sec. 3. That tbe said committee nhall requiro the work to be stereotyped in order that additional copies may be printed as required without extra cost for typesetting, the sterotyping process to be purchased and owned by the State and the plates, when made, to remain the property of the State. Sec. 4. That the work of completing the "State records" shall be let by thp same committe in the same manner, at a price not exceeding that paid the public printer. Sec. 5. This aet ahall be in force from and after its ratification. Tbe session ot the Senate was a briei one, lasting just one hour. At 12 o'clock, noon, tbe Senate went over in a body to bear the eloquent aod instructive debate ot Dr. J. L. M. Curry, treasurer ot the Peabody fund. Bnt tbe Senators put in a lot of hard work in the afternoon a dozen of the committees meeting and disposing of much routine busicess. HOUSE-Mr. Gait is d Orange introduc ed a bill giying the University of North Carolina increased appropriations to tbe amount of $25,5C0. Of this amount $10,500 is to be devoted to the needed improvements and $15,000 is to be added to t be regular Appropri ation to provide additional teachers in the mamterjace ot the University. The bill as introduced by Mr. Gattis is as follows : Whereas, The appropriation hereto fore made bas been insufficient to com plete tbe system of water works and sewerage for the University, and the same is unfinished, and, whereas, by reason of the building and grounds be ing in urgent need of repairs and im provements, and, whereas, by reason of the largely increased attendance of stu dents, an increase of the teaching force is greatly desired ; and. whereas, by- Article 6, Secti m 7, of the Constitu tion the General Atembly is directed to make provision for the maintenance of tbe University. Tbe General Assembly of North Car olina do enact : Sec. 1.

The Commonwealth presents below some testimonials for tbe Dispensary as it has worked in Fayettevi'.le. The Dispensary question is before tbe peo ple of tbe State in many places, and ur readers are entitled to know about it. Tbe compilations below were made by Rev. C. W. Blancbard for The Exponent. Tbe dispensary reduces crime be cause it reduces the quantity of liquor consumed. It reducce3 the quantity of liquor consumed because, under tbe rules governing the manage ment of tbe dispensary, no liquor is allowed to be sold to drunkards or minors, nor can the liquor bought at the dispensary be drunk upon the premises. The dispeosaiy closes at sundown, and is not allowed to open till sunrise, nor is it allowed to do business on Sun day. The dispensary reduces crime further because it has driven from the county some twelve or fifteen whiskey disttil- leries, many of them illicit, with their debauching and demoralizing in fluence. mayor cook's statement. Mayor's Office, Fayetteviile, N. C, December 21st, 1900. Upon a comparison of the yee-3 pre vious to 1897, we find that in the ar rests made since the dispensary has been in force, there has been a decrease of at least 50 per cent, and we can safely say that our city has been quiet er and more orderly than we have ever known it to be. W. S. Cook, Mayor. Criminal Court, under the saloon era, ran on full time 100 to 150 cases being sometimes left untried on tbe docket for lack of time, while now the courts hardly oyer remain In session longer that three of four days, the Judge adjourning court for lack of cases to try. CHIEF OP POLICE FLOWERS' STATEMENT. As Chief of Police of tbe City of Fay etteviile, a position which I baye held for 14 years, I can state that I do not have one half the number ot drunk and disorderly cases to contend with since the Dispensary bas been in existence that I had before. On Saturday and Monday before Christmas the crowds in the city were probably larger than e-er before, but there was very little drunkenness and only two arrests for disorderly conduct due to drunken ness made on both days. , On Christ mas day the public order was almo-t perfect, only one arrest haying been made. No extra police force was nec- cessary during the holidays, tho regu- ar force preserving the best of order witout any trouble. Signed W.H. Flowers, Chief of Police. MAGISTRATES OF FAYETTEVILLE. Fayetteviile, N. C, Jan 4th, 1901. I have been a magistrate of Cross Creek Township Cnmberland County about 14 years, and will say, since the dispensary has been in existence, crime has decreased, and it has been of ma terial benefit to the community. Pub lic order is tar better than under the saloon system and my observation is that to the working people especially it means better homes and happier families. Signed C. P. Overby. J. P. Fayetteviile, N. C, Jan. 1st 1901. I have been a magistrate of Cross Creek Township for some 12 years. There has been fully a decrease of fifty per cent, in drunkenness and crime siacs tbe dispensary has been in exist tence. I also own and control at least sixty houses, and find it decidedly easi er to collect rents than ever before. I also find that my tenants now provide lor their families much better than when the bars existed. All my houses are full and I haye ap plications for 25 more if I bad them. Signed C. B. McMiLtAN, J. P Fayetteville, N. C. Jan. 3, 1901. To whom It may concern : This is to certify that for about eight years I have been acting Justice of the Peace lor Cumberland county and in Cross Creek township, and I have fonnd that very few criminal cases growing out of drunkenness have come into my court since tbe dispensary bas been in opera tion among us, compaied to what did when we had open saloons. ISigned D.N. McLean, J. P. Th! signature ia on every box of the gennin Laxative Brfxno-Quiniise Tablet the remedy that cooes aveMa Wilmington, Charlotte, Raleigh, Goldsboro and other large towns in the State all report much drunkenness and disorder during the ; Christmas holi days,, tbe Messenger reporting 24 ar rests for Christmas day alone. In Fayetteviile there was but one arrest. while tbe public order generally was never so good. The Fayetteviile Ob server, in its issue of Dec. 22d, (Satur day before Christmas) says : "Up to three o'clock tbe police had not made an arrest to-day for disorder ly conduct, though every street is packed with an enormous crowd. Then is of course some drunkenness, but none are offensively so yet." It says in its issue of Dec?moer the 26tb : "The weather yesterday was perfect, and tbe day was one ot quiet enjoyment by eyfry one. Last night the city was ablaze with fire works, aud from every quarter of tbe town, covering a radius of over a mile, sky rockets shot up into tbe air, nnd tbe giant candle crackers boomed forth. Never before, possibly, was so much powder burned in Fay- etteyille. Stianue to say, there were no serious accident, and, though there nas some drunkenness, it was more of tbe good uatured sort. Several stacks of bay were set on fire by sparks from rockets, and made huge bon-fires, but there was no necessity for the fire alarm all day." MORALLY. The moral effects of the dispensary are everywhere visible to those who are willing to see them, both in town and county. The improvement is truly marvelous. Farmers can now send their boys and teamsters to town to trnnsaftt t.hoir luiainAan in nil anfat.tr .... f ' while under saloons they feared to do this because of the dangers and temp- tations which beset them on every hnnri Thnt f afinaiir.fr a.iia r.f ih. .... , .,B saloon, the treating habit, is largely dpslroved hv the dinnenHarv. t.hA nilpa ..... . . ol which lorbid the drinking of liquor on tbe premises. With no open saloon tempting them at every corner, the young men of the town find it easier to devote their leisure evenings to health ier and more profitable employment than wasting their time in the whiskey saloons. On our public streets tbe im provement is marked. Many who live in the country testify that they met ten drunken men on tbe road when saloons existed where they meet one now. In town tbe drunken riff-raff which formerly infested the sidewalks in front of every saloon have been scattered, and our ladies can now travel on any business street in town without risk of sinult or indignity. Is not the agency which accomplished this better than the saloon ? A PROMINENT CHICAGO WOMAN SPEAKS. Prof. Roxa Tyler, of Chicago, Vice President Illinois Woman's Alliance, in speakiug of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, says: "I suffered with a severe cold this winter which threat ened to run into pneumonia. I tried different remedies but I seemed to grow worse and tbe medicine upset my stomach. A friend advised me to try Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and I found it was pleasant to take and it relieved me at once. Iam now entire ly recovered, saved a doctor's bill, time ani suffering, and I will never be without this splendid medicine again." For sale by E. T.
