The one over-shadowing public building in this city is, of course the Capitol. The corner-stone of the Capitol was laid on September provisions, and the vaults under the terrace were used as bakeries. where sixteen thousand loaves of bread were baked every day for many months. These "bakeries" are now clerks offices and comittee rooms. Among the many famous paintings and portraits of high ar tistic excellence, that adorns the walls of the Capitol, the only re minded of the Civil War is that of the Merriraac and Monitor, paint ed by Halsall and purchased in 187 for 15,000.

If, however, your honorable body does not agree with me, and think the State and not thfe railroads should pay this cost, it is for you and not for me to decide." Another matter is the need of two small judicial districts consist- ing or a county eacn so that in i case a judge was sick or detained for other reasons, one of these judges could leave the smaller dis trict and hold the court. The message contains much about State prohibition and the Governor has been praised and criticised for his remarks on that subject. Below is given what it contains on the subject: A reason given for the adoption of the agreement reached, is the fact that other Southern grates, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabam, Tennessee and probably Virginia hare accepted a like rate, thus giring a uniform rate for a large portion of the South. Taking up the matter of discrim i nations, the Governor says: One of the most serious com plaints now existing against rail roads is the discriminations made by them agiinst the cities and towns of iNorth Carolina in favor of like cities and towns in other States, notably Virginia, by reason of which jobbers and wholesale merchants in Virginia can undersell the same class of merchants in NVrth Carolina. The cause .of this is the rate given by the Nor folk and Western and Chesapeake and Ohio railroads to . R.anoke. Lynchburg and Richmond, being the same rate given to Norfolk, Va., on account of its water-rate com petition. To meet the rate of the railroads above named, the South em, the Coast Line and Sealoard railroads had to give the same rate, and so haul freight through North Carolina to Virginia cities for a leas amount than they haul to the cities of North Carolina; and often our shippers can better pay the through freight to the Virginia point, plus the local rate bacKto ths NbrthCoroIina point, than pay the through rate in the first instance to the North Carolina point. This can and should be corrected. The Corporation Commission has now instituted proeeedfng before the Interstate Commerce Commission against the Norfolk and Western Railroad for discriminating in favor of Lynchburg and Roanoke, Va., ob its line, over Durham and Win ston, N. C, also on its line. There can be no defence made for this unjust difference, and we feel as sured that the Interstate Commerce CJoramission will correct the dis criminations as to these points in North Carolina. When the Nor folk and Western is thus forced .to adjust tbe j-ates for" these two cities in North Carolina, competition will compel Ue other railroad sys tems to give the same rate to these points, and then they will be com pelled to give them to other North Carolina cities, else there will be discrimination between points in North Carolina, which "is forbiden by law. There is another matter thai, will doubtless engage your mast careful consideration. 1 allude to the question of State prohibiiton. The . 1 t KT tl. I..

ILLUSTRATIVE am thoroughly satished that In- act ever passed by any leg islative body in North Carolina would give the joy or be more gen erally endorsed than would be the act of this General Assembly in giving prohibiti3ii to the entire State. "tinder the Watts, Ward and other similar bills, by legislative en actment prohibition was given to all rural districts, until at least four-tifths of the State's territory thus had prohibited laws. These acts have produced good, and not evil, and have been endorsed by the votes of tho people in three general elections. Also, under the same laws, villages., towns and cities throughout the State have declared for temperance, until ninety per cent of the entire territory of the State now has prohibition. Thus we know the will of the people, for they haye spoken bv their votes in no uncertain sound, untui an agree that it . is inevitable that liquor must go. oo, why, then, entail needless expense and. engender bitterness by local fights, when by your act, car rying out the will of the majority orttie people, you can settle this matter at this session? "rass the law, let it go nito eNect July 1. 1908, and before the gene election in .November all agitation will cease: for, as well said bv one of North Carolina's wisest states men. "A liquor dealer without his iquor is about as weak as Sampson shorn of his locks." Refuse at this session to dispose of it, it will enter nto the next campaign, be the is- i i sue in many counties, ana cause confusion and strife; whereas by ac tion now you may destroy the fac- or that would make this agitation. "There is onlv one question for. 1 1 A 1 us to ass, ana mat is, what is right? And when we know what is right, let us have the courage to do he right, and what is right will prove what is Doth expeaient ana jest, and will receive the approval of all good citizens. All know the whiskey traffia is an evil. We talk of the wrongs of a protective tariff, the ills and crimes engendered by monopolies and trusts, bnt all the evils and iniquities f the tariff, or the robberies and oppressions of greed and monopoly together do not begin to compare with the sor row, the ruin the misery, the crime the poverty, the madness, the vice, the degradation, the death and the damnation produced by strong drink; and, therefore, in the inter est of business, .for the protection of helpless women and children, for. the suppression of crime, the am elioration of want and poverty, the prevention ef disease, the. preserva tion of life and the salvation of human souls, in the name of more than a million true, brave, pure and noble North Carolina men- women and children. I ask yon at this ses sion to abolish this demon of de struction! If you do this, your act will be the wisest and best ever passed by any legislative body, and will be ratified and endorsed by the good people of the State. But, whether yon follow my suggestion or notJ will always feci tharno act that I ever did was mere for the uplifting and nobuildmgof the en tire State than uiy message for State prohibition. a visit from him To this seeker, Jesus talks readily. Teaching him as a sinner, one who is sincere and honest in the search for truth, Jesus tells him that the kingdom of God, which he is to bring to men, is for those changed in heart. This change is the work of God. A new birth, without which man cannot even undet stand the true kingdom of God on earth. This new birth, this new creation, is of the Spiritthe work of the Holy Spirit. Jesus tells Nicodemus, in the explanation,- that, every man has two sides, that of the flesh, and that of the Spirit. One, the spiritual comes from the Spirit of God. The other is the fleshly in heritance Continuing, Jesus re minds his visitor that wo are to look for evidences of the Spiritual life in its effects. John 3:5, is that of Hovey. One (the new birth) stands at the beginning of the inward life, and the other (baptism) at the be ginning of our corresponding out ward life. And therefore Jesus could say with the utmost pro priety: "You must confess me in an openly prescribed way which you are not willing to do and you must also be the subject of a great spiritual change, or you can not enter my kingdom.' " Ncodemus isjionestly confused. Jesus illustrates with the incident of the brazen serpent. Just so, does God- raise His Son, Jesus Faith is so accepting Christ that we trust him for the pardon of sins; we trust him so that we are willing to be taught and led by him. Faith , is the act of choosing God as our God, of devoting our lives to Him, opening our. hearts to his influence. To do this is. the beginning of salvation; for this life is salvation." Luther callwf John 3:10 "Little Gospel" or the "Little Bible." In truth it is the whole gosjel, tho whole Bible condensed in these few words. With this one verse the world may bo brought fd Christ and life.
