CAMPAIGN COMMENT. The President Very Beer. \ru.-nlnr<m Mlimair The president will be too busy up to November 8th to pass upon tbe question whether a white tnnn should he dismissed from the army for marrying a negro woman. Welle Lew Sella the Ceeatry Peeplt. Cbatltr and Children. "The argument that the Watts law discriminates against the country people, will fall as flat as a barn door, for the country peo ple are tbe ouca who rejoice at its eflects. A farmer would be a fool to get mad at a measure that would rid his farm of rattle snakes. Bepehltcaa Eslrayagaace. Henry Darrii. Letter ol Acceptance. The expenditures of the government are increasing at an alarming rate. When the present administration went into power there waa a large surplus, but notwithstanding tbe enormous tax ation, the revenues therefrom are not now adequate to meet the demands made hy reckless appropriations. Exhart the raapla fa Tara Oat. Xal'lab K«niiu Yimr. The danger is not that the Republican party will gain any ad ditional strength, but that the Democrats may lose by our people failiog to go to the election. Of course, plenty will be there to carry to the State by a good large majority, but the State wants to maintain its normal majority. * * * To induce voters to turn out on election day ought to be the harden of the speeches from now till the campaign closes. Sraaf Majority Favor Temperance. CbarHr MS Chi 1dm. The next time the campaign is pitched all the parties will be on the temperance side. The great majority of the white folks of North Carolina are in favor of temperance, gentlemen, and we thank the Lord that this is true. You need never fear that you will offend the country people l»y taking liquor away from them. They are not fools, though some of you wily old foxes thought they were. You know better uow. Desptsas the Ways sf Paaca. ChatloUc Observer. The spectacle of President Roosevelt, the very god of war, the despiser of the plans of fair, delightful peace, suggesting mediation in order to bring the Japanese-Russian wax to an end, is one for gods and men. If there is one thing that the president dislikes more than another it is a quiet time and if there should come in bis day the time when men shall break their swords into plow-shares and their spears into pruning hooks, he would not care to live longer. The littli Against Wrong Is Never Over. Juntph W. Folk. t( Sprincfteli!. Mo. Everything that is good must be (ought for; the bad will take care of itself. The difference between virtue and vice, troth and falsehood, is the same as between the wheat that i* sown and the thorns that grow wild on the highway. The useful grain must be protected and nurtured, whHe the thistle will flourish anywhere. So it is in government snd private affairs. The battle against wrong is never over, the fight for the right is never quite finished. Eternal vigilance is ever the price of liberty. Vaals a PraaMaat Who (aspects Law. Ricbmoad N«w*-L**(Wr. The country is tired of swagger, rowdyism snd bluster and cheap heroics, cowboy statesmanship and rough-rider antics and gasconade in bifgh places. The natural diguity and propriety of the people revolt against having this great republic poaed before the world as the great international bully and awash-hncklcr. The people want some of the quiet, dignified, seH-rcHaht courage which does not vaunt itself continually nor go about picking quarrels and looking for uonblc. It wants somebody at the bead of its affairs who respects law, who can be trusted, who will b« a safe, fearlessa, sober ami conservative leader. For that reason we believe public sentiment will turn rapidly from Roosevelt to Parker. A Striking Comparison. Haltlah Yon. In bis speech nt Greensboro Friday night Hon. Prank S. Spruill shot the following.Ted hot from bin splendid magazine of eloquence: "Thomas Jefferson comes walking down the shining aisles of history, bearing in one hand the title deeds of tbe Louisiana pur chase. end in the other hand the Declaration of Independence and the constitution of this great republic. The Republican party emerges from the mists sod clonds of its nefarious transaction with Spain, bearing in one hand the title deeda of the Philippines purchase, and in tbe other hand the blood-stained sword and smoking gun of tbe tyrant and oppressor." No more striking comparison of two political parties has been made, and no more polished sentences have been uttered in the campaign. Row Near We Are te Wlaaia*. MlrtwMMl Thm^lMW. 2»,vrl. Pa/ker alerts with the solid South end with chances very much in his favor in Maryland. A Democratic gain over 1890 of 1,400 in California, 1,800 in Delaware, 9,100 In Indiana, ISO in Kentucky, 1.100 In Oregon and 0,000 in West Virginia, with New York, will elect Parker, to any nothing of the poealMlities in /Wisconsin, where the Republican split seems to be beyond best ing, and in the Pacific States. Cosisldering these facts, we can find do basis for the mach.heralded proclamations of Republican confidence nor lor Democratic despondency. Tbs Democratic party cerfsiuly ia very much nearer to be a solid and united orean oitaUoo than it was in 1890. NotwUhatandlng the ranting? of Tom Watson, alt the Indications are that the party win loee mJb less from the defection of silver men than it did from the desertion of fold mea eight years ago. The truth la that all the Republican boasting Is campaign buncombe. DANOEt IN VIOLENT EXEICISE Timely Cantina ts Participant! in Pierce Athletic Oamea. Rslilmoi* N'n, How that the Student! all over the country are in the midat ol bard training for athletic games, »m« of the utmost violence, the opinion of medical expert* upon the effect of violent exer cise on growing persons is eipeciallv timely. The opinion oi the doctors upon this point was emphasised at the recent meeting of the American Medi cal Association at Atlantic City. Doctors are pretty generally agreed that violent exercise seriously affects the health of growing persons. It is a notori ous fact that great athletes as a rule are not loug-liyed. Aa they arrive at full age with especially vigorous • constitutions they might be expected to live to be much older than the average healthy person. Bnt such is not the case. They sacrifice longevity by the effort required in their contests and in the training preparatory thereto. it ip a tuecicai maxim that men are a* old at their arteries. If ooc'a arteries abow degene ration, however Jew one’s years, he is becoming an old man. On the other hand, while bis arteries retain tbeir original elasticity and lieslth the man ia •till young, no matter bow many years he may have the circula tion of the blood and cause many years of life. Physician* generally agree lost the great canse of arterial degeneration is bard physical labor. Thia ia especially true of labor among growing children. If the boy between fifteen and twenty is obliged to exert hi* physical powers to the utmost he is pretty snre to initiate arterial degeneration. When the boy U forty or forty-five bis arteries begin to thicken, become rigid and tortuous. They (ail to per foim their function iu au undue tsx upon tl»e heart, with the result of heart' disease or senil ity- The initiatory impnlae in this case has probably been given in youth by violent exer cise. Great feats of strength ot wearing physical iabor forces the blood into the arteries until it distends them. Sometimes it means a lesion and sudden ureas oown ui rough aneurism or heart trouble. If this effect docs not follow it starts the de teriorarion of the arteries, which finally ends in degeneration. Thousands of >ouug boys who are obliged to engage in severe physical labor for a living omat pay the penalty by premature age. There is no help for them. Rut with college athletes it is optional whether they shall shorten their lives for a little brief prowess on tbe field. If medical men are right, they will snrely do so liy hard training aud violent physical exercise. Th* Oritffs Bsimfoa. There will be a great renuion of the Grigg families near r«awnds!e in Cleveland county on Thanksgiving day. Mr. J. Walter Grigg and others have published in the Shelby Star tbe following unique invitation: Griggs yoong and Griggs oM. Griggs timid and Grigg* bold. Griggs mat and Griggs small.

Since Alexander at Macedon broke into Asia and found it. aa the angry King of Spiros after wards Mid. "the women’s apart* ment” of the world, there baa been no expedition so pictor* esque, so daring, or so un expectedly free, up to the present time, from loss as this invasion of Tibet. It is more like the adventure which chil dren love as "Jack and the Bcanetalk” than any ever re corded by grave historians. Co]. Youugliusband, Gen. Macdonald, and their followers have ascended into the clouds, have found a vast platean of 11.000 feet, on an average, above the sea level, studded with even loftier hills, defended by a brave people, ruled by a mighty ogre, who, as the British soldier* ad vanced, continually roared at them to retire and now and then threw stones. The cool • e vnlnmr nauae fltsaataa:... W..s never dismayed, trampled on end on over passes higher than Moot Blue; through villages in which each bouse was a potential fortress; over a river which took six days to cross, and at last reached a green paradise, bidden in hills sur rounding the secret cHy where the visitor perceives at first nothing but palaces ud ■cathedrals" with "golden domes," the huge stone mon asteries In which Dalai t^lma and his monks resided, and amid a reverential population, accumulate treasure and it is to be hoped, some wisdom. Col. Votinghusband, who had explored Manchuria on ponies, knew well that Moogols were not cowards, and had no proof whatever that the men, who with nothing but spears and swords met our Gboorkas hand to-hand did not know in the least how to avail themselves of their natural advantages or were unwilling to do so. The idea in liia camp was that Russia bad arpicd the Tibetans, and that thousands of warriors might come in from the frontier provinces to die in defease of their pope. Had the idea been correct, the mission might have been destroyed. Gyangtse _i_ <_ s . - wvvu UVMIUjrcu. GyangtA* might have been a Saragossa. Tbe pass of Karo-la and soother pass beyond it could not have been carried if defended, aay, by z.000 Japa nese: while Lasts itself was swarming with fanatic Lamas, who, had they possessed that imaginary Russian arsenal, might in one mad rush have de stroyed half the advancing force, and then refused food to the re mainder. Those Possibilities, which were disenssed every day among the members of tbe expedition, made no difference to the quiet soldier-diplomatist, tbe much contemned Indian "political*’— no more difference than the smiling protests of the envoys from Lasaa or the threats of toe incarnate Buddha. He had his orders to make peace in Lassa, and to Lassa he went on. Raw Many WiR Vata la Oaafaa? For best estimate $25 in gold; next beat $15; next $10.

Price is bear ish on cotton. Mr. Price baa been so absolutely right on the market for the past six months that he has succeeded in re-es tablishing his prestige as an authority on tbe market, and therefore what be has to say is of more than ordinary interest. His reasons are in part a* fol lows: , ti tlH__ .a___L«a« . b •. . * MIV hviiu « If IMUIC MIDI ply of A meric an cotton at the end of the find six full weeks pi the season is the largest of the past five years, and actually the largest ever canid in the his tory of the trade at this time ol the year at over f» cents pet pound. "That the stocks of cotton ol the United States ports and in terior towns at the end ot the sixth full areek of the season an the largest of the past five yean with one exception, when they were exceeded by only 10.00C bales, and they are actually thi largest stocks ever carried in the history of tba trade at this time of the year at above 9 cent! per pound. "That aa compared with tbi quantity of cotton that hat come into sight during the firs' six full weeks of the season trade takings ora relatively thi smallest of the peat tan yaara baing only per taut., m against 48.2 per cent, last year and ffi.fi par east, in the year 6 record consumption.” .
