Washington Jan. 30.—Presi dent Roosevelt added another chapter to-day to hia at term nee* on marriage and divorce. Thi* time it waa in the form of an official menage to Congreu ip the interest of securing uniform laws on the subject. The mes sage was the outcome of the ap peal made to him on Friday by a committee of the Proteatact Episcopal church, headed bv Bishop Doaue of Albany. In the message the President said: "I cal) attention of the Con . gress to the fact that no statistics have been collected by l be Federal Government upon the subject of marriage and divorce since the year 1886, and that but few of the Stairs have made provision for the collection of such statistics. "The institution ot marriage Is, of course, si the very foun dation of our social organiza tion, and all influences that affect that in>titution are of vital concern to the people of the whole country. There is a wide-spread conviction that the divorce laws arc dangerously lax in some of the States, resulting in a diminishing regard lor the sanctity of the marriage relation. "The hope is entertained that there may be enacted upon the subject of marriage and divorce uniform laws containing all possible safeguards for the security of the family. Intelli gent and prudent action in that direction will be greatly pro moted by securing reliable and trustworthy statistics on mar riage and divorce. 1 deem the matter of snfficient general im portance to recommend that tbe Director of tbe Census be authorized by appropriate legis lation to collect and publish statistics pertaining to that subject, covering the period from 1886 to the present lime.” Editor Carl Hammer of the Salisbury Sun was assaulted in his office Tuesday night by Mr. J. P. Sheehan, master mechanic of the Spencer shoos of the Southern. The trouble resulted from an article in the Sun in reference to the Spencer shops. / ——— . .in —r -- ——m UNO COUf IS THE LEADEl.

Cora it king by a good lift majority in this country, ac cording to the Sad report of the.Boreaq of Statiatlca of the Department o< Agriculture. Not only was the 1904 ernp of sack vast proportions.that it has been exceeded but twice, bm the high prices at which it was marketed made a new record for its aggregate value. The record corn crop of the country was produced in 1899, when the official returns credited a total oi 2,666,440,000 bushels, lo 1902 the government placed the figures at 2,523,648,000 bushels. Last year the Agricultural De partment figures show a vield of 2.467,480.009 bushels, but on ac count of the Increase in prices its market value was $70,000,000 greater than the crop of 1902, wrhich until that year had held the record for value. raiMtns a( ■ Wa <1 Awar4imam4 on the 1904 wheel crop show a marketable value greater than lor 1901, althnngh the crop is nearly *00,000.000 bushels lea. than for that record year. Io this respect there is far leas cause (or Congratulation than there ia over the excellent show ing made by the corn crop The dimensions of the yield of the coarser cereal were so far above the average that in sup plying business for transports: tion co a ponies, warehousemen, and numerous other industries dependent on the grain trade, much of the Iona through a poor wheat crab was equalised. In the case of wheat the abnormal ly high price was not an un qualified blessing. While the gross returns woicb were di vided among the farmers and speculators were several million dollars greater than ever before, a much smaller proportion of the population of the country waS benefited by these prices than was the case with corn. The shortage made heavy • in roads oa the profits of some of the roads traversing the Amer ican wheat belt, and capital, th*s suffering, psssed the blow on to labor by laying off train crews and reducing operating expenses, so that dollar wheat this time was at the expense of the American people and not i i do* to 4 any strength la the foreign markets, which in all previous ieaaons have bees the prime factors in elevating price*. Despite the constantly in* creasing demand for corn as a food product, and an increase in the home consumption due to the short crop and high prices of, wheat, the decline in corn and high prices of wheat, the decline iu corn shipments was far from being so pronounced as that of wheat. American corn shippers arc thus holding their foreign trade much better than wheat and il<ntr exporters. -rwmr OM Notice In rromlneet teothrrn Piyw e» Isterut to OtMsto ImKwU.

It if learned that the molu ttoo introduced in the Sooth Carolina legislature to uemoria* Use congress for the repeal of the fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States, in order to get rid of the pcnmliring clause thereof failed to pass.

It is generally conceded by constitu tional lawyers (hat the fifteenth amendment killed the o b nordou* feature of its prede cessor. and that the former can not he enforced, because it can not be established that any where the right of citizens to vote baa been denied on ac count of race, color or previous condition of servitude.
