Treasurer Worth Issue an Order
io Sheriffs.
The following letter waa lent oat
today by the state treasurer:
"It hs come to my knowledge that
Main peraona, reaidenta of other
suvs, bare recently come Into North
t urolina, and claiming to be pro
tected by the U. 8 law relative to
inter-state commerce, are peddling
rangea from house to house in wagons,
without peddlers license, in open
violation and defiance of law.
"Their mode of doing business is
this: The manufacturer in another
state ships to bia agents by railroad
to a certain railroad point in this
state, hla ranges in car load lota and
establishes in thia state a local supply
depot or place of storage for his
ranges In bulk, and then through his
agents sends oat first a wagon with
what is culled a "sample range," to
be followed up when he gets an order
by another agent who delivers at the
house of the purchaser by retail trade,
a similar range taken from the local
supply depot or headquarters estab
lished the by manufacturer in this state
beforehand for puddling purposes.
In other words, the.non-resideut man
ufacturer for purposes of sale on his
iad a.'couut, ships hia iroods into
North Carolina in car-load lots by
aU It-sale and afterwards breaks bulk
aud retails or peddles them out in
wagons from bouse to house to pur
ebasers, under a claim of exemption
from our liceuse tax, as carrying on
inter-state commerce.
"The sample wagon dodge is a mere
device or subterfuge, to try tp evade
the reddler's tax and break down the
business of our own merchants, who
could not themselves as residents
of our state do the same busi
ness without a peddler's license
"Watch out. for peddlers who go in
wagons as well as for him who carries
a pauk on his back. And if you find
a peddler of any sort doing peddler's
business in your county without a li
ceuse, go to a justice of the peace who
has final jurisdiction of such offenoe,
gj j j under section 37. schedule B, and have
hi in punished for a misdemeanor, and
also take out a warrant before'the jus
tice of the peace for the $fiO penalty
t'or the benefit of the schoo1 func".
Remember, too, that each act of ped
ling without license is a distinct and
eparate off'-nse.'V . '

The centennial of the opening of
the state university was celebrated
here today in very handsome style.
Despite the intensely hot weather
there is a large assemblage here, and
the interest and enthniasm are mark
ed. Today waa giveu up to the alumni,
who in recent yean have had a "day"
at commencements and whose interest
in the university has thereby been
deepened. The day's programme was
attractive. The great area of the
campus, with its grand trees and
buildings and its acres of bright
green lawn, was dotted with people
by 10 o'clock and half an hour later
the exercises began.
First a procession formed in front
of the old "south building," which
was constructed in 1795, and this pro
cession, made op of alumni old and
young, made its way across the camp
us to the monument over the grave of
Dr. Joseph Caldwell, the university's
first president. The procession march
ed arouud the monument and also
around the "big poplar," the most no
table tree in all tlie campus, and then
went to memorial hall.
In this stately and unique structure
a great audience was assembled. The
exercises then were opened with
prayer, and then all present united
in singing the centennial hymn, spe
cially written by that devoted friend
of the university, Mrs. Cornelia Phil
lips Spencer. The siuging was led by
the university glee club, with aocom-
painent by the band of the first Vir
ginia regiment which had also beaded
tie procession. The airs was the good
old one of "R siu, the Beau," and
he words were as follows:
Come forth with your garlands and
roses,
Bnt vined with the laurel and bay,
All that fair Carolina encloses
Be ours this festival day.
All Hail ! to oar glorious old mother,
H- century's crown is complete,
With loyalty do to no other,
Our homage we lay at her feet.
Thn' dimly her moruing unfolded,
And tempests oft darkened bersky.
Still, ti all the true hearts she has
moulded.
Her colors In radiance fly.
Still she welcomes her sons to her por
tals,
Her cloisters re-echo their tread,
Whiles witnessing cloud of immor
tals
Drop honor and strength on her
head.
All the dove that religion has taught
us,
All that freedom and culture be-
stow,
All renown that our heroes have
brought us,
To her century's vigil we oe.
Fond memory recalls her gray Teacb-
era
Intent on their labor of love.
Her poets, her statesmen, her Preach
... era
In temple, and forum, ond grove.
Ye sons of fair science still cherish
A spark from the spirit divine,
Ne'er a hope for our country shall
perish
Wherever His watch-fires shine.
For oft as a noble endeavor
Points oat where our brothers have
trod,
To His altars we trce the fair river
That gladdens the city of God.
Long, long. may this fountain be flow
ing,
Carolina be honored and blest.
The lights on this hill-top be glow
- ing, .
While centuries pass to their rest.
Then hail I to ourgloriour old mother,
Allegiance we pledge her anew,
With homage we pay to no-other,
All Hail ! to the White and the
. Blue.;
The first oration of the day was then
delivered. It was by Hon. Alfred
Moore 'Waddell, whose oration at Ral
eigh, May 20, at the unveiling of the
confederate monument, was so widely
praised. His theme was "The old uni
versify, 1705 1800," and he well sus
tained hie high reputation as a
speaker. After the singing of the een
tennial ode, written by James D.
Lynch, Adolphus H. Eller, of Win
ston, delivered the second oration, his
subject being "The new university,
1875-1805." His speech was full of
information and showed cleverly the
high character of the work the uni
versity is doing. The centennial son
net, by Jerome Stockard. well-known
as a writer of verse, was next heard.
In the afternoon the alumni gather
ed by elaaaes at the gymnasium and
there sat down to the centennial
alamni banquet Hnndreda were
present and the interior of the build
ing waa beautiful with the "blue and
white" of the university's colors.
There were both formal and informal
toaats and many speakers. The af
fair did not end nntil 6 o'oclock.
The univeraity trustees confer hon
orary degrees of doctor of laws on
Richard B. Battle, W. T. Fain-loth,
D. U. Fnrches, Thomas M. Holt, W.
A. Montgomery, Alfred M. Waddell
and Mrs. Cornelia Phillips Spencer.
The doctor of divinity on A. D. Belts,
J. S Davis, A. L. Phillips and Robert
Strange.
H. Home and F. L. Carr won the
highest honors in tbegraduating class.
The oldest class representative is H.
C. McCaulee, f class of 1838.
Hinton James, the great grandson
of Hinton James, who entered th- uni
versity in 1795, was introduced to the
audience by presideut Winston.
The audience sang "Old Hundred"
and Rev. A. D. Betts grayed.
At 8 o'clock this evening iu the me
morial hall there will be another
great audience to hear the addresses
by Henry A. London on "The univer
sity during the war," and by Dr.
Stephen B. Weeks en "The university
alumni in the war." The reunions of
the classes follow these addresses, the
the roll of each to be called and tbe
members present to go on the plat
form in a body. Each class waa allot
ted a few minutes, and in some cases
uonsiderable time, in order to carry
out ihe special programmes.

A Suggestion.
A lady who was born and raised in
Raleigh and who is devoted to her na
tive state, has come hereon a visit and
she, as well as every one else is de
lighted with the beautiful monument.
Hut she makes a suggestion and
which it seems would meet the ap
proval of every one.
Just at the end of the battle of Ap
pomatox when Lee saw no other
alternative but to surrender, a bril
liant charge was made, and he turn
ing, asked who it was that had made
it, "Gen. Grimes' N. C. division" was
tbe answer. Then the grand R, E.
Lee taking off his hat saluted the di
vision and said "God bless old North
Carolina, she is always where we
want her."
Vow the suggestion is this: There
is room around the base of thismnnu.
ment for "God bless old North Caro
Una, she is always where we want
her R. B Lee" to be carved and
it is earnestly .-hoped that the testi
mony of Gen. Lee, to the valor and
bravery of North Carolina soldiers,
will be perpetuated in granite to all
eternity. ' ' "
ANDREWS' OPERA COMPANY.
Shall we Have a Week of High
Class Opera or Not ?
Shall we have the opera season V
Tbat is the question which is agitat
ing the Raleigh musical circles just
at this time, and well it may. Two
delightful operas selected from such
gums as "The Pretty Persian," "Fra
Diavolo," "Martha," "Falka," "Iolan
the," "Tro votore," etc. , would in
deed be a rich treat for our music-
lovers, and why not lave it? Other
cities no larger than Raleigh have
their opera season or music festival
regularly every year. Yet it is
doubtful if any city of this size in the
country can boast of so high a degree
of rausioal culture as can Raleigh.
This is manager Meares' initial at
tempt at an opera season and here's
hoping that he will succeed.
Our peopU can have it if they want
it not only this soason but every
succeeding season. We hope every
oue who feels an interest in these mat
ters will take the question up per
sonally and leave his name for a com
mutation book. On this plan the cost
of the entiee season will be merely
nominal.
