Last July Judge Charles H. Simon- ton, of the United States court, heard tat Asbeville the argument iu the caso . Of tho Uonsack Machine Company and the American Tobacco Company against W. F. Smith and other North Carolina cigarette men. The twit was for in fiingement of the Bonsack cigarette machine patentB by tho Briggs mi iliiut, invented Ly V. C. Eriggf, of Winston, N. C. The judge has ren dered au opinion, in which it is ad judged that the Priggs machine is not an infringement, and tho bill was dis missed with coats. , This decision is against the trust, sn called. Heretofore the' American to bacco Company, which has the excla bho right to the Bonsack machines, under contract with a yearly royalty of a quarter of a million dollars, has been, it is claimed, able to control th market prices for bright tobacco If Judge Simonton's decision stands, tbe market will be open to the anti- trust rflhehine, and manufacturers outside the trust will be able to oompete from tho purchase cf the tobacco to the sale of tho cigarette. In course of his decision Judge Simonton said: "Cigarettes are not an article of prime necessity: Indeed their use, if not always deleterfcnS.can scarcely be said to be beneficial. The public mind has been aroused to abus es following their introduction in im " mense quantities on the market and rrany of the states have enacted laws looking to their suppression. There , . can be no reason for the interference of the courts Ui securing their uninter rupted manufacture, notwithstanding the existence of patent rights." Trees Killed by Drought The drought has killed A very great number of trees in the woods. Oaks have suffered, particularly the smaller ones on uplands. The aggregate loss is lare. In a trip from Raleigh to Lincolnton this death of the tret can' be seen. Strange to say in the sandy lands the oaks stood the drought better than tbey did on the clay lands. A Turpentine. CyVHlery Burned. Tht tnrpentino'distillery of Brissen & Johnston 20 miles from Fayetteville, was bnfned Thursday. Nineteen hun dred barrels of rosin, spirits and crude, were consumed. 'Total loss, two thousand dollars; no insurance, - A (10,000 Fire nt Newborn. One of the mills and one dry house of the Blade Lumber Company, New bern, were burned Friday morning. Xhe loss is $10,000; no insurance. The fire was accidental. Caldwell county has a mighty hun ter in the person of Mr. Geo. V. Tay lor, pow about 70 years old. This is a list of the things he has killed iu his lifetime, as furnished by the Lenoir . : Topic: 40 deer, 100 wild turksye, 12 V ground hogs, 15,000 squirrel 1,000 ' rabbits, 600 'possums, 50 coons, 500 crows, 400 hawks, 50 owls, 6 minks, 100 muskrats and 40 pheasants. The Dickson-Mason Lumber Com . ' pany has bought 280 acres near Black Mountain aud will begin at once put ting up a locust insulator pin factory with a capacity of 12,000 to 15,000 pins a day. Next summer the compn . uy will establish a Htr. planing mil at the same place, the tottl investnn t being $15,000 to 820,000. Tbe coi. pany's main oflice is Ashtville. - Mr. John J. Dunlap, of Paris, lost , a cotton house containing 25 or 26 bales of cotton, some oata, corn and rye, by fire Thursday night. The loss is estimated at between 82,100 and $2, 500, with no insurance. Tie origin of the fire is not known. All tobacco which was Handing' in tbe fields in the Durham s-ction was ruined by the frosts of last teek. For tunately only a small perientage of the crop was standing. Thi heaviest loss in this section is to the sweet po tato crop. j . The cotton market. at Bjleigh, on -' Monday, made another jumj and sold jf at 9 cents. The receipts aere fifty bales, and on Saturday 317 bles. Cot ton men think there will be iccasioual reactions on the market, bit that it will go still higher. Mr. W. E. Jeffrey's paeibouw at Bocky Mount with $5,000 worth of leaf tobacco was accidental? burned on Thursday. Insuran;e $3 )00. Eeports are still coming inj boot ce ris damage don to tob'"cy frost.

The lumber trad6 in North Carolina is deserving of careful consideration. It has been growing rapidly during the past two decades, and already serious inroads have been made on our forests supplies. Our timber trade is developing olong much the same line as that in other Southern States, except tha wd are making largor uses of the loblolly and Bap pino, which is indeed, now known on the market as, North Caro lina pine. - For many years much of our timber has been shippod out of the State id the log to be manufactured elsewhere. In tho northeastern counties many thousands of logs aro annually ship ped to Norfolk, and to other points to bo put through tho siw mill and tun planing mill, and in the tVcsterii cduii ties of tho Kbite, mftuy thousands of hard wood logs are annually floated down the streams into Tennessee. This custom results ia great loss to the State, and there appears to be no way to prevent it exoopt by ettcdurdgirig the; lonhoii of saw mills aud planing mills; and other manufacturing estab lishmcnts within the boarders of the State, and this should bo done in every possible way. The value of the crude lumber pro duced in tho State during the past year, was about as follows!

In tho eastern counties, at tbe present rate of cutting, in less than two decades our sup- inns oi pine win nave Doen cximupteci, ana the Rreat hard wood forests of the I'iedmont and mountain counties will in the same lime have been out, or purchased by the mill den and hold by them as reserve supplies. The sooner, then, that our people can be brought to abandon tbe long prevailing belief that they have more timber than they know what to do with, and consequently are willing to almost give It away) And the sooner they can ha brought to realize the fact that the valuable supplies Of timber which tbey are now selling to the mill meil at tho low pri-es, ennnot be replaced In their day and (feneration) lha sooner they come to understand that under our present system of cutting tlmlier, they not only use up the supply belonging to the present generation, but iu destroying the young growth of the frosts they nro destroying the birth-right of the next generation, without any additional return to themselves, the sooner will It be sissiVj to liavo adopted a wise and con servative policy which, while it permits the i:so of the mature timber of today, It also l-resorves the young forest growth, which is to be the timber supply of to-morrow. Let us understand, then, that our present timber supply is not inexhaustible; that in many places it has already been nearly or quite removed; that iu cutting the mature trees with characteristic recklessness, we are nlso destroying in a large measure the young forest growth; that at the present rate of eutting, our forest supplies can last but few decades longer; that in the use of our forests we should do everything possible to encourage tbe development within the State of lumber manufacturing establishments, In order that our lumber nay be manufactured ut home; and that in cutting our forests every eflort should be made to protect the young tree growth J.

If I wos running a soap factory id hell aud tbey brought along your car cass, I'd tell'cm I had nothing td dcodoirze such a carcass. A horse thief is a gentleman beside the man that votes for liquor.

Tbe trouble ia above bcr eyes. I promfscfl my wife to take care bf ht r husband and I'm going to do it. If you con put up with fourteen sr.!cona the year round, you've got to put up with me a week. You go around and drink whiskey and "say it's nobody's business. You are a liar, you scoundrel, you. If they'd put you up in an anhhopper and pour water over you, you'd drip lye yon dirty dog; you. " If you preachers will hold while I skin, we'll make bides go down in this market. - Nobcdy but an infernal fool will drink whiskey, nobody but a disreput able person will sell it, and nono but a damnable town will license it. What have you preachers been do ing? Shoot, Luke, or give up your gr.u. I'm going to tell you the truth if you lick me. three times a day and sond my body home in a coffin to my wife and children. I used to think preachers had wings but they niu't. I saw one once with his cont off. They w asn't even bnd ding. , I don't abuse any other denomina tion except the Methodist. Don't have time. When I get through with them it's bed time. Some church members prsy, "Lord turn your guns on tho enemy," If He did He miht kill your o!'V fjisfc lonabli ".;JAW hrb't, 'ifiirig. When you see a member of tbe church go into a saloon ho belongs to ihe devil from suont lo tail. There is nothing the devil brngs on more than a woman going around or ganizing progressive euchre patties. Tbe old rascal that goes' into the Fn'ooiis will go uuy aud say, "I don't like Sam Jones." I'm sorry for the preachers, trying to do anything with the gang they've got. There isn't a lower, dirtier thing on the face of the earth than a saloon. A Christian has no business there. Church people are cowards by train ing aud teaching. If there was a pro hibition fight here, one old bulluecked saloon keeper could take a fuhly piUol and run the church members out of town. There is no quarrel between Sam Jones and any consscrated Christian, whether ho be young or old, high or low, white or black. . Methodists are like patent medicines have to shake 'em before using. It's a digraco to come to a town like Winston and find people who have dono quit the church. Old brother quitter and old sister quitter. If yen are a quitter and don't feel like a dog you don't feel natural. Methodists believe they crii lose their religion. Baptists don't, but if they can't lots of 'em never .had any to lose, Presbyterians know they can't lose it, but are afraid they ain't got it.

The Methodists here pay their pas tor $1800, and tho Baptists $1200. Guess that's about tbe right propor tion. Yon see yon can ship one-third cheaper by water.

At this juncture Dr. B. D.

WASHINGTON LETfFBrf Will Public Opinion or cite Politicians' Control the Next Congress. The Liberty BeU. B7 Oar Regular Correapondent W1U public opinion or the politicians con trol the action of Congress at the coming session? In view of recent opinions ezpress t i by politicians this question is both perti neti and important; If the politlcsns have their way the publlo demand,- Which te well rllgh general; regardless of politics,- thai dc grass Shall do something for the bettermient of tho country's" finances and for the preven tion of the Issue of more btfrid") for tbe nloney sharks, will be ignored, and CongrearlolMl legislation be virtually confined to the regu lar" appropriation bills. The argument of the politiaJans IS that it Will be impossible fdr Congress to pass a'liy ftnaiic'Ial legislation, beoauso d bid that the RopUbllcaU Hoilse" would pass could not get through the SeiK ate, which will' be controlled by neither party; owing to next year Presidential campaign1 find the consequent dnwln of party lines on all liriportitrit legislation. To accept that argument is to declare to the world that patriotism has been driven tfdt of Congress by partisanship, and that the fear of a loss of Votes id the Presidential election outweighs the demands of the people at litrgs' for financial legislation. The great mass of the people do not care a snap for partisan ship, although most men are for one or another reason connected with a political party and during an exciting campaign be come partisans to a certain extent. But When there is no campaign, on the masses are far more interested in earning a living than in partUaaship; They have learned to their cost that our present system1 of flnariod imposes unnecessary burdens upon the earn ing Of that livelihood; They want those burdens removed, and are not likely to be satisfied with the politicians exouse tliat Congress cannot legislate because of parti sanship. Next year there will be another Congress elected as well as a President. That fact should not escape the politicians minds. Although some of the members of the Sons of the Revolution, the Sons of the American Revolution and the Daughters of the Ameri can Revolution are inclined to be fussy and big-headed and to make monkeys of them selves upoil occasion, as a whole those or ganizations are doing the country good, particularly in the work they are doing to wards Increasing and fostering patriotism in our schools, a field which had been, especial ly in our large cities, largely neglscted be fore it was taken up by these organizations, and which '. bound to have an Important bearing upon the future of our country. i .1 1. .. ;i,. liiu.1-. .

It is well that all of us should occasionally stop In our mad rush and brush up our patriotism a little. It's a thing that no people can have too much of. C. F. fi Y. V. Ry. TOHK GILL, Bcceivor.
