' Difference of Oplnloa the FertUI- ler Bill. Too late to turn 1 Back From Impeachment, j Some Say. Poo back From Washington. Raleigh, Feb. 0. The attorney gen eral and the State perlntendent - of pabllc Instruction are continuing tbelr Inquiry into the status of the State's "swamp lands." They find that the option on these to K. 8. Finch o( Char lotte, which would have expired this month was renewed last December (or a year, and is on 869,000 acres of snr Teyed lands. Much of these lands are finely timbered. The option carries the right to sell in blockfof a thousand acres. There Is much nnsutreyed land also. The new officials express regret .that there is an option. The State today chartered the Lock land mills, at Scotland Neck, with 10,- 000 paid up capital; O. T. Andrews and others stockholders. The mills will make hosiery and underwear, and have the privilege of Increasing capital to $50, 000. 1 RepreaentatWe McLean, the author of the bill to allow the penitentiary to make fertilizers, esya he believes prices can in this way be reduced $1 to a ton aud a saving of five million dollars to the people of the Slate effeoted. He it in favor of making an experiment at first and if It succeeds of doing a great business, which he says will keep money in the Slate. He appears to be sanguine of the passage of the bill, which comes up next Tuesday with a unanimously favorable report. Other persons saythe bill has no chance of passing. Several leading Democratic legislators said this this morning there was no disposition to inforce the extreme penalty, disfranchisement, npon the Judges If the latter are convicted. A democratic official remarked today that while It might have been Impolitic to have begun the matter It was Impossible now to tu.fl back; that the oonstutllonal amenilmont is In jeopardy and if we do not go on with the Impeachment matter 1 he amendment is gone. A legislator says that the Judges regard the lelegram of "sympathy" sent them by Senator Prltchard and Con gressman Llnery and Peason as the harden blow struck at them In this vfhule matter. Stale auditor Dixon, who has had a ievere attack of grippe, is better, 4ecrtary' of State Grimes who had the disease In an acute form is out again. Capl. CM.

ImTy a C- Grippe by As soon as any one is attacked with la grippe Peruna should be taken every two hoars daring the day adults a4 tablespoonful, children a teaspoonful. But It is the after-effects of la grippe which are generally the most serious unless Peruna is taken. In all cases where Peruna is taken as above daring the acute stage the recovery is prompt and complete; but whererthe ordinary treatment is followed the patient will complain for weeks and monthsof weak ness, slight headache, want of appetite, and many other symptoms of low vi tality. Such people should begin at once the use of Peruna a tablespoonful before each meal, gradually increasing the dose to two tablespoonfnls. Mrs. Theophlle Schmitt, wife of the Ex-Secretary of the German consulate, writes the following letter to Dr. Hart, man In regard to Peruna : 8417 Wabash, Ave., Chicago, III., The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, O.: Gentlemen "I suffered this winter with a severe attack of la grippe, and having repeat edly beard of the value of Pe runa in such cases, I thought I would try it. I used it faith fully, and began to feel a change for the better the second day, and in the course of a week I wae yery much improved. After using three bottles I not only found tbe la grippe had disappeared, but my general health was much better. I am satisfied that Peruna is a wonder ful family reniedy,and gladly endorse it." Yours, Mrs. Tbeophile Schmitt. La grippe is epldemie catarrh. Peru nacurescatarrh wherever located. Send for a free copy of "Winter Catarrh."
