Representative made
splendid fight today to amend the

the President authority to reduce
the import duty on the class of

The speech was one of
the best the Congressman ever
made.
The amendment offered by Mr.
was of objected to on a
point of order by the floor leader,
Payne, and ruled out by the
siding officer.
In his speech Mr. said in
it always happens,
that whenever any bill is intro-
duce here which helps the con-
sumer there la always some little
rule In the way of It and it seems
impossible to get it before the
House. I if yon would
give me time, and listen to me, I
show amendment not
out of order, but from the
ruling of the Chair I confess have
bet little hope, and therefore I
conclude by I have intro-
this a last resort, in the
Hope that the baring at
heart the interest of the million's
of people who are under the
nation of the trusts and combines,
will allow this amendment to

would put this amendment before

Why Not Change
If the evening train is

its schedule has just as well be
changed so as to make connection
at Hobgood with the train from
Norfolk. It comes in plenty late
for that connection, if the time
was token up beyond Hobgood
instead of waiting at Parmele.

good one.

Origin of the Legend That on the

A United States one cent piece

extensively circulated early in the
last century.
One of the principal incidents
that led to the adoption of this
seems singularly out
of place on an American coin, es-
niter the United Slates
had just achieved its Independence
of Great when
the Males merchant ship
Dauphin of Philadelphia was seized
near the strait of by a
warship of Algiers and her crow
passengers were thrown into
man bondage to await an exorbitant
ransom.
About the same lime the
can Maria of Huston
and Minerva of New York also were
seized in the Mediterranean, and
their people met a similar fate,
a total of American citizens
in danger of being sold into the
slave marts of the east. At that time
the United States was without a sin-
ship of war or naval officer
navy yards.
The cause of unprotected con-
of the country was the strong
opposition to a permanent nary
well as to a standing army, and con-
resorted to the plan of paying
an annual tribute to the
powers of north Africa, so
there would be no further
of our commerce in the Med-
Twenty-two of the prisoners were
ransomed by the government for
about while the others died
in captivity or were ransomed by
their friend-, hi a short time the
animal tribute from the United
States amounted to over
when the in con-
realized that the tribute was
far exceeding the cost of maintain-
a navy.
Then the cry of Millions for de-
not a penny for was
raised and did not a little toward
securing the appropriation for the
first group of war vessels that made
the United Slates famous.
These were the Constitution, United
States. President, Constellation,
Congress and Chesapeake.

The Common Sense.

and refer to so often The man

upon which public sentiment finally
settled down. This a good theory

men possessed of rare gift. He
who is not endowed this saving
common sense is the man who is not
correctly read the mind upon
any given question, and who fails to
interpret the of opinion
among neighbors. We have all
seen these rarely gifted men, and
they are always leaders and guides,
valuable alike to stimulate or re-
strain the public conscience,

rely in times of Stress, The man of
marked personal gifts is usually-
over confident in his own
He does not pause to feel the public
pulse or take counsel of the many
minds about him, while the man of
common sense, thinking of rs
than of himself, balances the
conflicting opinions of those about
him, and out of the Babel of voices
weighed in the scales of his
reason reaches the same and safe
conclusions that satisfy the public
mind. It not toadying to the
opinions of the populace, but it is
the great truth so often quoted, that
in the multitude of counsels there is
wisdom. The fact is, that exactly
at tins point the highest wisdom
may be found, and the man who first
discovers and gives it expression
he who is gifted with we call

is ability to bridle his own
