The reason temperance and the closing of saloons made such slow progress prior to 1900 was because all the could vote. Except a few preachers, teachers and others of the best type, the vote was always an asset of the saloon. Therefore an election, with the division found among while men upon most questions was In most places certain to go wot. But with the elimination of the vote by the suffrage the of temperance has gone forward with a mighty impetus. In Anson county, when the fight commenced for those who favored the continuance of the saloons procured th registration of who had not been permit- to vote since the passage Of the suffrage amendment. he of the of excluded from other elections, outraged the people and made many for pro- The forced in by a vote of ti I the victory to vote, as the following in the North Carolina edited by Mr. John A.

We have heard several who want to move to Greenville with the coming of the new year, inquiring if they can houses to live In. That is a question that needs attention. There are a not enough houses here, and the town cannot grow faster than there are houses for the people. It is evident that more houses should be built. The last report of the Pension Commissioner affords an inter- study. It shows that during the fiscal year, pensioners died. The says that the total pen June 1907, was and the total value of the pension roll at that date was This is greater by above the of the roll for the year previews, and is accounted for by the higher rates of pensions provided by the act of 1907, under which act there had been rolled June of the present year at use. This is beneficial to the manufacturers whose sale bills are increased thereby, but it is hard on the farmer who is trying to get ahead. when we commence this tide we had in mind the keeping of things in their in the home. Children especially are prone to be careless in this re- If children would thought- fully keep their things, or what ever they use or handle, in their proper places, many a weary step of a tired mother would be saved- Children are now in school, and then is when they are particularly careless about their things at home- seem to think that while they are with their own affairs everybody else must look their conveniences, and books, hats, wraps, etc., are thrown around promiscuously. Then comes the vexatious hunt- for things when it is time to go to school, the worry and de- lay, the leaving home in excite- and turmoil.

So small is he as compared with his position, that he is ab dependent on the for power and prestige. He must do business on the credit of his position.
