If young ladies would decline to “receive the attentions of young men whose breath was flavored with whisk- ey, and whose very word and manners indicated drink, young men could not gain admittance to society who drank. There is no excuse for social drinking. It leads to debauchery in the end. The spectacle presented after almost every excitemement, such as the morning after the late fire, gave utterance to its toleration by the community. “Oh, I was at the fire and got exhaust-. ed,” and after the fire, many were exhausted for two days, Young men who g0 to balls and take drinks while the dance 1s in progress, usually revel after the ball is over for the bal- ance of the night, or a great portion of it, and carry the signs | the next day. There is nothing that affects the, good of a commbnity more ‘than the ‘polem. tion of social drinking. ‘It’ 4 “without any excuse whatever. It leads to other habits and vices that would never be thought of, and which lead to ruin and shame. Iti is to be hoped that iM? will pursue his argument against social drinking further. Naver was there a better time, and he will have done the young this line. Fatbers and mothers who have sons and daughters will honor and bless him. © ea MX, IN NORTH CAROLINA aviecocriame & Matters Of Interest Over the State. | omen neiamenl The encampment of the State Guard this year will be by regiments.

Woman's piace in the gospel was secondary only in that she was not made an apostle was not, called to preach. In all other relations she held a first place and the service she rendered was graciously ac: cepted by-her Lord. Her burst of ser- vice extended:from Anna, -the prophet. |. ess, who spake of Christ to all that, lobkedéfor fedémption’ in Jettisalem to that elect lidy-who trained her children to walk in the truth. Women minis- tered to Him of their substance. The Samaritan woman gave Him her testi- mony, the Syrophenician mother, her, faith; the woman that was forgiven mul¢h, her love and her tears, “Woman wad'traeatto Itim, most unselfish and most constant in her faith and service.

As a matter of fact, they were , unqualified lies. They were deliberutely manufac tured for thepurpose of fillmg news- paper coldmns with something sensa- tional, ...

When Mr. Mel Lean lived in Mooresville severa- years ago one of his friends was a hard working, enthusiastic Demo- crat. Shortly after Mr. -MeLean moved to Salisbury his friend wandered off into the Populist fold and moved to lism. .A few days ago this gentleman went to Concord and while there saw a negro magiscrate trying a white man, He stopped and looked at the proceedings. for a few minutes and turned away with the exclamation, “My God! Have I helped to bring this o1 our people ?” From the trial he went to the Popu- list newspaper office and asked if he was in. arrears for the paper. Ascer- taining the amount he paid up, order- ed the paper stopped and forthwith went toa Democratic office and sub- scribed for a Democratic paper.
