The Tiraea Dispatch, In an editor ial on April 2",tb, points out the enormous saving to the farmers of the country under the Free Lint Hill prepared by the I louse Ways and MaaiiH Committee, and which is now being considered by Congress. It is estimated that the cotton growers of the South will save at least $1, 500,000 in the baling of their goods. There will be a further saving of from $.1,000,000 to $4, 000,000 to growers of peanuts, po tatoes or kindred crops in the reduc tion of the price of gunny sacks. The home builders will be $20,000, 000 better off because of the free lumber which this bill provides. There will be a reduction in the price of flour of $1.17 the barrel, and of apples of 25 cents perbushel. There will be a saving of some $5,000,000 on fencing and baling wires. There will be a further saviug in the cost of boots andfshoes, soie leather gards and harness, and on almost every farming implement. People ought to get out of the habit of throwing trash and old waste papers out on the streets or even in back lots. It is certainly not a very commendable practice on the part of anyone and belongs to another period of the world's his tory. There is probably nothing about a town that strangers notice more quickly, and it is by no means a good advertisement for the town in which it is done. Especially is this true when the principal streets are littered with trash and old pa pers of almost every description. We must all learn to have some town pride. In only too many cases when one hears of a "reform or "progressive" movement in our State politics it will be found that the same move ment Is headed by some fellow or fellows whose chief end is to "reform" official circles and "progress" to wards some fat olfice. The general knowledge of this fact on the part of the voters no doubt keeps a great many good men from falling in with every so-called "reform" or "pro gressive" movement that is launched by some man who is extremely am bitious to hold ollice. North Carolina. tltirlini'trn! TiHn-s DisjKtt'-h.) NoHh Carolina is one of the great est S. iates of the Union. It is really one o I the richest States, not only in material resources, but in the char acter of its people, and in their achievements under many adverse conditions. The North Carolina State- Fair Association has assem bled in its Fifteenth Annual Report many facts setting forth the enor mous material wealth of that great State, which are briefly summarized as follows by the Raleigh .News ana Observer: North Carolina has raised 1 20,000,- 000 pounds of tobacco. North Carolina has 1 1 ,JH teach ers in the public schools. North Carolina percentage of en rolled school population is 72 r cent. North Carolina raised 57,000,000 bushels of corn. North Carolina raised 718,380 bales of cotton. North Carolina raised 2G2,900 tons of hay. North Carolina raised 7,433,000 bushels of wheat. North Carolina raised 3,358,000 bushels of oats. North Carolina has assessed 300, 707 horses and mules. North Carolina has assessed 083, 930 head of cattle. North Carolina has assessed 1, 190,500 hogs. North Carolina banks have $78,- 405, 058 in deposits. North Carolina was originally a part of South Carolina. It has been spoken of by one of its most illustri ous sons as "a valley of humility ly ing between two mountains of con ceit" Virginia on the north and South Carolina on the South; but it has been pegging away at a most encouraging pace, and nearly every thing that it has done in the way of industrial and commercial develop ment has succeeded, because its peo ple are as honest as the day is long, and every dollar that has been added to the wealth of the Old North State has been as good as any dollar in gold that was ever coined. We are delighted at times to touch our Tar Heel friends "on the raw," just to see them jump; but there is no State in the South where progress has been more substantial, where the people are more dependable, where the prospects are more encouraging than in this great "valley of humility."

The character and variety of the members on the program at the clos ing exercises of the liobbitt school, held April 21st, are sufficient evidence of the pleasure derived therefrom by Almost every time you hear of ex ecutive clemency being extended to a convicted bank wrecker you hear of a premium being placed on bank wrecking. In the opinion of a great many good people the man who steals or misappropriates funds entrusted to him in good faith is in fact not one whit better than the fellow who holds up the cashier at the point of a pistol and loots the banks, and is therefore entitled to no more mercy or consideration. Reciprocity. (Richmond Times D-spiitch ) An analysis of the vote on the reci procity bill in the House on last Fri day shows that 197 Democrats, 07 Republicans and 1 Socialist voted for it, and that 10 Democrats, 78 Republicans and 1 Independent vot ed against it. The vote for the bill was 200; the vote ngainst the bill wnsI89. In February last when the bill was voted upon in the House, 143 Dem ocrats and 78 Republicans voted for it, and 5 Democrats and 87 Republi cans voted against it. The majori ty for the bill at this session of Con gress was 70; the majority for the bill in the last House was 29. Thirty five memliers dM not vote on the proposition Friday; 70 members did not vote on the bill in the last Con gress. The remarkable situation is presented that a Democratic meas ure offered by a Republican Admin istration is almost unanimously op posed by the Republicans and well nigh unanimously supported by the Democrats. This is the sort of bi party politics that should warm the cockles of Franklin MacVeagh's heart. The action of the House speaks well for the Democratic party. From 9:;i0 until alter 1 o clock tne tvip natrnna and friends who fi-ather Club offered its guests everything that j to wjtness them on last Friday the imagination seemed able to devise m 1 eveuino. Following is the program: the way of food for both the mind and j PK0GKM body. ! j - -From the streamers of pink and white j W elcome.... lies and bows of the waitresses' aprons, the color device of pink and white was worked out nink and white candles trAilinc with smilax. nink and white 1 Ghost Drill carnations in crystal vases, and place j Three Little Kittens........... and menu cards telling of the approach-; of the colors seen at every turn. The principal speaker was Kabbi Kd ward N. Carlisch, of Richmond, Va., who was introduced by the toastmas ter and president of the Club, Rev. I. W. Hughes. Nothing could have been more appropriate in the introduction of a Habbi, a leader of a different peoj.de, who today stand on the very pinnacle of mental attainment, and of whom it is said irenius is almost impossible without a dash of its ichor, than the bringing ; Song of Springtime. .. together of "Comradeship and Possibilities of the Mind. It was an example of consummate tact and insight. Rabbi Carlisch delighted his audience with one of the ablest and most inter esting discussions that it has ever been the pleasure of the Club to hear. The study was a consideration of Sbylock from a Jewish standpoint, and altera most masterful, scholarly and exhaust ive consideration of all the dataentering into the play, its historical setting, the sources of the material, the occasion and the presentation, he took up the study of Shylock himself. The main conten tion o'f the speaker was that Shylock is not a type, nor a normal representative of a people, but a creation of circum stances and environments. lr. Carlisch fully made out his case, and, on concluding, his cultured audience was unanimously of the opinion that they had listened to one of the most scholarly and exhaustive treatments of the Mergjjrnt of Venice they would ever be likely l.Tiear. Judge H. T. Powell spoke for Hender son. Speaking for Henderson is Judge Powell's strong point, and 011 this oc casion, as on all others, he did it full justice, from its splendid citizenship to its cotton seed oil mill, from which '"pure olive oil" is daily turned out. Rev. R. M. Andrews, in verse, did full justice to the Contemporary Club a dif ficult task, but one that found its mas ter in Mr. Andrews. Mr. S. T. Peace spoke of "Thebadies." He was introduced as a "Model l'JOO Husband," and gave every evidence of being such in an original poem, entitled "The Rolling-pin," and in other flashes of native wit. Those present were: Dr. E. N. Car lisch and Mrs. James Houston, Dr. R. G. Allen and Miss Mary Perry, Rev. and Mrs. R. M. Andrews, Mr. and Mrs. D. Y. Cooper, Mr. R. (. S. Davis and Miss Rebecca Watkins; Dr. and Mrs. V. II.

Too much cannot be said in praise of the efforts of teachers and pupils alike in the rendition of the program. All were splendidly trained aud each number gave pleasure. Thy chorus singing by the school was especially good. rue T.-ibleu.-ix, the Rainbow Motion song and Word "Drill were very effective with the soJd calcium lights.

Young for $3,370. It is interesting to note and anoth er evidence of Henderson's prosper ous condition that this same pro perty sold in 1880 for $1,450 and in 1900 for $ 2,200. Since these dates there have been no repairs or im provements made on the place, hence it is not in as good condition today for 93,370 as it was 5 years tgo tit $1,1 0 less.
