Lynching Ih Murder.
Speaking of the aht?me and die.
grace of the Colleton lynching the
Baptist Courier Bays-/ r, t ,
?'Through life these lyncher*
must bear the guilt, and after death
face this awful charge before the
Judge of all the earth. ' It is an aw
ful crime they have committed, un
necessary, useless, and tbe slaying
of the two does not bring back tile
life of the one. The law which war
transgressed in tho ilrat Instance is
also trampled under foot in the se
cond Instance, and human life which
was cruelly taken in Hie first in
stance in just as unlawfully taken
in the seoond Inatance. It is great
ly to bo regretted that a crowd of
men, presumably all of them inno
cent heretofore of bloodshed, should
willingly commit this bloody deed,
for the crime thoy have committed
cannot In any sense lessen the grief
and sorrow caused by tho firm
wrong. Lychlng is a crime, it i?
murder, and this second wrong will
never, oau never, undo the flrot
wrong."
House Flies as Disease Spreaders.
In former times it was the big
things that froze men's hearts with
fear ? the mythical giants, the drag
ons, tho specters. Now science lias
taught us that, tho littlo things are
the dangerous ones ? the ineects,
mosquitoes and flies, and the mi
crobes.
We first learned of tbe part the
mosquito played in the transmission
of malaria and yellow fever, but the
menace that there is to mankind in
the housefly was for long unsuspect
ed. It is only about fifteen 5 ears
ago that the first heeded -warnings
were uttered against this insect and
its actual guilt as a murdorer of men
was clearly demonstrated only at tho
time of tho Spanish war, when so
many of the flower of American
youth t'liert of typhoid fever that dec
imated the volunteer army in the do
tentlon camps in all parts of the
oountry.
So aotive is the fl/ in the ppread
of this disease that it has been pro
posed in a recent publication of tbe
U. S. Department of Agriculture to
rename It the "typhoid fly."
It may carry the germs of this <Ha
eaao io one of the two ways, either
directly by soiling its foet wit.li the
discharges ftorn fever patients and
then flying off and alighting upon
food or falling into milk; or eUc by
eating matter contaminated with ty
phoid, and carrying the genua in its
intestinal canal and depositing them
upon food.
But It i* not &laae -typhoid Hint
flies spread. The germs of tubercu
losis may readily be carried hv thorn
unless patient has heeded warnings
sounded on all sidos and taken care
to destroy all expectorated matter.
The virus of a Bore may be taken up
by a fly's feet and deposited on h
out or abraded surfaco of the skin
" - of another person. Any disease, in
deed, which is capable of inoculation
0* of being snr?*d by the taking in I
of Its gorms with food or drink may
be spread by these noxious ih sects

Naya Prohibition llat Worked
The Wrong Way.
Tbe following is from tl?? Florence
Dally Time* and in published by re?
quefet :
"MrL James M. Allen, Jr.is in
tlieblty to ?io btr brWtitri from
New York and from the army, Mr
Allen aaya that If one want* lo know
what prohibition really Im they should
visit Nortb Carolina now and see
the praotioal workings and the do
morulization of labor and business
from the blind therein spite of the
Pjnkerlon detective* that are em
ployed to run them t,6 earth. Labor
is demoralized because all the n?
groeu can make more money a? blind
tigers than by honest work, and
waxes are too hif^h even if one can
get a man or woman to work.
lie nayw that there is more drunken
nest) on the streets now than he ever
saw in Ooldsboro before, and that
the same is true of other tow us in the
stale. The jug trains and express
company are doing a big business.
Hlxtyfive galloon of liquor in one
day was counted a dull shipment
for Ooldsboro, and more money is
going out of the community now for
liquor than ever before;
Mr. Allen nays lit) in, and has al>
ways been an advocate of prohibit
tlou, but that he is convinced now
that the passago of such a law un>
supported by the real aentimont of
the people, has worked for corrop
tlnn and evil. Ho thinks likely that
the State legislature may repeal it
next time and give the people local
option as they had before, and under
which temperance seemed to be ad
vaucing."

Miloage Regulation Upheld By Hines
Upon the request of the Georgia
State Railroad Commission, Special
Attorney Junes K. Hines has given
an interesting opinion in regard to
the complaints made by the travel
ing public as to the exchange of
mileage book coupons for straight
tickets at railway agencies. Attor
ney Mines holds that the railroads'
regulation for the presentation and
exchange of coupons for mileage is
entirely reasonable.
Attorney Hines was asked by the
Commission to furnish an opinion
[upon the right of a common carrier
to txpil a passenger, who had fail
ed to comply with its regulation,
requiring the exchange of mileage
coupons for a ticket.
Attorney Hines says that carriers
of passengers may eject from their
Conveyances all persons refusing to
comply with reasonable regulations.
He says that the present mileage
book arrangement i? reasonable be
cause the purchaser enters into a
contract with the railway company
Helling i be mileage book. One of
the terms of the counsel is that
coupon* from Ihese mileage books
will not be honored on trains except
at non-agency points or at station
agencies not open for the sale of
i lie tickets.
The pusehaser, says Attorney
Hines, g< is a reduced rate and he
is hound by the terms of the spe
cial contract. He sa\s in conclu
sion tliht the arrangement has al
leady been auhmitted to and appro
ved by the State Railroad C<>ittmia
