Many readers of the PATRIOT will be

About one hundred men attended a
maBs meeting of union labor men in

Miller, of Raleigh, president of the
State Federation of Labor, presided.
Representatives were present from
most of the towns in North Carolina
having labor organizations. The meet-ing
was in session for about three
hours aud a number of speeches was
made iu advocacy of the cause of
unionism. After the meeting it was
stated that the unions would not enter
politics in North Carolina.
The PATRIOT is pleased to acknowl-edge
the receipt of a long letter from
an old and staunch friend whom we
hold in high esteem, Dr. W. A. Coble,
of Brick Church. Dr. Coble is one of
tbe useful men whose lives have really
enriched the world, and his mature
observations regarding events and con-ditions
that go to make history are
logical and refreshing as compared
1th the vaporings of men whose per-spective
is dimmed by tbe shadows of
greed or personal aggrandizement. Tbe
froats of 76 winters are reflected in the
gray hairs of onr venerable friend's
bead. Fifty-five of those years were
spent in ministering to the sick and
afflicted with rare tact aad skill. Since
his early youth Dr. Coble has been a
reader of the PATRIOT, his father hav-ing
been a subscriber as early as 1822.
Such constancy is valued in this office.
We hope tha life of this good man will
be spared many years and the physical
ills that now oppress him will vanish
at tbe coming of the warm "season.
