THE RAILROAD STRIKERS.
THE SHOOTING BETWEEN THE MILITIA
AND STRIKERS.
The governor of west virginia Asks for
United states Troops to Int
Down the Rioters.
[Special to the Dem ocrat.


NEW York, July 1S.-Adviccs from Wash
ington state that the Governor of West vir
ginia has telegraphed for United States troops
10 reduce to order the rlotous strikers on the
line Of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
Another report of yesterdays shooting
affair says that as train, guarded by q
militia company, was about starting, VIM
Vandergriff one of the strikers, seized the
switch ball to run the train on the side track
John Poisal, one of the militia, jumped from
the engine to replace the switch. Vandergrifi
fired two shots at Poisal who returned the
fire, shooting yandergriff through the hip.
Other shots were then fired at Vandergriff,
striking him in the head and arm.
? The engineer and fireman of the train ran
off as soon as the shooting commenced.
Capt. Faulkner having stated that he had
performed his duty and the train men having
deserted their posts he could do nothing
more, the militia company was therefore
marched TO the armory and disbanded.
BALTIMORE, July is. = Quiet along the
whole line. The strikers have stopped
freights at keyser Grafton, Martinsburg
and Wheeling, and are waiting to sec what
will happen. The military are receiving in
structions
The Governor of West Virginia and the
managers of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road are acting with greet caution and mod
There have been several wounded, but no
fatalities, as. the Virginia military are 10th
to fire on the strikers. A call upon the
United States for troops Is quite probable.

PRICE, FIVE CENTS.

zion, and all the tests of intellectual qtlal1ca-
tion have heretofore proved abortive.
Unless high standard of learning Is stead
lily. and vigorously adhered to, it is better not
to have any at all
One Of the great evils of the times is that
ignorant and incompetent men, and men who
are incapable of ever becoming competent
lawyers, are held out to the world by the
State, as officers and priests in the temple of
Justice
Elf the State is to give the seal of its appro-
bation to the qualifications Of any man as O.
lawyer, it should be done only through the
Court, and not through the irresponsible
action of the faculty Of law school, who
generally seem to think that it is impossible
for any man to have attended their lectures
without becoming O. competent lawyer.
The State holds out the lawyer as an officer
in the courts Of justice competent and fit to
aid the Judge and jury in coming to correct
and just conclusion. She commits q decep-
ton and fraud on the public when she ad-
mits incompetent and unfit men to the priest
hood in the temple Of Justice We are often
inclined to believe that a thorough academic
training should always be required as con
dition precedent to admission to the bar. 1t
is q discipline and trial OF both the intellec
tual and moral faculties. This should always
be followed by three years professional
lectures, and thorough examination by the
Supreme Court.
The priesthood of all the churches, which
have an educated ministry, go through dis
eipline as thorough, and in many cases even
more so than we have indicated, for the priests
who minister at the temple OF Justice

Necessary 10 the speedy Administration
of Justice In louisiana.
PAPER NO. V.
JULES GUIDRY,

LII order to an exact and efficient admins
tration of justice it is absolutely necessar,
that the judges should be gentlemen of high
character, cultivated intellects and deeply
learned in the history and science of the law
as well as familiar with the art of it's prac.
tice AS general rule it is not at all proba-
BILE that such qualifications can obtain the
support of the class of men who usually OBJ.
| tain control of political conventions, when the
more lucrative offices, requiring less high
| qualifications, are eagerly sought.
Lawyers possessing such qualifications if
nominated would always be voted for by the
voters OF the party nominating them, but are
they likely to be nominated? Experience
answers no. Reflection and experience de-
monstrate that all judges should be appoint
ed by the Executive, who Is directly RESPONSE
bic to the people for the wisdom and excel
lence of his choice.
Another great change is necessary in order
that the most capable and fit men may be in
duced to accept a place on the bench and
that is that the tenure of office should be for
good behavior. Any lawyer of sufficient
character and capacity to fill the bench of q
district court can make from $4,000 to SO, 900
per annum in the ordinary practice of his
profession at the bar, and unless he is Of in
dependent fortune, cannot afford to accent a
judgeship for only four short years at $4,000
per annum. At the end of that time he would
find himself at sea and adrift without % bust
ness or clientele, and having to build lIp q
practice again.
Judges who prove incompetent, negIectful
OF their duties or corrupt can always be re-
moved by the Legislature.
Make the tenure of Office for good behavior
and the certainty of moderate competence
for life will tempt the ablest and most up-
right OF tho bar to relinquish the uncertain
hopes of more brilliant and more lucrative
career for the more solid, sure, and hon
Orable position on the bench for life
Another change suggested is one that. we
believe, has never been tried but which would
certainly tend to produce and develop the
greatest excellence in the judiciary, and that
is to require that the higher courts shall be
filled by a selection from among the number
of the judges of the next inferior court The
judicial temper and talent is peculiar and
distinct from that of an advocate, and nothing
50 well as experience teaches us who would
make the best judges. If the highest places
are only attainable through a trial by service
in the lower, we have the strongest in
ducement for the highest and best talent to
accept positions in the lower courts
most important subject, and one which it
is most difficult for any statutory enact
ments to regulate efficiently, is the admission
of candidates to the bar. It is impossible to
fix legislative standard OF moral aualihca- |

BEET SUGAR AS A RIVAL TO CANE


The Raleigh Observer says that the
agricultural commissioner has ordered
several varieties OF the sugar beet seed,
which he proposes to distribute in every
county OF the State, his object being to
ascertain what sections are best adapt
ed to its culture. In France the cufti-
vation Of the sugar beet is becoming the
principal industry Of that prosperous
nation, and it is believed that this beet
can be made equally as profitable
in this State as all the
tests and experiments that have
been made have proven entirely satis-
factory. The sugar beets raised in
Wake county last year were tested by
an eminent chemist at the Centennial
with specimens from Delaware, New
Jersey, Illinois and Connecticut; the
average per cent Of sugar in those from
other States was about four, while the
North Carolina beet yielded 16.O Der
cent. When we consider the fact that
in France IA per cent Of sugar is con-
sidered extraordinary and far beyond
North Carolina,

longing to the mint and appropriated the
