THE DYNAMITERS ON TRIAL.

The trial at Warwick, England, of the
men charged with causing, for felonious
purposes, the recent dynamite explosions in
England was concluded last Friday. Nc
Donnell, who pleaded guilty to the charge
of treason and felony, was released on bail,
to appear at any time he may be called for
by the officers of the crown. James Eagan
was sentenced to penal servitude for twenty
years and John DAILY forlife. Daly's defense
of himself was very able. He argued that
nothing had been proved against him, except
that he had borne an assumed name. Butthe
Queen moved about under an assumed name.
Why had he not as good right? He asked
for justice, not mercy. He was gratified
that he was on trial before Englishmen.
There was no clap trap, as in Ireland. The
prosecution, he said, had failed to show that
he had joined in the plot to coerce the gov
ernment. Daily denounced the detectives
and officials of Dublin Castle. The latter,
he said, had reduced Dublin to the condition
of Sodom and Gomorrah. He admitted
having burned nitro glycerine in a garden,
and that he had explosivesin in his possession,
but he contended that this fact did not con-
stitute treason and felony.

Says the Lenoir Topic: 1t is a singular
fact that the first cotton ever sent abroad
was raised in Burke county. John Ruther-
ford, Sr., who had learned the hatter's trade
in the old country, raised the cotton as an
experiment, picked it and packed in bags,
wagon and shipped it to England to test its
value as fibre compared with flax, for
making cloth.
The Monroe Enquirer reports the follow
ing shocking confession made by Mrs.
Frances Stegall, who died in Union county
IN. c. a few days ago: On her deatiIbed
she made a startling confession to the effect
that 80 years ago she killed her husband by
pouring melted lead into his ear. AT the
time of her death Mrs. Stegall was about 10
years old. Her husband came home drunk
on that eventful night 80 years ago and she
killed him by pouring the lead into his ear.
No suspician Of foul play was ever enter
tanned. The neighbors supposed that he
had died in drunken stupor, his body was
buried and he was soon forgotten. His wife
survived him 80 years, but at the end her
conscience rebelled, and the burden of q
secret that she had carried so long was cast
off before the grave could claim her.
Says the Lincoln Press of last Saturday:
Our readers will doubtless remember that a
few weeks ago we published in these COL
umns an account of the horrible death a
young son of Moses Stroup, of CASTOR county,
whose death was caused by being dragged
Stroup was hauling lumber with this same
pair of mules. In going with his empty
wagon to the mill for lumber Mr.. Stroup's
foot was caught between the wagon axle
and stump and badly hurt. On MS return
with load of lumber and in going down a
hill the mules ran away. Mr.. StrOup at
tempted to spring from the wagon, but be-
ing disabled by his wounded foot could not
lump clear of the wheels and consequently
received painful and serious injuries, the
worst wound being horrible cash on his
arm and shoulder. His condition is critical.

A DENIAL FROM CAPT. DAWsoN.-A par
agraph having appeared in several Of the
State papers recently to the effect that Capt
F. w. Dawson, managing editor of the
Charleston Neacs and Courier, has Senatorial
aspirations, that gentleman makes prompt
denial of the statement, in the following
words, telegraphed last Thursday from New
York, where he was when he first became
aware of the circulation of the paragraph in
question:
have Just learned that a paragraph has ap-
peared in some Of the newspapers of South Car
olina saying that it is reported that I am ambi-
tious to be Gen. Hampton's successor in the
United States Senate. 1t is due to myself to say
that, in my Judgment Senator Hampton deserves
to be- and will be, his own successor, and that,
furthermore am not candidate for any pubic
office, high or low, and will not accept any such,
at this time or hereafter. South Carolina can
command my services whenever there is work to
be done for the public good but have no ambi-
tions or hopes outside of my profession as ajour-
naist, and for such services as I am able to rem
der, I desire and can accept no other reward than
the confidence and good will of my fellow-citl-
zens +. w. DAWSON.

A RAILROAD DPRoGRAMME.-Capt. F. W..
Dawson, of the Ne,cs and Courier, recently
met Col. A. B. Andrews, a prominent rail-
road man of North Carolina, and as the out
come of their conversation, Captain Dawson
communicates to his paper the following:
met President Andrews of the Western North
Carolina Railroad, the line which is now in op-
Grafton from Salisbury to Waynesville and
Warm Springs, and to a point nearly thirty miles
west of Waynesville on the Ducktown branch.
The engineering difficulties were immense, but
the worst of them have been overcome and by
September more than thirty additional miles OF
road beyond Waynesville will have been con-
structed in accordance with the agreement with
the State The obligation to build given num-
ber of miles of railroad west of Waynesville by
September is, l am informed, the immediate
cause of the hitherto unaccountable delay In
building the railroad from Hendersonville to
Ashevilie, which, with the exception of a few
miles, is graded and ready for the ties. 1t is in
tended to operate the Spartanburg and Asheville
Railroad as part of the Western North Carolina
Railroad, and Colonel Andrews hopes to begin
work upon it this fall. There would not be so
much loss Of time, but for the imperative neces-
sity of concentrating all the available force this
summer on the DucktOwn branch

To the County Executive Committee: recon-
mended Joseph Black as my successor from this
precinct on the Executive Committee He is in
accord with the Democratic party, and has been
serving as vice-chairman of this precinct since
1882. The impression is general here that the
petition against him was conceived in personal
ill-feeling. In recommending Mr.. Black for my
successor, I did so without his knowledge or
consent. Respectfully, IRA HARDIN.

Changes in Niagara,s Name.

NIAGARA FAILS COURIER
The name Niagara has passed through many
photographed changes in the last 200 years. In
1857 it was written Oniagoragh. In 1856 Cover
nor Dongan appeared uncertain about it and
spelled it Ohniagero. Onyagara, and Onyagro.
The French in 1858 to 1903 wrote it Niaguro,
Onygare, Onyagra, and Oneygra Philip Liv-
ingston wrote in 1920 to 1870 Octiagara, Jagera,
and Yagerah, and Schuyler and Livingston,
Commissioners of Indian Affairs, wrote it in 1870
Oniagarea, Ochiagara, etc. In 1921 it was writ
ten Oniagora, Oniagara and accidentally, prob
ably, Niagara, as at present Lieutenant Lind
say wrote it Niagara in 1751. So did Captain
De Lancey son of Governor De Lancey. who
was an officer in the English army that captured
Fort Niagara from the French in 1859. These
pioneers may, however, be excused in view of
the fact-as will be attested by postmasters-
that some letter-writers of to day seem quite as
undecided about the photography of this world

Treasury for a list of marshals and deputy mar
shals employed IN Vest Virginia for the fiscal
years 1852 and 1888 together with a statement
of the services performed and fees received by
each Adopted.
Mr. Springer, chairman of the committee on
expenditures in the Department of Justice,
moved to suspend the rules and adopt the resO-
luton to increase the membership Of that com
mittee to nine, and authorizing it to appoint a
subcommittee, composed Of not less than three
members, which shall be authorized by the
House to send for papers and persons.
Mr. Belford believed the present Attorney
general had been wise, jndicious and honest in
all operations, but thought the expenses incurred
in the star-route trials should be investigated.
His name had been connected with the star route
trial by the last Congress, and he demanded an
investigation, and desired the committee in the
examination to take into consideration the checks
signed y. b. B." and given in pay for gam
bling debt but not by him nor to pay him.
Nh. White, Of Kentucky, favored the resolution.
He believed thousands of dollars were stolen
from the treasury by federal officers. 1t will be
found that certain men, notably the Governor Of
bied in the interest of the whisky ring, would
deserve to be stripped of their clothes.
Mr. Springer modified his resolution to limit
the expenditure to s., 600. Agreed to-

Defective Machinery of Justice.

st. Louis Republican,. = I'-l
IT is as little as can be said that the inconclu-
sive ending of this Lincoln county murder trial
and the recent inconcusive ending of the trial of
the persons charged with shocking outrage on
Miss Emma Bond, in Illinois. leave the very
worst impression upon the public mind. 1t deep
ems the savage and resentful convictions that a
machinery of justice which signally fails of its
ofiice-which in nearly every conspicuous case
fails after prodigous and ridiculous display of
solemnity, oratOry, and tummery to discover
and punish the criminal-has degenerated into
an insufferable mockery. Admitting that the
verdicts in these and other similar cases are just
and right, and that other persons than those on
trial committed the crimes, why is it that the
verdict ends the case and the real criminal is
never discovered and punished! If our machin-
cry of justice is SO admirably adapted 10 the ac-
quittal of innocent persons what is the explana-
ton of its miserable failure to find out the
guilty2

easiest and cheapest way, to put an end to the
evils of incompetence, would be for Congress to
pass a law forever forbidding the manufacture
and sale of Intoxicating liquors in the United
States as beverage. Certainly this would be
better than to compel the several States conpos
ing the Union to do that for themselves which
the general government should do for them.
The nation is the parent, while the States are
the offspring and how parent-lile 1t would be
for the general government to protect the inter
ests Of the States by removing from them en-
tirely all temptation to indulge the appetite in
anything so injurious to the highest and best
interests Of society. 1t seems to me that there
are many reasons why Congress should legislate
upon the subject Of intemperance There are
places like New York city, Chicago
and hundreds of other large cities,
where the free whisky element is so strong as TO
make it exceedingly difficult for the States in
which these cities are situated to enforce the
provisions of any stringent Temperance measure,
while law enacted by Congress would be uni
form going into effect in all the States at the
same time, and the general government could
enforce the provisions of any law in any part of
the country, no matter where.
