''Fudgins'--Or Worse,
Especial Cor. STATE CHRONICLE

The News Observer in its issue of the
7th inst, under the caption, "Fudging
Again." replying to or criticising Law
yer's" communication in the CHRONICLE of
the 9th inst, says, 'One would suppose
from this that the News Observer had said
that no new rule is announced in Dog
gett's case We did not use that language
at all What we did say is very different
from that.
We are not in the habit of preserving
our copies OF the News-Observer: doubt
less that paper counted on this. Fortu-
nately, however, we can place our hands
on the News Obsel yer of July 21st, which
contains the article referred to in Law
yer's'' communication.
We refer the organ to the editorial,
of 21st July Afcer reviewing the legisla-
ton in respect to killing stock by railroads
and the decisions of our court thereupon,
comparing the decision in the first case,
which arose in 1868, with the last, which
came before the court in 1894, and insist
ing that the same rule had been adhered
to in every case, the organ proceeds to
say, -''Cnder every decision rendered
since 1857 involving this statute the bur
den is placed on the railroad company To
show that there was no neglect; 1t has
always been held that such facts must be
shown as negative the presumption of
neglect, or the railroad company will be
held liable. This is the force and effect of
the statute. THERE Is NOTHING IN Doc
GETS CASE OR ANY OTHER CASE To THE
CONTRARY OF THIS.
The discriminating intellect of the edi-
tor of the organ may be able to discover
III this meaning different from that con
veyed to the mind OF Lawyer" We Ven
ture to say few will perceive 1t. Ordinary
minds will understand it to mean that mo
new rule is announced in Doggett's case.
That is what the organ meant, too; but
that paper has lately gotten into the habit
of lodging and Judging awfully.

Anonymous Writing.



Much has been said recently in the pa
pers about this species of literature. Some
condemn it in toto, others advocate it un-
der certain circumstances. The latter is
the only true position. 1t is only the
''rOgue who feels the halter draw who
thinks otherwise. | clip the following, but
do not rank its author among the ''rogues:' -
''The man or the newspaper that attacks
any one under cover is a coward, who de-
serves the contempt and censure of all
good people. There is no manlinesS, no
bravery, in attacking man when you
shield yourself behind a cover. 1t is the
essence of little meanness. More cannot
be said. y Wilson Advance.
But how is it when the coward" at
tacks you first 'under coverY' | have
known the very men who did this to cry
when struck with their own whip. If the
editor of the Advance, whom | know and
esteem very highly, will reflect moment
he will see that his paragraph ought to be
qualified thus: ''Thc man or the newspa-
per that makes the first attack upon an
other under cover is coward and ought
not to whine if he is treated to dose of
his own medicine etc. | have known a
man to attack others under circumstances
Of consummate cOwardice, who knew he
was as safe from personal chaStisement as
if he were fighting a woman, and only
signed his initials, which, unless his ego
tism was continental, he knew could only
be anonymous. Everybody knows that
"K. r. G." has no more value than "A.
Y. G." Only the man attacked and a
few friends could know the author.
No gentleman ought to crafty his per-
sonal spleen by abusing Others anony
mously. If gentleman has grievance
there is always manly, straightforward
way to have it redressed, without resort
ing to mean low down filings under cover
But when a gentleman is attacked in this
way he frequently has no other means of
defence but to show ''under cover" the
character of his assailant.

all that has been said in his behalf, and
believe | but express the sentiments of the

Judge Strong, for the position to which
his friends are about to elect him, and he
can truthfully say that, take him at any
and all times you will never find a man
more worthy in every respect for that high
and responsible position.
1t is recognized and admitted throughout
the State that he is one of the most learned
lawyers to be found faithful to every
trust, steadfast and unfiinching where
duty leads, fearless in the right, spotess
in purity, the peer of any man in North
Carolina. By nominating him the Demo
cratic party will reflect credit upon itself
and elect to the Supreme Bench, gentle
man of the highest character, a typical
North Carolinian, and whose name will
go down to posterity as one Of the most
learned, fair and impartial judges that
ever graced the bench of our highest judi
cial tribunal CAPE FEAR.

lowed her departure from the faith Of her

Nemesis that this cultured sceptic and

Her intello ctual acuteness will be more
than balanced by her inexplicable moral

The New Police Alarm Invented by
 Detective Brewer and Fire Alarm
 Superintendent Smith shown to the
 Public.
 About half-past seven o'clock last evening nearly five hundred people, among them be- ing police commissioners, fire commissioners, members of the Common Council and City Hall officials, had assembled on the Green to see the workings of the new device to warn the policemen when on their beats and pa tented by Detective Brewer and Fire Alarm Superintendent Smith. One of the common Gamewen police alarm boxes had been sta toned on the Green near the band stand and over it was common gas lamp of white glass in which the light was burning. Just below this lamp in little iron cup rested g bright red glass globe which was connected by two heavy weights worked by 8 strong battery concealed in the signal station. This battery was connected with wire which was connected with 8 key in the battery room of the fire department in the City Hall. A fireman stood at the key and Detective Brewer stood near the box explaining it's working and uses. When the man at the key pressed the key the small red globe rose inside the white globe so as to make the light appear red. Inside the station was a hook, which. when pulled down, lowered the red globe into the cup again and registered that the call had been answered in the bat tery room. Said the detective: The idea is that one of these signals will be placed over. each of the twenty-five Gamewell police boxes in the city, and they will be connected at the police office with separate numbered key, so that when police officer is wanted the chief instead of sending a man out after him can press the button at headquarters, which will raise the red light. By this the officer will know that he is to answer the call by going to the police box and telephoning to headquarters. In this way if anything is wrong it is calculated the whole force can be notified in lees than fifteen minutes

LABOR MATTERS.

The Carriage Body Makers, strike
 Rumors and TaIk-Other Matters
 About Town.
 Most of the carriage manufacturers where the body makers have struck are said to be tolerably well supplied with unfinished bod ies, so that they can keep their business go- ing for some time to come. Also carriage body makers claim that the bosses are buy ing bodies from other shops and that this means an indefinite lockout In view of this they are talking, so rumor says, of hold ing in day or two secret meeting to devise plans compelling all the carriage workmen smiths, trimmers and all, to lay down their work and leave the shops until the strike of the body makers has been settled. The pro- jectors of the enterprise are confident of success. One or two meetings to consider the matter have already been held According to reports, the Mallory, Wheel CT company day or two ago replied to it's moulders' demands for twenty per csnt. raise that it could not pay that amount, but would grant an increase of ten per cent. The moulders accepted this offer and their wages will be increased next Tuesday.
 The carpenters are quite hopeful of getting raise of wages. One of their number, an old veteran, said that in view of the labori- ousness of their occupation, the danger at tending it, the exposure to cold and storms and icclement weather-all these and the present prices paid, that there was good prospect that the bosses would yield, espe- cially as this is the season for making con- tracts.
 MAYOR HoLcoMB DENIES THAT HE SAID HE
 WOULD FURNISH CARRIAGE BODIES TO OTHER
 MANUFACTURERS.
 Mayor Hoicomb yesterday denied the rumors to the effect that he told the carriage manufacturers not to pay the increase of wages asked by the striking body makers, ss he would furnish them all the carriage bodies they wanted, as he has all he can do to sup ply his own customers.

FuneraI of Edgar V. Illidre.

Yesterday afternoon the funeral of the late Edgar v. Illidge, the son of George F. A. and Fannie P. nlidge, took place from the residence of his parents, 55 Beers street. A large number of the friends of the de- ceased, including his little classmates, were present. Beautiful floral tributes were brought. The remains were placed in a white brocade velvet casket furnished by Theo. Keller. The pallbearers were Lewis Kautz, Wilmer Kautz, Ed. Driesbach, Frank E. Allen, John Spencer and Harry Smith, all schoolmates of Edgar Prof. Mitchell was present and sung two appropriate selec- Hons. Rev. Selden Gilbert, pastor of the Church of the Messiah, oficiated. MT. Gil berts remarks were fitting to the occasion He read a choice poem, the sentiment of which was calculated to afford consolation to the mourners, and then in tender yet for cible and logical manner presented many facts which point to immortality as the des- tiny of the race. Mir. Gilbert referred to the beautiful vision which greeted the eyes of the little sufferer just before his spirit took its flight, and narrated similar experiences, all comforting and affording hope of 8 bliss ful hereafter. After all present had viewed the remains the little casket was borne out by the youthful pa1Ibearers and conveyed to the Evergreen cemetery.
