CROSS AND WHITES CASE.

The case of Cross and White, de-
faulting bank officials of Raleigh,
N. c., was to have been argued in the
Supreme Court of the United States
to-day, but w. r. Henry, counsel for
Cross and White appeared before the
court shortly before the time set for
argument and made a motion to
have the order set aside by which the
case:was advanced and assigned for
hearing to-day. AS Henry had not
advised counsel for the State of North
Carolina of his intention to make the
motion the court announced that the
case would be passed over for the
present and that it would reserve it's
decision on Henry's motion until
counsel on the opposite side could be
heard thereon. 1t is probable that
the case will be postponed until the
term of the court in October next.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-The extra
session of the Senate continues. tits
not accomplishing anything, how
ever, of Importance other than the
confirmation of the Presidents nom
nations for office.
COL. CANADAY's ILLNESS.
Sergeant-at-Arms of the Senate
Canaday, who is a Wilmingtonian,
has been very i'll with the pneumonia
for nearly a week. His sickness was
caused by exposure on the day of the
inauguration, he having held the
umbrella over President Harrison
while the latter was delivering his adj
dress during the rain His condition
is still such as to give his friends
much concern.
THE RUSH FOR OFFICE.
Harrison is just now catching it on
every hand from the office seekers
because of his slowness in making
appointments. Including the cab
met, the total of the administration
up to date are less than sixty. This
is a state of affairs that the hungry
and greedy gang of would-be pub
lie officials find it hard to under
stand. They expect a hundred or
more nominations every day. This
hardness on the part of the new
authorities arises from no considera-
ton for the Democrats now holding
the positions, but results from ina
bility, owing to the unprecedented
wrangling among republican politi-
clans, to decide who to appoint.
Mr.. Harrison has been talking
rather plainly to some of the gang.
He told some Indian Republicans
that the best thing they could do
was to go home; that if he wanted
them he always knew where they
We're to be found, and that he
thought he knew who were entitled
to the offices in that State as we'll as
any man in it. He is also said to
have told ex-senator Malone that
he would send for him when he want
ed his advice Ali Of these little
things add to the glorious harmony
that exists in the ranks of the Re
publican party.
NOMINATED BY THE PRESIDENT
Among the nominations sent to
the Senate to-day by the President
was the following: John s. Burton
of Mississippi, to be United States
Marshal for the Northern district OF
Mississippi; Edwig 1. Kursheedt, Of

MINOR MENTION.

James c. Perry, of North Carolina,
has been appointed on assistant sur
geon in the Marine Hospital service
of the United States
The Secretary of the Treasury has
appointed the following storekeeper
and guager: Pinkney II. Washburn
at Old Fort, N. c.
Senator Ingalls, has been sued by a
local firm of printers for $131 for
printing "The Hand Book of Pro-
tection," during the last campaign.
The work was not done for Ingalls,,
but he promised to be responsible for
the bill which he afterwards refused
to pay, hence the suit.
Wayne MacVeagh, who was in Gar
fields Cabinet, was here day or
two ago. He says he recognized
among the throng of Office seekers
hundreds of faces that were here on
the same errand in 1880. Once an
office-seeker always an office-seeker,
or an office-holder.

COL. NEW AND THE PRESIDENT.

Col. John C. New, of the Indianane
oils journal, and the President seem
to be bent on demonstrating the
falsity of the statement that they
are not in perfect accord and that
the Colonel is dissatisfied with not
being given a cabinet place. They
took long drive together Saturday
afternoon, and the Colonel also din

ed that his uame will be sent to the

RECOGNITION FOR BRAZIL.

The Democratic Senators who sought TO
make political capital out of a debate upon a
resolution recognizing the Fonseca Govern
ment in Brazil went down in ingorious con-
fusion Their lA'ceedng was in every sense
improper. We do not believe that single
Senator among those who voted for Mr.. Nor
gan's resolutions would have done so had his
party been in the majority. In the present
situation they did it because they knew the
Republicans could not support the resolutions,
and because a refusal to do so might enable
such Democratic orators and newspapers as
like that sort of work to misrepresent the Re-
publican position
The Senate is naturally jealous OF its pre-
fogatives. and especially of those which give
it some control over Executive action. Prob
ably to this fact may be ascribed the crcum-
stance that no Senator took it upon himself to
deny Congresss right to recognize new Gov
ernments 1t has been claimed however by a
long line of Secretaries of State, and it may
fairly be called the legitimate inference of many
Supreme Court decisions dealing with prize
courts and similar questions, that the right and
duty of recognition are lodged, with all other
matters of diplomacy and foreign relations, in
the hands of the President. The published
records of the State Department show that this
claim is most firmly set up; and certainly it
has not been the practice of Congress to assume
such responsibilities. II is true that Mr.. Clay,
when he was young and impetuous, used to
offer resolutions similar in tone (but not in
motive) to those presented by Mr.. Morgan.
His magnificent pleas for American interference
in the quarrels between Spain and her colonies
were highly embarrassing to President Monroe
and Secretary Adams, but they did not succeed
in creating as precedent the right or duty of
Congress TO consider recognition one of its
functions; and however much Mr. Clay NAV
have thought it was, he changed his mind
shortly when he himself became Secretary of
State He then proceeded with all the caution
he had so warmly condemned, caution quite
as necessary in the present situation as il was
in 1920.
II is possible however, TO conceive of reso
luton which would be appropriate as an init
nation 10 the President of the views of Congress
upon this subject, and had Mr. Morgan pre-
sented such paper, simply stating well-estab-

Georgia cast 142, 900 votes for President last
wear. But the State had ten years ago over
321 900 male adults, 17S,000 white and
143. 900 colored and probably had over 400,-
600 last year. 1t does not seem strange that
where little more than third of the votes can
bc cast and counted laws should be enacted to
restrain people from getting away. Neither
does it seem strange that the freedom of the
laboring population should in such State be
assailed, nor that the laboring people should
wish to retire from State where such dis
reimbursement and such restriction exist. But
surely it cannot be long before the good people
of the South without distinction of party or
race. will see that it is the right of every work
place of residence and labor, and that just and
fair treatment in all respects, with freedom in
speech and in voting, will do more to prevent
migration of labor than any restricting laws

MIGRATION EROM GEORGI4.

With all the secrecy of a Nihilst conspiracy
bands of coored people pack up, steal away by
night from the plantations in Georgia. and
migrate to new homes in Kansas or Arkansas
The reader asks with some surprise, Why this
secrecy" Then the fact comes ont that there
is law in Georgia which was enacted for the
express purpose Of depnying the coored la
borer of his freedom to find occupation else
where The law makes it perilous for anybody
within that state to act as an immigration
agent, and consequently as contractor for the
employment of labor outside that State, or TO
give information to the working people of op-
portunties in other States. or to help them in
getting transportation thithcr. The lawmakers
were Shrewd enough to see that .an act nom
inally directed against immigration agents only
could be extended to deprive the working peo-
pie of information. and that without the needed
information the colored people would be near
ly as much enslaved as they ever were Such
a law can be employed to hunt down and pun-
ish any person who, whether for phianthropic
political OF business motives, helps the colored
people to change their residence or better their
conditiCA. In how many Southern States arc
there laws of similar tenor?
1t is but few days since the eloquent orator
of Georgia, Mr.. Grady, painted with glowing
colors the peaceful and happy condition and

Even yet the papers which make it their busi-
ness to apologize for the most dangerous Of all
crimes are daily remarking that the enthusiasm

equally free to vote and to advocate their in
terests there would surely be no law on tho
statute books making il an offence to enligbten
laborers as to their opportunities, or to helm
them in moving from one region TO another
The practical mind will perceive at once that
such a law implies fear of extensive migration
by the colored working people. No such en-

The most important subject considered by the
Marine Conference has been the "rules OF the
road" which were finally disposed of on Fri
day. The substance of the changes made is set
forth at considerable length in to-day's Wash
ington dispatches. These changes are not so
radical as some doubtless have expected. In
the matter of fog signals, for example, no
method OF telegraphing, so to speak, the po-
sitOn and course OF one vessel to another has
been devised, and dependence must still be
placed on the skill and prudence of navigators.
In thick weather vessels are to go at " moderate
speed" but unfortunately that is an elastic
term. Would it not have been well to define
its meaning?
