Sam jones Sued for $4,000.
1Chattanooga Times.


A suit against the Rev. Sam Jones
and the Montgomery Christian Union
is the latest sensation. Last fall during
the progress of the Sam Jones' meet
ings at the tabernacle on the corner OF
Adams and Perry streets in Montgom-
cry, Ala, at the Sunday morning SER
vice, the wind blew almost gale, and
one of the electric light lamps, with
which the tent was lighted, fell and
struck Mr.. William Rogers, of Elmore
station, on the leg and very painfully
injured him. The broken glass also
struck the head of Mr.. Rogers little
boy and cut him, from which ne bled
profusely.
Efforts have been made by Mr..
Rogers through his attorneys for pay
ment for loss of time and suffering, but
all proposals have failed, Rev. Sam
Jones writing that he was not running
an accident insurance company.
AS a result u suit has just been
brought in the circuit courts of Mont
gomery county for $4,000 by Gen. j.
T. Holtzclaw and II. c. Bullock as at
torneys for Mr.. Rogers against the
great evangelist, Rev. Sam Jones, and
large number Of Christian gentlemen
of the Montgomery Christian Union.
The tabernacle on that memorable
day was crowded, and IN the midst of
such strong wind and threatening
weather the celebrated revivalist was
about the only man within knowledge
who could have held a crowd at the
crisis from bodily harm. Those who
were present will remember the occur
renee and will watch the result of the
suit with especial interest.

THE FRAUD IS GROWING.

The following information concerning
pensions should offer but little hope to
the man who proposes to conduct a cam
paign sheet on a: pension platform in
North Carolina. The figures are alarm
ing:
The chief dispenser of pensions, CON-
MISSIONER RAUM, submitted his last an
nual report a few days ago. 1t shows
that on June 80, 1891, the pension rolls
contained no less than 767,160 names,
being 1926 more than were enrolled a
year before. The total amount dis
bursed On account Of pensions was $119,-
548,959, which exceeds the disbursements
for the last preceding year by $12 ,O55,-
go.
1t is estimated that of the ,O04, 1853 SOL
diers who died during or since the war
124, $50 are represented on the pension
rolls by widows or their dependents.
There are about 1908, 705 soldiers now
living, Of whom 520,158 are on the pen
sion rolls. There are GS8,5 $40 surviving
soldiers whose names do not yet appear
on the rolls, and there are no representa-
tiyes thereon of 879,G98 deceased SOL
diers.
Will all the thousands who have not
yet had the nerve to believe that trey
were wounded in the wal com on the
rolls a little later?
1t looks, indeed, as though every union
soldier proposed through his agent to
have a slice of the fat.
The pension fraud is the most stupen-
dOus humbug on the continent today,
and if the scandal continues to grow, it
may finally approach the serious.
The nan who will complain Of a dis
ease twenty-five years after the war
closed and swear that he was disabled in
the war; well, such a man would swear
to almost anything.
There have been men born and raised
since the war closed and they have died.
With the same logic the parents who lost
their son after the war could claim a
pension. Age has its infirmities-war
or no war.
And for some loyal fraud to howl for
his country and an increased pension
roll-wbY its little, if any better than
burglary.
The hungry procession should be
headed off.

DOES Not Want 1t.
fStatesyille Landmark,

The editor Of this paper begs pardon
for a personal reference-his apology
for making it is that silence might be
misunderstood. His good friends of the
New Berne Journal, DURHAM, GLOBE
and Asheville Citizen have recently said
something about him in connection with
an office, and this paragraph is to thank
these brethren most cordially (the editor
Of THE GLOBE in particular for the
warmth Of his endorsement), and to add
to this expression of thanks this d~eclara-
ton: that there is no office whatever
that the editor of The Landmark wants,
and none that he would accept so long
as the newspaper business will afford
him a living. Political aspirations are
Legitimate and honorable, but while
recognizing this fact the editor of this
paper feels that office-holding is the
poorest business in the world and that
so far as he is concerned his usefulness,
il he has any, lies in another direction.
In the present state Of politics he could
not, he is perfectly we'll aware, get an
office If he wanted one, and he therefore
congratulates himself all the more that
doesn't want one.

SOME MON WE MEET.

HE GLOBE talks about men we meet,
some OF them in town and some Of them
out Of town. But the question of men
sometimes implies more than you think.
To-day we want to talk awhile about
COLONEL BURGWYN, of Henderson. He
is q man Of many parts, and above all he
is q gentleman. He has made money and
he has money. He is polished. He
makes a good speech and those who
know him would like to know him bet
ter. There is no real reason why BUR-
GWyN should not be prominent as a can
didate for governor on the next whirl,
and if he is a candidate there is no real
reason why lie should not succeed.
He has been loyal to the state and lie has
gone out of his way to see to it that his
state was advertised, and brought into
prominence. THE GLOBE remembers
that he was the one man of North Caro-
lima to show a true loyalty in Asheville
q winter ago, and it wants to see him
some day honored by our people. He
has claims and if he will simply present
them, they will, we believe, be cashed.

DR., JOHNSON, Of Durham, is one Of
the men who has dug much out of little.
He is not a man who gets excited about

JOHNSON is making money to day and
the same lick he will nold to the end.
The GLOBE is glad to see him piling up
the dollars and it knows tina he must
sooner or Later come away satisfied. In
