An Vnayoi idabie Accident.

Cor. state Chronicle
SANFORD, N c., Dec. 1.-THE state
ment m.fe in this weeks issue of the
Sanford Express to the effect that the
accident which occurred at the Carolina
Brown Stone quarry near here Friday
morning in which one young colored
man was killed and two others injured,
was caused by neglect, is an error and
cal culated to make a wrong impression
which is necessary to be corrected.
There was no neglect in the matter and
no blame is attached to any one by those
present who knew the situation. 1t was
simply one of those unavoidable occur
rences that occasionally or frequently
happen In such work. Several hands
were engaged removing dirt or soft stone
from the side of on embankment through
which are found cracks or seams now
and then, and one of these being tapped
in the process of digging, heavy chunk
Of the dirt tumbled Unexpectedly from
the side of the embankment, striking
those under or around it, resulting as
above stated The quantity of earth
thst caved was remarkably small and it
is difficulr to see how any one could be
killed in the collapse of so small oman
tlty of matter Such was the observa-
tion of those who arrived at the scene
after the accident. JUSTICE.

pOpuifst Plot Exposed.

TOPEKA. Kss Dec. 20 There has
been much speculation as to how the
populists prop Sc to carry out their
scheme of organizing the the house The
latest bit of sensational IN 4nOuvering has
just out through populist who
is rather loose of tongue. It has been
customary for some member of the
supreme court to swear in the Members
after the secretary of state called the
roll Of certified members
An examination of the law revealed to
Mr.. Breidenthal. chairman of the popu-
list committee, that there has never been
statutory provision regulating the msn
ner Of administering the oath and that
this was but delusion s ONE years
ago a m mber elect of the house was
shot and seriously wound d before the
assembling Of the Legislature. In order
to draw his pay he was sworn in by
a justice of the peace and his member
ship was recognized and Mr.. Mann of
Powell country drew his full pay Later
senator was sworn in by a Justice
, of the peace in his own county. and after
a lengthy debate it was decided by the
senate that any person empowered TO ad
minister oaths could swear in the mem
Der elect and he wou be a senator with
out further action.
Acting upon thess precedents Mr.
BreideDthal has had prepared a form OF
Oaths ana has sent it to every pOpulis'
police officer who would keep the pro
ccedings a secret. Following this, when
the legislature assemblies on the tenth, as
soon as the secretary called the roll and
before the supreme judge would have the
opportunity to swear In any member, the
populists sworn in are to Immediately or
ganize according to caucus orders, which
would take about ten minutes Thel
having the house they are Immediately t.
appoint committees and institute con
tests, maintaln control and in the enc
secure a decided maj 'rlty not only in th,
house but on int ballot. The scheme i
"a good one and would have worke bu
