little nonsense about it rs any convention
that has met in South Carolina in many
years Everything was done decently and
In order; its deliberations were character
lied by marked freedom from buucombe
and partisanism, and no personal or politi-
cal abuse was inJulged in. The convention
was gathering of bread winners who
thought their interests were suffering and
they set forth their complaints and their
wishes in respectful language.
About the only adverse criticism of the
convention we have seen comes from the
Columbia Register, which taunts MIR. Il. G.

State Banks introduced.

Bill Providing for the Organization OF
State Banks introduced.
RICHMOND. Dec. 11.-A bill was in
PRODUCED in the legislature to-day pro-
viding for the organization of State
banks of circulation, based upon Vir-
GINA State bonds as security for the
circulation.
The act is to take effect when the
United States statute, imposing tax
of 10 per cent. On the circulation of
State banks, is repealed. The bill,
which is very long one, provides in
detail how banks shall be organized and
operated. In towns and villages the
capital to be not less than $4,000 and
in cities not less than $4,000.
At least fifty per cent. of capital shall
be paid in before the banks shall be
authorized to commence business. The
measure contains thirtyseven sections
and is the most important bill offered
during the session.

Summing Up the Evidence.
This concluded the evidence and the
city solicitor, w. A. Glasgow, said in a
brief speech that Chief Tory had been
tried in the courts on a serious charge
and cqultted, but this investigate ion
WAS on the charge OF conduct unbecom-
ing an officer. He thought, without
taking into consideration any OF the
evidence. Mr.. Terry's own statement
was sufficient to have him removed, and
TO place in the position OF chief of
police and every other policeman such
their lives are safe under them
MIR. Scott. in his reply, admitted that
the charge was a serious one, and
thought that, during the investigation
some tangible charge would be brought
out, but there was not a aointilla Of
evidence against him. He said the
charge WAS unfounded, and an attempt
to make scapeRoat of somebody. The
chief, the mayor and every other oficer
did all they could.
Mr.. Smith in making the closing
argument said this trial was not one OF
criminal nature. Mr.. Terry was not
accused Of any heinous crime that
would disgrace him, but Of conduct un-
becoming a chief of police. In his
speech of half an hour he reviewed the
whole evidence and concluded few
minutes before 5 o'clock. Mayor Trout
then took the case under advisement
until this morning, when he will render
his decision.

The directors of the Roanoke Railway
Construction Company continued tho
work yesterday of soliciting subscrip-
tions to tho capital stock of the com pany
with some success. They are in nowise
disparaged and continue to work hard
Notwithstanding the fact that the people
do not subscribe with the liberality that
was expected of them or that is due the
enterprise from the philosophical
people Of a city like Roanoke.
One great obstacle stands like a lion
in the path between this scheme and
success and that is the Failure of the
citizens, the people Of moderate means,
to subscribe what they are able to this
enterprise. Unless they do this now it
will be perhaps more than Ave years
| before Roanoke will have another rail-
road.
The press and the people have been
wont to say that the "mossback" had
gone and old fogyism had no hold in
Roanoke. This, it seems, is not entirely
true. There are people who are
Rbundantly able to do SO, notwithstand-
ing the arguments made by the can
vassers, who fail to subscribe and claim
that Roanoke had better get out OF her
financial trouble before she builds an
other railroad.
In conversation about the railroad
yesterday a gentlemen of wide expert.
ence and observation pointed to Rich
mond as an example, and said that Vir.
ginia's capital city owed her present
great prosperity to herself alone. That
after the war she was a ruined town,
with no commerce and no manufactures.
She was nothing but the capital of the
Confederacy. Foreign capital held aloof
and Northern men OF wealth Stunned
her as they would pest house. Rich
mond went to work with utter ruin
staring her in the face, and by her own
unaided exertions built competitive
lines Of railroads, factories and whole
sale stores and an uncontinued flow OF
prosperity followed.
He also cited Atlanta as another
Southern town that built herself up to
greatness by her own efforts in railroad
building. To come near home. Bristol,
the border city, was only sleepy little
hamlet until the s. A. 81 o. was built,
AMI every body knows what Roanoke was
before the great Shenandoah Valley
brought her in close communication
with the wealth of the North and East

a BRILLIANT career is being predicted
for Hon Thomas S. Martin in the United
States Senate as representative from
this State, which position his superior
generalship is accredited with winning
over tine old war veteran, Gen. Fitz
Lee. Virginia Democracy has been
since the death Of Senator Barbour vir-
tually without strong party leader
and it is surmised by some that Mr.
Martin aspires to this position. He has
recognized abilities as an organizer
and with his other characteristics
he may surely be expected to be
among the chief workers for the cause
in this State. He has large follow
ing, particularly among the younger
element in the State and his recent
success is largely attributable to this
support.

coNsTABLEs' MILEAGE.

Tho Question Comes Up in Suit aginst
the County.
An appeal was filed in the superior
court yesterday in the case OF w. A.
Pardee, deputy constable, vs. The County
Of Los Angeles, case tried in Justice
Baftholomew's court in which judgment
was given by stipulation for the plaintiff.
It was suit for constable fees and lie a
test case.
Justice Bartholomew, in deciding the
case, held that the law governing the
milesge of constables is found in an act
approved March 8, 1870, 1859, 1870, page
14S. Section 23 of the act provides for
all other services the same fees as are
allowed to sheriffs for similar services.
The mileage there allowed to sheriffs
was the same as charged by the plaintiff
in this case. Section 164 of the county
government act of 1898 worked a change
in the mileage of sheriffs but did not
make any change in the mileage of con.
stables. The justice further holds that
the mileage of constables was fixed by
Law the same as the mileage then al
lowed to sheriffs, and not what sheriffs
might be allowed, either more or less, in
the future. Judgment is therefore
given for the plaintiff for $29.55 damages
and So 75 costs.

THa COURTS.

Cases on Trial Yesterday aud New Suits
Filed.
Justice 1. s. Moore OF San Pedro will
continue to dispense with justice at his
old stand in that city.
The case wherein it was sought to
oust him from Office was resumed before
Judge Van Dyke yesterday morning.
The justice was called to the stand and
explained why it was he issued an at
tachment without taking bond in the
case of the attachment of the drugstore
of g. w. Davis. He said it was because
he did not know it WAS necessary to have
bond, and that as soon as he diecov-
cred that he had made mistake the
attachment was released and property
returned to the owner.
The prosecution failing to establish
to the courts satisfaction that Justice
Moore had displayed his ignorance will
fully or maliclously, the case was dis
missed.
Judge Pierce yesterday continued the
pleas of John Carter and Joseph Brady,
charged with burglary, until Monday
next.
The counsel of Billy Young made an
Intellectual attempt yesterday to keep
their client in the county jail pending
an appeal to the supreme court, but
Judge Pierce would not consent to it.
He denied a motion for stay OF execu-
ton until the bill of exceptions is set
tied, and overruled a motion for cer-
ti6cate OF probable cause. Young will
therefore be taken at once to San Quen-
tin.
Judge Pierce yesterday granted de-
cree of foreclosure in the case of Il. III.
Heath We, J. B. de Adams for $500.
Judge W. H. Clark held court yester-
day for the first time since his serious
illness. The Judge has improved very
