REVENUE OFFICERS NOT SIR
KNIGHTS.

Some revenue officers in the effort to
magnify their bravery, are OVERRIDING
the business. The charge of big gang
of "white caps" doing a wholesale bust
ness in Johnston county turns out to
have been greatly exaggerated. The
Chatham Record this week denounces
sensational rumors which are ISLANDERS
upon the good people of Chatham
county" 1t had been printed that there
existed in Chatham county, near the
Wake line, ga secret and dangerous or
ganization among 'moonshiners' and
their accomplices, and that they are
burning and destroying a great deal of
property" The Record says there is no
truth in this statement.
People appreciate the peril in the
duties of a revenue officer. In his effort
to be regarded as a knight of the chival-
ric age, he need not think the people are
fools enough to believe all the yarns he
tells. Ia the days Of King Arthur. there
were no telegraph lines or railroads.
Big tales were swallowed in that day
truth can put on its boots to overtake
error sooner now than then.

holders find present conditions just
to their liking. 1t is not sur
prislng that they protest that "we
are suffering from plethora of cur
rency". The strange thing is that those
outside the bond and gold ring are con-
WINGED that this sort of operation is good
for them and the people at large.
The deal with the bond syndicate is
most humiliating to every sense of ma
tional pride, in that it shows that the
banks are bigger than the government,
and that 70 them the highest officers
must turn to protect the credit of the
Republic.
Tomorrow we shall discuss how this
condition was selfshly brought about,
and show that, unless there is a radical
departure from the methods proposed by
the bankers and other advocates of the
gold standard, the day will never come
when the government, which ought to
be supreme, will not have to pay tribute
to great bankers and gold spectators.

CoNKLING,s WONDERFUL MEM
DRY.

AS illustrating the power of memory
the New York Times recalls the speech
of Roscoe Conkling made in that city in
1880. 1t filled nine or ten columns OF
the small type used by the Times. The
reporters present had bundle of galley
proofs of the speech and followed him
line by line. During the entire speech
Mr.. Conkling made no reference to note
or manuscript, but delivered the speech
from memory without the variation of
a word. He loved to have his audiences
think that he was so full man that he
could speak exhaustively without pre-
paration. Commenting on this 1880
speech the Times says:
"Still more remarkable, perhaps, as
illustrating the power of a cultivated
memory, was the one departure from the
proofs by the speaker, which was not a
variation by failure of memory, but a
striking exercise of memory quite as in
teresting as the committing of fifteen or
eighteen thousand words. After Mr..
Conkling had delivered about two col
umns of his speech as he had sent it to
the printer, he skipped about a column
and a half, which he transferred to a
place nearer the end of the argument,
where it became more effective for his
purpose. In making the change be did
not vary so much as one word from the
language of the proofs held by the re-
porters."

INQUIRIES FOR JUDGE EwART.

If Judge Ewart is correct in his con-
struction of the law of contempt then,
1. Why did not that able and upright
lawyer who tried the Shemwell case send
to Jail few of the editors who criticized
his refusal to move that case2
2. Why has not the majority of our
Supreme Court sent score Of editors to
jail who criticized their decision in Carr
VS.. Coke
8. Why can not the editor of the eau
casian be sent to Jail for criticizing the
decision of the United States Supreme
Court in the income tax cases
4. If all the editors who have criti-
ci8ed some decision of some court within
the last two years were sent to Jail, how
many of that fraternity would now be
out enjoying the sweet pure air of liber-
ty, running their papers 2
5. Subdivision Z of Section 648 Of the
Code provides thata person may be pun
ished for contempt for "the publication
of grossly inaccurate reports of the pro-
ceedings in any court, about any
trial, or other matter pending
before said court, made with intent to
misrepresent or to bring into contempt
said court" does this section contem-
plate the punishment of an editor who
simply expresses an opinion honestly
held by MIN regarding decision of a
iudoe

ONE of the orators in favor of divid-
ing Richmond county bears the name of
Dink Snick, and the Laurinburg Ex-
change says he "made vigorous speech
for the division, and appeared to voice
the sentiment of his hearers" This
name is presented to the New York Sun
to go along with that of Dink Bolts, and
other new statesmen, whose merits are
carefully preserved by Editor Dana.

ALL signs point to Fusion again next
year between the Republicans and Popa-
lists. Having learned how to get some
offices by holding principles in abey-

they now have principles to trouble

Populists and Republicans, who believe
in something, submit to be led further
by machine which advertises its aban-

so interfered with our rOOm-making sales,
we deem it wise to advise our customers
that the renOvating of our store rooms
will be postponed a Week or so later
than August LIST in order that we may
further reduce our stock of dry goods
and kindred wares. We prefer to sell
the goods rather than have them injured
by lime dust and wOrkmen. Everybody
should avail themselves of this great Op-
portunity to buy dry goods.

A few days ago there were re-
ceived at Nogales five car loads of
silver ores which came up from
Mazatlan en- route to smelters in
Colorado They were from mines
which have been shut down a long
time awaiting better prices for sill

a conclusion that is useless to wait
and will hereafter ship regularly
It is estimated that about ten cars
weekly will come from that source.
