A Sweeping Law.

Business and legal circles are
much exercised over the following
law which was passed by the late
Fusion Legislature and was rati-
fed and went into effect on March
18th:
An Act to regulate assignments
and other conveyances Of like
nature in North Carolina.
The General Assembly of Moth
Carolina do enact.
SECTION /. That all conditional
sales, assignments, mortgages OF
deeds in trust, which are executed
to secure any debt, obligation note
or bond which gives preference to
any creditor of the maker, shall
be absolutely void as to existing
creditors. "
SEC. 2. That all laws in con-
iict with this act are hereby re-
pealed. .....1
Upon its face this law declares
very mortgage or other like in
'trument in valid as to all debts
The maker may owe at the time be
Executes the instrument. This
substantially puts an end to the
business Of borrowing money up

The plain reading Of the law
prohibits mortgages and trust
deeds of any character unless ey-
cry debt due by the maker at the
time of the execution Of the in
.tument is included in its pro-
risions.-News and Observer.

Knows Where to Build.

1t is extremely doubtful if any citizen
of Arizona has had greater experience
in building fine residences for himself
than Col. Fitch. He has lived and
built in various states, territories and
climates, as the health of Mrs. Fitch
has not been robust for several years.
In selecting site for permanent home
in Arizona Mr.. Fitch showed excellent
judgment in deciding upon the Simms
Addition. His residence there will cost
$4,000 and will be second to none in
the territory in excellence of design,
material and arrangement.

property had been stolen for the pro-
visions he visited all the hobo camps.
Then he went on to the river and dis
covered tracks iuthe moist ground of a
light wheeled vehicle. He followed on
across the river until he reached a
Mexican settlement and the end of the
road, where gravelike stiffness pre-
vailed. Satisfied that the rig had not
come SO far and possibly not in that
direction at all, he returned to the city.
Billy Moore was still bewailing the loss
OF his property. He accompanied tn e
marshal to the precise spot where he
said the horse had been hitched and,
exactly ten feet from that particu-
lar spot it stood. The marshal, sore
from his seven mile ride, was inclined
to be indignant and obiurgatory, but
the righteousness of the situation and
Moore's chagrin were stronger than
anger.
An examination of the contents of
the cart showed that the $50 worth of
groceries and provisions had resolved
itself into pound of Japan tea, which
Mr.. Moore admitted was all it had or
iginally contained.

THEY ARE FREE MEN.
BurSOn and Hamilton Dis
missed Yesterday.
An Almost Fatal Chain of Circum-
stances and One of the Most Sim
guIar Outside of Fiction.

James Burson and Norris Hamilton
the two men arrested on suspicion Of
having assisted in the escape of Price
and Young from the county Jail, were
released yesterday after having been
locked up exactly week. They were
discharged on the motion of District
Attorney Millay who stated that the
territory had been unable to secure
enough evidence against them to war
rant their holding to the grand jury.
1t appears that however strong the sus-
picion may have been the only thing in
the shape of actual evidence was the
gun which had been bought by Hamil-
ton for stranger on the night of the
jail break and which was afterward
found in the possession OF Price and
Young. That the saws found on the
fugitives had been introduced into the
jail by either of the defendants was
purely a matter of suspicion which
seems to have been based mainly on the
circumstance that they had been en-
ployed about the Jail and partly On the
circumstance that it was suspected Bur-
son felt strong sympathy for Price.
This latter suspicion in its turn seems
to have been as baseless as the former,
and had no other ground than that on
the morning OF Shurbert's murder, Bur-
son was heard to say to Price: eff you
kill him (Shurbert) today l can swear
that 1t was justifable homicide" The
witness though, who heard this express
sion. believed it was made in fun and
without any thought that Price was
meditating murder.
1t was never shown that Burson felt
i'll will toward Shurbert or that he was
or could have had motive for conspir-
ing in Shurbert's death or subsequently
in the escape of his murderer.
The chain of circumstances about
these two defendants was strange al
most beyond record. The first link in
it was that unfortunate and careless
expression by Burson on the morning
of October 2. The next was the fact
that he and Hamilton should have
been afJerward associated and working
about the Jail at the time of the escape
and some time before. The third is
that Hamilton of all others should have
been the man to whom a stranger ap
piled for assistance in buying the gun
destined for the use of Price.
There were general expressions of
satisfaction yesterday on the discharge
of these men. Strong as the suspicion
against them was everybody hoped
that they might be shown to be inno-
cent. Both are hard working mechan-
les and men of good reputation. Their
case, both before the United States
commissioner and so far as it had gone
IN the Justices examination. was skill
fully and creditably managed by their
attorney, Geo. Percy Billiard
