FIGHTING THE Blue LAWS.
The SeabOard Air Line VIII Garry
Express on Sunday.

Raleigh, N. c., Aug. N-The Southern
Express Company has brought action
against the Seaboard Air Line in order to
fight the decision Of the Asheville magis-
trate that no express matter save perish
able articles can be transported In North
Carolina on trains on Sunday.
The Seaboard Air Line and Southern
railway have both issued notices to the
Southern Express Company that orders
had been issued forbdding the carrying
of such express matter. Last Sunday this
order went into effect and was rigidly car
ried out. Judge Robinson to-day, upon ap-
plication of Fleming q. duBignon Of GeOr-
gia, and +. H. Busbee Of Raleigh, attor-
neys for the Southern Express Company
granted an order restraining the Seaboard
Air Line from refusing to carry express
matter on Sunday. 1t is set forth in the
express companys plea for a restraining
order that it has a contract with the Sea-
board Air Line for the transportation Of
express matter on double daily trains, in
Guiding Sundays that the enforcement Of
the order would be most disastrous to
its business, and that the carrying matter
on Sundays is not violation of the state
code.
The case will be argued before Judge
Robinson, at GoldsborO, Sept. 10, and in
the meantime there will be no stoppage Of
Sunday express traffic Of any kind.
