ARE THEY ALL HYP0CRITeS? JUDGE
ROBINSON AND PASSES.

Is there man elected by the Fusion
ists who is not hypocrite?
This question is pertinent in view of
the fact that the grand jury Of Wayne
county has presented one or more rail-
roads for violating the Railroad Commits
sion act in giving free passes to William
Smith O'Brien Robinson, presiding judge
of the Raleigh district.
This is the same Judge Robinson who
spread broad his Phariseeism in Raleigh
a month or so ago: lifted up his voice
and thanked God he was not as other
men, namely, those who are now riding
on free passes; and instructed the Grand
Jury to present any railroad that had
violated the law by giving free passes to
public officers. As a result of Judge
Robinson's charge the grand jury sum-
moned many officials, Republicans,
Populists and Democrats to appear as
witnesses against the railroads and
swear whether or not they had received
passes.
Judge Robinson's charge and the action
Of the jury produced something like a
sensation. Some folks criticized him.
SOME didn't care anything about it, and
termed his .'braye words that secured
the enforcement of a law.that had been
generally violated" Before the court
had adjourned, it leaked out that Judge
Robinson's bosom friend, Governor Rus
sell, was conspicuous violator of the
law; then it came out that Senator
Butler, as an editor but not as Sena-
tor GO, no, God forbid'O had passes on
all the leading roads IN the State; State
Treasurer Worth lost his pocket book,
and it was found to contain passes on the
go,. 'thern and the A. and n. C. Railroad;
Jud.a !, wart, when exposed as a pass
toter nada himself ridiculous by his
silly talk and b.;s sillier actions on the
bench.-and the rest of the gang, with a
few exceptions, began Wit. one accord 10
make excuses, and to show l. ~ po
erisy.
But Judge Robinson's champion
speaking to him, said: 20, just Judge! o,
brave jurist. o, fearless patriot.
Though all the balance of the officials
are polluted with the free pass pollution,
thou art clean! Thy hands have never
been stained with the seductive paste
board! Thou hast not gone astray like
Russell and Otho Wilson, Ewart ana
Butler, Pritchard and Hal Aver. .,
upright judge, thou keepest the law, re-
fusing the so-called courtesies of rail-
roads, and keeping thyself above sus-
pieion. For that, we honor thee. But
more: Thou art just and brave judge.
We applaud thy courage in that thou
has brought high public officials before
thy court to be witnesses that they have
helped the railroads to violate the law!''

This was Just a month ago.

This was just a month ago.
A few days ago the grand jury of
Judge Robinson's own county presented
a certain railroad because it had given
passes to Judge Robinson, the very judge
whose righteous Indignation against
those who used passes had made him
Statewide reputation, for it is the only
thing he ever did to gain reputation eX-
cept to insult lawyer in Western North
Carolina. If, when the case comes up
for trial. it is established that Judge
Robinson has violated the law he sought
TO make reputation by rescuing from
''innocuous desuetude," he will deserve
and receive the contempt of every right
minded citizen in the State. If he hae
accepted passes, and then sought to en-
force the law against others. 1t woult
be fiattery to call him q hypocrite. W.

guilty of the violation Of the same Law

punish others. II he has been hiding Of

SOUTHERN SOCIETY DINNER.

Major Richard NJ. Venable, of Balti.
more, was the principal speaker in
New York last night at the eleventh
annual dinner of tie New York South
ern Society, which took place in the
Savoy Hotel and was attended by 157
he members OF the society and GO
of their friends. Elk Gov rnor Hugh
S. Thompson, of South Carolina, pres.
ident OF the society, presided, and in
troduced the speakers. The toasts aud

health of the President of the United
States. l. was drunk with new de-

which proved new feature of Southern
Society dinners. Between the courses
the following southern melodies were
rendered by those at the tables; Use

Major Venable said, in answering the
toast of what the South wanted, that
it wanted principally to he left alone.

A GOOD EASTERN SHORE STORY.

The new town of Cape Charles, down
at the southern tip of the Delaware
Chesapeake peninsula, is located on
what was, many years ago, the Airing
ton plantation, the original seat of the
Gusts family in Virginia. The planta
ion derived its name from the Earl Of
Arlington, one of the ministers OF
Charles III, and from it Ailiugton on
the Potmac was named. 1t was very
large estate and Included a number OF
the islands on the Atlantic side of the
peninsula, among them Smiths Island,
which is still in the possession of the
family. The mansion, says the East ern
Shore Herald, has long since passed
away, and no vestige of it remains, but
near its former site are two old tomb
stones, that once stood, as is customary
throughout Virginia, close to the old
homestead
Oae of the masters of Arlington, the
fourth john Custis, u ore familiarly
known as Martha Washington's father
in-iaw, married about 1706 at Queens
Creek, on York river, Frances, the cid.
est daughter OF Colonel Daniel Parke
This lady was extremely shrewish, and
her husband was likewise man of vio
lent temper. 1t is reported of hem that
they were repeatedly not on speaking
terms, and would not, for weeks at q
time, say word to one another; yet
she would always sit at the head OF The
table, as though they were loving rs
most coup'cs. Ali conversation was
carried OIL through servants. For TO-
stance, she would say to dining-room
servant.
ASK your master if he will have cof-
fee or tea, and sugar and cream" and
he would reply:
Tell your mistress that I will take
coffee, with cream and no sugar"
1t is related ofthem that upon one oc-
casion, after one of these long spells OF
silence, ne dressed himself with great
care, ordered his horse hitched to his
gig, and when it was driven to the house
door he approached Mrs. Custis, made
her profound bow, and in the m ost
dignified and respectful manner asked
her if she would like to take drive
with him.
Certainly, Mr. GUSTS certainly sir
When have you ever asked me to drive
with you before? Certainly, sir 1 will
ride with you with pleasure
Helping her into the gig, he seated
himself beside her and drove to the hay
shore, which was always beautiful
aud favorite drive, but Instead of driv-
ing along the shore he continued out
into the water. Not exactly und'r-
standing why he was driving out into
the Chesapeake bay, she said:
Where are you going, Mr.. Custit?'
ITO HI, Madam"
Drive on, sir !" she said.
Presently the water began comine in
the foot OF the gig.
'Where are you going, Mr.. Custi;
"To hi, Madam"
"Drive on, sir ?" she said.
After d while the horse began to
swim. The old high gig was almost
floating, and the water was up to the
seats.
Again l ask you, Mr.. Gusts, where
are you going? ?"
"To HI, madam"
At this he turned his horse about
and started back to the shore, saying
"If was to 60 to HI and the ID
was to come out to meet US, do not
believe you would be frightened"
mo, sir" she replied; 81 know YOU
so we'll that l am always willing and
not afraid TO go where you CO."
