TAR HEEL PIE-HUNTERS
THERE ARE SEVERALs0F THEM NOW AT
WASHINGTON.
Linney's Folks Want Revenue tlobs--Whte's
Want ConsuIships and XII Gudger
Wants Anything Good Lord"

Washington, July 14.-(Special) Con
gressman Linney to-day got a telegram
from w. G. Shaw, of Wilkes county,
asking that in view of the fact that
Deputy Collectors of Internal Revenue
have been exempted from civil service
by recent order of President Mckinley,
that Wilkes and Surry counties be per-
mitted to present several candidates for
deputy collectors from those two coun~
ties. A committee from Wilkes and
Surry will be here next week to talk
over the matter and to also suggest GER
tain postal changes.
Congressman White is a hustler He
was at the Treasury department to-day
and introduced to Secretary Gage Prof
Robt. Taylor, of Wilmington.
Prof. Taylor desires to be appointed
superintendent for the construction of
government buildings at Wilmington.
He is strongly indorsed by Congressman
White
A big batch of consulate appointments
were sent to the Senate to-day, but the
udlle OL IeN. hl NuuSeF was not among
the number. And thus once again the
Rev. Ki is disappointed, but he is not
without hope.
Senator Pritchard was at the White
House to-day and saw the President in
behalf of Ki.
1t is not known that the Senator ,e-
ceived very encouraging information. It
is understood that the Rev. XII wants
to be consul to Panama. This office
will not be filled until after adjournment.
There are others after it besides Ki.
who left for home tonight.
Congressman White is working hard
to secure two consulate appointments.
He is urging the Rev. Owen L. w.
Smith, OF Wilson, for minister to LII
IBERIA and he is also pressing the claims
of Capt. John p. Leach, OF Littleton,
for a place in the foreign service. Capt.
Leach wanted to go to Victoria, but
failed to land. 4 ati -3s4A1#"@

to, we do not believe for one
moment, has any intention of
coming to the rescue, except as
an alternative to the foreclosure
of the governments lien and the
naturalization of the road.
When Cleveland was president
before there was a great hue and
cry about the enforcement of the
governments rights. But the
agitation had little purpose
other than the manufacture of
political buncombe. Many al
legged statesmen made records,
then Harrison came into office,
and, excepting the ubiquitous
and long-memoried populist,
straightway everybody conven-
iently forgot that the Pacific
railroads owed the government
a debt which they neither tried
nor intended to pay.

Politics and Trades Unions.

Politics and Trades Unions.
The Railway Times official
organ, of the A. r. o., CON-
menting on organized labor
going into politics, says that
there are those who deplore the
discovery of any intimation
that organized labor is drifting
into politics, and one of the
number is the editor of the
Coast Seaman's Journal, who
believes the "result of the re-
cent election is ground of
hope for the FUTURE" To be
cheerful, to have hope spring.
ing eternally under ones vest,
are really good things-to re-
gard defeat as a victory is an
other factor ofjoyfulness. In the
late electionn, says the c. S. J.,
"the main question was be-
tween the masses and the
classes, and organized labor
was true to the former. And
this without going Into poll
tics as trades unionists." Leav-
ing out of the question any
reference to organization, we
have men, free men, sovereign
citizens whose high preroga-
tives are to 60 into politics; in
deed, unless they abdicate their
sovereignty as a thing of no
consequence whatever, they
are always in politics; but it,
appears, the moment they be-

out of politics-mustkeepthe their
mouths closed about parties,
must cease to be political par
tisans, for fear if they assert
their manhood their sovereign
prerogative to advocate the
principles and policy of one
party against those announced
by another party, trades unions
will suffer. Take for instance
trusts, the colossal curse of the
times. A political party-and
it must be a political party-is
organized to eradicate the curse.
Now, then, a trades unionist
may vote to remove the trust
abominati0n, but not as
trades unionist. He may vote
with party proclaiming it's
hostility to trusts, but not as
trades unionist, because
that would be taking
trades unions into politics.
partisan politics-as if a politi-
cal measure of any description
could be enacted into law with
out "a political party to force it
through a law-making body.
Indeed, the contention is. if a
trades union should resolve,
first, that trusts are abnormal
monsters of iniquity, that their
policy is piracy, that they con-
troll the government, and
threaten the liberties of the
people; and, second, this trades
union will affiliate with the
political party pledged to crush
the curse, such resolution
would utterly destroy that
trades union, because it's patri
otto action had taken it into
politics. But such a disaster
could not occur unless some
trades unionist was in favor of
trusts and regarded them as
blessing to the country-and
Just how much benefit such a
member would be to trades
unions, only the gods could de-
ternine. Labor is profoundly

lation, in havinginfamous laws

which is what the present con-
ditiOn amounts to. But it will
be great pity to permit the
present opportunity to slip by
for so favorable an experiment
in government operation.
The United States is the only
civilized nation in the world that
does not own and run it's own
railroads. That our situation
is in the rear and not at the
front of the procession is proven
by the fact that all other coun-
tries, beginning with corpora
ton ownership, have discarded
that system for naturalization.
There can be no possible argu-
ment against the foreclosure of
the government mortgage on
the Union Pacific and it's opera
ton by the government. Even if
government operation were an ex-
pertinent, which, in the light of
the results in other countries, it
cannot be assumed to be, it
could easily be abandoned at
any time if proven unsuccessful
or contrary to public policy, and
the road sold, as in the regular
course of business, under the
present system, it will have to
be, and as it ought to have been
years ago when it first defaulted
in it's interest payments to the
government. There is no danger
of failure though. Uncle Sam
has had repeated experience in
railroading, and he has never
vet tailed to make a success of it.
True, he has never gone into the
business to make money for him.
self. but on that account there is
all the more reason for believing
that if he can take a bankrupt
road and put it on it's feet, as he
has done so often, he can take a
great through system, already
paying, and not only keep it up,
but either increase profits or de-
crease tariffs. There can be no

way as 10 make, with the aid of this in
strument, the most delicate records of the
appearance of the celestial lights and as
certain their composition.
What may be expected from the new in
strument is indicated by the information
gained on the first evening of observation
The instrument was turned on the moon
as the nearest, and, in MANY respects, the
most interesting Of our celestial neigh
bors. Considerable excitement has been
aroused in astronomical circles by reports
from Paris that the observers there de-
tected or, thought they detected, appear
ances in the moon indicating the presence
OF water and vegetation The accepted
theory is that the moon is Il dead world,
having no atmosphere, and if there is any
water, it has retired to the interior of our
celestial companion. The observations
through the Yerkes telescope confirm this
opinion, for though much detail hitherto
unobseryed came into view, no indications
were observed of atmosphere, water or
vegetation. 1t is anticipated that very
interesting discoveries will be made with
regard TO Mars. The advance in tele-
scopes has been followed by a correspond
ing increase of knowledge with regard to
this remarkable planet, and the public in
terest aroused through the discoveries of
the astronomers and the speculations of
imaginative writers, has led to lively

Some Big Telescopes.

The opening of the Yerkes Observatory
was one of the most notable events in the
history of modern astronomy, for the tele-
scope then put in operation is the most
powerful instrument that has ever been
turned 10 the heavens. The distinguish
ed American astronomers who, from
many institutions, gathered at the observ-
atory had an opportunity such as was
never Offered to astronomers before, for
the enormous power of the 10-inch object
glass brought into view details ON the
moon and planets to a degree never equal
ed by any glass previously constructed.
The 1erkes Observatory so called from
its founder, is probably the most perfectly
equipped observing station in the world
whether considered with regard to its sit
uation, to the number of its Instruments
