Washington, March 1.-The decision
of Judge Rodgers at Fort Smith, Ark,
yesterday, holding the United States
meat inspection law unconstitutional,
apparently causes no concern to officials
OF the agricultural department under
whose administration the law is being
executed. They regard the decision as
largely technical in character, which
will not effect the practical operations
Of the law, when applied to the inspec-
tion OF meats, intended for interstate
traffic or export to foreign countries.

1t is questionable if any school south

DIR. BOYKIN TO MIR. HOLT.
The Following Letter Will Have a
Wide Interest.
Baltimore. August %. 1898

Mr. l.. Banks Holt, Faison, N. c.:
Dear Sir: / wish to thank you for
the statement | see published in the
News and Observer, of the 24th inst,
giving in substance an account of your
experience in farming. This statement
reminds me very fOrcibly of one made
by Mr. Westbrook, Faison, N. c., about
a year ago, giving his success in raising
berries and other fruits on his farm.
l especially wish to thank you for the
statement in the interest of the farm
ers of North Carolina. Such letters,
particularly from representative men,
must necessarily awaken a greater in
terest in farming, than we have had
heretofore. 1t is very common thing
to hear people say that no special effort
is made in farming, because of want
of success in such work. If men like
yourself and Mr.. Westbrook have sue
ceeded, as you have done, on your farm,
why do not others succeed likewisef
We all know that the wealth of the
country, comes out of the soil, and when
ever the farming community, of your
State. or of any other country under
stand this, we may expect prosperity in
all other branches.
Very truly yours,
T. J. BOYKIN.

JUDGE ADAMS AT HOME.
His County Paper Truly Says He is
Unfit to Deliver Charge to Virtu-
GUS Jury.
Milton News.)


Milton News.)
We blush to comment upon these tive
charges. and are sorry that such Ian
guage originated from Al judicial bench
We refrain comment on the first clause
that mine times out of ten if you chase
down the fellows who are going about
trying to stir up race prejudice you will
find them sleeping with a negro woman,
only to say that it was a willful and
malici0usly false charge upon the purity
virtue and intelligence of our State; for
such compose the thousands who are
working for white supremacy in our
country.
But as to the charge that rape was a
lesser crime than seduction, but for the
seriousness of the statement and conse-
quences involved. it would be ridiculous;
as it is, it not only shows depravity, but
lack of the first principles of law and
equity. While we are no lawyer, yet
common sense teaches us that there is a
difference between force and submits
sion, and our observation teaches us
that in the case of seduction the Sc
duced and the scducer are always on
the same moral level; and, further, that
the seducer is as apt to be the woman
as the man, and in all cases the seduced
is a party to the crime. But the origin
and the act of rape lies only in the pol
luted mind and brutal power of the
fiend, which may, and more often does,
manifest itself against the most unsus-
pecting victim. 1t is hell-born desire,
created by lustful passion and enforced
by brute strength against purity and
helplessness-regardl of the submits
sion of its victim. And is just as apt
to take as its victim your wife, your
daughter or your sister, as tits Il de
PRAYED wretch. Away with such teach
ing. a school boy who could interpret
law no better than this ought to be ex-
PEELED from the primary class, and the
judge who would not, ought to be driven
from the bench as unfit to deliver a
charge to an intelligent and virtuous
jury.

NHLEY SIGHTED HIS PREY
CERVERA IS AT SANTIGO.
The Commodore states That He
Himself Has Recognized the Ven-
sells of the Spanish Fleet-Offcimi

Washington, May 3O.-At 1890 o'clock
this Monday morning the navy depart
ment received dispatch from Commo-
dore Schley announcing definitely that he
had located Admiral Cervera's Cape Verde
squadron in the bay of Santiago de Cuba
The commodore states that he himself
had recognized the vessels of the Spanish
feet
While naval officials have been moder-
ately certain for several days that Ger
yeras squadron was in the harbor of San
tiago, the official announcement from
Commodore Schley was received by the of,
fcers on duty at the department with in
tense satisfaction. Assurance is now
doubly sure that the Spanish fleet is bot
tied up and the cork is in the bottle. 1t
is not believed that Cervera will attempt
to escape from the predicament in which
he now finds himself, as such course
would surely result in the destruction of
his vessels and the loss Of many lives
precious to Spain. The suggestion is
made, however, that the Spaniards may
blow up the ships rather than have them
fall into the hands of schley, as they GER
tainly will if they remain in the harbor.
