The election contest yesterday de-
v,lupcd couple oc more disputes
Witch the court had ,u be called upon
tu aliudicate.
Edward Filler tax collector of the
I'uSt ward was on the stand testify
irg from his books as To- whether or
not certain voters Of tnat ward had
paid him taxes as they had alleged
when being examined. Senator Me-
Donald. cn cruss-eNamination, wanted
to show that in u number of instances
therr were discrepancies in names and
that while the book might not credit
,hiS on that man with having paid his
taxes the fact was that he hed paid
them. but by Il clerical error his name
had not beer DrOperly entered. as for
instance when in answer TO Mr.. Ham
iltou's questions the collector would
say that John J. Smith If a certain
street and number had not paid any
taxes. senator Mcdonald would try
to show that John F. Smith of the
samh address appeared on the books
rs having settled his debt with the
state and county.
Mr. Hamilton objected To this and
when Commissioner Duggan ovcrrulcd
I,
Edwards promptly sustained the COM
misSSiOne".
FITIHENRN CALLED.
Later in the Gay Patrick FItzhenry,
of the Southwest district of Lacku-
wanna township, was called to the
stand and although he testified that he
lid not vote at last falrs election.
Mr. Hamilton insisted on examining
him. senator Mcdonald objected,
quoting a ruling OF Judge Archibald to
sustain his position. CunmissiIrc'
Dusgan sustained the objection and
again Mr. Hamilton moved to have the
matter certified to court.
Commissioner Duggan refused to
certify it, saving that court bad al
ready acted on the matter. Mr.. Ham
iltOn thereupon took the matter up
on affidavit
After hearing the case stated Judge
Edwards was disposed TO be q trine
tart in his remarks. He dismissed the
matter very summariiy and told Mr..
Hamilton in unreserved terms that he
should not take up the time of the
court with his frivolous objections.
But for the pointed remarks of the
court a third case would, probably.
have been taken up for adiudicat ton.
Tax Collector John j. Coyne, OF Lack
awanna township. did not have his
state and county duplicate with him
bat was prepared to give the informa-
ton wanted with the assistance of .

taxes which he collects, state. county,

brought this book along because the

ranged than in the book furnished him

MIR. COYNE REFUSED.
Mr. Hamilton wanted To examine the
book, but Mr.. COyne refused to let him

have him cited for contempt nut Mr..

LAW GIVES 1T THE POWER
MIR. PEARSON ALREADY HAS
THE RESOLUTION.
STRONG SENTIMENT IN FAVOR or IT
II The Commission Does not Fix the Matter The
Legislature Win be Asked to do so. Equal
Accommodations to be Provided
For the Two Races.

II now looks as If North Carolina, like
most Of the other southern States, is
soon to have separate cars for white snd
colored people.
This can be done by either the Legis-
lature or the Railroad Commission. II
the one does not do 1t the other very
probably viii.
At the next session Of the Commission
4 resolution ordering AN railroads IL he
State to provide separate cars for the
two races will be introduced by Commits
sioner John H. Pearson. This resolution
has already been drawn and viii doubt
less be adopted by the Commission.
Ii it is not the Legislature will be
asked 10 pass d law similar 10 that now
in force in South Carolina or Georgia.
For long time there has been among
the travelling public a growing scnsi-
ment in favor Of such d law, and the
campaign just closed having been fought
out on this line. they viii follow mp
the victory and urge the passage of a
Jim Crow-Car Law
The resolution to be introduced at the
next meeting of the Railroad Commission
prescribes equal accommodations for
both races. though in separate cars. Such
i law. Mr.. Pearson thinks. could not he
objected to by either race.
The only question, therefore, Is as 10
how ii would affect the railroads. Ii.
as in nearly every other State in the
Union. All fares were made the same
say 8 cents mile instead of 81 and
3Is as now, the railroads would have to
run 30 more cars than at present But
If the two classes Of fares are main
tanned il viii be necessary to run at least
three ears instead Of two, as there must
be one first class car for each race. nm
less the first class ear be divided in the
middle as would be done with the second
class coach.
However these details may be settled,
ii is pretty certain that North Carolina
viii at an early date have separate cars
for the races, and III is very likely that
il viii be the Railroad Commission and
not the Legislature that Will have them
provided.

WRECK NEAR HAW RIVER.
Trains on the Southern Railway Delayed
Several Hours.

The east-bound passenger trains on the
Southern Railway which arrives here at
$40 d. IN. ran into and wrecked a
local freight train near Haw River sta
tion Thursday evening. The road was
blocked, and trains both ways we're de-
layed several hours. The passenger
train which ran into the freight did not
reach here till 8 o'clock at night.
The engineer OF the passenger train
was noticed at Haw River by the flag
man Of the local freight to be on the
lookout for that train. which. he said,
was on the HILL The local freight was
about n mile and half from Haw
River. loading cross ties when the pas
senger train flashed around sharp
curve, at the rate of thirty miles an
hour. dashing into the caboose, plunging
clear through it into a freight car, and
also wrecking the car in front OF it.
Merchandise from these ears was scat
tered in every direction.
The first intimation that the passen-
gers had of the danger was the sudden
stonpage Of the train. The porter who
was standing in the aisle of the second
coach was thrown violently against the
door ana Astd some OF MS f1DS nfoheh,
None of the passengers were injured,
but were severely shaken up.
The engineer Of the passenger train
was Mr. John Ripley, OF Burlington,
and is one of the Oldest engineers on the
road, having been in service FOR forty
years. He did not find the local train
whore he expected, and concluding ii had
gone on to Mebane, put en- full head of
steam. The curve, was SO sharp that
he did not have time to stop his train.
He stood ut his post. like the hero he is.
though his fireman jumped.

WHEAT AS A MONEY CROP.
Georgia Farmers Advised to Raise Less
Cotton.

The Commissioner of Agriculture for
Georgia, is urging upon the farmers of
that State. particularly those in the
middle and upper sections of the State,
the Importance Of planting a large wheat
crop.
THE conditions are such that there is
little or no hope for any material adj
vance in the price of cotton for the pres
ent crop" he says, land even should
there be decided reduction in the acre
age of cotton next year, so large will be
the surplus carried over from the ac
emulation of two very heavy crops in
succession that prices will III all proba-
bility be very low for the crop that will
be grown in 1899. With such prospect
ahead, the thoughtful farmer will seek
for some other crop than cotton, from
which he may hope for ut least moder-
ate reward for his labor. The growing
of wheat seems to offer relief from the
thralldom of cotton. As a money crop
wheat is just as available as cotton, for
there are buyers ready to take it Mt its
market value in every town.
My advice, therefore, is to plant as
soon as possible a large acreage in
wheat Select your best land; break it
deeply though do not bring the subsoil
clay to the SURFACED; harrow, and il
necessary re-harrow until you get all
humps and clods up; then either drill or
broadcast the seed, covering lightly
For fertilizing apply either stable or cow
manure or If without these. use 200
pounds of good acid phosphate and 100
pounds of kainit per acre; and when the
wheat starts to growing off in the spring
broadcast from 30 to 70 pounds Of sub
nitrate of soda to the acre"
