the Bench.

Evidence as 10 MS belHS LIunh oh
the Bench.
The Norwood Impeachment case was
| continued before the House judiciary
Committee yesterday afternoon
Evidence as to the drunkenness of
Judge Norwood on the bench was
heard. but no action was taken on 1t.
Mr.. Allen, chairman, stated that UNI
der instruction of the committee, he
had summoned the following witnesses:
Messrs. II. l.. Cooper, Ellis Gardner
and ]. f. Henderson.
Mr.. Cooper, who is a lawyer from
Murphy, was the first examined.
Judge Allen-"State what you may
know of the official acts of Judge Nor
wood
MIR. Cooper-'I had three injunctions
heard by Judge Norwood on January
4th and others were made by him. Also
he signed a decree for sale of real es-
tate They We're signed Judge of the
Twelfth district
do you know anything of miscon-
duct of Judge Norwood"
Only that he was drunk. He was
under the influence of whiskey while
holding court at our place and had to
adjourn court on account of it.
The witness told of several other
times when Judge Norwood was, dur
ing the discharge of his official duties,
under the influence of liquor, notably
Clay court.
Mr.. Rountree-'sWas he sober when
he signed the injunctions on January
4th?"
Mr.. Cooper iddlirg so"
Mr.. Foushee-"Was his condition at
Clay court such as to interfere with
the discharge of his duties?"
Mr.. Cooper-"No, sir"
Mr.. Henderson. the Representative
from Mecklenburg, was the next wit
ness. He said:
I'm 1897 l was at Union court. Judge
Norwood was drunk on the streets, not
able to hold court He could not walk
alone. He was held up by one man
on each side. No court was held that
term The next term az court was
held in June. He was not drunk then.
In the fall of 1896 he held court
in Yancey and was so drunk he adj
journed court one or two days. He
was drunk all the time he was there
and had to be helped out of court. He
went to sleep on the bench. When ne
woke up he asked what they were
trying. They told him and he replied,
We'll, go ahead, he's guilty. He's the
fellow that hung the sack on the fence.
The lawyers then proposed to adjourn
court and it was done"
A letter, dated January 10th, from
Judge Norwood TO the sheriff of Frank
lin county, was shown. In it
Judge Norwood stated that he
was the rightfu Judge and
would hold the Franklin court if per-
nitted to do so. He therefore asked
the sheriff to recognize him.
This concluded the evidence The
committee took no action.

NEGROES PASS RESOLUTIONS.
Meeting of Emancipation Association
Address BY Prof Taylor.


Prof c. H. J. Taylor OF Atlanta, Ga,
ex-Recorder OF Deeds at Washington,
D. c., delivered an address before the
Emancipation Association of this State
ieet was the Problem of the American
iect was the problemo t the American
Republic These he considered were
expansion, education and religion. He
opposed expansion. He considered the
policy as disastrous TO the interest of
the Republic. The question of edUca-
ton was one Of great importance TO the
negro race. The negro must become
educated like the white people, and then
there will be no clash He did not urge
social equality, but by the negro becom-
ing thoroughly educated he would be i'll
Il position 10 have his ability recognized.
He spoke of the necessity of friendship
existing between he races.
Religion was another serious problem,
he considered. He thought the negroes
of the protestant churches should take
a more aggressive stand en- the Catholic
religion would make gCaat inFoads IN
their numbers,
Prof. Taylor was given reception ut
POI Wilmington street after MS speech
at the court house.
The meeting which was large one,
passed some very sensible resolutions,
the gist of which is as follows:
'That when bosses and tricksters
have whipped the negro in line it has
been to his disadvantage in religion,
morality, education and i'll financial con-
dition, while in places where the negro
has followed a modest and wise leader
ship, prosperity has followed.
''That all colored people use their in
fluence for popular education, and ask
that more money be appropriated by
the State for the negro training school.
THAT a reformatory for youthful
criminals be established, also n curfew
law for children.
THAT the colored people buy homes
and small tracts of land,
'"rhat less money be spent for whis-
key, tobacco and dress. and that more
attention be given to religion"
The resolutions We're signed by the
following committee: n L. Roberts
Berry O'Kelly, N. c. Bruce, G. y. Will
Hams, l.. h. Capehart w &. Pearson.
John Merrick, A. NJ. Moore and Chas
III. Boyer.
