Mr.. Allen, of Wayne. 1t being pub
lished that Mr.. Winston favored the
bill, it might be inferred that Judge Al
len and Mr.. Ray prevented its considera-
tion. We are informed that Mr.. Win
ston, who was chairman Of the sub
committee, never called the committee
together to consider the BILL About
that time he was much occupied with
work on the election law and that may
account for his failure to call the com
mittee together.
Judge Allen thought the bill as pre-
scented was Objectionable, and he claimed
that it gave too much license to UNI
scrupulous editors. If the bill had
been considered he intended to offer a
substitute for IT.
The editors do the work in cam
paigns; lay themselves liable TO heavy
damages by exposing the record of ras
Gals: and vet when united and solid they
cannot get Il decent and just law
through the Legislature.
But they will again and again take
up and carry ''thd white mans burden"
even if under an antiquated and worn
out law they have to go TO Jail for
doing it,

CONTEST MANIA SPREADS

The LAST RECRUIT.
Applied to Attorney General Yesterday 70
Permission TO Begin Quo
Warranto

The news has spread even to the tops
of the Alleghanies that Captain Billie
is persuaded that he has struck lie
in the barren wastes of the State Con-
stitution. The penny drills are being
piled merriy. The very latest addi-
ton to the >throng is w. II. Wilson,
clerk of the Western Criminal Court
Circuit. that used to be, before the late
General Assembly wiped it out. SO keen
was Mr.. Wilson to rush to the fray
that he did not attempt to hold on to
the office and allow the new clerk to in
stitute proceedings. He begins the
suit himself.
On yesterday Attorney General Wal
ser. who says he is not worried over
such applications, granted Mr.. Wilson
permission to begin quo warranto pro-
ceedings against Mr.. John \. Jordan,
of Asheville, the new clerk. to try the
title to the clerkshp of the Western
Criminal Circuit. The Attorney Gen
eral handed out the necessary permits
sion and Mr. Wilson is now at liberty
to light the fuse.

MISS CAMILLE D'ARVILLE.
She Appears in the "Highwayman
Next Tuesday Night.

The Broadway Theatre Opera Com
pany is headed by Miss Camille D'Ar-
vile, VINO in The Highwayman, De-
Koven x Smiths latest and most sue
cessful comic opera, to be heard at the
Academy of Music next Tuesday night,
takes the part of an adventuresome
young lady of quality, who for sake OF
the hero, dons the garb of freebooter
and holds up a real stage coach in or
der to recover his pardon, which has
been withheld by an enemy. The part
is especially fitted to Miss D'Arvi!e's
natural attachments of voice and fig
ure and she assumes the braggadocio
of a daring young blade, it is said. in Il
manner thoroughly convincing. From
all accounts Miss D'Arvile eIcels in
parts where she has to reverse her sex,
and makes q better figure than one
usually sees when Il prima donna as
sumes sub a role. 1t is said that in the
scene where she stops the stage coach
one almost forgets that it is only Il
woman with brace of empty pistols,
with such dramatic force does
she play the part. Reserve seats now

FAyORS NOMINATING MEBANE.
The Charlotte Observer Would Like to
See MIR. Mebane Kept in Office

referring in deserved terms of COM
incubation of Superintendent of Schools
MCbame's advice to Fusion boards Of
education to retire without a struggle.
the Charlotte Observer says
And this makes it opportune to say
something that has been in mind for
several months: The Democratic par
ty held out the olive branch to the
Populists and white Republicans last
year and promised them not to be pro-
scriptive if it were given power. 1t
would be well enough for it to give
some dCfinitc proof of its sincerity in
declaring its willingness to let by
cones be by-gones. Mr.. Mebane is n
populist-but ne has not carried poll
tics into his office or into his discharge
of his official duties. He has been an
exceedingly dilig5nt official; an inteli-
gent and capable one. Why should
not the Democratic party next year
nominate him for the position he now
holds? This would be an olive branch,
indeed, to the Populists: it would be
good politics and ii would be right 1t
would prove! the Democratic party to
be a party of forgiveness and Of
breadth and it's influence upon the POI
litieal atmosphere of the State would
be wholesome.

GAVE UP VOLUNTARILY
AND WITHOUT CONSULTING
HIS ATTORNEYS.
HE GAVE AS HIS REASON FOR IT THAT
He had Concluded Mr.. Lacy Was Entitled
to The Place and The Contest Was
MOI N He ;I<;,o
Not to His Liking.

At half past three o'clock yesterday
afternoon ]. Y. Hamrick voluntarily
turned over the office of Commissioner
of Labor to b. II. Lacy, Commissioners
elect of Labor and Printing Mr.. Lacy
Immediately took charge.
As this paper stated from the first.
Mr.. Hamrick had no heart in the CON
test and in turning the office over to
Mr.. Lacy he declared, This business
is not to my liking" All Of which is II
credit to Mr.. Hamricks Judgment and
his sense of public and political proprie-
ty i'll a State official.
Mr.. Hamrick took the step of his own
free will, without consulting his attor-
neys and to the surprise of all parties
TO the contest 10 say that his action
was bomb in the Fusion camp is to
put it mildly.
About o'clock yesterday afternoon
Mr.. Hamrick went by the Mechanics
Dime Savings Bank and informed
Mr.. Lacy that if he would be on hand
at $3.50 he would surrender the Office
and turn over the keys TO him. Mr..
Lacy was on hand at the time men
toned. Mr.. Hamrick called in Libra
rian Sheriff. and stated in his presence
that he surrendered the office volunta-
rily, and because he did not like the
business of contesting. He also said
in explanation of his decision that Mrs
Hamrick was very i'll and he was
obliged to leave for home Immediately,
and preferred to have the matter set
tied before going. Mr.. Lacy called his
attention to the fact that he could bring
an action later if he wished to try the
title to the office.
Mr.. Hamrick subsequently, refused to
say anything for publication further
than that he had reached the concm-
sion that Mr.. Lacy was entitled to
the office and he wished it known that
he had given possession of his own
motion.
After the keys were turned over to
Mr.. Lacy he sent for his clerk, Mr..
w. e. Faison, and formally installed
him. with instructions to be OH hand
at 8 O'Clock this morning.
At half past four, in company with
Mr.. Lacy, Mr.. Hamrick went to serve
notice on Auditor Aver that he had
surrendered his office. Mr.. Aver was
out and the two called on the Cover
nor, whom Mr.. Hamrick informed that
he had voluntarily yielded to Mr..
Lacy
Mr.. Lacy will call on the Governor for
his commission this morning.
Mr.. j. G. l.. Harris. of counsel for
Mr.. Hamrick, stated last night that
Mr.. Hamrick had taken action without
consulting his attorneys. Mr.. Harris
did not conceal that counsel was i'll
pleased that the contest should have
been settled that way. He said that the
case had been carefully prepared and
counsel felt that Mr.. Hamrick should
have consulted them before giving pos
session and either have released them as
counsel or have acted on their advice.
will any further action be tallen!
was asked.
I'VE are still at liberty TO bring the
action if we so desire. but | do not
know what will be done about it" Mr..
Harris replied.
That anything will be done about it
further is very remote possibility.

Too Fat to Live.

An Indian woman named Mrs. Abra-
ham Lyman, from the Umatilla reser-
walton, is in Walla Walla seeking relief
from obesity. For theee years she has
been getting fatter and fatter until che
is now in danger of being choked to
death by it. She is % years of age and
weighs 275 pounds, which for her height
is an enormous weight. She can walk
only with great difficulty and her face
is drawn terribly out of shape by the
great cheeks that bulge out and hang
down on either side, while her arms are
bulged out on either side as though
propped up. The flesh hangs down her
sides in immense rolls and she is a
burden to herself. The main trouble is
in breathing, she having great difficulty
to use her lungs, which must be wedged
tightly with the superhuous fat. The
physicians will first try anti-fat reme-
dies, but if a satisfactory result is not
obtained shortly an operation will be
performed and seventy to eighty pounds
of the fatty matter removed. The opera
tion, however, may prove fatal.
