A BRAVE PIOCHER.

The atmosphere was made very
sulphuric in and about Uvada on
Thursday last by the Dago jargon
and deputized authority(?l of Albert
Peccinnino, Peter Bartelloni and
the official staff of the Sheriffs Office
which is located somewhere in the
State OF Nevada, which met appar-
emily for blood.
The occasion for this was: 1t ap-
pears Albert PecciDnino, a boy about
10 years of age who had been work
ing in a mine in DeLamar had de-
cided TO leave he wilds of Nevada
taking with him an II o U $65" OF
Peter Bartelloni, and seek "Haven
OF Rest" where Miners consumption
and Delamar dust was unknown.
To this however Peter objected. but
not before the industrious Albert
had struck out for the Utah line and
reached here, with Peter Bart, Eli
Edwards and Al hot on his trail,
striking our fair and growing City
likea thunderbolt from fair sky.
They overlook the fugitive from
Nevada justice here and all parties
interested except your correspon-
dent, drew shooting irons and it
looked for short time as ''tho' thar
would be blud shed"
Your correspondent crawled under
the table, for he had just read about
a man shutting off who tried to stop
bullets. At this time Ed w. CLARK
and Geo. Harris, both peacable and
lawabiding citizens of this great
commonwealth, arrived on the scene
armed with all kinds of guns; even
the Capt. De Lamar, "Kill robber
at 3 mile" gun was trained on the
Beanery Beaten who held in his right
hand small pop gunabout 8 inches
long and said Don't come any
nearer" stood all of them off. After
some talk by all concerned it was
decided that all parties put up their
guns aud wait the arrival of an officer
of Iron Co. Utah, acquiesced in by
deputy Edwards, who fears nothing
unless it is an Italian with a pop
gun.
All hands covered their "weepins"
and adjourned to the Hotel Denton
where they did justice to square
meal. 1t was after supper that Ed
W. Clark, formerly of Delamar,
made the gallant play OF the evening
and for his indomitable(2) pluck and
courage(P) the Nevada officers should
be thankful; for MIR Clark thought
up the plan and put it into execu-
ton assisted by Eli Edwards, viz:
Clark grabbed one of Alberts wrists,
when off his guard, and Edwards
the other, tied them up with rope
and loaded him in the vehicle fol-
Delamar. The prisoner offered n:
resistance. Eli Edwards the "Sleutt
OF the Panacas" and Peter Bartelloni
"who wishes he was an office" &C
companied Young Peccinnino wh'
was we'll tied, so it was not neces
sary for Clark or Harris to go TO
. protection to any one.
The movements of the posse wer
directed by Major A. Keefe, who oc
cupied prominent position on to,

orally another side. 1t may be
hard for a partisan to recognize it, but
it is there, and the time may come
when we shall be compelled TO admit
it was the right side and oura the
wrong. Gladstone, though a mighty
contender for the faith that was in
him, had shifted clear around to the
opposite view from that of his carly
training by the time he reached middle
age. II he had held blindly to his first
position he would have failed to per
form the great mission to the masses
of the people of Great Britain that
glorifed his career. To have a mind
open to the truth, ready to receive it
from any source, and a generous and
kindly feeling for the man who holds
to the other side, whether in matters
of religion, politics or neighborhood
questions, is a thing to be craved and
cultivated. Let US never forget that
there is another side and that it is
likely as broad and big as the one we

OUR EDUCATIONAL INsTITU-

It gives The Progressive Farmer
much pleasure to learn that most Of
the educational institutions of our State

condition of the schools Of a State
shows whether the people Of that State
are progressing or going backward,
and the people of North Carolina are
to be congratulated upon the evidences
of their progressive spirit.
Tue Agricultural and Mechanical
College takes the lead this year, with
q freshman class said to be the largest
aDy North Carolina institution has
ever had. DR.. Winston announces that
all the dormitories gre full, and all the
students admitted are we'll prepared
for college work. Twenty five sppli-
cants failed to pass the entrance ex
animation and were denied admission
to the college, as the preparatory de
partmenG has been abolished.
The iftiekh annual session of Oxford
Seminary opened with an attendance
of boarding students 90 per cent. larger
than that of any previous opening.
Wake Forest College also opens I'm

CONVICTED.

On Saturday evening at Rsnnes,
France, the court-martial of seven
Judges by a vote Of five to two pro
nounced Alfred Dreyfus guilty of be.
traying French military secrets to q
foreign government.
This verdict, almost entirely unsup
ported by evidence, is regarded as q
most BRUTAL act Of wrong and injus
tice, and for it France stands disgraced
in the eyes Of the whole civilized
world. The chief witness against Drey-
fus in his fest trial now fills a suicides
grave, a confessed forger and perjurer
the chief documents against him have
been proved to be forgeries. But, with
out evidence, he has again been con
victed and sentenced to ten years i'm
prisonment.
What the result Of this unjust YER
dict will be 20 one can tell. Appeal hes
been taken to the Court of Cessation,
but without hope. Again as Dreyfus
has already suffered five years impris-
onment in solitary confinement, which
in French law equals ten years ordi
nary detention, he may be released in
a fortnight. Or President LouIoet may
pardon the unfortunate Jew.
AS we go to press all Farce is in q
tumult, and if out of the tumult comes
riot and bloodshed we shall not be sur
prised.

Since we are reading 80 much Of
what white people think of negro col

any practicable plan embodying the

JUDGE BERMAN RETURNS RAIL.
ROAD PASSES.

George W. Beemap, Judge Of the
Forty fourth Judicial Circuit Court
district, of Starke and Pulaski coun,
ties, Indiana, has returned all his
passes to the railroad companies, &C,
companying each with a letter which
explains the motives which prompted
his action. A sample letter follows:
KNOX, Ind, Aug. 10, 1899.-The
Hon. E. @. Field, Attorney, Chicago,
Indianapolis & Louisville Railway
Company, Chicago, Ill.-Dear Sir
Permit me to return to you railroad
pass over the Monon route, No. 1862
Our personal and business relations
have been cordial and I hope will so
remain, and in the return of this rail.
road pass 1 am prompted by what I
deem to be the duty of a judge.
PASSES over the railroads given to
members of legislatures and judgesare
granted for the same purpose, and
that purpose is to influence those who
accept them. I deem this wrong for a
judge to accept a free pass from a rail.
road company which may be a party
to legislation in the court Of the judge
who accepts the free pass. If a farmer
would enclose 800 to a judge andyi it,
was accepted and afterwards a suit
was instituted by the farmer against
a railroad company in the court of the
judge who had accepted his hospitality
and knowledge we're brought to the
defendant railroad company of the
farmers hospitality and it's accept
ance, the railroad company would
make haste to seek q change of venue
from the court on account of the bias
Of the judge.
But upon the other hand, a railroad
company places a railroad pass worth
to him 500 per annum in a judges
hands as a mere matter of courtesy
aud the judge tries to educate himEslt
to believe that he is not influenced by
accepting the railroad pass. I have
failed to 40 conclude, and bslieve that
it is as unwise for a Judge to accept a
railroad pass az it would be to accept
800 from a farmer who expected to be
party to litigation in the judges
court who accepts the money.
'Tne trend Of events indicate that
during the next five years many of the
important cases that will come up for
trial before the courts in this judicial
district will be determined from q
standpoint of public policy, and 1 do
not think a judge would be true to his
duty to determine questions between
railroad corporations and the people
while under the smallest obligations to
corporations.
These are among the reasons that
have led me to return this day all the
railroad passes 1 held from RAILROAD
companies. Truly yours,
"GKo W. BEEMAN."
Judge Beeman sets an example
worthy Of emulation example
which should be folio we'd by all honest
judges, who desire to keep the judici
airy above the taiDt OF suspicion. Let
US have mere judges with Judge Be

the difference between the striker who

of cheap production by getting close
to the raw material. They are begin
ming to transfer their interests to the
South, where the raw material grows
and where they can operate at consid-
erably less expense. Within the last
year or 60 many OF the great old mills
of the Salem, Lawrence, Lynn and

it is expected nearly half Of the re-
manning factories will be removed to

The New York Financier of August
21st sage:
'Tne trust companies in the city of
New York last year paid on an aver
age, dividends Is per cent, and 10
creased theis surplus 43 s per cent"
This shows that on an average each
S1GO share of stock in these New York
trust companies cleared a net prof,
after paying all expenses and taxes, Of
$58 80 last year.
This is q nice business for these
sharks that are organized and are

they may call themselves politically.
are united on one point, that is they
never vote for a man who is not pledged
to take care Of their interest. And
they have barrels of money to dis

the people into voting for their friends
