Sheriff Hooker Not Drunk.

To the Editor: Your paper of
August 5th contained a report of ru-
mors that Sheriff w. E. Hooker was
intoxicated, and that he was one OF
the leaders of the mob who were
wildly threatening to kill the mem
bers of the canvassing board and de-
stroy the records of the election of
August End. 1t is my privilege to say
that so far as / could see and Judge,
while acting as clerk of the board, he
was not drunk. Other men of in
tegrity have said that he was not
drunk. After having been ordered by
Chairman Geo. r. Brinson to come to
the assistance of the board and main
tain order while the board was in
session, he came in promptly and
seemed calm and sober. | heard him
ask the people to keep quiet. He af-
forwards left the room, but he tells
me that he left deputies in charge.
He further states that he had not
had drink in some days before. The
report in the papers grew out of the
wild confusion round about the court
house. l would not have the public
receive false impression of Sheriff
Hooker, or any man. May God rule
in the hearts of the people of Pamlico
county.
Yours truly,
GEO. T. FARNELL.

Criminal Court in Catawba.
Especial to News and Observer.)

Especial to News and Observer
Newton, N. c., August s.
Court opened here Monday with
Judge Frederick Moore presiding
His charge to the grand jury was a
most excellent one. There are one
hundred cases on the criminal docket,
the largest docket that this county
has had for many years. The cases
includn two murder cases, one case
for burglary, several cases for larceny
and the cases for threatening and in
timidating the registrar reported in
the News and Observer previously.
Judge Moore, although he is a
young man, is conducting the court in
most excellent and satisfactory
manner. No very important cases
have yet been tried. One of the
murder cases has been set for Thurs
day but may not be tried at this term
of the court as only one of the de-
PENDANTS in the case has been taken.
I At yesterdays session of the court,
one prisoner was sent to the State S
|, prison for one year and two others
| to the chain gang of Iredell county.
| The prisoner. Dorse Hunt, charged
| with the murder of Ellis Cline near
| Hickory on last year, was brought
into court and arraigned. The day
of the trial was set for Monday and a
Especial venire was ordered summoned.

Why the Southern Railway Went to
Federal Court.

Editor News and Observer: In the
News and Observer of this, Wednes-
day, morning there appears an article
in regard to the case of Durham and
Northern Railroad Company against
Southern Railway Company and 9TH
ers, in which there appears the head
line in quotation marks: I'm the SUI
periof court of Durham county or any
other State court" And in the body of
the article, protesting to give the sub
stance of the petition, it said: "The
prejudice against the defendant is so
keenait cannot get justice in that o.
any other State court
The item processes to give the SUD
stance of the petition, and was writ
ten with full access to the papers.
An article, in which the qualifying
words of sentence do not APP
pear, is inaccurate and misleading
The language of the petition is: ''Pe-
titioner will not be able to obtain us
tice in the said Superior court of the
county of Durham in the State of
North Carolina, or in any other State
court TO WHICH YOUR PETITION
ER MAY UNDER THE LAWS OF
THIS STATE HAVE THE RIGHT ON
ACCOUNT OF SUCH LOCAL INFLU-
ENCE TO REMOVE THE SAME"
The words in caps are omitted.
1t has been repeatedly held that
the right to apply for a removal in
the discretion of the judge, is not
the right to remove, and that, there
fore, there is no other county in the
State to which the defendant has UNI
der the laws of North Carolina THE
RIGHT TO REMOVE THE SAME"
AS to the existence of local influ-
ence in favor of the Durham and Nor
thern Railway Company in this liti-
CATION and the other controversies
connected with it. there would seem
to be little, if any, doubt. When a
controversy concerning this same
right of way, involving the right of
the city of Durham to the possession
of the same as a street, was before
the State courts in 1890, the very ma
tural feeling of the people of Durham
in favor of their own city and of COM
peting railroad lin which they owned
a large quantity of dividend-paying
stock and to which they had given
the use of the street as it's right of
way) was so evident, that the State
court without hesitation removed the
trial of the cause to another county.
The erroneous impression created
by your article of this morning / hope
will be removed by prompt inser-
ton of this communication.
Very respectfully,
F. II. BUSBEE,
Raleigh, N. c.. Aug. 8, 1900.

Williamson, n. c., August S.-The
tobacco market at Robersonville was
yesterday formally opened. Large and
well-lighted warehouses, and spacious
storage houses have been built ami
yesterday all the' available space on

Chairman Simmons For Senator

To the Editor: Now that the great
battle of ballots has ended and a
most glorious victory is won, it is but
fitting to say a word in behalf of our
great chief who has led us to victory
in three great political battles. The
fight of two years ago was hard, but
we'll fought. The victory was a grand
one, but it caused our enemies to dou-
BILE their efforts to down us in the re-
cent election. However, our chief,
with eyes ever open for the good of
our beloved State and good gcwrn-
ment therein, saw every move from
their headquarters outward and he
did not fail to sound the note and
marshall his great and manly host
to the front in the very place where
the enemy's strong attack was to be
made and at every point his forces
routed the enemy who were COM
PEELED to retire, and often with loss.
Now the suffrage amendment is rat
flied and the Legislature is ours and
in January our Representatives and
Senators will be called upon to cast
our ballots for a fit man to represent
North Carolina in the Senate of the
United States.
In North Carolina we have large
quantity of splendid Senatorial timber
" and from this large amount of fitting
materia4~one must be chosen. Who
shall he be2 Not saying one word
against any man who has been or
who may be spoken for l ask, can
there be one found who is better pre-
pared or who is more deserving of
this high honor than is Hon. +. M.
Simmons, our great political leader?
Let's come out as one man. as did
the Democratic State convention in
the nomination of and the people on
the second Gay of August in the
election OF Charles B. Aycock, and
= give Hon. F. NJ Simmons an election
to the United States Senate bv ac-
clamation. Such an act will be but
a fitting acknowledgement of his very
valuable service to the Democratic
party and to the State in general.

cArAwBA IN DEMOCRATIC COLUMN.
Work of the Press of the State in the Recent
Great Victory.
Especial to News and Observer.)

Especial to News and Observer
Newton, n. c., August 6.-The News
and Observer in its Sunday edition
placed Catawba county among the list
of counties that gave majorities
against the amendment and gave the
majority as 200.
Old Catawba is no fusion county,
but gave majority of 30 for the
amendment. The majority would have
been larger but the Democrats put
their work in for the Legislature.
The battle is over and victory rests
on our banner. The glory of the vic
tory rests in u large measure with
the speakers who so nobly defended
our cause from the mountains to the
seashore. But the press likewise eX-
erted a mighty influence over the
minds of the people. And in the roll
of honor, the News and ObselRr
stands at the head for its untiring eff
forts to present to the people full re-
ports of everything concerning the
issues of the day and the powerful
cartoons of Jennett went far towards
bringing about the defeat of the Flu
sion gang and the passing of Butler
in politics.

MIRACULOUS ESCAPE
A Freight Train Wrecked by
Spreading Rails.
- 80
The Singing Glass Of The Oxford Orphanage
Was in The caboose But All Escaped
Unhurt.
Especial to News and Observer.)

Especial to News and Observer
Winston-Salem, N. c., August s.
"A freight train which left here at
1O:3O today for Charlotte, was wrecked
near Clemmonsville. The accident was
caused by spreading rails. The train
ran a quarter of mile with one car
off the track. When it stopped nine
cars had left the rails, and gone to-
gether in a mass.
The singing class from the Oxford
Orphanage, sixteen in number, includ-
ing the manager, were in the caboose,
but fortunately it did not leave the
track. Their escape is considered by
the railroad people to be miraculous.
The orphans were on their way to
Mocksville to attend the annual Ma
