Judiciary building to the basement of

removed from their present location
nto the offices vacated by the Public
Works and the Water Works depart
ments.
Atkinson is to occupy the large room in
-hC iCud VI Tic OOdGu OI
office, which was formerly used for
meetings. Inspector Townsend and
Normal Instructor Gibson will have the
back room while the large room will be
cut up into offices, the rear to be used
for books and the front for the secre-
AIRY and school agent.
The legislative hall on the main floor
of the Executive building is to be used
as United States court room and will
be occupied by Judge Estee. The rooms

that lynch law is most likely to prevail.
He called attention to the fact that
with the passage of time since the aboli-
ton of slavery the crime seems to grow
in Importance. Mr.. King also noted the
apparently inherent prejudice existing
between the lower class of white people
and the negro who is being educated and
by imitation was menacing the social
status of this class of white people. He
said that this prejudice is resented by
the negro and produces strong racial ami
mostly
Mr.. King held that race luminosity was
created by the tendency OF the negroes
to conceal the crimes of members or
their own race, which made the question
Of assault and lynching pre-eminently an
inter racial one. He said that for fair
decision on the question OF lynchlng 1T
was necessary to consider the crime and
conditions. Mr.. King gave two reasons
why extra judicial means are resorted to-,
namely:
The delay of legal punishment and the
protection OF the victim of the assault
from the ordeal of the witness chair.
Mr.. King suggested two remedies for
mob violence. He thought that when a
party begins a hunt for fugitive each
member should be sworn in as deputy
sheriff by the sheriff of the county and
memorandum of his name taken. In
case violence came to the prisoner, those
committing it could be detected.
He also suggested that in county
where a lynching occurred tax should
be levied by the State authorities of not
less $4,000 upon the citizens and the
amount appropriated to the school fund
of the State.
Mr. King closed with plea for the
domination of law.
He was followed by Hon. Clifton K.
Breckenridge, of Arkansas, who discussed
the advisability Of lynching.

THE SEABOARD AIR LINES NEW
ROUTE TO COLUMBIA, SAVAN
NAH AND THE SOUTH.

On Thursday, May 10. the Seaboard Air
Line Railway, better known as the Peo-
pies line will operate a magnificent train
service between this city and South Caro-
lina's Capital. Nos. 402 and 403 popular
ly known as the Atlanta Special will,
for the present carry through sleepers
from Washington to Tampa, Fla, via
Raleigh, Hamlet, Columbia, Savannah
and Jacksonville. The new road-bed be-
tween Hamlet and Columbia which COM
pletes the physical link between the Old
Seaboard Air Line and the Florida Cen
trail and Peninsular railroad, has been
completed and is pronounced by experts
to be one of the best in the South. 1t is
laid with eighty pound rails, and sched-
ule of fifty miles an hour can be made
over it with safety. passenger leaving
Raleigh at $40 in the afternoon reaches
Columbia at 11:55 that night. He can
leave Columbia at $40 p. m. and arrive
at Raleigh at 2:14 same night. Thus it
will be. seen that never before have our
people had the same advantages for quick
transit, which they now enjoy, and still
better things are in store in the very
near future. The next time the reader
desires to visit Columbia or the further
South try the New Route, for should you
desire to travel further, and are using
the through sleeper we will put you in
Savannah at 500 o'clock a. M, and in
Jacksonville at $40, and in Tampa $50
same afternoon. Or again the traveller
can leave Raleigh at 2:14 a. M, be in
Savannah at 1857 the same day, in jack
sonville that evening at TAO, which means
| to say that by the New Route one may
| make the journey between Raleigh ana
Jacksonville in seventeen hours, besides
the advantages of having the sleeper all
the way through.
