INJUNCTION CAN'T REACH IT.
The Officers Charged With Holding an Elec-
ton May Not be Legally Enjoined.

For some days it has been rumored
that in their desperation, the Black
and-Tan managers would endeavOr to
get some reckless Judge to issue some
proceeding in the nature OF an in
junction in order to interfere with or
prevent the election.
The election law expressly provides
that the Judges have no power to is.
sue such process. Even without any
statute on the subject the courts
have held that the function of election
officers acting under statutory provis-
ions cannot be interfered with by in
functions.
In Bynum VS.. Commissioners 1O1
n. c. Reports, 414), Chief Justice Mer-
rimon speaking for the court said
that "the officers respectively charg-
ed by the law with ordering such
elections, holding and ascertaining
and declaring the results of them, as
to their duties have authority in the
exercise of which they shall not be
interfere with or restrained while
they proceed in the course Of their
action according to the forms and
requirements of the law applicable.
They must be allowed to discharge
their duties respectively in the eXer-
else of the duties conferred upon and
confded to them, though they may
do so enormously. The legal correct
ness of their action is not to be ques-
toned or contested at every step they
take, but only by proper action, when
the election shall have been COM
pleted-otherwise, an election might
in many cases be thwarted and de-
feated by the factious and unwarrant-
ed interference of persons unfriendly
to it. Moreover it would be imprac-
ticable to restrain officers in the eX-
ercise of authority that involved their
Judgment and discretion, which can-
not be certainly known until the
same shall be expressed and made OPP
erative.'
In High on Injunctions, (Section
1876, it is said: Indeed, a still
broader doctrine has been asserted
and it has been held that the power
of holding an election being a politi-
cal power, equity has no jurisdiction
to restrain officers intrusted by law
with the duty of holding elections
from the exercise of such power"
Section 1925 in High on Injunctions
says: 'While it is thus seen that
courts of equity exact the most i'm.
plcit obedience to the writ of injunc-
tion and treat its violation as a most
fragrant contempt of court, the doc.
trine is to be understood with the
qualification that the court has juris-
diction over the subject matter il
controversy"
1t will thus be seen that if any
Judge should attempt to interfere
with the election today that the Off
cers are to treat the proceeding OF
the judge as void without incurrine
any risk of being put in contempt. &

THREATENED TO KILL REGISTRAR.
Lee Watkins of Rolesville Threatened to Kill
the Registrar at the Place.

Justice Maroon yesterday sent Lee
Watkins to- Jail for threatening the
life of the registrar at Rolesville. Pa
pers were sworn out for the arrest of
Andrew Watkins, brother of Lee,
but he was allowed to go home upon
promising that he would behave him
self.
The name of the registrar at Roles
vile is j. II. Mitchell, and he has al
ways stood high in the community
and has been magistrate for a number
of years. He was recently appointed
registrar and has performed the du-
ties of his office fearlessly and i'm
partially.
Watkins is a rank Populist, and has
made himself offensive in his advo-
cacy of Populism. He has said that
Mitchell intended to cheat the Popu-
lists out of their votes, and on yester-
day he told Mitchell that on election
day he (Watlins) was coming to the
polls, bringing ten men armed with
a shot gun and fifty cartridges apiece,
and that he would run the d-n old
election to suit himself He was
drinking at the time, but is known to
be dangerous man, so he was ar
rested upon a peace warrant sworn
out by Mitchell. He was taken before
Squire Maroon and placed under a
500 bond to appear for trial before
Justice Maroon Friday. Being unable
to give the required bond, he was
sent to Jail.
His brother, Andrew, then said that
he himself would kill Mitchell wheth-
er his brother did or not. A warrant
was sworn out for him also, but he
heard of it before it could be served
on him, and he begged off, saying that
he was drunk and did not know what
he was doing, &c, and he was told TO
go home and behave himself.
Lee Watkins was seen by q re-
porter yesterday afternoon, and he
said that if he had said anything that
hurt Mitchelrs feelings he was sorry
for it. &.
His case will be tried Friday.

That Same Old Lie.

A telegram was received last night
from Burlington stating that the
Black-and-Ta gang in Alamance
county were circulating in that coun-
ty the exposed statement of b. f. Be
vers and G. ID. Hayes that Mr.. CASTOR
Powell, member of the House from
Wake, had stated that after the pres
ent amendment is adopted the Demo-
Gratis intend to add property qualiti-
cation, so that no man can vote I'M
less he is q property owner.
This statement was circulated some
weeks ago in Wake, but nobody here
da~es repeat it now since Mr.. Powell
has denounced it as a lie out of the
whole cloth. Mr.. Powell is one of the
best men in Wake county. His word
is as good as any mans bond, and
since he denounced the as a lie it has
not been heard of again in Wake
county. 1t has reached Alamance.
Let Democrats there brand it as q
lie.

7'2 Pounds of Cotton Picked in One Day

The worlds record for cotton picking
mas been broken, and to sixteen-year-
old boy belongs that honor. Master
Warner S. Hale, Of Good Hope, Ga.
celebrated his sixteenth birthday a few
days ago by inviting all of his young
friends to attend q cotton picking con-
test. During the day young Hale
picked 77Sa@ 7SSa@ pounds of cotton, as.onisil-
ing even himself.
At the close of the day Hale declared
that he was no more tired than usual
and was ready and willing to go to
wo1k again tho next day. lie declares
that he will exceed this record next
year by 15O pounds.
Champions on other lines have been
heard of and their acts and. deeds ap-
plauded by an admiring public, but
young Hale has started in line all by
himself and so far is away ahead of all
others.
Log rollings, cano grindings and
quilting bees, SO long in vogue in the
Southern States, will now be relegated
to the rear ranks and when farmers,
their wives, daughters and sons desire
to furnish amusements for the neigh

a cotton crop quickly, Master Hale will
be invited and the other lads in the
vicinity be given an opportunity to tly
