ELECTRIC ROADS.

"A.;Iseheme IS. on foot to connect the
towns of Burlington, Haw River and Ora
ham by an electric car line, and the peo-
pie appear to be enthusiastic over it,
says the Durham Morning Herald
A company has already been chartered
to build an electric road from Durham to
Raleigh and from Durham to Chapel Hill.
In the North, electric lines connect towns
widely separated, and the indications are
that North.Carolina is to be blessed with
such additional transportation facilities,
1t would be a fine idea for the people
all along the line if there could be con-
junction. of interests whereby the road
connecting the Alamanee towns could be
built to Greensboro and to Durham, thus
giving an electric line from Raleigh to
Greensboro. Why not this important con-
Meeting link through the heart OF central
North Carolina? From this line spurs
could be built that would be good feeders
and that would do much to develop the
section through which the road would
run

AN OLD CUSTOM REVIVED.

Before the days Of many newspapers
and railroad communication, it was a Gus
tom in North Carolina for the members
of the Legislature, upon their return to
their. homes, to give an account of their
stewardship to their constituents. 1t
was a good custom and it is a pity that it
has generally fallen into disuse We are
glad to read in the Oxford Public Ledger
this week this item:
Representatives A. W. Graham and
W. HIP. Jenkins will speak to the people
OF Granville in the court house Tuesday
in court week and give an account of their
stewardship. They. of course will be
gladly heard by the people, as they have
proved splendid representatives of old
Granville
The revival of this good custom will
give to the Granville people a graphic
review of the most important measures
considered and enacted by the General
Assembly. No county in the State was
better represented in the Legislature
than Granville. Judge Graham added to
his reputation as one of the first men in
the State and Mr. jenkins made a repu
tation. Their review of their legislative
labors will be interesting and instructive.

SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.
BE soMErHtNG,
Wilmington Messenger.

Wilmington Messenger.
There is much talk of political indie
pendence. That means with some a
splitting up of the Democratic party. A
man can be so Independent as Repub-
lican to be Populist, or so independent
as Democrat to be a Republican. There
are but two parties of consequence, or
that mean much, in this country. You
must be one or the other. or indeed be SO
independent as to belong to no party. II
you are an independent do not pretend
to be either Republican or a Democrat,
but be a 'mugwump," and neither run
with the hare nor hold with the hounds.
If you break up the Democratic party
you destroy the only party of the people,
and leave the country helplessly bound by
the Republican party that is is not OF the
people or for the people, but Of the pluto
cracy and for the reign monopoly, high
crushing taxes and practical slavery.
Choose ye. If Republicanism be right tie
to it and swing corners with it, and show
your colors. Do not call yourself by an
other name. If Democracy be the thing
government by the people-then tie 20 1t
and die by it. Be something-either fish,
flesh, fowl or good red herring.

The Press on the Verdict.
GREAT WRONG DONE THE STATE.

GREAT WRONG DONE THE STATE.
Louisburg Times.
But what of the verdict? In our num-
bic opinion a great wrong has been done
the State of North Carolina. Sympathy
for the living, the desire not to put a
stigma on the dead, and other and varl-
Gus influences, commendable in their
way, but not to be thought of in crisis
so grave as this, have thrust justice
aside, and left still foisted upon the
State a judiciary, which if not corrupt,
is at least both weak and intensely par
tisan. Not even the most ardent sup
porters CT the accused judges approved
their action in the cases cited. Their
plea for them was mistake of opinion
mo wrong intent" Indeed, the plight OF
our State is a fearful one.
The result must be borne patiently
until the people shall have an opportunity
to express their opinion, and with no lg-
norant negro vote to offset the ballot
of the intelligent white man, provided
the pardoned court fails to declare the
amendment unconstitutional they Will
speak in thunder tones for the removal
of the judges who have disgraced their
office.

MORE RAILROADS.

Regarding the increase in the price Oh
Seaboard Air Line securities, Vice-Presl-
dent Williams says: II THINK the IN
crease in earnings of the road is respon-
sibIe for that" The increase in the earn
ings Of the Seaboard, Southern and the
Atlantic Coast Line and the smaller roads
in the State has been most gratlfy-
ing and give ground to hope that the
prosperity in railroad circles will insure
the building OF most of the lines OF rail-
road chartered by the last Legislature
There are too many sections of the State
not enioying railroad facilities and the
increased earnings of the present roads
will no doubt prove an incentive to the
incorporators to build the new roads for
which they have obtained charters. We
cannot have too many railroads. The
State should be honey-combed with ran
roads. and the many new charters granted
gives hope that this year will witness
a revival in railroad building.

1t is the one spring remedy sought af-

Men and women who have never taken
