JOHN BROWNS NAME STRICKEN
FROM THE LIST.

The News and Observer is Nper-
sistcntly persevering." 1T has never
seen any good reform succeed by sug-
gestion, hint or short-lived advocacy.
In this world, where the private affairs
OF most men engross their attention, it
is only by constant iteration and reiter-
alton that enough impression is made
to cause man to act and act decisively.
If you want to do anything worth while,
you must not weary in Well doing.
There must be there a little and there
little constants persistent agitation
that will almost wake the dead.
When this paper criticized the super
intendent of the Asheville Graded
Schools for instructing teachers to tel!
the pupils that George Washington and
John Brown were in the same class Of
great men," it was received with mild
approval After continued criticism,
Prof. Tighe offered an explanation
whole column long that did not explain.
The criticism in these columns was kept
up, other papers in all parts Of the
country took up the matter, and the
people in Asheville became aroused and
entered their protest. So widespread
was the criticism, and SO just, that Prof.
Tight saw that he could hold out no
longer. He has announced that he has
stricken the name of John Brown from
the list of great men" to be studied in
the Asheville schools.

cause was up before Squire McRae of
this place, and from the facts gathered
it seems that Mr.. Galley, who lives
near Red Banks, this county, was short of
hands for his farm, so he put Croaton
boy, by the name of Locklear on one Of
his horses and told him to get him some
hands as quick as possible. The Croatan
took him at his word and went just a
little too quick for the comfort and we'll
being of the horse, for when the boy got
back Mr.. Galley found that the horse had
been run nearly to death. This so in
censed Mr.. Galley that he proceeded to
give the Croatan dose of his own medi-
cine in the following novel manner:
Another Croatan was put on a horse
and given one end of rope, the other
end being around the neck of the boy
and after a few preliminaries, about dis
lance, direction, ETC., word was given to
go, and they were off like the wind-horse
in the lead with boy a close second.
Those who saw it say that Mercury
in his palmiest days was slow coach
compared with the Croatan.
Justice McRae bound Mr.. Galley over
to the next term of Criminal court.

HANNA TO FIGHT ROOSEVELT
Zeb Vance Walser Carried the News and Re-
ceived Mental Whoop.

The Asheville correspondent of the
Charlotte Observer has this item about
the Greensboro meeting of the "Dood-

1T is said that the informa-
tion that Senator Hanna would
take stand against the Presidents pol
icy Of appointing Democrats to office,
reached Greensboro from private
source late Saturday afternoon, just after
the adjournment of the formal conference,
and that a mental whoop of approval
went up from every official patriot on
the ground. Some OF the Republicans
bad left tine hotel for the station, as
they were going to leave for home short
ly after the conference. The information
was taken to them by Zeb Vance Walser.
The appointment of Ex-Governor Jones to
district judgeship affected certain North
State Republicans in very personal way,
for reasons that have not yet been given
to the public. There was Republican
candidate for the office TO which Mr..
Jones was appointed who had the very
active support Of Judge James e. Boyd
and perhaps other Republicans or TINS

than the rest because the Republican re-
ferred to was personal friend or MS
Judge Boyd said at Greensboro that this
Republican was in every sense good
man, we'll qualified to fiji the nigh office.
Judge Boyd was therefore both disap-
pointed and surprised when another man
was named for the place. 1t is said that
the appointment OF the Republican allud-
ed to was urged on the ground. among
others, that he had been the close and
active friend OF the late President Nc
Kinley, and had from the first taken his
side as against Reed. What causes the

No one deplores the necessity of lynch
ing more than l do, but it is not going to
stop because it is so severely denounced
in the newspapers and from certain other
quarters. But there are reforms to be
considered which might operate nightly
towards it's discontinuance and make it
of very rare occurrence in our State. Let
our jury system be so changed as to put
the State in capital felonies on an equal
footing with the defendants in perempto-
ry challenges, fix the qualifications of
juror so that none but our best citizens,
men of known character and intelligence
are competent jurors, and let no one man
or two men on a jury prevent verdict
Let the law hold a stricter surveillance
over the methods and acts of attorneys,
keeping them within the limits of fair,
just and honorable conduct in their prac-
tice and dealings-some such changes as
these, as we'll as others that might be
mentioned will prove helpful and advant-
ageous.

mends some wise changes in the jury sys-

the matter says: History teaches us
that up to the time of Edward the Third
English juries consisted of eighteen and
that twelve could render a verdict. The
unanimous verdict is an innovation and
has not been justified by experience Let
me urge ministers Of the Gospel, editors
of the newspapers, the governors and all
others who condemn lynchng so freely,
to turn their batteries towards our Ian
