JUDGE OSBORNE.

The CAUCASIAN wishes to join in
the chorus ofgeneral approval which
has greeted the appointment o Hon.
Frank 1. Osborne as judge of the
Court of Private Land Claims.
President Roosevelt has chosen WISE
ly and well, and the selection of Mr..
Osborne cannot help but rebound to
the credit of his administration and
to the welfare and integrity of the
court. Thoroughly equipped in all
that goes to make up great lawyer,
honest aud unfaltering in his con-
victions, lover of justice and a
courageous advocate Of principle,
Judge Osborne carries with him
qualities that would reflect honor
upon any court Of the land. North
Carolina can well be proud Of her
distinguished son.

THE COUNTRY AWAITS THE YER
DICT.

THE COUNTRY AWAITS THE YER
DICT.
The court of inquiry in the Schlsy
case has adjourned. For seven weeks
the court has been engaged in hear
ing testimony and one week was
consumed in the arguments of the
judge advocate and counsel. The
members of the court are now &C.
cupied in going over and sitting the
mass Of evidence before rendering
their opinion, and it will, therefore,
probably be several weeks before
the world is officially Informed that
the plans of the conspirators in the
Navy Department to besmirch the
honored name Of Admiral Schley
have failed.
In an address, Mr.. Raynor re-
viewed the case for Admiral Schley
His argument was magnificent and
his perpratiOu . wonderful piece of
eloquence. He pointed out that the
case of the prosecution was made up
Of an effort 10 show that Schley
should have done everything except
what he did do, ignoring the fact
that it was his one purpose to &C.
complish the destruction of the
Spanish feet and that this purpose
was carried out thoroughly and we'll.
Accor ding to Lemly, the judge ad-
vocatc, Schley should not be judged
ny what he did do, but by what he
did not do Mr.. Raynor's statement
that the case against Schley tottered
in the very beginning with the
testimony of of Admiral Higginson
and It's whole fabric was completely
dissipated as the case wore on, is ap
parent to every one who has closely
followed the proceedings Of the trial
The country now awaits the yer.
dict Of the court. It looks to the
three gentlemen who have 20 patti
ertly and conscientiously listened
to the story Of bitter persecution
and vile calumny which has been
unfOlded before them, to do justice
to the man who has been the victim
of as foul and indecent q conspiracy
as ever darkened the annals OF
American history.

DOWNFALL AND ITS
oIGNITTCANCE.

The victory Of Seth Low In the
elections last week over Edward NJ.
Shepard, the Tammany candidate
for mayor Of New York, IL triumph
for good go vernment. For seven
teen years or more Tsmmany Haul
has run riot In the greatest city on
the American continent. Its reign
has been an unbroken orgie OF mir
government, plumber and corruption.
Why 1t has been allowed by the
voters of the city to debauch Thu
government for 80 long . time Is
one Of the msrvels Of political his
tory. The continuance In power OF
the notorious Croker ring has con-
stituted an insult to the intelligence
and decency Of the good citizenship
Of New York City and cast q very
great reflection upon the worth Of
universal suffrage. Both, b )wever.
have been vindIcated by the down.
fall of the tyrant and the elevation
10 power Of an administration that
bid, fair to be conducted On honest
business principles.
S.th Low and his fellow worker
in the vineyard have before them
great opportunity. If they succeed
in raising to q higher plane the
government Of New York City and
bettering its moral tone, they will
have placed not only the city but
the whole cauntry vastly In their
debt. If they can succeed in con-
duct ng the affairs Of the first Ameri-
can municipality In such . manner
that the better element, tho element
that .tands for the substantial good
of the city, can control, we may
look forward with more confidence
to the time when the reputation Of
American cities for municipal mis-
government will be only q horrible
memory and not an ever present
and notifying reality.
1t must be borne In mind in con.
templating the election of Low, that
the victory does not belong to any
party; it ia triumph for decency
, and self-respect. It 10, moreover, &

THE GOOD ROADS MOVEMENT.


been watching with a good deal Of
interest the progress Of the good
roads train through the Southern
States. The train Is run over the
tracks of the Southern Railway and
made Its first stop at Winston-Salem.
At that place half mile Of speci-
men road WAS constructed and meet
ings were held for two or three days
under the auspices Of the Good
Roads Association. These meetings
were largely attended by representa-
tive men Of the State, interesting
and valuable addresses were deliver
ed, aud much enthusiasm was
aroused.
At Asheville, the next place
visited, q similar program was gone
through with; and 30 1t will be at
the various stopping pIints of the
good roads train. 1t now seems
probable that Raleigh will be among
the cities chosen for an exhibition.
There Is hardly question more
intimately connected with the up
building Of the South than the ques-
tion of good roads. The statement
Is made upon excellent authority
that bad roads cause to the farmers
OF the country an annual loss of
$500, 100000. 1t IL difficult to
realize the i'm mensity of this sum
Of money, and yet 1t gives only a
fair insight into the loss suffered
Ga year because of the miserable
condition of country roads. In West
ern North Carolina alone a loss of
thousands of dollars year Is brought
about because the farmers of that
section are unable to transport to the
eastern markets their crop of apples,
and all because of bad roads. This
Is only one item. Other products
would add many more thousand
dollars to the sum total of Western
North Cardinals loss. If$3OO, 0OO,.
600 year for five years were spent
throughout the country in improv-
ing the roads, the good obtained in
the succeeding five years and the
saving effected would pay for cost
of the improvement.
The Atlanta Constitution forcibly
shows the necessity for good roads
In the South in the following words
ave have an immense country
pierced by but few railroads. Ever
after the railroad mileage shall have
been quadrupled, there will still be
stretches Of country from so to loo
miles without roads.
Important, then, as railroads are
even they will be valueless unless
supplemented by good roads leading
to every mans door. These roads
will not only connect the farm
house with the station, and thence
with the market city, but will bring
the advantages of city into country
Even now, while the rural district,
north and west are being covered
with the rural mail delivery service
1t Is baked in the south because the
necessary circuit of twenty-five
miles cannot be made within day
Ut Is Q lamentable condition, no,
only cutting us out of the advant
ages Of travel, but condemning sur
plus small crops to rot in the field
If planted, and since planting would
be pro6tless, leading the people tc
fdleness."
1t IL time that the people of tn
South were earnestly considerin,
this matter Of good roads, and no
only considering it, but taking &C
ton Ia the matter. If the goot
roads train shall succeed In c0ntribut
ing to this result it will have don
n magnificent work.
