The Industrial Commission gave exhaustive hearings ou the trusts, and their relation ;o labor and business. and the report should bc of more vaiuc than such things usually arc. If II it should be unanimous II undoubtedly would bc. But if there is to hc two re- ports. signed respectively by the ma joriiy and minority members of the commission. then they would have the same value md carry the sa me weight of the usual partisan reports put out by congressional committee. Rep re>cutaiiye Livingston of Georgia, a member of the commission. said the other day: There is one subject the Industrial Commission proposes 10 handle without gloves. and that Is the trust question. and how u affects both capital and labor This ie d good way Co handle II. but wouldn't l; be better still if inc members of the com mission would leave their tender little hands back with wife and borrow the paws of some of the Alma ga mated workers and take hold If the trusts with a grasp that would make their very foundation ;o iremble?

TO DIsFRANCHISE IN MARYLAND.
The Maryland legislature, now
Democratic, has been called into ex-
traordinary session for the purpose
Of passing an election law to enable
the Democrats to obtain permanent
control of that State.
The law, as propos d by Ex-Sena-
ator German, who is Aghtiug for re
election to the Senate, will have the
effect of disfranchising by imposing
an educational qualification, about
$4,000 negro voters and $4,000 illlt-
crate white voters. The legislature
OF Maryland intends to do boldly and
directly what the Nprth Carolina
redshirts have done by indirection.
The latter knew that the "grandfa
Their clause will be knock d out by
the courts, leaving the remainder to

white votes to every negro voter,
and like North Carolina, is In no
danger of "nigRer domination" But
the tricksters want the Offices and
that's the secret Of the whole thing.

The speech Of Hon. F. I. Osborne
for the defense in the impeachment
trial was not only one of the most
eloquent, mastery and convincing
arguments delive.ed during the
course of the trial, but one of the
greatest that has been made in
North Carolina for many a day. II
the result Of the trial is determin-
ed by law and logic and according
to Justice and right then he will
have the satisfaction of knowing
that this speech played no small
part in saving the State from the
stain Of q conviction Of two upright
and honest Judges in most malig.

As to the next point that the
legislature had specifically instruc-
ted the Treasurer to pay White,
wish to say that the legislature had
no power to prohibit the payment,
having made the appropriation
and commanded the duties to be
performed. Indeed, the act Of the
legislature declaring that this sala
ry should not be paid is unconsti-
tutional. ALI the courts agree that
q legislature cannot require an off,
Ger to perform certain duties and
then starve him out by taking from
him ali of the salary to compensate
him for the performance of said du.
ties. CAT this point Mr.. Osborne
cited numerous authorities There
fore, this question is put behind US,
and, consequently, according to the
doctrine laid down by the prosecu.
ton, it was not only the right, blu.
the duty of these judges to order
the mandamus to issue.
