From Federal Prosecution.

THE STATE TO DEFEND THEM.
Especial Dispatch to The rimes.)

RALEIGH, n C., Feb. 12.-lne House
to-day passed bill granting amnesty to
election officers charged with. or SuAity
of violating the election law. It PROVIDES
that no indictments begun under the elec
ton law in the Code and of 1870. unless
begun thirty days after offense, shall be
prosecuted to CONVICTION. The occasion
for this act by the Gsnleral Assembly Is
that since the August and November eaec-
tons and especially within the past month
or two a large number OF REGISTRARS
and poll holders, mostly, Democrats,
tlaVe been arrested by Republican ON
Gals by order OF District Attorney HoltCn
Republican, on the charge of violating
the election laws.
AMNESTY BILL.
These wholesale arrests are believed to
be intended to prejudice the National Gov
eminent against the legality of the re-
suits of the elections in question. The
bill granting amnesty will stop all these
prosecutions for violation OF State cleo
ton laws.
The House has also passed a bill which
will be a great relief to those election
officers VITO are being prosecuted for VIC
lation of election laws in elections fer
national offices 1t provides that whenever
any person IS prosecuted in any Federal
Court of this State for an act committed
by him in the performance Of any duty
!ilpoSeu by uilG idNS Oh 'tlle STATE, IT Sliati
be the duty of the Encouragement to
enter appearance in the name of the State
and defend him in such prosecutions.
PAY THE COSTS.
The Governor is required to employ
competent counsel to assist the attorney
general: to pay the costs and expe5es Of
such officers and persons SO indicted and is
sue warrants on the State Treasurer for
such costs and expenses. a bill was in
troduced in the House to-day and Will
in all probability, receive a big majority
in 10th branches of tie Assembly, proviC
ing for local compulsory education. Coun-
ties. townships, or cities can hold cleo
tons on compulsory education and estab-
hsh such a system if the majority so
vote.

ing September 90, 1885, to over 900, GOO
p;eces an the same period in 1899, whereas
English sl,eetings increased only from 1dl,-

was made for American drills and jeans.
The Same writer from whom we have
quoted above directs attention also to the
large increase in our trade with the Philip
pines. Porto Rico, Hawaii and Cuba Al
though we have barely assumed control of
these islands, says he. the total exports
from the United States thereto amounted
in the fiscal year 1900 to considerably more
than 81, 100000 as compared with 81, 000,0 coo
in 1888, gain of s3o,0oo.eGo in two years"
There is no Doubt that as our influence
over these islands grows our trnde with
them Will continue to increase by large
proportions.
All these facts are to be taken into con-
sideration in forecasting the next season
of financial panic or dullness in trade.
There will be stringency in the money
market every now and then, and we shall
have our trade setbaclls in the future as
we have had them in the past. But so
long as we continue to have these outlets
for our surplus products and so long as

maintain the public credit we may expect

Sir,--I am in no way interested in the
subject-matter. but | have read over the
following explanation in your issue Of
this date and am curious to learn where
in it explains. | perceive no substantial
difference between the original and the
amendment Does the explanation need
explanation, or is it merely my percep-
tive faculties which are becoming dull?
You say:

tence occurred in the body of an editorial
article:
There were at that time some few men
in the Senate whose patriotism and whose
judgment none could doubt, and to these
The folly of such a course of proceedings

What the writer had in his mind to say
was that there were some few men in
the Senate whose patriotism and whose
judgment none could doubt" to whom
the folly of such a course was apparent,
&c.
What does it mean?
HYPERCRITIC.
We fear that the ''perceptive faculties

made of the last stalks of grain cut,
tied with bright ribbon and carried
home by the harvest queen, to be aft

toasted on boiled mutton and potatoes
