One of the wisest coolest headed,
most upright and genuine democrats
in the legislature in a private letter,
gives his views of the effect of the trial
of the two judges and believes 1T will
be wholesome and beneficial to North
Carolina. In this he is by no means
alone. for all about sensible, we'll bal
anced men are saying the same thing.
1t is money we'll spent. Gentlemen
of the judiciary will be more C
spect. more careful as to what they say
and do in the future. There is no an
tiquated. exhausted theory in North
Carolina that the judge can do no
wrong. He may be very ignorant, very
unfair, very biased. very unfaithful.
But let us give a few sentences from
our j%udicious and observant friend:
81 feel that the trial will be of great
benefit to the state. although, it did
not result as l thought it ought to. L
am inclined to think that it will save
the amendment, as there were lnhuen-
tial democrats who defended the judg-
es and all of these will understand that
their own salvation n safety will
depend upon inducing the judges not
to trouble the amendment. l hope these
things may be strong enough to deter
them. 1 also think h a one of the di-
rect results of the trial will probably
be the discontinuance of the prosecu-
tons against the democratic registrars.
In addition 20 this it will the
people of the state to examine more
closely the conduct of the public Of
ficials, and will a a tendency 10
make the officials themselves more
careful. If 1 am right in these views
the trial will be worth a hundred fold
more than it has cost h people OF
the state"

GETS 4 REBUFF
FROM ARGENTINA
Uncle Sans Friendly
Offer to Mediate Is
Rejected.
Buenos Ayres Government
Apparently Wants War
With Chile.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3O.-Advices re-
ceived here indicate that Chile has SHOWN
a more temperate disposition than the
Argentine Republic in dealing with ques-
lions which may ultimately involve the
two countries in war. The most surprls-
ing feature of the negotiations, according
TO these advices, is the refusal OF Argen-
tina to accept the friendly offices OF the
United States to bring about an amlcaole
adjustment and the promptness OF ChlIe
in welcoming American tntercessiOn.
Since the Baltimore affair IN 1oSI'
which nearly involved Chile and this
country in hostilities, Chileans have sup
posedly maintained bitter feeling to-
ward their North American neighbOrS,
tuE that disposition appears to nave
changed. Argentina, on the other hanu'
was regarded as especially friendly To-
ward the United States. Her rejection
of the offer of this Government IS sur
prising not only on that account but also
because the manner of Argentina re-
fusal indicated that she does not enter
tain any feeling of warmth for the
Washington administration.
From reliable information received here,
Argentina appears to have been only
half-hearted in her agreement TO accept
The arbitration Of King Edward, and the
conviction is growing among officials
that she is not willing to have a peace
able adjustment with Chile.
In a telegram to the State Department,
Buchanan, one of the American delegates
to the Pan-AmeTtcan Congress in the
City of Mexico, says an agreement for
arbitration along the lines of The Hague
treaty appears TO be favored by ma
jority of the Latin delegates and the
congress probably will use that treaty as
a model in reaching conclusions. Some
of the countries desire to make more

SWOLLEN RIVERS
ARE NOW FALLING
Danger Of Serious Floods
in Pennsylvania Is
About Over.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 30.-From all
parts of Eastern Pennsylvania tonight
reports show that the rivers and creeks
which became greatly swollen as a result
of Saturday night and Sundays continu-
Gus rain are steadily falling. There is one
exception, however, the lower part of the
Susquehanna River being reported to be
still rising and close to the danger mark.
Although considerable damage was done
the losses will not be great, most Of the
flood areas being low lands against the
Upper Schuylkill, Lehigh and SusQue-
hanna rivers. In the anthracite coal dis
tricts a few of the mines were flooded
causing suspension of work for the day.
Along the lower Susquehanna there is ap-
prehension that damage will result from
ice gorges, The water is said to be ris-
ing six inches an hour in that vicinity.
SchuylkilI River in this city rose eighteen
feet above the normal, which rise has been
passed only once in thiTty-two years.
Manayunk, one of the mill districts, suf-
along the river was forced to suspend
operations, throwing out of work for the
through Paramount Park and several sec
tons of the railroad tracks on both sides
of the river between the park and the
mouth OF the Schuylkill were under water
for short time during the day. 1t was
feared that the Baltimore and Ohio sta
ton on the east side of the river at Chest

- OLUMBUS, O., Dec. 3O.-The Ohio
n Legislature, which will elect the
II successor of Senator Foraker,
~ will convene here next Monday
The party caucuses to nominate
candidates for presiding officers and other
positions in both branches of the General
Assembly will be held on Saturday night.
As the Republicans have a large majority
in both houses and as there is no opposi-
ton to the reelection of Senator Foraker
the Senatorial question for this session is
settled, but there is a very bitter contest
in progress bearing upon the reelection
of Senator Hanna two years hence, as It
is believed that a majority of the Repub-
lican members will be reelected to the
next Assembly.
Senator Foraker is at his home at Gin
cinnati and Senator Hanna remains in
Washington. Neither is expected here
this week, but are in constant commune
cation with the leaders of their respec-
tive forces. John r. Malloy, secretary of
the State committee and coal inspector
under NASH is manager of the Hanna
FORCES, ana eX-State Chairman Charles K.
schwartz, who was private secretary to
Foraker as Governor and who headed the
fusion in the Legislature against Hanna
four years ago, is manager of the anti
Hanna forces. 1t is claimed by the Hanna
men that the present contest is ''the
same old factional fight of 1898 over
again. The Foraker men claim that
they are simply exercising their right to
support their, friends.
Both factions have their respective tick
cts for the caucus nominations and they
are called the Hanna and Foraker tickets
as openly as the Democratic and Republi-
can tickets are designated in campaigns.
Four years ago the contest did not er0
with the party caucuses, but was car
ried into the Legislature. 1t is conceded
by both sides that the results of the eau
cuses next Saturday night will be final.
