DIR. CURRY AT THE BULL FIGHT

We are more and more persuaded that
not 20 have been asked to go to Spain
to see the young slip of fellow crowned
king. We opposed it on principle After
reading the programme we protest
against it on moral grounds. One of the
spectacular plays of the coronation is the
royal bull fight, and all the royal family
and ambassadors must grace the bloody
and disgraceful show.
At this royal bull fight three bulls were
killed by scions of the royal family with
lances from horse back and six others
were dispatched with swords. The AS
sociated Press thus concludes the account
of the bull fight:
1T was an effort for the queen mother
to attend the bull fight, but she did SO
for the sake of her son. The spectacle
was distaSteful to her and her unpopular
ity with The masses of Spain is mainly
due to her refusal to patronize the ma
tional pastime. The queen mothers re-
pugnance was evident today.
Ming ALFONSO, Oh llle Contrary, lOllOW-
cd the bull fighting closely and with ap-
parent interest.
''Dr. j. l.. M. Curry, the representative
of the United States, and Mrs. Curry
remained until the conclusion of the
fighting, as is required by etiquette, but
Mrs. Curry and her niece averted their
faces or covered their eyes with fans or
bandkerchiefs, as did the queen mother
at the spectacle of gored horses careen-
ing around the ring"
Think of the royal etiq';ette that re-
qured man of DR.. Curry's humanity
and benevolent spirit to be compelled to
remain, and think of what must have been
his disgust when he saw the young king
follow the bull-fghting closely and with
apparent interest"
This country has no business sending
cnvoys to any such Dark Ages perform

ARBITRATION THE REMEDY

At the meeting of the State Federation
OF Labor in Charlotte, one resolution was
adopted that will meet with the approval
by all fair minded men. 1t reads:
eve condemn all such acts as the
indiscrimnate use of injunctions on
the part of the judiciary and we
pledge ourselves to use our influence
to settle all strikes, lockouts, ETC.,
by arbitration
The spectacle of a whole country being
troubled and embarrassed by strikes or
lockouts is one that argues against the
ability of legislators to meet one of the
most important problems of this indus
trial age It is not easy to provide a
remedy. To do SO perfectly will tax the
wisdom of our best statesmen, but the
Federation of Labor is right in advo-
eating arbitration as the best remedy
known today 1t does we'll also to pledge
its efforts to settle all "strike. lockouts,
etc, by arbitration" If the employing
organizations will do likewise and both
will work earnestly for arbitration
strikes and lockouts will be unknown
hereafter.

Among the Railroads.

Here is an absorhingly interesting
story from Baltimore published IN yes
terday's Commercial Advertiser:
I'm discussing the advent at Birming-
ham, Ala, of the Seaboard Air Line an
influential capitalist who knows what
the company's plans are, said there
would be close working alliance with
TIE st. Louis and San Francisco, one OF
the few remaining Independent systems
of the country. 1t has a large mileage
through the Middle West of Texas.
sThere is reason 10 believe the two
roads understand the situation. and the
alliance will be formed Whether ir viii
take the shape of q community OF inter
ests cannot at this time be stated. Ger
tainlv there will be the interchange OF
traffic which will be mutually advan-
tageous.
1.-THE negotiations for the purchase of
the East and West by the Seaboard Air
Line. were begun almost Immediately af-
ter the effort made by the Seaboard to
buy control of the Louisville and Nash
Vile from John w. Gates had failed.
This rather strengthens the belief
that the Seahoard's management feel
that the road must be placed in commun-
ication with the West and North over in
dependent roads. in order to avoid being
shut in by it's formidable rival the
Southern, which, with the Louisville
now has an entrance to Chicago over the
Monond. The absorption of the Plant
System by the Atlantic Coast Line also
made it wise for the Seaboard to gain a
strategic position in the greatest freight
producing region of the South by enter
ing Birmingham
''At the time John w. Gates bought
control of the Luisville and Nashville
| in the open market, Prcsidenc john
Ske lton Williams, of the Seaboa"d, made
arrangements to offer him $3.50 share
cash fer his holdings of 10000 shares
making a bid of 500 00o. 900 cash. This
offer it is stated, was made an hour toe
late. for in that hour, ]. Pierpont Morgan
& Co. had obtained Louisville.
"Ihe offer was cash This is signi5i-
cant of the standing the SeabOard has in
the eyes of New York capitalists and re-
veals better than anything else the fact
| that the Seaboard, which few years age
was fighting for existence against the
Morgan has strong financial backing IL
the plants for its future development
What these are is not revealed; the plar
for the extension into Birmingham is sig
nificant.
1T is estimated that, including the
cost of the East and West the extension
of the Seaboard will call for an eXpen-
diture of $4.000.000 The East and West
| will be rebuilt and an extension from
CeGartown TO Atlanta and one from Pei
| City to Birmingham will be constructed
1.-The former extension will be thirty
seven miles and the latter thirty nine
miles long. 1t is hoped that the new
road will be ready for operation in ter
months"

WISE WORDS FIFTY SPOKEN

In his admirable speech at the North
Carolina Society banquet in New York,
General Ransom spoke of the hospitality
now shown by New York to North Caro-
linians and said that sectionalism was
a shadow of the past. Concerning the
race problem in the South he said:
Trust it to the wisdom of her people
and to their sense of right. 1t belongs
to the South, for it is in her homes, in
her religion. What country has done
for the savage what she has done for
the negro? l say to you men of New
York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, don't
rake this question up again to disturb
our people,
Wise words fifty spoken. 1t is mat
ter of regret that the speech of Senator
Ransom could not be published in full,
for it was doubtless full of as many
wise sayings as the above extract.
