Judge Boyd Roasted.
CWilkesboro Chroniclc.)


II was a great surprise to our people
when it was learned that Judge Boyd,
judicial officer of the great United
States fighting the law to establish
Federal court here Something over two
years ago. Judge Boyd wrote Mayor Hen
dren. of this place, endorsing the propo-
sition for a court here, recognizing the
justice and necessity for it, both from a
point of economy to the government, and
convenience to the people interested. He
had not been appointed to high ana
lucrative life job under the United States
government He had not then mounted
so high as to ignore the needs and con-
venicnces of the people. But change
came over the spirit of his dreams.
He dreamt that there was no court house
in Wilkes; that there were no hotel or
other accommodations, Klondyke and
otherwise equal to what he experienced
on the private car of the railroad at
torney when he had under consideration
the Wilkes bond easel; and last but not
least he dreamt that there could not be
found in Wilkes or the contiguous noun
tain territory an intelligent, honest hon
orablc jury capable of rendering YER
dict in a case between the United States
government and it's individual citizens.
This shows that Boyd has become
drunk with authority" His statements
are without foundation, gratuitous and
malicious. Judge Boyd is aware that
l. We have a new commodiOus, con-
venient court house, with ample facilities
for the Federal courts, which has been
rendered free for the use of the govern
ment.
g We have hotel and other accommo-
dations good enough for any reasonable
person, though perhaps not so alluring
and convivial as the private car of a
railroad attorney when bond questions
involving the railroads are to be passed
upon.
s. We have in Wilkes and contiguous
territory a citizenship from which can
be chosen jurors as honest. intelligent
and honorable as are found on the globe.
Wilkes has produced some of the brain
lest, bravest and most distinguished men
Of the land and the race has not de-
Perforated
1t is a pleasure to our people to know
| that Senators Pritchard and Simmons
and Representatives Blackburn and
KIuttz vigorously protested against these
falsehoods. They know our people and
speak the truth in denying the charges.
1t is a surprise and is regretted by our
people that Boyd should act so badly.
But what more could be expected from a
man who "Ku Kluxed with the regula-
tors" and then 'peached with the ne
grocs," was recognized with the Con-
federate veterans and then in a Chicago
speech denounced them as traitors?

more sensational than the killing. The

believe it is the custom with these large

that reflects on the character of wo-

AS TO BOND ISSUES.
Roanoke Chowan Times.

Roanoke Chowan Times.
The question of a bond issue to provide
for needed and urgent public improve
ments is being discussed by our law
makers at Raleigh. No bonds should be
issued to pay current expenses of the
State government, but if they are really
needed to make permanent improvements
that will benefit the people for years to
come there should be no hesitancy to
provide for them The matter should be
considered from a business standpoint.
This generation should not be made to
bear all the burden of providing for all
the necessities of the next. We trust
our legislators will settle this question
without considering whether their vote
will help to get them back to Raleigh two
years hence.
