CRlTlCISlNO THE RULING OF
JUDGES.
"TrOian" in Charlotte Observer.


"a travesty on justice" Iwould
hate very much to think it necessary
to use those words in applying them
to the ruling of Judge in North Car
Olina. The words in themselves ap-
pear to be dangerous and might be
used as incitement to lawlessness OF
many who might not be disposed to
abide by the verdict of a jury and a
sentence OF a Judge. The word trav-
esty may mean "burlesque," "a
parody" And that any one could
for a moment think it possible for a
Judge sitting on the bench to make a
burlesque of his business is simply
horrible. Suppose lawyer should
stand in court and use such words
we we'll know what might become OF
him. And yet they would not likely
t do so much harm there as when
printed in a paper having a wide cir.
culation. The fact of the business
according to my notion is that a
term in the penitentiary will do more
j in the direction of reforming a man
than to hang him. The second de.
gree murder law is one of the best on
our books. And as a Judge said to
me a few days ago, many man who
kills his fellow would 60 scot free but
for this law There are certain abso-
lutely essential ingredients to make
out case OF murder in the first de-
gree and no man ought to be hanged
whose Offense does not contain every
one of these essentials.

New Bern Journal.


The retirement of Jeter C. Pritchard
as United States Senator from North
Carolina, marks rather important
political event, especially in its rela-
tion to politics in this State.
Senator Pritchard' s political career
of the past six years has been made a
stormy one by North Carolina Dem
ocrats but throughit it all the Senator
has borne himself well, standing
firmly by his political convictions,
thus winning the admiration of even
those who would like to see him ruin
! ed, politically.
Personally, Mr.. Pritchard dhasscon-
Quoted his Senatorial life most cour-
teously, there has been no favoritism
shown, the Senator being approach
able by any and every North Caro-
linian who might have business to
transact.
Mr.. Pritchard's return to private
life does not mean his effacement po-
litically, for the word comes from
Washington that he is to be continued
in the Republican leadership in this
/ State, which means that the Demo
Gratis are to be confronted by an able
and stalwart political opponent.
Senator Pritchard's six years in
public office have won him an honor
able fame, at the same time which ID
more important, his-services to his
State have been of value and great
assistance in ways to promote its
material growth and development.

HOMlCIDES IN NORTH AND SOUTH
CAROLINA.

Charleston News and Courier.
The figures given by the report of
the Attorney General show plainly
that the crime of murder is mcreas-
ing in North Carolina also. The re-
port gives two-year periods from
January 1, 1889, to 1903, making
seven such periods. In the first there
were 80 murder trials, in the second
154, in the third 1S9, in the fourth
1856, in the fifth 1873, in the sixth 1S9,
in the seventh 2O4. Trials for man
slaughter have increased from / 5 for
the first period to 60 for the last,
and trials for murder in the second
degree, which during the first two
years were only 40, are now 81.
Burglary has increased from "a to
so, and assault from 25 to 81.
AS the report gives two years to
each period it appears that the num-
Der of ''homicides"- as shown by
trials for murder" manslaughter'
and murder in the second degree
for the last two years was 358; which
is not SO bad as sSouth Carolina s 223
last year. Making allowance for the
difference in population, moreover,
our record is twice as bloody as our
neighbor's. We are making an evil
reputation for our State, and should
unmake it at whatever cost to the
feelings of the manslayers.

GOOD ROADS A TRADE PRO-
lection.


The farmers of this section cannot
but be surprised to see the readiness
of the farmers in other sections Of the
State, who are voting to issue bonds
to build good country rOadways.
$4,000 and much larger sums in
bonds are readily voted in order to
secure good roads, and even with the
bonds voted, and the bonded debt
incurred, there is heard no complaint
because Of the Indebtedness.
With good roads, produce and mer-
chandise can be readily moved, and
business is not checked when it rains,
and the town markets made bare OF
all country products, only to be
glutted with produce when the
weather clears and the roads become
passable.
Good rOadways are trade prOtec.
ton to the farmer and to the town
merchant.
The farmer is protected by having
good roads, because he can market
his products at any season of the
year, especially when prices are high
est for his produce, and not be com
PEELED to remain at home, if the road.
are bad, subj ject to fair weather
The town merchant is protected by
having good roads leading from hi.
place of business into the country, al
such roadways assure travel, an(
travel means trade, and in addition
where good roads lead from th'
country to town, that town can fee
certain that the farmers will no
leave the good roads, to haul thei
produce to some other place to sell
The town having good countr,
roads leading into it, can have M
business rival, except it be the tow
with equally good roads.

ONLY NARROW MINDED PARTl-
SANS CRiTICISE.
Raleigh Times.

Raleigh Times.
'If Mr.. Simmons assists in making
a place for Senator Pritchard then
we cannot blame Mr.. Overman for
endorsing him." We take the above
from one of our exchanges.
We think the spirit OF that reference
is hardly fair to either Mr.. Simmons
or Mr.. Overman. In the first place,
we are sure Mr. Simmons did nothing
for Mr.. Pritchard which could in the
least be criticised by the strictest
party constructionist. Mr.. Simmons
has long ago established the bound,
ary lines between the Republican and
Democratic parties and those who
know him will not fear that these
lines will remain sharp and decisive.
This can be and yet Mr.. Simmons
| can be courteous and kind to Mr..
Pritchard. Mr. PIitchard was all oi
| that to Mr. Simmons when he reached
| Washington as Senator from North
| Carolina.
What we say of Mr.. Simmons We
may also say OF Mr.. Overman. the
truth is the State has much to hope
for, and much to reasonably expect
from the men who represent her II
| the Senate of the United States One
OF the chief things to be thankful fol
is that Mr.. Simmons and Mr. Over
man are both young men and w
may reasonably hope the days o
their usefulness shall extend far int
| the future.

SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP.
Cured by One Bottle Of Chamber
lain'S Couch Remedy.

when had an attack of the grip last
winter {the second one) actually cured my
self with one bottle of Chamberlain Cough
Remedy" says Frank W. Perry, editor of the
Enterprise, Shortsville, N. Y. This is the
honest truth l at times kept from coughing
myself to pieces by taking a teaspoonful of
this remedy, and when the coughing spell
would come on at night l would take dose
and it seemed that in the briefest interval the
cough would pass off and l would go to
sleep perfectly free from cough and it's ae-
companying pains. To say that the remedy
acted as most agreeable surprise Is putting
it very mildly. had no idea that it would
or could knock out the grip, simply because
had never tried it for such purpose but it
did. and it seemed with the second attack of
coughing the remedy caused it to not only be
of less duration, but the pains were far less
severe, and had not used the contents OF
one bottle before Mr.. Grip had bid me adieu.

HENDERSON, c.. THURSDAY MARCH 20, 1903.
COULD CAJOLE THE DEVIL.

Mr.. /. E. Avery in his variety ol
Idle Comment" column in the Char
lotte Observer, says this of Dr. E. A.
Alderman:
Col J. R. Morris, who recently re-
turned from a visit to New Orleans,
said that DR.. Edwin A. Alderman,
formerly president OF the State Uni
versity and now president of Tulane,
is the most popular man in New Or
leans, and other authorities say that
DR.. Alderman has had to wear full
dress clothes every night since he has
been in the big Southern city. And
Harper's Weekly features" DR.. Al
derman as a imam of the future
not in anyone State, but in America.
Any one who knows DR.. Alderman
knows he may do anything big
may become anything that is big.
He is not a profound man, despite
his delightful parade of isms before
Northern universities, but he is the
most pleasing citizen that this State
ever produced and with a fair mar
gin of time he could cajole the devil
into his way of thinking.
