TRY STATE COURTS
NOW.
Judge PurnelI viii Ask Judge
Bryan for Restraining
Order.

Judge Thos. r. Purnell will bring an
action IN the State court to test the valid
lty of the tax on his income assessed
against him and held by the Corporation
Commission to be a valid tax Judge
Henry R. Bryan, of New Bern. viii be
asked to issue an order restraining the
sheriff of Wake county from proceeding
to collect the tax.
This action of Judge Purnell's is in ac-
eordance with the recent opinion of Judge
Slmontoi, holding that the United States
courts had no jurisdiction, because the
amount involved was under $4,000.
The process will be returnable before
Judge Bryan some time during l'next
month, when he will be asked to perpet-
ually enjoin the sheriff from collecting
the tax. If Judge Bryan should refuse
the permanent injunction Judge Purnell
will doubtless appeal to the Supreme court
and If he should grant it the Corporation
Commission will doubtless appeal If there
should be any further appeal, the case
would theE get in the United States Su-
preme Court

DEDICATION SUNDAY 1T WILL BE RESISTED
Prosecution in the Haywood
Skinner Case Confer.
The Application for Haywood Release on Bail
Will be Fought With all the Evidence
That is in Hand.

The attorneys for the prosecution in
the case of Ernest Haywood charged
with the murder of Ludlow Skinner were
In the city yesterday. To the outside pub
nc it appeared that they came because
of the writ of habeas corpus.
But here comes curious coincidence
Acting Solicitor Walter Daniel of We'll
don, Senator Donnell Gillian, of Tarboro
Senator John E. Woodland, of Wilson,
Senator Herbert E. Norris, of Raleigh and
Mr., Robert G. Strong, of Raleigh, would
have all been here yesterday even if there
had been no application for a writ.
They knew nothing of petition or of it
having been agreed upon, but had all
agreed to be here today to consult CON
corning the case. In fact Senator Gil
liam was on his way from Tarboro and
only learned that there had been a writ
taken out when he reached Wilson and
there met Senator Woodland and Mr..
James II. Pou who was in Wilson on legal
business.
The attorneys for the prosecution were
in consultation yesterday afternoon and
last night concerning their procedure in the
hearing of the writ before Judges Doug
lass and Walker next Thursday While
they gave out nothing it is learned that
vigorous fight will be put up against
the granting of any bail to Mr.. Ernest
Haywood and that they will urge that
murder is the charge on which he still
be held
Subpoenas have been issued by both
prosecution and defence, but in some
cases it is expected that affidavits will
be filed. The prosecution feels that at the
hearing the case viii be fully entered
into, and it feels that it will be able to
present to the court the case in such
an aspect that bail viii not be granted
The out of town attorneys will return
to their homes this morning, but will be
back in Raleigh in ample time for the
hearing next Thursday. The outlook is
that it will be impossible to hear the
case in its entirety on that day and that
the hearing will 60 on for some days.
This hearing will be in the county court
house. This was agreed on yesterday
and it is more than probable that at this
hearing all the material facts of the de-
fence and prosecution will be brought
out.

CONVENTION CALLED
To Meet Here for Temper
ance on July 9TH.
J. W. Bailey Manager for Education Committee
Of Anti-SaIoon League, Issues
The Call,

Mr.. ]. W. Bailey manager for the Exc
cutive Committee of the North Carolina
Anti-Saloon League, yesterday issued the
following call:
After careful consideration, the Execu-
tive Committee of the North Carolina
Anti-Saloon League has called Temper
ance Convention to meet at Raleigh, July
18th. 1903.
This convention is demanded by the
conditions:
/. We have vast amount of temper
ance sentiment in the State, but it is un.
organized In the process of organizing
it, this convention is necessary.
2. We are about to enter great cam
paign.
g. We must greatly strengthen our OPP
erations.
We cannot cope with the situation on
the present basis. The present Executive
Committee needs enlargement, and those
who shall lead our cause need the support
of convention representing the entire
commonwealth.
The present manager of the campaign
cannot find time to carry out all his du-
ties. We must put a man in the field
who will give himself wholly to this work
Until we shall do this, we cannot reckon
ourselves as very seriously engaging in
conflict with the giant drink evil.
The convention will have for its pur-
pose: u The marshaling of the tenn
perance forces of our State for the con-
fict now so close at hand; (2) the re-
organization of our executive department;
CD the selection of one more field man;
(4) the putting of our work upon an ade-
quate basis; 60 the work of forming our
policy.
Now, who should attend this conven-
ton?
Every one that is in earnest in this
great cause. If our convention shall Tail.
it will be taken as sign that interest is
not great. Every county should be repre-
scented. Our prohibition counties owe the
cause in active counties sympathy and
support. Besides, many of them need or.
ganization for law enforcement. Every
Incorporated town, and especially such as
are not protected against saloons and dis
tilleries, should be represented.
The ministers of North Carolina are
counted upon to attend in large numbers
Every Anti-Saloon League in the State
should send a delegation, and every place
that intends to organize a league or in
stitute campaign against the drink evil
should send representatives.
The business men and the citizens who
feel an interest in this great work are
especially urged to be present. We shall
need them most Of all.
Remember the date, July 18th, and the
place. Raleigh. Railroad rates will be an
nounced later.

Catholic 0rphanage Church
Being Rapidly Finished.
Bishop Leo Haid viii bs Here, as Well as Many
Priests From Distance---A Large
Crowd Expected.

Everything is on Hustle at the Cath
olie Orphanage. Carpenters, painters and
upholsterers of all kinds are busily engaged
in putting on the finishing touches. The
church is certainly unique and its interior
presents the boldest design possible of the
sanctuary.
While everything is being pushed as
rapidly as possible, the management say
that number of things that have been
planned have been put aside because work
men could not be found and the railroads
SO greatly delayed the freights. The dedi-
cation was delayed as long as possible, but
owing to the fact that Bishop Haid was
obliged to pay his official visit to Rome
Immediately after May 18th, the dedication
could not longer be deferred. Every Cath
Ole Bishop throughout the world is obliged
every ten years to pay an official visit to
Rome and render to the Pope an account
of his diocese. The time has come for
Bishop Haid to perform this duty and fur
Their delay is impossible.
Yesterday a sife-sized painting of the
crucifixion was received by express and
will be Immediately placed on the main al
tar.
There will be two choirs in the church.
one placed in the sanctuary. which will
render the Gregorian chants, and one
placed in the gallery. AS there will be
many visitors from a distance who may
not know where to procure meals or re,
freshments a stand is being placed at the
orphanage for their accommodation, where
they can procure necessary food and drink
at reasonable rates.
The railroads have granted reduced
rates throughout the State and from Nor
folk, Richmond, etc. Persons de-
string to make use OF these rates will ask
for special rates to Raleigh. Tickets on
these rates are procurable the 18th, 10th
and 18th of Nav.
Rev. Father O'Brien, who has been at
Fayetteville has already arrived for the
dedication services. Others will come in
during the next day or two from Vir-
ginia and North Carolina Bishop Had
will arrive here tomorrow
Father Price calls attention in a card
published elsewhere that the public are all
cordially invited and that no special invi-
tations have been issued. save to some Of
ficials, owing to the fact that it was i'm
possible to reach all who in the past have
shown themselves such friends to the or
phana-e.
The services will be at II a. m. and 4
p. m.

GREETING.

We are men of work-day training
Who earn our bread by sweat of brow;
Can our hands, their work disdaining,
Sway the realm of letters now?
Can the toil-worn hands that wrought
Full manfully in wood and field,
To this grave task of letters brought,
Earn rich reward or harvest yield?
Will the hands that have excelled
The work of shop or drawing room,
To this stern work of letters held,
Do aught else save to write their doom
Can the hands that nimbly weaving
Cloth of chic design and hue,
Their own occupation leaving.
Some other work as well pursue?
We but serve our Anna Mater,
We do our best from sense of duty;
We plant latent seed that later
May grow into thing of beauty.
AS children strive their sires to please
So we have worked the best intent,
Nor given ourselves to idling ease;
Our hearts to labor of love were bent.
For praise or fame we do not ask;
With swelling hearts we give this token,
Freely wrought, for twas loves task;
Alma Mater, It's to thee our loving
hearts have spoken.
