THE PANAMA REVOLUTION AND
1HE CANAL.

There is a widespread suspicion that
the Panama revolution was inspired.
When the Columbian government re-
fused to ratify the treaty, the law required
the construction of the canal through
Nicaragua. The President is as averse
to that canal as Senator Hanna is to
any canal. What more reasonable than
that certain opponents of any canal and
the opponents of Nicaragua should see in

Among the Railroads.

The Southern Railway authorities have
inaugurated most commendable plan
in regard to giving out news of railroad
accidents. Superintendent Baker, of the
Charlotte division. as soon as he can get
the facts, issues report to the local
papers giving as near as possible a list
of the dead and injured, the cause of the
wreck and any other notes of interest
connected Herewith. This is an example
of candor which the public will appre-
ciate. and in the end the Southern will
profit thereby.

America, large or small, that has city

New York drove out Deveryism. Is
there enough virtue in Raleigh to drive
from power the public officials who have
a contempt for the expressed will OF a
large majority of all the voters in Raleigh?
If not, then the name of the town-in
its public documents and public records at
least, should be changed TO Sodom.
Though defeated at the polls, after a
long and hard fought campaign last
month, the liquor dealers of Raleigh die
tated last night the selection of the men
who are to manage the dispensary. They
did this by the votes of two bar-keepers.
without the vote of the two bar-keepers
on the board of aldermen, the men So
lected by the friends of the dispensary
would have been chosen. The men Sc
lected owe their election to the two bar
keepers and the opponents of the dispen-
sary. Behind them were certain well
known politicians who used all their pull
to defeat the dispensary. They failed
when they appealed to the people. They
succeeded by vote of 9 to Z when they
appealed to the board of aldermen. They
will find later on that there is Fan appeal

The washout on the Rio Grande di-

quarters of a mile south of Limetar, a
small station north of Socorro. The
gap in the grade under the tracks was
about ten yards long and caused by
the breaking of an acequia. The water
was damned and the track cribbed up
sufficiently strong to let trains pass
over it today
