GOTTI SENT THE
POPE'S BLESSING

A short time since there was re-
ceiyed at the Catholic Mission in this
city an official package from the Vat
lean. 1t was at first believed to con-
tain the commission of appointment
to the new Bishop of Hawaii. The
letter enclosed in the envelope, how
ever, was from the Prefect OF the
Propaganda, Cardinal Gotti, and was
a mail reply to the cablegram sent
by the late Bishop asking for the
Pope's blessing before he passed to the
Great Beyond.
Cardinal Gotti stated in the letter
that the cablegfam had been presented
to His Holiness Pope Leo XIII VINO
gave the blessing and instructed tne
writer to send his blessing to the Blsn,
op of Panopolis, the clergy ana an
Catholics in the Islands. Cardinal
Gotti also sent his own wishes LOT the
Bishops health and his congratuia-
lions on the opening of the Pacific ca
BILE. Da
The letter was written IN rome
several days after the death OF the
/ Bishop had occurred.

HOW JUDGE LITTLE
PILES UP COSTS

HILO, Hawaii, Feb. 12-"This is my
calendar. and I will call it as I see fit"
In these words Circuit Judge Little
proclaimed to the lawyers in his court
that he was the real thing when it came
to being boss, and that the expense to
the Territory in the matter of witness
fees, and the wear and tear upon at
torneys and their clients in being called
into court at all kinds of inconvenient
hours cut no figure with him. Judge
Little, in fact, has been leading attor-
neys and witnesses and court officers
something of life during the last term.
He has held court from a. m. to II
noon every day from 1870 to $50 p. m,
and again in the evening from seven
o'clock until midnight. And the States
attorneys have been allowed no say
whatever in the matter of calling cases
for trial If the Judge wanted to try
a case. it has been called-and If the
States witnesses were not on hand the
case has been nolle pressed, of neces-
sity. A case cannot be tried, at least
with any hope of conviction, if the wit
nesses for the prosecution are not pres
ent.
The result of all this has been that
witnesses living in remote parts of the
circuit, have been sent for and held at
Hilo. They had to be held, because the
State has never been sure at what
moment they would be needed. And
that has caused vast piling up on in
cidental expenses, the bill for which
will come on the Territory, even though
the officers have cut the fees down as
much as they dared.
There was one case, the strongest
case of Illicit liquor selling the State
had, the prosecuting witness in which
had been allowed to go home sick, one
night On that particular night the
Judge arbitrarily called that particular
case, whether or no, and of course the
prosecution failed. And then Judge
Little said that it was his calendar, and
he would call it as he saw fit.

Charlotte Cotton Situation.

The farmers of M~ecklenburg Coun-
ty are showing their independence by
holding their cotton for better
prices. The total receipts at the city
platform yesterday we're ffty-fve
bales, the highest price being 9.55
cents. For the corresponding date
of last year the receipts we're sixty
three bales and the best price 8.15
cents. The receipts for the week end
ing yesterday, we're 947 bales, or
slightly over half the number sold
the corresponding week of last
year, which was 1,848 bales.
The farmers have had unusually
fine weather this fall for picking
the staple and there are several thou
sands of bales of unsold cotton in
the county now. Many of the larg-
est planters of the county have sold
no cotton since the price fell from
1880 and II cents. They store and
insure cotton in the bonded ware
houses of the city, and if they need
any money it is an easy matter to get
it with the cotton as security.
The receipts of cotton seed have

also decreased since the price of
that product dropped from 227h
cents to 10 and 10 cents per bushel.
The Scotch-Irish farmers of this
county and section want the top
notch price, and they are holding
back their seed until they get it. The
price of seed went to 80 cents a
bushel last year.ECharlotte Obser-

severe criticism Of Iudge Peebles.

No editor who processes to ac-
%curately portray the news of North
Carolina can afford to overlook the
storm of criticism which has been
called forth by the conduct of Judge
PEBBLES in the Haywood murder trial.
We give herewith three or four news
paper opinions:
Charlotte News: If Judge PEBBLES
sentences his editorial critics for
contempt of court, the North Caro-
lima Press Association will have it's
annual meeting in jail instead of in
Washington. Our only defense is
that it vas impossible for us to ex-
press our contempt of the court.
Concord Times: Judge B. PEBBLES
has within the past two weeks made
for himself a name in North Caro-
lima which will go down to history.
Nothing he may ever do in the flu
ture will erase from the minds of
the good people of North Carolina
the impression made there last week.
Who can hereafter have any conf
dence in his fairness and justice?
We take it hal his judicial career
will end when his present term ex-
pires, as we have more faith in the
people of the State than to believe
that they would endorse min by a
reelection.
Tarboro Southerner: Whether
Ernest Haywood was criminally
guilty of Staying Skinner or not, is
not a matter now to be inquired in
to. A jury that violates it's duty
may be trusted, sooner or later,
to receive the condemnation of their
neighbors. The jury in this case re
turned the only verdict that was ad-
Missile under the charge of the
presiding judge, Robert B. PEBBLES.
That charge was the strongest plea
for the defense, if the newspaper re-
ports are correct. Tt evidenced an
unfairness punctuated with a bias,
a disregard of the judicial proprie-
ties, that we hope has not been
equaled since George Jefreys was
imprisoned in the tower of London
for the fragrant injustice he dis
played on the bench.

Satesville Landmark: A few weeks
ago a prohibition election was held
in Scotland Neck and prohibition
was defeated by ten votes. It was
claimed that illegal votes were cast
and there was a threat of going in
to. the courts, but the matter has
been amicabfy adjusted. Both sides
have agreed that the sale of liquor
may continue until January 1, 1905,
and the number of dealers shall not
be Increased within that period. At
ter January 1, 1905, all hands are to
pull together for absolute prohibi-
ton or a dispensary. This is an I'm
usual if not a novel arrangement, but
the liquor people appear to think
it-better to have fifteen months of
uninterrupted business than to be
kept in uncertainty; and the anti
folks appear to think it is bet
ter tobe sure of what they want
fifteen months hence than to be In

The Chinese Labor Question.

The United States is meeting the
same trouble that has confronted all
nations in the worlds history, when
they have extended their domain over
vast areas, and embraced people un-
der different climatic, economic and
social conditions. The United States
passed the Chinese exclusion act, pro-
hibiting the Chinese from coming
here to compete with white labor. 1t
is now discovered that the sugar plan
tations in Hawaii cannot be WORKED
by white labor, and that they must
have Chinese labor to.run them, and
an effort will be made to amend the
exclusion act SO that it will permit
the importation OF Chinese labor into
our new possession, Hawaii, to work
the sugar plantations. ..Organized Ia
Dor will oppose this The result will
be watched by the people of the ell
tire country. For If the Chinese can
be brought there, it will not be long
before there will be demand that
they be brought here, to perform la

Germany knows that France is her
vigilant, relentless, never sleeping
enemy, who has not forgotten the loss
of Alsac and Lorraine by the war Of
1872, and only awaits chance to re-
take IT.. she also knows that Russia
is linked to France by mutual hatred
of Germany. Whichever way Ger
many turns she can see no aid that
would help her in the attempt to de-
stroy the Monroe Doctrine, and seize
territory in South Ameria, for such
an attempt would mean war with the
United States. Thus she stands baf-
fed before the world, and hurls her
denunciations against the Monroe
d. ctrine. OF course Germany makes
great protests the friendship for
the United States, but this country
has not forgotten how the German
navy at Manila almost bid defiance to

Did Not Act in Good Faith.

The state supreme court has decided
that a railroad company has the right
to refuse to redeem tickets purchased
pf It but remaining unused in the
hands Of the purchasers. o. J. jolly
Of Rand brought suit against the Nil.
yankee, asserting that the road re.
fused to redeem sixteen tickets that
he had purchased and had not used,
The state law provides that the re:
fusal of the road to redeem ticket
makes it liable to a forfeit of 800 to
the person purchasing the ticket. In
the course of the suit 1t appeared that
jolly had purchased the tickets with
no intention Of using them, but merely
with the intention of demanding this
forfeit, when the road refused to re-
deem them. The court holds that he
was not acting in good faith and can
hot claim the forfeit.
