about we are going to say but

on the floor of the house the other day.

SO far as to admit that sometimes the
white men in his state look the law
into their own hands and swung I'D

to make such a statement. The ne

AN INNOVATION BY OoRoNER's
JURY.

1t strikes The Messenger that il is
rather a late day for an attempt to
establish the precedent hat the public
shall be excluded from Investigations
by juries in North Carolina.
Had not the representatives of the
press sought legal advice they would
have been excluded from the hearing
sf the ~coroner's jury on Wednesday in
the case OF the death Of the negro
Hankins. We suppose this was the
first time in the history OF our state
when a coroner's jury decided that
reporters should not attend
its meeting in order to hear the testi-
mony OF witnesses regarding the homi-
eide. This would lay been a remark
able precedent to establish. We are
glad the jurors re~considered their ac-
ton and rescinded the resolution for
bidding n presence of the reporters.
OF course had the jury carried u its
first intention to exclude newspaper
reporters il would have had TO make its
action apply to all other persons. We
do not D his particular jury in
tended TO go so far as TO open its pro-
ceedings to the public generally, but
excepting newspaper men. That would
have been a still more remarkable
proceeding.
Now, since we a W come to think
abou the matter more carefully, we
cannot see which would have been the
more remarkable procedure on the part
of hat ury-to exclude the entire pub
lie from its sittings/and hold a sort Of
Star Chamber court. or open its doors
to the general public, but making an
exception of newspaper representa-
tives.

that they are to steal a continnet OF

public docks. The matter will be
brought before the board of aldermen

The city owns about ten docks
Many of them are in extremely poor
condition and it would take a consi Ter
able amount of money to make the
necessary repairs. If leased the city
would reserve several of h docks.
One dock was rented asst year.
Tt is said hat nearly every city or

1t is pointed out that by leasing the
docks the city could make them a good
