FOOT BALL.

Prospects for game of foot ball
with b. &. were very good until last
night when manager Biggs phoned
over and claimed some of their men
were hurt in practice and could not
come. He SAID they were to play Fos-
toria and fill the vacancies with the
coaches. The substance of the affair
is that Bowling Green is afraid to
play over here because they know
would be beaten. The Perrysburg
boys were practicing every night for
this game and were just getting in
good shape when b. G. showed her
"yellow streak.". Well, in one sense
b. G. was very wise in not coming for
they would haye gone home very sore
and tired.
A game is looked for with East To-
ledo Team Sunday at Creaseus Park.
This will be a good game as the e. rs
are very fast and SO is P'burg. ~

SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED.

TayIOrsViIIe Scout.
For the first time, in the history OF the
North Carolina Judiciary, the lawyers OF
a court have boycotted judge and abso-
lutely refused to appear before him in
any case. This action was taken III Lum-
oerton, Robson county, where Judge
PEBBLES was to hold court this week. 1t
will be remembered that this Judge made
himself obnoxious in the Haywood trial,
last year in Raleigh, and, it is said, he
has since treated attorneys with dscourte-
sy and shown partiaity If such he the
case the Governor of the State should
cause a little investigating to be done at
once. Let Judge PEBBLES be cleared of
these charges or be retired from the bench.

The last issue of Winston's Weekly,

Winston, at Spokane, issued from the
presses on the very day of his sudden

appeared that wasn't ''racy of the soil'-
the North Carolina soil. Two editorial
paragraphs are copied from the News and
Observer, and one of his editorials show
ed that, though far from his native land,
his heart turned back to Dixie" Under
the heading, Its A Far Cry" Mr.. Win

To say the least of it the action of the
Robson county bar in declining to set
the calendar for the term of Superior
court on the ground that Judge r. Z.
PEBBLES is unfair in his rulings and incom-
petent as a judge, was a high-handed, ma
licious piece of business and a severe
lesson should be taught them. Judge
PEBBLES says the action Of the bar has set
at defiance both the law and the court,
and he will institute contempt proceed
ings against all lawyers who took part in
the unwarranted act. Judge PEBBLES is
precisely correct. A contempt has been
shown for the law and the court and the
guilty parties should have the law APP
piled to them in full force.
