WOman's Inhumanity to Woman.

We have all heard OF mans inhu-
manity to man, and understood that
to a degree at least oma was in
cluded, but it was left for Dorothy
Dix to contend in a recent magazine
article that woman's inhumanity to
woman is one of the most pronounced
characteristics OF the sex. A m
says the lady mentioned, can forgive
anything in a man but there is hard
ly anything that she will forgive in a
m Mrs. l.. H. Harris in the In
dependent takes a similar view. say
ing that women have less faculty for
converting or forgiving one another
han any other class Of people in the
world" Taking this as a text the New
York Mail produces a long article in
which it quotes somebody as saying
that men are magnanimouS and call
lous, like the Romans. and women e
der and vindictive, like the Greete.
The Mail CONSTITUTES Mrs. Harris to
mean that there is no such thing as
the sisterhood Of to cores
pond to the brotherhood OF men. There
is a weak point here for nobody thinks
of the brotherhood of man as not
including the weaker sex. But that
women are far less charitable in their
views about women than they are in
their views about men is O to be
denied for a moment. Let a woman
enter. a street car" says Dorothy Dix,
land see the calculating survey which
every other woman in the car makes
of her appeal and her appearance
from head to foot" And going back
to Mrs. Harris:
Spiritually minded women are I'M
able to meet on the same plane even
if God demanded it the repentant fall
len woman yet they will undertake
the reclamation of the most abandon
ed man with an angelic cordiality, a
sweet piety that it is as admirable as
1t is impracticable."
Dorothy Dix and Mrs. Harris are no
doubt, very bright and observant va
men, but we believe that they greatly
eXaggerate the faults Of their sex

In Nashville, Tennessee, one man
has brought suit against another,
claiming sixty dollars on a note.
The trial of the case developed the fol-
lowing remarkable facts: In January
1902. the defendant borrowed Of the
plaintiff the sum Of thirty-six dollars,
for which he gave his note for forty
dollars due in thirty days. When this
note became due the defendant renewed
it, paying interest as of the original
note. This renewal and payment of
interest was kept up until the defend
ant refused to pay any more and the
suit was brought. The plaintiff was
made to produce his books in court and
they showed that since January 1902,
on the thirty-six dollars paid TO the
defendant on his first note the borrow
er had paid the PLAINTIFF one hundred
and twenty-five dollars and still owed,
according to the lenders claim. the
sum of sixty dollars.

If h Asheville Citizen does not look

has the ~effrontery to criticize the man
ner in which juries are drawn by the
officials of Buncombe county. Now
Buncombe is a democratic county, Of
course and her officials are all demo-
Gratis. Still The Citizen finds fault
with much of the management of
county affairs it says:
1.-The citizen has at various times
called attention to the fact thai Bun
combe county is signally afflicted with
professional juries. Recently this pa
per has gone to h trouble to investi-
gate the illegal conditions which are
alleged to exist, and it has developed
the fact that the loud and vigorous
complaint Of the county bar is well
grounded.
'The presence OF professional juries
in any community is a disgrace to all
whose hands are in any way identified
with the production Of the same. The
law of North Carolina is plain and

and there is no excuse in the world
