NEW ICE MAKING MACHINE.
Invention of Greensboro rlan Which
1t is Said viii RevoIutionize the

Invention of a Greensboro rIan Which
1t is Said Will RevoIutionize the
Business.
The Greensboro Record tells of the
invention of Greensboro man which
it is said will revolutionize the ice
making business. 1t says:
Undergoing thorough test at the
Acme Mill Works at this place is a
new machine for making ice, the in
vention of S. S. Miles, of this place.
So far the test is perfect, and while
this ore is a small affair, Others of
proper size will soon be erected. Some
of the advantages claimed for the
new machine are that the old machine
uses from 200 to 22O pounds pres
sure all the time, while the new ma
chine can freeze at pressure OF 10
pounds. The pressure in pounds
never exceeds the temperature OF the
water; for cooling, the gas condenses
at 40 pounds pressure using we'll
water for cooling. The machine runs
cold without the help of a water
jacket and readily reduces brine to a
zero temperature. 1t is also stated
that ice can be made more cheaply
than the old way The machine can
run for half day with no attention,
other than putting in more water
and taking out the ice. No ammonia
is used in the process. Seven watts of
water containing enough for 30
pounds OF ice may be seen in the pro-
cess of freezing. Mr.. Miles has been
a resident of the city for about II
months, having come here from Gin
cinnati, Ohio. He has made study
OF refrigeration for twelve years.

Not a Free Medium.
New Berne journal.

Hardly a mail comes to the Jour-
nal Office, but in it there is a letter
asking for publication OF the ''enclos-
ed notice" of the claims of some can
didate for Office, and correspondents
also send, in their news letters, sug-
gested tickets which favor one or
more candidates.
To all of these, as we'll as in the
personal and individual request for
notices for friends who are seeking
political recognition, the Journal
must say "don't" try it any more,
for this newspaper is not a free
medium for the promotion of the
interests OF would-be office holders,
OF those seeking public recognition,
which is always best secured through
the publicity Of the press.
1t looks very easy, and perhaps
natural to those not connected with
the business, that a newspaper
should accept and publish the vari-
GUS notices sent it, but to the person
who has the newspaper, who must
pay the costs, and these often 90
beyond the mere type setting and
space used, for more trouble can
spring from free notices than any
thing else. To the newspaper pro-
prietor, this demand for the free
dom OF his columns, is an exhibit OF
nerve which is always astonishing,
but never amusing.

STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS

There is of necessity no antagonism
between the State and the Federal
courts. If the Federal courts are a
necessary part of the governmental
machinery, and have a mission OF
justice to perform, then they ought
to be free from unjust and malicious
criticism. For whom are these United
States courts constituted and who
have interests in them? If they are
for the people generally, then they
are entitled to proper respect, and
ought not to be referred to as though
they stood for foreigners and aliens
to the Commonwealth, as agencies
created to obstruct and destroy the
rightful operations of State laws.
Politics and partisanship ought to
be shut out of every court of Justice.
1t ought not to be thought of, much
less ought these influences to be en-
ployed to effect the dispensation OF
justice.-Raleigh Tines.
No necessity is good, but there
seems to be antagonism whether a
necessity of it or not, and some peo-
pie believe Federal courts are re-
sponsible for it in most cases. Fed
eral interference" is a term too often
used, but it is not always without
cause.
