who has a mission to perform and of
his own motion he will not turn aside
from it. Asked if he was in sympathy
with the suggestion of his name for
the Presidency, Mr.. Folk said:

the people of Missouri; this obligation
is SO definite that / cannot honorably
consider for one moment the nomina-
ton, or even the suggestion of the
nomination for any office other than
that of Governor of Missouri
The spirit of the man is beyond all
praise. The whole country needs more

be Governor because the office brings

Repetition of Previous Rcceivership
Mummery.

New Bern Journal.
Now that the public has the COM
mittee's report What is it going to do
with it? or what has been gained
in questioning the present State ad-
ministration's conduct in handling this
railroad property, for certainly ac-
cepting the very best construction that
can be placed upon all this hue ana
cry for Investigation, and the de-
mand to get at bottom facts it has
been a strange sight to find North
Carolinians, interested in North Caro-
lima property, supporting an outsider,
with no visible pecuniary interest in
running down their property, as well
as attempting the humiliation of the
chief State officials.
The latest contention for receiver
ship, is a repetition of the previous re-
ownership mummery, enacted by
Finch and McBee, as ostensible lead
ers. And to add to the absurd1ty or
the Cuyler asking, is the proven TACT
that this same Cuyler stock has voted
for, years to perpetuate the so-called
denominations which it now seeks to
remedy, per a receIvership.
But perhaps the real basis for the
uproar the pleadings, please Cover
nor Aycock, lease the Atlantic and
North Carolina road" is that the party
winch pdlu ~ VI % GEMS 10 10 sum
wants now to realize 100 cents and
this at the expense of the parties who
first paid loo cents on the dollar for
their stock and have since made the
business which today makes the Attain
tic and North Carolina a much sought
after property.
Business is always selfish, but 1t
pretty near reaches it's limit in the
case of the Atlantic and North Caro-
lima road, where the party who has
paid 80 cents, seeks to imDeach the
integrity and fairness of the party
who paid 100 cents for its stock, and
has brought up the property to where
it's value is not questioned.

One at p Time, if You Please.

Wilmington Dispatch.
The Dispatch holds the same opin-
ion which was formed when the
trouble began. If those Lumberton
lawyers tried to defy the law and
overturn the courts by an attack upon
the personal or judicial character of
a judge on the bench they should be
made to feel the gravity of the offense
they have committed. The courts
must be upheld in North Carolina. AS
to the charges that have been pre-
ferred against the individual character
of Judge PEBBLES, We say let them be
sifted to the bottom If Judge Pee
bles is a fit subject for impeachment
let him be impeached, but don't let a
handful Of lawyers conspire together
to overthrow the courts of the State.
The two things should not be con-
founded. One at a time, if you please,
and let the contempt proceedings come
first.

WHAT DOES CUYLER WANT?

Since the beginning of the Cuyler
suit there have been many theories
as to what Cuyler really wants and
what is behind his application for
receiyership. Nobody believes he is
SOLELY actuated by his little $1,000 of
stock. He has not been hurt by the
nresent management. Four years ago
ne could have sold his stock for only
twenty-five cents in the dollar. To-
day ne can get over fifty cents for
the same stock. He cannot, there
fore. show where he has been injured
in any way, for though he has re-
ceived no dividend his stock has
doubled in value, thus paying him
virtually a very large dividend.
AS to the matters complained of as
to mismanagament, Mr.. Cuyier is es-
topped from asking 4 receivership as
to any of them that have come before
the stockholders. In person or by
proxy Git is the same in either eVenD
he voted for every act that is al
legged to have been contrary to the
best interests of the property.
What does he WANT He says he
wants a receiver appointed What
for? To lease the road. to sell the
road. to run it indefinitely? Has he
or his attorneys picked out a favorite

lie has never requested the stock
tolders or directors to change any
policy or plan now criticised. And
yet, without even asking any change
or making any criticism, or asking
for anything particular, he hobs up
after the Finch McBee fiasco and asks
for a receivership. He adopts almost
word for word, including the Latin
mistake Finch's charges. Is it not
the same old coon with another ring
around his tail?
Mr.. Cuyler cannot want receiver
