MIR. LEONARD'S POSER.

Mr.. Franklin Leonard. who was the
Democratic candidate in close dis
trict in Manhattan last year, writes
an open letter to President Mccall that
he is satisfied that the funds contrib

my defeat and submits this poser:

how much of my money paid to your

the return of this trust fund to the
life insurance companies, he will
thereby go back on his motto of

JUDGE WALKERS OPINION.

One of the ablest and most elabor-
ate opinions of the Supreme Court in
this decade is the opinion of the court
written by Justice Walker in the inn
portant McCown case. 1t is really
very strong opinion. The court holds
that the right to punish for contempt
is inherent in the nature and consti-
tuition of the court. and that if the act
of 1871 does not embrace this case and
i'm terms repeats the common law ap-
plica BILE to it. 1--WE would not hesitate
to declare the statute in that respect
unconstitutional and void" Much au-
thority-and high authority--is quot
ed i'm support of that position and to
show that the Legislative Department
cannot deprive the Judicial branch or
it's inherent powers conferred by
the Constitution. In the North Caro-
lima Supreme Court the act of 1871
with reference to contempt was up

COTTON WEIGHTS AT GIN.

A farmer writing to the North
Carolina Department Of Agriculture,
says: This morning | carried a bale

How Editors Get Rich.
(Morehead Coaster.)

After a good deal of study and
work we have at last figured out why
so many country editors get rich.
Here is the secret of success. A child
is born in the neighborhood, the at
tending physician gets $40; the edi-
tor gives the loud-lunged youngster
and the happy parents send-off
and gets so 1t is christened; the
minister gets $40, and the editor gets
500. 1t grows up and marries; the
editor publishes another long winded
howery article and tells dozen lies
about the beautiful and accomplish
ed bride the minister gets ten dol
lars and a piece of cake, and the
editor gets 5000. In the course of time
it dies, and the doctor gets from $50
to 500, the minister perhaps gets
another $15, the undertaken gets
from $50 to 500; the editor pub
fishes a notice of the death and All
obituary two columns long, lodge and
society resolutions, a lot of poetry
and a free card of thanks, and gets
10000 No wonder SO many country
editors get rich.
