SICKENING AND DISGUSTING.

There were cheers in. the court
room in Durham, says the Herald,
when the squire announced that there
was not evidence enough to bind over
the woman, Bertha Brown. That is
a sorry advertisement for Dur
ham. If the Herald correctly print
ed the evidence, the wo
man should have been bound over TO
court and put to work on the roads
But, whether the evidence justified
binding over or not. the spectacle OF
any body of men who could so far for,
get themselves as to applaud the vic
tory of a notorious bad woman, who
was made to leave Raleigh, is sicken-
ing and disgusting. If that perform
ance is tolerated, we shall next have
heroines Of her whose feet take hold
on hell"
Shame on Durham and Durham
manhood! The good people in that
town-and they are in the majority
and will yet assert themselves-hung
their head in shame when they read o;
the disgusting occurrence.
There are base fellows in every
town who would have done what was
done in Durham, but few would have
been SO braZen.

WANTED: PROHIBIITONISTS TO
PULL CHESTNUTS OUT OF
THE FIRE. ~

The saloon men understand very
well that no prohibitionist will vote
"for saloons" unless he gets excite
and becomes more violent against one
day time dispensary than against
twenty-fou day and night saloons and
dives. Therefore, as the second step
in the campaign in Raleigh projected
by ex-saIoOn keepers i'm Raleigh and
elsewhere the emiSSarieS of the
saloons are seeking to induce certain
prohibitionists TO pull the chestnurs
out of the fire for them. They wish
to see the temperance forces in Raj
eigh Chose for prohibition and those
who think dispensary is as far as tenn
perance forces ought to go now di-
vided into hostile camps, debating and
discussing the relative merits of the
dispensary and prohibition. They
know if they can secure a row between
the temperance forces, the saloon men
can get i'm the saddle. Therefore
they are suggesting that the prohibit
tionists ought to join with the saloon
forces and get up a petition-pull
chestnuts out of the fire for the
saloonsi
Twill you walk into my parlor said
the spider to the fiy?"
The prohibitionists in Raleigh have
as their cardinal principle Down with
the saloon and the men in league with
the saloon They will not hear the
voice of the tempter charm he never
SO wisely.
In Asheville, the temperance forces
got into a wrangle and a big row
upon the relative merits of dispensary
or prohibition. What was the result?
The saloons got q new lease of power
and a board of aldermen that has
abolished the Sabbath as a day when
trade in shops shall be suspended.
The temperance forces in Raleigh
will stand united.

Among the Railroads.

The modified plan of the Seaboard
Air Line Railway is an unquestioned
success. Its prompt endorsement and
acceptance by a large majority of the
stockholders makes it an accomplished
fact. The plan of the new owners will
be perfected without any further delay
or difficulty.
In a recent issue the New York
News Bureau says: "MesSrs. Thomas
f. Ryan, Blair & Co, Ladenburg,
Thalmann & Co. and other members
of this committee are receiving con-
gratulatory letters and kilograms on
the great success of the Seaboard re-
adjustment plan from stockholders
who are interested IN the plan"
Said q prominent financier here to-
day The success of the modified
plan has been as remarkable as ii Is
satisfactory. especially in view of the
fact that the action of the stockhold-
ers in approving it was entirely volun-
taly. The holders of over SO per cent
of the outstanding stock, of their own
vOlition promptly deposited their stock
with the trust companies designated.
and since the expiration of the time
in which deposit of stock was to DC
made, numerous applications nave
been received from stockholders ask
ing the privilege of depositing their
HOlulilSS.
There has seldom been in the ms
tory of the country more successiul
railroad readjustment, and this mas
been accomplished Notwithstanding the
bitter and determined attacks mace
upon the plan and the vigorous effort
made to influence the stockholders or
the Seaboard to withhold their appro-
val and consent.
Messrs. Thomas F. Ryan, Blair IL
q
their associates on the committee must
feel highly gratified and greatly
pleased at the confidence. not only OF
the stockholders of the Seaboard AIR
Line Railway, but of the genera pub
lie. as is evidenced in the remarkable
success of their plan of REIMBURSEMENT
and the evidence thereby given of their
confidence in the ability ana hdellty OF
the present management. as well as
in the future of the SeabOard Air Line
Railway property.

THE RALEIGH AND SOUTHPORT.

Fayetteville, n. c., July ,12.--Presi-
dent John A. Mills of the Raleigh. ana
Southport road, accompanied by his
attorney ID. T. Oates, Esq. appeared
before the board of aldermen last night
in behalf OF the franchise of the above
mentioned road, stating that they haC
been before the Board of Audit ana
Finance and had made the provision
in said franchise they asked for, name
ly keeping the streets worked from
curb 20 curb along such streets as their
road would run over, and now the
franchise was satisfactory to said
Board of Audit and Finance.
The railroad and street committees
of the board made the following rec
concentrations which were adopted by
the aldermen:
That the franchise shall provide
against two crossings on Hay street;
that the grantees shall keep the streets
along it's lines worked from curb to
curb, and that the time for operating
the road after construction is limited
to three years instead of five; that sec
ton be amended to read: THAT for
good cause shown, the franchise may
be extended, at the option of the
board of aldermen another two years.
Alderman Mcneil moved that the
mayor shall appoint committee to
act in conjunction with the Board OF
Audit and Finance to redraft the
franchise in accordance with the
amendment, and it was unanimously
agreed upon.

STARTING WITH FRAUD.

The only authority for the state
ment that business men" are behind
the plan to restore bar room rule in
Raleigh is Ed. V. Denton, well
known saloon man. once president Of
the State Liquor Dealers Association,
who was the brains of the campaign
for the saloons two years ago and
who is leader of the present move
ment.
We do not charge that any of the
men who have been carrying around
the petitions have made false state
ments, but several persons to whom
the petition was presented thought that
if the election was ordered a voter
could vote for either prohibition, dis
rensary or saloons. whereas the peu-
ton limits the votes "for saloons, or
to leave the dispensary as it now is
Some people signed the petition with
that understanding. They should
make haste to remove their names
from the petition.
The'saloon men have also sought to
get up sentiment for the saloons by
saying that the plan is for saloons
to pay high license and close at sun
set. But that is not contained i'm the
petition. The saloon men would fight
as formerly, for saloons till midnight
and try to control enough aldermen to
keep their places open late.
So far it has been impossible to get
the names of the signers. AS soon as
the list can be obtained it will he
printed in these columns so the
board of aldermen may be helped in
rejecting the illegal names. 1t is re-
ported that quite number of per-
sons not qualified TO vote have signed
the petition. Careful scrutiny of al
names will be made by the public
and the board of aldermen, so thai
all illegal names may be stricken from
the petition.
To the Raleigh voters: We do no
need any agitation or election thi:
fall. 1t is better TO let well enough
alone Don't sign the petition.
