ANOTHER PLUNGE TOWARD IRE.
SPECTABILITY."

All North Carolina news in the Re-
publican camp comes via Washington
The Southern Radicals pay no atten-
ton to any local political news I'M
less it is sent out from Washington.
If North Carolina Republican
should determine TO run for Sanitary
Inspector of Hanging Dog, he would
feel that he ought to have the an
nouncement made from Washington
city. So great is the federalistic ten
dency of the North Carolina Republi
cans that if they had their way they
would abolish State and county lines
and let all officers be appointed at
Washington.
The latest from Washington is that
Spencer Blackburn has obtained sub
scriptions amounting to twenty thou
sand dollars for the purpose of estab-
fishing a Republican daily newspaper
at Greensboro. 1t is also "given out"
at Washington that ''the most of the
subscribers are cotton mill men and
that several of them have never iden-
tilted themselves with the Republican
organization" That sort of statement
is supposed to give strength to the
new enterprise. 1t will fool nobody
Not a dollar to any such fund has
been given by any cotton mill man
except Republican cotton mill men.
and they are rather scarce in North
Carolina, as diligently as the Republic
can and assistant Republican sympa-
thizers have sought to seduce them
from the true political faith.
Who would be influenced by "cot-
ton mill man" who is ashamed to adj
NIT that Me puts up money to back
the discredited old hulk of revenue
officers and distillers who control the
Republican party in North Carolina?
There are some cotton mill men IN
North Carolina who are Republicans,
but they are few in number, and as
the high tariff walls deprive them of
needed foreign markets they are
growing beautifully less.
Will the new attempt to make "a
IcSp0CldDlc party III ANOiIiA Oe'A
by means of newspaper turn out to
be as great a failure as the attempt
to give it Responsibility" by the
Yerkes & Co. "banket?" Or will his
tory repeat itself? Years and years
ago, when the late Major VIM. A.
Smith was the leader of the Repub-
lican party in the Raleigh district. he
came into possession of the Radical
daily at Raleigh and essayed to run
it in the interest of the party. Sud
denly he shut up the paper and sold
the material to job printers. Some
time after, when asked by friend
why he quit the publication of the
paper, Major Smith said with en-
phasis 40, you can't print paper
for a party that can't read"
Blackburn might print two editions
one in English for those who can
read and one as a pictorial for those
who cannot read if he wishes it to
avoid the fate of Major Smiths VEN

TO SUCCEED MAJ. ROBBINS.
The Position of Gettysburg Commits
sioner PAYS About $1,000 a Year.

The late Maj. William M. Robbins
held a position as member of the
Gettysburg Commission, to which he
was appointed by President Cleveland
in 1894. The position is one of honor
and pays ten dollars a day and eX
penses, and the annual compensation
is said to be about $4,000 The sue
cessor of Major Robbins will be
named by President Roosevelt. A
Confederate soldier will undoubtedly
be appointed. Senators Simmons and
Overman will urge the appointment
of a North Carolinian to succeed the
dead North Carolinian. They have
not yet agreed upon the candidate
they will recommend. Among those
whose names have been suggested by
friends are Messrs. w. p. Roberts, H.
A. London, A. c. Avery and Charles
M. Stedman and probably other men
who bore a conspicuous part in the
Southern army.

in the public prints in criticism of
railroads. They are at their mercy
and fear their business would be in
jured But if Mr.. Cone thinks large
shippers in Greensboro are satisfied
with present conditions he will be
undeceived if he will talk 70 large
shippers in the city of Greensboro.
They earnestly desire to alter pres
ent conditions" as do the bulk of the
shippers in North Carolina.
But why did Mr.. Cone flop?
The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1905-05-11
WHY DID MIR. CONE FLOP?

The Elkins hearing has resulted as
it was intended-in getting all the
railroad objections to a law making
rates before the country. There mas
never been a time when any bill that
would hold water could pass the mo-
nopoly-ridden Senate. most of whose
members ride on free passes, many OF
them being railroad attorneys or
railroad owners. In order to fortify
the Senators in their position, the
testimony of railroad experts has been
taken and spread broadcast.
After having introduced expert rail
road testimony, the railroads are now
irving to put on some testimony from
shippers, but are getting very little
except from shippers who are believed
to be getting rebates or their equiva-
lent
The most surprising testimony is
that given by Mr.. Caesar Cone, a
big cotton mill manufacturer at
Greensboro. He stated that his firm
represented the output of twenty
seven cotton mills with shipments ag-
gregating 5O.00O,Oo0 pounds a year,
and is thus quoted:
HE said that he and all of the
cotton manufacturers and commission
merchants in the Carolinas feared any
tampering with the present railroad
rate laws and would oppose any leglS-
lation designed to alter present cohdl-
lions. He said that disaster would
oil
progress of the cotton spinning INDUS
try i'm the South, which had increased
in the last decade from 100000 bales
of cotton annually to more than D.
0OO. 600 bales of cotton annually Would
be seriously affected by any change.
1t is only a few years ago that The
News and Observer printed a vigorous
article from the pen of Mr.. Cone-or
was it his brother who is his partner!
-arraigning the railroads for the
high freight rates charged and the
discrimination against North Carolina
mills. What has come over the spirit
of Mr.. Cones dreams? Why has he
Topped? When did he become con-
vinced that "all of the cotton manu-
facturers and commission merchants
in the CaroIinas'' were so well satisfied
with present conditions" and We're
opposed to. "any tampering with the
present railroad rate law" And e1-
actly at what hour were the scales
removed from the eyes of Mr.. Cone
And what argument convinced him
that his former elaborate article was
wrong? Have the railroads reduced
rates since then? Have they given
Greensboro mills and others con-
trolled by the Cones better rates than
then? Instead of decreasing rates
since Mr. Cones complaint was made
some years ago, the interstate freight
rates to the general public have been
increased-either directly or by an ar
bitrary change of classification. We
know this is true of printing paper,
whether true of cotton mill supplies,
we have not now the information be-
fore us.
Large shippers hesitate to come out

AMONG THE RAILROADS.

The awakening of the mountain re-
gion is being brought about by the
building of the Tallulah Falls Rail-
way from Cornelig- on the main line
of the Southern, through to Franklin,
N. G. For some years this line has
operated from Cornelia to Tallulah
Falls, 81 miles distant. This road
made access to Tallulah Falls easy
and thousands of tourists have visited
the beautiful spot and chanted it's
praises. But the glories of the further
mountains were to be seen only after
tiresome trips afoo.> and few braved
the perils of the trail. The Tallulah
Falls Railway has been extended IS
miles through the mountains to Clay
ton, and this extension is now in OPP
eration.-Atlanta Constitution.

RAPID TRANSIT SPEED.

The Rapid Transit speed permit pro-
position was submitted to Governor
Carter twice last night, but was not
signed, owing to the governor not hav-
ing the time necessary to examine the
proposition. The matter was gone into
by superintendent Holloway, who
promptly signed the permission that
would allow cars to make their old
speed, as provided by the new act just
passed. The governor did not express
himself as opposed to it, but was not
ready to act owing to his having been
busy signing or vetoing bills all day.

nature tomorrow, in which case the
street car system will be restored to it's

from him. A statement was presented
and he paid it. 1t was discovered at
forwards however that the statement
did not contain the personal taxes due
for the year 1903 and hence these were
not paid, because he had no means of
knowing that they were Unpaid. 1t is
