The Story irl Detail.

The case OF OSBORN against IIcdtll
and the News and Observer. which has
occupied the attention Of Guilford Su-
perior court since last Tuesday, was
given to the jury at fifteen minutes
after II o'clock today.
Judge Ward has won universal com
incubation by his bearing throughout
the entire trial. Involving as it did
far reaching results to the parties liti-
giant, and being strongly contested by
strong and earnest attorneys, he has
kept such kind but firm hand on the
case, no time has been wasted in
strife or legal hair splitting. nor has a
solitary unseemly incident married the
entire proceedings.
Upon the opening Of court Col.
r. NJ. ATgo, OF Raltigh began the
closing argument in the case and for
the plaintiff. He spoke an hour and
forty minutes. A synopsis follows:
The effort of the defense has been
to confuse and mystify this case.
Josephus Daniels is not the defendant
in the case lie is here as a rCpreScn-
tative of stock in Raleigh Corpora
tion, known as the News and Observer
Publishing Company.
He only is the legal aggregation of
many corporate interests. So that
JoSephus Daniels is not on trial here.
If he were The issue ! would say
something nice about him myself, cN-
cept that Barringer and Brooks We're
so free and so eloquent with their
culOgies of him, l. could not dare hope
to equal their power of praise. An
effort has been made TO convince you
that the Supreme Court confines the
amount of damages in this case to a
penny and the costs.

ARkANsAS IND INSTANCE.

From now on business conditions in Arkansas will be studied with more than usual interest. The State, with the King bill, has vir- tuaIly driven insurance companies from its borders. It has gone a sep further and declared that the insurance companies shaIl not en- ter the State even for the purpose of testing the legality of the law that compels them to withdraw, fixing such heavy penalties for in. fraction of the statute that no com pany seems willing to take the risk of remaining in Arkansas un- tjl the test suit might be decided.
 Thus Arkansas has drawn the line that precipitates the cleanest cut battle= between a State and in sarance that has ever been known. Il has caused the companies to re sort to the last and most rigorous of their fighting measures, which k absolute withdrawal.
 Arkansas, in recent years, has been prosPering wonderfully Throughout its cotton lands, its fruit orchards and is mining fields has flowed q tidal wave of develop ing prosperity. Crossroads have become towns and villages have taken out charters as cities. Rarl- roads have thrown out many feed .ing lines. and vast projects are in hand for the future. l. is pity that this desirable and thriving condition of affairs should have been deliberately disturbed by the Governor and Legislature.
 The men, however, who advo- cated the King bill gre by no means fanatics. They are not blind, incorporate haters of all things bearing the appearance of trusts, though they, like many oth CTS. look upon them.as evil. The bill aimed al trusts makes no ex- of insurance, but takes pains to include it, though many wise men of the State hold that the bills supporters are in error in this particular, However, these men undoubtedly believe they are acting for the good of the State

THE SEATING OF PEABODY.

The partisan committee of the Colorado legisIature-it was com posed of eighteen Republicans and nine Democrats-by throwing out the vote of I52 Democratic pre- cincts, figured up majority for James Il. Peabody, the Republican candidate for Governor. who was defeated by Ava Adams, Demo- cfat.
 But the report of this committee could not be adopted, Governor Adams could not be busted and ex- Governor Peabody seated unless some way could be found to bring in line q large number of Republi- can legislators who would refuse to vote for Peabody. Therefore a deal was made by which Adams was to be busted and Peabody seat. ed, but after being Governor for one day, after having been "yindi- cated, Peabody was to resign the office and thus allow Lieutenant Governor James F. Mcdonald to become Governor.
 
 'At the conference at which the bargain was made, say the Den yer dispatches, "pledges were giv- en to the independent Republicans by the heads Of four large. corpora tions who have been active sup. porters of Peabody that he would resign after being seated and per init the Lieutenant Governor to take the office of Governor.
 So the deal was made on the part of Peabody by the heads of four large corporations.
 But of course the heads of these four large corporations are in poli tics from purely patriotic motives. Gazette.

 Mayor White and :. C Alex auder, president of the board of trade, have called a mass meet ing for Tuesday night in the court house for the purpose of placing this proposition square ly before the business men of Pine Bluff and raising the eity's share of the money to build the road
 Star City has subscribed her quota and will have the com pleted list ready for collection by March 25.
 From Leslie, the terminus of the St Louis and North Arkan- sas road, to Searcy is a distance of fifty miles, and this route is said to have been surveyed for the extention of the North Ar kansas into Searcv, and by the time the southern portion of the road Is completed this proposed road will also be completed. The Searcy and Des Arc road makes connection at Higginson with the Iron Mountain, which will give the new road an out let and connection over this line.
 'From Searcy it is proposed to build the Pine Bluff and South ern through Lonoke into Pine Bluff and at the same time ex- tend the Road on from Star City into Monticello and Hamburg. The people all along the route are willing to put up the money with which to build the road, and 1t but remains to complete the survey and go to work. This would give Arkansas a road sev- eral hundred miles long, built en- tirely by home capital and con meeting the mining lands and or chard lands of the North with the fertile cotton lands of the South.
