Spirit of the Press
No Affront to Virginians.
Messenger.


Wilmington Messenger.
We do not see that our State raises
any invidious comparisons in placing
those words upon the Appomattox
monument. Our State has been grant
ed the right to put up on that spot
monument concentrating the
deeds of her soldiers. We do not
see that simply because it is upon
Virginia soil the people of that State
have any more right to object than do
those of the other States of the Con-
federacy which had troops in the bat
ties mentioned. The Virginians
would have as much right to OBJ
ject to a similar inscription being put
on a Confederate monument in the
capitol grounds at Raleigh. If the
legend is untrue it would be as wrong
to carve it on a monument in the lat
ter place as at Appomattox. Virgin
ians could make a protest against
placing the words on the monument
on the ground only that they do not
believe those words state correct his
tory. This objection would apply to
the action of the State no matter
where the memorial was placed The
locality of the monument has nothing
to do with the question. The placing
of this one at Appomattox is no more
an affront to the Virginia veterans
than if ii was placed upon either one
of the other battlefields mentioned. In
placing these words on the monument
North Carolina does not intend to
make comparison between the valor
Of her troops and those of any other
state, nor does she do so. She simply
makes record Of a fact showing that
she had brave and gallant solditrs
in those battles.
The Appomattox camp of Confed-
crate veterans in adopting resolution
not to attend the unwilling ceremonies
does itself more harm than it does
the North Carolina veterans.

it was always understood related en-
tirely to Peabody street. The Chatham
county suit was about Peabody street
and this suit had been understood to
be about Peabody street and it was
understood by all of the citizens of
Durham that it related only TO Pea
body street and the first news that the
people had that the Southern claimed
to have a Judgment affecting Petit
grew street was when the hearing was
had before Judge PEBBLES on the oath
of March this year. A copy of the
opinion and first judgment of Judge
Purnell was delivered to the at
torneys of the city of Dur
ham resident in the city but
no copy CT the second decree was ever
served on the aldermen until the 29th
of March after the contempt proceed
in the Chatham county case and in
the case before Judge Purnell and his
two judgments and the judgment of
the Circuit Court of Appeals were all
submitted to Judge PEBBLES and he
held that the suit related only to Pea
body street and did not estop the city
from claiming Pettigrew street. And
in the forum of justice and equity,
Judge PEBBLES must be sustained.
The whole litigation was about Pea
from first to last of Pettigrew street.
Judge Purneu in his opinion does not
intimate that anything was before the
court except Peabody street. And yet
afterwards he signed a decree giving
to the Southern Railway Pettigrew
street which was not i'm litigation.
Evidently the decree was prepared by
Southern Railway attorneys and
friends of Judge Purnell have adj
vanced the idea that he signed it by
'inadvertence. Certainly he ought
not to have signed q decree that gave
property not mentioned in the long
drawn out litigation, and if he did
sign such a decree it ought not to
hold in any tribunals that are gov
erned by correct legal principles. 1t
would be just as proper for judge,
in an action for an acre of land to
decree that the plaintiff was entitled
to recover damages for assault and
battery.
Unless there is further contin-
uance, the contempt case will be
heard before Judge Pr1tchard at Ashe-
vile next Tuesday. While always
ready to do what is right, the Off
Gals here will stand by their rights
and fight it out on that line il it
takes all Summer" if the Southern
refuses to do the fair thing by the
city as it has persistentIy and often
sivcly declined to do for twenty years.

A Queer Death For a Steer.

A fine beef steer belonging to Mr..

potato Sunday morning. A piece of
sponge was fastened to the end of a
buggy whip and this was used in an
effort to force the obstruction down
the steers throat into his stomach

the whip broke off in the animals

be removed and the steer was killed.

There is much misunderstanding of
the Southern Railway and Durham.
Perhaps the following history will
make the story clear to every reader:
In 1889 the town of Durham
brought suit against the North Car
DINA Railroad and the Richmond and
Danville claiming that it was the own
or of strip of land lying on the north
side of the North Carolina Railroads
roadbed in the town of Durham,
known as Peabody street, 50 feet
wide and asking that the defendants
be enjoined from using, obstructing or
occupying said Peabody street. This
case was afterwards moved to Chat
ham county and in 1891 the jury
found that the Richmond and Dam
vile had dedicated this strip of land
to the public for the purpose of a
street and it was enjoined from inter-
fering with it's use From this judg-
ment there was an appeal to the Su-
preme court and the Judgment was
affirmed by the Supreme Court OF
North Carolina at September term,
1893.
In August, 1895, the Southern Rail-
way succeeded to the lease of the
Richmond and Danville for the North
Carolina Railroad This ended that
suit. During the tendency of this
suit the town gave permission to the
