atoms, destroyed three stills, several
large fermenters and tubs, saturated
the earth with 100 gallons OF beer
ana arrived at Selma last evening In
time for tea, accompanied by nine
moonshiners-seven white men and
two blacks-and followed closely by
three wagon-loads Of demolished dis
tlllery appartus and fixtures
1t was bold and daring undertak-
ing, but the inventory of what was
captured indicates how successfully II
was accomplished. Upon arriving close
to the scene of operations the officers
divided forces, one party led by Buck"
Adams, and the other by ID. c. Down
ing, going in opposite directions, but
for the purpose Of circumventing the
supposed distillery, and to shut off all
avenues OF escape. The Adams force
found six men operating two distiller-
les, one 175 gallons and the other 40
gallons. Two men made their escape.
but four were captured without resist
ance. While this scene was being en-
acted, the second squad came upon an
other still within three-quarters Of a
mile, and there captured five men, but
this was not done SO easily as in the
first capture. When the officers neared
this latter place they were fired on two
or three times by the mOonshiners, but
the officers returned the fire, rushed in
upon them and took them into custody
Az" ohS " oS Shol5 VI
A mule and a wagon were taken at
the first place, and a horse and buggy
at the second.
SO within less than one mile apart
three stills were cut to pieces, nine
men captured, and the whole operating
plants demolished. AS stated above.
the men were brought here last evening
for preliminary hearing before
United States Commissioner c.. U. Har-
ris, but of their own motion the case
against each of them was continued to
September 10th, at which time they
will be tried at this place.
All of the stills were located on one
which was formerly owned
by the late William Smith. The place
was sold two years ago to w. NJ. Rose,
and among the men captured were
three Of Mr.. Roses sons, who were
helping at one of the stills. Besides
these, two brothers named Tyner were
caught, man named Webb, one named
Wilkins and two negroes.

THE NALL INVESTIGATION.


Some days ago Thos. 81. Nall, of
Chatham, an inmate of the insane
asylum at Raleigh made his escape
from the attendants and ran for over
mile before being captured.
The patient died within a half an
hour after being taken back to the
hospital.
A certificate of death from heart
failure, caused by over exertion, was
made out by the physicians. Since
that time charges have been made that
the attendants handled the patient very
rough and that death was possibly
caused by wounds inflicted by the at
tendants.
The Union Republican commenting
on the affair says:
Attendants of the State Hospital
are alleged to have caused the death
of an insane patient while recaptur-
ing him in his attempt to escape. The
Republican prefers no charges, but
casually remarks that If this act had
been done under Republican admin
istration the News and Observer would
have howled itself hoarse with charges
OF brutality and criminality."
These charges are now under inves-
and for this reason we will
not comment on the subject at this
time But as the Republican says if1
this affair had happened under Fusion
rule the News and Observer would
have howled itself hoarse before now,
but that paper has published nothing
on the affair except to excuse the at
tendants of any blame.

firing Of a national salute Of - guns
was the signal which told the i~ople
Of Portsmouth. kittery and New Gas
tie that the peace Of Portsmouth was
an accomplished fact, and the church

pealing forth u joyful refrain
For forty seven minutes those out

awaited the signal Suddenly an or
DERBY dashed 10 the entrance OF the
peace building and waved his hand to
the gunner a few feet away and the
opening shot Of the salute rang out OH

afternoon prociaiming peace between
Russia and Japan.
Up to the moment OF signing the
treaty no word had broken the silence
Of the conference room. Throwing his
pen aside, Mr.. White, without a word.
reached across the table and grasped
Baron kOmura's hand. His conferees
followed. and the Russian and Japan
csc delegates remained for moment In
silence, their right hands tightly
clasped across the conference table.
The war was over-Russia and Japan
were once more friends.
This simple ceremony rang true. and
deeply impressed the attaches and Sec
retaries Of the two missions, who with
the invited witnesses, had formed d
large circle around the delegates sit
ting at the table.

Down in Atlanta, Georgia, they have
actually reprimanded their MAYOR for
getting drunk in Chicago and saving
unpleasant things about Mayor Dunno
However, they have not put him out of
Office, Notwithstanding there are other
charges against this mayor of an even
more serious nature. The Democratic
press has said nothing about incom-
potency. But, just think what the
Democratic papers would have said had
the mayor Of Atlanta been a Repub-
lican!

There is a fight on in Raleigh as
to who shall deal out the LIQUOR con-
sumed in this city and surrounding
country.
1t is no fight Of ours, but we should
ike to see a square deal. It seems
that one paper and its cohorts in the
city want to ride rough-shod over the
Watts law, simply because it is to
their political interest to do so. But
at other times they say the Watts law
is alright.

PRESIDENT ROCKWELL AND THE
TREATY PENCE.

The peace treaty between Japan and
Russia was signed mt Portsmouth.
New Hampshire, Tuesday evening.
The whole world feels grateful to
President Roosevelt for bringing abolt
this peace conference which was TIE
means Of ending one of the most bloody
wars In history.
The Washington Post commenting
upon the part played by Roosevelt
says:
PERHAPS the most exceptional and
notable fact In the phenomenal career
III President Roosevelt IL that acts of
his that were not contemplated In the
constitutional delineation of the sphere
Of his official duties have been the
greatest contributors to his unexampled
popularity I'm his own country and to
the worldwide fame that he has uobIy
won. Those acts he las performed not
as President, not In the line of official
duties; but the fact Of his being Presi-
dent gave him the opportunities for
their performance Under q full sense
Of the responsibility incurred, he has
employed the prestige Of his great office
10 render service to humanity on two
occasions service that could not
habe been rendered by any other man
on earth or by any combination of
men.
The first of these occasions was the
coal famine resulting from the strike
of the anthracite miners i'm 1902. 1T
was great and grave emergency.
While it was no part Of the Presidents
duties to interfere with it, yet his in
reference seemed to offer the only DOS
sible hope of relief from an affective
calamity. He was careful to have his
position understood by the two con-
tending parties, the coal operators and
their employees, and by the public. He
distinctly disclaimed official authority
for what he did, but his course was as
effective as plenary authority could
have rendered it. And there is not
room for doubt that this courageous
use of the prestige of the Chief Mag
istracy was an important factor in the
voting on the Sth of last November.
1.-The part taken by the President
in the events that have ended the war
in the East has given him a warm
place i'm the hearts of almost countless
millions in many lands, and it has also
added to the prestige of his country.
But great as was this service to all |
and for all time, he might
have avoided it without neglect of any
1uty prescribed by our Constitution.
might have kept out, although it was
evident that in his Intervention lay the
only hope of peace. 1t may truthfully
De said of President ROosevelt's course
N this most mOmentous matter that it
vas dictated by the highest sense of |
1uty and characterized by the most
tact"
