The Episcopal Convention.

Contributed.
of North Carolina met last week in the
Church of the Holy Innocents, Hender-
son. A preliminary service was held on
Tuesday evening, at which an eloquent
sermon upon mission work was preached
by the Rev Robert W. Barnwell, OF
Petersburg, Va. The opening service OF
the convention took place on Wednesday
morning, when Bishop Cheshire cele-
brated the holy communion, and q ser
mon was preached by the Rev. X. b.
Owens, of Rocky Mount, upon the King
dom OF God, as much neglected subject
of modern instruction, though occupying
SO large a place in the teaching OF our
Lord during His earthly ministry.
The convention was organized by the
election OF the Rev. NJ. W. Marshall, D.. D.,
as president, to occupy the chair in the
occasional absence of the Bishop, and the
Rev. Julian r. Ingle as secretary. The
regular committees having been ap-
pointed by the Bishop, the reports OF the
officers and standing committees OF the
Diocese were presented and referred to
these bodies for consideration and fur
ther report. These all indicated good
progress in the affairs OF the Diocese and
were followed by many reports OF special
committees appointed by the last con-
vention.
The reports of the archdeacons of con-
vocations were Of great interest as show

DISPLAYED POOR JUDGMENT.

Former Senator Marion Butler was
the alumni orator at the University
commencement In introducing Mr.
Butler, Mr.. John A. Parker, the toast
master, said, among other things:
''The demand in the South for sue
cessful men is imperative and is for
statesmen instead of scheming poll
ticians.' The young men OF the Uni
versity thought nothing of what Mr..
Parker said when he spoke of "schem-
ing politicians" but had he used
these words at Il political gathering
his hearers would have thought that
he intended them rs Il fling at Mr.
Butler. Mr. John Charles McNeill,
who was at the University to report
the proceedings for the Charlotte
Observer, says Mr.. Buffers speech
was entirely didactic, marvelously
rambling, harmless, sorry effort.
His eulogy of "Uncle Joe" Cannon,
though set in glowing terms, was re-
Express.
The least that can be said is that
those having the matter in charge
displayed poor Judgment in the Sc
lection of a speaker. Why go out
and pick up and dignity such crea-
lures as Marion Butler by inviting
them to speak on an occasion of this
kind? We accord to him the right OF
his political opinions and affiliations
teven if without honest convictions)
but that Rocky Mount speech of But
ler's, if nothing else, should forever
damn him in the estimation of decent
people in North Carolina.

JUDGE SHAW'S DEFEAT.

A lawyer friend takes exception at
what the GOLD LEAF said last week
about the probable defeat of Judge
Shaw-that he was not popular with
the lawyers-they couldn't run his
courts. There are others" who have
been guilty of the same indiscretion
of saying what they think. Writing
last week before the Durham conven-
tion was held the Sanford Express
had this:
A visiting lawyer in Charlotte told
the Observer the other day that the
lawyers did not like Judge Shaw and
that they are behind the fight against
| him. The truth of the matter is, many
of the lawyers dislike Judge Shaw be-
cause he conducts the business of the
courts over which he presides accord
ing to his idea of the way it should
be done and not theirs. In his rul-
ings and decisions he is guided by his
conscience and not by expediency.
Had we more men on the Superior
Court bench like Judge Shaw North
Carolina would be better off. His re-
tirement from the bench would be a
great loss to the State.
The Statesville Landmark, conser-
vative yet outspoken i'll it's opinions,
says the defeat OF Judge Shaw is a
matter for Statewide regret, and
adds:
The foremost Judge on the Superior
Court bench, one who has done more
for the promotion of morality and
respect for law-who has done more
to make the lawless fear and respect
the law and for the security of the
law-abiding-than possibly any other
Judge in the State, is to be turned
| down because another man wants
his Job. From q monetary stand
point Judge Shaw will be q gamer.
He is an able lawyer and can 60 to
the bar and make more money than
his salary on the bench. But the
people of the State will be the losers
when he retires. He may not suit the
politicians or the lawyers, or those
who sympathize with the lawless
element rather than the law-abiding,
but he did suit those who believe
| that laws are made to be enforced
and that the way to suppress crime
is to punish criminals. The criminal
element in North Carolina will feel
that in the defeat of Judge Shaw it
mas been given license for wrong-do-
ing.
This from the Wilmington Messen-
ger:
Mr.. j. Crawford Biggs will make a
good Judge, but we are sorry that it
is such an ornament to the bench as
| Judge Shaw whom he will supplant.
The State has need of the best Judges
it can get on the bench. Judge Shaw
is one oft best judges the State has
or has had in a long time. He was
IL terror to law breakers wherever he
held court. While stern, and a be-
lever in punishing crime, he was not
too severe or in the least cruel. The
State can i'll afford to loose such
men from the bench.

New Mexico is for Single State.

The Phoenix Enterprise says: Hon.
B. A. Packard arrived in Phoenix yes.
terday from Albuquerque, N. NJ.
where he has been in attendance at
the Albuquerque territorial fair for
the past week.
Speaking of the statehood sentiment
in New Mexico, of which Packard
took occasion to observe, he said that
there had been a tremendous change
of sentiment in the adjoining territory
during the past six weeks against the
proposition of joihture, and that he
would not be surprised if New Mexico
returned majority against jointure,
as Arizona proposed to do.
"WhiIe in New Mexico 1 met ex-
Governor Otero," said Packard. "He
WAS in company with Sol Luna, the
repu blican national committeeman
from New Mexico at the time. In the
course of the conversation, Gov. Otero
made the statement that in his opin--
ion New Mexico would declare for
single statehood or none, and added:
Il am debating now whether L shall
take the stump against the proposition
or not"
Speaking of the approaching cleo
Ui on i'll Arizona, Packard stared that
Governor Otero was loud in his praise
of Hon. Marcus A. Smith, Arizona's
delegate to congress, for the work he
did in the last congress against the
passage of the Hamilton bill.
II hope the friends of single state
hood in Arizona will return Mark
Smith to congress, regardless of poll
tics, with tue largest majority on rec
ord. This is no time to think of poll
tics" was the language of the late
governor of New Mexico, said Packard.
There is possibility that Sol Lu-
ma, one of the most influential repub-
licans in New Mexico will soon be in
the fight against Joint statehood along
with Governor Otero, and there is
every indication in that territory at
the present time that both Arizona
and New Mexico will turn down the

MexlcO's Political Stability.

Bismark was right when he said
that "The person who names the day
for an attack is not dangerous" Mex
ico's mischief makers, abroad and at
home were loud in proclaiming that
September l6 would see the beginning
of rebellion which would subvert the
Diaz government and drive out all the
foreigners, particularly the Americans.
September l6 Is Mexlco's Fourth of
July. The disturbers, therefore,
thought there was dramatic fitness in
selecting the anniversary of an old
time rising against Spain to start a
rising against a government which
they occuse, though, of course, unjust
ly, of more cruelties than Ferdinand
Wis representatives ever perpetrated.
Independence day anniversary of
1906 was one of the quietest days
that Mexico has recently seen. There
were the customary Publications over
the separation from Spain but there
was not whisper of revolt anywhere
in Mexico against Diaz's government
so far as the general public in that
country heard. The rebellion which
was booked to take place refused to
materislize. There was enthusiasm in
the celebration in the big towns of the
Republic, but no hand was raised
against the government anywhere.
President Diaz, on opening his con-
gress on that day, sent a message
which not only showed the uIainten-
ance of friendly relations between his
country and all the rest of the nations,
but also showed that bis country was
having a prosperity seldom equalled
in the past. On her political and
financial solidity the world and
specially the United States, offers its
warmest congratulations to the Mex
lean Republic.-San Luis Globe Demo
