One Honorable Execution.

During the Investigation of the Penn
sylvunia Railroad by the Interstate Com
merce Commission sitting In Philadelphia
1t developed that high officials owned
stock in the coal companies along the
line OF the road. 1t Is gratifying to state
however, that there was at least one
honorable exception Mr.. A. w. Gibbs
general superintendent Of motive power
at Altoonn, declared that he owned no
stocla aud was In no way Interested In
any coal companies.
Mr.. Gibbs is we'll known In Richmond,
and his friends here were not at all
surprised at tho testimony he gave, for
they lslow him to tie hgh-minded man
with d gentleman's delicate sense ana
appreciation Of the proprieties. Mr.. Gibbs
did not state, but 1t Is fair to presume
that he also was offered stock IN tho
ccal companies. and 1t would have neen
Ia his pecuniary advantage to receive IT.,
Tut he was unwilling to put himself into
eny such doubtful position. Ills honest
and refined instincts restrained him. In
r,,-suing sucl a. course, he has saved tho
reputation and good name: he has lived
ur to the high opinion that his friends
have Of him. he has set nobdo example

Point; L. M. Koonce, Jacksonville, us
members Of the board Of visitors Of North
Carolina College of Agriculture and Mo
chanic Arts, Raleigh. The commissions
are each for u SIX ycur term.
The body Of Bertha Fowler, q nfteen-
ycar-old white girl. was found on the
tracks Of tho Southern freight yards here
this morning about go o'clock horribly
mangled. her limbs and body to the
shoulders being crushed and ground IN
most revolving manner. Already tho
father Of tho child. VIII Fowler, has filed
an affidavit with Justice OF the peace
that in his opinion the girl came to her
death through criminal negligence of
railroad employees. Arrangements arc
being made for an inquest by the coroner.
No one saw tho accident.
There Is a passenger train from Green's
boro due here ut $780, and tho theory
Of the girls father. who has retained
counsel, is that his daughter was cross
ing the tracks and passed around some
freight cars alongside the main line,
which sho crossed Just in front Of the
east-bound passenger train from Green's
boro. The engineer Of shifter near by
says he saw the train slow up for some
one to pass in front. Then she went
over on an adjacent sldetrnck on which
a shifting engine was pushing cars IN
the same direction that the passenger
train was coming. This shlfter went TO
the end of his siding and back before
the body Of the girl was found on his
siding. Engineer Fowler (who is no rela-
ton to the glrD, was In charge of THIS
engine. and 1t Is he who makes tho
statement that he saw the passenger
train slow down for some one to pass.
This crew went on through to Colds
boro, and no statement has been procured
from them.
The charge Is made by counsel for
the child's father that there was crimi-
nal negligence in that there was no one
on the front cars Of the shifter to look
out, and that the girl, being ratified from
her rush across the track In front OF the
passenger train did not see the approach
Of the snifter. which gave no warning

wages they We're willing to pay, and
SO on.
The Petersburg lndex-Appeal says that
Mr.. Koiner should have obtained this
Information before he started on his
trip TO Europe, and should have carried
it with him as a means of giving the
proposed immigrants some Idea of tho
conditions here. 1t is fair to Mr.. Koiner
10 say that he informed himself as well
as possible on all these points In gem

applIcatons, and understands the need
of Virginia farmers. Our suggestion was
meant for individual applicants, II n

the spirit to do likewise, It does seem
that we might keep clean and seeinly the

notices posted on the walls Of ts front

SCOT and rain from artediluvinn stove

proach to this city and county. Here
is no new fact. You read this protest;
see the cause Of It day by day. The
new fact Is that this paper, for one, does
not propose to let up on this matter
until those who have the authority re-
move tho cause Of this repronch to us

"Smyth county and others have erected

ton. Sentiment Is tho spirit and moving

sentiment is spreading, and In time It

than a medicine-inore than

for this reason that SCOTS

Rebellion and Secession.

In his address on the occasion or con-
federate Memorial Day In Danville sena-
tor Daniel said that he had no objec-
ton to being called rebel, but llko
George washington, rather cherished the
name.
In commenting on Senator Daniels re-
marks, the Lynchburg News says that
the word rebel per SO does not neces-
sarily carry odious or discreditable Sic
niacance, but nevertheless, to preserve
the historical accuracy of things, 1t Is
always we'll to bear in mind that the
attitude Of the South during the war was
not related in essential nature to an
act Of rebellion as that word Is COM
monty used and accepted.
The point Is well taken. Rebellion, as
applied by the Northern people TO Sc
cession, Is specifically and designedly
term In denial of the great principle
for which the Southern Confederacy
fought If secession was rebellion, the
claim Of the South. that each and every
sovereign State had the constitutional
right to withdraw from the Union, falls
to the ground
