GOV. GLENN IS IN new YORK
TO CONSULT WITH ATTORNEYS
IN SOUTHERN SUIT.
Has No Patience With Present Cry
That Legislation in South Will
Retard Development.

NEW YORK, August 19.-Gov Glenn Of
North Carolina. whose recent fight for
what he deemed was the states right at
tracted wide attention. Is in New York to
consult with the attorneys who are in
charge of the states case at the hearing
of the Southern railways injunction suit.
The governor talked freely Of the situa-
ton in his state as brought about by legisla-
tion to regulate the railroads.
Il have no patience" he said, with this
cry that the legislation in our state and
elsewhere in the south along these lines is
going to retard the development of the
south by frightening capital hurting the
railroads, and, in effect, killing the goose
that lays the golden egg l am an indus
trial governor. l have always made 1t
point to protect capital and protect the
railroads from anything that was unfair.
But when the railroads try to run us then
1t is time to call halt.
Once Matter Was Serious.
There was only once that this matter be-
came serious. Had Judge Pritehard tried
to get our prisoner away from US and ad-
judged Judge Long in contempt. I GER
tainly would have backed up Judge Long
with every soldier and every deputy sheriff
in North Carolina OF course, If President
Roosevelt sent troops into our state then
we would have had to throw up our hands,
as one state could not fight the Union, but
we should have appealed to the voters OF
the country, and think they would have
been with US.
There Is only one way OF dealing with
these railroads The point should be, Is
railroad making money and how much Is
it making? If 1t Is making over a rea-
sonable profit then 1t should submit to a
reduction In rates. The North Carolina
law permits the road to make 10 per cent.
l think that this Ia a pretty good profit.

summer months. / don't believe you
can fad in the whole State more
healthy, or more beautiful city in
which to live. nor one which combines
so many of the good features of an in
land summer resort. If one is looking
for salt air. we haven't that, but we
have Il good bracing air that has in it
tho ozone of the woods and the
meadows. If one is looking for fresh
water we not only have the grand old
kennebcc flowing through the heart of
the city. but very few miles away we
have opened up to us ponds without
number.
when one stops to think of it, con-
tinucd the citizen, "Watervillc is just
about as ideal Il place in which to
spend the summer months as one
could we'll imagine. There is enough
going on all the time to give variety
to life. \ dime will take us out
through the country by trolley, or a
good stable team will take us into a
countryside that has no superior in
points of beauty. Salt air is good, and
the mountain scenery, but am pretty
well contented with Waterville as a
summer resort for me-"
The above will doubtless soOthe the
feelings of those who have not been
fortunate enough to get Il vacation out
of the city But in it there is much
truth.
