THEY FEAR TO
RlLE THE STATE

Over the Rate War
ON IN THE OLD NORTH STATE
Anxious to Avoid Bringing on an Is
sue as to State Right to Regulate
Railroads and Powers of Eeder-
al Courts TO Interfere in
State Regulation.
ON IN THE OLD NORTH STATE

WASHINGTON, d. c.. July 23.-Tht
anxiety of the Department of Justice
is so great over the conflict between
the Federal and State Courts in NORTH
Carolina regarding enforcement o.
the State Railroad Rate law that it is
said confidential agent of the De-
partment has been sent to that State
to watch developments. There are in
timations that this agent is charged
with message to Federal Judge Prit-
chard, pointing out to him the need
of the greatest circumspection in
dealing with the situation that has
arisen in order to avoid precipitating
dangerous crisis in the relations of
the State and Federal authorities
Department of Justice officials real
ize that if care is not exercised COM
plications of the most embarrassing
nature to the Federal authorities
might easily be brought about as a
result of the conflict between the
State and Federal jurisdiction and
although they are desirious to
see that the railroads are given a
square deal. But in doing this they
are anxious that every precaution be
taken to avoid arousing local feeling
and bringing on sharp issue on the
Sfata's riohfc nuactiOn
1t is believed here that some at least
of the State officials would like to pre-
cipitate just such an issue for politi-
cal purposes. This makes the FEEDER
al officials all the more anxious that
nothing shall be done by the Federal
Courts to arouse unnecessary feel
ing.
Fear Effects on Political Situation.
Judge Pritchard is himself a good
deal of a fighter. He comes from the
mountain district of Western North
Carolina, and had rather rough
and-tumblc career in politics before
he went on the bench. If he got his
fighting blood up he would not hesi-
tate to resort to drastic measures to
vindicate the authority of his Court
as against the State Courts. But it
is hoped here he will realize the nee
essity of handling the situation with
diplomatic tact so as to avoid the
necessity of direct interference from
Washington.
If situation should arise requiring
the use of Federal marshals to en-
force the orders of the Federal Courts.
the results might be embarrassing in
the highest degree to theAdministra-
tion. The affair would at once take
on a political aspect and the ques-
ton of States rights would at once
become burning one, not only in
North Carolina, but throughout the
South and even in other sections of
the country.

Bill Passes the Administration to Back Up Judge
PritChard Against State of North Carolina.

ATLANTA, GA, July 23.-(Special.)
A great attempt at filibustering is
expected by all tomorrow when the
prohibition bill comes up on its third
reading and passage in the House.
The rules of the House favor at
tempts of this character to delay and
prevent legislation and considerable
time is expected to be exhausted by
those opposed to the proposed legisla-
tion in efforts to secure amendments
in favor of the physicians and drug
gists, the only lines on which there
is. any reasonable hope of final sue
cess. 1t is regarded as not impro-
bable that there may be number of
those in favor of State prohibition who
will give support to some ameliora-
ton of the present measure in favor
of the medical fraternity. The oppo-
sition to the bill is holding a secret
session, at which it's plans of action
will probably be outlined. 1t is the
current impression that the House will
be in session at least until midnight
Wednesday, and there are more ar
dent prohis who talk of an all night
session rather than adjournment be-
fore their bill is finally passed. Some
animated debates are expected and a
great crowd of spectators is expected
throughout the session no matter how
prolonged it may be. But the final
result can hardly be otherwise than
an absolutely dry State so far as a
bill of this character can make it,
The prohis, as a rule, are getting
sitter backed with each days pro-
gress.
Anti-Pass Bill Goes Through.
In the Senate today Felders anti
pass bill was passed. This now goes
to the House where. the main fight
will come on between the forces
of Joe Hill Hall and those who favor
more drastic legislation than that
veteran of the legislature believes nec-
essary. 1t is regarded as foregone
conclusion that Hall, despite the bat
tie royal he may put up, will be de-
feated and that Gov. Smiths views
will prevail and passes of every sort
and to every kind of citizens become
la thing of the past forever.

SCHOOL TRUSTEES
TO BE CHOSEN.
Election in Sumter Next
Month.
EACH DISTRICT CHOOSES THREE
Owing to the Financial Conditions it
viii be Found Necessary to Gut
Down the School Term of the
County Schools a MOnth.-COl-
Ored Summer Schools Close
in Time for Cotton
Picking.
EACH DISTRICT CHOOSES THREE

An election for school trustees is
to be held on Wednesday August 21,
under the order adopted by the Board
of Education of Sumter county, legal
notice of the election being given in
this weeks Times-Recorder.
There are three trustees to be cleo
ted for each school district. The cleo
tions are to be held at the school
houses of the various districts of the
county except in districts of the coun-
ty having regular voting precincts.
The election will be held under the
rules governing the election of MEM
bers of the General Assembly.
All of the negro schools of the coun-
ty are now in operation. Commits
sioner Moore, who was in the city
yesterday, stated that they would close
about September /, after two months
tuition of the children. The colored
schools are being largely attended this
summer. They shut down in ample
time for the children to help on the
work of cotton picking.
Owing to finances it has been found
necessary to reduce the school term
for both whites and blacks one month
this year. This is greatly to be re-
gretted, but the school term has had
to be arranged. to suit the finances al
the disposal of the Board.
Two white schools have been open
ed this summer, one at Pleasant
Grove, the other at Pennington. The
people Of these districts wanted sum
mer schools and the Board gave then
to them. 1t is probably from remarks
that have been made, though, tha
there will not be the same desire To-
these white summer schools anothe
year.

The Meat We Eat.

The per capita consumption Of meat
In the United States is estimated at
179 pounds. The Australians alone
surpass us as meat eaters, and the
average In their country Is abnor-
mally high because OF the large num-
Der of animals as compared with the
sparse population, meat In consequence
being abundant and cheap. Following
the United States are Argentina, Great
Britain, Germany and France, ranging
from 40 to 81 pounds, and Italy
brings up the rear of the procession
with 81 pounds. In Germany there are
slaughtered for food each year under
official inspection numbers of horses
and dogs in addition to the usual food
animals. In Paris there were slaugh-
tered for food during ten years an
annual average of more than 10000
horses, mules and asses.

Nnu The Nem Girl.

The new girl has quite eclipsed the
new woman. She Is almost as real as
nature herself, and she leaves not the
slightest doubt that she Intends to be
permanent. The new girl is taking
command of almost everything and ev-
erybody. 1t Is some years since she
subjugated her parents, and, having
taken that decisive step, there are
really no obstacles In her path. In
days past women used to gain in force
of will as they advanced in years, and
their life was an exquisite crescendo.
The new girl, on the other hand, has
begun life fortlsslmo, both fists on the
piano, and so she must beat II out, or
be yanqulshed In the attempt.
