was lecturing at Spokane on i'm
proved highways, he said, acoor-
ding to the Spokane Review
''There are some excuses made
for not having roads. While en-
gagged in the construction of the
roads in Il certain community I
heard one day, while we were
sitting under the shade OF some
trees and talking with The msn
who were working on these
roads, one man cay he didn't
believe in that 'hard road propo.
'sition anyhow" And knew he
was earning $3S a week in The
construction OF this road, that
he was a poor man and had
small farm and was earning
more than he could in any other
way, and said 10 him:
Smith, what is the matter?
Why are you against this propo-
sition? ?"
He said, 'Mr. Lancaster, |

some wood on that farm and
during the winter months, when
l can't do anything else l haul
the wood TO town. Now, you
build these roads and anybody
can get to town at any time of
the year, and everybody will be
hauling wood, and my wood
won't be worth so much"
81 didn't pursue the argument
there, | simply left. And the
next winter, when the roads
were real bad, l went out with
my camera to get some photo
graphs to illustrate something |

and load of wood coming into
town. He had on that wagon a

Plan Might Work Farther South.

Washington, May 5.-The in.
terstate commerce comm isslon
has rendered its first opinion in a
case Ill volving the reasonablenese
of an express rate, The case was
brought by the Society of Ameri-
can Florists, who claimed that the
rate charged by the United States
Express Company on cut flowers
from New Jersey points to New
York city was unreasonable, ex-
cessive and unjust. In July 1906,
the rate was increased from so
cents to $1.O0 per hundred pounds
The commission rules that the
rate should be reduced to 60 cents
per hundred pounds and holds
that the express company cannot
Justify its increase in rate by the
mere production of It's contracts
with it's own agents and the rail-
road companies.

Young Girl Found Drunk.

A young white girl 10 years of
age, who says she is an orphan
from Sampson county, IS now in
Cumberland county Jail, and what
to do with her is a problem Sher-
if Watson and Deputy Sheriff
Pate are trying to solve. She is
certainly an object for charitable
attention, and we would suggest
that some of our numerous chari-
table organizations take her in
hand. Yesterday Sheriff Watson
learned that a young white wo-
man was misbehaving herself on
the Wilmington road and sent
Deputy Sheriff Pate to investi-
gate. He found a young girl with
but a few stitches of clothes OH
her back, fast asleep IN a corner
of a field, having plainly fallen
there in a drunken stupor. She
would not be at all unprepossing
in looks if she were given a bath
and some clean clothing, which
the sheriff says will be done this
afternoon. The girl has evident
ly abandoned herself to every in.
decency of life, and now while she
is young is the time to try to re-
form her.-Fayetteville Observer.

Former Dean HuffCut Suicides,

New York, May 4.-Ernest
Huffcut, former dean of Cornell
University law school, one of the
leading authorities on constitu-
tional law in the. United States
and personal counsel of Governor
Hughes, ended his life today by
shooting. The upper deck of the
Hudson river steamer G. W. Morse
was chosen by Mr.. Huffcut as the
scene of the commission of his
tragic act. Some time early this
morning while the steamer was
coming down the river from AL
bany to this city and while the
steamer was swept by the heavy
rain storm which prevailed for
hours, the lawyer seated himself
in a deck chair and sent a bullet
into his brain. His body was
hours later by a deck hand
when the steamer had almost
reached her dock. His identity
was not known at that time and
it was not until Governor Hughes,
who CHANGED to be in the city,
had visited the undertaking rooms
where his body lay that the iden-
LITIGATION was made positive. The
was deeply affected by
the death of his friend and coun-
and said he was utterly at
loss to account for his act. Mr..
Huffcut left a letter for his sister,
Miss Lillian Hutfcut, of this city,
but it contained not even a hint
of his reason for taxing his life.
In the letter the lawyer SAID that
only his consideration for the
feeling of others had restrained
him from acting before.

President Roosevelt and Senator 0verman.

Every one knows that Mr..
Roosevelt can exercise no infu-
ence with the Democrats in the
selection of their leader; nor
would the fact that he was anx-
ious that they should choose Mr..
Overman for that place influence
the latter at all in his future con-
duct were he SO honored. The
President recognizes in Mr.. Over
man a well-equipped Senator, a
heightened man, and a broad
minded member of the party in
opposition-one who will be ready
to assist the administration in
any measures instituted which
will be for the good of the country
at large and will not oppose any
and every proposed action of the
administration, however merito-
rious, just because it is of Repub-
lican origin.
We do not suppose there is any
likelihood of any Senator in his

therefore, it is almost out of the
