Important Precedent.

An important precedent IN legal u-ac-
tiee was established here to-day. when
Judge Waddil. iu the United states Dis
trict Court. decided the case OF Cogian
AGAINST The steamer Pocouoke in favor
OF the plaintIn.
Coglan was chief engineer aboard the
steamer, employed by the moath. on
the 18th OF the month the owners Of the
vessel endeavored 90 reduce his rank to
that OF q second engineer at less wages.
Coglan refused the lower position ana
likewise the salary. and demanded nav
for n full month as chief engineer. This
being refused. he brought suit 20 re-
cover.
This Is the first case OF this nature
that ever has been decided in the United
States District Court here. and IT Is
construed to mean hat a steamboat
owner cannot discharge a member Of the
boats crew or reduce him In rank at
less pay before the time expires for
which ne has contracted with the en-
plOye.
Attorney Henry Bowden represented
the plaintiff in the case. and Attorney
John ". CAST Jr. the defense.

THE GLORIOUS - FOURTH.

Seven dead and four hundred and
twenty-nine Injured in New York City
alone is the reported result OF cele-
brating the Fourth OF July in that
city. and there were probably others,
20 say nothing Of the millions of dol
lars spent in powder. doctors bills
and loss by fire. IL is almost safe
proposition to say that more per
SONS have been killed and wounded
in celebrating the Declaration Of In
dependence than were killed and
wounded in the struggle which
brought our independence about.
All OF which goes to show that the
time has come, indeed came long
ago, when stringent measures should
be taken against the sale and use of
dangerous explosives for Fourth of
July and Christmas celebration. II
IL an easy matter to prevent the sale
and use of high explosives in the
cities by putting heavy penalties on
those who sell them and on those
who use them, and there is little or
no danger of their use to any extent
in the country. 1t is true that we
are not endangered TO any great ex-
tent in this city as the holiday was
observed in a very orderly manner
here, the chief danger being in
frightening horses. and We have
learned that several runaways were
barely averted. We believe in patri-
otto demonstration and in the en-
enlargement of the younger gener-
alton in proper celebration of the
anniversary of our national indie
pendence. but it does seem tous that
there are other and more fitting
ways OF inspiring the young MIND
with patriotic fervor than by noisy
and riotous raillery which endanger.
life and property.
