JUDGE JErER &. pR1uHARD.

North Carolina Jurist Involved In
States Rights Controversy.
i A temporary truce was established
In North Carolina where governmental
adjustment of railroad rates brought
on clash between Federal and State
authorities. The clash was of wide
spread interest because 1t not only in
.volved the arrest of prominent railroad
men, but 1t threatened to raise ques-
ton of State rights to be fought out
10 the next Presidential. election.
North Carolina made 2A cent uni
form passenger rate. This was violat-
ed by two ticket agents, whereupon
they were arrested and sent to jail for
thirty days. Appeal was made to Fed
eral Judge Jeter c. Pritehard, who dis
charged the two men and declared the
PENALTY clause of the rate law uncon-
stitutional. The Pritchard decision
was handed down despite the request
Of Governor Glenn for delay until the
legal authorities of the State could be
heard. AT the same time Governor
Glenn ordered Superior Court Solicitor
Brown to resist to the utmost the re-
lease of the defendants, promising
armed protection to the State officers,
and thus precipitating direct conflict
Of authority between the Federal court
and the State of North Carolina.
With view to adjusting this con.
fllct of authorities. Assistant Attorney

General Sanford was sent to Presi-
dent Roosevelt to Ashevllle to propose
compromise, providing that the In
junction suit be brought to final hear
ipga at once, that the habeas corpus
proceedings under the rate law in the
State courts be suspended until the
Supreme Court of the United States
could render final Judgment. This
proposition was rejected by Governor
Glenn promptly, as involving his sur.
render to the Federal Court. He said
he would not consider any offer from
the other side until the railroad had
complied with the law, and until the
Federal Courts had recognized the
right OF the State to Institute suits and
to prosecute them under the existing
law. He ordered other prosecutions to
be proceeded with, saying that he would
use every lawful means to enforce the
laws of the State. He held that the
interference of Judge Pritchard pre-
vented the State courts from perform
Ing their duties and would have tied
the hands Of the Governor. However,
after President Finley of the Southern
railway permitted himself to be ar
rested compromise was reached
whereby all questions under contro-
versy are to go to the higher courts for
settlement and the railroad agrees to
put the new rates into effect.
Judge Pritchard formerly served
eight years in the United States SEN
ate. having been elected on the Re
publican-Populist fushion ticket. At the
end of his term he was appointed by
President Rooseaelt to the Supreme
bench Of the District of Columbia, and
one year later was elevated to the Cir
cult Court.

A Popular Minister.

The Rev. Judson Baxter, the new In
cumbent of Riverboro Center parish,
was voted by his people to be as near
perfection as a minister can be in this
finite world. His young wife had a
small income Of her own. This was n
distinct and unusual advantage, and
as soon as 1t was generally known, says
the author Of The New Chronicles of
Rebecca," the subscription committee
Immediately hoped that they might
not be eternally driving over the coun-
try to get somebody's fifty cents that
had been overdue for eight months,
but might take their onerous duties
more easily. Said one Of them:
ut does seem as II our ministers
were the poorest lot! If their salary
Is two months behindhand they begin
to be nervous! Seems as though they
might lay up little before they come
here, and not live from hand to month
So"
1.-THE Baxters seem quite different,
and only hope they won't get waste
full and run into debt" said Mrs. Rob
inson, rather dolefully. 'sThey say she
keeps the parlor blinds open bout half
the time, and the room is lit up so
often evenings that the neighbors
think her and Mr.. Baxter must set in
there. 1t don't seem hardly as If 1t
could be so, but Mrs. Buzzell says it's,
and she says we might as well say
good-by to the pa''lor carpet, which is
church property, for the Bakers are
living all over it"
This criticism was the only dlscord-
ant note In the chorus of praise, and
the people gradually grew accustomed
to the open blinds and the over-used
carpet, which was Just completing Its
twenty fifth year Of honest service.

BEAUTY IN NATURE.

There is beauty in the spring-time,
In the budding of the flowers;
There is beauty in the bird songs
Echoing through the leafy bowers.
Beauty in the laughing streamlet,
Ripping DER its pebbly bed,
Beauty In the fieecy cloudlets
In the springtime sky o'erhead.
There is beauty in the rain drops
Glistening on the dripping trees,
Beauty in the waving flowers,
Famed by every Maynard breeze;
In the rivers placid bosom,
Where are mirrored cloud and sky
Beauty in the song bird soaring
Through the ether blue on high.
There is beauty in the autumn,
With its brightly tinted leaves,
Beauty in the few pale fow'rets
Over which the zephyr grieves.
Beauty in the snow of winter,
White and spotless, pure and cold !;
Beauty when the wintry sunlight
Casts DER all a glow like gold.
Yes, there's beauty in all Nature,
In all seasons as they fly
Beauty In the fields about us,
Beauty in the azure sky;
Beauty, whether May-day sunshine
Floods the earth with glory bright,
Or the sparkling snow of winter
Wraps the earth in mantle white.

When the two boys were out of sight,

Three days later three horsemen
drew rein before the loghouse of Fonts
father, nesting snugly in a beautiful

Harry, and the man accompanying
