IT is doubtless according to
law, but il seems foolish to arrest
and bind a man over to court for
an offence like shooting a man,
selling whiskey, etc., and then
haul him up for carrying conceal
ed weapon, or charge him in
several instances Of selling whis-
key. When as a natural conse-
quence men carry concealed
weapon or they would not COM
NIT assaults with them, and 1t is
not supposed that aman is guilty
Of selling whiskey in only one
instance. A man was arrested
last week in Durham charged
with stealing a pistol and the
case went over 10 the superior
court. After the one case had
been disposed he is arrested on
the assumption that he was guilty
Of stealing the pistol and bound
over TO court for carrying the
pistol that he stole. Such things
may be law, but ii will cause
many good citizens to think less
of the law.

FROM the evidence shown in
court so far it seems that DR..
Rowland, of Raleigh, is a victim
of the spite work of someone.
Of course his actions warranted
the suspicion that something was
crooked, but it did not warrants o
much publicity without some
mighty good evidence. 1t mat
tiers not how the trial may now
come out there will always be
those that are Of the opinion that
he was guilty Of some crime or
there would not have been so
much said.

MOST everybody takes a slap
at some kinds Of prohibition
legislation, and in most cases
they show how foolish some of
the laws that are passed in its
interest are. Everything, of
Greensboro, contained in the last
issue something about discrim-
ination that shows how foolish it
is to pass one law for one county
and another law for an adjoining
county. Very little good will be
accomplished for prohibition so
long as people can order and get
all the whiskey they want in one
day.

The disturbance of a public
speaker in Davidson county re-
Gently by a distiller, was out of
the ordinary, and H. Clay Grubbs,
who has figured in several af-
fairs, deserves all the hard things
that the newspapers are saying
about him, and ifthere is anyway
for the court to take hold of such
affairs he should be dealt with to
the limit.

In the light of past experience,
we never hear a man begin to
cuss some big trust but we Won
der what he would do if he had
things his way. From what we
have seen it does not take a firm
with millions of dollars to have
and use power to get the highest
possible price for his product or
to buy what he wants at the
