CROWNING DISGRACE.
The History Of Jury Trials the
World Over May Be Search
ed in Vain For Another
Such Instance.

No spot on the record of France is SO
black as that nations treatment of
Captain Alfred Dreyfus. The great
wrong done him was tardily repaired
and one would naturally think that
the government and the people would
be willing and glad to do all in their
power to make him forget the atrocious
crime committed against him.
But no; Gregori, man who wears
the epaulettes of a captain in the
French army, and who tried to shoot
down Dreyfus at the tomb of Zola,
great defender of the wronged man,
has been acquitted by jury of his
peers.
There is no question OF Gregori hav-
ing done the shooting, says the Times
Dispatch, discussing the matter edito-
rally; he boasted of the act at the
time; he boasts Of it now. His speech
to tho jury was one that none but q
Frenchman could make; that few but
a Frenchman would care to make. He
condemned every step taken in the re.
instatement of Dreytus, every eonse.
quence that has ceme from it, and
found salts faction and pride only il
the protest" made by him agains
Drsy fusism. Yet the jury declared
him to be innocent.
The history Of jury trials the worll
over may be searched in vain for an
other instance where the verdict of
Jury SO ignored the facts and disrs
garded the law.
It is announced that the acquitta

HIS GREATEST SPEECH
GeVsrasr Ayceck Strikes Death
Blew to North Carolina Repub-
IicaDS at Smithfield.

In Raleigh News & Observer

EDWARD L. CONN:
In Raleigh News & Observer
Smithfield, n. c., Sept. 17-Democ-
racy was triumphant in johnston coun-
ty today, and her matchless advocate,
Ex-Governor Charles B. Aycook, was
heard by tw o thousand men from every
s ection OF the county. 1t was great
day for Johnston, and for Democracy.
AS if inspired, for nearly two hours
Governor Aycock expounded the fun
damentals Democratic policies, at the
same time smercilessly exposing and
striking the hypocrisy OF North Caro-
lima Republicanism. He spoke for
nearly an hour in burning words on
the situation in this State, dsvotIng
the remainder Of the speech to pow
srful exposition of the Democratic
National pla torn, contrasting it with
the trust-f1avored declarations of the
National Republicans. Several dis
tinguished lawyers from other cities
who heard Governor Aycock declared
his speech to be net only the utterance
OF q statesman, but one Of the finest
masterpieces OF North Carolina politi-
calsoratery.
Two years ago disaffection in john
ston county, caused by local troubles,
reached its high water-mark. Since
that time the Democrats have been re-
CALMING their former strength grad
aally, and it is believed that Governor
Aycock's speech today has made the
restoration complete. There is per.
haps no county in the State that has
been so deeply insuated by Fedora
agents as Johnston, and the people e1
the county long ago ceased to look fol
any thing save treschery and bstraya

Aycsck in his speech spoke of the Re-
publican spy system in this county
roterring to the shameful arrest OF de

SChrieber Convicted
Jury Says That he is Guilty
of Murder in the First
Degree.

William Schrieber, who has
been on trial in st. Lotus County
Mimi, the past week, charged
with the murder Of Frank Mas
sapust at the homestead shanty
of the latter last fall, was on Sat
urday found guilty of murder in
the first degree, the penalty of
which is death or life sentence.
A new trial will undoubtedly be
asked for.
Schrieber was arrested some
time ago on information from
this city. Shortly after the mur-
der of Massapust, Schrieber
came to this city and made a deal
for some land with William Lam
draint of the town of Barksdale.
He had in his possession certifi-
Gates OF deposit amounting to
over three hundred dollars which
belonged to Massapust. These
he had forged and attempted to
cash the same at the Bayfield,
County Bank. President Maxcy
of the bank gave the man seventy
five dollars on the certificates
and then sent them to the bank
at Virginia for collection. When
the certificates arrived at Vir-
ginia they were marked forged
and returned. 1t was then that
the search for Schrieber was
started which resulted in his ar
rest.
In case Schrieber is given a
new trial and is acquitted, he
will be brought here to stand
trial for forgery.
