Excellent Standing of North Caro-
lima Senators.
Charlotte Chronicle.

Charlotte Chronicle
The Wilmington Dispatch SAYS the
North Carolina Senators Certainly
stand we'll to the front in the affairs
OF their country. and which is not
only gratifying to North Carolina,
but shows that the State has able
representation in the upper house of
Congress. On the new committee as
slgnments SenatorSimmons isplaced
on the finance committee, to fill the
place made vacant by no less a dis
tinguished person than Senator Tell
er. This committee is one of the most
important of all, as it has charge of
finances iii relation to revenue and
taxation especially. This committee
is probably the biggest in the Senate
and Senator Aldrich is chairman. Mr..
Simmons is already on a number of
other big committees. Senator Over
man is on several important commit
tees and has just been named on n
new one-which is called the Commit
tee on the Conservation of Natural
Resources. North Carolina has rea-
son to be proud of the recognition
given the ability and influence of her
Senator'S as evidenced by the COM
mittee assignments.

TRUTH TERSELY TOLD.

Here is something for people to
think over. What applies to the
locality referred to applies with equal
force to Vance cOunty-only a little
more so because Of the topography
OF the country and the worse condi-
ton Of the roads. The Gaffney, South
Carolina, Ledger, in advocating pub
lie road Improvement says:
Some sweet day maybe or people
will awake to the fact thai the
greatest blessing that could be be-
slowed upon them is within their
own grasp and that they alone are
responsible for depriving themselves
of ii. We spend enough money every
year on the wear and tear OF vehicles
and gears and harness and kill
enough stock pulling through the
mud to macadamize fifty miles OF
roads, or enough in sixteen years to
macadamize all the public roads in
the county.

SALAD AND EGGS.

The Farmville (Va.) Herald man
reioiceth muchly at being the reclpl-
ent of a basket of turnip salad crisp
from the patch, together with a lot
of fresh eggs which nestled on top OF
the tempting green, the gift OF kind
and thoughtful lady friend. Hear
him:
"Turnip tops and poached eggs:
We firmly believe that the Glver OF
all good intended that these two
good things should go together to
our tables. and since God has Joined
them let not man put them asunder.
Shall we add that together they
make dish fit for the gods? Let us
rather say fit for the good people OF
SOuthside Virginia.

but YOU want some corn bread and
butter milk on the side to make the
meal complete. That's IL layout fit

On every bushel of Western corn

farmer get? He "gets it in the neck. "

This is as true as gospel, but then
if people helped themselves there
would be no necessity for a law to
help them. And without agitation
and the necessity to pass ii law"
the occupation OF the politician

Tennessee Press oa the Cooper Trial
Verdict.
Bristol Herald-Courier.

Bristol Herald-COurier.
While it has been believed, and not
without some reason. that in point
of intelligence the Cooper Jury was
below the average, it has measured
up to the requirements OF the Occa-
sion fairly we'll The members of the
Jury, unused to close confinement,
have been very patient through II
long. tedious trial, and have dis
full V and doubtless conscientious w.
Under all the circumstances, this
newspaper does not feel inclined to
criticize them for their failure to deal
more harshly with the assassins.
though we still believe that the kill
ing of Senator Carmack was IA nalic-
ious and brutal murder
Chattanooga Sunday Times.
And to sum up, this verdict will
have q wholesome effect on the ap-
parent mania abroad for taking hui
man life. We must be rid of the idea
in Tennessee that we can 90 out and
shoot each other on any sort OF 1iimsy
preteXt and then through the skill of
attorneys, the imperfectiOns of our
Jury system and the technicaltips of
the law avoid the consequences OF our
acts. Senator Carmack was by no
means blameless in this affair. but he
had done nothing that called for TAX
ing of his life.
Nanph;o Name
The spirit OF progress has said
"thus far and no farther" to the
spirit of graft, selfishness, cant, pre-
tense and lawlessness in high or sup
posedly high places. The verdict in
the Cooper trial is start in the
right direction. The next criminals
at heart that would reinforce their
graft with murder will be hung.
The News Scimitar has no interest
for or against the Coopers as individ-
uals. It's interest is in the enforce
ment of real law, that which is the
same for the high and low, the poor
and the rich. It's only interest is in
progress, and it realizes that the
failure to punish the assassins of Car
mack would have entailed a stipend
Gus loss to the good name and mate
rial well-being of the State.

GOVERNOR Swanson will go into
history as an Executive who did not
abuse the pardoning power, though
his term conceded with a wave of
maudlin sympathy for criminals.
This is no small Observation-Disclosures
Landmark
And this is u worthy distinction,
certainly. There is too frequent
abuse OF the pardoning power on the
part of sympathetic governors. Fact
is the pardoning power should not
be lodged in any one man. There
should be in every State II board of
pardons thereby relieving the COVER
nor OF such responsibility and embar-
raSsment.

AS to Shooting Editors.
st. Paul Dispatch.

st. Paul Dispatch.
General Meeks' argument in the
Cooper trial, in favor OF shooting the
editor when no other remedy for
grievance is available, will be ap-
plauded by every scoundrel in the
land who has been exposed to scorn
in the public prints, or is afraid that
he will be. 1t is not the malicious Ii
bel that spurs men to deeds OF vio-
lence. The lie will recoil upon it's
authors head. 1t is the unimpeach-
able truth. uttered upon iustifiable
occasion, that moves the subject OF
it to frenzy and murder.
General Meeks is guilty OF wilfnl
misrepresentation in insinuating that
the editor is a wholly irresponsible
being. On the contrary, the editor is
constantly on trial before the bar of
public opinion. He is under a COM
polling obligation to deal Justly with
men and women or to destroy his
newspaper for FORGETTING public conf
dence. He carries a burden of public
responsibility unequaled in almost
any other pursuit or pofessiOn. He
discharges trusteeship for the pub
lie and is held to the most rigid ac-
countabiity.

The building of a 100000 cotton
mill at Marion, for which papers OF
incorporation have been taken out,
is direct result of the opening OF the
Carolina, Clinchfeld & Ohio road to
that town. Marion and Spartan
burg capitalists furnish the nest egg,
while New York capitalists chip in
for all the balance of the money that
is needed. And this is but a start.
The e., c. & o. road is destined to be
dotted with cotton mills, and what's
better, from an industrial point of

\ remarkable thing about the cleo
ton OF Hon, r. A. Doughton to the
House was the fact that the citizens of
his county besought him to run and
the Republicans promised to put out
no candidate against him but give
him their solid support. They car
ried out their agreement to the let
ter, and thus Mr.. Doughton was sent
down to represent the county by the
help of every voterin it. They needed
him in their business, and allowed
their common sense to overcome
their partisan prejudice That he
was faithful to his trust goes with

The Seaboard Air Line.

Wilmington Star
The Seaboard Air Line seems to be
getting on its feet again. The re-
ceivers are pulling it out of the hole
into which it had been put-some say
by extravaganza and lack of business
qualifications of its former managers.
OF the successful management of
the road by the receivers dispatch
from Baltimore to the Washington
Herald says:
I'm the little more than fourteen
months Receivers Warfield, Williams
and Duncan have been in charge OF the
Seaboard they have demonstrated con-
clusively that in the past the property
was extravagantly managed. They
have brought thecos of operation down
to ratio OF approximately 20 per cent.
OF gross earnings, against ratio OF 80
per cent. and higher formerly, and this
they have accomplished without neglect
ing the physical condition or otherwise
January the proportion OF opera ting ex-
penses to gross earnings was 69.43 per
cent against 66.7O in December and
1913 in January, 1905"
Every now and then there is re-
port that control of this system has
fallen into the hands of Hartman.
the great railroad up-builder, and
every time there is such report all
who are interested in the success OF
the system hope that such report is
true.
