A Judge Who Sees Both Sides.

"lf labor unions picket a fac

owner to expense for guards and
employees, they must reimburse
him for such expense, according
to ruling February 9th, 1909, by
Justice Mills, sitting i'll the Su-
p1eme Court. The case in point
was heard by Justice Mills in Jan
uary. 1t was brought by Joseph

Speedometer Company, which has
a factory in New Rochelle and
another in Harlem. The suit was
directed against George M. Mari

a co.defeudant. The machinists
and fremen struck and posted
pickets around the shop and MI.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they can

is infamed you have a rumbling

ENGINES COLLIDE.
A Serious Smash-up in Which, Strange to
Say, no Lives Were Lost.

| A big smssh-up occurred on the
main line of the Southern at the
lower end of the coal chute yester
cay afternoon at 5 o'clock. Three
engines participated and it seems
almost a miracle that no one was
injured.
At the point where the wreck
occurred the tracks are in the
shape of the letter "N," the main
line and a switch running paral-
lei and short spur track connect
ing the two. Freight engine No.
482, in charge of Engineer McCoin,
was on the switch getting coal and
waiter at the chute. The yard
engine was on the switch just be-
low waiting for the freight engine
to move out of the way. Engin-
eer McCoin backed off the switch
on the spur for the purpose of get
ting on the main line and clearing
the switch. He did not glance up
the main line and train No. %,
Asheville to Goldsboro, two hours
late, crashed into his engine.
Meantime the yard engine was
moving toward the coal chute, the
freight engine having about clear
ed the switch.
The passenger engine was in
charge of engineer Hence May and
he did not see the freight engine
in time to stop. But he decreased
the speed of his engine consider
ably, The collision sent the
freight engine crashing against
the yard engine which in turn
drove the freight engine jam
against the passenger engine. The
yard engine then bounden from
the switch to an adjoining track
and was secure on the rails before
it could be stopped. The other
engines were rammed together and
the wrecking crew from Danville
had to be summoned before the
tracks could be cleared. The two
engines were badly damaged and
will be taken to the shops for re-
pairs.
An engine from the yards here
was attached to train No. % and
it resumed its journey east after
delay of half an hour.-Greensbo-

"JeW" Is the Correct Designation

'The proper term to use of the
modern descendants of the ancient
patriarchs and prophets Is Jew"
declared Rabbi David Philipson
in al address at the Avondale
Temple last night. His subject
was, "Jew, Israelite, Hebrew" "
and he told of the meaning of the
three terms.
broadly speaking, I. should
say that Hebrew is the linguistic
term and is properly used Of those
who speak the Hebrew language"
said he. 'Since the Jews speak
the language tie country which
they are citizens, Hebrew is not
the proper term to be applied to
them, even though it is the Gus.
tom of some society reporters,
when describing some function in
swell jewish circles, to speak of
the Hebrew aristocracy.'
ION the same broad lines it may
he said that Israelies was the Ma
tional name of the people while
they dwelt in Palestine. Since the
Jews are no longer a nation, but a
religious community, scattered
among the nations of tho world
and attached politically to their
several fatherlands, this term
Israelite also is not properly used
nowadays when speaking of them.
TIE name Jew is the religious cog.
nomen corresponding to the term
applied to the faith. In speaking
Of this faith we call it neither

that the prop4r term to use of the

archs and pr"phets is Jew That

the remainder for IN provements.

MONEY TALKS.
An Intimation That is Saying too Much
TO North Carolina People Just Now.

That it does. And it talks tc
Souther.. people as loud as to ou1
brethren Of the North. When we
were poor we spent our time abus-
ing the tariff. Now we abuse it
only in spots. louisiana wants her
sugar protected, and the lumber
interests are clamoring for their
share. We formerly berated the
trusts-literaly fayed them alive.
Now we speak softly about them
and then turn pale when they
threaten to leave US. Of course
we still pour cut vials of wrath
against the Standard Company
and old John D. Rockefeller, for
he lives in New York and his CON.
pany has small holdings in North
Carolina, but we have changed our
attitude towards thu American
Tobacco Co., and all because the
Dukes are spending money freely
in Durham town and at other
places. The Dukes are also about
to swipe every ounce of water
power power in the State, which
means that they will ultimately
get the factories, too, and the
statesmen who were trained to
to abuse trusts say in a whisper,
"Be careful! OF you will injure the
business interests"
We listened to q speech in the
Senate last week, Of remarkable
pungency and power. 1t was by
Senator Lockhart of Anson:covnty.
on this very question. He warn
ed the Legislature against the evil
day and pointed out that the cra-
ven cowardice of the Kentucky
Legislature compelled the Night
Riders to bring the American
Tobacco Company to its knees;
and he urged the Senate to re.
member what had been promised
the peopleon every stump IN North
Carolina; but the "business inter-
ests" now dominate the situation,
siuce the election is over, and the
very men so violent three or four
months ago, are gentle as cooling
doves today. Money has spoken.
Have you ever noticed how COM
pletely a mans attitude changes
when he rises in the scale of pros.
perity?
We happen to think of a man
who at one time would have all
but'laid down'hls life for the "dear
pee pull" but who, having struck
luck ard made $4,000 on his
truck farm, hasgrown wonderfully
conservative, and thinks first of
the moneyed clssses and afterward
of the common folks whom he
formerly adored. Money is talk
ing to our Southern people as it
never talked before We are all
alike and the best of us listen to
it's soothing song CHARITY and
