The Sidewalks Contract.

One of the out-of-town bidders
on the new sidewalks says:
IF the specifications are CON-
piled with the walks will last a
life time. The Main street
walks should last almost for
ever"
The contract has not yet been
let. The council will hold a
meeting soon when it will be
awarded.
The first issue of bonds for
this purpose is $40, 900. The
total issue is to be $68, 600.
Probably every other street
will be paved. The others will
be paved with later issues of
bonds.

latest attempt to fleece the State
BY the Rhode Island Wayis only
evidence Of the evils
visited upon the people during
the few administrations for
which the democratic party is
not responsible.
We are pleased to note that
the lower house Of the Rhode
Island Legislature promptly re-
pudiated the action Of the
schemers. and that the Governor
of that state declares he will not
be a party to any such piece Of
perfidy. The senate branch,
however, referred the bill passed
unanimously by the house to a
committee, ana we are Hrm IL
our belief that the Senate would
also have passed it unanimously
but for the interference and in
fuence of the same bunch that
instigated the whole affair.
If North Carolina had ever had
the benefit of these bonds we
would say, PAY THEM, but
when they were made and dis
posed of with no other idea than
to defraud the State. we are I'M
alterably opposed to the giving
UP of a single dollar for the pur-
pose.

gressman's word is usually ac-
cepted in making recommends

his district andMr. Grants con-
duct in this instance has created
a storm Of disapproval throughout
the tenth district and the State.
Imagine w. Z. Crawford fling q
secret affidavit against any con-
stituent, much less a defenseless
widow, in an effort to land a po-
litical favorite. He would suffer
defeat a thousand times rather
than be guilty of such impru-
dence. During his many terms
in congress from this district Mr..
Crawford word was never ques-
toned by any of the depart
mental officials at Washington
and would not have been had he
been permitted to represent the
district forty years longer. It is
not to the credit of Mr.. Grant
that he felt impelled to trump up
personal charges against a lady
whom he desired to displace in
order to adjust a political obliga-
ton.
In an editorial referring to this
remarkable incident in the politi-
cal life of Mr.. Grant the Char
lotte Observer declares:
Whatever the outcome may
be, Mr.. Grant is hearing hornets
about his ears. Evidently Mrs.
Reed has more friends, and
friends of more determination,
than the Congressman supposed
when he had her deposed from
office on a secret charge that she
attempted to bride him. AS to
the truth of Mr.. Grants charge
we know nothing; but we do
know that whether true or false,
he acted both disgracefully and
with bad judgement in attacking
a woman by secret charges
stabbing her in the back in the
dark, as it were. Did she at
tempt to bride him, the proper
course for MI. Grant would have
been at once and openly to make
the charge. By his course of de-
lay and secrecy he has greatly
injured his cause if there was
ever any virtue in it and has
raised, to say the least, grave
suspicion in public mind concern
ing the truth Of his charges"

If a Democratic president and
the houses of Congress had. been
guilty of the unspeakable mushi-
ness and vindictiveness of the
present establishment the Re
publicans of the country would
have been working overtime adj
vertising it; but the Democrats
are doing nothing of the kind,
believing that, furnished the
rope, the whole kit and bilin' of
them will hang themselves,

CRANT-REED AFFAIR AGAIN.

The Grant-Reed controversy
over the Biltmore postmastership
is attracting widespread atten-
ton in this section of the State,
since congress convened after
the holiday recess, and the final
outcome of the affair is waited
with interest. Mrs. Reeds
friends are after Mr.. Grant in
dead earnest and his political
undoing is predicted when they
have succeeded in presenting her
side of the case. She has en-
ployed able counsel and the Ashe-
vile Citizen thinks that only Mr..
Grants immunity as a congress
man saves him from being taken
into custody under arrest and
bail proceedings for libel. That
paper has this to say:

OLD BONDS AGAIN

It would seem, after the his
tory of the repudiated bonds of
the State of North Carolina issued
be the Legislature of 1868-69 had
been so thoroughly aired, to be
mere surplusage to mention the
matter again. However, the re-
cent apparently well-laid plans
of the gang who worked the
Rhode Island authorities to the
extent Of having a notice of suit
for the collection of a half mil
lion of these old repudiated bonds,
donated to that state by the
holders, served on the Treasurer
of North Carolina, makes it
necessary to again revert to the
subject. At this distance it ap-
pears an almost successful
attempt to borrow Rhode Island
and use it as a cats paw in the
hope of establishing a precedent
that would eventually compel
North Carolina to pay these old
bonds for which she never re-
ceived a cent of benefit. And if
we may venture a guess, it is
the child Of the same parentage
that issued the bonds and stole
them.
It is a periodical effort, an
aftermath of the days of the
scalawag, and serves to remind
us that, under the forced pre-
tentions of cleanliess and respect
ability, the remnant of the same
crowd that instigated this mon.
strOus fraud, the republican
party, is, and always has been in
North Carolina, the tool of the
crookedest and rankest bunch Of

These friends added that un-
less President Taft or the United
States Senate took action which
would vindicate the former post
mistress of Biltmore from the
written charges made against her
by Mr.. Grant some months ago,
(which secured her removal from
the office, the Congressman would
be taken in arrest and bail pro-
ceedings as soon as Congress
expired in order to have a jury
pass on the truth of the charges
made by Mr.. Grant to the Post
master General, that Mrs. Reed
tried to bride him.
These statements followed an
interview given in Washington
yesterday by Attorney Frank
Carter of Asheville, who has
gone there in the interest of Mrs.
Reed, in which he states that
Chief G.. Greenwood of South
Biltmore has recently filed an af-
fdaVit with the Postmaster Gen
eral in which he says that prior
to the removal of Mrs. Reed as
postmistress and the interim ap-
pointment of B. j. Luther Mrs.
Reed sought to bride him by
offering him 500 for his influ-
ence with Congressman Grant to
retain her in Office, and that Mr..
Grants chairman, Mr.. w. E.
Logan of this city, who has been
practically agreed on by the three
Republican congressman. from
this State as United States mar
shall for the western district, has
also filed an affidavit of a damag-
ing nature about Mrs. Reed, the
particulars thereof not being
stated.
Mr.. Carter states that he is
ready to present to the President,
whom he hopes to see personally,
copies of court records showing
that Greenwood has been indicted
here for numerous offences, such
as laceny and assault with deadly
weapons, and also that Green
woods son is now an employe of
the Biltmore office, under Mr..
Luther, in order to show that
Congressman Grant has been
obliged to and does not hesitate

against Mrs. Reed. It IS stated
that it is the attorneys purpose
to remain in Washington until he
is enabled to see the President
and Mrs. Reeds friends believe
that when he does Mr.. Taft will
not send in the name of Mr..
Luther, although there is no
charge against him, but will in
stead appoint Mrs. Reed"

cluded, by this time, that he has

Lear Dill MIS- Hdll1llC Ou11d
Reed was appointed postmaster
at Biltmore, N. c., to succeed
her deceased husband, DR..
George w. Reed. Upon the ex-
piration of her term she applied
for re-appointment, and the re-
cord of her administration of the
office was so good, her endorse
ments by the patrons of the
office so strong, and the senti-
ment, both in the department
and in the community, in favor
of retaining a widow who had
made good was so obvious
that she felt, and her friends
felt, that her application should
receive your support.
The disappointment of this ex-
pectation was accepted as one of
the vicissitudes of politics until
lit became known that her dis
placement in favor of MI. B. j..
Luther had been procured by
means of a secretly-preferred
charge that she had been guilty
of the crime of attempted
bribery, in connection with her
application, and that the charge
was supported by affidavits made
by you and by members of your
family.
Protesting her innocence of
this charge, and valuing her good
name more than the Office or the
paltry savings accumulated dur
ing her incumbency, Mrs. Reed
employed counsel to vindicate her
character by contesting the
charge against her in every form
in which it may properly be pre-
sented.
Her present effort is to secure
her vindication from the author
ity with which the Fcharge was
lodged through reinstatement
into the Office from which she
was removed. / am her repre-
sentative in this effort, and as
such am addressing you this

We are informed that you have
filed an affidavit by one Chief
Greenwood. who is chiefly noted
for his versatility in crime, but
we have no knowledge as to con-
tents of said affidavit, except
such as comes to us through

no knowledge either as to the
names of the deponents or the

The New Canon Law.

The last section of the new Code of
Canon Law, that dealing with Judg-
ments, is now practically complete,
and awaits only some retouches which
the Holy Father, says Rome, has de-
cided to add to it with his own hand
The three volumes of the first draft
of the Code will be sent separately, at
intervals of four months. to all the Or
dinaries of the Catholic world, and a
fixed period will be allowed them to
study each volume. and make such sug-
gestions as may seem good to them. The
parts affecting religious will also, very
probably, be submitted TO the Superior
of Orders and Congregations for the
same scope. The work of final revision
will be begun here in Rome at the ex-
piration of each Of the three periods al
lowed to the Bishops for examination
and 1t is hoped that in two years from
now the colossal work, which has so
far occupied the whole of the Pontifi-
cate of Plus X. will be completed.
