What a Democratic Paper Voluntarily
Has to Say of the Republican Nom
inee for Chief Justice.
1.-THE Henderson Gold Leaf, a Dem
ocratic paper edited by Thad R. Man
ming, has the following to say of
Hon. T. T. Hicks, the Republican
nominee for Chief Justice The eau
casian takes pleasure in reproducing
the same.-LOcal Editor
The nomination of our townsman,
I. t. Hicks, by the Republican State
Convention for Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court of North Carolina, is
a compliment Of which not only that
gentleman, but his friends here at
home and elsewhere, should feel
very proud. It is very high office
for which he has been named, and
the vote was altogether compliment
tary to him.
For the same honorable position
the names of such men as Hon. Robt
NJ. Douglass, one time Associate JUS
| tice of the Supreme Court of North
Carolina, and Hon. William P. By
mum, former Judge of the Superior
Court, were presented. The vote. as
published last week in this paper.
was 4S1 for Hicks, 337 for Douglas.
and 24S for Bynum, on the first bal
lot. Judge Bynum's name being
withdrawn, the second ballot result
ed in the nomination of Mr.. Hicks by
vote of GIL against 42O for Judge
Douglas.
Mr.. Hicks was not candidate and
the vote he received under the cir
| cumstances, with such a formidable
competition pittied against him, is all
the more complimentary and credit
able. When his name was mentioned
ne discouraged the idea and declared
that there were others whose elaine
should be considered ahead of his.
He did not aspire to the place: all he
wanted was to be an humble worker
IN the ranks. But the convention
would have it otherwise. They want
ed Hicks to head the ticket. and
Hicks they made it.
The honor may be an empty one.
but it is an honor none the less to be
singled out from among all the able
and distinguished men who hold al
leg1ance to the Republican party of
North Carolina for the high Office of
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
Nor is this the only recognition that
the high character and marked abil-
| ity OF our townsman has received
When successor to the late Judge
Purnell was to be appointed for the
Federal Court of the Eastern District
OF North Carolina, the name of Mr.
Hicks was among the most prom;-
nent or those that were urged-and
some OF his strongest endorsements
came from persons outside of his own
party. Although he did not get the
appointment. these letters and en-
dorsements, coming as they did from
some OF the very best men in tba
State without regard to political HAS
are In themselves something tn ha
proud OF. and the honor that has been
conferred upon him in being MONT
mated by his party for the great of-
nee OF Chief Justice-the conf,danc.
and esteem reposed in his abilitv
and integrity-is heritage that no

Why Some Towns Grow.

The reason ny some tow : grow
is because there are men OF push and
energy in it. who are not afraid to
spend their time and money to boom
their town. They erect substantial
buildings, orga nize stock companies
and establish factories, secure rail-
roads work for public improvements
and use every means in their power
to induce people to locate in thor
city. Wherever they so. they tell of
the advantages Of their city, they
write about II EN- in ever! letter, they
send circulars aud newspapers TO all
whom they think they can get to visit
the city, and when anyone visits them
treats him so kindly that he falls in
love with them and their city ut one.

 We have been receiving the Daily Alaskan direct from you for some time and we want to thank you very kindly. They are of great interest for us as we srfI have very kind feeling fOrSEag- ,vav and often sort of wish we were blclS and especially when we read of some of the good times they have had,
 When We entered High School the teachers were much surprised to think we had really attended High School in Alaska. Our school has fifteen teachers and about four hundred pupils. We are doing real well in our work and like it very much.
 During the Christmas holiday we visited in Plymouth, Indiana. Most of the people we met said to usI suppose 0bfs is just like summer to you and the thermometer was registering from zero to ten degrees below zero and there was about two feet of snow on the level They could hardly believe that the winters here are very much the same as they are there.

OUTBREAK AGAINST THE STRIKERS.
Police Called on IN New Lonooa While Erattleboro
Shows Vioencs-Aon Union Men Can Get No
Meals Along Line.

parted for Brattleboro. where consid-
cradle difficulty is being experienced
because of the hostility of the people
of that place to the strike breakers.
Sympathy is altogether with the strik-
ers there, and every opportunity which
has presented itself mas been take2
advantage of to make it disagreeable
for the new men.
The strike breakers are not the
only ones who are receiving discom-
future along the line of the road. En-
gineers and firemen running the trains
are being subjected to insults and
abuse from the strike sympathizers.
One engineer running a train stated
Thursday night he and his fireman had
been the target of all kinds of missiles
thrown at them by people in towns
through which they run.
Police Call in New London.
For the first time since the strike
was started a disturbance which ne
ance occurred at New London Friday
morning. Someone, thought to be a
strike breaker, fired a shot from pis-
toll into the air from the top of one of
the freight cars in the yard of the
Central Vermont railway in East
New London. The matter was report
ed at police headquarters and PATROL
men Benjamin White and Charles A.
Pinney we're sent to the scene of the
firing. Two strike breakers were TAX
en- into custody and brought to police
headquarters where they were ques-
toned regarding the shooting. AS they
We're able to furnish proof that they
were in no way responsible for the
shot, they were released by Captain
George Haven.
The firing of the shot was the re-
suit of the hostility which has been
displayed against the strike breakers
by the women and boys in the vicinity
of East New London. For the past
two or three days this hostility has
taken the form of stoning the freight
went through the yards. Friday morn
ing a couple of women, assisted by
several youngsters, took to stoning
the cars and hurting other missiles.
The pistol shot was fired probably as
a means of intimfdating the offenders.
AS result of Friday mornings dis
turbance the authorities of the Central
Vermont railway in New London have
asked for police protection. Several
supernumeraries have been detailed
to report for duty, and the yards of
the road in that city will be policed.
There is no evidence as yet that
the strikers are in any way response
BILE for the action of the women and
boys toward the strike breakers. The
strikers have asserted that they will
not sanction any displays of violence
and that they have thus far lived up
to this policy On the other hand, one
of the strike breakers in New London
reported that the strikers were aware
that the strike breakers are nearly all
armed.

OLD LYME FERRY
is $50 YEARS OLD
Established About Time Norwich Was
Founded Washington Crossed
There,

Most of the automobile owners up
and down the Connecticut river valley
know the Lyme ferry. Many of them
have paid the small fee for taking
them from one side of the river to the
other and have remarked at the con-
venience of the arrangement, but few
have realized that the ferry between
Lyme and SaybrOok has had long
history and has borne noted men
| across the bosom of the Connecticut.
The ferry is about $50 years old,
older than all but two or three OF the
towns of the state Ii was establish ed
by the general court in 1862, has been
in use continuously since, and is the
oldest ferry in the state and possibly
in New England. In the early days
the charges were twelve cents for a
man on horseback and six cents for
man afoot. In 1886 the charges We're
reduced to eight cents for a man and
horse and three cents for a man. In
those days the ferryman did a thriving
business. for this route was the prin
cipal one between New York and Bos-
ton.
The officers of the king of England
We're much in evidence in those days,
and they pestered the ferryman with
out measure, for they expected to be
speedily taken across in all sorts of
weather or at any hour of the night or
day. To make the matter mora trouble
some. the ferryman was not allowed
to charge an officer of the king. In
1882 therefore, the general court was
politely informed by certain prominent
N en- of Saybrook that they were weary
of carrying the kings officers free of
charge" The court Modified them
somewhat by allowing them to add
few pennies to the charge of the COM
mon people.
April 9. 17T6, was a proud day for
the Lyme ferry for that day the ferry
man carried Gen. George Washington
across to Saybroolc ON his way to New
York. In September of the same year
four companies of Continental troops,
marching to New York kept the ferry
man busy for several hours.
A few days after the battle of Gro
ton Heights. near New London, on
Sept. 6, 1871. the dead bodies of five
soldiers were carried across the ferry
and buried in the old burying ground
a Saybrook Point. Among them was
the body of a lad whose grave bears
this inscription: Daniel. son of Capt.
Charles and Mrs. Temperance Williams
who fell in the action on Fort Girls
void. Groton Hill, on the 9Th of
September, 1881. in the 18th year of
his age.
Jabez Stowe, who was the first to
bring the news of the above battle to
Lyme probably crossed this ferry,
reaching Saybrook about 4 O'clock in
the morning. During his second visit
to this country General Lafayette
crossed this ferry and is said to have
been let on the banks of the river by
all the school children of the town of
Lyme. who showered him with flowers.
