In the entire annals of historic Grim
inal prosecutions no speech was ever
delivered that created more of sem
sation. was more widely read or more
often quoted than Daniel webster's
speech in defense of the Common
wealth of Massachusetts, In the Knapp
murder trial
In his usually eloquent way, among
other things Webster said on the SUBJ
Ject of murder: 1T must be confess
ed, will be confessed: there Is no re-
fuge from confession but suicide, and
suicide Is confession. The secret which
the murderer possesses soon comes to
possess him: and. like the evil spirits
of which we read, 1t overcomes him
and leads him whithersoever it Will.
He thinks the whole world sees 1t In
his face. reads 1t in his eyes. and al
most hears its workings In the very
silence of his thoughts.
True 1t Is that Providence hath so
ordained and doth SO govern things
that those who break the great law
OF heaven by shedding mans blood
seldom succeed In avoiding discovery.
Especially In a case exacting so much
attention as this, discovery must eefne
sooner or later. A thousand eyes turn
at once to explore every man. every
thing. every circumstance connected
with the time and place; q thousand
cares catch every whisper, thousand
excited minds intently dwell on the
scene. shedding all their light and
ready to kindle the slightest circum-
stance into a blaze Of discovery. Mean
time the guilty soul cannot keep its
own secret.
The whole creation of God has
neither nook nor corner where the
guilty can bestow II and say 1t is safe.
The deed Is done. The assassin re-
treats retraces his step. No eve has
seen him, no ear has heard him. The
secret Is his own and Is safe!
All gentlemen, that LIZ dreadful
mistakei Such a secret can be safe
nowhere. Not to speak of that eye
which chances through all DISCUSSES
and beholds everything as in the
spIendor OF noon--such secrets OF
guilt are never safe from detection,
even by men. True 1t Ia, generally
speaking. that murder will OUT

Chiyalry of journalism.

Honest fighting men invariably find
the mselves shifting sides. This gives
rise to strange contrasts. 1t Is pro-
iihc source of that effective but faul-
ty argument contained in the 'paral-
| lei column"
For instance about two years ago
Governor Kitehin WAS going about
the State engaged in public can
vass and declaring on every stump
that he was being assailed and mis-
represented by the Charlotte Observ-
err For its part, that worthy paper
took the position that such misrep-
resentation as was going on consist
ed solely In the charge which was
being brought against II.
Now, at a moment when the Gov
ernors action In the Shemwell case
la subtecting him to practically uni
versal criticism, the Charlotte OBJ
servers is almost the only voice
worth listening to which is raised In
his defense.--Abin Star.

At Last.

The news from Washington is that the military
court of inquiry which, during the last year, has
been investigating the shooting-up of Browns
ville Tex finds that the evidence clearly sustains
the charge that the shooting was done by soldiers
of the Twenty fifth Infantry, colored
1t has cost the government something more than
a quarter of million dollars to secure this YER
dict but it is gratifying to be assured that accord
ing to the act creating the board of inquiry, the
findings of the board are final and cannot be re-
viewed And so ends at last that Brownsville
affair, colored.

Near Beer saloons.

The press Of the State, almost with

many of the so-calied near beer places
are in reality blind tigers. This Is
not true Of all OF them. for some obey

are open the police find most OF tner~

law.
The town authorities of most large
towns have made the license high
some have made 1t as high as $4,000
Others have put 1t at 81 ,000. Cities
as large as Raleigh ought to put tn
license at not less than $1,000, and
then when license Is given at all care
should be taken to have police sur
velllance to see that intoxicants are
not sold. The courts have held THAI
the cities may fix the license at sucn
figures as they deem proper. 1t would
be we'll II the license was fixed at a
prohibitory figure. At any rate, the
city OF Raleigh will do well to get
$1,000 from each or close them up.
