LAWYERS ~ wARA DEBATE.


in the Edwards Case.
There vas a spirited debate in the
Wake Courthouse Friday when the
case against siIas Edwards, OF Raj
eigh. charged with retailing was cali
ed. The defense announced that they
were ready for trial. but the Solicitor
objected to trying the case then. de-
claring the State could not get q fair
trial with the jury then empaneiled
! because of the sentiment against
present at the trial gives the follow
ing account OF some Of the proceed
ings:
Declaring frankly that because
of bias on the part of some jurors
the State could not get a fair trial
in the liquor selling case against ST.
las Edwards. an appeal from the po-
lice court. Solicitor Herbert f. Nor
ris precipitated a spirited colloquy
In Wake Superior Court to-day, gain
ed his point and had the Edwards
case continued. This was not ac-
complished until after Judge Webb
had listened to extensive arguments
on the part OF Messrs. Armistead
Jones & Son, counsel for Edwards.
and the Solicitor. In continuing the
case Judge Webb said he could hard
iy believe that blind tigers and their
sympathiZers would pack the court
house In the hope OF being drawn as
jurors for the purpose OF acquitting
man. And If the Judge could get
hold of such a man he would mete
out punishment severe enough for
the offense. A good deal OF factional-
ism was injected in the arguments by
the lawyers.
THE controversy between the So
licitor and the attorneys for Silas
Edwards was precipitated by the
statement of the Solicitor that the
State could not hope to get a fair
trial at this term of court and the
request that continuance be grant
ed. Mr.. Norris said he had gone rea-
sons for his assertion.
''Mr. w B. Jones said that the So
llCIIOI, IL LIE udu SOOu IcdSOHS, SHOuIu
give some valid reason why the Ed
wards case should not come to trial
to-day. Mr.. Jones said Edwards,
who was under $500 bond and who
had over twenty witnesses, insisted
on a trial"
The case against Edwards was
continued as we'll as the case against
Tom Morris, another alleged blind
tiger who had appealed from the de-
cision of the police court.

MAY HAVE HOT CONTEST.

Reported in Raleigh That Mr.. Arm
istead Jones and Mr.. j. w. Bailey
| Will Oppose Each Other for SEN
ate.
The Democratic factions in Wake
| County are preparing for another
struggle. 1t is reported that Jones
and Bailey will opposed each other
| for the State Senate, which will mean
a lively Democratic fight in the pri-
mary.
The following is a portion of an ar
ticle that appeared in Tuesdays Raj
eigh Times:
Decidedly the most interesting
positical gossip going the rounds
these days Is the talk of Mr.. Arm
istead Jones and Mr.. J. w. Bailey as
opponents for the State Senate. This
is not merely gossip either, but is
based ON declarations made by these
gentlemen to their friends.
Should Mr.. Jones becomes a can
didate in the primary-which is to
be held the first Saturday in June
he will surely be opposed by Mr..
Bailey. This gentleman has told
some of his friends that if either Mr.
Armistead Jones or Mr.. w. B. Jones
aspires to the nomination, he will find
Mr.. Bailey opposing him. Mr.. Bailey
led the good government faction two
years ago and, like Mr.. Jones, can put
up good fight.
with these men opposing each
other, all former campaigns in Wake
County would look like a debate be-
tween two Sunday-school classes. If
the truth must be said, Mr.. Bailey
does not love Mr.. Jones, and Mr..
Jones does not love Mr.. Bailey.
I'm the meantime both factions are
said to be considering the best ma
terial possible for the other legisla-
tive candidates"
