The editor has never been
charged with having any particu-
lar love for the railroads. In
fact the time has been when
much bitterness existed between
them. Nevertheless we believe
in Justice aud fairness always
even to railroad, and it seems
to us that nothing could be fairer
than the proposition on the part
of the railroads to put into effect
the 21c rate in this state if the
Alabama suit should be decided
in favor of this rate, and to pay
back the half cent excess in this
event Our state authorities,
however it seems are not willing
to wait for the termination ofthis
suit which has already reached
the supreme court ana Will be
decided within few months at
the most, but are proceeding to
bring suit, employing counsel etc.
for that purpose. This seems to
us as a very great and costly
blunder. If the DC rate is rea'
sonable one we could have gotten
its benefits quicker, and without
expense, and fight and friction
which is good neither for state
or railroads, by awaiting the de-
cision in the Alabama case, than
in bringing a separate and long
drawn out legal contest of our
own.

SENSIBLE SUGGESTION.

The following excerpts from a
staunch regular journal, the Giles
County Record, shows "A keen lu-
sight into present-day problem,
a breadth and charity of view in
estimating motives that is most
commendable, especially as so few
of the regular organs are showing
such far and manly spirit.
The Record says:
at is difficult to see how any
body who hears Ex-Governor NJ.
X. Patterson can doubt mis- sinceri-
ty. lie has been made into new
man by his religious convictions,
and there is not now IN the entire
world a more ardent advocate of
the complete destruction of the
whiskey evil than Coy. Patterson.

knowledged him to be man of
great intellect and wonderful force
lie has now become the champion
of the cause for which lndepend
ents stand and his change Of hear

to do the Regular Democratic or
ganization great injury. Adroi

worked the fight to make 1t appea
that the Regulars are the champ
ons of whiskey The whiske,
people themselves have grabbe
the Regulars around the neck an
they are hanging on like a grea
leech. The time has come whe
the Regulars must shake off thi
whiskey incubus and it must }

Gov. Patterson has knocked I'll
props out from under Gov Hoo

the opportunity, if they want

of playing politics, to fall in b

result of the death of Luther NC

1t was charged by the government
that McCarty died as the result OF
a blow administered by Pelky. The
Jury was out less than an hour and :
half before a verdict, although Chief
Justice Harvey's charge was said to
be unfavorable to the defendant. In
his charge Justice Harvey admitted
that there was some doubt as to
whether or not the contest was ille-
gal, but he said there was no doubt
that death had been caused by blow
and that the jury should consider
only whether the defendant was
guilty of causing the death OF his
opponent in an effort to win the prize
placed upon the contest.
