RIDGEWAY COMPANY
 ANSWER ID SLOAN

In answering the complaint filed hy the attoreys of Judge Richard E. Sloan in New York, against J2e Ridgway company, owner ol Ey- erybody's Magazine asking for thousand dollars On account of an article written by Rarrs Blighton, the attorneys for the magazine seem to rest their defense on the alleged fact that Sloan's reputation is noto- riously bad personally, professionally and officially. Of course a newspa- per when it is sued in the courts must make answer and no cue would expect Eyerybodys to do anything else than to deny that d was a publis slandered, though it will have harl work in escaping that class if it re tains such men as Blighton on it's staff Here is a synopsis of the Rids- way company's answer in the Sloan damage suit, as sent out from New York:
 'sThe Ridgway company has filed in the federal district court, it's answer in a libel suit brought against it by Richard E. Sloan, former governor oi Arizona, on account of certain state ments contained in an article entitled Uncle Sam, Lawbreaker."
 The company admits the publication but denies that the article was puh- lished wantonly. maliciously. or uu- lawfully. It denies also that former Governor Sloan has always enjoyed 8 good reputation, personally or as a lawyer. It says that he has mad almost continuously held public office by appointment and not by election and that from 1889 10 1904 and from lS97 to to 1900 he was associate judge of the supreme court Of the territory of Arizona and from May 1, 1906 10 February 10, l912, he was governor of the territory of Arizona and from August 27, 1912, to the date of the United States district judge for Ari- zona.
 During these periods 1t is alleged that the only practice of law in which < he was engaged was coincidentaily with the performance of the duties Of judge or governor. and that his rep utation, professionally, officially and personally, has been and is most no tOriously bad!
 2 Consequently t is contended thu publication of the article cannot hayt damaged the plainti'f reputation fo' integrity, honestly and impartiality and so it is asked that the suit bs dismissed.

A MOTHER AND HER BOY.

Secretary Of the Navy Daniels
Is evidently imbued with the idea
Ihat-~A boys best friend is his
smother" Every true son of a
good mother will subscribe to that
sentiment. It is the living truth
written in letters Of gold. The
boy who does not love and revere
his mother is unworthy to bear
her name. When this cruel olo
world frowns upon and prison
walls stare him in the face, there
IS still hope for deliverance
through the avenue of a mothers
prayers. She gives her life for
her children, rejoicing with them
an their pleasures and deploring
y%isitations of sorrow and disap-
pOintment. The beautiful life of
a devoted, consecrated mother
should serve to inspire every true
man to exert an influence for good
I'M the world. Secretary Daniels
has the proper conception of a
love. Recently in a
speech before the people Of his
home town celebrating his birth
Day, Mr. Daniels paid this tribute
90 the best friend he ever had:
All that I am, if there is any
worth in me, I owe to my mother.

That the appointment to any dis

Henry Nh F1agler, who died in
Florida the other day, had a re-
cord for material achievement
worthy of the highest praise. But
before he is held up to the youth
OF the country as an example and
an inspiration, it is well to remem-
Der that he is the man who divorc-
ed his insane wife for no reason
except that she was insane, and
married another woman. In.order
to get the divorce from the poor
woman whom he had solemnly
covenanted to love and cherish
but whom he deserted in affection,
he had to get a special act passed
by the Florida Legislature. This
he was able to do by reason of his
large investments in that State,
which gave him the necessary in
fuence. -Statesville Landmark.
After all, Mr.. Flagler was a
sorry sort of a man, if it be true
that he divorced his first wife on
account of her affection and mar
ried another woman.

Such an institution out in the
mountains will be a great help to
boys and girls who cannot attend
high-priced institutions. There
are three great money crops, es-
pecially adapted to that portion of
North Carolina. Apples, Irish po-
tatoes and celery if properly cul-
tivated will make the people rich.
Nowhere in the east is the soil and
climate better suited to apples and
Irish potatoes than Western North
Carolina. By spraying the trees,
apples may be grown equal to the
best grown in any State. Then
potatoes should be exported by the
car load from those mountain
counties. The half shaded rich
lands and mountain coveS are ad-
mirably suited to the growth of
celery which is, superior to the
stringy stuff imported from the
northwest. Ten thousand punches
of celery may be grown on an acre
of land. 1t is these small indus

MAKING HASTE SLOWLY.

Senator Simmons believes that
1t is better to be safe than to be
sorry and seeks all possible infor-
nation that may assist his COM
mittee in considering the tariff
bill. The Senator confers fire.
quently with President Wilson,
Leader Underwood and others
capable of throwing light upon the
question. He believes in making
haste slowly, rather than taking
chances on injuring his party and
the business interests of the coun-
try, by pressing the fight to an
early conclusion without giving
due consideration to every item in
the bill.
In. his efforts to produce an
equitable measure Senator Sim
mons is showing a commendable
spirit, much to the qualification of
his friends and the chagrin of
those who sought to traduce him
last year. Recently after a con-
ference with the President the
Senator announced that the pro-
posed S per cent. differential on
imports in American owned or
controlled vessels would be drop
ped from the Underwood bill in
the Senate, on account of protests
from foreign nations, and that the
objections of foreign nations to
the clause to compel foreign mer-
chants to submit their books to an
American agent in cases of disput-
ed valuation would be respected.
Both the President and Secretary
Bryan, of the State Department
upheld this view.
IL is IufCner reported thaC n
President has agreed with Sena-
tor Williams and Senator Sim
mons that raw materials and their
products in the agricultural sched-
ule should be equalized in the
tariff bill instead of placing raw
products on the dutiable list and
making meats and -four free. The
cotton schedule will, also, be re-
wised and a number of inequalities
removed. A get together sentiment
predominates in this tariff-making
affair and it is a mighty healthy
for the Democracy and the
country. s

Mr.. 3. J. Justice declares in a

special session of the Legislature.
No, no, Mr.. Watts could not hold
two positions at the same time.
If the President should appoint
him collector he would have to re-
sign as Senator and his influence
as a legislator would thus be cir
cumscribed. Any way, the sue
