 GOVERNOR HUNT IN PRESCOTT Governor Hunt spent the day yes terday in Prescott where he opened the -\oI CIei II AilHoId LdII' peIHS Ield there the first three days of this week with an address. He will remain in the city no longer than necessary to be pres ent for governors day returning here in time to get back at the duties of his office which are at the present time very pressing. The reports of the as sociated press that Governor Hunt would deliver an address at the Tulsa dry farm congress, are misinforming, since it will be impossible for him to attend the Oklahoma fair and at the 1 same time the Arizona show. and the governor prefers to stay at home on this occasion.

Cotton Prices i'm Charlotte.
Charlotte Chronicle.

Charlotte Chronicle.
Il would like to ssk the cotton buy
ers of Charlotte why they can't pay
as much for cotton as the other mar
kets," writes a man from the country
to the editor of The Chronicle. 81
carried a bale to Charlotte last Sat-
urday weighing 596 pounds" he con-
tinues, and got 13 1-2 cents, which
brought me $80.45. One of my neigh
bors carried cotton to Concord the
same day and got IA IA cents for his.
Now the difference would be 1897 i'm
favor Of Concord. The greater part
of the crop in the eastern part of
the country is going to Concord"
That's the point. The farmers are
not going to come to Charlotte Just
for the sake of the name of selling
their cotton here when they can get
better prices at other points If
Charlotte offered only equal prices
with Concord or Monroe or Gastonia
or Lancaster, the farmers would pre-
fer coming here because of the diver
sity of stores from which they could
make their selection of goods, but SO
long as higher prices are available at
other points they are going to take
their cotton there and we have no
right to censure them. 1t would not
be SO bad after all were it not for the
fact that where their cotton is sold
| there also is their trading done.

COL. GAILLARD SERIOUSLY I'LL.

Washington, Oct. 6.--That Col.
David DUB. Gaillard of South Caro-
lima is dangerously i'll at Johns Hop
kins university hospital in Baltimore
was the story that reached Washing
ton oday and this seems to be borne
out in the following printed in to-
days Washington Star:
"Col. David DUB. Gaillard, engi-
neer corps, U. S. A., now patient in
Johns Hopkins hospital in Baltimore,
is in a precarious condition, as the
result Of an operation performed
some time ago in Boston. 1t is fear
ed that he can not recover.
"Col. Gaillard was one Of the as

THOUSANDS HEAR GREAT COM
MONER AT KINGS NOUN
TAIN CELEBRATION.
Victory of Peace is Subject Which
Secretary Chooses for His Address
OH Historic battle-ground.

Kings Mountain, n. c., Oct. T.
Decidedly more people than have
ever been seen in Kings Mountain
since the memorable battle of 1873
years ago today gathered to celebrate
the anniversary. Various estimates
have been heard as to the number
in attendance, but it is certain that
there were not less than 10000 peo-
pie here throughout the day and it is
probable that 10000 heard an ad-
dress of William Jennings Bryan, Sec
retary of State. Mr.. Bryan was the
drawing card of the day, and his
presence here was responsible for
the large number in attendance. The
failure of Gov. Hooper of Tennessee
and Gov. Craig of North Carolina to
be present caused no little dissapoint-
ment, as did the absence of Senator
Lee S. Overman and Secretary
Josephus Daniels.
The early part of the days exer-
cises began with the parade over one
mile in length, headed by the Seven
teenth infantry band, U. S. A., of Fort
Mcpherson, Ga, followed by a car
riage in which was seated Mr.. Bryan,
escorted by E. Y. Webb, congressman
from the ninth congressional district
of North Carolina. Immediately fol-
lowing the carriage bearing the secre-
tary came the floats representing the
Ii original colonies, In each of which
was a young woman representing a
colony. North Carolina led with her
sister State, South Carolina, immedi-
ately in the rear. Behind these came
the floats representing the present SO
States, filled with little girls gaily
attired in the national colors.
AT the grounds the ceremonies
were most interesting. The speaker
Of the day was introduced by Yates
Webb, while Max Gardner presided
as master of ceremonies. The secre-
tary was in excellent form and de-
livered a splendid address, rnade up
OF several of his best efforts together
with much original matter. 1t was
pronounced by all who heard it to be
a gem of OratOry and logic. One OF
the most striking statements made by
the secretary of state was his pre-
diction that ut an early date the
present system of nominating candi-
dates for president by convention
would be abolished and the system
similar to the ''dircct election of SEN

right to prevent of sale of contra
band liquors, or hamper it, by any
means allowed by the constitution"
*** IF it be true that the consump-
ton of contraband liquors is fraught
with peculiar danger to the health
and morals of our citizens, then the
State and city have the right to
hamper the sale of it. 1t has the
right to forbid the sale, the purchase,
the storing or even the possession and
transportation of it. 1t may forbid
them all. 1t may forbid one and not
the other. The fault may be with the
writer of this opinion, but / cannot

The case from Anderson is in the

court and, in effect, frees the Ander-
son negro from the charge.

that point he went westward into the
state of Sonora. Anumber of his
lieutenants, including Jesus Carran-
"a, his brother and second in COM
mand, remained In Piedras Negras
until a few days ago, when they left,
presumably to direct the troops in
battle at Peyotes, 25 miles south OF
the border, where 1t was announced
a determined effort would be made to
check the northward advance of the
government army. However, no re-
sistance was offered at Peyotes and
from that point to Piedras Negras the
federals met with no opposition.

IMPORTANT LIQUOR DECISION.
NO CRIME TO ACT AS GO-BE.
TWEEN FOR BLIND TIGERS.
Supreme Court Rcvcrses Decision of
Circuit Court and Holds That the
Person Who Purchases, Liquor from
Blind Tiger and Delivers it to An.
other Violates no Law-Juseice
Fraser DiSScnts

Columbia, Oct. S.-The Supreme
Court today decided a vital question
with regard to the liquor traffic, but
Justice T. B. Fraser, of Sumter, dis
sented from the decision, which de-
clares the person acting as the agent
for the purchase of whiskey is not
guilty of violating the law against
transporting contraband liquors.
Milton FAINT, negro in Anderson,
was sent by two white men to buy
liquor from someone he knew was
illegally dealing in whiskey. FAINT
was found guilty of transporting con-
traband liquor and the circuit court
held that he bought from one he
knew was not authorized to sell and
was the contraband agent of the pur-
chasers.
Justice Hydrick, rendering the ma
jority decision, which is concurred in
by Chief Justice Gary and Justice
Watts, holds that the statutes do not
penalize the purchase of liquor and
there is no inhibition against buying,
although maybe, from a. moral in
standpoint, one is sometimes as
guilty as the other.
Briefly, the majority decision holds
that one who acts in good faith as the
agent of the purchaser and not as a
guilty participant with seller cannot
be held for transporting contraband
liquor; that the holding guilty of one
transporting in such case as Milton
FAINT would bring buyer as we'll as
seller under condemnation and de-
prive the State Of the right to COM
pei the buyer to testify against the
seller

marched away with the approach of
the government army. They were not
pursed. the victorious troops content
ing themselves with q search of the
city for rebels who might be in hid

The federals were first sighted
shortly after noon on hill south of
the city. Cannon were planted and
when all was made ready for a bat
tie, troops of cavalry was sent over
the hill at gallop and into the city.
In the meantime the handful of con-
stitutionalists had shouldered their
arms and marched away. The feder-
ais. encountering no resistance,
marched into Piedras Negras through
the Alameda to the deserted consti-
tutionalist administration building
and took possession. Tonight the
city is policed by troops. and so far
there has been no iooting.

Officially complimenting the Boy

week, Secretary of War Garrison
this afternoon sent kilograms to
Ccout Commissioner E. S. Martin,

and State officials stationed there

youths.
At one time, Secretary Garrison
said, there were $1,000 veterans to
be cared for on the camping
ground. The Boy Scouts rendered
immeasurable assistance to the
soldiers and civilian officers of the
camp. he said.
The kilograms were sent to Maj.

State Constabulary; E. S. Martin,

trict, and Lieut.. Col. A. E. Brad
