About the GreenvilIe lncident.-I


the course of column editorial dis
cussion of the ugly incidents at Green
vile. last Saturday, the Piedmont
says:
But, regardless of any impropriety
N the way in which Mr.. Norwood s
question was asked Governor BleaSe
was unjustilied in his response, no
matter how much that reply may
have been in keeping with the custom
so many public speakers indulge in
of insulting those who ask them
questions. We presume that Cover
nor EleaSe did not know who asked
the question as Mr.. Norwood was sit
tin to the side and rear of the speak
er But the asking of the question
did not make the man, as Blease
called him, "a dirty contemplate cow
ard" He could have replied in a
more dignilied and effective way and
Il way less calculated to start some
thing which might end in bloodShed
and death.
Again. the blame shifts. Mr. Nor
wood could have afforded to tempor-
arily or permanently ignored the
insult. but he was not justified in
using. nor is any man ever justified
in using, the epithct that he applied
to the governor. Had what he said
been heard by others than the few
closest To him, his curse being drown
ed in the uproar. bloodShed would
have been inevitable. Blease may be
even Il worse coward than his bitter
est enemies aver they believe him,
but he would have had to have been
held had he heard it, Had hands been
laid on him, the crowd would have
torn the stand down and there would
have been promiscuous fighting and
shooting.
Crccnvillc should thank God that
the incident passed off with no worse
features than attended ii.

Discriminating Against Southern


Ports.-Edwin j. Berwind, of New
York. director and officer in many rail-
way companies, steamship lines and
coal companies, was charged yesterday
by b. L. Dulaney. Of Bristol, Tenn.
with chief responsibility for the failure
of the Southern railway To permit
Charleston, Fernandina, Jacksonville
and Savannah to develop into import
ant coal shipping ports. Mr.. Dulaney
was the only witness heard yesterday
by the senate sub committee which is
investigating the charge that the Nor
gan interests are controlling the coal
rates of the Southern railway and de-
veloping the Pennsylvania coal fields
and ports between Norfolk and New
York to the detriment Of ports Of the
south. Through system Of interlock
ing directorates, Mr.. Dulaney charges
the coal trust has been able to con-
troll the lines tapping important coal
fields in Tennessee, Virginia and Ken
lucky and to impose freight rates
which make it impossible for coal from
those fields to move to Charleston and
other southern ports which now are
supplied with Pennsylvania or West
Virginia coal shipped by water from
Norfolk. Washington dispatch.

THE PASS

The Charlotte Observer, in speaking
of "the pass, says editoria,ly:
'The Raleigh News and Observer is
not hospitable to the efforts of Sec
retary Sheriff. Of the North Carloina
Press Association to have the inter
state bars against railroad passes lei
down. On the contrary, that paper
comes out fat-footed against passes
for editors under any circumstances.
Our Raleigh contemporary regards
the free pass" as "an unmitigated
evil and advises the next legislature
to put an end to it in this State.
Colonel Britton takes too rank hold.
.-4As4lff passes are not free" passes.
There is not an editor in North Car
olina that does not give advertising
space equivalent to the value of the
pass he uses. We take it that what
the Raleigh editor is driving at is the
principal of the pass, but even that is
open to argument No publisher has
any call to regard the pass ne bar
gains for as a favor. He gives val
ne received for it and there is no
condition attached to its issuance or
use by which his hands would be tied
in case he should find occasion to
Jump on" the railroads. 1t is a
different proposition from the old
days when any editor who so desired
could stuff his pockets with railroad
passes, and under circumstances
which necessarily carried a sense OF
obligation Under the present system
of newspaper transportation it is a
business proprosition as legitimate as
merchandising over the counter. The
Observer does not believe in putting
the law on the pass 1t should be op-
tional with a publisher whether he
should accept a pass in exchange for
advertising space, or pay his way
when he rides and take whatever of
railroad advertising may come his way
in cash"
We have always looked upon this as
a business matter between the news
papers and the railroads. There seem
to he editors whose consciences will
not permit them to accept transporta-
ton in exchange for advertising.
That is all very we'll and good, but
they should not attempt to regulate
the consciences of their brethren
There is such g thing as carrying toe
far the doctrine of being your
brothers keeper, especially in pure
ly business matter The Charlotte
Observer has put the matter strongly
