MAJORITY SHOULD RULE.

The opinion is freely expressed in
Concord and elsewhere that CASTOR
Means will be acquitted or the jury
will fail to agree. The prophecy is
based chiefly upon the sentiment
aroused by the activity OF the New
York assistant district attorney
John r. Dooling, who attempted to
inject New York policies into the
courts OF North Carolina. and whose
activity seemingly has reacted in
favor OF the defendant. We suppose
that we are sufficiently removed
from the scene of action to ls... d,
without fear of contempt proceed
ings, that Dooling's connection with
the case is a mistake. 1t is not ex-
actly sectional issue that has been
raised, albeit he comes down from
New York to prosecute a citizen of
that the North Carolina courts are
not fully qualified to dispense JUS
tice. We believe that sectional pre-
judice has disappeared from the
South. but 1t is nevertheless a fact
that the tactics employed by the
New York lawyer has arrayed pub
lie sentiment against the prosecu-
ton. and people well-informed as to
the progress of the trial expect no
more than a mistrial or acquittal.
In fact, the merits of the case is not
being talked In Concord now, hav-
ing given place to denunciation and
criticism Of the New York lawyer
and his methods of examination and
cross-examination.
We have never believed that
Means would be convicted. althc ugh
we have an open mind as to his
guilt. Courts are not quick to con.
wet a man Of the social and business
standing of the Means family In

thing else fail the defendant. he
may yet rely upon that serious de

MAYOR JONES, THE TERROR.

Mayor Charles d. Jones issued on
the eve of the election this week a
campaign document setting forth his
position on public questions, which
is OF more than passing interest. He
does not mince words in saying that
II make no appeal to the lawless ele-
ment for their support"
BY that policy during his ad-
ministration. Mr.. Jones has per-
haps made enemies for him
self, but he has headed an admin
istration that has stood for law and
order, a clean town, healthier. better
lighted, better policed and better
protected against fire.
Those who would prefer to see
blind tigers. gambling dens and
worse places have greater freedom
in our midst" Mr.. Jones told the
voters, "do not need me-" Mayor
Jones is a terror" to this class and
His fearlessness, his initiative and
his conservatism in administering
the towns affairs during the past
two years. has struck a terror in the
hearts of the lawless and put them
on good bahavior
Mr.. Jones says in his statement
that when the present administra-
tion went into office the city was in
debt near $2S.0OO, in addition to the
bonded Indebtedness. This has been
reduced not less than $4,000 during
the past two years in the face of
constantly soaring costs of con-
Quoting municipal affairs and with
out impairment OF the efficiency of
government. Besides this, the city
has purchased and paid for equip
ment to the value of $4,000.
That is a record that should not
be overlooked.
