ANSWERS

1. In 1870 the North Carolina Su-
preme Court handed down such an
opinion.
q. Judge William CASTOR, of New
Bern, senator from Craven county to
the legislature of 1918, was the au-
thor of the bill that created the Su-
preme Court. The court was severely
criticized until 1888 the legislature
justice. The high respect the people
had for Judge CASTOR reflected upon
the court, and criticism died down.
3. Burke County subscribed for
$4,000 worth of stock with the under
standing that the road would be built
to Morganton. To build the road by
Newton engineers claimed would cost
$176,887 more than the route which
lead three miles to the north of New
ton, and would result in the road lack
ing twenty miles of reaching Morgan
ton. Burke held up her subscription.
The directors put the matter up to
the legislature which provided for
MOrganton TO be made the western
terminus and for spur line to be
built into Newton.
4. Academies And schools began to
spring up Immediately following the
Revolutionary War which did away
with British restrictions on charters
for schools. Between the return of
peace in 1888 and 1860 the legislature
issued charters to 321 academies. The
three leading counties were Edge
ombe, IS; Robson, -; Wake, H.
5. Governor Craig was born in Ber-
tie county August 16, 1860, and died
in Buncombe county on June 9, 1924.
He lacked two months and seven days
of being Cd years old

30, 1885 the sale of fishing licenses

Stunning, what they cannot obtain by
direct information.
1t Is impossible that Bishop Michael
J. Gallagher, of Detroit, is arriving
on the S. S. Rex on Saturday" He
was IN Buffalo, last Wednesday, de-
hvering the funeral grafton over the
body of the late Bishop Turner of
Buffalo. Cardinal Hayes and numer-
Gus Bishops and prelates were present
In the overcrowded cathedral of st.
Joseph. in Buffalo.
IN the funeral address, speaking of
the zeal and charity OF Buffalos late
Bishop, Bishop Gallagher mentioned
the fact that Bishop Turner had writ
ten to Bishop Gallagher, II beg you
to permit no clamor to persuade you
to interfere with the far-reaching
work which Father Coughlin is do
ing
Father Coughlin, some months ago,
stated to his audience that Bishop
Gallagher wishes it to be known that
he, the Bishop, is backing Father
Coughlin in this crusade for justice.
Bishop Gallagher is more of fight
ing champion than is Father Cough
lin.
The Roman Catholic Church is the
most smoothly running society in the
world, though by far the largest.
There are but three mainsprings to
all the Churchs activities, and these
mainSpringS are charity, truth, and
justice. Rome does not issue re-
primands to a Priest in the discharge
of his duty. Any mistake which
Father Coughlin might make, would
be settled very understandingly be-
tween him and the Bishop. Rome ex-
cruises the most fatherly affection
and charity towards her Bishops; and
the Bishops show the same Christ
like regard to the pastors and Priests.
There is no question of his receiving
a reprimand from Rome. Such a re-
primand would be a reflection upon
the Bishop. He is not acting chiefly
on his own initiative. We have the
report that Bishop Gallagher merely
remarked it was unfortunate that
Father Coughlin spoke of the Presi-
dent as a liar in consequence of the
Presidents having failed to keep three
or four promises.
It was much easier for Father
Coughlin to discontinue the radio adj
dresses. He is not doing this for his
personal pleasure, but for a restora
ton of a sense of justice to many
bankers and other officials unworthy
of high and sacred trust. Millions of
people have sense enough to appre-
ciate his very fatiguing and unSparing
crusade for more public justice and
for honesty.

en- through the Turkish line at two
points and suddenly appeared in it's
rear. The fact that the Mohamme-
dan population in the area evacuated
by the Turkish army fled in terror
before the Russian advance added to
the indescribably confusion.
Erzinjian had been the scene of the

tinued these until the Russians had

To The Honorable Mayor and City
Council of the City of Henderson:
We the undersigned citizens of
Henderson own property in the vi
entity Of the proposed underpass to
join Charles Street and Garnett
Street, and we feel that said under
pass would greatly reduce the value
of our property, and the traffic turn
ed on Charles Street would endang-
er the lives of our children, and
while we do not oppose the construc-
ton of the underpass at some other
point, we do most earnestly request
that it not be constructed at this
point.
Grading the high school property
for the underpass would greatly mar
the beauty of the property.
One member of the committee for
the high school site stated that the
present location was selected in view
OF the fact that it was not on a high
way. We feel that the opening of an
underpass joining Charles and Gar
nett Streets will eventually be the
means of opening a highway from
Townsville to Louisburg this way
and what could be worse for a high
school. Just think of buses, moving
vans and heavily loaded trucks u.s.
ing the street in front of the high
school for a highway.
