ItST. - Salisbury, N, C;, July, 31st, '07 The Wachovia Loan and Trust Co.. can now make claim to the phrase: "Best by test.' No one need expect to be con nected with a grab game long without his reputation finding its proper level. nyone connected with a graft today need not expect to inspire confidence in a meritorious enter prise tomorrow. In an answer to a New York World telegram of inquiry, Sen ator Overman says that State's rights aud ' the tariff should be two ot the planks in the next na tional Democratic platform. mere are some pretty mean people on this globe, it should become our duty to point' out some of them we might have some diffi culty in making proper classifica tions, but among the ineanest and most contemptable, we would be sure to place the peanut politici ans and optimists, or rather the professional hypocrits, right up in front. UILLERTOWN. v July 27. Having some fine corn and cot ton growing weather along now. Hope the good seasons will con tinue." '- Most of the wheat of our com munity is now threshed. There is some few that have not thresh ed yet. W. A. Kirk is erecting himself a new straw shed.- Guess he means to keep his straw dry. As we noticed in Brown Eye's squibs, there was a lot of visiting done in her community. Ha ! there must be something doing. We are told that the largest oak tree in Morgan township stands at the Old Whitson Miller place. It measures about seven fest at the ground and its branches extend over one hundred feet from its body. You don't find many of "dem kind er trees in dis conn. try." I Jos. W. Miller is attending con ference this week at St. Martin's E. L. Church, Efird's Mills, N, C. j. uai. jpraiey tinea a big copperhead the other week that measured five feet six inches from tip to tip. L. W . Miller is building a log cart for the derrick haulers of Whitney. Boys, I tell you H'b a mud hole masher. we naa tne pleasure or seeing the "Baby" outfit thresh the oth er day. She certainly does fine work. You need not be afraid of her for she does the work nicely. Didn't know that I had been working for any company, as Bro. Southerner said Something abot t me bringing in my time. Guess he didn't mean that, did you Bro? Plenty of rabbits around here now, for we heard an old lady say that she saw 30 in one gang. It's a new thing for rabbits to go in gangs. . Messrs. Birtie and Freda Miller visited their sister, Mrs. Geo. W. Miller, of Richfield this. week. Mrs. W. A. Kirk says she plant ed seven Irish potatoes and raised two .bushels from them. That's pretty good, isn't it? Let's hear from you Bro. and see if you can beat that. Mesdames. Jos, A. and Jos. W, Miller have bought a new washing machine. Guess they will have clean clothes now. Miss Freda Kirk and Brother Mack visited their brother, Eugene Kirk, . of Whitney, this week. Beans, roasting ears, blackberry pie, cucumbers and tomatoes are al we eat along now. Uncle Joss. There was an eclipse of the moon last Wednesday, but it at tracted little attention here.

GLEHU ADDRESSES THE PUBLIC. - - . - -r (Carolina Ua Dafawe 4fca otA -TrAiikfa -lit m the Law Is Supreme ind Must be - Complied With. - The Charlotte b ser ver's nwaswwv w-..w - m Raleigh correspondent of Monday says:" - Governor Glenn today issued the following letter to the publio, in compliance with his statement made last Saturday afternoon and the argument between him self and the, Southern, and At lantic Coast Line Railways: "; . "I he General Assembly at its last session passed a law regulajb ing passenger rate, the same trgo into effect July 1st, 1907 . Before that date the Southsfn and At lantic CoaBt Line Railway through the Circuit Court ' of the United States enjoined the corporation commission and the Attorney General from publishing and put- ing the fixed rates into effect. Not believing that the Circuit Court judge ifi an equity suit by enjoining the corporation com mittee and the Attorney General ould prevent a self-acting law from going into effect, I com menced to prepare a letter to the judges and an address to the peo ple, when on the 8th of July, 1907, the Hon, B. F. Long, one of the ablest and most conscientious judges in the State; of his own motion hastened action by boldly and ably oharging the grand jury of Wake county that it was its duty to immediately indict the railroads for violating the rate law. At once I assured Judge Long of my hearty approval of his righteous stand and of my in tention to assist him in- uphold ing the law. My letter was for- warded JLo th other judges and in- dictmeuts were made in Wake and other counties. Many penal ty suits were also commenced againse the railroads by private individuals. The railroad then applied to tne Circuit Court to enjoin all private persons from bringing penalty suits, and to take the persons arrested and convicted in the State court from the officers of that court by writ of habeas corpus to the Federal court. "Believing this was not war ranted by the constition and laws, I resisted it in every legal way ; directed tne State s attorney to appeal from such action, and re quested the State' court to con tinue to entorce the law. This brought about a direct conflict be tween the State and Federal court, a matter that I regretted but could not under. jmy oath avoid. At this crisis, Assistant Attorney General Sanford, repre senting the Department of Justice at Washington, came to see me to try io adjust all differences. told him that under the constitn tion I could not and would not attempt to annul the State law, but if the railroads would obey the law and let it go immediately into effect, all minor details could be adjusted. At his request put my ultimatum in writing and published it. Nothing was to be done unless the railroads immedi ately recognized the law. After some debate and arrangement of minor details th9 railroads ac cepted the State's proposition, the rate law to become effective August 8th (a few days being given to change tickets, etc.,) certain cases to be carried to the Supreme court for final determi nation, and in the meantime the railroads to request the circuit judge to commence no contempt proceedings and I to ask the judges and solicitors to com mence no more indictments and nol pros those on their docket, ex cept tho two from which appeals were taken, and to request the people not to commence any penalty suits. In compliance with my agreement, the law now bing fully recognized and obeye by the railroad, I do most earnest ly request all judges J4?or-8t7Tp--aU new indictments and to nol pros those on the docket and also beg the people to briug no more pen alty suits to the end that peso and harmony shall again prevail between the railroads and the peo ple. You cannot injure the rail roads without injuring the State. When they obey the law they are entitled to protection. The law is now . in full force and no one should therefore deBire to violate the agreement made between the State and the railroad, and X confi dently ask and expect that said agreement be carried out and A be strictly complied with. The Jaw is supreme. Let all obey it." In addition to the Southern &j Atlantic-Coast Line Railways, th e &. North Western rail- way and the Louisvil le &- Nash ville rai 1 way ref used - to robey ; the new - rate law.:-. Governor Glenn today sent the following telegrams to L. D.-NieholsV superintendent of the Carolina .& North Western at Chester, S.- G : "The South ern and Atlantic' Coast Line Rail- wa s have agreed that the fate of 21-4 centsfixed by the Legislature go. into -effect - August 8th. Will your, re&dlsd comply and adopt thef ate m that day 7 riease. an swer to the end that if you refuse to recognize the law I may -take such action as to me seems right." Governor Glenn this afternoon received the following telegram Lfrom L. D. Nichols, of the Caro Una and North Western Railway" "Your wire iust to band; Do not feel authorized to reply and so have taken up -matter with . our president. Hope you will take no action until you bear from him," Governor Glenn said this meant a back down and that this road is going to put the new rate into ef fect. He added: "Thev have all got to come to my way of think ing, -1 have received telegrams of congratulations from all parts of the country many from leading citizens, jurist and politicians. do not feel inclined to give their names to the public." The Southern Railway Com pany, in compliance witn tne agreement made by its chief at torneys and Governor Glenn, has filed in the Superior court here notice of appeal from judgment of that court fining the road $30,000 for selling tickets above the new rate, a $60,000 snpersedas bond and one to cover costs being filed.
