The railway commission bill fail ed in the Senate yesterday, simply, solely, entirely and exclusively be cause of the opposition to it. It might as well be accepted as a set tle fact that the failure of the bill was not due to its demerits. There ha'nt been a legislature in North Carolina in ten years that has had pluck enoughHo pass any kind of a railroad commission bill, to which the railroad people objected. There is the truth in a verv small nut sell. Mr. Cowles is a North Carolinian and Mr. Cowles is a Democrat, ac cording to the usual stiindard, at all events he is supposed to be one, as he fought that way during the war and now represents a democratic constituency. Mr. Randall, acoqrd ing to some of the latter day saints, is a Republican, and yet Mr. Cowles and Mr. Randall are politically as thick as two in a bed and Mr. Ran dall is to introduce Mr. Cowles1 bill to relieve us of the infernal revenue fraud. r- Chronic nasal catarrh guaran teed cure Dr. Sage's Catarrh Rem edy.
