Ex-speaker Joe Cannon in a speach in the House last week said, “1 would not meet my own approval or maintain my-seli re spect if I attempted to an-ay sec tion against section industry against mdustry and farmer against factory men, and rail road men, so I will vote agamst this bill, from the broad stand point that it is opposed to the hest interest of them all.’’ Well “aint” this going it some. This old reprobate, this man ^ho has devoted his life to the in terest of a favored few, who Vma fought every battle in the interest of the class of special priveleges, helping them to pile up immense fortunes to the pre- dudice and injury to the great toiling masses. Now to talk about arraying anything or any body against the farmer. It is imposible to conceive of worse hypocritical bosh. There will be some strange doings in this old world when a man of Can nons type can honestly strive for the betterment of the farmer, or any other man who toils with with his bands for a living, Joe will do for a prize member in the classing^of frauds,that is all. Senator Simmons followed his sen atorial defy by a personal visit to Raleij^h, but it is related that he did not call on Governor Kitchin. Why should he have called? If there is one thing Simmons is not, it is a hjrpocrit. The public would have looked upon his call on his prospective opponent as an act of hyp)ocrisy.—Charlotte Chronicle. But then why shouldn’t he have called. Is Simmons so glued to the senatorial seat that he regards it as a personal affront for any other man to be mentioned for it. If that is the present condition isn’t it about time he mtite being pried loose, no matter how sound or unsound his tariff views may be?,—Raleigh Times. Is not the Times a little pre vious in its evident desire to priticise, and adversely comment upon Mr. Simmons. The para graph quoted above indicates an^ animus hardly in keeping with fair journalism. Nothing in its text warrants it If the Times is seeking an opportunity to cri ticise it should wait until one comes that wiU justify it, then get out its pry, and go to pry ing if it wants too. reputable printer might find em ployment if his services were needed. The printers Union wanted to exclude from the of fice employment all but union men. Because the owner of th6 Times maintained his right to employ who ever he saw fit, Mis office was blown up and two hundred thousand dollars worth of property was destroyed, and more than a score of people kill- ed| After six or more months of diligent work by the shrewedest detectives McNamara is arrest ed, and before any facts relative to his arrest and guilt are layed before a competent court of en quiry, the head of the great labor Unions is denouncing the arrest as unjust, as cruel and ap- pressive. If McNamara is guilty he should be hanged, and that in the briefest time, if he is ino- cent there will be no great difi- culty to establish his inocence and when done he should be liberated. Such utterances as is attributed to Gompers can in no sense bring about the harm ony between capital and labor so desirable for the mutual in terest of both classes. “Overcoiniiig Difficulties’ The following kind words appeared in last Friday mornings Greensboro News, for which we feel very grateful '‘In this weeks issue of the Mebane Leader Editor J. 0. Foy, announces that he has purchased the plant and now owns it and the paoer. He is entitled to congratulations on his achievement. He started the paper a Uttle over two years ago. In the course of a half column editorial statement of the purchase, he says: “The plant had previously been pur chased through us by 23 of Mebane’s citizens, who held the title to the plant up to the past week, when we negoti ated the purchase, and bought the en tire plant, and hold the bill of sale for the same. The office is one of the best county offices in the state, thoroughly and completely equipped with type, presses, etc. We have worked hard and given the closest attention to our business. Mebane is a small place, and to make a newspaper live here under rather adverse conditions has been a herculean task. There has been ac corded to us a most liberal support by a number of our merchants and some manufactures. These have stood by ua loyally, encouraging us, and giving ua evidences of an appreciation of our efforts in their midst.” Editor Foy has a right to feel proud of his success. The best conditions in small towns are not always fayorable to the development of newspaper prop erty, and when a man does succeeed, in two years, in doing what Brother Foy has done, it is worthy of notice and encouragement We trust the Leader will meet with even greater success and be and remain a power for {700d in the building up, maintenance and support of its community along all worthy lines, educationally, morally and industrially. Cooperation between editor and people is the key to that desired d^ee of success. AN IMPORTANT ARREST. John J. McNamara secretary of the International Associaton of Bridge Buildera who was ar rested last Saturday at Indian- . appolis and is now held upon the .charge of having dinamited and desiaroyed the Los Angles Times billing a number of people, and Attempting the destruction of other property declares his ino- cense, and so does Samuel Gom pers, of the labor unions, but the declaration of neither of these men in this matter worth anything. McNarma the man charged with a crime and it was about as fiendish as any you read about, and Samuel Gompers is a high saleried of ficial in the employ of the labor union, paid just as an attorney would be to defend its members guilty» or not guilty. We wish it distinctly under stood that we feel the sincerest sympathy for labor in its strug gles for just, and fair treatment at the hands of the employes. ;oWe realize that in many instances labor suffers serious injustice that it is oppressed and does not , receive adequate pay for the labor given, but we are eternal op- . posed to dinamite as a rtmedy for its wrongs. .l^eLos Angeles Times had m^n^ain^ for ^n open iind office in whic^ NO NEVER DID. But did you ever know a renomina tion denied to an honest judge because of an honest mistake? Some judires have failed of renomination because more pK>pular men contested the nomi nation, but our eight-year opportunity of Rcall has not shown that such a fea ture would deny the State a great judge or do injustice to such a Judge. —Raleigh Observer. No sir, never did, but there is some other things we have known, wc have known some judges that have been nominat ed, and relected from time *x) time, because the shrewedest cri minal lawyers of the state need ed them, and not because they were honest, conscientious men, and were entitled to be trusted to deal justice between man, and man. The judges to try cases for rich and influential criminals, belongs to this class. NEW Constantly arriving, embracing the latest in spring clothing for men, and boys.

OEMANOS PROBE OF SNOBBERY AT NAVAL ACADEMY Representative From ^Indiana Threatens to Take Beers Case.to , Congress. ilie aUegfad snobbery at the Naval A.cademy at AnnapoUp, as a result of which it is claimed that Miss Mary H. Beers, a narse in an of9cer*a home, was pveh to understand that her presence was not desired at the Aca demy hops, is to be brougrht to the attention of Congress unless the Nayy Department ia able to furnish a sat isfactory Mplanation. Representative Korbly, an Indiana Democrat, has written Secretary Meyer asking that he investigate that peculiar aodal system' at the Academy that maices unwelcome at a social function an estimable and talented girl who happens to be earning her own living. Harsh Criticism. If tiie Secretary is unable to justify or deny the alleged occurrence, Mr. Koibly will bring the Beers affair to the official attention of the House it self and ao investigation of the Arade- my, its general conduct .and its social life probably will be ordered. Representative Korbly made public a letter which he received from former Attomer General W. H. H. Miller, who serv^ under the Harrison Ad ministration, and who harshly criticea the snobbery said to exist at the Naval Academy. Speaking of the reports of the Beers incidmt, the former Attorney General aays: **I want to commend you for your ac tion touching upon the recent alleged snobbery at the Naval Academy, where if reports are correct, an attempt has been made to exclude from social life there a re^iectable young woman be cause she was earning her own living. No Money From Congress. **lf this is true, I think that the oc curence c-annot be rebuked too severe ly and it seems to me that not another d&Uar ahouki be voted by Congress for the 8upp»t of that institution uutil every man who has a party to the con- tejnptible business, if connected with the Navy, is sent off to sea duty. **If the facta areas reported, nothing that ia so contemptible has occured in our public service, within my recollec tion. Mr. Korbly, who is now awaiting the reply of the Secretary of the Navy be fore be takes any further action, caid today: **I presume that Secretary Myer is How investigating this matter and that I will hear from him within a short time. The Secretary, no doubt, feels embarassed over the incident. If 1 do not get a satisfactory explanation, I shall feel obliged to refer to the matter 'on tiie floor of the House and probably will ask an investigation. M* B, MILES, Mebane. N. C. USTEN LADIES!

Then said to the man his Angel: **Thott wavering, witless soul. Back to the ranks! What matter To win or to lose the whole. **As judged by the little judges Who harken not well, nor see?
