The News and .Observer of Tues day says The Legislature yesterday disposed of the matter of new judges by pas sing he bill to abolish the two crim inal districts, establish four new Su perior court disirictfy and require he judges to hold all needed extra ;terms up to forty weeks in each year without extra pay, except ac tual expenses. The law really im poses very little additional burden on the tax-payers. In salaries the ouly increase is $2,750 each annually for two judges, which is to be re duced by the saviug of the sum here tofore paid for special terms. In come of the counties of the State, the docket is congested be cause the busip,e3j had grown beyoud the capacity of the terms of court allotted to them. With the sixteen disi7Cts every county in the State .can have as many terms of court us may be needed, and in caae there is need of a. special term, it can be held without cost to the county. In mak ing the schedule of courts, the bar ani officers of every county ought to be consulted through the representa tive, and eyry county can be given as many,, terras as it needs. Justice will neither be delayed nor denied to py. v Tb.e Governor will have the ap pointment of four new Superior pourt judges and four new solicitors who will go into office op. the first .day of J ujv. ' It took the farmers of South Car olina a goood while to disccjsr that jthey could raise tobacco and make jhore money out of it than they can put of cotton even 'at ten cents a pound. Now it seems, judging from the following, wtyicfy we clip from the pliarleston News and fCfaurier, that some of them are discovering that they pan make hay and clear more money on it than they can on cotton at ten cents a pound : "A farmer in York county, says the Yeoman,' of Yprkville, was in that town last' Monday with- some fe'xcellent' hay, for winch' he had beeii offered $15 a ton. In response to inquiries he explained that it was cut from native grass, known as vlimbervnir and swamp 'foxtail..' It was cured in the shad?, fthe procpss,' says the Yeoman, 'preserving a beau tiful color" and a delightful ocjor of the fields and meadows;' ."Other particulars of thp product are that this hay can be cut tljree times a yearj sometimes yielding as high as two "tons per acre per cut ting', but generally averaging about three tons fpr the three puttings, making it an extremely profitable , crop. - f'The farmer who exhibited tjje specimen load in Yorkville is 'an en ergetic man, not afraid of work, anc during .July-, August, September anc 'October, with two small mules, ape without'an additional hand, he macj.e $50 worth of hay for jiis wn use and I15Q worth for sale.1" "The number of acres it was cut from is sta'fed, but the Yeoman af firms that it as a pro6table crop, even as "compared with ten-cent cotton." "The carious feature of the mat ter is that when home.-made Lay will not sell for $5 a ton in UhaftSston, it sells for lg a ton in Yorkyille.?? Perhaps this, York county farmer, pa? liaj; sqme of the fanners in Mecklenburg Ppurty are doing withj hay. It is a new; industry in that county, butsomftof th,e frrners there, grow, it now largely, bale, jr, and on ly find r.udy sale for it in Charlotte, ?t lj'P ea toother towns. But the bay-makfpj in this State ar.ft yet quite scarce, considering the, de- mand for hay and, the amount of it SFortc4 from State?, whichl are not any better adapted to grass growing than North Carolina, nor so well.

The color line is not confined to the South now, but is drawn in some of the Western States even more stringently than it is in the Sout, for bore we know how to i in criminate in such matters, but they $ou't up there In commenting upon the move, meut against the negroes in the towns along the Ohio river, which was started some time ago in Indiana, the Philadelphia Tel egraph, a Republican paper, says , 'The river to-'"- noticeably m Indiana, are troubled by a floating colored popula tion, drifting up and down stream dunug the boating season, but settling down to be taken care ot by local charities and correc- .! , - ... ; . L uon aunug tne winter inonius. - - -The' farther pu,a1i r movement spreads the more oppressive ii becomes, aud ttere is evident danger that Indiana may preseutly be the scene ci an anti-negro cruside com parable with the demonstrators of race hatred in the dark ages. There is, unques tionably, a strong feeling of hostility t? the blacks among the less intelligent classes of the white population, and to stir up this sentimeut by such au active agitation as that now prevailing in Indiana, is to risk an outbreak of animosity of the most sav age character." The Telegraph thinks it rough on the colored population, aud it is, because they do not discriminate. There is nof. a town or locality in the South where the negro cannot live in peace and becurity, and be kindly treated, too, if he behaves himself, and yet the South ias been much abused for regulating bad negroes and pauishing the lawlais. There is no doubt tnat many of the negroes who have flocked into these Ohio river towns are of a bad and danger ous character, whose abstnee would in every way be preferable to their presence ; but whether or not, this is an object lesson lhat the people who have been scolding Southern communities tor protecting them selves might study with profit.

A Wonderful Offer to Women. "We have received word of a most remark, able offer which is to be made to women by Ths Delineator, of New York. " Taking the fact that next year, begins new century, The Delineator offers to distri bute $17,500 among 1901 women. The plan is so cleverly arranged that a woman livinz in a small town or village, has just as good a chance to win one of these 1901 prizes as a woman living in a city because the prizes are given for the number of subscriptions secured in a town in proportion to the popu lation of that town, instead of being given simply to those who send the largest list of subscribers which, of course, aro most easily obtained in big cities. Another clever feature of the plan is, that all the cities, and towns of the United States and Canada have been ar ranged in seven classes. The cities of the greatest population are grouped in Class 1, and as these cities are riot very many, the prizes offered are twenty-eight; the high est prize being $500, and tho lowest $5.00. The total amount of prizes given away in, this class is $1,000. Tho remaining smaller town, and villages fall into Biz other classes, and a$ the number of towns in a class increases, be cause, of course, there are more small town than large ones, the amount of prizes given away to a class increases, so that in Class 7, there wil be $4,000 distributed among 601 winners. Furthermore, to everyone who fails to win one of the 1901 prizes there will be paid an extra commission on subscriptions, provided they equaj one out of every two hundred in habitants pf the town from, which the con testant sends them. This is altogether a vory liberal offer, and One which the famous old Delineator is well able to make good. From our point of view, we dq not see why such an offer needs to bo made by the Publishers of The Delineator, for we believe it already has nearly half a million subscribers. Its etrong hold upon the affec tions of American women has come in the past generation, from its practical advice about dress details and homo matters. DISSOLUTION The firm of J. L.
