We are publishing to-day the text f a bill which has been Introduced In the lower hotixe of tli Legislature providing for th appointment of a 'board of examiners which shall pass Upon the qualifications of railroad telegraph operators and Issue license to ueh a are found capable and to these only. The measure Is one of ) merit and this or some bill embody ing Its vital principles should be enacted. The public doe not need to be told that many railroad acci dents are due to the youthf ulness, in experience and carelessness of tele fraph operators, and others to the fact that In frequent cases operators Are to such a degree over-worked and at times so overcome, from natural causes, by sleep, that, however ca pable they may be normally, they loHe for the time being the cense of re ponsiblllty. The gentleman, an ex perienced operator, who encloses us thi bill for publication, writes this Diong other things In a private let ter accompanying It: "! want to remind yon of die terrible frequency witli which Invest iK.niona fol lowing wreck, wherein liven uni prop erty have been suci'illeed. slmw thai the blame retii on the teb-graph'-r. who bus mlcontrn .1 or fnrsnm-ii or an lin- proper signal has been kivimi.

A thread of pathos run through the addres to the publlo by Mr. W. W. Flnley, the new president of tho Southern Railway, published in this paper yesterday, ; He frankly cpo fesso that hfi road la not living up tp It duty, but protests that it ) do ing the very best It can, that the blame Is , not wholly, Its, and plead for a charltkblV censlderatlbn pt lt hort coming. Since the Southern Railway Company wan organized and took over the Richmond A Danville Railroad, twelve years ago, It ha spent and contracted to pen for betterments and equipment a total. of nearly a bil lion dollar. In addition to the ex penditures on track, road bed and In other physical Improvement, "It has Increased Its rolling stock as follows: Locomotives, from 623 to (received and contracted for) 1,644; freight train cars from 18,924 to (received and contracted for) 58,491; passenger train cars from 487 to (received and contracted for) 1,008. This," says Mr. Flnley, "does not Indicate fully the Increase made to its equipment by the company, because the increased power of the locomotives, and the Increased tonnage capacity of the cars, have added much more to the equipment capacity of the company than the number of added units would repre sent. For example, the average ca pacity of the freight cars has been increased 28.38 per cent." Those who at this period of deep feeling against the railroads still want to be Just as between them and the people, need to give attentive consid eration to this calm and argumenta tive statement from Mr. Finley. In this as in all other matters there is something to bo said on both sides. The Invitation to Gen. R. F. Hoke to attend a reception to be given him by the Legislature on Lee's birthday ltogether becoming. The hope has been expressed that he will ad dress the body, but this hope will hardly be realized, and more's the pity. Gen. Hoke does not talk, even to his friends, except upon rare occa sions, about the war, and if he should address tho Legislature upon any matter connected with It, his fame would not rest upon that ad- drws or upon any gift of oratory however remarkable, that he might develop now, but upon his extraordi nary military record. A clerk in one of the government departments at : Washington when the civil war broke : . . . , , . out, he resigned and came home, en- 'listed as a private in a Lincoln county i company, and tho end of the war . ... , , , . . found him a major general, slated for commander-ln-chlcf of the Army of Northern Virginia In the event of the i threatened collapse of Gen.

The exhibit of fine poultry at the city hall la attracting unusual inter eat. ' In number, as well , as quality, of birds displayed, the show this year surpasses anything of Its kind ever attempted in, the ..; city before,; , Mr. George O... Brown, who for 17. yearn was agricultural and . poultry editor of The Baltimore Bun, and who Is Judging the fowls, declares that the exhibit Is one of surprising quality and merit. The marry visitors at the city hall yeeterday were loud In their praises of the show. It would be a difficult matter to designate the finest rowls. The prise winning pen of barred .Plymouth Rocks exhibited by Messrs. B. 'S. Davis and J. K. A. Alexander, were' very popular. The w-nlto Wyandottes of Mr, J. N. Jeffrey, of Raleigh, were much udmlred. He displayed eight birds and captured nine prizes. Mr. J. P. Greene's brown Leghorns and Mr. R. H. Merritt's white Leghorns were excellent. Mr. W. B. Alex ander's bantams were inspected by many, the pens being very popular. The fowls exhibited by others were mentioned often. In discussing the show with an Observer reporter yesterday, Mr. lirown expressed his surprise at th exceptional quality of the exhibit. The general excellence of the barred Ply mouth Rocks greatly astonished him. He declared that they aversged bet ter in size than many of the larger show which Hie has judged In the North. He expressed the belief that the winning specimens would be plac ed in strong competition in almost any large shows anywhere. Mr. Brown is an authority In all depart ments of the poultry business, es pecially so in regard to the Plymouth Itcxk family, foe being the originator, and for many years president, of the American Plymouth Rock Club. Mr. Brown expressed his admira tion for the white Wyandotte win ners, characterizing them as fine type specimens, clean-out and pure white, as were also the white Ply mouth Rocks. He considers the entire Wyandotte family well represented. The white and brown Leghorns average ns good In quality as at any of the shows. Tho fact that these winners have mainly been bred In th State, Mr. Brown says, shows that North Caro lina fanciers have become expert In properly mating their fowls to pro duce quality. He ts of the opinion that as fine fowls may be produced In North Carolina a In any Stat. He further says that the many poul- try shows held In the- State plainly indicate that the poultry Industry is becoming recognized ax a valuable source, of revenue, not only to fan ciers, so-called, but to farmers. In the past few years poultry fanciers have turned their attention to the utility side ns much as the fancy ! points. With trap-nest methods and an.fu, RlP(.tlon, the -egg record" i maker Ihas become a feature among ! pure breeds, so that mongrels or scrubs are no longer recognised as y(rnr)(,tltorl, for any utlty qualities jwith tho pure breeds. Mr. Brown 'iys lie did not expect to find such it, hirers, uhnu- nr Ann with RO TnflnV ,,. . , neclmen. The nromDt- ncsM with which the award ribbons are placed on tho coops alter ma ludglng could give many Northern "-"-""" pHments the management of the Charlotte allow, and says It deserves 'to bo class d as one of the leading !i,f,i.lirv xhiiu'H of the South. ' J . . " "There aro ns tine birds bred In the South." declared Mr. Brown, "as In nnv section, anil as soon as tn,sisting nere were Mesdames W. C. Houtlx-rn fanciers learn the art of . , . . , . h southern raised specimens may be C nt to any State nd have a chanec 'to win the highest honors.
