The Progressive Farmer well de Scribes the most trying grievance of tbe public against the railroad. 'Vol only did the managers of many of the gr-'at transportation lines charge higher raf s than they right- fully should,'' it say. - but what was rorse they set themselves to kill and to make alive; to build up this town whkh the railway magnate favore 1 ' , . (possibly because in it they own'd much property), and to dlcrlmtnata ralnt and iniure other towns. The South especially has suffered much 111 this respect A shipper from Cin cinnati said to us a few days ago: Saiiford, N. C. Is twenty-eight miles nearer to me than New York, but tho freight rata on my goods to New York Is 23 1-2 cents and to Sanford St 1-2 cents.' And so the real freight problem is nt to lower rates, but to equalise them, to prevent the dlacrlm Inatlons that build certain sections and pull down others." North Carolina, us one of the sec tions given over to other sections to be exploited, Is at last fully aliv to this truth, The observer is glad to nay. We have already likened th treatment of this Stat- by the rail roads to the hard lot of the stepchild In the fairy talc; we are happy to add that the stepchild Is In revolt Horn" relief is to b exp.ct.'l from the ex cellent Holt rate law, but this matter Is primarily one of Inter-State com merce and the Legislature cannot strike directly at the root of the evil. What It can do Is to hit the big sys- terns wherever they aru vulnerable until, are roa Carolina does not propose to rmnin the victim of outrageous discrimina tion, and If something Is not done before the next legislature meets there will be a day of reckoning However sulky the spoiled children may prove ut the prospect of some thing like equal treatment all nround. any dlsagre. ableness on their part Is less to lw dreaded than the righteous Indignation of the pei,pi(. of North Carolina. The railroads cannot af ford to alienate the great Jwitl. e-lov-lng public when th.lr n'-ml'-s, honest and dishonest, haw Vo th. lr In- Jury. ratlnee Is fa1 u:lng 'o be a Virtue.

As the case stands he has been convicted of the common law offence of kidnap ing and, under the provisions of our Code, can be- given a penitentiary sen tence of not exceeding twenty years. Whether he will seek to make terms by producing hla victim alive, In case such a course Is possible, remains to be seen. It is hardly necessary It Is not In the least degree necessary so far as Charlotte people (are concerned to say that but for the human Interest which such crimes always posness the defalcation of a bank official which became known yesterday would not possess sufficient Importance to call for extended notice. None tho less, the steps which the officials of the Institution concerned and the bank ing Interests of the city generally took to avoid even momentary apprehen sion on the part of any one are worthy of all commendation.

As the report gained volume, tnoso Interested be gan to search for corroborative evl donee, at was mentioned that the missing man was not at his post juonaay some one else I declared tr at he had been seta at the ' Sea board depot Saturday night with a neavy grip, bound North. Another vouchsafed the hews that Mr. W. H. Twltty, the cashier, had been alck In bed for the past two weeks and that ample opportunity had ; been - af forded. ' Some one else declared that the presence of Mr. John M. Miller, r, of . Richmond, Va was ' sug gestive and that the manner la which ha had been In conference . with President Heath end others was sus picious. AH of these facts coming together, spiced with sensational ru mors, gave wings to the story and It flew everywhere. THE RUMORS VERIFIED AT THE BANK. Everybody had heard the story yesterday morning. A number had made Inquiry at the bank and no de-1 nlal whatever was made of that fact that Mr. Jones had left for parts un known and that his accounts were short In a considerable sum. The verification of the story was staggering to many. Not that the stability of the bank was endangered, but that one In whom everybody Im posed the most implicit confidenco had proved traitor to his trust. It was enough to cause a flurry. So far as the bank was concerned, It could have withstood the defalcation twlco over, the depositors not losing ono penny. The public 'held In mind not the Charlotte National Panic, but the act of Its missing employe. It Is hard for one to credit the deed when all the antecedent circum stances are reviewed. Mr, Jones left behind him a family, one of whom any man might be proud. For some time past Mrs. Jones has beon In the I'resbytertan Hospital undergoing treatment. Whllo she has been away, Mr. Jones has been looking after his three children at his home at No. 807 North College street. Thd news of the defalcation was broken to Mrs. Jones Tuesday night and she left over the 8eahoard yesterday morning for her old home in Wil mington. Her children accompanied her. WA8 ASSISTANT SUNDAY SCHOOL 8VPERINTENDENT. The absconder was a loader In church and Sunday school work.' He was assistant superintendent of the First Presbyterian Sunday school and played one of the instruments In the Sunday school choir. He was an enthusiastic member of the Young Men's Christian Association arid al ways manifested a lively interest In Its success. As s'cretay and treas urer of the Colonial Club, he hnndlpd the funds nnd directed the general pollry of that popular social organi zation. It is understood that the balance on hand of the Colonial Club's money was untouched. Nothing need be said of the sta bility of the harlotte .ationai Hank. The statement of the president, rein-1 frfp(om 0 individual action In the frrced by the guarantee of tho dl- i ora, affarg or eaoh church, and the rectors, is amply- sufficient to meet i un)ty of all the rhurches for mu nny contingency. If the defalcntlon ! tua WP)fnr0 an(j co-operation. was $irn,n00 Instead1 of $U,000, the: statement would stand.

It is stated on good authority mat ,Mr, rercy Fonviiie was closely associated with. the, pHcoundlng of ficial and that j the twJT worked In conjunction. , verification of this rumor could be "secured last night owing to the lateness of : the hour. It is given much eredenoe by those who ere familiar with the . eltuation. Mr. Edward F. Meehan. chief In spector of ' the "American: Bonding Company, ' arrived In the dt last last night from Baltimore, to look af ter the Interests, of his concern. To an Observer reporter last night he expressed the belief that the default ing assistant cashier had made di rect for New York and that, If he had a capable ' confederate,.-would take a few flyers on the curb before scooting for cover. He wired a full dlscrlpetlon of tha man and all par ticulars to the New York police , and detective agencies and a careful and systematic search wiI made for mm. Mr, Meenan is of tne opinion that such course Is very probable, es pecially since the abscoundlng of ficial has a stong desire to dabble In stocks. Mr. Meehan In talking of the precaution! which the missing man had taken to throw possible pur suers off hla trail, said that he had acted as a veteran In every detail. Many stories are being told of what the missing man did during the two or three days prior to his departure. Saturday he gathered together every thing he had on. such as a monogram buttons, pine and even his watch. These he boxed up and sent down to his home. There they are to-day If nothing has happened to them. Last Friday or Saturday, he went Into the jewelry store of Garibaldi, Bruns & Dixon and purchased a cheap sil ver watch. This he said was for a friends. A number of other minor purchases were made. Doubtless he effected a complete disguise when he got away from the city. Several rumors were circulated last night of attachments levied on prop erty owned by the abscoundlng banker. Doubtless a number will be Issued to-day. It Is of interest to note that Chief W. 8. Orr, of the fire department. Is assltlng the bank officials In the local detective work. FOR GENERAL CHURCTI TTNIOX.
