RATE FIGHT THROUGH QUEER Among the various out-of-State pa pers which have commented upon Judge Pritchard's extraordinary course only The Baltimore News, so far as our observation extends, has had a good word for it, and The News labors under a misapprehension which might well lead Its admirable Judg ment astray In this Instance. But it is The New Orleans Times-Democrat which submits most Interesting, though not altogether well-founded, comment. Alter remarking that "a contention has arisen In North Caroll' : na which promises to attract the at tentlon of the whole country and may bring the authority of the State and Federal courts into direct conflict." juage jpntcnara having "gone to lengths perhaps never before content plated by a court," The Times-Demo crat reviews with substantial accuracy the circumstances up to Wednesday, and continues: 'There ar several features of the esse which promise to muse It interesting;. Not the least or Uieea perhaps is tlio IMtlMmnriAl if Hi . .l...l . .i. . ....... rHi juukc. tie m a mountaineer, from that section of the State which was iilled with Union men during the civil war. Some of these Joined the Federal army In East Ten reawe, but most of thorn were rim to earth by conscript uft'lcers under the ad ministration of Governor Vance and did excellent service in the Confederat army, although they met everywhere the contempt of tlu volunteer troops of the folate. The Confederate element In the Elate has never forjrlven this class for their hostility to the State authority during; tho stress of war, and in turn they have never forgiven the State fur U determined and successful efforts of Vance to conacrlpt thirn. This senti ment has larRcly died out, no doubt, but It still exist j a mens the older citizens, who on both aides ure perhaps as bitter as ever they were. "Another feature that Is likely to mak" the cnss intr sting I the Jealouiiy of the State and Its poople of the en croachment of tie Federal uuthnritv, t)d a determination to combat such -en-croathmd'it at every point. If the State courts maintain a tlrm jitsnd they will undoubtedly have the population In solid fhalitnx behind them and ready to form ' poiwe comltatus even In opposition to the federal courts. In a similar sltua Ucn In rwconntnictlon days, with tha Mato dotted with armed forces, when the sheriff of this ain! county of Wake announced that he wu to form a pomto to restFt th military authority of won ktructlnn Governor Ilnhlen, special trains wi-r run from all part i f the Mute Ail ed with armed men anxious to be sum moned by tne slrerlff. The establishment of factories throughout the State may htve chanje'd the character of tho popu lation, but If the opposing courts stand firm the situation is apt to prove a very iBtenntlng ouu.

Oo away from home to learn home fclstory. Judge Fritchard's early youth as an Katst Tennessee mountain eer may have had omothlng to do with his extreme Federalist proclivi ties, but The Times-Democrat's as sumption that bitter civil war and reconsirucuon memories oi me outer elthjens on both sides" arc concerned In this present situation Is far-fetched to the point of wildcat absurdity. Wo are firmly convinced that no one In Jforth Carolina dreams of connecting - f-7 n1"1'"! irvinifi ngamni civil war Tories to be much more mill , tant than that against revolutionary ,- ar Tories. There Is, of course, no ?, smoldering feud between contlnulngly hostile elements In this State. It is . wetl to have a historical background lor. present day events but not when that backgroupd Is a mere brain Cg ' ment. Our contemporary hows a not altogether inaccurate acquaintance vwltta past conditions In western North . Carolina: It errs wildly when It as sumes those conditions to exist to-day, we must not only go away from ' home to learn history but hews, The neciaration that "should Judge Prltch ard be, able to enforce hla order the , matW wll undoubtedly be brought to th attention of Congress and It not Improbable that the Representatives from the Tar Heel State will bring ar lules of Impeachment against him" arouses our wonder.

The cigarette la truly a foul thlng and how any human being can care for It, must always remain something of a mystery. Concerning the causa of , this foulness, however, The Observer Is rather less at sea than The Landmark, We can say that the filth which accumulates In a pipe or lodges in the butt of. cheap cigars Is with a cigarette sucked completely Into the smoker. Naturally smoke so impregnated to foul. There can be ho doubt that the combination of burning paper with tobacco does something to re-enforce the smell and make It yet stronger. . The Observer thinks It ought to have a prize for helping to clear up this previously obscure matter MARS IS RETREAT. Having given astronomers a rare op portunity to gather fresh data bearing upon the question whether hla canals are the work of intelligent beings such as men have become within the past few thousand years, Mars Is now re treating rapidly from our planet For all that we know, Martian-astronomers may be eagerly gazing through . tele- ecopes in this direction and wondering. If they will ever be able to attract ' h, . ; , , 7T t our attention: that Is, supposing f the ' supposed Martians to believe the Earth inhabited. If there are Indeed such I K-tn-, a h- -vvi.. B;"r r . f.-m-., mute insuijr ueYeiujrea iyp man our selves, for they must have had a longer start. Wireless telegraphy sug gests the thrilling possibility of com munication some day. These are the two planets which are most closely re lated In all respects, as well as the nearest together, and a neighborly feeling should always exist between them. We shall await with Interest such new Information as the astrono mers may have gained. Meantime, people, whether or not Interested In the questions involved, will miss a fine sight If they do not turn their eyes upon the great red planet as he beats his retreat through the southwestern heavens. It Is a pleasure to turn from the consideration of politics, railroad rate suits and other matters of public con cern and open a private letter from one of the finest old gentlemen that ever lived ho Is now nearlng his sev entieth year and read thene sen tences: "I ought to be happy and I reckon am as much so as anybody in this world of trouble. My health is per fect. It could not be better. I never have a pain or an ache." Here Is a man who values the blessings which are his and does not grumble because they are not more or greater. Every indictment and trial of a lyncher Is productive of grood, though his acquittal by a "jury of his peers" la easily foreseen by prophetic eyes. He loses time, his defense costs money, and there Is more or less of mental anguish until the foreman stands up and pronounces the usual "Not guil ty." This takes no account of the lashing of conscience, because your average lyncher has no conscience to be lashed. Hut the general result of Indictment and trial is deterrent and wholesome. Keep them up, though there may never be a conviction.

" The association could hardly do business without Urn, The attend ance waa not . as large as it should have been but waa representative and It la hoped that good will result to the membership, present. ' i Apart from the meetings, the ews paper men M not fall to get a great deal of enjoyment out of the sailing, fishing and eurf-bathlng. They are all to be had In perfection at More head City, though if one engaged In none of them life U a delight under the breezes which sweep the Atlantic Hotel. Mr. Frank P. Morton Is seen at his best this season as a hotel man ager. He had a house full of com pany last week but he and bis assist ants were equal to the altuation and all comers were well taken , care ot The efficiency of the dining room ser vice was a subject of complimentary remark. Its promptness and accur acy were under the circumstances re markable. While the flab at Morehead never bit better than this season, they never taBted better, and It is doubtful If any .fish in the world taste better than the Morehead fish -the Spanish mackerel, trout, and tlra others. Or dinarily at supper there were four va rieties on the table. Speaking of news paper fishermen. In this accomplish ment Paragrapher Joe King, of The Durham Herald, led all the rest It was his delight to guy the luckless, and while chewing Battle Axe tobacco and throwing out the fish as fast as he could throw In his line, he worried a party of companions, Thursday morn ing, by telling them that they could not catch, any but fool fish the sort that had no better sense than to come up and throw themselves on their hooks. Special features of the meeting of the Press Association were the re- gpnse of Mr. Archibald Johnson to the address of welcome by Mr. W. L. Arendell, of Morehead City, and the report of the retiring president, Mr. t u-ttM of Xhe Bmlthneld Her- aid. Among the essays read were some of real merit, but it would of course not be proper to designate any particular papers out of. a number. The audiences heard with a great deal of enjoyment the eloquent address of Prof. J. B. Carlyle, of Wake Forest College, on the Press and the Peda gogue, Wednesday night, and with the closest attention and Interest the ad dress, Illustrated by map, Thursday morning, of Hon. John H. Small, Rep resentative from the first district, on the Inland Water-way. There was no editor or other auditor to whom it did not convey valuable Information about this Important work, which, If com pleted, as It Is believed It will be, will mean so much to the protection and promotion of the coastwise trade. A very striking fact developed by Mr. Small, In mentioning that none of our harbors afford water sufficient for ves sels of the deepest draught, where the silver service to the cruiser North Car olina may be ; presented, was that a point just off Cape Lookout Is entirely practicable for thls purpose. The Press Association's meeting ad journed Thursday afternoon and Fri day morning the members took a ear provided by the Norfolk & Southern Railway to vlBlt, by Invitation, Wash ington, Beaufort county. This was ac complished by way of Newbern and the newly completed Norfolk & South ern, 36 miles, to Washington. The writer was, unhappily, denied the pleasure of participation in this Jour ney and the entertainment afforded by the hospltablo people of this progres sive fown, having been called home by business. Thus was blasted an antici pation which has been cherished for years. Speaking of the Norfolk & Southern, to which the lease of the old Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad has been transferred, It has wrought a marvel ous change on this line. Nice new sta tions are dotted all along It; the track Is Incomparably better than that Of the North Carolina Railroad between Greensboro and Cloldsboro; Bleepera and chair cars are operated on all pas senger trains! wooa-turning locomo tives have been converted Into coal- burners; heavy rail has been laid from Ooldsboro to Klaston and will be con tinued thence to Beaufort; and the equipment of the trains Is first-class. The policy of the company Is reported liberal and enlightened. The towns along the line LaOrangc, Kinston and Newbern are growing and the country is prospering. Morehead City, too, Is growing and with a bridge across the sound, property In Beaufort has Increased 50 per cent.', but the railroad has a proportion In the effort to make old Beaufort grow. It has Icfr population, It Is said, than It had thirty years ago. Certainly this com pany lacked nothing In courtesy and attention to the newspaper people whom It handled last week. Recurring to tho Atlantic Hotel, the familiar figures there, as every sum mer, are x-Oovernor and Mrs. Jarvls. It was gratifying to see the honored ex-Oovenror, who some months ago, passed through a wasting sickness, looking as well as five years . ago, though he has not yet had a return to his full strength.; ; . ;,y.- Charlotte people st the Atlantic are Mrs. II..A.

Notwithstanding the ntendty of the heat, and the consequent desire on tho part of many church-oer to stay at home and "keep cool," there will ba a subject discussed in more htan one pulpit to-day that will prove of spec ial interest to the congregations. More than one pastor in the city will refer briefly or at length' this morning or to-night to the? observance of tne Sabbath, prompted largely by .the present discussion now going onXi charlotte regarding Sunday laws. The discussion of this .ubject will no doubt attract to chureb many regular attendants who would otherwise rest at home to-day, and will probably at. tract alos not a few poople who do not attend church services regularly.

"; Special to The Observer. Durham, July 80.--Mr. J. - B. Gra ham, who has been, agent for the Southern road here for several years, has resigned his position and rumor has It that he will be succeeded by Mr. R. W. Finlatar, of Raleigh. ,Thls Is not certain, however. ,: Mr. Graham has been In very bad bf alth for about a year and it was on tie's account that he decided to resign. There is some talk that Mr. J. H. Caldwell, assistant! agent, may be appointed as agent, but Mr. Caldwell has tendered his reslgna tlon to take effect as soon as possible. Mr. Graham has been spending some months at Mount" Airy and he will go back there for the remainder of the summer season.; ! 4 v Master Vlrglnius Lougee, son . of Mr. and Mrs. Vlrglnius Lougee, war pain fully hurt last evening by a fall from a tree. In the fall one leg waa broken and this will keep him in bed for some time. He was not hurt otherwise, save a few bruises. ,' '....,"'' After ten days it has been ascertain ed that C. T. Oakley, the man whoee body was taken from the Lakewood Park swimming pool, was seen at the park late Monday afternoon, the day before the finding of the dead body. Up to this time It has been Impossible to find any one who saw the man lat er than noon Monday when he left his hotel. Mr. W. F. Long, cashier of the Bank of Roxboro, who was in Dur ham Monday before the finding of the body, says that he saw Oakley sitting on a bench, near the lake, and look ing despondent. This was about 4 o'clock. This additional Information causes many to believe that after all It was a case of suicide," although" 1t has been impossible to get any one who can account for the scratches von his hands; the bruises on his stomach and wrist, the bruises and cuts about the face, and the absence of very much water In his lungs. It looks 'now as If the matter will never be fully clear ed Up." " "?"" " f'-w-i' Game Warden J. F. Pleasants Is making it interesting for those who violate the Audobon laws by shooting birds that are on the protected list. Yesterday he-arrested W. J. Pettr grew, a contractor, for shooting mar tins and the defendant entered a plea of guilty and was fined tS with the costs, immediately after this Mr. Pet tlgrew was arrested on " two v6ther charges of a similar nature. The two second cases will be fought in the courts. This year there has been less of this practice of shooting protected birds than any season since the enact ment of the law,:: but Game Warden Pleasants says that what there la must stop or else there will be more trouw ble for the sportsmen man a "Dasnet of monkeys.' . . Isaac Morris, a Hebrew, is under arrest on two charges of getting goods from E.

He is under bond In both cases awaitinsf trial, before a Justice of the peace, , Morris is a mer chant and recently lost his stock of goods by fire, Mr., Thompson says that on the representation that he had not collected his Insurance . money and promising to pay th claims when this was done he was. alio wed to make the debts. - It afterwards developed that the Insurance money had been collect ed and Morris would - not pay the claims.
