Dr. Kemp P Battle has accepted the invitation to deliver an add; ess on the organization of the Supreme Court and its history.

He is then -tore familiar with everything con cerning the court, and we may lo k Torn him for one of those learned, pleasant, atiecdotical addresses pe culiar to his s yle. and which h:ve made such great demand on his peculiar g'its. The mention of Capt. M. E. Car ter for a position tin the Supreme Court bench is in accordance with the eternal fitness of things. We say unhesitatingly that, no man can be mentioned who possesses more thoroughly the elements and quali fications for sin h a position. In deed he has lew equals in North Carolina for a position upon the Su pieme Court bench. We say this not only in respect of him as a fellow townsman, out as a recogni tion of his splendid fitness tor the pisition. which we believe bis brethren of the bar generally recog nize. i We replace the "ad" of the Racket j Store, which has been running Ion ger than usual (owing to the absence of the proprietor ot that live con cern i with a new one this morning.

The Waynesville Millitary Com pany has done a proper and a grace ful thing in electing ex-Judge J. C. L. Gudger as Captain; and the Judge has done an equally graceful and proper act in accepting.
