'Congressman, iLdnney, is violently if not viciously opposed to the civil service. The following may have some bearing on. the matter: -. , v. i ' A1 prominent republican tells the Ral' eigh Press-Visitor that Spencer "Black burn, because of the civil service rule, has given.' up the contest for t'he assistant dis trict attorney's place and' has entered in . earnest the race against Congressman Lin aieyfor the nomination f oil congress in the eighth district. . , - The Moriganton Herald says: .: -fRegord'ag the adaptability of the soil r and climate of this county to the. raising of the.xpecan nut," we can say ithat Mr." J. M. Patton, of Silver Creek, has a thrifty n tree which has just come into bearing. , 'the nut raised is of good size, well filled yjand l finely flavored." . . . The pecan Willi not only thrive well - here, but it makes one of the handsomest .- shade trees that can be grown. We would -like to , see a number planted in our parks ' and lawns. t i r- Our Methodist-friends are certainly to be i congratulated on. the yappototmenits for Asheville and vicini'vt 'The re-appoint- ,; iment of Drs. Atkins ad Byrd and Mr. Bain to the charges so ecaithfully served by r them the past je&v Imot only give . : satisfaction of their owmmunion, but to the people of other churches as -well, for they are held in the highest esteem by all. Revs. H.U Atkins, J. R. Moose anoTR. G Tuttle,' assigned to Haywood street, Bethel and .ifiltmore. churches respectively, are new appointments, and will no doubt prove highly satisfactory , to their respective , charges. -Altogether Asheville churches have cause to be thankful for the 'consider ation given them by the good bishop. r ; We have noticed in several of our intelli gent contemporaries this paragraph : - . "The New York Herald says the Sun was piaid $10,000 for writing boom articles about prosperity. The Herald declares it refused . an offer of $15,000 tor the same work.:' '-Are .we to understand that: the Herald .wrote ','boom articles about 'prosperity,' buf ; declined to receive pay for it? Did ' the. "same work"B done by the Herald ap 'pear tn the. Sun for' which the ilO.OOO were "paid? Or were the articles written y the Sun offered to the Herald at the higher named and .refused? .- a- ;. : ;'- If , -' 'prosperity" is boominig, why should the papers be paid for publishing the facts ? If "prosperity"- does not prosper, 4why -.should. so much money be paid for a mis-,;-'statemeiit? The above needs" explanation, , somehow. t ; - . Ex-Senator Peffer, of Kansas, has sold his paper, the Advocate, which, has for many years been the State organ " of "the ; Populist party In Kansas. , The retirement ; "of -the wjhiskered ex -senator, from the edi torial leadership tf the, party' in this- state is not wholly voluntary v Since Ms defeat for re-election to the senate, it is charged he has been sulking to bis tent. ' He .took a , stand editorially against iusion,radvocated t other doctrines obnoxious to the . party leaders: For these ' reasons he was prin jcipally read out - of Z the party. He an ; nounces ithafc bereafter he' will confine him-' i eelf exclusively to literary work for east '; era publications and will not aspire to cf- flee again.- ,v ; . r' And Peffer will not be the ''only one on that beach."- There is'another of the same school of thought who will have a paper to ell, and a 'shady place in some, sequefftered . nook to seek. - , y ' . - AGAIN POSTPONED. - - f j " " - The hearing to be granted, the defendants : D. Id. Russell and the new direotorof the forth Carolina "railroad n'the,?natter "of their exceptions to certain rulings of Spe cial Master Kerr Craige in the lease hear ings, has again been, postponed, Ways . the Salisbury Observer. Judge Chasi f 'H. , Si monton originally des'ignated November 5 as'the time and "Rlcmmon'd as the place for this hearing, but the defendants, not 'being ready,; 'at the ...time appointed, .the jl.earing was' postponed until November Uth. The 4 hearing was -not held ': November 11th as appointed, and' Judge Simonton has desSg- najted Columbia, S. C, as the. place, and Wednesdays, 'November 24th as . the - dfate for ' tnia much postponed! hearing before nim. - , , ' ; This is the lease case, as to which Got, Russell charges fraud in the making there of, but, so signally failed to prove. By the way, 'we have seen orv hearl nothing for .some timefrom young; Mr JAvirett' "of counsel for the state" in this case. - We hope the governor hasn't : lost Mm In the -shuffle going on, for he- gave the ease (much of its spectacular effect. f ' - -ta A POPULIST SAYS BUTLBR SAID IT. j The Rocky - Mount. -Argonan't has been heard from .iq the Marion.- Buitler episode. The Argonant refers to a statement in anr other paper "that -'Butler1 might feave been irtcorrectiy. quoted, and saysf - -v , Our es'teemed ntemporary need not fear "Senator Bufter'si denial; he" dare not conrtadict it; - hen . shameful remark was heard by too many for any denial to hold water. If he should happen to do so, we have the affidavits of some of our fore most citizens that our charge was true. Ope of the most prominent" Populist lead- ers in this section acknowledges that the man who is now at the head of that party in this state made this damnable accusa tion against his fellow tttizens. We stood beside. this gentleman . when; .Butler be- fcfouled bimself, his state and his race, by this utterance and noticed Ms iook;of righteous indignation. - , 4 ' V . "Brave gentleman and soldier of the "lost cause" as ne was, it was plain to be seea that his whole soul revolted at the vileness of his chief. Can any one "wonder at it?" "The evidence fs all against North Caro lina's senior senator. .'It is evident that he perpetrated an outrageous . slander and then tried' to sneak out of it. -' A 'PAINFULLY BAXf RECORD. Col. Olds, the Raleigh correspondent, writes the following: ' 'The code requires all clerks of Courts to make to the . attorney ' general at the end of each term a report' as to the trials for crimes, and "it is from these that the annual reports of criminal statistics are made up. Almost all the returns for 1897 are in hand, as only eleven days more of the fiscal year remain. The reports are in hand up to October 30th. Your correspon dent has looked at them all, with a view to getting facts as to the number of trials for capital crimes in; whieh .there was either conviction for that crime., in the first degree or in the second. Each county is given. In ; the list are also 'Included crimes which are odd or in which sentence or finding is out of the common' ' , Then follows 'tne , list in detail. Col. bids then concludes: j ' - "Infanticide appears to be avvery rare crime, from these returns. There were about twenty-five trials for slander, but very few convictions. For horse stealing five years appears to be thought the' proper punishment. ! There were a good, many trials for disturbing religious worship. Larceny continues to be tie most common crime; certainly the one Which gets by far the most sentences. Carrying concealed weapons is also very frequent. Only one lynching is reported, the one in Buncombe. In the list of capital crimes, murder leads, as twenty-seven persons were tried for it; while for burglary seventeen were tried; nine for rape and four for arson." Hard times and bad government will generate crime. The above report 13 ap palling, and should call the people to their senses. ' . . A SQUIRREL FARM FOR YOUNG CON VICTS. :- 1 i , The penitentiary authorities are? taking steps not only to enlarge but diversify the farming operations of that institution. Rice plantations in one section and sugar beet experiments in 'another are among the new enterprises proposed. Without refernce, to the utility of these movements' it does oc cur to us that a farm the ayla'n farm ad joining "the penitentiary,' for instance, might be set apart for the exclusive use c young convicts 'so that these can be worked ana kept apart from the older criminals we throw this out - for the consider ation of the authorities. ' . ' LED IN THE AWARDS. In the awards at the Tennessee Centen nial exposition the SoU'thern railway was deservedly " fortunate, receiving for its splendid! and varied . exhibit,-' one 'gold, inree silver aned'as and. twelve diplomas and -bronze medals. 'No railway was given so many-awards, and no other exMbit re ceivea so many evidences' of excellence. The exhibit, as a whole,' covered 'the re1 sources ana products of the- country along the line of the Southern roilway in Virginia," Nortih. and South Carolina, Georgia,-Alabama, Mississippi, East Tennessee and Kentucky. The gold medal was given, for the 'splendid display of ores, minerals, etc.. from alone thi -lint wnai rriha judges,1 in their . award, spoke of the evi-r cent oare , shown iui the collection and ar. rangeent of -the 'exhibit and - its attractive ness, . and said: , '','Th'e exhibit - contains ah excellent, display of the ores of iron, cop- uuau.g-aneset goia, . silver, lead, zinc, nickel; and aluminum as well 'as typical specimens or coal,- fire-clay, corundum, ka olin, : mica, graphite, etc." .
