The Archbald case Is different. It is hard to see how the delay of the trial until fall can have a disastrous effect on public opinion. The accused pleads that he Is not ready for imme diate trial and that he has not had opportunity to prepare an adequate defense. Furthermore the congress has long been In session, and the sen ators show an altogether excusable disinclination to spend the remainder of the summer in Washington and desire to devote some attention -to the campaign. A trial of the case on its merits at a reasonably early date would suffice, it would seem, without an apparent desire to force an unpre pared defendant into court as the scapegoat for dissatisfaction with the courts In general. Tuesday, August 6, 1912. CONCERNING HARD WORK. "One would gather from much con temporary fiction, including The Gazette-News," remarked a person exer cising his sarcasm, "that the pursuit of agriculture is something like a picnic or clipping coupons." Well, it is easy. There is nothing that has any value or definition ex cept in a relative sense. In the tobacco growing period tn which the trust mercifully put an end, one stuck, along about the middle of May, some 500 tobacco plants into an acre of ground. Repeat that on any considerable number of acres and It loses its charm as a diversion. The setting out of the plants was merely an incident in a 13-months year, of events equally Interesting and much dirtier.. They used to cradle grain) and mow hay with a scythe, and about 11: 30 of a bright June day these avocations tended greatly to produce a sense of fatigue. Once the fields had to be fenced In. One first cut down immense and val uable o;ik tree?, and then cut them up. Then they were split Into rails. Then these uncouth, splintery, heavy things were shouldered onto a wagon, hauled a ways and thrown off. The; had to lie handled again, often some distance, before the fence was com pleted. Plowing in a stumpy newground was a common occupation incident to each spring. Farming can never be hard work agaiiiT-ahvays remembering that things go by comparison with these things eliminated. If a man were going to farm with the lights before him at present he would do mighty little plowing that necessitated following the plow. There are n multitude of conveniences in machinery and system that he would employ. There are no more new grounds or grubbing or there should not be. With the main strength and awk wardness system of farming of the old days, when if a man got as much as ten cents in real money for (Any thing he produced he considered him self lucky, about everybody that could do so left the farm, and how could you blame them? If a man farms under the best of conditions, with his own hands, he will lind a good deal of exercise con nected with It. We would mislead no one bite the notion that It Is necessary to have a gymnasium on the farm. It I.-' not a lll'e for one whose constant leading is to be whnt we believe is deslgnnted as a swell dresser. Hut farming, sinoe the coming of the tobacco trust and the stock law Is not hard work nut by a long shot. And no farmer nowadays will' sell anything for ten cents. The Greensboro Ne,ws appears to be wondering whether Judge Clark can denounce the Southern Railway, litigant in the court over which he presides, and get away with it. Any one can denounce any railroad and get away with it. THE HANFORD AND CASE. ARCIIHALI) We the other day heard a church officer of solidity and standing repeat with conviction that obsolescent ex planation of the activities of Roose- elt that they were the product of spirits vinous or frumentum. He has not drawn a sober breath since he came back from Africa, said this man. Another said he understood It was merely the effervescence of cham pagne. One thinks of the saying at tributed to Lincoln when It was told him that Grant, then In the flush and labors of victory, was drinking a shocking amount of whiskey "I wish 1 could get some of the same sort for some of the other generals." It is pretty safe to say that no one passing along this old story about Roosevelt, except through malice, has read any of the Colonel's recent contributions to the political history of our times. Little Benny's Note Book It is pleasant enough to go to the seashore or the mountains but you can't take your home with you. Columbia State. It Is our understanding that one of the main reasons why they come up here from South Carolina is that home is nothing like this. "Asheville," said Dr. A. J. Crowell to the Charlotte board of aldermen recently, "has made a national repu tation in her achievements in sanita tion." But there are even more im portant things along this line to be done than have been done.

HORSE SHOW EDITION TB BE WIDELY Now pound those Jobbers to five consecutives finishes. They haven't any playing average reputation to speak of, and the Mountaineers need the games. Have at them, without mercy. The political party that guarantees to swat the cost-of-living ghoul by keeping gasoline down to a reason able price would also get some votes. There are apparently still a few motor car drivers) in town that have not heard of that use-your-mia'tler law. By common consent, that was the greatest game ever barring that it was thrown away. A good many people had been ex pecting the second battle of Chicago would be a squib. Georgia has definitely decided, for the time being at least, to compro rrise on beer. The newest political party, only a few weeks old. Is a very giant of parties. The "Horse Show" edition of The Gazette-News, which will make its appearance on the afternoon of Au gust 15, just two days before the big show to be given here by the Inter State Horse Show association, now promises to be one of the handsomest nd most attractive local editions ever Issued here on a special occasion. The edition will not be entirely lo cal either, for a large number of the papers will be distributed in nearby; wns, at the expense of the paper, to advertise the show and bring the peo ple to Asheville for the event. Many who see the paper will come, for they will realize after reading it Just how big an attraction it is. There are true lovers of horse flesh 11 over western North Carolina, and hey cannot help being attracted by he accounts In the "Horse Show" edl- on, telling exactly what the show is to be like. They will likewise be at tracted by the advertisements that ap pear in the edition, and when they ome to Asheville for the show they will probably stay over a day or so for shopping, and the advertisers whom they remember In this edition will get the lion's share of their busi- ess. It might be well for the advertisers to reserve their space early and get the copy. Any advertiser will at once see the advantage ot getting space along with attractive notices of big event and photographs and stories about the fine animals entered In the show. The Prewldent'a acceptance of the resignation of Federal Judge Han ford of Seattle and the decision of the senate to postpone the Impeachment trial of Judge Archbald of the Com merce court, coming as they did when there Is much popular restlessness re-; garding the courts, are coming In for much comment, mostly censorious. The idea, of course, Is that here were golden opportunities to show the efficiency of Impeachment proceed ings to purge the bench where ao drastic a remedy la needful, and to demonstrate the uselessneaa of the demand for the recall of Judges or of Judicial proceedings. The outcome of the Hanford affair was unfortunate. The decision of this Judge barring a socialist from citizenship because of his political be Uefa attracted nation-wide attention, and the Inqulrlea which followed re sulted In charges of reprehensible personal and official conduct. These charges If proved would have been aufflclent to warrant Judrc Hanford's retirement from the nench. Hla resignation Indicated the conviction of himself and his friends that the gov eminent could make out a strong oast.

There Is Siegfried, who came here from Winston-Salem. One of the first things he told was that the Winston team won 18 straight gnmes Immedi ately after he Joined the team. Fans were hopeful, thinking a prize luul been drawn. He did not have the same effect on the Asheville team He has made repeated errors and has never looked us If he wanted to hit the ball. Yesterday he made two throws, one of which gave the game away and the other was enough to have done It. He struck out nearly every time he went to bat. And Just why was Woodward benched? He has not been batting very well, to be aure, but he la ao far ahead of Siegfried and aome oth ers that he Is almost sure. And w did he ever miss anything In the field that he should have caught? There are hints that there la fav oritism at work.
