EDWARD L. CONN: In Raleigh News & Observer Smithfield, N. C, Sept. 17 Democ racy was triumphant in Johnston coun ty today, and her matchless advocate, ex-Governor Charles B. Aycook, was heard by two thousand menfrom every section ol the county. It was a great day for Johnston, and for De'mecracy, As if inspired, lor nearly two hours Governor Aycock expounded the fun dAmnnta.12 Democratic policies, at the same time mercilessly exposing and striking the hypocrisy ol North Caro lina Republicanism. He spoke for nearly an hour in burning words on the situation in this State, devoting tbe remainder of the speech to a pow erful exposition of the Democratic National platform, contrasting it with the trust-flavored declarations of the National Republicans. Several dis. tinguished lawyers from other cities whe heard Governor Aycock declared his speech to be not only the utterance ot a statesman, but one ot the finest masterpieces ot North Carolina politi- caljoratory. Two years ago disaffection in John ston county, caused by local troubles, reached its hieh water-mark. Since that time the Democrats have been re gainning their former strength grad The History of Jury Trials the World Over May Be Search ed in Vain For Another Such Instance. No spot on the record of France is so black as that nation's treatment el Captain Alired Dreyfus. Tbe great wrong done him was tardily repaired and one would naturally think that the government and the people would be willing and glad to do all in their power to make him forget the atrocious crime committed against him. But no; Gregori, a man who wears the epaulettes of a captain in the French army, and who tried to shoot down Dreyfus at the tomb ol Zola, great defender ot the wronged man, has been acquitted by ajuiyof his peers. There is no question ol Gregori hav ing done the shooting, says the Times- Dispatch, diseussing the matter edito rially; he boasted of the act at the time; he boasts of it now. His speech to the jury was one that none but a Frenchman could make; that few but a Frenchman would care to make. He condemned every step taken in the re instatement of Dreyfus, every conse quence that has come from it, and found satis taction and pride only in the "protest" made by him against Dreyfusism, Yet the jury declared him to be innocent.

Olive Tribune A newspaper, if itfehas any brains eenseience and muscle back of it. mus, continually decide between doing its duty and injuring its pocket. In any position but that of a editor, the pub lic is able to separate the individual heme from the eolleetive citizen. But if an editor does not please them it's at his poekets they aim. Thus it is the newspapers learn who their friends are. The matt who reads the news paper and admires it all the year round yet gives his business support to s-me other concern, whose prinaiples or the actions of its editor he detests, is not a friend to the former newspaper. Admiration alone will net run a newspaper. There are too many men who expect am editor to slave in de ienee of their pet notions and hobbies, a A tmn.t. their views aeainst the strongest opposition and coolly with hold the business support by whieh alone a newspaper can live. ' Talk sbout a paper having" a public duty to perform and an editor having to work for "his principles is cheap when others stand back and extend a lukewarm neutrality. The result is the newspaper may die while laboring lor its principles and the cause, oi right and Instioe. which they admire but do not support. - ti,a 1 h8 Kind You Have Always Bought The Cause of Many Sudden Deaths.

During his official career he has grown in popularity, and the compliment paid him by the State convention was deserved. Ho repre sents a type of citizenship of which I hope to see an increasing number of representatives. He is a man ef means, whose sympathies are with the masses and he finds a pleasure in "rendering public service.

Redding, Conn. .Sept. 18 Two burg lars, who broke into the residence ol Samuel L. Clemens (Mark Twain) in Redding late last night, were captured today on a New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad train between Be thel and Redding, after a desperate fight in which Deputy Sheriff Banks, ot Redding was shot in the leg. Miss Lyon, Mr. Clemens' secretary, was aroused about midnight by the sound of breaking glass in the lower part of" the honse. She went softly down the stairs to find a flood ol light in the dining room, and that the side board with its solid silver, was miss ing from its customary place in the room. Cautiously slipping along in the shadows to a point where,she could have a view of the garden, to which her attention bad been called by an open window in the dining room, Miss Lyon saw two men forcing - the doors and drawers of the sideboard, which they had carried out. Miss Lyon sum moned Mr. Clemens and the butler, and then telephoned for Sheriff Banks and several neighbors. Before any of th-m reached the seene.the burglars had fled with their booty, but the hurriedly formed posse started in pursuit.- The two men were captured on a train at this point after a fierce fight in which the sheriff was wounded twice and one of the men shot himself seriously in the head, The burglars had sorted all the solid silver from the plated ware, but the silver was recovered. Mr. Clemens today posted this no tice on the door of the house: 'Notice to the next Burgiar There is nothing but plated ware now and henceforth. You will find it in that brass thing in the dining room over in the corner by the basket of kittens. If you want the basket put the kittens in the brass thing. Do not make a noise it disturbs the family. You will find rubbers in the front hall by that thing which has the umbrellas in it, chiffon ier, 1 think tney call it, or pergola, or something like that.
