THE FKANKLIN TIMES . A. THOMAS. Editor and Trprietor. 4 1 . . .... , -. j Friday. March 29, ' " - - - 1901. i ONE TXABi - fl.00 BIX MONTHS, - 65 THREE MONTHS, - 35 THE JUDGES ACQUITTED. On yesterday the Stale Senate sit ting as a Court of Impeachment, by a vote of 23 to 27, failed to sustain the articles of Impeachment recently passed by the House of Representatives. It would have required a two-thirds vote to have sustained the Impeachment x so the vote may be said not . to have been even close. The Republicans and Populists, numbering n, voted solidly against the charges, which com bined with 12 Democrats, gave the result above stated. The following are the Democrats who voted against V Impeachment : ' Toe. A. Brown. x of Columbus; S. - . Mclntyre, of Robeson; W; W. String field, of Hay wood: H. A. London, of Chatham; J. A. Long, of Person; J. E, W. Sugg, of Green; Geo. H. Currie, of Bladen, H. A. Foushee, of Durham Jas. D. Glenn, of Guilford; J. A Leak, of Anson; H. C. McAllister, of Cabarrus; J. S. Henderson, of Rowan The trial will be a memorable one and will long be remembered in North Carolina. The State's best legal tal ent was employed on both sides, and we doubt if ever before in the history of the State has a legal battle been so stubbornly contested by legal giants. - -'. The Senate chamber on yesterday was packed with people to hear the clos ine of the series of perhans the ablest arguments ever made in the State, People were present from all parts .of the State. Each side had reserved for the close some of their ablest Coun sel Osborn for the defense and Wat son for the nrosecution. . Those who heard them were not disappointed! The speeches were powerful apd elo quent and left nothing more to be ' . . said either for or against. But what ot tbe verdict? . in our humble opinion a ereat wrong has been done the State of North Carolina. Sympathy for the living, the desire not to put a stigma on the dead, and other and various influences, commendable in their way, but not to be thought of . 1 : in a crisis so grave as this, have . thrust justice aside, and left still foisted upon the State a judiciary, which if not cor. rupt, is at best both weak and intense ly partisan. Not even the most ar dent supporters of the accused judges approved their action in the cases cited. Their plea for them was "mis take of opinion,1' "no wrong intent.'' Indeed, the plight of our State is a fearful one. The result must be borne patiently until the people shall have, an oppor tunity to express their, opinion, and with no ignorant negro vote to offset the ballot of the intelligent white man, (provided the pardoned Court fails to declare the amendment "unconstitu tional") they will speak in thunder tones for the removal of the Judges who have disgraced their office. Education is a pass port into good society wherever, found. The young man or woman who has a good educa tion is possessed of a jewel of priceless value, and yet how often is it under valued. We do not appreciate the val ue of an education as we should and pass our youthful days building air castles for the future, all unconscious of the fact that we are letting pass by unnoticed one, of the , surest founda tions of suceess; a good education. Wb agree with , the Wilmington Messenger in which it says there, is much talk of political independence. That means with some a splitting up of the democratic party. A man can be so independent as a republican to be a populist, or so independent as a demo, crat to be a republican. There are but two parties of consequence, or " that mean much, in this country. You must be one or the other, or indeed be so independent as to belong to no party. If you are an independent do not pretend , to be either a republican or a democrat, but be a. "mugwump," and neither run with the hare nor hold with'the hounds. If you break. up the democratic party you destroy the only party of the : people, and leave the country helplessly bound by the repub lican party that is not of the people or for the people, but of plutocracy, and for the reign of monopoly, high crush ing taxes and practical . slavery. Choose ye? If republicanism beright tie to it and swing corners with it, and ehow your colors. Do not call your self by another name. If democracy be the thing a government by the peo ple then tie to it and die by it. Be something either fish, flesh, fowl or good red herring, WASHINGTON LETTER. ' From Oar fiegalar Correspondent. , Washington, March 27, 1901. The Republican syndicate, . which had made extensive and expensive prep arations to loot the Philippines, under public land and timber concessions. are making things warm for - the ad ministration and demanding that prom ises made to them be kept.; There is one obstacle the Hoar a mend mem which was added to the Philippines amendment to the Army bill. Al though' that amendment specifically prohibits the granting ' of those con cessions, the representatives of the looting syndicate are demanding that it be ignored, and some of them are claimine that ' Secretary Root favors meetiDcr their demands . N. : The traditional bull in a china-shop did not create more consternation than Representative Babcock, of Wisconsin is creating among the trust' bound re publican bosses by talking up the mer its of his .anti-trust bill, which ne in troduced near the close of the last Congress, and which he will re-intro duce It will be remembered that the bill,. as introduced, provided for a re Deal of the duty on all manufactured steel and iron, its avowed purpose be. ing to prevent the big steel trust mak ing our people pay extortionate prices for its products.-.-. Mr. Babcock; .who is now in Washington, has received jo much 7 encouragement of -support for his bill, that he has announced his in tendon to broaden it, soas to hit two more trusts tin plate and, plate glass by adding clauses repealing Hhe' tariff on nlate glass and tin plate., tie has I o also served notice on the trust bound reDublicans that the . bill shall not be pigeonholed in Committee, and upon republicans in general, that if they do npt join him in curbing the - trusts they will see a party put in power that will. It is certain that the democrats wilt support the bill in the next Con gress, and U Mr. jjaDCOCK can gei as many republican votes as he thinks he can, all the power of the trusts cannot prevent its passage by the House. S Senator Burrows has dressed up the bugaboo of a reduction in the Con gressional representation of those states which have disfranchised illiterate voters, and is coddling its daddy. He has also discovered and announced a veritable mare's nest that Congress has authority to make a new Congress ional apportionment at any time. . J.1 Pierpont Morgan had a loDg pri vate conference with Senator Hanna in Washington a day or . two ago. It was given out that the conference was in regard to a new, annex to the bog steel trust, to control all vessels engag ed in carrying iron . ore on the great takes, Mr. Hanna being heavily inter ested in that traffic. It is also highly probable that Mr. Morgan issued a few orders for the administration to follow in dealing with his trusts and other interests, preferring to give those orders to the man to whom he gave his big campaign contribution, rather than directly to Mr. McKioley. Through the efforts of a rival con cern a scandal that was hushed up by the War Department a . year ago has become public. The Dnggs-Seabury Gun and Ammunition Company, which was given free use of government machinery in the Frankfort Arsenal, to enable it to fill its contracts with this government, and while it was "months behind in its deliveries, it dropped U. work and accepted two contracts of. similar work from the government of Colombia, using the machinery be longing to this government to make them. When Secretary Root's atten tion was called to the matter, he asked the contractors to make ah ey plana toin, which they did by saying that the Colombian contracts were profitable and that they needed the money, or words to that effect. And Secretary Root accepted that as a satisfactory explanation. But the end is not yet The rival company is threatening a suit in Court, and in any event the matter wilt be heard from in Congress, Governor Odell, of New York, who has jumped into notoriety by' his cast, ing off Boss Piatt's collar,- is be ing groomed, according to inside Washington gossip, as New York's anti-Teddy candidate for the Republi can Presidential nomination in 1904. Senator Fairbanks continues to be poken of as the administration candi date, but the man the administration really wishes to see nominated and will get nominated if there is the slightest chance of doing so without splitting the party, is Marcus A. Hanna. Of course it is Hanna's cue now to pooh- pooh aDy talk of his being- a "candi date, but all the same he intends to get that nomination if he can. The Hanna-McKinley crowd real ize that they have no cinch in the State campaign in Ohio this year, so they are trying to placate all the hostile ele ments within the - republican- party. They threw a sop to the Ami Saloon League by letting it become known that Lieut. Gov. Caldwell, who is Counsel for the State Liquor Dealer's Association, would not be renominated, and then to prevent any disgruntle ment among the liquor men, promised Caldwell that he should receive a good eaerai appointment. ,In addition. they have made sure that Senator Foraker's friend will do no kicking, by promising hira that his candidacy for re-election should be endorseed by the state convention. Still, with all that they seem to be ahaid that the demo crats will Carry the state. No longer will the school children be bothered with the question of what State in the union has two capitals. An amendment. to theRhode Island constitution was adopted : at . the last election which does away withthe capi tal at Newport, and henceforth the one capital city will be. Providence. Some of the census enumerators in Maryland are accused of giving some of the counties more population than they are entitled to. Generally speak ing the kick has . been against the enumerators because they didn't find people enough. . : v I had a runniDcrsore on mv leir for seven years," writes Mrs. James Forest, of Chippewa Falls, Wig., "and spent Jhundreds of dollars in trying to get it healed. Two boxes of Banner Salve en tirely cured it." No other salve bo Leal- ng. W. G. Thomas, - COTTON PLANTERS TAKE HEED. In a recent issue of the Atlanta Constitution, W. G. Raoul, who en joys the reputation of being one of the most distinguished American finan ciers, writes a letter of warning to the cotton planters of the South, in which he advises the farmers against an in crease in tie acreage this year. "The very preparation for a large acreage," be says, "is one of its most potent in fluebces for depressing the price Pf cotton during the last half pf the sea son." He says further : "The be wave that is now sweeping, over the market is largely supported by the, al ieged infoniiation of extensive prepara tions for an increased acreage and for a largely increased yield by a more lib eral use of fertilizers. This, of course is only one of the many arguments and assertions made to depress prices, bet it is one of the most potent and is be ing effectively used in the face of one of the strongest statistical conditions for sustaining prices that has existed fo many years, not excepting last .sea son." ' commenting on JUr. Kaoul s ar,ti cle the Atlanta Constitution says: We warned our people that they were being led into a pitfall by being encouraged to plant a large acreage of cotton. We have good authority for the assertion that the bears, represent ed in London, New York . and New Orleans, have perfected such an organ ization to tumble the prices of next September as was never before brought together. Two years ago Henry M Mill, in the interest of the spinners of h,urope,N persistently circulated reports that the crop of that year would reach the twelve-million mark, the purpose being to keep the price down to five cents, then ruling until the first six weeks of the selling season should de liver the. crop into the hands of the financiers. Let the farmers of the south remember the dreary Tuly and August of 1898, and reflect that they are today even in a worse - cond because unguarded. The conspiracy of '98 was broken up, and the impoverished farmers came into their own, but the victory, as yet, is only temporary. The enemy has cnangea iront in order the better to -1 deceive. The plan, well understood in London, is to boom the prospects 01 the farmer who plants largely Henry M. Mill, in bull guise, is doing his best to maintain the theory of a short crop now expirmg and, by im plication, a certain ten cent . price for cotton ip beptember. Such an im press ion of a cotton famine going over into next year would induce planters to cultivate a wide acreaee. In this work Mr. Mill is assisted by the Mill orothers, ot London, who tearfully piay 10 tne assertion made. The united purpose is to secure, the planting of a large acreage. The im pression kept up for two months will find the seed in the ground, the plan ters covered from head to. foot with cotton obligations, the acreage raised from 22,000,000 acres to probably 30, 000,000. . ' Then the conspiracy will reveal it self! Tbe largest acreage on record! The biggest crop of the generation in sight! n. A-uriaiiment of manufacturing all around! A smashing of prices! Ten. nine and eight cents giving way to six, nve, probably four! . Where, then, will the planter stand? In urging the cotton planters to pro vide for home supplies ' and second for a cotton acreage reduced even from that of last year, ' The Constitution speaks for a continuation of the pros perity of the past two years. It must be recollected that two years ago the planters' victory was largely'aided bv financiers in miscellaneous interests who, for tbe first time, recognized the act that their prosperity was wound up with that of the agriculturists.
