Editor W. O. Saunders, of Elizabeth
City, who was tried the past week for
criminal libel of Attorney E. F. Ayd

Form IK State Senator A. C. Green,
?rho was in the Legislature in 18S?.
iied at 11 o'clock Sunday night at his
home on Crabtree Creek, on the Mil

Things could easily be remedied by put
ting on s train to do freight work and
the passenger train then could make

From the many complaints being
handed around there seems to be some
thing wrong with the weights of the
eotton weigher at Louisburg. An in
vestigation should be made by the
Board of County Commissioners to the
end of clearing up the matter. Wheth
er there is really anv trouble or not the
influence of the reports is being nsed
against the Louisburg market and a
great deal of dissatisfaction has arisen.
The investigation should be made im
mediately that these conditions may be
remedied, if found to be true, otherwise
it will correct the impressions that hare
gooe broadcast and serve a vindication
to the weigher. As it now stank the
conditions are a reflection on both the
weigher and the market and should be
corrected.
