' " ' ' '' AQE QUESTION - r- : - ) JN A GREAT RECONCILIATION MEETING ALL THE DIFFERENT INTERETS OF HYDE DRAWN TOGETHER LAST WEDNESDAY A meeting, the final - outcome '-.j of which will mean muck to Eastern North Carolina, if it results success fully was held in the Southern Hotel parlors in this city last Wednesday. It was a meeting, to discuss thf drainage proposition in Hyde County, in general and to drain Mattamuskeet Lake in particular or rather it was a meeting to effect a reconciliation among the waring element in that section of Hyde County. The Government has made provis ions for the drainage by surveys etc., the lake and adjoining lands. The majority of the citizens of that section favor the movement but there are quite a number who object to be ing including in the drainage district This meeting was called through the instrumentality of Hon. John H, Small and was presided over by him. He explained the object of the meet ing and in doing this he made a splendid speech in behalf of the movement He preached harmony of action, and his speech was calculated to put his hearers in the proper frame of mind - ' Mr. Smill was followed by Hon. J. C. B. Eringhaus, attorney for the Juniper Bay farmers. He too spoke in a conciliatory strain that will do much to harmonize the people. Then a general discussion followed, in which a number of prominent Hyde County farmers participated. The general tone of the remarks in the general Discussion was that all wanted harmony of action, and that they, desired the work to advance slowly to accomplish this. Mr. J. O. Wright of the department, of drainage at Washinton, ). C, spoke at some length in the interest of the movement. He showed by his remarks that he is an expert on the proposi tion to drain swamp lands and that he knows what is needed in Eastern North Carolina. It was agreed in this meeting that all litigtion that has been instituted in Hyde County over the drainage proposition shall be suspended, until after another meeting has been held in Hyde County in the near future,, sometime early in. August. The following gentlemen were here last Wednesday attending the meet ing: Messrs. T. H. B. Gibbs, H. C. Carter, Geo. B Carter, A. L. Cuthell, Frank Cuthrell, Daniel Cradle, Benj. Nixon. I. F. Gibbs, S. T. Cuthrell, T. B. Jones, W. H. Jones, H. B. Cra dle, Geo. Makely, AugeneBell, S. S. Mann, E. P. Carter. Drs. P. H. Sim mons, R. N. Cartwright, M. Makely, Jr, from Hyde County. Mr. Makely of Edenton, John A. Wilkinson of Belhaven; NO PIANO AFTER 10 O'CLOCK Washington, July, 13. In the Po lice Court here Judge Ivory G. Kim ball announced that piano playing af ter 10 o'clock at night was as viisor derly as cursing and fighting and he would fine the occupants of any house brought before him for keeping music going until a late -hour. "I want to impress upon you andlerator, price etc., see Eagle Grocery, your friends who were with you,'' said Judge Kimball to Raymond Le man, the defendant, "that playing the piano after hours will not be toler ated in this city. We can pot live in a city like this, all crowded together, unless everybody has some consider ation for the rights of his neighbors. No man or woman has a right to play the piano or sing after his or her neighbors are asleep or indeed trying to sleep." 1 MMHMMHMMHBMHMMHBHHHIMMMMnMMnMMaaHMMMBMHMMHMHMMMriaMMHMMa?

'Yes, Brown commenced suit against me early last, spring in JNew York, setting up a fab- tftofts damage of $38,000, I appeared and demurred. The court sustained Several of the people of this place my demurer upon the ground, that he attended services at Mt. Zinai Sun set out no just or meritorous cause J day evening. of action in his complaint. He asked to amend and for 20 days in which to do so He was granted the time,! but failed to amend. He applied for, and got a second 20 days. During the second extention he commenced suit in the United States Circuit Court at Raleigh and served me last week copying largely word for word from his New York complaint and alleged . his damages at only $3500. j "What about the merits of these ! suits was asked." j Mr. Aydlett said. "I do not now care to discuss the cases outside of the court house, where they belong to be heard. I do not try my clients cases on the streets nor in the newspapers and you will pardon me if I treat my own in the. same way. ' He added. "My, friends know me well enough to know there is nothing of merit in these cases. We want to say the bitter attacks made upon Mr. Aydlett have all fall en flat. The people know who is in spiring them and the motive. Mr. Aydlett is not only honored and esteemed by the people in Jhis community, but he stands for all that is good and noble in life.
