SiJtMon. f and eg A CURRENT COMMENT. : ) ; SINCLAIR DISGUSTED. One gathers from an interview giv en the Fayetteville correspondent of The Wilmington Star one day last week that Solicitor N. A., Sinclair is disgusted with recorders' courts and will not be a candidate to succeed himself as solicitor. That leaves the field clear, so far as is known at present, for Mr. S. B. McLean, who announced his candidacy some time The Robesonian wanted to notice Mr. Sinclair's announcement in its is- SUe Monday but was so crowded that it had to wait. Mr. Sinclair in that interview talk ed like a man peeved. Listen: "lie declared that the recorders' courts had made a patchwork of our judi cial system and rendered the office of solicitor so far from lucrative that it was not worth the time necessary to devote to it." Unh-huh. Looks like reducing the salary of the solici tor is the main crime of recorders' 'courts. "Over against this," the the Statesville Landmark points out, ! "may be set the prompt trial of cases, saving the feeding of defendants in jail to await a regular term of court; j the disposition of numerous small cases which would consume time and increase the expense of the Superior I Courts." Referring to salaries for solicitors, Mr. Sinclair says: "But you cannot get a salary bill through the Legislature. Every lit tle cross-roads paper which happens to be down on the lawyers and all the ignorant demagogues in the Leg islature stand up and say it is a bill to benefit the lawyers. And some people will kill anything they think is going to help a lawyer. As a mat ter of' fact most of the solicitors would have lost by the salary bill they proposed last winter, which provided for a minimum salary of $1,600" Seeing as how nearly every newspa per in the State has favored salaries for solicitors in time past and the so licitors themselves have defeated it every time it came up, that read queer. The Statesville Landmark again puts in an oar and sets Mr. Sin- lcliis riehiaSjQUqws correction, as a matter or iact most of the newspapers of the State favor the salary system for solicitors and all other officers. Up to very recent years, all attempts to place solicitors on a salary have been defeated, not by the "little cross-roads papers" and the "ignorant demagogues in the Leg islature," but by the self-seeking law yers the solicitors themselves, who knew they could make more money by the fee system. Since the record er's courts have cut down the business for the solicitors they have become strong advocates of the salary plan. We've in mind one solicitor who some years ago wrote letters opposing the salary bill before the Legislature the letters can be produced. A little later after a number of recorder's courts had been established in his district and cut out much business, this same soli citor appeared as a strong advocate for the salary system. Solicitor Sinclair is .either poorly informed or he thinks the public doesn't know or doesn't remember some things. o AGGRAVATING MISTAKES. Among the things that a newspaper man does or leaves undone that makes ihim want to kick himself around the block,, one of the .most aggravating is to neglect to mention somebody in some connection when you J were so sure you could not forget that you failed to J make a note of it. Once there was a : newspaper man who failed to make I mention of the fact that his wife i had left town, failed to mention it I simply because he neglected to make a note of it in his notebook as he was so sure he could not possibly overlook so important an item. You could not say he forgot it or that it was unim portant to him and not worth men tioning or why, confound it, you don't know how it happened. Just so. But that is another story, to use Kip. ling's classic phrase. The above was written as prelimi nary to an explanation of a certain unaccountable omission of a name by The Robesonian man recently, and blessed if the explanation of what could not be explained did not run on for' more than half a column. So when the paper was being made up last Monday it was found something had to be left out and The Robesonian man was obliged, much against his will, to write a very brief explanation and cut out the long one of which long explanation he was rather proud, because it proved that the omission of the name was made simply and solely because of the fact that the man whose name was omitted was the most important man in the bunch paradoxial as that may seem. 'Twas ever thus. As Tommy Moore once remarked I never had a dear gazelle To glad me with its soft dark eye, But I let it fall upon the floor And always on the buttered side. Even so. And if vou know how a But you don't so what's the use! ' o 1 Our Parkton correspondent tells ! about the authorities of that town ! getting bloodhounds the other day to : trace robbers and though the trail was only an hour or so old the blood hounds failed to make good didn't seem to know a thing about it; and our correspondent naivelv obspi-vp that" he is forced to believe that the dogs are either untrained or are no good. Tell you what you do next time, you get some groundhogs, or ome rabbits or some pussycats; or if none of these is handy, go to a store and buy a picture of a dog. Anything or its picture will do as well as bloodhounds. We have not seen it but understand that a petition is being circulated for commutation of the sentence of Mc Kenzie, who killed his deceased wife's brother in Scotland county, from elec trocution to life imprisonment. A j jury of 12 Robeson county men heard the evidence, listened to the argu ment of counsel on both sides, and j rendered a verdict of guilty. The j Supreme Court has said there was no j rror in the trial. If the sentence is j commuted to life imprisonment, after i the man has served a few years of his term another petition will be circulat ed to have him pardoned, and no doubt he will be pardoned. The Robesonian I does not pass upon the mi'n's guilt, but if he is guilty he should 1 pay the penalty. Else why not be I frank about it and say that the death , penalty is only for the poor and the friendless? O i In remitting frr his paper Mr. W. ; J. McLeod of Red Springs writes in i friendly fashion as follows: "I notice, that your city is having some trouble ! 1 with its water supply. I would stig-; gest that your city fathers put down j , a pipe to our town, wnere we nave '. much more than we can use of as i fine water as there is in the State; ' and to know that we were sharing this blessing with our city friends would give our people great pleasure." j Much obliged. We wish we could con- nect with the excellent water sup ' ply of Red Spring, but as that is im ! possible we may have to ask Red Springs to quit polluting the only source of a water supply for Lumber ton by dumping its sewage into Lum ber river. . 0 "L. T. T..s" plaint about distract ing early (morning whistles has, brought a friendly invitation from "I B. T." for him to "spend the Twen tieth of May in the Celebration of Independence Square, where peace and unity of spirit will prevail." Do it, "L. T. T.", but before you go you must solemnly promise not to let "I, B. T." do anything to you that vll make you think Independence Square is a brook-gladdened meadow dotted o'er, with kind-faced , cows standing, TTriee-deeD fn " clover. ii,Hts jauiet ana peacerui spot, is inaepenaence Square, if one is quiet and peaceful inside as what place is not? . o Prof. ILL. Edens-of Lumberton Jiad an article in Thursday's issue of The Robesonian about some problems con. fronting the Indians of Robeson coun ty that will repay thoughtful reading. Prof Edens was formerly superinten dent of the Indian Normal School at Pembroke and understands the thoughts and aims and purposes of this race as few men of any other race do understand them. Patient and sympathetic study of problems that confront the Indians in their strug gle to educate their children and maintain their racial integrity will help. O It is the best sort of news that the Civic Association has been revived. The ladies did some mighty good work when this association was active and it will do good work again. The fault was never with the ladies anyhow. They did all they could. The trouble was that the men did not give them the support that they deserved in their efforts to make Lumberton a cleaner, more healthful and more beautiful place in which to live. The Chamber of Commerce has pledged its support and the ladies will go to work again with a will. . o When asked for a statement about his election to the Senate Mr. Underwood said he gave his friends all the cred it and if any was due himself it was that he stayed on the job and that the people showed by their votes that they wanted a man to stay on the job. That's what. That's what the people of North Carolina showarrlast year when they re-elected Senator Sim mons. It is surprising the number of peo ple who can tell positively where each Federal reserve bank should be locat ed, and why. A lot of time and worry and money would have been saved if these learned ones had been requested to name the cities and districts some moons ago. O A mighty good meeting of the Chamber of Commerce that was held on the 9th inst. Those who missed ! it missed a treat. The talks by Dr. Stiles on domestic problems and ma laria two different addresses were fine, entertaining as well as instruc. tive. Referee in Bankruptcy for Sixth Di vision. Fayetteville Dispatch. Following the re-districting of the State as to the Federal bankruptcy referee divisions Mr. James C. Mac Rae of this city has been appointed re- . feree in bankruptcy for the sixth di vision by Judge H. G. Connor. Mr. MacRae's division, of which Fayette ville is the center, will include the counties of Cumberland, Harnett, Hoke, Lee, Scotland, Robeson, Bladen and that part of Sampson lying west of Black river and Great Caharie. Mr. MacRae is one of the best read lawyers in the State. He is an LL.B of the University of North Carolina. , He is a son of Justice J. C. McRae, late dean of the University Law . School. A Cure for Sour Stomach. Mrs. Wm. M. Thompson, of Battle Creek, Mich., writes: "I have been troubled with indigestion, sour stom ach and bad breath. After taking two bottles of Chamberlain's tablets I am well. These Tablets are splendid none better." For sale by all dealers., Say what you will, people you meet first judge you by the clothes you wear. In business or society, good raiment is a good recommenda tion. Nothing is so expensive as wearing old clothes or poor clothes. If you are out of a job, dress up or you can't get one; if you've got a position, put on a better "front" if you want better pay. We've got the good "front" for you, and OUR PRICES, as well as our clothes will "make a hit" with you.
