Buxtcn's pure, food bllr passed sec The Star has received the following with reference to the. movement for I the establishment of the tourCtt hotel In this city and the same Is cheerfully published t The committee which was appointed to solicit subscriptions for the propos ed new hotel, will begin to call on the business people this afternoon. It is to b? hoped that every business man who feels pride in Wilmington, will subscribe, for it will be the beginning of a new -era for the city, it is pointed out that the business man who puts mocey in thU project can feel that it win nol enly help the town, but be an investment for him. Modern hotels have been built In cities which, hava net the advantage of Wilmington, and have paid their stockholders a good return lor their money. Charlotte, for Instance, j smaller town. .Iran this. also aa inland town, having no summer report to draw thousands of1 people, has recently completed a $250,000 ho tel and has leased it for a rental of six per cent exclusive of insurance and taxes. This is by far -a. better in estment than a good amny .stocks and bonds that are sold these days. It is true, as someone 3ias said, that that city has more trains than Wilmington, yet it is also true tha t Charlotte before it built this hotel, had twice as many rooms in their hotels as we have In ours to-day. Then, if they, with a smali?r populations, and no summer resort, and having double the accom racda'Jon in their hotels than we have, cculd feel that a new and modern hotel would be an investment to their town and stockholders, why cannot out peo pla aavo the same spirit and courage? WInstcu-Salem has recently completed a modern hotel, costing $175,000, and the committee has been informed by one of tho leading men in that city that it Is the best investment the town has ever made. That city has not one half the population cfi Wilmington, yet its business men had enough public spirit, courage, and belief in the fu ture of their town to risk money. .Of courso there have -been hotels, that County Commissioners Disap prove of Compromise Verdict in Murder in Court.

McEachern and Commis sionors William F. Robertson, W. F. Alexander, H. L. Vollera and, M.'W, Divine- The action was taken afteA a deliberation of some length, Commis sioner Divine, expressing sympathy with. the tenor of the paper, but doubt ing the propriety of the step. Discuss ing tne merits of tho cases of the ne groes, the members of thia Board were unanimous in itheir opinion that the defendants should have most certainjy been tried for their lives instead of fee ing let off with ipenatentiary sentences. Commissioner Robertson, prefacing the readiag of the paper with a tes timony to the high character and integ rity or uie solicitor of the district, re pudiating ins absurd, reports that Mr. Duffy was opposs-d rto capital pimishT ment and disclaiming any '. disrespect to the Court, offered the following, which was seconded by MrJYoIlers.: 'Recently, wha t seemed jo be two cold-blooded, dastardly homicides, occurred- in this ccimm.unity.

If he wants to make his fight hotels, which did not have the advan tages of this city; and have found them a good investment. It is utterly-Impossible for tho committee to guaran tee a mao that he will get a certain dividend on his investment. We can only say, what others have done, why cannot we? Wilmington Is the largest city in Xorth Carolina with a climate that is deal, offering to the tourist many op portunities for pleasure. We have an ex cellent harbor for boat riding, the finest roada for automobile riding, an abundance of game for the sportsman. an excellent country club, having next to th? finest golf Jinks in. the State and within nine miles of the best beach on the Atlantic Coast, which one can reacn wttnm .tu minutes or electric cars. Are these not 'advan tages creater than any town in the S!ate? The kind of hotel which we are de sirous of building here, will bring a good many strangers, who. seeing the advantages of he city, will invest their money and advertise the city to their friends. We know that it Is not necessary to We realize the difficulty often, of ob taining Evidence, but that obstacle can hardly be claimed for the recent homicida referred to. It is our firm opinion that the culprits should have been placed on trial for th5er lives; that & verdict in the nrst degree would have resulted certainly no less verdict than the compromise made, would have been obtained. Such trial would have been due warning to the lawless element that the justica oH New Hanover County in accord with the protective legislation of the State, would demand a life for any life felo niously taken and that there would be no escape from vigilant, earnest' pros ecution. "Homicides have prown dangerously com mop: and the tide of lawlessness cani only be held back by relentless enforcement of law. Life is held too cheap and the penalty of murder too easily escaped. The safeguards about human life are seriously weakened and the menace should at onco be abated, therefore, be it "Resolvedrl That this matter be re- spectfjiHy and earnestly called to the attention, of the Solicitor of this dis- say any more, as we believe our citi-1 trict, with the suggestion that the val- zais see the many advantages this I ue or numan me ana tne sarety or itnis hotel will bring and are therefore go ing to tfend this project their hearty co operation. Let it be not said that Wilmington, tho, metropolis of the State, has not the courage, and public spirit, to put Its money in a proposi tion which other towns of -lesser ad vantages have found it a successful in vestment. We trust that when the committee calls the citizens will sub scribe liberally and feel that they are putting their money where it wiH be an investment of rvalue. Republican party.

Mr. Divine fully agreed with the sentiment of the resohition by Mr. Rob ertson, but he doubted if it was in the province of the Board to taike action in this respect Mr. Robertson, said, in a further discussion of the propriety of -the action that he had understood that the question of -exT.-"nse had entered into the matter of comprondsing these cases, but he, for one, and he believed his fair colleagues were willing to bear vji. nixy Midi vvueic uuuiaii I Mff wfl.ci in th lu7jifnnA Mr Prhprt;on further said that it was not' economy anyway for others, holding the law Inadequate would not hesitate to com mit other crimes, burdening the docket Air. Divine rather thought it was a question for the grand Jury, while the resolution expressed the views of mem bers, such an expression should come from the grand Jury. Mr. Robertson said resort to the grand jury was a harsher method. The grand; jury was ia body to hear things for criminal ac tion?i there was no purpose to dothe Solicitor an injustice ; the resolution was merely, an expression .from the Board, acquainted withV" local N condi tions,. and-r wai3 not an .arraignment of the- Solicitor.1 The . province of the County.

John Henry Rhoe is pastor, is once again Involved in turmoil and ..strife, : Tlje trouble jail dates back to the Rev. John Henry's indictment some time ago on a charge of criminal intimacy with a female member of his flock, which charge was removed to Brunswick county, with the result that the oily parson was acquitted. Notwithstanding the Rev. John Henry's exoneration by the courts, murmurings began to go up from certain members Of re congre gation who would unfrock the divine in spite of the prosaic "not guilty" of the Brunswick jury. .A little while ago civil proceedings were sought to eject the Rev. Rhoe as pastor, but the reverend had a following himself and they and he declared that sooner would the rock" of Gibraltar move than he from the pulpit of the sanctuary. Rev Rhoe continued to hold services at the appointed hours in spite of the .belligerents, who several, times made an unsuccessful- effort to pack the church auditorium with their fol lowers and take possession of the ser vices. " The past Sunday, for once, they were . successful. Shortly before the hour appointed for the night service it " is reported that the belligerents marshaled their forces and took seats in the front When the Rev, Rhoe arrived the congregation of usurpers had set up a hymn that shook the rafters, according to alL reports. Un daunted at this, Rhoe strode down the aisle and into the pulpit, assum ing the chair with "some measure of gravity, at the same time beckoning one of his deacons to the chancel. The deacons, for another came up about the same time, Were requested to go to the choirmaster of the bellig erents and convey the request from the pastor that he close up. The choir master would do nothing of the kind and the music, if anything, in creased, in volume, tilling the church and the street for blocks around.
