THURSDAY, September 21, 184H). ! H. A.. LONDON. Editor In last weete a issue of the Progressive Farmer is a comimmi-ia cation fsfesi Maj. William A. Guth rie on tlaar disfranchisement of the free negsoes by the convention of 1835. Up to that date the free negroes voted - just the same as the white people, and in oie eoeu ties their votes decided the result of the election. When the onstitutional con tention met ia 1835 many amend ments were made to our State con stitution, and among them was Shis otwr to d'iifrjauchiso all free aeffroes. Amctr& the ablest and aaost earnest- Advocates of this amendment whs Hon. Hugh McQueen- of this (Chatham) county. He made a very able speech in its advocacy,, and much that he then said would apply with equal force at this time. There is certainly much more Deasor and necessity now for dis franchising only the illiterate ne groes than there was in 1835 for disfrasehising,hthe frfee negroes. The amendment adopted by our lathers in 1835 disfranchised ,all free negroes, hot merely those who could not read or write. The amendment now proposed for our adoption will disfranchise only those negroes who cannot read or write. Surely then this last amendment is far more proper and reasonable than that adopted by ur fathers in 1835! Ana it is certainly much more needed. There1 was much less danger from the free negroes vot ing in 1835 than there is now from illiterate negroes voting. The free aegroes in 1835 were a very small per cent, of our population, and certainly were not anything like a majority in any county. But now, m several counties the illiterate aegroes are in a majority and iave a much greater and more aangerous innuence m carrying the elections than the free negroes Sad in 1835. That was a notable array of Jistinsruished lawyers at Ashe- ville, last week, arguing the rail road injunction case, and their speeches (on both sides) weie un usually able and learned. Judge Srmonton reserved his decision, and will not render it for three or tour weeks. Both sides are hope wimiu waiui vuuc ne .win. ueciue ;;ai their favor, j. ms important case is an ac tion brought by the railroad com panies in this; State to restrain the Corporation Commission from assessing their property for tax ation at what they allege is an un just and unequal valuation. When Judge Simon ton, some weeks ago, issued a temporary restraining or der there was a srreat clamor raised and much indignation ex pressed by some persons and pa pers at what they denounced an outrageous and illegal usurpation f power and assumption of juris diction by Judge Simonton. But to show the folly and injustice of sucba clamor it is to be noted that last week, before the opening of the argument, Judge Simonton asked the lawyers on both sides i they had any doubt about , his having jurisdiction in this action and not one expressed the slight est doubtl The "Oceanic" is the name of a steamship that arrived at . New York last week from England, and ft is the largest vessel ever built emg larger than :- the "Great Eastern," which was launched in 1860 and was too unwieldly for practical wse. The Oceanic was launched last January and this is her first trip to the United States. Her dimensions are 704 feet long, 72 feet beam and 68 feet depth, with draught, light of 22 feet and loaded 32 feet. She reg isters 17,000 tons. , Her. engines were designed to develop 45,000 lorse-power. Her coal capacity fs about G,OO0 tons, and .she con sumes about 500 tons of coal daily. She is rigged with three masts and is equipped with two funnels, each of 20 feet in diameter and 80 feet above the fire grates. It seems wonderful that such a vast structure eonld be so made as to safely cross the Atlantic ocean. ALL friends of higher education va North Carolina will be pleased and gratified to hear of the Uni versity opening so very propit iously. The present attendance lar exceeds that at any previous epemng in the long existence of that venerable and most excellent Ufititution of learning. National Export Expo was formally opened at iladelpliia, on last Thursday, and will be open until November SOIL. Although very little lias very been published in this section in regard to this exposition, yet it is ver-v important one. It is de signed to be a portrayal of tne practical scientific attainments of the American people in the realms of commerce, trade and industry.'-' Exhibits have been sent not only from most of the States of the Union, but also from South America and Europe. A Bold Highwayman. Napa, Cal., Sept. 14. The Ca- 1 is: toga & Jjakcport stage was held up today by a solitary highway man, who made off with the ex press box. , At the scene of the robbery, the road runs, through a hcavv uudergrowth, and coming suddenly around the curve the stage driver was confronted by a masked robber, who covered him with his shot-gun, and ordered him to stop. The passengers Avere then commanded to dismount from the stage and were drawn up in a row, while the highwayman abstracted the express box of Wells, Fargo & Co., but left the United States mail bag. The highwayman then turned his attention to the row of eight frightened passengers whom he commanded to deposit on the ground their money and valuables. lev. C. F. Coy, pastor of the Methodist church at Middletown, handed the bandit 5, remarking: "I am only a poor preacher and that is all I have." Upon this statement the high wayman handed the minister back $1 in change. "All right, paid," he said, "here's one simoleon for luck." Newton Stiff, an old resident of Middletown, had a considerable sum in his purse, but slipped the wallet inside his long boot, giving the robber only the loose silver in his xocket. In all about $75 cash was secured from the passengers in addition to watches, chains and trinkets. . The robber then plunged into the thicket, which adjoins the load,, and the last heard of him was a report winch probably in dicated the blowinsr off the lock on the express box. University Opens Propitiously. Special to the Observer. Chapel Hill, Sept. 16. The University will open Monday with an attendance that breaks all re cords before or since the war Four hundred and seventeen stu dents have registered up to this afternoon. This is a gain of 82 over last year at this time, great as the numbers then were, a gam of 25 per cent. There are 1P7 new -i . 1 1 . students already registered, rep resenting 87 counties, 11 States and Japan. There is a notable increase in the law and medicine departments. The new men are well prepared and enter the regular courses re fleeting great credit on the pre paratory schools. The buildings jtrfs all full and the town is fillinp- rapidly. The beautiful Carr build ing is sadly needed and other dor mitories besides. The picked youth of the State are here, full of enthusiasm and ready for work Tonight's train brings many more and all next week the numbers will grow. Two Significant facts. From the Raleigh News aud Observer. During the first two months of the present fiscal year the govern ment has expended $102,9G9,090, 33 of which $21,066,489.81 has gone for the support of the civil government and all the rest $79,159,845.64 has gone to the support of the army and the pay ment of pensions. We are spend mg iour aoiiars ior war ana war burdens to one dollar for civil ex penses. Are the people ready for such a burden of militarism? The Buffalo Express calls at tention to the fact that our taxes are taking on a new form. For merly most of the tax was raised from custom duties. For the first two months of the new fiscal year the receipts from the tariff were $37,518,151.53, while the receipts from the indirect i fit j i taxes oi tne internal revenue were $52,559,613.96. .,- .b A Costly Joke. Charleston, S. C, Sept. 15. Schem, a Hebrew cross roads merchant oir St. Helena Island, sued ex-Senator Don Can er.m for $10,000 damages for a horsewhip ping inflicted in November, 1896, and the Ueaufort county grand jury returned a verdict for $850 in favor of the plaintiff. .Senator Cameron was not presr ent at the trial,' but his attorney, Congressman Elliott, claimed that Schem had been selling liquors to - 1 V i t nesrroes on Cameron s nun tins' preserves, near Coffin's point, on St. Helena Island, and that ti e alleged assault and battery was made in fun and as a joke, and was not resented at the time. A company has Jbeen organized at Durham for the erection of a $400,000 cotton mill. The mill will be located in the eastern su burbs of the city and work will begin at once. This is the mill Colonel Carr has had in contem plation for some months. It will be one of the largest mills in the State. Washington Letter. From our Keirular Unrreannnrten'. Washington, Sept. 15. 1899. The capitalists who were tryin ior to s:et Mr. McKinley to mix this government up in the affairs of Santo Domingo have withdrawn the pressure, because they now believe that their man, Jiminez, who is already at the head of the provisional government, will be peaceably elected President by the people of Santo Domiugo, and their business interests over there will be taken care of by him, with out the direct assistance of this government. Private advices from Santo Domingo say that United States consular officials are quiet ly aiding Jiminez all they can. If that be true, they have received a tip from Washington, as other- wise they would not dare to do such a thing. The, sudden discovery, by the administration, that Porto Rico needs a civil srovernmeut and the announcement that it is to be given one in advance of Congressional action, is intended more to delaj' the establishment of a permanent government on the island by Con- ess than for the benefit of the Porto liicans. Inasmuch as the proposed civil government is to be entirely appointive from the toi to the bottom, and that its 1 . ii . a every act must De approved in Washington before becoming ef fective, it is a rather wide stretch of the imagination to call it "home rule" for Porto Pico, as the ad ministration shouters are doing. A . Republican Senator who is classed as an administration man, although his friends know that he rather inclined to oppose than to support anything leading towards imperialism, said of this new Porto llicau scheme: "I believe that it is the first step towards influenc ing1 Congress to defer establish iug a permanent form of govern ment for Porto Pico until after the Presidential election. Once this Fresident-inade government is in operation, plausible' argu ments can be presented to wait a year and see how it works, in or der to sret the benefit of the ex perience, before providing for a permanent government." A New York newspaper man Mr. H. C. Green who was in Washington this week, said of the Democratic outlook: "The New York delegation to the Demo cratic National Convention will be unanimous for W. J. Bryan. His popularity with the rank and file of Tammany was too great to be opposed by Mr. Crocker, even if he had been disposed to antasronise the Nebraskan. But Mr. Croker is for Bryan heartily, and being a far-seeing politician, he recognizes that Bryan as a Presidential can didate is by no means a forlorn hope. Thousands of patriotic Americans who do not agree with him on the financial question re gard the imperialistic policy of this administration as fraught with more danger to the republic than free silver. There are other thousands who will oppose the Republican ticket because its leaders are allied with the rapa cious trusts, and because they feel that the only hope of relief lrom their tyranny lies in the triumph of the Democracy. One of the most disgraceful things connected with the war in the Philippines was the detention this week, at Hong Kong, by British officials, of a steamship on the way from Manila to San Francisco, with United States troops. The steamship is one of those carrying the British flag which are under charter as troop ships, and the cause of her deten tion was tnat sue Had 400 more men aboard than she should have had. The answer to this charge by the War Department and by Otis was that she had only one more man aboard on the return trip than she carried from San Francisco. In other words, the British officials at Hong Kong are more considerate of the welfare of our soldiers than our own officials at San Francisco and Manila, who allowed this ship to take on 400 more men than she is allowed by the British maritime law to carry, were. Surely that is enough to bring blushes of shame to any American's face, unless he is past being ashamed of official mcom petency and negligence. A Joke On Freshmen. Raleigh Correspondence of Charlotte Observer. Some of the old students at the Agricultural and Mechanical Col lege played a practical joke on sixty of the freshmen last Sundajr, by telling them they were under orders to go to the Baptist Tab ernacle to attend the morning service. Four students, in uni form and with arms, appeared and escorted the sixty victims to the church. At the capitol square three of the escort "fell out," say ing they had to go on guard duty there, but one went on with the freshmen and quite a stir was created as .they marched into the church. The solitary escort de parted and the freshmen were left to get back tin protected. They told the president that thev did nt t like their escorts thus lpavinj? them. . About three years aero a nesro. named West Langley, mysteriously-disappeared in Nash county. Another negro, named Abe Harris, was arrested, and after being- in jail eigrht months, was tried for his murder and acquitted. Re cently, Langley has reappeared alive and unhurt; ; 'A Sa and Siranjje Tragedy. , Special to the Observer. ' Greensboro, Sept .16.-M. i 0. Jb. Cox died at Hill lop,, this county, last night. Her death may be said to record the last chapter of a very sad tragedy. ' Some time ago 1 mentioned that the libel suit against Mr. and Mrs. Cox was withdrawn. In brief summary the facts of the case are j as follows Mr. and Mrs. A. V. Ward lived i near by neighbors tolvlr. and Mrs. Cox. Ward was a section master on the Southern Railway, and the j Coxs were well-to-do farming peo- j pie. At first these couples were friendly, but soon there came slight disputes, then coolness, bit ternessa.nd enmity. Hatred of the Wards becamen, monomania with Mr. and Mrs. Cox. At Hill TP -he3r said scan dalous things about the section master and his wife, and in an ef fort to make him lose his position they wrote to the officials of the Southern in scurrilous, abusive terms of Ward. Finally, these letters came into the possession of yvard and he instituted a crim inal libel action against Mr. and Mrs. Cox, together with a civil suit fordamages. This occurred last spring. : . Abject, absolute fear took pos session pi Cox and his wife. Cox dropped his work, aud, in idleness, thought' and -"spoke only of 'the probable punishment for his ma licious speech. It preyed on him so that his mind gavo way, ana two months ago he was pro nounced a hopeless lunatic with one madness. Mrs. Cox came to Greensboro for trial in the last week of Au gust. ' The counsel for the plain tiffs had no heart m the prosecu tion and as humane men they met the attorneys for the defence and agreed that the case , should be dismissed. t Free, but with the ever-present memory of her terror, Mrs. Cox went home. There was no chance to forget. When she might have ceased brooding there was always before her the spectacle of her husband with dead brain in a bowed head, who waited, and wails for life-long living in an insane asylum. The strain was too great for her, poor soul, and no . she gave way and died. Completion in human misery has reached its iiwit in this case. Now there must be only sorrow for the dead and pity for the more than dead that lives. Always Doing Ccod. From the Durham tioruM The good deeds of General J. S. Carr are not 'circumscribed by race or color. His workw of chari ty, benevolence and humanity are ever in evidence whenever the oc casion arises for their exercise. The good ke' is constantly doing is to him the greatest satisfaction derived from his large wealth, aud the recipients of his benefactions are ever calling him blessed. And now, through the interven tion of General Carr,' the neck of Alex. Tate, colored, under sen tence to hang next month in Portsmouth for the murder oi Charles Msdone, also coloied, may be saved. Tate w!S once a serv ant of General Carr, who heard of his predicament and employed counsel to go before Judge Pren tiss, at Suffolk, and ask for un ar rest of judgment pending the ar -gument for a new trial, upon ti e grounds that the records m the case do not show that the prisoner was brought into court when a motion for a new trial was made by former counsel. Judge Pren tiss today reserved his decision. If he decides adversely, the case will be carried to the Court of Ap peals, as it is understood that General Carr has issued instruc tions that no pains or expense be spared to save Tate's life. Gen eral Carr speaks highly of the rn i - I young negro, xate protests his innocence. His alleged victim, Malone, was shot in a saloon. Tate had had a quarrel with him, but declares it was another man who fired the fatal shot. A Fatal Quarrel. Shelby, N. C, Sept. 15. Today a homicide occurred six miles from here. Bert Beam, a farmer, killed Dan Grigg, another farmer. Grigg's son went to the house of Beam, ;and - a quarrel ensued about two-dollars Briggs then ran up and threw 'a big rock at Beam and started, toward him, knife in hand. As he neared Beam, the deceased stooped to pick up a rock, and at that instant Beam struck him in the head with an axe which he picked up, and death followed in half an hour. Beam was cutting stove wood in front of his door when the fatal quarrel occurred. The affair is regretted, as both parties have good connections. Child Labor in Cotton Mills. Raleigh, N. C, Sept. 15. State Labor Commissioner Lacy today made a very interesting report on labor in cotton factories. This shows that while in 189G there were employed 6,822 men, 10,567 women and 6,046 children, there are now employed 14,950 men, an increase of 100 per cent.; 15,887 women, an increase of 50 per cent., and only 3,470 children, a decrease of 50 per cent. This decrease gives the com missioner great satisfaction. The number of spindles is now 1,200, 000, an increase of 33 per " cent, since 1896, and labor has increased in the same proportion. The State Sues Herself. Spertal to the News and Observer." ville, N, C, Sept, lG.-By ,-. Al- liot nif. Tim. pvpr known brousrht" .in North Carolina is the temporary injunc tion granted here this week l y Judge Simonton, to -the Atlantic and North Carolina' Railroad, re- t.tvainiiK nil Mf'jfo nnnntv. C,tT. . , fnwnKn-n officers from ' collecting the tax on the assess ment of 1899. 'The road is owned by the State at least-n.early all of it is and the suit could not have been brought except jwith the sanction and under the control of Governor Iiusse.il, representing the State. Hence we have the spectacle of the State suing itself. And having ordered, the suit brought, "His Excellency uo doubt feels be ought to defend it, and it would be amusing to see what sot of defence he could put up. But of that spectacle we are to be relieved by the incoming of a new administration for the road the last of this month. The case has been much dis cussed hero and two theories have been advanced as to the reason for bringing the suit. - The first is that it; is an at tempt to cheat the counties and towns through which the road runs out' of the difference in the tax levied in 1S99 aud that of 1898. And this for the purpose of mak ing a good financial showing for the outgoing Fusion administra tion of the road. The idea evidently is that each county having to fight the suit will feel that they, can't, afford it for the difference of tax coming to that county. The; second theory, and there have recently been several inci dents to give it color, is that the suit is brought at the suggestion of the railroads to help them mate it appear that private property has been undervalued and railroad property overvalued. The railroad attorneys, in their argument in the case just closed here, often re ferred to the fact that the road owned by the State and controlled by the Governor had brought a suit similar to theirs and making the same allegations as to prop erty valuations. But in no event, as stated above, can the case amount to anything. Three Mem Shot. Bichmond, &ept. 18. Late this afternoon at Charlottesville, Ya,, a shooting affray occurred on the main street, in which Police Of ficer I. b. Rail was shot iu the shoulder, 0 111 cor E. II. Strattou was shot in the wri.c;t, and Charh s II. Josephs, of Batesviiie, was se riously wounded in the region of the heart. The shooting grew, out of n?i altercation between J.

Jones, United JStates M'liiy, who has heeu quartermaster at Manila ever since that city was captured by the Americans, was a passenger on the Coptic, which arrived from Hong Kona tnd xOKonama, via Honolulu, today. He will report to Washington. When Major Jones left Manila a forward movement in the ram and mud was being- made against the insurgents. He is of the opin ion that 50,000 men will have to be Kept on the island of Luzon for ten years in order to heep the peace, but that the actual fighting will not last six weeks when that number of Americans have been landed at Manila.
