Two years ago a meeting of the board

sending delegates to Kntherlordton to
ask the Carolina Central to extend its

of the railroad commission club, but
Cnpt. Nntt Atkinson introduced a reso-
I lution in th.it meeting, "that it is the
sense ot this board t hat since there is nil
niter-stale commission, the interests ol
this section do not demand a stale coin

This brings the matter up to tin
present, and it will strike the public tin:
very similar tactics have been piaitue l
on three different occasions when the
railroad commission subject has been
under consideration. do not know
that I should have submitted this com
munication hut for the fact lli.it Tin:
CiTiziiN, without my consent or appn
bation, showed the committee In lore
publication mv telegram, and thus aided
their personal energies in beforehainhiess tion t
in tins matter.
I do not sec that the signature at
tached to the committee's telegram, tin
dcr the condition that they were gotten, 1
sustain or indicate their action at Kal
eigh. Several parties who 1 have asked
about it say that they signed the pa' . r
on the independent proposition whether
or not they iitvor or impose a r.nhoail
commission, and thai tiny did not have
under advisement or consideration Hie
somcwluil different proposition that 'inv
means nre justifiable in the attainment
of an cud.
I have staled that the committee
that went to Kaliigh were seal in the
interest of the repeal ot the mer
chants' piucliasc ta. There was no
cups, hall public or reprcscutalive meeting called
here for any other purpose, and the geu
! tlemen could not Ik- representatives ot

ially since Mr. I owill on his own
motion had dissolved the Asheville board

with immoral conduct.
The presbytery unanimously adopted
a resolution that while the prool was
not suHk-icm to establish the fact that
Ur. Harris wns guilty of adultery, either
in act or purpose, yet there was evidence
ot grave imprudence anil conduct lugtdv

Ur. Harris was arrested lust September
upon a charge ol assault ami battcrv

charged thai lie had refused to pay what
he owed her and struck her. According
to In. Harris' statement he had been
walking. When lie passed her house, sin
playfully seized his hat and ran. He fol
lowed her but she refused to return it un
less he paid her one hundred dollars.
This he did when she demanded one
thousand. He refused to pay more nnd
his arrest followed. The grand jury failed
