The Iloase Judiciary Committee, by a rote of 23 to 10, recommend to the House, favorably, the resolution introduced by Mr. Craig, looking to the Impeachment of Justices Kurchos and Douglass. This action is so surprise to this paper, for we bate all along entertained the belief that the ballot stuffing element in the leg islature, or rather those who profi ted by the anarchistic methods of the last campaign, would be dispos ed to institute impeachment pro ceedings. This action is also in har moay with the methods that hare been practiced by the Simmons bal lot-stuffing machine in the two last oampaigns. Indeed, the official char acter of no man of opposite party is free from the assaults of this class of demagogues and politician, in short they feed and thrive on such methods. The deliberate purpose of begin ning impeachment proceedings is to shake pnblio coincidence in the court, and destroy that high regard they hare always entertained for our highest tribunal. Whether the House adopts the report recommended by the Judiciary Committee or not, is immaterial ; for the recommendation contained therein if intended to damage and destroy, not only the high judicial character and reputa tion of Justices Furches and Doug lass, but also to undermine and be smirch their private character. There is no hint or suspicion of any cor ruption on the part of tnese distin gulshed gentlemen ; on the contrary, ten the most partisan Democratic papers are constrained to admit that their characters are of the highest. The BtatesTille Mascot, regretting the action of this intensely partisan Judiciary Committee, says of Judge Furches: "No man who knows him erer doubted his honesty and integ rity. He may hare made a serious mistake and transcended his author ity, but there is nothing to show that he did so intentionally and knowingly." The Mascot is published at the home of Justice Furches, and that paper has had every opportunity of knowing not only his official life, but his prirate career, and it testifies to his honesty. The High Point Enterprise, a pa per published in Quilford county, of which Justice Douglass is a native, says that "he has always borne spotless reputation." This same paper in speaking of Judge Furches says that he likewise "has equally as good a reputation in the State. Comment lng zurtner, the .baterprise says: "An accusation sometimes does as much harm to a man's reputation as a conviction, and these men will probably suffer in reputation, no matter what turn the affair may take." . In this light this matter will be regarded by conservative, fair-mind ed and justice-loving citizens of the State, even though the House should deliberately refuse to recommend impeachment to the Senate. The matter has gone so far now, that even though, they should retrace their steps, they have succeeded, to some extent, in undermining and de stroying that public confidence in the highest court, which is so essen tial, but the anarchical element now is control of the State would hesi tate to do nothing to intrench them selves in power. Indeed, this brazen and sameless Attempt to destroy the high official i character of these judges is no sur prise when we take into considera- tlon the violent and lawless charac ter of the campaigns that were car ried on by the redshirt Democracy. - In their hypocritical attempt at impeachment on the ground, as they Allege, that these judges violated the Constitution of the State or tran scended their jurisdiction in the White case, and in view of the fact that many of these same men, who are now so Active And Aggressive in pushing impeachment proceedings, either violated, endorsed, or acqui esced in the violation of the Consti tution of North Carolina and the United States in the August election, reminds us of Satan rebuking Sin. In all the years past when the Dem ocratic party had control of the State it frequently happened that they had men on the bench who were guilty of intemperance,, and yet no attempt was made by the Demo era tie Legislatures to impeach THXTB JUDGES. Populist papers In some instances having knowledge that some of the judges were guilty of. intemperance, while actually engaged in the dis charge of their duties, never called public attention to this fact, much less to demand their impeachment at the hands of the Legislature. While this was good ground for urging ac tion by the Legislature, yet these papers, having high regard for our Courts, did not seek to undermine or destroy public confidence in them. It is generally Admitted, even by the most rabid partisan Democratic pa pers that Justice Furches and Doug lass are men of high character and legal ability. No doubt in issuing the mandamus to compel tne State 1 I Treasnrtr to pay White's salary as Shell Fish Commissioner, they were actuated by tha beat of motive. No doubt thtr thought that they wert acting within Constitutional boands. and it does not ui ix the mouths of the billot trrurriJto mathine who trampled on the Constitution last iommer to eharg anybody with violating the Constitution- The tbe dered impeachment of these jadjres in oraer w fubthkk meir ruuu cal xvw, bat rairmtnaea ana eon servativa North Carolinians will see to it that full and exact justiee is done in the matter when it is totted at the bar of public opinion- Le the impeachment proceedings be in stituted; let them continue their highhanded and outrageous conduct it tney dare: "Lay on Macduff, and damn be ht who first cries hold, enough !" IIr!lANCHIED FOR FAILURE TO PAY POLL-TAX. New Orleans, Feb. 8. The Missi sippi politicians are much disturbed over the great shrinkage in the vote of Mississippi this year. The eon stitution of that State requires the , payment of poll taxes two years in advance ol an election in order to qualify an elector to vote. The time tor the payment of these poll taxs expired a few days ago and the re turns from the several counties show tnat a large majority of white voters have disfranchised themselves bj failure to pay this tax and will noi be allowed to participate in the Con gressional or other elections of 1902 In spite of tne t aorta of. tne politi cians and the newspapers, the num ber of voters who have disqaaliutd themselves is far greater tnn ever bofore. In Yzoo county, for in stance, with 4 J y population and never over o.UW registered, mort than seven-eights of the voters fail ed to pay their poll taxes and cannot vote before 1903. The number oi votes in that county has been re duced to 920, and the vote is likely to be reduced to 600 in 1902. At this rate, Mississippi's vote in the elec tion that year will fall below 30,000 and may fall below 24,000. The neg lect of the whites to tit themselves for the suffrage has caused a feeling of great disgust. The same situation that prevails now in Mississippi, as a result of the imposition or cue poll-tax, as a pre requisite to voting, will give trouble to thousands of honest white men when the amendment goes into ef feet in 1902. The failure to pay poll-tax will certainly result in tbe disfranchise ment of thousands of white men in North Carolina; as that feature has prevented thousands of white men from voting in Louisiana and Mis sissippi it will likewise have precise ly the same effect in this State. The demagogues who pledged that no white man would be disfranchised will not come forward and pay the poll-tax of those voters in order that they may be able to exercise their highest privilege. These political fakirs and strikers will have important business else where then. They will probably deny that they . 9 . . . ever pieagea mat no white man would lose his right to vote. It is indeed an awful and danger ous situation when a voting popula lion oi o.uuu is reduced to zu on ac count of failure to pay the poll tax When one-eighth of the voters con trol the political affairs of a county, is that a ".Republican form of gov- eminent," such as is guaranteed by the Federal Constitution! Is not such a narrow restriction of the suffrage dangerous! Are we not sowing the seeds of our own destruction when we so lim- it the suffrage that a very small mi- noritv control & ennntv nr HtAtv What has haoDened in restrifttinir the suffrage in Lonh.ia, and Mi.ia. -- O sippi, is certain to happen in North Carolina. In a few vears we will have thi8 State governed by a small oligarchy The poll-tax provision was placed in the amendment for that purpose. Tbe Simmons Machine knew what they were doing. Tne "State Manure Pile," other wise known as the Agricultural D partment, needs a little airing, it seems. The expenses of the Depart ment have reached about sixty thou sana dollars, and no itemized state ment has been rendered. Scott, of Alamance eonnty, has introduced a bill calling for the submission of a report of the expenditures, etc. We earnestly, but respectfully call the! attention of the News and Observer to this matter, lest its "manure pile" should get in "bad order." A Spring cleansing may be necessary. Petitions signed by thousands of citizens have been sent to the legis lature praying for the enactment of a fair election law. Gov. Aycock strongly advocated such a law in his inaugural message, but thus far the machine has taken so action. The present law, by which thousands of white men's votes were stolen, is a disgrace to modern civilization. . . , Sn!l!T ourt .Judges as liic LiAUuabIAN DredlfttAn thA A- Tl it . ...... - BliMen. anis will impose an additional bnrden on thepeobu more offlees for the "faithful' and the "dear deluded" people must "pay the freight" What a howl would be raised if the Fosionists were in pow er now and undertook to increase offices!

OBSERVER ESTIMATE niAXCia rx wwitost. Replying to tbe attack made upon it by Francis D. Winston and other Democrat in the Legislature, the Charlotte Observer, in its Issue of February 1 lib, says editorially: It was Mr. Winston, of Bertie, ates reader will recall, who first arose to this question of personal privilege. Mr. Winston now calls himself a Democrat and was elect ed to this Legislature as such. Yet ft waa not so many years Ago that he was In the bosom of the Repub lican party. During that time he was a candidate for judge and wrote a letter to George II. Whit, tbe ne gro solicitor of that district, now a member of Congress, telling him of the pleasure it would give him to ride the circuit with him. It was said about him, too, that on a eer tain occasion he was aoen arm in arm with two negroes on the streets of Tarboro, and if he denies this we will produce a witness whom he cannot impeach. This is one of the gentlemen who arraigns Tbe Ob server at the bar of public opinion (or an expression neither persona nor insulting. Another is Mr. Watts, of Iredell This gentleman has been barking at The Observer for years through a country paper which be is sup posed to edit, and has (ailed to get a kick. From his v resent high perch he barks again ; and in this paragraph he gets the kick for I to which he has bo long begged. ! fli Mr. Morgan, of the county oil Johnston, also arose to a question of personal privilege, saying thai The Observer ia not a friend of Bry an Democracy and that he desired the House to avail itself of the op portunity to say what it thought of the paper and its editor. We never heard of Mr. Morgan before and never expect to hear of him after this Legislature adjourns What he says is of less consequence, If possible, than the chatter of Win ston and Watts. We understand, of course, and the publio understands, the purpose of this little clamor. It is meant to discredit the Observer. We want to say to these cattle that it is beyond their power to either injure or an noy this paper. Its enemies have done their little best in this direc tlon, throughout tne year, and es peclally within the past year, with the result that it has more busl ness than it ever had before and is stronger In every way. Charlotte is behind It, the solid people of North Carolina are behind it, and as ror tbe scurvy politicians, it snaps its fingers in their faces and defies them. This editorial would, however, be incomplete if it were not accom panied by the letter of Mr. Win ston, of Bertie, to the negro solid tor, White, referred to above, and it could have no better ending than it has in the introduction here of a copy of the letter in question : Windsor, N. C, June, 1890 Hon. Geo. H. White, Rocky Mount, N. C. My Dear Sir: I regret that I can not attend the judicial convention on account oi pressing engage ments. Please put In a word to se cure my nomination lor judge While there is not much hope for an election, still the remote possi bility of riding the district with you is a great pleasure. Wishing you success, I am, yours very truly, (Signed) Francis D.

If only one lawyer conld be com pelled to live in the country among the people one whole year oh what a difference in the morning. The late amendment will surely accomplish its purpose I.e. Indus trial debasement. The laborer Is being forced to be come a physical machine. The conscience of the Governor of any State not law should impel him to feel that "no filching light ning nor filthy lore shall his souls repose explore." Something impels men to always seek betterments, and they usually get it oneway or another. This legislature is running itself on the idea "no fool no fun, the biggest fool is not yet begun.' The prospective home of ballot box thieves is the penitentiary, but their instigators appear to hope for heaven, Lyman Abbott says good govern ment comes first, self-government next. It seems we are about to get the last first.

He said that he was crossicg said bridge one day and a little boy who was sitting on end of one of the planks jerked a fish out and j nst did miss his face. Mr. Pearee is down home now, but we hope he will have no occasion to cross this bridge until his law goes into effect. HIS LIFE WAS SAVED. Mr. J. E.
