IfltUlrue, Till OBSERVEIfS ESTIMATE Or FRANCIS D. YVIKSTOX. Replying to the attacks made upon It by Francis D. Winston and otbr Democrats In the Legislature, the Charlotte Observer, In Its Issue of February 11th, says editorially : It was Mr. Winston, of B.r le, the 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 le gislature as such. Yet It was not so many years ago that be was In the bosom of the Repub lican party. Daring that time he was a candidate for Judge and wrote a letter to George M. White, the ne gro solicitor of tbat 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 cer tain occasion he was seen arm in arm with two negroes on the streets of Tarboro, and if he denies this we will produce a witness whom ho cannot Impeach This is one of the gentlemen who arraigns The Ob server at the bar of public opinion for an expression neither personal nor Insulting. Another Is Mr. Watts, of Iredell. This gentleman has been barking at The Observer for years through a country paper which he is sup posed to edit, and has failed to get a kick. From his res-ant high perch he barks again ; and In this DarazraDh he gets the kick for which he has so long begged. Mr. Morgan, of the county of Johnston, alao arose to a question of personal privilege, saying tbat The Observer is not a friend of Bry an Democracy aad that he desired the House to avail itself of the op portunity to say wbat it thought of the paper and its editor. We never heard of M r. Morgan before and never expect to har of him after this Legislature adjourns. What he sas is of less consequence, If possible, than the chatter of Win ston and Watts. We understand, of course, and the public understands, th 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 tion, throughout the year, and es pecially within the past year, with the result that it has more busi ness than It ever had before and Is stronger in every way. Charlotte Is behind it, the solid poo pie of North Carolina are behind it, and as for the 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 ton. of Bertie, to the iiegro 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. G., June, 1890. Hon. Geo. H. White, Rocky Mount, N. C. My Dear Sir: I regret thai I can not attend the judicial convention on account of pressing engage ments. Please put In a word to se cure my nomination for judge. While there Is not much hope for an election, still the remote possi bility of riding the district with you la a great pleasure. Wishing you success, I am, yours very truly, (Signed) Francis D. Winston. to discuss tb public Obt, crl-! out: The public deb ! Tre pub lie debt I' Aod then reflctlv-U. How mu'b is (fumbling m his pockets), how much U it? I'll pay it myelf r Wonder If the editor of the N-ws and Observer baddind heavily be fore writing the -dlo"ai on ue Impeachment proceed ng In fr-U'i day's Observer In which it said: "Are the con so enamour a o; me love of money, that they cannot spendafe paltry dollars to pre serve the priceless heritage of lib erty 1'' The following appeared In Sun day's News and Observer: "If Mr. Lin t.ey should become a judge in the Pbllllpplne Islands, will be InsUt upon having G urge H White g along as a memo, r of the court? They stood together In Congress. Ought the President to be cruel enough to separate them now ' It will be remembered that Hon. F. D Winston had hoped for the "great pleasure of riding the sec ond Congressional district with Geo H Wfalte In 1890, and now would it not be cruel to appoint Geo White to a judgeship in the Phllllpptoes and leave Mr. V in ston, at Windsor, to mourn his fate. that they hesitated and took advice, none f which bu Un proven, and none of which I do a itnit, it teems to me, as I think it ought to every one, they were striving to khow their duty. If they were trying to do their duty, from an bouest and conscientious standpoint, 1 ask in God's name. If th-y are to be held responsible for an honeet mistake If they have made a mistake In law only, there la no ground lor 1m peachmeut. But In conclusion, I contend tha' they have made no mistake, bat simply decided the ca-eot White vs. Auditor according to the opinion o the Supreme ourt of North Caro lina for years and years prior to this time. I ask you In God's name, in the name of the great State of North Carolina, do not rush into this thing hurriedly do not attempt to Im peach these Judges because they have exercised the functions of the judicial department of our State government, In construing legisla tive acts, which, by the law of the land, Is their power and duty to do. Now I extend my sincere thanks to this body for the courtesy that has been tendered me through the time I have been discussing this resolution. THE LAW MAKERS. (Continued from First Pag.) HIDES The following appeared In Mon dav's Charlotte Observer, and Is very timely: "Hpaklng f the answer of the judges i he Wilmington Messeng r enquires: 'What will the court say when all the evdence is before tbem and they have heard the ar gum-ntonboth sides? We may not answer this question, but may say tbat we cannot conceive how any fair-mi uded man can read care fully aad understand the answer of the judges and still hold the opin on that they ought to be convict-1 ed We havH not read the bill which passed the House Tuesday to pre vect kidnapping In the State. But judging from Its title It Is a good bill, only not severe enouga. In stead of making the punishment twenty years in the penitentiary, it should be for life at hard labor. A dispatch from Washington, states that Senator McLaurln of South Carolina has been read out of the Democratic party. The arrange ment seems to be very satisfactory to the Senator. Some of the members of the House think that body will adjourn tonight, while others think It will be Saturday before they adjourn. MR. EBBS' ABLE SPEECfl. In the two preceedlng issues we have given the able speech of Mr. Ebbs, the leader of the Republicans of the d resent House of Represen tatives. His speech is concluded in this Issue, and it is among the most able that was made on tae Impeachment proceedings. It Is full of reasonable, logical and sound legal argument, sustaining the Judges, meeting and refuting very argument made against them for issuing writ of mandamus in the rase of White vs. Audi or. Mr. Ebbs has taken a very prom inent part In all matters of public Interest that have come before this Legislature and has at all times kept an eve of vigilance on all questions in which his constituents are concerned, but the people of the entire State as well The people of Mr. Ebbs' county ought to feel proud, as we know they will, of his record in this Gen eral Assembly. WHY DOESN'T HE ANSWER I The following appeared In our is sue of Feb. 21st, and It has not been answered up to this time: We asked the editor of the News and Observr last week to tell the people of North Carolina, as a mat ter of news, how much he and his had received at the hands of the Republican party. We have waited one whole week and he still hasn't answered. We again ask him the question, and hope this time he will not disappoint us ; we also hope the editor of the News and Obser ver will not think we are Imperti nent In asking the question." ...
