VOL. XXVI. N. C, THURSDAY, APRIL, 9. 1900. Ho. 13 EDITORIAL BRIEFS, The Durham Herald says there are ntirely too many Ifs In the war of Ij'-ni'x-ratlc succeas. Ayrock might write a spring poem on the sound of the pistol and the Mini; of th mocking bird. 1h News and Observer ha not y-t reproduced that article telling of the K-x)d qualities of Old Nick Wll Jiarna whiskey. Senator Tillman, of South Caro lina, is going abroad for his health. (Jim-s.s he also will return with a w Mea or a new pitchfork. Si i. re the Slmrnona-Cralg-Aycock combine haB been formed the stock in the Fifth District combine has fallen considerably below par. If this governorship race gets much warmer the Democratic Con vention at Charlotte will be worth even more than the price of adop tion. JuHt to oreak the monotony Gover nor Glenn might tell the people just when, how and' where he found that A. & N. C. report which was missing for so long. The Supreme Court has decided that the citizens of Anson County may have more than a quart at one time, providing they know wbre and how he got It. You need not write the editor for any further information in regard to the "Funnygraph" poem which ap pears elsewhere in this issue, as the editor did not hear any of the music. The poem was contributed. The writer may not be as well posted on points of law as some others, but we can't understand how the Governor could pardon a man be fore' he had entered upon the serv ing of his sentence. Governor Glenn may resume his practice of law after his term of office expires, but it is hardly proba ble that he will again be a special attorney for the Southern Railway or the Casper Whiskey Company. Considering that Congress has just made,the largest appropriation ever given to the Weather Bureau, we think the weather man might show v. i... , . , 1 his appreciation by forcing winter to I ' I take a back seat, and stay seated for a season.

That may be so, yet a politician al ways fills the place and he continues to work politics even after he is elected. Do you want an example? In replying to an attack made upon him by one of the Democratic papers in this State, Mr. Craig says that not even the Republicans ever made such charges against him. It may be that the Republicans did ! nut know as much about him as some of his Democratic friends.

Officers and Enlisted Men LIABILITY BILL PASSES MOUSE Only One Vote Waa Recorded A gal n t J t Conuni t Um Hears Many Views on the Hepburn IU1L So More Filibuster Lag in the House. (Special to The Caucasian.) Washington, D. C.. April 8. The past week has been Quite an inter esting one in both the Senate and the House. For several days the Democratic leaders In the House had been using tactics to prevent the passage of certain measures before that body. Saturday the House of Representatives passed a rule which put an end to any further filibus tering by the Democratic members. In presenting the rule Congressman Dalzell characterized the Democratic filibuster of the previous days as "asinine, idotic and a disgrace to grown up men of full stature." Some of the members had predicted that Congress would be in session until the 4th of July, but since the new rule of Saturday, business will be expedited and it is hardly prob able that Congress will remain in session lenger than the regular term. With only one vote against it the House Monday, under suspension of the rules, passed the sterling employ ers' liability bill. In brief, the bill establishes the doctrine that railroad companies engaged in interstate commerce are liable for personal in juries received by employers in the service o such.carrlers. It abolishes the comon law rule of liability which rio ra a raAViv fnr thn naraAnoi in. 1 , J " I Jury or death of an employe, occa- ' . . . . i. , , aiuuea u uie uegngeuce oi a ie.o- servuui. 1 ,, , ... , I 4"1lwu" rh TiT a V i txt o o n4acni wxf rnn wan a a nrnnrinol.

Him Waa True What Caurd the Rumor of Bribery to Start. April 8peclal to The Caucasian. 1.0S. A letter from North Carolina to this writer says that Adams and hit patronage machine fellows are boast ing that he has been exonerated of the charges ef alleged bribery when a judgt in Indian Territory. They claim that the letter of the Secretary of the Interior to Congress, in re sponse to a resolution of inquiry, proves that the charges are false In the interest of the party In North Carolina, of which Adams happens now to be head, we regret that this is not true. The facts are that a charge was made and put into the Congressional Record to the effect that it was al leged that the Secretary of the In terior had In his possession proof that members of that Indian Court. of which Adams was head, were bribed, and that the Secretary, in stead of having the judges who were alleged to be guilty Indicted and con victed, had su pressed the facts. This was a charge made in Con gress directly against the Secretary. In reply the Secretary simply said that, the charge against him that he had sufficient proof to indict and convict certain of the judges was false. It seems that Adams has seized upon this statement and perverted it so as to make the Secretary say that the alleged charges against Adams were false. The Secretary said noth ing of the kind. What he did say Nwas that he had received many ru mors and anonymous statements charging bribery, but that he did not have sufficient proof. But it may be added that ugly ru- mor8 continue to come here Manv eood and reliable Deoole sav .. .v. mej Bw uu h.uuw of the conduct of that court and its surroundings, that they believe that corrupt influences were used. it iB true that no one has c,aimed that he? saw money passea, out mat proves notning. if anv member of the court was bribed, it surely was not done pub- bribe and the person who took it. tn Buch a case, would the fact that neither one of the two would con- tess De a proor or innocence?
