An important meeting of the Republican State Executive Committee was held here this afternoon to receive the res ignation of Harry Skinner, as nomi nee for Associate Justice of the Su preme Court, and for the transaction of other business. Mr. Skinner was nominated for Associate Justice by the State Convention recently held in. this city, but when he informed the committee to-day that he could not afford to accept the. nomination for financial reasons his resignation was accepted.

As a result of a quarrel renewed last night In the near beer place of a man named Tal ley, on South Main Street, about 2 o'clock this morning, Pete Sevier shot Will Swink through the abdo men. Swink died in the Mission hos pital in the early morning. Sevier was arrested, as was J. K. Boynton, the latter being charged as an acces sory upon Swink's statement that Boynton struck him. This afternoon Sevier and Boynton were cleared by coroner's Jury on the grounds of justifiable homicide. It was shown at the inquest that Will Swink jumped on Sevier with a drawn knife when the latter fired. The Charleston News and Courier says that North Carolina has the larg est rattlesnakes in the country. May be that is the reason so much of the anidote for snake-bite is shipped here. A Robeson County Democrat says that he is not a candidate for any office "elective, appointive, donative, or purchasable."

Paisley, pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church at Moresville, at whose door a baby girl was left by an unknown woman Monday night, according to a story widely published, this morning has set that small town a-gossiping with the con fession that he is the father of the little stranger who was brought into the town by a stylishly dressed young woman on the night indicated. The news of Rev. Paisley's confes sion was given out to-day. He has also severed his connection with his church, confessed the whole story to his wife, who is an Invalid, and who suffered a collapse at the terible news, and has apparently made up his mind to stand the consequences. The name of the young woman is un known, but she is said to be a nurse from Virginia. The pastor has re signed not only his charge but his connection with the Concord Pres bytery as well. a panic on the train.

While CoL Roosevelt's speech is regarded by many of those who heard it as l carrying . him further than before with the progressive movement, the Colonel coupled with his declaration a warning against the extremists injecting an extempora neous remark on the subject into his prepared speech.

"Stop her, or I'll shoot," he cried. Stewart and his fireman, Paul Bach man, obeyed. At the moment when they were about to enter the express car, Bach man ducked under it. In the hospital here the engineer told the following story: "As the fireman slipped under," he said, "the bandit dropped and tried to cover him. In my hand I had a rock which I picked up when we got off the engine. As the robber stooped, I let him have It, An in stant before I let fly he turned and shot me in the leg. I saw him topple but when I came to the crew were bending over me." The firing of shots had brought brakemen and the conductor and sig nalmen. They arrived with drawn guns a moment after the bandit dropped. Sterling Martin's head was grazed by a bullet which had stunned him. Property Qualification Next Liook Cut! . ..r, Llncolnton Times. A party that will disfranchise ne groes and poor white boys, will dis franchise poor white men , If ' It be comes necessary to keep the party in power. Next thing will be that men must be worth property before they and for tbe benefit of a cIajRM working class; but they are so large p. class, and their welfare is so im portant to the public at large, that needed, whether by State or National legislation. The head of the bureau of labor and the chairman of the Interstate Commerce Commission, under what Is known as the Erdman Act, Intervene officially In every dis pute between interstate commerce railway companies and their em ployees; and the amount of good in the settlement of controversies and the stopping of disastrous: strikes that has been done by Commissioner Neill and Chairman Knapp cannot be over stated. Again, with respect to the em ployes of interstate commerce rail ways, a law has been passed by Con gress making It easier for the em ployes who have been Injured by tbe negligence of the company or some other employe of the company to re cover compensation for their Inju ries. The old common law upon this subject was unjust to the employe, and seemed to have been in the in terest of the employer. Again, the alien contract labor law has been passed and strictly en forced with a view to prevent the bringing in from other countries to compete with the settled and estab lished labor of this country pauper labor under contract to serve at wages far lower than the prevailias wage In the United States. This legislation is in the Interest with the doctrine of the square deal and to be based on tbe same consid eration of fairness and justice as are transactions in every day life be tween honest and just men. can Yote. Property qualifications to voting are already in force in twelve States of the Union. These States are locat ed for the most part in New England, the seat of capitalism. and In the South, the old stronghold of chattel slavery. " The following States for bid the ballot to paupers: Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, .West Virginia, Oklahoma, Missouri and Nevada.. while It might, be characterized as class legislation, it Is greatly for the public weal, and can not be. denom inated privileged or objectionable .

Several days ago a warrant was sworn out for Christian, charging him with the theft of a watch from a local physician. When OfScer Burns, accompanied by the physician went to Christian's home to make the arrest, his call for Christian to come out was greeted from a window by a volley of shot As soon as the physician spread the news, posses were organized to capture.
