I The Monroe corre?nonciint tn Charlotte Observer gives the follow ing report or Mr. J. N. Price'i speech at Weddington recently: ir. j. . rnee, wno waa mem ber of the last Leghlature and is standing tor re-election, made the strongest speech of Uie day in favor of the recorder s court. He said he was responsible for the establish ment of that court, and explained how and why it was established, stating that its perpetuation was an issue that overshadowed all others issues. He declared he was four square and wiUv both feet for it. and he proposedi championing it through out the campaign. Anybody who saytftfeat Mr. Red wine. Mr. Stevens and I got up the court to give Bob Stevens a job is an infamous liar. We created the court to roDnly the demand I have spoken of. We had nothing to do with the election of Mr. btevens. He was elected by the alderman and the board of county commissioners." Mr. Price turned to Mr. T C. Lee, who was one of the county commissioners when the election was held and asked. "Is not that so? Mr. Lee replied, "I twas an entirely fair election.' "The speaker went on to say that the recorder's court had saved the people of Union county something like $L500 in court expenses in one year, and then he threw a bombshell into the enemy's camp by declaring he knew who got up the articles that appeared in the papers against the court. 'Those articles were not signed, but we can tell who wrote them, and for what purpose, by cer tain ear-marks. I am discussing public questions, and I am going to name the parties openly and not hide behind pseudonyms as they did. They are friends oL mine, but they have compelled me to this course. The chief instigator of those articles was Luther How. and he did ! it be he recorder s court took away from him as a magistrate in Monroe a a business thatpatd at least $1,000 a year into his pocket. The people of this county win not vote against a court that saves them $1,500 a year. ust to enable Mr. Flow to put $1,000 a year into his own pocket, I reckon. I han Luther Flow got around Mr Dave Houston, whose fees as clerk of Superior Court were cut doivn $500 a year, perhaps, by the estab ishraent of the recorder s court, and induced mm to oppose the court in this way they have been doing. The speaker declared he would figh along thi3 line all through- the cam paign, and when he got through nobody could say that he had strad dled." (.

Yours for service. Legalizing the Blind Tiger. Charlotte Chronicle. I Savannah, Ga. , has evidently fallen on evil ways in dealing with the liquor traffic. According., to the Greenville News, that city has adopt ed the . plan which is said to . have originated in Maine many years ago and is known as the Bangor Idea. At intervals of six months the beasts are rounded up and asked to part with i $100 each.pn the first round $9,300 was deposited m the treasury and from names in the hands of the police it is estimated that the fund will reach $25,000 be fore ihe end of the month. This gives the city a revenue of $50,000 In other words, blind tigersare legalized bv the taymenfbf fines. which amount to a license to do business. They 'know how much the fines wiltamount to. They pay the finesand pocket all the proceeds ptef and above them. But the Savannah law places one restriction uDon them. , They are-not allowed to do business on Sunday.
