There has been some discussion in the papers over the idle charge that Congressman Patterson -was defeated - for. renomination through, the in fluence of the Atlantic Coast Line Company. The truth of the matter is that the: Atlantic, Coast Line is less mixed up in politics than any rail road company in the south. We doubt if the officials of that road even knew the date and place of the convention, which resulted in Mr. Patterson's re- it. " Against the charge of interference in local political matters. The Chron icle believes that the Atlantic Coast Line can defend itself even to the con fusion of demagogues. -Charlotte Chronicle. , We had seen publication of, this ru mor before it was mentioned In The Chronicle, but considered it too ab surd to mention for the purpose of de nying. That there is not a word of truth in the charge it 'is hardly n'eces sary for us to say. The Chronicle is correct in saying that the Atlantic Coast Line is less mixed up in politics than any railroad in the south. The officials of that company attend strictly to their! own business which is the conducting of the affairs of the railroad, and by so doing . they have made it one of the be3t pay ing properties in the whole country. They know that it does not do to mix railroading and politics and as . they are employed and paid to do the form er they let the other alone. It is well known by all persons at all acquainted with the management of this , company that it is the cleanest conducted railway system in the Unit ed' States. To this fact is due the marvelous success of the company. Every man connected with the com pany from President Emerson down to "the Oilers in the round houses takes pride in the road and feels that fie is a part of this great . system. The men do not work simply for the wages they are paid for their labor, but for the good of the road and to help maintain its well-merited reputation.; This feel ing of community. of interest in the welfare of the road and pride in its enviable reputation among its men all down the line is another reason for the great prosperity and remarkable suc cess financially and in the mechanical departments with which it has been blessed. . " The absurdity of this company op posing Mr. Patterson's re-nomination because he advocated deepening the channel of the Cape Fear between Wil mington and Pay etteville is apparent on the face of the statement. It would benefit the Coast Line to have the river made 'navigable for steamers the year '.round " by developing a wide scope of territory. Industries of all kinds would-be multiplied in the territory served"by that system. Farming lands would increase in value; more farm and factory products, would be seeking outside markets to be reached only over tfie lines of this company. The contiguous country would be wonder fully . developed and industrial and ag ricultural conditions greatly improved to the continually increasing benefit of the . railroad-, company. Just as. the! Erie canal was the making of the New York Central railroad, so would a deep river channel in the upper Cape Fear add to the annual profits of the At lantic Coast Line. i , .

K HEALTH,:::';; INSURANCE j The man who insures his life Is wise for his family. a : i The man who insures his health Is wise both for his family and himself. . ! ' You may insure health by guard ing it. It is worth guarding. . At the first attack of disease. . which generally- approaches through: the ; LIVER and manl-. fests itself in innumerable ways' TAKE f fifliilSIl THE SUSIK HANNOX CASE. What Is to be done with Susie Han non, the thirteen-year old girl who has been placed in the penitentiary to serve a term of five years for manslaughter? An effort is being made to have the governor issue a conditional pardon to her and to secure her a home in some family under the direction -of the society for the care of orphan children in this state.;' It strikes; ys it will be difficult to find this girl a good home. No family of the kind with whom Mr. L , Streeter would wish to put her iwould be' willing1 to take her as one x)t its members, and unless she can be placed with people who would take an inter est in her reformation no good would be accomplished by such a step. That the penitentiary is not" the proper place for her will hardly be denied by any one. If she is confined there for five years she? will come out of the institu tion , at : the age of eighteen '- years a thoroughly hardened criminal and abandoned woman. Her (Condition morally and mentally will be much worse than it' is now. Does not this girl's case demonstrate the absolute necessity for a reformatory in this state? There could not be imagined a case which would show more clearly the need of such an institution. The state could not expend money to great er advantage or to more benefit to her citizens than in establishing and main taining an institution where such crimj inals could be confined and while being punished for their offenses be brought under good influences with hopes of reformation and the making of good fcifizens. We cannot understand why the people of the state have not long ago seen the necessity for the estab lishment of a reformatory for youthful criminals and demanded of their legis lators that appropriation be made for the hnildine and maintaining of this needed state institution. THE SALISBURY LYNCHING. It is impossible to imagine what mo tive actuated the men who took those - three negroes from the court at Salisj- bury and hanged them. They did no have the usual excuse of the law's de lay or the miscarriage of justice. Ther was - no reason to i suppose that th guilty ones would escape speedy justic There was not near as much excus for this lawless act as there was in th Wadesboro lynching, and we recko the prosecution of the lynchers in th case will prove as great a fiasco as i seems it will be in the other. Unles the governor and the solicitor are sur they can convict such of the lyncher in. both cases as may be brought to trial it would be better to.drop th(! prosecution in both instances. T bring the men to triaT and have then acquitted would be worse or the state i tha'n not to attempt thesr prosecution It would show to men inclined to conv mit the same crime at some future day that they could do "so without fear o;! punishment. It would put on recon the fact that juries in this state hohi men guilty of no crime who do such deeds. It would be much better to drop both cases and consider the affairs closed incidents than to make"a failure in the attempt to punish the men who participated in the lynchings. We dp not believe the governor can convijt ' any of the men before a jury In Anson or Rowan county. It does seem, however, that the men who took these prisoners from the court in the latter county should be , punished fpr their conduct. It was the most outrageous defiance of law and of the courts whic h, has ever occurred in this state. There was never in this state a simijar case one in which law was so openly defied and the Courts of law so contemptuous - , lv overridden , by a mob of lawless men. - ' MESSRS. BRYAX AND SUIiUVANJ . So. far as we have seen, Mr., Sullivan, of Chicago, has made no reply to Mi. Brjran's demand that he should resign his position as a member of the demo cratic national committee; but the democrats of Cook county made reply in their primaries last Saturday. The results of the primary put Mr. Sullivan in absolute control of the democracy of the county. He will go to the stae convention with the solid backing ot . the Chicago and Cook' county democ racy. What is Mr. Bryan, going to do about that? -Will he read the entire democracy of Cook ! county out of the .party for , going against 4his declared will in this ; matter?, It seems that these democrats have made their choice ' between1 Messrs. Bryan and ! Sullivan as their leader 'and. have decided in favor of the latter. This is unfortun ate for -Mr. Bryan.' He loses out in tlje first contest for supremacy in the next presidential campaign-1 . He made a mistake when he thought he could die-' tate to the democracy of Cook county. No' doubt he will find many other dem ocrats, taking the same position as those pt Chicagov ; , 7- i r -: The Durham Sun hits the nail square -on the head when it ays,on the child labor question that there are too many -T children and not enough parents at work in our cotton mills. ; We hope - Guilford county is not to suffer the disgrace Rowan-; has -just gone; through. - The sheriff 1 of that county "should profit by 1 the mistake of Rowan's officers and be prepared to de fend his prisoner atall 'hazard should the attempt be made to lynch him. J That was one time when the suppo sition that the guns were not . loaded was correct and they did not , go off' unexpectedly. , ' KEY. DR. A. C. DIXON RESIGNS Xoted Divine, ' Native of North Caro lina, Relinquishes Pastorate of Bos ton Church to Go to Chicago. : Boston, Mass; ! Aug. 6.-r-Reyi.' Dr. .- A C. Dixon, pastor of tne Ruggles St. Baptist church, Boston, has forward ed from Minneapolis his resignation, to take effect October 1. Dr. Dixon has accepted a call to the Moody church in Chicago. He came to Bos ton from Brooklyn five years ago, where he was for several years pastor of the Hanson .Place ; Baptist church.; ! He is a native of North Carolina and has served pastorates at Chapel Hill, N. C, Asheville, KV'C., and Bal timore. He was with the Emanuel Baptist church of the latter city for, eight years, going from j ' there : to Brooklyn. Since his coming to Rug gles Street the church membership has increased from 800 to 1,200. Spe-' cial to Charlotte Observer. Tried to Whip the ,Editor. Down in Izzard county, darkest Ar kansas, they do things up brown, says Ben Murdock. An editor called a member of the legislature a 'Top-eared liar" and the member went into the office to lick the editoj. After a min-; ute's conversation the editor man threw the "lop-eared liar" out of the window on to a shed roof, which was rotten, and the legislature man fell through to a porch below, ' lighting on a -sleeping dog. The dog rose "up and bit the man on tne arm where up in the "h&p-eared liar" kicked the dog. At this moment the owner of the dog hearing a commotion,' ' rushed around the corner, very mad. It is not safe to kick an Izzard county dog;: so the owner of kthe dog kicked the "lop-eared liar" off the porch into a convenient-horse trougn. About this time, the member of the legislature concluded that he was a lop-eared idiot and went home, Kansas- City Journal.
