for the impeachment of a judge who
makes house1! an instrument in the
escape of the powerful criminal. They
will then have plenty of time to wor
ship at the fert of the blind goddess.
For our part, we think that the North
Carolina case shows a worse state of
aflairs tluin the South Carolina one.
Duwn tliett a member of the political
oligarchy which rules the State had
gotten his neck in danger, and the oli
garchy had to save him one way or the
other. It did it by open trickery and
corruption seen of all men. When the
people get tired of the oligarchy they
have some chance of turning it out.
In Kaleigh the case was different.
There was no political pressure. There
was no judicial juggling iu the selec
tion of time aud place and judge for
holding court. There was only a man
ifestatiuu of the lamentable weakness
or our system which selects the weak
est vessels in the community for jurors
when a capital case is to be tried, and
arrays a battalion of strong lawyers to
bulldoie a weak judge and to make
monkeys out of ignoiant jurors. The
bar has become stronger than the
bench ; the defense side of the bar bat
become stronger than the prosecution
that is, in cases of this kind.j Iu casei
where a belpleas negro without mooej
or friends it diagged from a jail when
he has been since arrest with no op
porlunity to get testimony or counsel,
the State's must noble prosecutiug offi

! Fall of the year is here. The
; leaves are turning golden in the
i autumn sun. au nature seems
to be shaking off her summer
;;nrb, making ready to go into
; winter quarters. The earth is
i giving up its fruits to its children
and every man should take ad
vantage of the time and occasion
and prepare for winter time.
What is the first thing to do?
Collect what nature gives you
and what your summer's toil en
titles you to and then
SAVE IT.
What you are obliged to spend
spend it where you can get the
best return for your money. To
save a few cents on each small
purchase means several hard dol
lars in the course of a year, II
you want to be surprised, just put
one rent in a box every time you
purchase an article anywhere and
then count your money at the end
of the year. You will have sev
eral dollars. We save you one
cent and many times one cent
every time you trade with us.
Yours for Saving,
Hill & Bivens.
