It U understood that the owners of some two thousand "hares f private stack ar " interested in this uiu The people of this section are ' much against the lei se and feel that a -great property right h&s teen unlaw iully taken from tAem, and at a price much under its value; for instance the ntire road with all of its equipments, franchise and privileges has been lets 3d to the Howland Improvement Company now the Atlantic & North Carolina Co. at $53,000 per year, when the year Be fore, when it was operated Under great difficulties, its net earnings wen more ' than $78,000 per annum, and it is said the present lessees made a net earning of $79,000 for the first seven months. - Eastern North Carolina is increasing in commercial, agricultural and manufa& turing industries more rapidly than . ever known, in this country. And the harbors of the South Atlantic Seaboard must of. necessity - share in this -in- creased value which will be produced by the construction of the Panama Canal by the United States govern ment.

The1 Supreme eourt has disposed of the ease of. Mur ray of Durham.he was convicted of kill ing his uncle in an affray. Today at torneys, for Murray appeared before Governor GleW and asked him to sus pend the carrying out of the sentence of four years in jail until an application for pardon could be prepared and pre- sentad to the Governor. The Governor he would notify attorneys for the pro secution of this petition and would give the matter a hearing next Saturday morning. He told the attorneys" that his ruling heretofore that no matter of nai-don would be considered unless the petitioner were actually in custody. He said he had repeatedly refused to con sider such cases otherwise, and that he saw no reason why there should be an exception unless there were extremely strong evidence. . The Governor was today considering the petition by the attorney, Mr. Ebbs, for commutation of the death sentence of Peter Smith, who out-raged a girl in Madison county, this this petition being pressed very warmly and the Governor having respited Smith until Oct 2, and having directed the judge to take evi dence of the girl aa to whether she had said she had been forced by her father to swear what she did on the trial The cirl informed the judge that she adhered to. what she had said at the trial, namely that Smith had lured her into the mountains and there committed the assault The Governor thinks the man guilty. Ebbs has sought to make appear that the hearing of the girl's statement by the judge .was a re-trial of the case and that he was not present. The Governor Baid it was no re-trial at all. It looks like Smith will go to the gallows. - State Auditor Dixon who is making up the corrected register of N. C. Con federate troops for the United States War Department finds that the roll of honor is not regarded as an original re cord by the Department The returns upon which it was ' made were either lost when Governor Vance moved the record from Raleigh to Greensboro in 1865, or were captured by the United States. At all events they are are not here. The roll of honor has always been considered in a broad sense an ori ginal record. ; 1 . - The public printer is printing 45,000 copies of the new school, law and also the August bulletin of the Agricultural Department 'There is much delay about printing tne new code, and no one knows now when it will appear.
