We deplore that an incident of unpleasantness has arison which in the opinion of this upright jurist necessitated the exereies of the ex traordianary power conferred upon him for the preservation qf order and respect of his position upon the bench, so needful to the administration of justice in open court, and without which every officer or" bystander would be the judge of hit own eon duct and courts lose their usefulness to the people Should" Aid Judge. We feel that it becomes the express duty of lawyers in attendance upon the courts to aid the presiding judge in controlling and observing nec essary decorum, and most especially do we feel that it was the duty of the Solicitor of the distriet to aid the judge in the exercise of 'this au thority, rather than oppose his. commands and by an open challenge to such authority, plaoe the presid' ing judge in a postion of enforcing his power, or of admitting to the pub lic that the prosecuting S-officer of his eourt possessed a power equal to that of the presiding officer or exemption shared in by no other officer, litigant or juror. This unfortunate incident having been given such wide public range, and muoh injustice done Judge Carter by comments through certain news papers in the state, we desire to ex prets to Judge Carter our high appre ciation for his efforts in behalf of the courts, of. this county; of. his able administration of public justice, and earnestly .hope in leaving, the court he has no ably and generously held at a time when great and serious inconvenience wetddirhaVc otherwise followed, thjfit be'aiay' enitffWm a Jii'fih .regard, for. the bar sand people of this section, undisturbed by- the recollection of so unfortunate an oc currence, . which has disturbed the otherwise, smooth, and tranquil con duct of a three weeks term.

Smith, of the United States Bureau of Animal Industry, for the purpose of showing the improved conditions caused by the eradication of the oat tie tick, was one which was both enter taining and beneficial. Stock Law Counties. At- present there are seventy mx counties in North Carolina that have a stock law, leaving four free range counties, with stock law districts in some of those. Dr. Smith related several sound reasons why the law is beneficial to the people. He told of how the people in a free range county, who are trying to do something are handicapped and as an illustration, related an experience of Graham Rich ardson, one of Craven county's most prominent farmers. He stated that Mr. Riohardson had three yearling of a very fine breed, and is unable to dispose of them, at a reasonable price, because he is unable to ibrp them ont of free range Uritory. Mr. Richardson sold one of these a short time ago for ono hundred and fifty dollars but was unable .o deliver Ibe animal because it is in the quarantine district.
