The Supreme curt evidently decided thnt it would not try to "sit it out1' with a legislature that had both eye upon it. Crawford in the West, Exceedingly gratifying reports come from the wct concerning the reception given William T. Crawford by the people of the counties where he has filled ap pointments. Everywhere his appearance his awakened an enthusiasm that cau mean but one thing. The people of the ninth district know that Mr. Crawford was elected to All the teat in congrees which Pearson now occupies. They know that the house of . representatives' in declaring Pearson entitled to the teat committed a wrong that there is but one way of righting and that by returning Mr. Crawford at the first opportuni ty that ofTer!. At his appoint ments in the western counties he has been warmly greeted by vo ters ol all parties, and has been given assurances unmistakable that thye people resent the wrong that has been done him and them. These expresions of con tinued faith in him as a man worthy to represent them in Congress mean but one thing, and that is that when the time comes the Pearson contest is to be re buked with a vote that will be remembered a long time. And if Pearson be his opponeut again to much the better. Pearson will be defeated by such a vote that even Pearson himself will be un able to hatch a plan whereby he can have it set aside. The Re publican banner of "untarnished stars'' will still be in his hands, but tie body will give the trailing emblem a second look. ' Asheville is entertaining, in the delegation that are attending the state conventioiMif the Wo man's Christian Temperance Un ion, some of .North Carolina's noblest, and best women. They have devoted themselves to the spread of the gospel of temper ance, and whatever" one's views may be upon this great question, he must admire the devotion of these women to their work. Here in the shadow of the mountains they may drink deep at the foun tain of inspiration and get re newed strength for their work. Asheville gives them weleoni. Remember the Merrimac, Friends of the gallant young Hobson will regret to learn that he is in such poor health that he has been ordered home. -Hobsou -was ouce a hero, but like Dewey he looked down, became dizzy and toppled off thtj pedestal. j '.' ; 'But his'service in the. Philip pines has doubtless reasoned him. There is much in th young man, and the peop'e will no doubt take him back into their hearts and let bygones be bygones. II is resi dence among the Filipino girls should have cured him of the ovulatory habit, and this being 0 he will be able to show what a young American of capacity can do. THE SILENT TURK, Constantinople, June 15 The United States legation has received a reply to the note regarding the indemity question tmm1ft tn th tvtrt Vav t anil t Irvil faires, is making 'verbal representations to the goverumetttj A PEACEFUt ASPECT. St. Louis, June 15 As far as outward appearances go there is little evidence to day to indicate that a strike exists on the lines of the St. Louis Transit com pany. With the exception of guards of deputy sheriffs at the numerous car sheds and power houses the city shows peace ul aspect. ' - .y THFAMENDMENTr ft , From the Wilmington Messenger. , There have been a half hundred pub lished papers, editorials, communica tions, etc.. In the last IS months In North Carolina In regard to the amendr ment to the state constitution and what will be Its effect, tf any, upon the white voters. 80 much has been writ ten already that It looks as If It were a work of supererogation to argue more concerning It. It Is absolutely so plain that a "wayfaring man though a fool cannot err therein." As a mat ter of fact, whatever the pertinacious and shameless liars may say to the contrary, the amendment does not in any way or In the least degree affect the white voters. The amendment does not disfranchise any white man. Recently a strong array of leading lawyers numbering some 150 -signed their names to a paper declaring that sections four or five must stand or fall together, and that no white voter will be touched in his rights as an elector; that he will continue to exercise the right of franchise as he has always done. Section 5 is bound to section 4. Of Itself It does not disfranchise any one. The legislature meets next Tues day and such a change will be made In the amendment as to shut out the liars from farther plying their nefa rlnus and Infamous trade. It Is well to note here some few- points. Any citizen who Is a white man can 'vote, '.whether he can read or write. To do this, there. Is but one con dltlon to hay's paid his poll tax. But black radicals are blowing over this furiously, The voter has to pay poll tax, for the previous year. It must be paid by the 1st of March Mark you, this tax was due the preced ing. 1st of September, so there ate six months between the time It Is due and the time It must be paid. He must pay a poll tax whether he ever votes or no. It Is a law and his duty as . rlttsen. If he never votes he must still pay that poll tax. Remember that. Hut If he does vote he must have settled according to law by the 1st of .a arch previous, paying then the poll tax of the previous year. That Is right. Just, fair and necessary Every cltlien must help to support the government under which he lives. So any white man who pays his poll tax tan vote whether he can read or write. lloada of Sawdn.t. Any strooff. fibrous substance and especially one which holds moisture. such ns the refuse of sugar cane or sorghum nnd even comiuou straw, Sax or swamp will be useful. Spout tHiibark Is of some service, and wood fiber In any form is excellent The best Is the fibrous sawdust made In sawing amngies oy those machines which cut lengthwise of the fiber Into the side of the block. Sawdust Is first spread on the road from eight to ten Inches d'tp, aud this Is covered with sand to protect the rond ngalust fire lljhted rrom plixs or clgmrs carelessly thrown or emptied on the roadbed. The sand also keeps the sawdust damp. The dust snd-saud soon become hard and pack d. and the wheels of the heaviest wagons 'make but little Impression upon the surfm-e. The roadbed appears to he almost as solid as a plank road, but Is much easier for the tenuis. The roud prepared In this umnner will re main good for four 'or five years and will then require renewing In some parts. The ordinary lumber sawdust would not be so good, of course, but If mixed with ptnuer shavings might serve fairly well. All Should Help. The farmers cnunot aud ought not to be expected to build good roads unas sisted by the other Industries of the stnte. This ract Is now fully recognis ed by all who hnve made ciireful study of the problem of securing permanent highways. It Is further evident that money contributed for road construc tion ought not to be used In the waste ful and Ineffective way la which road taxes In the past hare been expended.
