When an incest case was pat 'trial Moehlenbnrg Superior Conr Saturday Judge Xeal excluded a women and all boys under 16 from tb court room.
He then said that whil he could not compel others to leav ho wonld appreciate it if "all gentle men" except those connected wit the case would leave the room, an it is pleasant to note from the Char lotto papers that a majority oE tbos in the court room left. When sac cases as these sre on trial the judg oaght to have the power to exolu3 all persons from the court room ex capt persons directly connected witi the case. It is very often that case this sort and others are made sort of public exhibition in the cour room. These exhibitions are dog rat iafj and they create a disrespect fo the liyv aed the courts. Big meetings of farmers and other were held Saturday at New Bern Wilson and other towns in easier North Carolina, the object being organize and adopt plans that remedy the depression in the pric of leaf tobacco.
A meeting was bel at Rooky Mount Friday, at whic representatives were present from a over the eastern tobacco belt, and plan was adopted which it is hope will remedy the situation. A earn mary of these plans is printed els whor*, THE LAKDJIARK hopes th tobacco growers will be able to ci cnmvent the trust, that theagitatio will result to their benefit and no solely to the benefit of designin politics! demagogues, as has so ten beeu the case in the pas Branches of tbo Farmers' Protectiv Association, an organization promo od by Col, Jjhn S. i a Person county, and Secretary State Bryan Grimes, are being or gnized throughout eastern Nort Carolina; and the Farmers' Alliance wherever that order is still in oxis ence, is also a i a band in Bgh ing the trust. Lord Salisbury, former premier Great Britain, died Satnrday at hi home at Hatfield, county of Herts England. Robert Arthur Talbo Marquis of Salis bnry, was born at Hatfleld in 183 and was educated at Eton and Ox ford.
He entered tho British Parlia ment in 1853 asa member from Stam ford and in 1SCG was appointed Sec retary of State for India. He snbse qnently resigned this office but wa elevated to tho House of Lords the death of his father in 18GS am was strain appointed to the secreta xyship for India in the Disraeli gov eminent in 1874. On the death Disraeli Salisbury became the recog nized leader of tho Conservative par ty and bo became premier on the fal of the Gladstone ministry in 1885 Gladstone WHO again restored power but a few months later wa again succeeded by Salisbury. I 1892 Salisbury retired from office bu was again recalled in 1S05 and re mained in office until about tw years ago, when ho retired on ac connt of advancing years and failin health. While ho was never so prom inont as Gladstone and was not a groat a man, he was undoubtedly man of very great ability.
Noting the failure of Chief Jnstic Clatk to list his income for taxation this year, the Raleigh Post is movet to observe: Tbe people, not only of this Com monwealth but towns cf other whor* our learned Chief Justice hai spoken during late years, have been impressed with bis earnest zeal fer nent tax dodgers of all degrees. Tba he should fall into that same mnd bole must have been becauco tbe lights were all out when be went to give in. By-the-way, as the excess of salary as judge seems to be tbe basis of the income given in by the State judges --vfaere thoj have given in--Judge Clark made a slight error even last year. The salary and expense mon ey paid to our judges by tho State Amounts to $2,750 per a If all in excess ot 31,000 most be listed, then $1,750 rather than $1,500, the amount listed by those judges who made return of this item, should ap pear on the book. Small matter, but yet our judges, of all others, are great sticklers for Principle that hair-lifting old terror can be brought into tho play.
And tbe Charlotte OUener alsi re narka: judge doubtless overlooked tho nutter owing to the pressure of dn connection with bis position defender of tbo common people monopolistic greed rrpro- tented by "them railrodo fellom." Undoubtedly this tho correct ex honor's lapse. Hit I friend la the mountain covet of write him another letter remind bin of the matter, Mentioning tbe fact that tbe board of aldermen of Greensboro was try ing to find some way to limit the blowing of engine whistles in Greens boro, tbe Retard observes: We are a queer people--whol country is the same way. If a train runs over some ono at a crossing an kills him, tbe Qist thing heard is tha the engine did not blow. If it doe toot its little or big looter then howl. Yes, queer country.
It's a fact. A dispatch from Kansas City, Mo says: Believing that he will not be abl to be impartial in the second trial Lulu Prince Kennedy for the mnrde of her husband, which has been for November 16, Judge John Wofford Friday swore himself off tb bench and named Judge Joshua Alexander, of Gallatio. to try th case. At her first trial Mrs. Kenned was given 10 years in the peniter tiary.
She killed her husband, Phi ip H. Kennedy, agent for a loca transportation company, a month a ter their marriage because he refuse to live with her. The action was creditable toJudg Wofford. Realizing that he was bia ed in the case he refused to bear i If every judge whose feelings wer enlisted on one side or the other of case coming before him for trial wa to follow Judge Wofford's exampli there wonld be more instances of tb: kind. Tne second of the series of inte national yacht races between the Ri hanco (tho American boat) an Shamrock III (the British boat) wa sailed cff New York Saturday an the American boat won by seve minutes and three seconds.
Whii other races are to be sailed, the fac that tbe American boat has wen th first two means that she is tbe sup rior craft and will be the victor i the series of races. Tbo prize race for is a cup. Many years ago th international yacht races were estab lisbed. They are conducted sporting gentlemen who have a abundance of money and who bnil boats especially for racing purpose Many years ago tbe American spor captured the cup and ever sine British sports have been trying gain it and have failed. SirThoraa Lipton, an Irish baronet, is the own er of tbe Shamrock and he is no making his third trial to win the cup Ho has spent a pile of money building boats and is cuch an al round "dead game sport" that thon sands of Americans have gytnpa thized with him and hoped that 1 might win tbe race.
In fact tbo con tinnons winning of tbe cup by Amor icau boats has become monotonous Tho races demonstrate nothing ex cept that American boat builders ar superior to the English in tho COD stiuction of swift craft.

After a siege of cloudy, showery weather we are having a few dry days. This section has for several weeks boon favored with plenty ol rain, and while tbo rainfall has been abundant it has fallen with such reg nlarity as not to be excessive. Corn and cotton am making a favorable appearance. Early corn is practical ly made. Farmers have bad an un usually favorable time for breaking fallow land.
They complain that land dries out faster than it did a quarter of a century ago, and causes may exist which make their theory plausible. Year by year the country has become more barren of timber and as a result evaporation place more rapidly, consequently more rain required. The farmer has at last realized that there is a day for him and all be now needs is to judiciously bend bis energies am his future reward is assured. While other avocations have been reaching out and constantly extending their limits, tho farmer csn now come in for a full share of tbo seemingly nni versal prosperity. Notwithstanding short crops tho recent years, ther is no complaint of hard times among as, which might naturally be expect ed.

Between two and three thousand farmers gathered bore today from all over the, eastern tobacco growing counties to attend an important meeting to consider ways and means to remedy tbo existing low prices of leaf tobacco. Col. John S. Cunning bam, of Person county, presided and members of tbo State press, together with T. B.
Parker, of Hillsboro, were secretaries. After several hours ot speech-making a committee, appointed to report plans to remedy tbe evil complained of, made its report embodied in a set of resolutions provid ing for the establishment of local stock companies to buy, store and manufacture tobacco while it is bo low the cost of production. The convention adopted the committeb's re port. The plan adopted provides that the corporation to be organized may buy, sell, handle, and in any manner deal in and with leaf tobacco and manu factured tobacco, to manufacture to bacco into plug, twist, cigars, ciga rettes, cheroots, smoking tobc.coo and any and all other forms. To op erate warehouses upon commission or otherwise, also prize bouses, stem merios and any and all other houses incident or necesfary to carry on a general tobacco business.
Farmers may take stock in warehouses and factories by putting in tobcco as capital instead of cash.
