These are the very con ditions that are calculated to produce the spirit of daring, self-reliance and manhood. They produced those splendid qualities of humsn nature. "The Southern army illustrated that. It was not a well-disciplined army. It waa not n ramarkably well drilled army, but It was one of men —men who loved freedom, men who loved their homes, men who loved constitutional liberty, men who lov ed their own simple life. They eedldn’t care much about money. It sms not • money-making age in the South, with one or two exceptions Hera and there a fortune had been accumulated, of course. But the vast majority of tba men In the - Southern nrmy were of limited means; men who owned little homes la the country.

I believe we. especially the peo pie of North Carolina, are a war like race. I ro not believe there la one more so on the American con tinent. When the United States call ed for troops In the war with Spain the young men of the South hurried forward. It was my privilege to be with them for a time.

S O CURT AIL’S MAYOR’S POWERS. Judge Aldrich Renders an Important Decision. different class of men. a spirit and An appeal case from the mayor’s court Involving an Important ques tlon of jurisdiction, was decided be (ore Judge Aldrich In the Sessions court at Anderson last week. The appeal was from a decision of the mayor Imposing a fine of one hundred dollars or thirty days for selling whiskey, and the decision reversed the mayor. Appellant's counsel took the po sition that the mayor's court had no jurisdiction to try a defendant charg t *d with selling whiskey, maintaining that the mayor had only concurrent jurisdiction with the magistrate, and that, aa the statutes gave a magis trate no Jurisdiction to try such case the mayor was bound by the same statute's limitation. The gen era! statutes give the mayor of the city the same powers aa a magis trate, and It was argued by counsel for the defense that a city counsel could not extend by ordinance the jurisdiction defined by the Legis ture. The decision of Judge Aldrich in ?ase it is sustained by the Supreme court will be of the most far reach Ing consequences. It might seriously hamper the enforcement of the llqour law In every town and city in the State. All that the police depart ment of a city could do would be to make arrests and have warrants Issued by a magistrate. The magis trate would then, If upon a pn»- ■ • • --^f 1 n ” er houses, which had been awarded contracts for liquors. Attorney General Lyons was asked about the matter. He said that tbs facts In the esse were that the Bern helm Distilling Company had offered to the dispensary commission $30, 000, and that the money is on de posit in the Louisville banks. The fact that this company wished to turn over this large sum of money came over the telephone from the Atlanta firm of Anderson, Felder, Rountree A Wilson. It Is under stood, though not obtained official ly, that the Atlanta firm secured the settlement, but It also appears that the money comes voluntary. The niat- ter is settled now, and the money belongs to the State of South Car olina. The remarkable part of the whole transaction is that the Bernhetm firm had no claim against the State of South Carolina. The money that the State owed this firm had been previously paid up and the books were closed. To offer $30,000 and then to turn the money over Is clearly an admission that there were overcharges. Although there had been a general understanding that some of the whis key firms might possibly "cough up' this transaction is a new one in its nature. It Is known James 8. Far num represented the Bernheim firm here during the days of the State dispensary. In the recent trial of Mr. Farnum It was mentioned in the testimony that this was one of the firms that he represented. The payment of $30,000 to the State Is taken as an admission tnat the State was overcharged at least this much and that rebates were paid. This is the only difference that can be drawn. Aside from the fact that the money has been tendered the State, it was very difficult to obtain any official Information It was known recently that there was a secret meeting of the dispen sary commission and very probably this matter came up at tbe_J.

Then there will be no repetition of the very unsatisfactory and deplor able conditions that existed to such a striking extent last fall, tremen dously handicapping the farmers in cancelling their pecuniary obliga tions. No hills will have to be car ried over for another year, but debts will be paid promptly, and farmers, bankers, merchants and others in terested will enjoy the splendid pros perity that is the Inevitable result of the farmer being his own boss.. Many a farmer joins the Union thinking that a membership in the organization is all that is necessary in obtaining satisfactory results from their farming operations. They don't seem to realize that unless they carry out their obligation a* representatives of that organization they will never come into the pos session of the manifold bleseings and benefits that must inevitably result from a full discharge of tne duties and obligations that rest up on them as members of that organi zation Unless they remain steadfastly in their loyalty to the principles of the Union, every fall they will be con fronted by the awful realization that necessity forces them to surrender to the cotton manipulators of Wall street in order to meet their com mercial obligations with the bankers and merchants and others with whom they have dealings. This surrender means low prices for their cotton and the consequent disasters attend ant upon it. The agricultural mir ror In the South reflects a very sad state of affairs. Indeed It reflects the heart-rending spec tacle of thousands upon thousands of farmers bowing down to the pro fcrsional gamblers of Wall etrset, suffering the terrible and almost un bearable humiliation and mortifica tion of having others dictate the price of the products that they have injured In making their ^■ape from the building.
