Atlantic Coast Line and associated and nubf (diary linen. AmonK th?>m wo? Mr. Mark Potter, president of thc Kroft, "Clincbfield" road. Thia road le. jr>*rr<:at coal car rying nirency. ?rnin li:n ?'Hnr ifield coal Held? of West Virgina to Spax tanburg. . t lt was planned ultimately to er. tond this lino to Brunsbek, Qa., but for tiio present the road proposed to use tho track? or the Charleston & Western Coralina bul ot' Bpartanburg to Greenwood and thence to AuRUHta and thence to Charleston or Beaufort. Some time ago this paper published a suggestion from Mr. D. Hcnnig, freight traffic manager of tho An derson Chamber of Commet ce, to tho effect that Anderson should try to got tho Clnichfield road to bulid from Spartanbur? to thin. city. Mr. Henning has wide acquaintance THE COAST LIN What means announcement from Columbia that the ('oust Line will take over the Charleston and Western Carolina? Wo believe that it will mean some big things. The Coast Lino has never owned the road, although the C. & W. C. has bc.-MI I'operated by the tinnier system. We heard something,^?,'a year ago that the Coast Line would endeavor to get tho ownership of the C. & W. C. and that there would be considerable extension work done. The invest ing alargo amount of money in terminals in Anderson shows that the road has something in view. The Editor of the Intelligencer learned in Columbia Mondsy that this bill would probably be introduced and requested some information from Mr. F. Barron Grier, general counsel of tho C. & W. C., snd of Mr. p. AA?tin Willcox, gen eral counsel for the Coast Line. But neither of these gentlemen had any thing for ?ubllcu\mrrat the time. Mr. Albert W. Anderson, general super-, tuieimuui vi tho C. & W.

The water works there are owned by the city and have cost about 1800.000, including money to be spent on extension wore. Mv. Elmore sUtej,that council ls not seoking to impose any hard ship on the Publfac?Ttice company in r?quiri?g mouvraie " hydrants to bo placed here, for it is not demanded | that this work be.donp right away, or taut it he done at all. But he in-1 ?tata Mist .v. .by ..v. .? ?I-Vi? Ito say at some tittie tn" the future, when lt purchases -a J tire engine, that thc hydrants must have opening?, large enough fpr^tho / suction . pipe ot the steamer, frh&wlse the pur chase of a steamer would be a waste ; of money. It will beconraVaeseaaary osme day to have a steamer and we feel that the council ts dotnjj, no injustice to thee ompany to require that when tue nnderwriters' association demands these hydrants in order to glv An derson a lower firs-insurance rat [ lng, the public service' company will do it under the contract Ot course lt wflvrM unjust to the public service corporation to re quire them to put "ttr trrese expensive hydrants unless there was presen tend pressing need f^jjthera. sjfd^wo under stand that council does not seek to requite anything tfcat ls not just.

Seeing Mr. Potter In close conference with thy heads of thc Atlantic l eant Line and tho Charolston and Western Caroliuu. The Intelligencer asked him if there wnw ? flinneo nf MK road being bu here. "That Is one of the matters that we now hate before us" was his reply. The Cllnchficld would not .?top hero if lt should come to Anderson, and it would bu euro to go to Atlanta and from thor? tie up with the Atlanta Birmingham and Atlantic, which lins Euch splendid terminals in Atlanta and at thc preat port of Brunswick. Wu believe that it would be worth the while of the people of Anderson to keep in touch with Mr. Potter. Ho has already accomplished a seem ingly impossible feat, of building a ono per cent grade road acioss the mountains. E'S BIG MOVE that his road had the matter under advisement, and he believed that the consolidation would mean something for this section of thc stete. Mr. An derson stated that the company is ready to go to work hero on the im provements. He docB not feel that his company was treated properly in the condemnation proceedings to acnuirc a lot from the Chancellors, but he ls -not crying over spilt milk. Ho declares that his road has made all of Ute real estate in that part of the city more valuable and one of tho penalties of this is that he must pay tho price himself. Ho stated that it not the intention of the company to acquire the eyesores on the corner of South Main and West Market, for he has no fortune to spend on any more dirt. The C. & W. C. has been ballasting its rocks and making other physical improvements and we believe that this merger a? proposed is calculated to be of great value to the county of Anderson.

GOVERNMENT BY THE JUDICIARY Judge Clark of North Carolina Adresses People's Institute In New York (By Associated Press.) ; New York, Jan. 28.-Declaring that all the powers of the government, both federal and state He at the feet of a "judicial obligarchy" composed of the lawyers of the United States, Chief Justice Walter Clark, of the North Carolina Supreme' Court, ad dressing a meeting of thc People's In stitute at Cooper Union last night warned his fellow jurists tluoughout the country to take heed lest their power prove their undoing. Dis cussing "Government by Judges" Jus tice Clark said: "lt ha? been Bald that a contented people have no annals. The present unrest among the people; strange as it may seem, Iso ne of th? best signs of the times. When people'are con tent tiley either are Ignorant of bet ter conditoins or hopeless of attain ing them, "In this country, as in all countries, the con*Tot of thc government is in Hie hands of the few. We have learn ed that thc- form of government amounts to little. The real question is 'where does the control of govern ment reside':' "In 1776 we issued a declaration pro claiming the rights of mankind, by a decision of the Supreme Court of the United States, without a line in the constitution to authorize it, when that body assumed the right to veto nny act of congres they chose to hold un constitutional. "Tills doctrine was promptly seized upon as the boon by the special in terests and by all who believed nt heart in the government of the many for the benefit of the few. It haB practically made the courts tho domi nant pow<?r in ?very state in the union. Whenever any progressive statute has not been In acsord with the economic views entertained by the courts, htcy have generally exercised their power to declare such statute unconstitutional because it waa hot 'due process ot law.''" Justice Clark uaid that if tho consti tution bau really given the juusvu right tc aet aside a statute, it would have given the leg ?slat iye branch tho same power in case of an executive veto. "However plausible," he con tinued, "the arguments in favor bf judicial supremacy its friends cannot point to a line in the constitution which confers it." * NEAL'S CREEK NEWS * Special to The Intelligencer.
