. ii THE EASTERN REFLECTOR AND FRIDAY. WHICHARD, and Proprietor. Entered in the post office at Greenville, N. C, as Advertising made upon application. A correspondent desired at every post office in Pitt and adjoining counties. to to Pitt N. June 1904. Greenville is making some his- too. How did shout for Teddy up in the windy city. The man who is not satisfied with the ticket nominated by the convention is hard to suit. It is all over and several of them did not get it. Lieutenant Governor Winston sounds nil right. The state savers who did not get it can go home Mid turn their to saving something else. Durham is very much exercised over a lost man. There were who got lost at Greensboro. I jump up and say told you You hoped Glenn would get it but you were scared just the same. Most of congressional so far held in this state have the present represent- should prepare any speeches for the n t but their ell for the hustings it is likely i i;. attendance at the Greensboro convention will forget it in a life time The boisterousness of the state and calling of who attempted to speak was not creditable to conservative democrats. When the St, Louis convention hows Bryan that attacks on are of no avail, perhaps he will be ready to g and keep quiet. We hold to the opinion that an factory in Greenville would pay. There is much ice consumed here and the small towns near by could, also be supplied from this point. The nomination of Hon. B. Glenn for governor brings much gratification to his friends through- out the state. He will make an ideal governor and will fill the ex- chair with credit to himself and the state. As the cut and dried proceeding of the republican national could have been put led off in an hour, the crowd was probably held together three days to give the Chicago hotels a good chance to work them or to let them sober down enough to return Ex-Judge Roberson, of North Carolina, must ha.-e committed the unpardonable sin from the way the republican convention in Chicago sat down upon him. They ousted him a member of the national convention. Guess he can stand that better than he could attending with member. Fairbanks got a tail hold on the rough rider's steed. it is Roosevelt and Fairbanks on the republican ticket. Butler shouting for Roosevelt what was expected. The left estimators can now tell how their man did not get it. They voted all night day light, and nominated Glenn in the morning. Glenn got it all right, even if the message did come to us fifty instead of five ballots. Interest will next center in the democratic national convention at St. Louis July 6th. Now let those who did not get it throw themselves into the in behalf of the winner.

It is a on the farmer and a measly bid to merchants to advocate the open loon. The farmers do not go to town to get liquor, but some of them, when they get into a saloon town are tempted and tried and ed by the insidious saloon until they do drink and drunk. For a town to set up such as the saloon to get business from the farmer should be resented by the farmer as unjust to him. Let the farmer beware of the town that tries to lure him into a saloon.

This is not a new nor an final statement but it is a true one, and it bodes no good to the world.

It will not be long till they will don it and substitute the dispensary for it. There may be some sales of whiskey in would be strange if there were not but we believe the business done by is at a minimum. We look for the sale of whiskey through the dispensary to get less and less every year.

Last October, after the conclusion of the Haywood murder case, we argued that in the matter of challenges of men, the prosecution I should bare the same nu miter of challenges M the defense. showed that this is the tendency in other States, and t hat for over, the is allowed twice as as the while in , North he has five limes as many. We are bloodthirsty, and we would give the prisoner every reasonable concession. But, it is enough, in all conscience, that he should have twelve chances to one before only to convince one juryman of bis probable innocence Jo escape while the must convince twelve jurymen of his positive in order convict. It is enough, as we then said, for the prisoner to have twelve chances to; one before the jury, without the additional advantage of that jury. These facts the of act- ion are brought more impressively to mind by a letter now before us written by officer of long ex- in our Superior Court.-.
