A TESTIMONIAL- Farmville N. C. July 1st 1907. To whom this may concern. This is to certify that I suffered with constipation and for years. In fact my stomach trouble was contracted during the civil war while living and serving on the frontier with Co. E. N. C. Reg, Daniel's Brigade. Upon returning from the war my health gradually became worse until my was such, that I almost gave up to die I was treated by the best skilled physicians within reach, without results, and finally I was advised by Dr. C. J. to discontinue all medicines and drugs and try the waters of Green Spring, on the late Howell Joyner's farm, which I did. From that day I never took another dose of cine, and to my surprise in a few- days. I found that I could eat any thing I pleased without any unpleasant feeling or burning I sensation in my stomach. My constipation was changed into and instead of retched and tired some nights I enjoyed sweet rest and blissful sleep. In two months I gained from lbs. to lbs. Furthermore during my suffering from I had on both my less what the doctors pronounced eczema ulcers, which were as large as the palm of my hand. I began bathing them in the I water and they healed in two weeks without leaving the least sign or scars. Twelve years have elapsed since I began using this water, and I have not felt the least of indigestion or seen any sign of ulcers I can truthfully say I only wish all suffering humanity knew us much of the virtues of the waters J.

Neither President Roosevelt nor the Department of Justice desired Judge Pritchard to issue his writ of habeas corpus. of the department o Justice hold that the case was purely one for the State courts, and that Judge Pritchard when applied to by the Southern Railroad should have refused to act. His ion is called here the worst shock Roosevelt's administration has yet received.

The President is embarrassed by the appearance of federal in- just at the time he is seeking to secure solid from the South to the next Republican nominating for himself of his legatee. To make matters worse, Judge Pritchard must be supported to the end.

E Preen C. R. Aycock and E. J. Justice appeared and lodged a motion for the trial of the prisoner on the ground that there was a move on the part of the counsel and Green to delay any trial until the arrival of a process from the fed- court to take the case and custody of the prisoner from j the state court. Ex-Judge A. C. A very made answer for the that had just from his home ; in Morganton, and had had no I time to investigate as to the rights of his client or confer with associates as to the best course to pursue. What he wanted was time to prepare for the proper defense of Green, whom he had been retained to defend. E J. Justice, of counsel the prosecution, arose to inter- Judge A very in his re- marks to the court, but was cut If with the fling that he was not there preparing any material for the text campaign, but solely for purpose of and defending the rights of his client. In a statement from the bench Judge Long took the position that if it was the purpose of counsel for the Southern to and delay the court and in the end deny the jurisdiction of this court and strive to have the prisoner by a process from the federal court, then no time would be allowed. On behalf of the Southern, F. H. Busbee made answer that tor the information of the court he would say that he had been en- gaged in the preparation of a plea to be filed in this court, but he could make no pledge as to whether it would be approved or used when the counsel came to confer regarding the matter. The answer of Judge Long question is, do you propose to recognize the jurisdiction of this court, or will you seek t this court's proceeding.-, with writs from other The answer was that the defense might, after file a i plea as to jurisdiction, but no not to take the case to the j federal court through special process be elicited from j counsel. The outcome of the cross-firing I was Judge Lon that he would call the case for hearing at twelve o'clock. The general understanding was that a writ of habeas corpus was expected to arrive from Judge Pritchard on the 12.45 train. Counsel went their way. However, just before noon, Long summoned the in the case before him and read to Sheriff Sears a order from the court directing him to surrender prisoner into the custody of court, and directing the prisoner to remain at the bar of the court when in session was because it was known that a Writ of habeas corpus was expected here from the federal court at any time, the sheriff produce the prisoner before the federal judge, and the custody of the prisoner the sheriff would vacate this writ, and no such process could apply to Judge Long while holding the prisoner in his own custody. h can be forced to trial at the of the court THE MAJOR TIES Two Married. Major Henry Harding is much in demand these days as a joiner of ties Wednesday evening a colored couple. Walter Knight and Bettie Walker, who had first visited Register of Deeds Williams and armed themselves with the prop- or implement, took themselves to the office of Major Harding for him to put on the touches, which he did in good style. Early this morning there was a call from a white couple run away from county and came here to get married- They started on their journey about o'clock and were before many people were stir . ring. Not knowing just who to apply in for license they first sent for Clerk of the Court and hustled him out. Ho the wrong man to issue kind of document wanted.

Amongst the various towns which made effort to secure the school Greenville stood first with the committee, and barring the local interests of the towns which made effort for the school, we believe the people of the State will agree with the decision of the committee. people of Greenville and Pitt county have shown a laudable enterprise in the matter from the very beginning. Indeed, as we remember it, the first movement for such school came from Pitt county. Certain it is that the people of that county have heroically for the school, and they have nothing done to have the school located at Greenville.

It may strike the average man as a strange thing that the of North Carolina, with the large appropriations that are made to it by the State and it splendid prestige as a seat of learning, should furnish so few of the prominent leaders in our political life. The two Senators of the United States are Trinity men; a third of our congressional delegation are Wake Forest boys, and our solicitors, judges, and other prominent come largely from the de- colleges. All this, too. in the face of the fact that the Chapel Hill alumni are as loyal as a band of Masons, and in the various conventions are always on hand to pull the wires in favor of the graduates of their alma mater. There must be a reason why the University lag behind the others in the race for the offices, for everybody knows that office is a passion with the average Chapel Hill man, and many a fond father for- sakes his own church college and sends his boy to the University under the mistaken notion that his chances for political promo- are increased by having be- hind him the influence of this great college.
