Anent the appointment of. Mr.
C. M, Bernrrd as District Attor-
mey, the Raleigh News and Ob-
gerver prints the following inter-
esting article as to who will
probably be his successor ae
Solicitor of this judicial district:
It is now a settled fact thxt
@iauce Bernard, of Pitt, will be
District Attorney:
oThe President told Senator
Writchard Monday that he would
a@pooint Barnard, but not Cook,�
gaid Railroad Commissioner Ab-
hott yesterday on his arrival here
fom Washington. |
oWhy not Cook, Doctor?� 1
asked.
oWell tbat is not for me to sav:
put 1 will say this, it was not
Because the Southern Railway
apposed him, as 18 generally
gu pposed.�
But it is well known, despite
Pr AbbottTs denial, that the
Southern did have a great deal
�,� do with CookTs rejection.
Another equally strong Cen
gideration was the continuation
of Fusion. The Republicans
realize that they are between the
qevil and the deep blue sea
politically and they are lookiny
to the Kopulists as the Moses who
isto deliver them. Skinner aid
Bis minority crowd roust be fixed,
they reaconed, and theu all things
abali be added unto us.
Now Skinner wanted Bernard,
for Bernard is from his towe and
will uso bis influence pext time In
sending him back to Congress.
So little Claudie Pernard was the
fub thrown out to ocatch the
minority whale and feed the
gailroads, while Charlie Qook is
leit to hustle for No, land nurse
Bis wrath.

The corporations can place}
Bernara, turn his face to any
point of the compass, and leave
~ Bim with safety. When they get
back heTil be right there. Ist is
these brilliant qualities that has
won him vhat good fat job. No
man constructed on any other
ground plan covld have gotten it.
It was for such purposes as
this that Jim Boyd was given his
place: To make all the other
fellows who haye anything to do
with the courts pass a sort of
corporatioa monopoly people be-
d"m examination before giving
them 3a commission. He looks
upon 4 corporation a8 @ sacred
thing and will allow no man to
lay protaning hards upon one of
them. A valuable man to the
Southern Railway is Jim Boyd.
Will the hungry horde of office
seekers neyer tire? Hardly had
the wires announced BernardTs
good luck before there was & mad
rush for the office of solicitor
that will be made vacaut by his
acceptance of the district attor-
neyship. . ladeed, all the Repub-
lican and Populist lawyers in the
Third jadicial. district have been
quiet candidates for several
weeks in anticipation of BernardTs
winning vut. Then as 800D as: it
was known that he hac really
passed under tne wire the scram-
ble began openly.
Here is a list of the Republican
and Populist lawyers 1n the Third
district: Wheeler Martin, (Rep-.)
Williamston; Augustus Moore,
(Rep.),: Greenville ; KE. Victor
Cox, (Rep.) Greenville ; W. 3B.
Bailey, (rop-); Louisburg; Bay-
Ius Cade, (Pop.), Franklinton.
Which one will it be? LetTs
see.
The judge in this district"
Timberlake"is a Populist, so the
solicitor, with Gov. Russeli to do
the appointing, will be Repub-
lican. That gets rid of Bailey
and Cade, though both of them
are candidates.
Then of the Republicans, there's
Wheeler Martin, whose name
may alxo be erased, for heTs not a
candidate, his friends sav. If he
wats the appointmeht he can
probably got it. In proof of this
assertion it is only to remind the
who wade & minority reportin the
Republican State convention 1D
favor of seating the Russell del
egates and this report was adopt-
ed theugh all the rest of the
committee opposed it. But for
this report and 1ts adoption
Russell could never have been
nominated. ~hough it 18 said
that there is no such word as
eratitude in Gov. RusseliTs vocab-
lary, be has not forgotten this, and
if Wheeler Martin wants to be
sohieitor be will ba app dinted.
Both Cox and Mocre are can-
didates and want the place bad
Cox canTt get it. There are
several reasons for this. One is
evough to mention here: ~ihe
Governor made him a trustee of
the A. and M. College: Cox be-
came disgusted at the co. pany
he was in aud had the bravery to
write to the Governor and tell
him so and resign. This His
Excellency considered an unpar-
donabie piece of insubordination.
Tboug! Gvs Moore came all
the way back to North Carolina
from the State cof Washington to
run tor Congress, he is willing
and apxious for the present to b.
even solicitor. And the Goyernor
is willips to wake him 50 it
Wheeler Martin doesnTt want it.
Gov. Russell and Mc. Moore were
old eollege chums, then clacs-
wates, then studied law together.
Forthe suke of od times he'll
appoint Gus Moore, thougn he
hasu't been in the stata a year
and wou'd therefore be inelligible
to an election as solicitor.

* WHAT NEXT 2
It is claimed in the National
Record that a woman 18 DOW
living who has no stomach, that
supposed to be important part of
her anatomy haying .been re-
moved in September. A month
later she left her bed and is now
an attendant in a hospitai, doing
a regular hand's work. -
The story is a long one. She
is 59 years old. For ysars she
had suffered with her stomach:
Treatment was of no avail.
Fiaally the doctors decided on
an operation, When disclosed
to view the stomach was found
to be hardened: The eminent
physician said she would die
with a stomach like that. She
would probably dio if it was re
moved. However, he had his
ideas, so out he cut 11, making the
proper oconnections� for the
bowels. Then, aftor avout three
hours ocarving� ho sewed her up.
The result is that 1t is about to
revolutionize things. That a
person can live without a stom"
ach has never been thought of,
but this woman is living. The
story 8~ uads incredible, but if 18
veuched for by the Medical
Record, the highest authority ia
the country.
