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: “The 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. | “Why not Cook, Doctor?” 1 asked. “Well 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 Abbott’s denial, that the Southern did have a great deal € do with Cook’s 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 “catch the minority whale and feed the gailroads, while Charlie Qook is leit to hustle for No, land nurse Bis wrath. Whether Dr. Abbott kuows it er not the Southern Railway's 2d fluence in the nation’s counel!s —Jim Boyd. for instance—did fieht Cook, and fought him with all the power they were able to muster. They didn’t need Sook They Lave already once telt the fore of his blow, the cut of his ateel, Bui Pernard—he’s a8 much a ebatt: 1 of the corporations as dim Bovd. Fat, Ivmpbatie and Mentally imitative, Bernard pos- sesses the talent of coming when be’s ca'led and going wher he’s sent. He’s a good trailer, and ovce he’s set he'li “stay st.” The corporations can place} Bernara, turn his face to any point of the compass, and leave ~ Bim with safety. When they get back he’il 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 Bernard’s 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 Bernard’s 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? Let’s 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 he’s 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. Russeli’s 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 can’t 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 doesn’t 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.

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 “connections” for the bowels. Then, aftor avout three hours “carving” 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.
