a PAGE THREE Abhorrent to Crucify Judge' Who Stands For Justice. his stand for justice and right, must be abhorrent to all people who are in their right minds. Charlotte Chronicle. In a little editorial a few days ago about the efforts being made to defeat Judge Long, the Chronicle apto bave discovered the source pears from which the opposition to him comes. Following up what we said in tbat paragraph, it might not be amiss to say that we are not personally acquainted with Judge Long.
We have never met him, yet we know by his record that be is a good and fearless judge- just the sort the people of North Carolina want to keep on the bench. In view of this fight that is being made on Judge Long, it is entirely proper to call attention to a few things. One is that holding the judicial office which be does, Judge Long could not afford to go into a scramble for renomination. We believe that he is rated as one of the best judges of the Superior Court bench in the State. And, again, we are losing some of our best.
Three experienced judges have recently retired and one other has said that he can no longer afford to remain in the service. In view of these facts, it becomes the people of the State to look well into the matter of the judiciary. The Chronicle is no spokesman for Judge Long, but it takes this much for granted: That his labors as a judge are congenial with his chosen field, that he has "made good," as the saying goes, on the bench, and that by every right, be should be given another term, not only by way of vindication, but by way of endorsem*nt, for the idea of a judge being crucified by reason of Wireless Telegraph "Operators" Worked the Public For a Big Sum. Charlotte Chronicle. In the report of the arrest of the wireless telegraph "operators," it is said of one of them Columbus Wilson, by name--that he "is a financier of the self-made school." It would seem so.
An ditor found that the value of his patents was $20,233. After the auditor had gone, this self-made financier, by a couple of strokes of the pen in the skillful manipulation of two figure 5s, made the value of these patents soar skyward to the extent of $5,520,233. The inspactor who pulled the shop in which these operators worked the sucker game, found, after a laborious process of figuring, that the wireless stock has an actual market value, that is worth about $.004 a share. Some of the bolders paid as bigh as $50 a share for this stock, but the majority got in on the ground floor at from $12 a share. The game was profitable.
It was the biggest grafting lay out that bas been uncovered in years. One of the partners is said to bave salted down $15,000,000 as his share of the profits and the other, two did approximately as well. The wonder is that their joint was not pulled months ago. Meanwhile, bolders of wireless stock might be induced to part with their holdings at a lower rate than they would have considered yesterday. Death of Mr.
Fred. Williams -A Worthy Young Man. Correspondence of The Landmark. Died, pear Hamptonville, N. June 80b, 1910, Miles Frederick Williams, son of Mr.
and Mrs. Lewis Williams, aged 26 years. His death was very sad to the whole family, especially so to his father and mother, with whom he lived. He was the only one of their children with them, to cheer, comfort and help tbem in their declining years. Fred.
was a young man loved and highly, respected by all of his young associates of the vicinity, for be was a true and perfect model of piety and kindness inevery respect. No one ever heard him use an unkind or disparaging remark of any one. He had been a member of Flat Rock Baptist church for nine years and his Christian walk and sober, trustworthy character, was the remark of every one. Kind friends and neighbors, with experienced doctors, helped the grief stricken family to render assistance in every way possible, but all efforts to save life failed. He bore his confinement and affliction with true Christian fortitude and often expressed himself as ready and willing to make the all-important and awful change.
With his parents be leaves two brothers, W. F. and L. S. Williams, and two sisters, Mrs.
Richardson and Mrs. Carter. Burial services by Rev. S. S.

Richmond Times-Dispatch, Sir Moses Jacob Ezekiel has come to his native city on a brief visit after years spent in the pursuit of his art in other lands.
Born in Richmond, educated at the Virginia Military Institute, baptized with fire at New Market, and loyal always to the best traditions of his State, he comes back to his home again for a few days to mingle with the people who have never forgotten him and who take a personal pride in his great achievements in the world of art. In 1869 Sir Moses began the study of sculpture at the Royal Academy in Berlin, and so impressed the artists of the day by his colossal bust of Washington that he was admitted to the Society of Artists, and won the Michael Beer prize, then firstawarded to a foreigner. After completing his studies in Berlin he set up his studio in the ruins of the Baths of Diocletian in Rome, and there he has wrought miracles in bronze and sione. His first large work was a group representing "Religious now one of the principal art treasures of the city of Philadelphia, and among his other much-discussed sculptures are his "Eve Hearing the "'The Daughter of "Judith," "Napoleon," madonna for a church in Tivoli, eleven statues of famous artists for the Corcoran Gallery in Washington, and the Jefferson Monument in Louisville, Kensucky. He has just presented to she University of Virginia a splendid statue of Jefferson, and wherever he has wrought he has wrought with the soul of the artist.
"His workis characterized by great technical skill in the carving, and he was the first to introduce the German and new Italian styles of sculpture to this country. He was knighted by the King of Italy for his work and for the impetus it bas given to art.
