The Wilson Advance. Entered in the Post Office at Wilson, N. C., as second class mail matter. . C. F. WILSON, Editor and Proprietor. 'For the cause that lacks assistance, For the wrong that needs resistance, For the future in the distance, And the good that we can do." Thursday, July 21st, 1892. NOTICE. The members of the township Democratic Executive Committees ate hereby requested to meet in Wil son Saturday, July 23rd, 1892, to transact business of importance. W. W. FARMER, Ch'm Co. Dem. Ex. Com. Gen. Weaver's record is not pleas ant reading for the honest men of the South. Every vote cast by a Democrat for the Third Party nominees counts one tor Harrison. Don't forget this. "The North Carolinian" is the name of a paper Mr. Josephus Daniels will begin in Raleigh Au gust 1 St. Mr. E. T. Hale becomes sole owner of the FayetteviHe Observer. Mr Whitehead, who made such a bril liant success, is city editor at present Success to the rising and setting sun. 1 1 r r w e are in receipt 01 a communi cation presenting; the name of our excellent countyman, Mr. Elias G Barnes, as a candidate for the legisla ture. It will appear next week. The country is teeming with the news of strikes, murders rapes and lynchings. Every mail adds to the horrible list. Is the remedy legisla tion, or the enforcement of existing laws ? Mr. Y. T. Ormond, Chairman of the Democratic Executive Commit tee of this district, requests us to an nounce that the Convention will be called to order at 1 1 o'clock in Scot land Neck next Wednesday. The times are clearing off. Rea son is returning. The people want to do right. They want to be informed. Wc have an abiding faith in the con servatism of our people. They will therefore continue to stand for Demo cracy. The Vance Farmer, published by P. G. Rowland, at Henderson, Vol. 1, No. 1, has been received. "One m ore unfortunate" ventures upon the sea uncertain of North Carolina journalism. May favoring winds blow it into prosperity's safe harbor. "The Third Party here is losing ground every day," a well posted and intelligent gentleman wrote us yes terday from Elm City. "The leaders have nothing to say," continues he, "as to the present situation." We do not believe there is a man in Wilson county who loves his family, his home, his native Southland, who will vote for Gen. Weaver, after reading his record. A day rarely passes that some fanner does not come into The Ad vance office and express himself about as follows : "Well, I had thought I would not vote for Cleve land if my party nominated him. I have never said so. But I can't stand Weaver, and his record. And, after all, I guess Cleveland is the truest, honestest man I can vote for, and my best friend. Of the three evils I will choose the least, and shall stand by my old party once more." And is this not the most reasonable thing to do ? In his letter to Tammany Hall re gretting his inability to be present at their 4th of July celebration, Senator David B. Hill gave, as we understand it, the whole idea of Democracy and what it stands for in one masterly sentence. Read the following, which he wrote : - t "In my judgment the hope of the people lies in the success of the Democratic party. Better than any other political organization it protects their rights and represents their best interests. It has always been the de fender of constitutional liberty and of the reserved rights of the States. It opposes centralization ; it boldly maintains the doctrine that Federal taxation should be for public rather than for private purposes ; it advocates K . . ,1.. u 1 -1 iiuucai uiiMicy me goiu ana silver j euiieiicy ui our constitution ; it iavors home rule for States and municipal- I ltics ; it insists on an honest and economical expenditure of public moneys ; it opposes force bills, Fed eral interference in the domestic af fairs of the State; it antagonizes mo nopolies ; it is the friend of labor and it hates hypocricy, sham and fraud. These tenets of our faith, thus epi tomized, constitute a patriotic platform on which every lover of his country may safely stand, and to which he may proudly declare his allegiance on his nation's birth-day." AS REGARDS THOMAS DIXON. We believe the Reverend gentle man is going "plum' crazy." His style of preaching is certainly not calculated to bring many souls to Christ. Louisburg Times. We think our friend Thomas is a trifle mixed up. It was not Tom Dixon's preaching that got him in trouble. It was what he said in his review of current events and entirely apart from his sermon. His preach ing is "Christ and Him crucified," as those who read his sermons can attest, and the fact is, his preaching is meeting- with phenomenal success. His like has never before been heard -of in New York City, where it re quires genius of a high order to make one's self heard. APPRECIATED SYMPATHY. (SPECIAL COR. TO THE ADVANCE). Goldsboro, July 15, 1892. r Mr. Editor : Accept my thanks for this week's Advance which I found particularly interesting. I am glad to see you are an admirer of fine poetry. But Be warned in time by my fate. Beware of the maiden with dark brown hair. Let me not have to sing, within a few days, this mel ancholy diege : There was a nice fellow named Claude, A maid once his frozen heart thawed ; This coquetish girl Set his brain in a whirl, And left him considerably chawed. Sympathetically Yours, L. D H. He cupid may We are sorry for our friend, has been the victim of a cruel and sincerely desires that we escape a similar fate. But he has no taste, and we are in no danger. The "maiden" who caused him such un utterable woe, is 40 years old. She is 5 feet and weighs 96 pounds. Her sallow, freckled complexion, Drotruding chin upon which a wart daintily rests, beautiful false teeth, arched Romaneque nose, and lile like tones have no special charm for us, however much they tickle the taste of our friend. His in sinuation that our taste leans towards such an aesthetical creature is a base, calumnious charge, with no founda tion in fact. KLM CITY ITEMS. The News Fran Our Enterprising; Neigh boring; Town. - (SPECIAL COR. THE ADVANCE.) July, 17th, 1892. Rev. I. T. B. Hoover has been sick for several days. Miss Lena Hartsell opened school near here Monday. Mr. P. J. Turnbull cured a nice barn of tobacco last week. Dr. W. P. Mercer and wife left Monday for Wrightsville. Mr. J. W. Friar returned home from a business tour Tuesday morn ing. Rev. Q. C. Davis preached an excellent sermon at the Baptist church Sunday night. Miss Cora Lee Friar, one of our most beautiful and charming belles, made a visit to her uncle, Mr. W. D. Farmer, last week. Miss Lillie Bailey, one of Elm City's most queenly young ladies, opened school at Oak Grove school house near this place Monday. Mr. L. B. Winstead and wife re turned Thursday from Edgecombe where they had been a visit to Mrs. Winstead's mother, Mrs. H. L. Leggett. At recent meeting of the A. F. & A. M. the following offices were installed : J. L. Bailey, Grand master ; S. J. Carter, Senior Warden ; C, W. Massey Junior Warden ; J. T. Watson Sec'y ; B. R. Brinkley Treas. Who is the happiest man in town ? Why Mr. J. T. Watson, of course. They tell us the joy of his soul caused him to desecrate the Sabbath by dancing in the back yard, when they told him it was another bounc ing boy. At the last meeting of Centennial Lodge No 96, I. O. O. F. theollow ing officers were installed for the insuing term : Dr. E. G. Moore, Noble Grand ; C. W. Massey ; Vice Grand ; W. H. Pridgcn, Secry ; W. B- Barnes Treas. Mr. E. G. Williams brought in a nice load of melons early Monday morning. He tells us he has a very fine melon patch, in fact, they tell us his whole crop is very fine. Mr. Williams is a husder and what ever he puts his hands to moves. Mr. F- M. Williams, of Wilson, was here Monday. He was escort ing our girls around two at a time. That is right Mr. Williams. They richly deserve the attention of any man. No better, purer, nobler, sweeter set of ladies ever lived on the face of old .terra firma than are right here in Elm City. Dr. E. G. Moore, our eminentTy talented and sucessful physician, and his beautiful wife, left Monday for Morehead City, where they will spend a week sniffing the brackish breezes of the briny deep. We wish them a very pleasant trip. The Doctor has been hard worked during the summer and rest will evidently do him good. Mr. B. A. McDuffy of Greensboro is spending a few days here. They say he tries to get away constantly but gets to depot just after the train has moved off. During his slumbers at the hotel a few nights ago it is re ported that a guest in an adjoining room heard the following : "Miss Flonnie, oh Miss Flonnie, may God bless you and keep you till we meet again."

Distinguished North Carolina Boys Silver BUI if Dead Coneress Nearins an Ad journment Dr. Hayes Homesick, Whit ney will not Accept. (SPECIAL COR. THE ADVANCE.) Washington, July 17th, '92. The Senate confirmed Lieutenant Samuel C. Lemby, U. S. N., to be Judge-Advocate General of the Navy Saturday. He was nominated by the President a few days ago. Captain Lemly owes his position to a naval cadetship which he secured from the district now represented by Hon. A. H. A. Williams. He is a native of Salem, North Carolina, and stands deservedly high in naval circles here. His brother, Lieut. Henry. C. Lemly, U. S. Army, was educated at West Point and is now in charge of a mil itary academy at Bogota, which he has probably modelled after our military academy. He has made an enviable reputation in his South American home, and still holds, of course, his rank at half pay as an American army officer. These Mili tary and Naval cadetships open up a fine future to our boys when they have brains enough not to have their heads turned by the glitter of brass buttons and character enough not to become snobs. If they have not these two requisites it would be bet ter for them never to don their uni forms, tor they will be sure to dis grace them, their families and them selves. Mr. Plato Durham, of Greensboro, has been appointed to the vacant cadetship in that district at West Point by Hon. A. H. A. Williams. Mr. Durham was alternate for Mr. Landis, of Oxford, and deserves credit for passing the difficult en trance examination at the United States Military Academy. He will deserve more credit! if he succeeds in going through the four years course. He has my best wishes and I trust the young man realizes that il he is industrious, persevering and obedient he will secure a Lieutenancy in the U. S. Army with steady -promotion for life and besides a thorough edu cation with very valuable physical training. Two North Carolina boys stood at the top of the class at West Point last year and I hope the Greens boro cadet will emulate their exam ple. If he has any time before he enters, he ought to study Algebra, Geometry, History, Geography and Grammar. He will find that a knowlege of higher mathematics will prove a very considerable factor in his ultimate standing. The silver bill failed by a vote of eighteen. It ought never to have been up a second time. In fact the agitation of the subject at this session of Congress was ill-advised. The tariff is to be the issue of the cam paign and the Democratic party was and is pledged to lift the burdens oT this unjust taxation lrom the shoul ders of the people. The party would do well to confine itself to the duties and the promises of the present hour. Our delegation voted for the consid eration of the silver bill, as sentiment in the State was understood here to be in favor of it. Speaker Crisp said yesterday that he thought Congress would be ready to adjourn by July 25th, certainly by August 1st. Already a great many oeonle are leavine Washington to remain until the end of the heated term. Excursion tickets are sold on all the railroad routes. I notice the Pennsylvania railroad company advertises both the mountain and sea side resorts of our State and offers especial inducements to the tourist to investigate the marvelous advantages of such places as Asheville, Linville, Morehead, etc. I am glad to see this. All we need, with our magnifi cent resources, is the influx of a few energetic northern men to help us develop them. (Jne of the most tempting of these excursions offered by this railroad costs only $io lrom this point for the round trip. It in cludes Watkins Glen, Niagara Falls, Rochester, Buffalo, and easy access to the Thousand Islands and Canada, at small additional cost. The trains for excursion leave here July 21st, Aug. 4th and iSth, September 3rd and 29th. I know of one party from our State who will avail themselves of the trip in August and I presume many others will. A tourist agent and a chaperon will be on each train to give information to the excursion ists. This would be a good plan for some of our local railroads to adopt Dr. Mack Hays, who was begin ning to build up a practice here says he is home sick lor North Carolina and thinks of going back home. He savs he may make less money but he will have more comfort and sat isfaction among his own people. Mr. Whitney says positively he will not accept the Chairmanship of the National Democratic Committee. Mr. Harrity says he will if no better man can be found. Mr. Whitney thinks he can do better work in the ranks of the party and he will surely do his best Ten of the regular annual appro priation bills have gone to the Presi dent and have become laws or will very shortly. Thev are the military academy, legislative, diplomatic and consular, postofhee, army, navy, Indian, river and harbor, District of Columbia and agricultural bills. There are now none of the appropriation bills in conference and but three re main to pass through that stage, namely: I he sundry civil, now be fore the House for action on the Sen ate amendments; the fortification, ready for return to the House, and the deficiency, which was taken up by the Senate Saturday. Thomas Henry Carter has been chosen Chairman of the National Executive Committee. He is thirty eight years old, is a native of Ohio, has been a farmer, a railroad man, a school teacher, a lawyer and finally a politician. He has Hved in Illinois, Iowa and Montana. He was appoint ed by President Harrison Commis sioner of the Land Office, a position he now holds and which he will prob ably resign. From the above facts it is safe to infer that he is man of restless energy and unusual versatih- j and Kinston Free Press good news ty.

(EDITORIAL CORRESPONDENCE.) Morehead City, July 4th, '92. The following article was written for The Advance of July 7th. Oth er matter crowded it out and last week it shared a similar fate. We read it over to "Cousin Jack" Simms, who says its too good to lose, so we lay it before you this morning. Ed.1 Morehead ! The very name awak ens pleasant emotions. Memories of soft, entrancing moonlight dancing on glimmering waters kissed by cooling breezes ; ghostly white sails bending gracefully before whistlling winds ; white stretches of glistening sands ; great, towering waves, white-capped, foam-crested rolling tumultuously into a magnificent surf; beautiful, brilliant women, and handsome, gallant men these, and: many more ever come trooping back to the mind of one who has been here. To-day is this great nation's holi day. Celebrations are fit and proper. The national spirit and character of our nublic life must be preserved and kept alive. 1 believe it is one of the nation's safeguard to do this to inculcate in the minds of our peo ple the great fact that freedom is ours, having been bought with a price ; that it is ours to keep sacredly untarnished, inviolate and to hand down to posterity, to whom we owe infinitely more than to ourselves. But I digress. I am reminded of these things by the recolletion that Wilson wi to-day fitly celebrate this day the birthday of" Fieedom for Worlds. The preparations were all made ; the occasion well advertised. Mr. J. L. Mayo, the energetic mana ger of the Cornet Band, who has been the prime mover and the inspira tion of the occasion, has widely ad vertised it, and he has received valu able assistance. . I ran down here Saturday to spend Sunday. It is distressingly convenient to a man whose tastes lie in this direction and whose bank account is limited. You can leave Wilson at 2:17 p. m. and at 7:45 you are in the Atlantic Hotel here enjoying and elegant supper. Monday morning you leave at 7 o'clock, a. m. and at 12:58 p. m. you are in Wilson. That is tempting. I planned the trip, succumbing to the temptation. I fancied I needed change and rest. I now know it, especially change ! Alas for the frailty of man's plans ! I am here, and I purposed being in Wilson. It happened in this way : Last night I retired unusually late. The hour? Oh! I promised not to tell, and really it makes no difference what it was. My room was placed on the call for 6 o'clock. I have an indistinct idea of something troubling the sweetest kind of sleep and" I finally awoke. My room was a front one. One glance through the half open blind showed me a train full of people, and before I could wink my eye twice the train moved away in the most provokingly cool, slow, deliber ate way possible. Did you ever get left, when some one else was to blame for it ? If so, you know how I felt. Kick ? No ; I don't know how. I tumbled back into bed and thought. What was the use of kicking. I was left. No train until next day. No other means of leaving. That settled it. In ten minutes I was again asleep and my dream of Wilson fireworks was rudely awakened, at 11 o'clock, by the explosion of a cannon cracker. Capt. Kendnck, the school book man, did it. He says he always does on July 4th. It's down on the bills and "there's positively no change of dates." I arose and came down to breakfast, after filing a "kick" at the desk just 24 hours long and twice as hot, because I had not been called. But it didn't work ! Charles the pom pous call boy (40 years old registered) was called. "Oh! yez, sah ! 81 was called, sah ! Did it myself, Suah Sah ! Gentleman answered. Sah !" What could I say in the face of that ? Eat breakfast and make the most of an enforced stay of 24 hours. There was a large crowd here Satur day night when I arrived, but this session of the Teacher's Assembly died last night, and the 'corpuses" were railroaded away to-day. Only 200 people remain. And they are settling down for quiet enjoyment. The only thing of interest will be the Tobacco Association and Capt. Ken drick's fishing. This deserves special mention. Mr. E. E. Britton and the doughty Capt. were out this morning. They caught 160 pounds of fish. Britton sid so and it's so. Fish will bite for Capt. Kendrick to catch when they are not hungry. It's simply wonderful. But you can't share his luck. He will pull up fish all day two feet from where your hook is lying and you never get a nibble. Some men are that way, I have noticed. The jolly tobacco men began arriving to-night. Capt. Lockhart, Mr. G. E. Webb, handsome D. Y. Cooper, and jolly Ed. Pace are among them. Capt Pace was immedi ately surrounded by anxieais friends, all eager to pilot him to the dining room, because he declared he wouldn't open his mouth about the boundless possibilities of Wilson until he had supped. To-day, I went fishing. It was this morning. The sun shone brightly and the fish sang sweetly, I guess, for they didn't bite. Just now my hands and the back of my neck feel a trifle peculiar. It is said to be a Moreheadism, and the color is guaranteed to wear well and look a bright red for two weeks. I caught two fish. This is the truth. Dave Whichard and Walter Herbert ac companied me. They said they ! caught 40 pounds, but they edit respectively the Greenville Reflector where I was going. 1 told him. "I want you to bring me first one you catch," he said. The first one was a blackfish, just 3 inches long a nice dish to set before a Judge. That fish was triumphantly brought up to the hotel suspended from a pole carried by two stalwart men. I marched up to the office desk and espied the learned Judge cracking jokes on the front verandah, surround ed by a party of distinguished gentle men. Seizing a card I penned on it : Compliments of The Wilson Advance. "He hath done what he could." Calling a boy I sent the fish and the card out to him. The laugh which went up amply repaid me for my three burns and the Judge acknowledged the joke was on him. This afternoon I went to the surf and took my first plunge for the season. To go you get together a party, board a sharpie and a delight ful sail lands you on the island. A half mile walk puts you on the beach. You disappear in a bath house and come forth gasping. Even a man kind of gasps when he finds the winds toying around his abbreviated bath suit, and playing with his lower ex-' tremities. And them you have to marc!) down :.. ?:: in front of a bauciy ul a hundred eyes! You think a moment, look at other men's bare legs, and go bravely down. Ugh ! Great scott ! Ain't it cold ! In sheer desperation you rush madly out nd lie down. That's the best way. It's all over then and you dispert yourself as you please and ride the breakers to your heart scon tent. My persistent attempt to swal low the Atlantic ocean seemed to dis ple;ise some of the bathers, notably Whichard and Herbert, to whom I have already alluded. They believ ed I was getting more than my share and I agreed with them heartily. They were disgusted at what they termed my greediness, and so was I. But I couldn't help it to save me. The salt stuff would fill my eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and I swallowed all I could to get rid of it. That is not the correct thing to do, however, because your capacity will fail you. Mine did. When you are tired you come out and wearily struggle up to the bath house. Fresh water is at a premium, and if you get a bucket full you are a lucky man. A bath house is a very democratic institution. You know everybody and asks favors of any bodypeople whom you never saw before and probably wouldn't know if you met them again, clothed and in their right minds, as it were. The sail back to the hotel is ex hilarating, but the delicious feeling of languor which steals over you, per vading your whole nature, is likely to send you to the seclusion of your own room, "to sleep, perchance to dream." That is the way the trip ought to end. Somehow something was out of order for me, for a squall came up, the lightning flashed, the thunders rolled, the "rains descended and I was drenched through and through. But supper tasted good, all the same. I can always eat. The meals in the hotel are well-cooked and ad mirably served to-day. There was complaint last week. To-night I had the entire, undivided attention of one polite, attentive waiter. I kept him busy, too. And he did not cost me one extra cent. Tipping these waiters is not allowed, I understand. The guests do not allow it they (the waiters) say. Seriously the cuisine is admirable and the service all that I could desire. This is no paid write-up, for I walked up to the desk and paid my bill like "the common herd." And I found the clerks ready and willing, nay anxious, to do everything in their power to please me at all times. I was satisfied with the hotel. What did I do while there ? yes. Saturday night I heard Dixon lecture on "Backbone." Oh! Tom Wil- son people can imagine how much I enjoyed that. He was introduced by Mr. Josephus Daniels, who said : "I am glad Tom Dixon is not in jail. I am glad, and so are you, that he is here to-night. He is here because he has a backbone as upright as his own life and unbending as the rock of Gibralter. He will tell us some thing about it to-night." There were perhaps 300 people in the As sembly building when Mr. Dixon arose. It sounded like a great many more, because everybody greeted him with applause and cheers. What a wonderful man he is and how great is the power of his magnificent ge nius! In a few words he acknowl edged the pleasure it gave him in being at Morehead. And then I told the story of his arrest and the dismissal of the indictment against him Elsewhere The Advance pub lishes the story. He had not been afraid, because hat he said was true and he knew it. His lecture was better even than when he delivered it in Wilson. His audience was de lighted. Afterwards I went on a sail with the Goldsboro party, who kindly remembered me with an invi tation. Sunday morning (yesterday) Mr. Dixon preached in the Assembly building. It was crowded and many turned away because they could not secure seats. The Advance gives you the sermon, but it cannot give you an idea of the dramatic, impas sioned oratory with which it was de livered. He is a great man won derful, eloquent, convincing. He will bear watching, for he has a career. I am such an ardent admirer that I am afraid to give my pen free course, for fear of being called extrav agant. In the afternoon I was indebted to Mr. Walter Borden for an invitation for a sail with a congenial party. The water was just rough enough to send the spray flying over evervbody. Delightful fails to fitly express it. I shall leave riere to-morrow, un less I sleep too late again. How do you get here? Well. j there are ways and ways. The best j way is to go to Goldsboro and down j the Atlantic & North Carolina Rail ; road. The ride is a very pleasant one. The schedule is not the fastest i one in the world, but three hours from Goldsboro here is quick enough. Under Mr. Chadwick's management the road has prospered as never be fore. This summer two elegant first class coaches have been put on. They are luxuriously furnished,, and riding in them is not only pleasant it is a solid comfort. If that is not good enough and you desire to be exclu sive, a parlor observation car is at your disposal with single chairs. You can secure a seat for a small consid eration, I supposed I was not quite equal to such "splurging" riot ac customed to reclining in luxury's lap, and it was too rich for a common plebian like myself. The engine drawing this train is new and pow erful, and has been purchased undea President Chadwick's administration an administration that reflects credit upon the executive ability of the bus iness man at the head of it. The lights are low, the sounds of mirth and revelry are hushed. All around me tired people, fanned by cooling breezes, are sleeping sweetly. The water beneath my window is rippling by unceasingly, and its rest less murmur speaks in "a various language" to all xnen differently, however. To mc it suggests "life's endless toil and endeavor, while to night I long for rest." Then I re member that inaction is death that if this water stopped its endless roll ing it would become a stagnant pool, and I think that may be true of life. And the moonlight floods the scene with a glorious, mellow radiance half divine, and it is all weirdly enchant ing in its loveliness and dazzling effulgence. And I think that repre sents God's sunshine poured out upon us so abundantly, warming, cheer ing, invigorating, and sustaining life. Freely, generously, graciously, it is given, the sunshine of His smile and His loving care, watchfulness and tender mercy. Forgive me ! You see one can moralize at Morehead even. And why not? Beneath the glitter of tinsel, the blare of brilliants, the rus tle of silks, the waving plumes, the filmy lace, the brightly colored rib bons is seriousness and grave thoughts of hie's responsibilities past imagin ing. You can find it. I did. C. F. W. WILSON WINS, KASIL.Y EVER. Our Hoys Victoriously Out Shoot Gohls Ixiio's Crack Marksmen. Tuesday evening the Goldsboro Gun Club scut a delegation up here to try our Club at Blue Rock pigeons. Ten men on each side took three rounds of seven shots each. Wilson won by a score of 121 to 04. The individual scores were as follows : Goldsboro -Grainger, 15 ; Lee, 11 ; O' Daniel, 14 ; Hoffman, 7 ; Hill, 6; Dorlch, F. L., 11 ; Shannon, 5; Borden 5 ; Dortch, W. T., 7; Cald well, 13.

The 1 'shoot" was heartily enjoyed by a large crowd of spectators, es -pecially as the home men led from the beginning. The above was intended for last issu e. Ed. Tuesday afternoon our club met the Goldsboro team on their own grounds and came home victorious. Thev are loud in praise of the clever treat ment they received. The Argus yesterday says : "The contest between the Wilson and Goldsboro Gun Clubs, as previ ously announced, caine oft" yesterday afternoon on the grounds of the latter near Hermann Park. "The weather was fine for a good contest, and the traps threw the pig eons in fine shape ; but on their own hustings our boys got "downed" by the visiting team, although there is not much to brag on. The shooting was rather above the average all round, as a whole. "Every man on both sides had seven rounds, alternating, with three shots to the round, making a possi ble score of 2 1 : on this basis the fol lowing is the total score of the indi vidual members of the contesting teams : "Wilson Simms, 17 ; Walls, 11 ; White, 10; Moore, 9 ; Churchwell, 13 ; Gorham, 16 ; Branch; 16 ; Briggs, 11 ; Gardner, 16 ; Churchwell, W., 8. Total 127. "Goldsboro O'Daniel, 9 ; Hill, 16 ;-Grainger, 16 ; Borden 17; Hoff man, 14; Caldwell, 9 ; Dortch, F. L., 14; Lee, 12; Shannon, 8; Dortch, W. T., 9. Total 123."

Association Hall was crowded at the morning service yesterday many of the congregation wearing celluloid badges of the Christian Endeavor Society. The Rev. Thomas Dixon, Jr., read his usual prelude on current events, his special subject being "The Collapse of Koch and Nicoll. Previous to reading the prelude Mr. Dixon spoke of "the terrible occur rences at Homestead," 'and sharply censured Andrew Carnegie for his treatment of the steel workers. He also denounced the Pinkertons, and said that "if every man of them were taken out and hanged, the only loss to the nation would be the wear and tear ofrope." The congregation loudly applauded these remarks. Speaking of the dismissal of the indictment for libel against himself. Mr. Dixon said : "Mr. De Lancey Nicoll, the District Attorney of New York, professes to be a much holier man than the ordinary, every-day Tammany heelers, who gave him the office. Well, he is a good lawyer, a shrewd and polished young man. He knows his business too. When he gets hold of a red hot poker he drops it. On the 30th day of June, five days before the date fixed by the court for pleadings on the case, this virtuous young man sneaked into the Court x General Sessions, and in my absence and without any notice to my attorneys, dismissed the Koch-Crady-Higgins-Tamniany in dictment. He dismissed it with a left-handed endorsement that was, de signed to stab in the back the defend ant whom he had not dared to face before a jury. He had the power to dismiss it, if he liked, but he had no right in the dark to enter on a public record, under the cover of his privil ege as an attorney a false and slander ous statement. This was unmanly. It was cowardly. It was infamous.'' "He dismissed it," continued Mr. Dixon, "because he knew that every single word alleged as libellous was true : and, more, he knew the truth of them personally and that they could be established by sworn testimony on the witness stand. He knew that the indictment was obtained from a suspicious Grand Jury composed of Tammany heelers and underlings and liquor dealers, with five or six good men, whose voices were not heard. He knew that, even with such men, one Gunning S. Bedford, his assistant, deemed if necessary to go into the Grand Jury room and by personal and political solicitation secure the indictment before any evi dence was introduced. He knew that in that act Bedford had disgraced the District Attorney's office, and he did not dare try such an indictment even though he had a case. He knew that it would take more than Judge Martine's little speech to white wash the record of that Grand Jury with Higgins, Blessing, Haswell, Allen, and Trainor, and others of like ilk, who were its leading spirits, with the war paint of the inner Tammany wigwam fresh on their faces. "I am not surprised that Judge Martine tried to whitewash them. God knows they needfcd it. But would it not have been more efficient if some other man had applied the whitewash than the Judge who pre sided over the drawing 01 this re markable body of men ? Note the contrast, tor instance, between the June and July Grand Jury. Francis Higgins, the august foreman of this Grand Jury, is' a Tammany HaH heeler of the most ignorant stamp in tact, thte henchman of John J. Scan nell, the notorious murderer, who; is one of the Governing Committee ot Tammany Hall. Why was such an ignoramus made foreman over two or three of the best citizens of New , York, who were of the number ? This fellow was so stupidly ignorant that when I entered the Grand Jury room he could not repeat the simple words required to be spoken to a de fendant. " Let every preacher in New York speak his mind without fear. Tam many is already on the run. They are cowards when brought to bay. Cowards from our Mayor, a selt-con-lessed criminal who spells with dil ficulty, but naively confesses that he gave Flossie Croker $10,000 just for fun and appropriated to him, down to the underling who lives by black foail on criminals. Let no man fear their noise or bluster. "I have said that Joseph Koch stands indicted for the violation of his oath as Commissioner, and ought to be in the penitentiary. I rejieat it. And I brand him before the Mayor who re-appointed him with that fact. Against the man personally, apart from his official record, I've nothing to say. But I repeat that his eleva tion to the Chairmanship of the Ex cise Board, with $3,000 salary, is a disgrace to the city. A petition is now circulating asking Gov. r lower to remove him from office. If the Governor endorses such a petition he will much surprise me." New York Sun, July 1 ith. 1 1 iLLSMORO, N. C, June 25, 1890.
