In each of these offers, however, a small fee is Invariably charged.

It was . further resolved tht should Butler call any extra conventions that he should be decapitated. On Sunday last, the 121st birthday of the Republic, was commenced one of the most extensive strikes known.

The Maine 'Populists are making, considerable fuss over the "middle-ot the-road" busi ness. " A glance at the main election returns shows that for all practical purposes the Maine Populists may as well be in the middle of. the ocean. Franklin Times. Mark Twain "has declined to receive the New York Her ald's fund for his relief and, consequently, subscriptions to that fund will be discontinued. Mark prefers to fight it out to the bitter end by himself, and the manliness of the deter mination cannot be questioned. 'to., "twist the Lion's tail" seems to.be the accepted idea of the day. The present ad ministration is following out the policy of the last, in regard to England.. According to late advices Mr. Sherman has giv en the English Ministry a clear intimation that we will not stand anything short of abso lute good .faith in the matter of the seal fisheries. That "It takes a thief to catch a thief," has long been accepted as a truism.- The 'brilliant (?) editor of the Times has laid the foundation .for another, vh6n he refers us to two crazy negroes for , ah interpretation of one of v his editorials. - It may reasonable be expected that among the first maxims t6 be adopted in the 20th century will be "It takes a fool to read a fool." The State Treasurer has decided that the' penalty for non-payment of taxes" applies all taxes. So if any citizen 'Vilson fails to pay his poll -operty tax by the next f court he will be liable -nertt, "fine and impris This law, be it reV ;s av creation of the "reform" legis- . , "ed it will work many of our labor. This action has been taken after a deliberate con sideration of all the attending conditions. We irust that am pie provision, has been made for the. wives and children of the strikers. According to the New York Tribune they are running the book agent out of Nashville, and no wonder. This is the oration of one of them cut short, naturally enough, by his explanation : "Now, ladies and gentlemen, be fore the picnic concludes J want to sell every oneVfyou a copy of the "Life of Pocahuntas." She was an Injun girl, Poky v was -they called her vPoky for hort but she wasn't the kind that went round peddling baskets and blow guns. Not frequently. She stayed at home playing croquet in the front yard, or went to the Ladies' Aid Socie ty and; didnt take no copperas off o' nobody.' The celebrated John Smith came travelling through those parts canvassing for a family paper, but Poky wouldn't let her father raise a club." : of it, but borrow it from one year's end to another from better men than themselves." ' .From our own experience, we are prepared to endorse as a chunk of solid truth the statement of our con temporary that "those people who curse this paper most generously are persons who never subscribe for it nor buy'a copy." Fortunately, the animus of this class is frequently so apparent that the purpose to injure the paper lalls fUt or proves a bodm erang and rebounds upon the source of abuse. , - It is much the habit, of supercil ious deadbeats to 'turn up their noses at the State papers and wonder why fnr- thp best analvsis North Carolina cannot have great pa . J I . r . i ur. npK snrh as ntner Elates nave. . vv c ' . , of the following squib (clipped from the editorial columns of our esteemed contemporary, The Times : ; "The lather of Charlie Ross, the TiiE latest and most start ling murder case, that of Wil liam Guldensuppe, of N, Y., has not only attracted the at tention of the police and the reading, public, but has started afresh the, antagonism between the World and Journal. Both papers are expending enor mous sums of money, not so much to bring the criminals to justice, but more particularly to establish their theory and discredit all others. As a re sult we may safely expect that -when it comes to, a trial there will hardly be found, in New York, twelve "men who have not already decided in their own minds who the guilty ones are. As a consequence the State will beput to an unusual expense to find a' jury at all, and when found it will be made up of the most undesira ble material. The probabili ties are that no conviction will ever follow. There is more Catarrh in this section "of the country than air other diseases put together, Jand until, the last few years, was. supposed to be incurable. For a great many years, doctors pro nounced it -a Ipcal disease, and - pre scribed local remedies, and by, con stantly failing .to cure with local treat ment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitu tional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,' Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts direct ly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer ico for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address, - .F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, O: ISold'by Druggists, 75c. i in Philadelphia, is dead. occurred more than 23'years ago avnd yet no trace ol 'him has been found." For the second, best analy sis we will send the Advance one year to any required ad dress. ' . The object of this cbntest is to give ' Some of 011 young friends, in .whose minds the rules of grammar are still fresh, an opportunity ' to put to ' practical use a small portion of their recently ac quired knowledge. The points to be settled are these : W as it twenty three years ago that "the father of Charlie Ross died?" or was it twenty-three years ago "that Charlie Ross was stolen?" And again, does the writer .in tend to imply that the father of Charlie Ross died twenty: three years ago "and yet no trace of him has been found?" or does, he simply mean that poor Charlie Ross, who disap peared twenty-three years ago is still missing. Remember the prizes in this contest are to be awarded to the parties sending in the best and second best technical aralysis and there will be no ftp or other cost attached. Competent judges will be called in to. pass upon the mer its of the papers. Contest closes Tuesday,' July 9th, '97. Sound Sense. have no words to waste on the dead- beats, but to honest men who pay for this paper we wish to say that North Carolina will never have a. great paper 'until subscribers cease lehdirig such ' as we already have. This Will bring the ' sponges to terms and they will, perforce become news paper subscribers and this will help them too, for they will then become more self-respecting and better cit izens." .

' This practice sometimes works two ways against the paper. Some" who borrow would subscribe if they couldn't borrow, and once in a while a paying subscriber," one who appre ciates the paper and is really anxious to have it in his home, becomes so worn out and disgusted with the borrowing habit that he stops taking it himself in order to get rici of the borrower. The Observer evidently thinks the confirmed borrower a hard nut, lor it says it "despairs - of its ability to say anything which will pierce the hide of the newspaper borrower and it has no appeal in the matter except to its subscribers," and adds : " "The good will of a personwho will persistently beat upon you is hardly ,vorth the having, and the man who subscribes arid pays for a newspaper, like a man, ought not to hesitate to .deny to' anybody the right to read his paper before he and his family doN, nor hesitate to tear it up wheri they have finished with it.
