What is the matter with Mr. An drew Carnegie's employes in Penn sylvania? I I j It seems that while he is writing books showing the beauties of a protective tariff to the workingman, and going around to banquets mak ing speeches on the same inspiring subject, to say nothing of the fact that, he ij making a million dollars a year on his protected steel mills, his laborers are striking against his 1 proposal to lengthen the . hours : of work from eight to twelve, and to make two gangs do what three have been doing. j I i Not only is this the case, but these j same 'highly paid" working men of Mf . Carnegie's are organizing free trade clubs not reform clubs, but out and out free trade' clubs. Their free trade club at Braddock, Pa., already numbers one hundred of Mr. Carnegie's employes, and now here j is a dispatch.' from the same place that a call is out signed by a large ! number of the Carnegie men for a free trade demonstration, the oall saying, among other things j of similar import, that "the signers are no longer willing to support a trust robber system that inures wholly! to the advantage of the capitalist." Tbe Death of Boicoe ConKUng; J N. Y. World. t The imperious spirit that nothing save death could bend is at last laid low. Boscoe Conkling is no more. The dead statesman and lawyer was a natural leader among men. Brilliant in intellect, dominating in will, intense in his convictions, elo quent in speech, tte soul of honor, a generous friend and open foe, nature ordained hid to serve at the front in whatever sphere of action he was placed. Roscoe Conkling will be honored and remembered for two traits in his character: his intellect ual independence and his ( inherent integrity. More conspicuously than almost any other politician of his time, he was free from any taint of demagogy or any form of dishonesty or insincerity. He had not only the courage of his convictions, but that rarer quality among publio men, the courage of his contempt, j He hated hypocrisy, lie despised duplicity,! ha scorned baseness and did not fear to show it. He would not stoop even to conquer. ! "'.'') ''j In his death law, politics and ora tory lose one of their most brilliant chiefs, and New York State her most gifted and remarkable child of gen ius. ! He was the proudest, ablest and most intrepid man the State ever produced, and he will live in the his tory of both State and Nation. - sb-b- Roaeoa Conkling. ;j - Washington Poet, Dem. RoBCoe Conkling possessed ele ments of real greatness, intellectually and morally, and, although he did not impress himself as'stronglv as m'any other statesmen on the history of his time, he has left a good record that of one who acted np to a lofty standard of honor on all occasions, and served his country with absolute fidelity. There was no other publio man of his generation whose charac ter and habits were farther removed from the commonplace than his. To strangers, or to persons whom he did not like, he was proud, cold, forbid ding; to his friends, or those whom he desired to make bis ! friends, he was approachable, genial, kindly, He was oalled a vain man, yet those who talked of his. vanity could not deny that he was a giant in debate on such great occasions as furnish the most exacting tests of intellectual calibre. He was too prOud to stoop to mean ness or to employ any of the arts of tricksters. He won his triumphs honorably and bore his defeats grand ly. His conception of What a Sena tor should be was a lofty ideal, and he faithfully strove to live up to it. aprsme Conrt. Raleigh News-Observer. f - Court met yesterday morning at 11-o'clock.' ; " .

Stedman is in town looking as hopeful and handsome as if he en joyed the exoitement of a contest. He is one of those active, restless, tireless workers to whom idleness is a punishment. If he gets the nomi nation for Governor it will be no fault of his if he is not elected by a large majority. Once in the chair, he would make things i partake of his nervous foroe and would make his administration memorable. His re cord as a soldier is, as you know, superb. At Bristow. Station his con duct won the admiration of his com mand. He is a Democrat of the North Carolina persuasion, and has served bis party in subordinate and laborious capacities, but always well and always without tbe hope of other reward than any honest and ambi tious Democrat has a right to aspire to. ! Of course Judge Fowle will re ceive the vote of this immediate seo tion; it is proper that he, should, but everybody will understand the en thusiasm of Stedman's following. . Chatham Record.! Mb. Editor : Permit me to give a few reasons why Chatham county should casts its vote in the State Convention for Stedman for Gover nor. First, because I believe he can command more votes than any other candidate. He is absolutely free from any tarnish upon his publio re cord. He is moral, though without pretentions, to great piety. He is not an exponent of any ideas which would weaken us. not a representa tive prohibitionist, though a temper ate man and not identified with stock laws. On the other hand he is in great harmony with the party on the internal revenue question, hav ing gone to Washington j more than once in the interest of its abolition, at bis own expense,- and so far as I know, is the only democratic candi date for the nomination ; who is indi vidually identified with the peoples'; view on this subject. Unless we nominate a man who is known to be opposed to the internal revenue we shall surely lose Chatham. j 1 Columbus Record. ! Judge Clark has withdrawn from the gubernatorial race. What in-; duoed tbe Judge to withdraw we do not know; His prospects were fa vorable. He had many warm friends, and supporters in nearly all sections of the State, and who. no doubt, will . ..i.i c v :.t. J l regret w iearu ux ; mo wimuiawai. But perhaps the Judge is looking forward to a bench of eupremer dig nity than that which he now occu pies: a bench that will be congenial with his learning, and extend to him a warm and hearty welcome, if he should be fortunate enough to ob-j tain the proper pass. Whatever po sition he may be placed in he has our best wishes for success, lhe con test for Governor ought now to be closed. The factions that are now, and have been, urging other candi dates forward ought to conjoin, and with one great voice sound out the name of Stedman so loud that fu ture generations may catch up the echo on its return and gladly praise their forefathers for their considera tion and judgment in this matter. Supreme court Decision. Raleigh NewsObserver. McNeill vs. Hodges. Held, That actions are to be tried in the counties where they are pend- ing,and that orders touching a report of a referee forms no exception to this rule. By consent such a report may be considered out of tbe county where the action is pending, other wise not. i The statute that provides for the review of such, a report by the judge out of term must j be construed to mean nevertheless that the authority is to be exercised in the county. By special provisions injunction orders, fcc, can be heard outside the county where tbe case is pending. I Clement vs. Foster. Appeals do not lie trom orders or judgments disposing of fragmentary parts of actions, but exceptions must be taken to await the final determi nation of the issues, bo that the whole case can be heard on appeal together. Held, That where the plaintiff moved for judgment as if on demur rer to sufficiency of tbe answer which being refused, he appealed,the appeal is premature. lhe issue raised by the pleadings should have been tried. j; 1 1 Garrison vs. Cox. '.. i 'Special proceedings for partition, for dower and to sell land to make assets are in their nature distinct and cannot be oombined in one proceed j Where, nowever, a special proceed ing for partition and an application for dower was brought, and it ap pears that the administrator proposes to hie proceedings to make real estate assets, a stay of proceedings as to partition should be granted so as to permit a sale under the most advantageous circumstances. State vs. Hargrove. j ! Held, A talis juror must have the same qualifications as a regular juror and besides be a freeholder. V If he has paid such taxes as the law requires of a regular juror, he is eligible as to that.) Where a regular juror must have been regularly selected on tbe first Monday . in September, 1887, he must have paid his taxes for the fiscal year 1886.

Charlotte Chronicle. God's own people are distinguished by one invariable characteristic, iney -cry unto Him day and nieht." Christian ex perience is proverbially various. Sunshine and shadow prevail in endless proportions. But one thine is never wanting to ine con sciousness of the pious mind tbe presence of the spiritual enemies, ine unnsuan knows with absolute certainty that "the friendship of the : world is enmity with God." Prayer is. i therefore, his "vital breath." And this habitual prayer is not a mere form, but an earnest try for deliver ance out of the hand of the enemy. A sense of conflict is manifested by every murmur of supplication, and we can no more conceive of a pious life without struggle than of a river without a current. -Richmond Advocate -The unity of feeling among Christians that has developed is not to be counied among the least of the blessings growing out of these meetings; unity that not only embraces all the cooperating de nominations, but extends over and beyond them to others.
