BgV. BAILUt CADE DEAD. ■
(W T. Boot In Croeasboro News)
Tho death of Bee. Bay)as Cade In
Philadelphia yesterday afternoon not
anly removes from tho pal pit a p*c
tarmMM character and a superlative
intellect, but It naturally luiaaa a
Mutisa as to what will be deoo to
ward the dovelopmeeit of tho Coda
typesetting machine which Ws hem
advertised many years and appeared
to ho going well as a stock eompany.
The machine has set beau manufac
tured and sold, hut Mr. Cade had bscu
La the market long onough to got al
most the required amount of stack.
Ho wa« being backed by some mloudld
men in tho west. Naturally it fa fear
ed here that hfa death will affect tho
future of the machine which ho has
tried so long to perfect.
Mr. Cade wai a Confederate soldier,
was many years a school teacher, rala
fater In the Baptist church and was
secretary to Governor Russell. Ha
Mors recently the Inventor had taka*
active pastors boa and hfa proarUng
was such aa gave him unique position
in tho Baptist denomination. Ho serv
ed Wake Forest two summers ago and
as a collage' preacher eras profoundly
interesting.
Mr. Cade was one of the few mem
bers of the fusion regime who voted
the Republican state ticket and tho
national Democratic. Ho sever went
back on Bryan or him philosophy. Tho
nearest a disagreement with tho Ne
braskan was on tho war, Mr. Cade
being intensely pro-ally and a believer
in the war before It was declared.
Germany was an anachronism to him
and tho war was wholly a rstigtoua
ana
It fa understood that tho body will
ho brought to Loufakurg. where ho
Ptmehpd many rears, and the burial
will take place Monday. Ho leaves a
large faatily.
