A'S OFFICIAL VOTE 1
fmn the Standard
prints the official vote of Cabarma
county. The other appearance was
just the reported vote.
- This is official and therefore re
liable. It is a study for all ; and es
pecially to the nearlj 400 Democrats
in the county who failed to get to
the polls on election day.
Preserve this, it is a record :;r,d it
will do good for each Democrat to
look over it occasionally, and there-
" bear in mind that one's country
must be thought of.
DIVIDING THE SPOILS.
In another column, we reproduce
a special thatjjwas sent the Charlotte
Observer.
It tells how the boses have met
and began arrargements to divide
the spoils. Until this is done, the
representatives of the bosses will net
know how to cast their vo'.cs.
Marion Butler, it is conceded, will
get Ransom's place, the long term;
those to get the Vance vacancy, are
not jet known. The magic hand of
Mr. Butler will be seen in this
whoever he favors will be the one.
He is to be a Republican without
donbt.
The Standard is not a mini-reader
bat it feelj certain tnat Mr. flilamai:
and Mr. Moody have net yet decided
(?) whom they will support to fill
the vacancy caused by the death of
Senator Ransom, Of course they
will vote for Mr. Butler, but as yet
they are undecided about the other
man.
This is right. They should otey
the dictates of the agency that gave
them this nev birth.

ThiB is ' the time " of year that
several hundred over the State are
hustling to get up their bonds. A
new set of henchmen, so to speak,
will be drawn oa t'lis year.
Another issue of bonds is to be
made, says the anti-admiais'ra'ion
papers. The Republicans eaddied
on obligations that must be met.

to the report that Congressman

Three Chinamen were Recently ar
rested in New York and ordered to
be deported. It seem3 that they de
Eertedfrom the Chinese " rmy and
came to this country, where they
have Buccreded in accumulating a
considerable sum of money.
Now, the penalty for desertion in
China is dearly but these three
prisoners are not at all alarmed.
They claim that under the laws of
China a mac of means is allowed to
hire somebody to be executed in his
place. '.
This proxy plan of executing a
criminal is Morked in this waj:
When a well-to-do man is condemn
ed to death he hunts up a poor devil
of a coolie and makes a bargain with
him. The substitute is allowed his
liberty until the day of execution,
and his employer has him watched
so that he cannot escape, for if the
coolie should net turn up at the ap
pointed time the principal would
have to suffer the penalty.
Of course this system is very con
venient for rich criminals, andthe
poverty-stricken wretches who sell
their lives seem to be perfectly satis
Bed. These people have no sense of
the yalue of human life, and a poor
man thinks that he has made a good
trade when be binds himself to die
for another man, and receives enough
cash in hand to enable him to enjoy
a frolic for a few weeks. A coolie
who hso sold himself in this man
ner buys fine clothes and plunges
into all the dissipa ions that he is
able to pay for. On the day of his
execution he presents himself with
a smiling face and leaps into etei-
nity, congratulating himself npon
having tasted all the sweets of good
fortune and happiness at the close
of his career.
If the Chinese with their disre
gard of death ever become a well
disciplined and warlike nation they
will make splendid soldiers. All
hat handicaps them now is their
backward civilization. Atlanta

Last night at 10 o'clock there was
a cosy quartette seated around the
'hospitable stcve cf Mr. W H Worth,
who a few days ago was elected
Treasurer of this Siate vice Samuel
McDowell Tate.
Of course, I went first to the Park
Hutel to find the Wizard of Wayne
but he simply dropped by there for
a few moments, having inquired
whether any of his friends had
Culled; then he went cut into the
darkness, not even tne clerk knew
where,
But Marion knows a good thing
when he sees it, Ue let t word at
the Park that he would abide there
last night, but would turn up in the
morning
It wa3 a cold foggy iigty, not
that sea fogginess that pats bloom
on women's cheeks, but ikuX foggi
nes3 that puts phneucionia under
the skins of men.
"Is Mr, Butler here tonight?"
"Ye3, sir."
"Can I see him
I went in.
And there sat the cosy quartette.
Mr. Worth, of course, the host,
Mr. Barnes, Mr. Batler; the other
gentleman's name I could rot learn
"Mr. Butler, something has trans
pired within tbe last few days that
somehow or other has made you an
important figure. Therefore, you
will excu
presently,
"I thought that all the importance
that belonged to ne eculd be dated
beiere the election
And that is jutt where Mr. Butler
knew that he wa3 wrong, as was
sparsely indicated by his wi l-o'-the-
wisp smile.
Mr. Butler wa3 here evidently in
regard to the ducussion of tbe
division of spoils, and secondarily as
to tbe bonds, which would be forth
coming from several county officers,
"Mr. Butler, I hear Loge Harris is
traning his guns for tbe Railroad
Commission ?"
"What, for Mason's place ?"
"Yes,' sir."
One time that I raw you, you
seemed to hive Milikr.:i on the brain,
and now joa seeni to have Logan on
the brain. I Lrgsn to think there
was something the matter about
Milikan, and I CLquired around; now
you propose Mr. Harris for the
Railroad Commission.
"Well sir, I had an undefined
idea that Loge was somewhat an of
important factor in the shaping of
the Fusion idea in the Republican
Convention.
Thu3 it seems that poor Loge is
going to be left out in the cold,
though in Borne respects, perbap?, he
is an able man as Butler.
"Mr. Batler, was it 47,000 votes
that vou delivered this time, or ia
that the proper word." ,-
"You must get on to our vernacu
lar," said the Wizard laughingly.
"Well, wnat was the figure ?"
"Oyer 80.000."
"And the Republicans ?"'
"Ihen you seem to be entitled to
very nearly half the spoils?"
"Mr. Butler, I hear that the Re
publicans having obtained your
votes are now ijoing in for the swag ?
Is that true ?"
"I have heard some such thing,
and have inquired about it, and
some have hinted at that"
"From whom did you hear it, Mr.
Butler ?"
Hen. Mr. Butler sailed off into ana
other one of his sarcastic Bailies of
which he is master.
But Mr. Butler, about your con
ference with Holton in Greensboro,
was there any Equabble oytr the
spoils?
"None.
"It wa3 so stated in a State paper,
"That was a fake, and the writer
of the article never saw either of ns
before writing it. ,
"Will there be any attempt by
Treasurerselect Knight to get bond
through. a guarantee company,
"I don't know.
"Will the law of 1S93 forbid him
froti doing so?
"I don't think so."
"Mr. Butler haven't you anything
to say ; haven't you any news ; will
you persist in playing the Mabore
racket, and trying to be mysterious?
"No, no, I will have some news in
a few days which I will give toyoa."
"Will you give it to me first ?"
"I believe I will."
Mr. Batler looked his best last
night : -
His men are going to have a tight
fit getting their bonds here, not be
cause they are not good men, but be
cause their bonds are good amounts
There was some talk in town yes
terday that Mr. R H Battle was try
ing to get bondsmen for Knight.
Thinking that this might do Mr.
Battle an injustice I asked him the
question direct.
Said Mr, Battle: "It is not true;
I shouldn't ask bonds for anybody ;
I should much hesitate to ask them
for myself."
The Wizard came oyer from Golds
boro last night, and will return this
morning. His movements show
that neither Holton nor anybody
else is going to beat him getting
there first with the most men, in
other words that he is going to die
tate all the offices and all the men.
And he knows it.
And they know i-.
And he deserves it.
,For Marion Butler is a master
and the master of this deal, with
masculine silence mixed up with
feminine Intuition. Raleigh Ofe
