Ever since the present man nireniout of The Standard has bad charge, it has been busy try ing to do the very best to have a paper worthy of perusal in every home in , the county but has not pressed its claims. If feels that it offers in The Weekly Standard much more than the value of the price de manded for its fifty-two visits per year. We do not propose to red uce the price of The Stand ard as that would mean to soon not issue it at all, but 'wishing to increase its circulation and recognizing that every worker is worthy of his hire, we offer to any one who will secure for us one or more new subscribers, twenty cents on each dollar paid Payment may be later in the fall if so desired by parties known to be reliable. The premium must invariable come from the collec tions. LAW AM) ORDER AT DAKIEN. We suppose the end has come of the race troubles at Darien, Gil. The affair, it seems to us, should go a good way to redeem ing the Georgians from the Sam Hose stigma. In this case Henry Delegal was charged with foul crime on a white lady. When officers went to arrest him his sun. John Delegal, killed one of the officers. The negroes hud dled together and refused to let the officers arrest the culprits. forty of the rioters were ar rested. Twenty eight only were convicted and sentenced to vari ous terms in the penitentiary. Henry Delegal was acquitted of ass'iult on the woman and J,hn Delegal, who killed the of. cer, was found guilty of mur d . but was recommended to the th mercy of the court. He was sentenced to life imprisonment. The same sentence was given Edward Delegal as an accomp lice. These negroes were at the mercy of the white people, who could have made it a bloody time, but it is evident that there was no disposition to do them injus tice. The course pursued by the ne groes was provoking enough but the straight forward course fol lowed shows them that they must be law-abiding and that being so they shall enjoy all the protec tion of the law. JlRYA" RINGS CLEAR 0 TRUSTS. In the conference on the Uses and Abuses of Trusts held last week in Chicago Hon. Wm. J. Bryan and Burke Cochrane were the central figures. Mr. Bryan seemed the lion of the occasion by a good lead. He has very strong convictions on the trust issue and stoutly maintains that they can be reached. He har monizes with the Cleveland idea 1hat they should and could be grappled with best by the indi vidual states. A charter granted by a state should not extend privileges beyond that slate ex cept by a license from the na tional government which should lay the burden on the applicant to prove that it has none of the i'.-atures of a monopoly or trust. lie declared that a monopoly in private hands is indefensible from any standpoint and is in tolerable, nor are there excep tions to the rule. Mr. I'.ryan made a masterly ef fort and fully sustained himself. Mr. Cochrane himself admitted that he agreed with vory much that the Nebraskan said. It all points to Bryan for our Demo cratic national leader in 1900. N iw I iiarlotte is fixing to bury us. Sim is figuring on a coffin fa lory.

It seems he was a momber of the church, in good standing and manifested a living faith by many good works. The getting of immense wealth is chiefly tgaiust him in the eyes of tho world. "It ia easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the king- dom of heaven" was clearly in - tended to apply to those whotrast with the court-martial pro trusted in riches, those not in- ceodings and indicates either eluded in the beatitude of "The 'that that nation means reform or Poor in Spirit." There was that it realizes the danger of nothing in the man's great further Rtr:iinim the national wealth to close the doors of para dise against him but doubtless he would have walked the road leading thereto with a quicker and more sprightly step with a less burden of wealth and wealth getting weighing hkn down. His father, we believe, advised! that his children disperse more of their wealth than le had done and avoid immense accumula tions. It leads us to fresh ad miration of ou - own Vanderbilt, who. instead of constant hoard ing and gathering more, is spreading much on the face of the earth, making beauty and productiveness where formerly there was little to give joy or comfort to man. It is a great problem to solve to get wealth; it is little less a problem to learn how to use it when gotten. DEMOCRATS GETTING READY. A meeting of the national Democratic executive committee was held in umcago, ill., on last Monday, the 18th. Prelimi nary work was begun by making Mr. G M Johnson, of Kansas, the executive head and fixing upon Chicago as the headquar ters. The following address was sent out: "The national committee of the Democratic party, in session at Chicago, to consider the work of party organization prepara tory to the campaign of 19iX), sends greeting to the Democracy of the nation with the assurance that the prospect of Democratic success next year grows brighter every day, and we have every reason for confidence as to the outcome. The great need now is party unity and thorough organ ization. The committee appeals, therefore, to our party friends in all the States, and especially States where elections are to be held this year, to put aside all local differences wherever they exist, and support tho regular party tickets earnestly and en thusiastically keeping always in view the great struggle of next year, anu remembering tnat in unity there is strength and in division weakness. Especially do we appeal to the Kentucky Democracy to give loyal support to the regular ticket in that State, headed by Mr. Goebel, and thereby make sure of a Demo cratic victory in the State and the return of Senator Blackburn to the Senate of the United States." The committee resolved to meet once every 60 days. MR ALLISON'S l'LAS. Ve hope our cotton raisers and dealers will give careful study to the article copied from the Raleigh Post from the pen of our townsman, Mr. J P Al lison. Whether or not the plan is feasible it is not ours to say and it can better be' determined after an effort is made. We do not understand what the plan in detail would have that would free it from the idea of a trust for con troling prices but that would be one of the tasks for the organi zation and further developments of the plan. It is evident that the price of cotton is depressing to most raisers. Our hope for relief has been in tho manufac ture of our cotton croplargely in the South. This, however, is very problematical. It is easy to soe that relief is needed but not so easy to see how it is to be effected. If a genius of manipulation can make it to the interest of those 1 .inters or Boilers who enter in- to tho plan without extending is the largest opening the insti equal benefits to those who stand ' tutin hati h!kl1 since the Uivil aloof, a mountain of difficulties will have been removed. It will be well enough to give tho plan duo consideration and Mr. Alii- , , i ,. .. ., sons mo edohmte ideas as to detail will be anxiously looked for, FRANCE DEALIMi GENTLY. form of government. The utmost gentleness and suavity is ex tended the accused. Ever since August 12th M Guerin has re fused to be arrested and is shut up and barricaded in the head quarters of the Anti-Somite League. The government has ' not forced an entrance and arrest evidently to soothe and heal the distracted condition of tho nation. ! This seems very much in con compact. Senator Wellington, Governor Lowndes, Mayor Malster, of Baltimore, and Gen. Felix Ag nus, a Mayland team, have waited on President Mckinley u-ith a nrntiit that, tha assicm. . ., s . Atlatip Squadron is not commensurate with the dignity of Admiral Schley and that he is not getting fair treatment from the adminis tration, also that Maryland will be lost to the Republican party if amends are not made by giving him some higher station. It seems these Marylanders are quite jealous of their heroic son It would be a pity if their over- zealousness were to become dis paraging to this worthy hero. The examination by the peni teutiary committee at Wadesboro on Monday corroborates what has already been said about the man Suminerell's inhumanity to convicts and yet this man is re tained by the Kusseil-Day combi nation. It's a pity that the Dem ocrats could not have the com plete control of penitentiary af fairs, as under such rule the penitentiary was a creditable in stitution but has ever since been a shame ana a burden to the State. . The Morning Post contains a glowing article favoring a soap factory for that city. It looks surprising that the business of the City of Oaks has not been lubricated w ith a soap factory long ago from the reckoning of the material to be had and the great need of the soap. A Winston-Salem dispatch of the 19th says a second effort has been made to establish the Dan ville tobacco warehouse combine and has signally failed. It is now considered dead. They say corporations have no souls so we can gloat ovor its death with out serious reflections. Greensboro has a town tax of $3.00 on boot-blacks. This will reduce the number and shut off some of the nuisance, "Shine," "Shine Sir." The imps, too, have formed a combine and now charge 10 cents. If France Doesn't want Drey fus there are plenty of doors open to him beside a great big oue in America. The Losses of the Eastern Storm. The horrors of our recent eastern storm grew in magnitude with their repitition and doubt loss the reports went beyond the reality. The following seems a summing up since facts have been gathered: Twenty-five lives were lost. The greater part of these were fishermen drowned at Swan Island. The wind blew at the" rate of 140 miles an hour, but only in spurts. While many of the marsh ponies were drowned a great many escaped, and the same was the case as to cattle. Tho greatest loss of all was to the crops on the main land. It is said this amounted to half a million dollors. The rain fall was greatest at Hateras, 8 inches in 48 hours. Seven Riile on One Ticket A iamiiy comprising seven persons left Scranton, Ponn., the other day, the whole party trveling on one full fare railroad ticket.

The Supply Lacking This Year. It looks as if we will not have the amount of cotton on our streets each day as the previous years. At this time heretofore our streets for a few hours would be crowded with the wagons, but such has not been the case this year. On last Friday our score did reach 101, and on Saturday 100 bales were weighed, but one year ago from last Saturday 245 bales were sold. Besides the big decrease in the crop this year numbers of farmers are holding back their supply hoping that a better price wilL be paid later. Called to Raleigh to a Meeting. Mr. A B Young was called to Raleigh Monday night by a tele gram. He is chairman of the executive committee of the Direc tors of the State Prison and was wanted there to take part in the important matters before them. One thing to be transacted at the meeting ia the purchasing of the Caledonia farms for working of convicts. Several other matters of importance are to be brought up. A Beautiful Entrance to be Built. Seven wagon loads of granite were brought from Rowan county Tuesday for the new entrance to be built at St. James Lutheran church, which place was changed very much when the street was cut down. It is at present very un handy and dangerous and though a good amount of expense is at tached, an entrance will soon be built there that will add much to the beauty of the place there about and give easy and con venient access to the church. The plans have been submitted by Architect Hook, of Charlotte. To Make Concord Their Home. As soon as suitable arrange ments can be made about houses two of our farmers with their families will move to Concord. The one is Mr. and Mrs. Monroe Gillon and the other is Esq. S R Andrew and family, of the Pop lar Tent neighborhood. v Such citizens as these are always wel come to our town with their families. - Some If Ofrroes Gave False Alarm. beverai persons along on Spring street plainly heard an alarm Tuesday night some time after 11 o'clock over at the col ored Baptist church. The bell was rung and several persons were heard hollering "fire." .It was a false alarm and seems to have been a crowd of colored people trying to get a little bit gay.

Race Trouble In the North. A dispatch, of the 18th from Carterville, 111., gives an account that shades the South for hatred and domineering over the negro. It says : "Carterville was the scene of a bloody riot about noon Sunday, in which six negroes were in stantly killed and one fatally wounded, while two others re ceived slight wounds. Trouble has been brewing since the milita was recalled by Governor Tanner last Monday. The white miners of this place have refusod to allow the negro miners to come into town, al ways meeting them and ordering them back. Yesterday, how ever, thirleo i negroes, all armed, marched into town, going to the Illinois Central dopot, where they exchanged a few words with tho white miners there. Then the negroes pulled their pistols and opened fire on the whites, who at once returned the fire. A running fight was kept up. The negroes scattered, some being closely followed by the whites up the main street, while the remainder fled down the railroad tracks. Here the execution was done, all who went through town escaping. After the fight was over four dead bodies were picked up, and another mortally wounded. They were taken to the City Hall, where the wounded man was at tended to, and an inquest held over the dead ones, Trouble has existed here off and on for over a year, but no fatalities occurred until June 30, when a passongor train on the Illinois Central Railroad was flred into, and one negro woman was killed. Those negroes were on their way to the mines, hav ing come from Pana. A short time afterwards a pitched battle ensued between the union and non-union forces, during which time the dwellings occupied by the non-union negroes were burned. Several arrests were made, and the accused aro in jail at Marion awaiting trial on the charge of murder." Tho mob gathered fury as it continued and came near raiding the negro settlement to continue theijbloody work and probably annihilate the negroes, - Governor Tannor was groatly wrought up and by roquost sont a military force to restore order. He appealed to all good citizens of the town and community to aid in ridding it of the stain of murder by helping to bring tho guilty to justice Both Leg Cut OA.

Methinks of all things to mortals here given A voico of such power is likost to heaven. Clark Sheffield. Atlanta, Ga. Cargo of Horses Thrown Overboard. The following distressing story for those fond of the equine family is told by the Philadel phia Record : "Not long ago a large ship ment of h or sos left New York for Europe on a large ship, which had a light cargo. The ship's company, .fearing Euro pean legislation adverse to the importation of American live stock, were not disposed to incur much expense in the business, and the stalls to accommodate the horses were put in of extem porized sort. About mid-ocean the steering gear broke and the ship fell off in the trough of the sea. Being light she tossed about very violently, and the horses, being thrown against their poorly constructed stalls, broke them down faster than they could be repaired. In a few days all the stalls were demol ished, and their splintered stanchions and sideboards, with projecting spikes, were mixed up into a moving mass of half dead, killed and mutilated bodies of the horseB, all shifting with every toss of the ship. Finally the whole quivering and putre fying mass settled on one side and would have caused tho ship to founder had not the crew by herculean efforts managed to throw the horses overboard, killing a few that gave trouble. All were lost t A Teacher's Value to the Public. "What tho teacher is counts for much more than what she knows. A love of children, un limited tact and infinite patience are the necessary endowments." "Of course, the ability to teach implies tho possession of an edu cation, though no amount of ed ucation alone carj make a good toaeher. While all teachers must know more than they teach, the power to impart to others is tho important matter and the one in which tact or ingenuity is abso lutely the prime requisite. More over, she should bo personally a social, intellectual and moral force in the community, The physician aud the clergyman have immense opportunities for this uplifting of humanity, yet their advantages are small when compared with those of the teach er, which are practically unlim ited. Encouragement and satis faction in this field of labor never can be dependent upon results, for it ii seldom that the teacher is permitted to know what the years of maturity owe to faithful core of the youthful days. The teacher's time is always one of ieed sowing, never of harvest." Carolina B Row. Should Re Held In Check. Very few persons have any idea of tho immensity of tho Southern lumber trade. A tab ulated statement of tho sales of Southern mills, principally yel low pine, during the past fiscal year amounts to the almost in conceivable quantity of 1,331, 000,000 foot, valuod at more than twenty-five million dollars. Prices are advancing as the de mand increases, and lumber easy of access becomes scarce. The extravagant destruction of our valuable timber land should bo prevented by law. Windors Ledger.

One of his patents was a woman of 84, whose right arm and right side of the nock had been paralyzed for two years and a half as a resultit was supposed, of a fall and broken arm, and ho filled several of her teeth and extracted tho much-decayed third molar or wisdom tooth of the rightside.

Superintendent of Public In struction Mobane has sont a reply to Y E Smith of Durham, who wrote asking whether a "school day" of six hours in cluded the "recesses." In his reply the superintendent informs the enquirer that the law means that the teachers in public schools shall do six hours of work, by teaching. That if the six hours should be construed to include the recesses, then we might in some schools have four hours of school and work on part of teachers and two hours of recess, etc. There must be six hours of work put in by teachers in the public schools, the superintendent concludes. His EstlimiU' of the Local Taper. Senator Davis, of Illinois, is reported us saying: "Each year every local newspaper gives from 500 to $5,000 in free linos for the benefit of the community in which it is printed. No other agency can nor will do this. The editor in proportion to his means does more for his town than any other man, and in all fairness he ought to bo supported, not bo cause you like or admire his: writings, but because a local newspaper is tho best advertise ment a community can have. It may not be crowded with great thoughts, but financially it is more of a benefit than a teacher or a preacher." Venezuelan Trouble. Venezuela is in quite a per turbed condition.

I The Greensboro Telegram tells a pretty little story and puts you on the lookout for an interesting-' ' little exhibit at the coming State Fair.- There was a house at Hillsboro built before the Revolutionary war. Some time ago a Mr. Coley was employed to tear down the building. Near the comb of the roof he found the mummies of a cat and rat. Evidently the rat had retreated into a place so small that the cat could just roach it with one paw and one tooth. From this wedged condition the cat could not retreat and the rat was effectually shut in. They became mummified and the specimen may be more than a hundred years old. Mr. Cooly proposes to have the exhibit at the fair. Have an eye to it. Eagle Grapples a 7-Year-OId Boy. A Hartford, Conn., dispatch of the 12th says an eagle swooped down on a seven-year-old boy weighing about 45 pounds. It raised him off the ground but he , had been playing driving the team with two sisters. He held on to the lines. The eagle could not raise tho three and they all fought heroically till the bird re linquished his prey. Tho boy was somewhat torn by the talons. Hunters sought the monster but could not find him.
