The Senate's action in recogniz
ing Cuban insurgent creates a pro
found impression in Europe. The
newspapers declare the United
States has no right to meddle in
the affair.
Things are assuming a decidedly
serious aspact. If we have war
with Spair, this scribe will not be
surprised in tho least. That is a
troublesome people and they have
"blood in tho eye." But our gov
ernment is able to wipe out Spain
cany enough.
Tux Nkws declares its adhesion
to the Democratic party of the
United States, and pledges its sup
port to the action of the National
Democratic convention to be held
at Chicago on July 7th. We de
clare our purpose to subordinate our
Individual preference for candidates
to tho harmony and success of the
Democratic paity, and we recom
mend to the Democrats of the State
to forego, in cases where it can be
done, any expression as to candi
dates, State or County, until the
National Democratic convention
lias declared the principles of the
party on all questions within its
jurisdiction.
A dispatch of the 2nd inst., from
Barcelona, Spain, bays : "The fever
of indignation and hate against the
United States which eooms to have
taken possession of the hearts of all
Spain over the action of the United
States Senato in recognizing the pro
visional government of Cuba as
belligerents, and in calling upon
President Cleveland to uue his good
offices with Spain and secure the
independence ot Cuba, culminated
in violent scenes here yesterday, and
an attack upon the United States
consulate. The trouble did not
arise out of the spontaneous forma
tion ot the mob which did the vio
lence, bnt was the outcome of a
public meeting, which had been in
fluenced by fervid speeches."
The lUlcigb News and Observer
says: Never before, unless it was
in the period immediately preceding
the war.has there Wen such peculiar
political conditions as now exist in
this country. It is certainly true
that nothing like it has been known
to the voters of this generation.
We are in an element of uncertain
ty and change, of restlessness and
agitation, of loote political ties and
strange polit'cal combinations.
Parties find themselves so hopeless
ly divided as to make action npon
important natters almost impos
sible. For the first time in its his
tory, the liouse voted down an
appropriation bill framed by the
party having large majority. The
Senate and House are div ided upon
tariff and money ; and the bond bill
and the tariff bill, which Speaker
Ileed rushed through the House,
are both "as dead as Julius Caesar,"
to quoto the remark of a distin
gnished Republican Senator. .No
legislation touching the questions
of paramount importance is possible
with the sharp division between
the two faction! of the Republican
The first presidential veto of this
session of Congress was over-rWden
by the House last Saturday by a
rote of 199 to 33, 122 more than
the requisite constitutional two
thirds. All the Republicans and
22 DomocraU voted fur the bill
while the votes to sustain the Presi
dent were all by Democrats. The
bill authorizes the governor aod
local officers of Arizona to lease the
educational lands of the Territory
for tcboJ purpose. The Presi
dent objection to tbe bill was that
it did not give tbe Secretary of the
Interior power to disapprove the
leases and did not throw proper j
safe gurd about the tira'-ers on the
lai-i. The statement wis made
on the fioor that the bill was identi
cal with similar bill ped by the
but Congress rt'atiLg to Oklahoma

Secretary of the Interior and that

of the Confederate States. Mr.
Davis will lie pleasantly remem
bered by many of our citizens, as
he spent a few weoks here several
years ago, when in search of health
for his invalid wife, and who died
a bhort time after reaching here.
Mr. Davis never forgot tho kind
ness ot our people at that time, and
tho laet time I mot him in Wil

tho kind attention in tho hour o! his
sore affliction.
In the sudden death of thegallant

It was my pleasure to have known

bold fighter ha always struck
straight from the shoulder. lie
was a tower of strength in his coun
ty and section. As a leader, he
hai few equals ; as a public speaker,
he could hold and sway an audience
as few men could. He was a gallant
oflicer in the Third N. C. Cavalry
and wss wounded, and promoted
for inetitious couduct on tho field
of battle in 18CG. He was elected
to the lower house of tho General
Assembly ot North Carolina and in
177 was elected to the Senate of
North Carolina from New Hanover
and Uruntwick, before tin1 county
of Pender was formed. In 1 884
he was elected as a presidential
elector on the Cleveland ticket.
In 1880 he was elected a member
of the lower hone of the 50th Con
greas and in 1888 a member of the
51st Congress from tho Third Dis
trict, and served with maiked abil
ity. He was Rn uiiterrilie 1 Demo

public calamity. He will be sadly
mit-sed in the councils of his party.
To his sorrowing family by whom
he will be most missed, I tinder my
deepest sympathy.

Butler-Pritchard Rucus,
The Charlotte Observer ot to-day
gives additional particulars, discov
ered by its Washington correspon
dent, regarding the "split" between
Senators Butler and I ritcliard :
The refusal of Sent tor Bdtler to
keep his alleged pledges to Senator
Pritchard and Major Grant, and tho
swearing in of I'opnliot James 15.
Lloyd as a special employe to look
after the Uopulict Senators, had so
ii.furiated "the other en 1 of the
combination" that it is seriously
feared I will be proved a bad
prophet in prophecying ultimate
narmony among the late (tisionists.
Today I have had interviews with
a number of the latter. The I.pu
lifts appear to be serene. Mr. Suttle
is not unduly excited, for both the
man who receivcth something end
the man w ho cxpecteth nc thing are
"blessed." The language of some
of the Republican Congri teiiieri is
so unparliamentary it cat.not fi'id
admittance in these proceedings. I
will merely say that the following
statement is chimed oy tne oucuaea
parties to represent correctly their
side of the case :
"It is announced that Senator
Iluthr'a friend, Jam i. Lloyd,
the nominee of the Populists, has
been appointed to a lucrative posi
tion in the Senate in the place of a
Democrat transferred from the force
of Sergeant at-Arms Bright tc the
roll ot Secretary of the Senate Cox.
This arrangement, it is f. ared by
tho friends of Major H. I- Grant,
ol North Carolina, will prevent his
election as sergeant at ar ns ; will
a. so defeat the election or Mr. Shaw,
of Montana, as secretary of the
Senate, and keei not onl . Messrs.
Cox and Bright in office but a!o

who arc now in the employ of the

Died. -V
are pained to chronicle the
death ot Mrs. Celia Jones, wife of
Thomas Jones. She was a diUfl ter
of Mr. Tyrn Creed, and was b trn
August 22nd, 1872, died February
16th, 18'Jt), making bur stay on earth
2'i years, 5 months a-.d 2 J days. She
w married to Thomas Jones, son
of G. W, Jones, December 27th,
131M. She was a kind, aiiuctioua'e
and obedient child ; it seemed a
pleasure to bet to please her parents.
Some time after she was married she
professed a hope in Christ, but she
never attached herself to any church
but was a strong believer in the
Primitive Baptist. She loved to
hear preaching, delighted in having
company, and treated them with
loving kindness. She leaves many
kind friends to mourn thoir loss,
besides a kind husband, mother,
four brothers and two sisters She
fixed a portion of her clothes rpady
for her burial, before her confine
ment to her bed, and said she would
never get well, that she regretted
to leave her dear husband, but that
sho had to go. She told how alio
wished her things divided. Her
mind was good on the evening of the
14th, when we thought she was al
most gone, she finked us all to pray
for her. The second lime she Sbked
I told herl bad tried soveral times,
that she must j av for heruelf. She
seemed veiy quiet for about 5 hours,
several had come in to spend the
night, tho most of them were in the
kitchen, they came in after us, she
had revived and was praying loud
enough to bo he'ird in the kitchen.
It seemed sho had gained now
strength, and prayed a little over
half an hour, and several said it wjs
tho most beautiful prayer they over
heard. Sho prayed for herhelf, her
husband, mother, brothers, sisters,
neighbors, and ever body. Then she
seemed to bo perfectly calm, asked
us all what was the matter, what we
were Utking on so about, said she
did not want us toirrievc after her.
Sho told her experience a week
before she died. Suid while in dis
tress he reviewed herself in a dark
pit and could not get out ; then a
blight litfht shone all around her
and the blessed Ixtrd appeared nnto
her and reached dow n, took her by
the hand, and helped her out. In
her prayer she beug' d her dear
Lord to show her His light again.
On the night of the 15th she said,
"the light has come, rai-e mo up."
Mostly raitting herself, she sit
straight in the bed, acked those
around to look at the light, called
her luiebaiid to lock and said that
was the most beautiful morning she
ever saw, that sh-( saw o many
pretty things. She told them where
she wantcu to bo buried and that
she wanted Elders G. O. Key and
Gabriel Denny to preach her fu
neral at the crave. Slio talked
with much raliuiRt-s and did not
shed a tear. It seemed that she could
repeat the language of Pan', "when
I am weik then I am strong," for
she had not raised her head until
then.
On Sunday morning, the 10th, at
half past 10 o'clock, she passed away
as calm and quiet as one gone to
sleep.
