THE EDITORS' MEETING.
3Iorg:aiiton ICeceives 3Ir miters
of the Press with OuUIrecIicd
Arms and Opeu Doors.
Our last issue contained an account
of the meeting at Morganton lasi week
of the editors of the State in conven
tion. We desire to add a tribute to the
kind, progressive and hospitable people
of Morganton, but cannot find language
to do them justice.
The business of the convention was
attended to bv the members of the
Press Association in day time, and the
members of the Press were attended to
by the citizens of Morganton, Wednes
day and Thurso iy nights, "and the
editors were royally entertained by our
hosts.
There was no need of latch-strings
on the outside, for Morganton's doors
were wide open. Genuine hospitality
surpassed the meaning of the words,
ind at the ball, reception and banquet,
Morganton's refinement, beauty, grace
md chivalry, to say nothing of beauti
ful ladies, love and flowers, made eter
nal impressions upon the hearts and
minds of every North Carolina quill-
driver present. Old editors grew young,
middle-aged ones were carried back to
their happy teens, and the young fel
lows like your humble servant w ho had
just started in business to fill long-felt
Wants were so over-whelmed wit'.i the
joys of the occasion that their minds
were entirely freed from the troubles
of past-due bills and the cussed n ess of
delinquent subscribers.
At the banquet speeches were made
by several of Morganton's citizens and
a number of editors.
The reception given by Hon. John
II. Pearson, Mayor, at his elegant and
palatial residence was the handsomest
ever tendered the North Carolina Press.
The banquet supper was sumptuous
and elegant, and the ball was the
grandest ever seen in Western Xorth
Carolina.
The editors were driven to all inter
esting points about the city, among
them the Western Hospital, where they
were pleaatly entertained by Dr. Mur
phy and assistants.
Morganton cannot be excelled
whatever she undertakes.
The Absociatiou elerted the follow
ing officers for the ensuing year : Pre.-i
dent, W. C. Krwin editor of the Mor
ganton Herald; Vice-President, C L.
Stevens, second Vice-President, YV. F
Marshall ; third Vice-President, . (

ition will be held in Greensboro.

There is a man who Jives near Aj
thonv. Kan., who makes considerable
mnnov juit of a well-trained pony. No
oue knows the history of the animal.
which is u half Indian and half Texan,
tnd which can run a mile against an
nri-ra-'i! thoroughbred.
Us master ai:d any member of the
."amilv can rido it anywhere with ease
and it appears to bo the best behaved
notiv the world has ever seen. l!ut it
oblccts stron?lv to being ridden by
strangers, and when times aro hard its
owner will get into a croud and olfer
bets indiscriminately that no one can
rido the pony a dozen blocks. Those
who know the pony are much too dis
creet to take any chances, but II tliere
are strangers present there are al way-
takers, and when the stake is put up it
is to all intents aud purposes the prop
erty of the pony owner. Tho very best
of riders fail ignominiously when they
try to exhibit their skill on this pecul
iar little creature.
It does not waste anytime on ordi
nary bucking, but proceeds demurely
for a few paces at a rocking chair gait.
Then it sv.-ir.sf udilcnly around, cither
to the right or left, with vtry limb
sti.Tened out. with the rider generally
goirg off at a t inger.t to his utter as
tonishment. When thi- trick fails tho
pouy ha another one which ia fctill
more bewildering iu character, and if
these fail it has a way of slipping down
on its haunches at an inopportune mo
ment, which disconcerts ev;n an expert
cowboy.
