RALEIGH, N. C, JULY 14, 1891
ALL HELP.
Now that the selection of a man
to get up an exhibit for the county
at the Exposition has been made( in
the person of Mr. Geo. E. Gill, it is
to be hoped that every farmer in the
county will do all he can to aid Mr.
Gill. The time is short, and the
best season has passed for securing
the most desirable specimens in some
products, and unless aid is given in
the shape of information as to where
specimens can be obtained, &c Mr.
Gill will have a hard time. What
we want for Wake county and for
the whole State is to make the very
best exhibit possible, and if anybody
will help we will succeed.
3000 Volts and Still Alive.
This is another blow at the scienti
fic nonsense of electrocution. Line
man Wm. Murphy, of St. Louis, aged
80 years, received 3000 volts, which is
1400 more than was used at Sing Sing
the other day, and the man is still
alive and sufficiently recovered to tell
of his indescribable sufferings. His
flesh was burned and he had been
pronounced dead.
Cave in of a Cole Mine.
A disastrous cave occurred in the
mines of the Kingston Cole company
near Larksville, 5 miles from Wilkes
barre, Pa., on Sunday morning. The
village is built directly over the mines
and when the surface sank, it was so
sudden that the upward rush of the
' air blew the roof off the fan house
For hundreds of feet in all directions
the earth is sunken and cracked and
many buildings are badly damaged
A Novel Law Suit.
New Orleans has a rather strange
law suit just now. Mrs. Margaret G
Gordon, an invalid, has sought relief
in the courts from the annoyance of
the singing of a mocking bird owned
by her next door neighbor, Mrs. Ma
ry L. White. We expect there will be
a lively time over the musical note of
the mocking bird yet, and some new
law may evolve.
Finally Settled.
Mrs. Jefferson Davis has Anally de
cided that the last resting place of
her husband shall be at Richmond,
Va., because it was the capital of the
confederacy. Mr. Davis died in New
Orleans on the 6tb of December, 1S89
and his remains were buried there
Jackson, Mississippi, New Orleans
and Richmond all put in claims to
furnish his grave and monument.
The three great iumber States of
the Northwest, Michigan, Wisconsin
and Minnesota, are killing the goose
that lays their golden eggs at a rate
will soon make both goose and eggs
only a memory. The value of the
forest products not manufactured at
mill in the three States for 1890 was
$80,426,194; value of mill products,
$115,699,004, and of manufactures,
$81,112,618, makihg a total value of
lumber products for the year of
$167,287,816. This branch of industry
employed about 1 85,000 hands and
distributed $95,688 256 for wages,
subsistence, supplies and miscel
laneous expenses. At this rate there
will soon be a lot of lumber capital
ists and a good many thousands of
employees looking for new lumber
worlds to conquer in other States.
NortU Carollua trca Couveu.
tion.
The next meeting of the North
Carolina Press Association will be
held in Winston, Wednesday and
Thursday, August i2th and VMu
Already arrangements are bdug
made for the meeting. The Winston
people who never do things by halves,
will give the editors a grand time, one
that will be memorable in the As
sociation's history.
I hope every editor who will attend
will notify me at once. I must have
the names of all who will go as soon
as possible, in order to arrange for
transportation, etc. All the railroads
will give transportation to and from
Winston in exchange for advertising.
State exactly over what lines and
from what points you desire passes.
Do not leave me to infer anything.
"No one but a bona fide editor or
publisher of newspapers in North
Carolina is eligible to membership in
the Press Association, and none oth
ers will be entitled to any courtesies
extended to delegates. This rule will
be strictly enforced. It is useless for
anyone except an active editor or
publisher to apply for membership or
transportation. Every applicant for
membership must have been con
nected with the newspaper business
in the above capacity at least three
months. Editors or publishers of
college or school papers, or other
publications having nothing in com
mon with the newspaper business,
and owners of papers not directly
engaged in the editorial or business
management, are not eligible, and
will be rigidly excluded.
Members will remember that the
annual fees, $2, should be paid to the
secretary and treasurer before the
meeting. Applicants for member
ship must pay $3 initiation fee. which
also pays their dues for one year.
This will most probably be the
largest convention the Association
has ever held. At the close an ex
cursion will probably be taken to the
live town of Wilkesboro, and possibly
other excursions will be on the pro
gramme.
Do not delay, but write to me at
once, if you will go.

Banks.
The banks in the South have in
creased vary much within a few years,
and it continues. The North had
almost the whole circulation at one
time. Even as late as 1875, the entire
South had but 174 banks while little
New England had 538, and the Middle
States 6-6. But there is a marked
change. In 1890, the figures were
528 banks in the South, 582 in New
England, and 837 in the Middle
States.
The Western States have 1,599, It
will be seen that great as is the in
crease in the number of Southern
banks that there is room for many
more. In fact there is still some in
equality and to the disadvantage of
the South. The capital, it is stated
in the New Orleans Times Democrat,
is for New England and the Middle
States $355,090,000-a falling off of
$8,000,000 since 1878 -and for the
South $300,000,000, or more than
double.
Mr. Blaine's Condition.
Bab Harbor, July 12. The steam
yacht Susquehanna was in the liars
bor this morning, with President
Sewell, of the Maine Central, and
General Hyde, of Portland. Both
called on Mr. Blaine. It has been a
gala day with the prominent invalid.
He received callers all the morning
and went driving all the afternoon
with his physician, Dr. Taylor, who
is devoting his whole time to keeping
Mr. Blaine amused and drive away
the melancholia, which is now his on
ly trouble.
This is a serious trouble as it affects
himmentaliy. He is living under a
constant fear of dying suddenly. If
this fear can be dispelled there is no
doubt but that he will be as well as
ever.
That Oraugemen'a Hiot
The rioters at the Orangemen's
parade on Saturday night, at Front
and Jefferson streets were Riven a
hearing before Magistiate Uillepaie
at the Tenth district station hoiiBe
yesterday.
There were live of the men ar
rested. The charges against them
were for assault and battery, inter
fering with an officer, broach of the
peace and rioting. James Carson
and John McCaughey were held iu
$400 for breach of the peace, Patrick
McGinn was chanced with rioting
and held iu $800 bail for court and
Lewis and August Razer were charged
with interfering with an officer and
held for a further hearing today.
The men were all mixed up iu the
row that took place at Front and
Jefferson streets when the Kensing
ton lodges were returning from the
Orangemen's picnic. There were
several stones thrown and blackjacks
used, but no one was seriously hurt.
In the row one woman fainted. The
story that three policemen, in quell
ing the disturbance, were seriously
injured is without foundation in
fact. The officers were not in any
way hurt.
