F KID AY, FEBRUaKY 5, 1892. The Chilian war in settled and now the mit da of iiewspapf mn r taxed to fiud somethiug the to excite the public reader. To-day a D mocratio cannus will be held in tbe House to determine wLat to do . boat tho silver question. Thisl an important qaestiou to tbe pepl of the coon try and we hope it may be folly disco d ao that the peopie may receive auuie liht upon the subject. "' SiCRETAi-T Waine celebrated Lis hix y. tecorid birth day ou Sunday. Be ia atid in the piime of bfe. which to Harrison a .d it few other Kepnbl can office seekers ia a bitter truth. They would have it appear that he is a physical wreck, which were it so, niigut keep them out of a political wreck ia 18U8.' - Ex-Pkesidekt Clevtland is making a tonr of the South aiid at etery station List train is welcoun d with wild enthusiasm. When it pulled up t s.-niral station Atlanta on Tuesday it was saluted , by , the roar o cannon aud a cheer of we.comr' to the great Democratic leader weut np from the throat of 5,000 people. The Southern people eith er have great love for Mr. , Cleveland or a large amount of curios, ty to see what he looks Jike The Supreme Court of the Uuited States has decided that Governor e ect Boyd of Nebraska is a citizen of that State, made so by the naturalization law ef this country t aud that h has the same right to hold any office in the gift of the people as tbe native born citizen, Ttiis Court has also decided that tb anti lottery act of the last Congress ia Conetilu. tional. These sre both important decisions ai they settle question that have been much discussed At a ioint'iimeeting of tbe merchants an5 farmers of Wake county held at kaleigh on Monday resolutions were passed iecoin. mending that the cotton acreage Be reduced at least 20 per cant, and that as far as pes, sible the farm be made aIf sustaining. We believe that if the merchants aad farmers of every county would hold such meetings and become equally interested iu the work of each otber, that much good couid be done. That which benefits the farmer mast be of interest to the merchant, and the interests of both can be better cured for by co-opcra. tion. ; AFTER many days aud much discussion, the Chili, or Chile, as it is called by the State Department, matter has been settled but not however, before thousands of dol, lara had bean spent by this government in making preparation fur war, which at one time seem d unavoidable. Chili had plenty ( time to co aider the matter, and in .tbat time she was caretully sizing tbe United States up, aud when tbe time came for action she- laid sside her hostility and quietly admitted the error ef her way, and with all retptct to tbe Uuited States. aid she would do anything rather than face the shot and shell from the American gu. No matter how unwise the actions of her citizens who assau.ted tbe Laltiiiiore'a sailors, tbe go vert men t showed its wisdom wben it rei o t.ed to go w war witn sucb a power a this country. The fact that our government baa spent many dollars in pieparing for this expec ted conflict, is not to be regretted ; for the coal and otber supplies can be disposed oft nH it I.. Ybl nnp NttffV in h(lv fiAnilitiAn than : it was whn the fiit war cleud ap. peared, and a few such experiences is beneficial to the government. It causes officials to give the matter ef onr navai power more serious thought. . - Perhaps Chili thought Uncle Sam was 'ike Minister Egan, shaky, but not so, and the pn per thing to be done bow is for Uncle Sam to give Mr. Egan the bounce and send in his place a man that wM give Chili a fair specimen of Americanism. - Owr Courts. 1892.

THE DRINK HABIT I ITS DE CLIlf C. TemfercBee Teacher. Instead of drink being the rule now sufoug native Amerieans. it is tbe excep tion. It is rarely seen on oUr dining tables Church members seldom make a practice of drinking. It is never beard of at ordi nations, and not often at funerals. Ihou- sands of children have grown np without ever taking a glass f brverane. Totti abstinence has become reaDectable. and drunken bs a disgrace. And yet sensible people eeriunsly tell ns tbat onr reformatory rotb(ds must be given np, because we have made no progress. They say there is more drinking per capita now than wben we began tbia temperance work. Will they please tei! as if this means more whiskey or more beer 7 But suppose it means more alcohel, wiil they, please tell ns how much we wonld have been taking at tbe previous rapid rate of increased immigration of drinkers, if it had not been for teinperauee work and teaching?
