TiiERf; is a proposition be
fore Congress to mak; the
Census Bureau a continuous
raair, instead of only taking
the census every ten years. It
is claimed that it can he done
cheaper with the proper ar
mn;enjents with trained of
ficials, and that the work can
be done with more accuracy
and dispatch. The proposi
tion is to keep up the statis
tic ot the country to date
and to enable the officials to
obtain facts and figures per
taining to the growth of the
country, at any time. No
doubt this change will be for
the better, as the condition
of tilt country can be report
eci at any time, nnd perhaps
a more reliable census can be
obtained.
Mb. Roby Kstes and sister,
of Blowing Book, attended
the wedding nnd supper at
Dr. Councill's and told ns
that their fathpr. I,. W. I
tea, waa preparing to more
went in April. Bobj h a s
spont some time in the west,
and is anxious to return, as
are all the members of the
family. We dislike very much
to give up such good people,
but people will continue to
go West. North and East,
and others will still come
South. A general mixture of
population may be for the
bet. If prosperity ever o
vertakes this country again,
we would be pleased to abide
here through life. Every
thing is dull and motionless
now, but we hope fortha bet
ter. We will try it a few
years longer, and then we
will be too old to go West,
kIk.uI 1 we live.
If the Legislature wants
to do the fair thing, we mean
the democrats of courwe, Edi
tor A -, of th News and
Observer, would be appoint
ed State printer without op
position' We think we know
munethmg of the effective
work the Nensjwi Ouserrer
did d u ri ng t he cam pa ign . The
printing ought to have been
let to Mr. Ashe two years a
go, and nov it is more appa
rent that he deserves it. We
hope th legislature will do
the fair and square thing in
this matter. The democrats
in North Carolina appreciate
Editor Ashe and claim for
him a manly recognition by
the legislature.

It is a noticeable fact that
thst the third party mem
bers in our legislature vote
with the few republican mem
beisonall questions of re
form, thereby going back on
their own principles advoca
ted in the campaign. In the
next campaign they will be
republicans or the republi
cans will tie third party men.
It is evident now that they
have been courting for some
time and a marriage will
take place -the day may be
set. The only question now
is, which party will be the
groom ?
The two Mouses of Con
gress assembled on the 8th
inst., in the hnll of the House
of Representatives to hear
the vote of the Presidential
electors announced. The Vice
President announced t h a t
Cleveland nnd Stevenson had
received 277 votes; Harrison
tnd Reid 14a; Weaver and
Fields, 122, making in all 4-41
elect oral votes. Cleveland has
1 10 majority over Harrison
and Weaver, or 87 more votes
than was necessary to elect
him.
Juixn: V'. B. Allen, popu
list, was elected U. S. Sena
tor by the Nebraska Legisla
ture; all the democratic mem
bers voting solidly for him.
This was a heavy blow on
the republieuns. Mr. Allen
made a brief speech in which
he promised conservative ac
tion. It is presumed that lie
will net with the democrats
on most of the political is
sues. Thekeis no new Cabinet
to report this week. It ap
pears that Cleveland has an
art to keep his own counsel
about his Cabinet until he
chooses to annonnce them,
t'arlisle is the onlv sute one
known to the public. The
4th dav of March will reveal
the Cabinet, and they will be
able and suitable men. Cleve
land don't want any other
kind. He has no pets.

All legislative bodies inert
up with much business of a
privute and local charucture.
There has been no definite
conclusion in regard to any
changes intheschool law, the
homestead law, the working
of public roflds, general ap
propriations, rail toad tax
matters, and other leading
measures, but the various
committees are at work on
them and will report them
in due time no doubt, lfali
the changes in te code are
made that is demanded by
the various members, there
will he very little of the code
remaining,
The World's Fair appro
priation bill for $40,000 was
ii mended oy Capt.Lovill and
?2.").(!00 was substituted and
adopted, ayes 88 nays 10 on
second reading. The biP pass
ed its third reading DO a.vrs
10 nays.
The Senate passed the (log
tax law, the House vo'ed it
down. The Wilmington and
Weldon rail road tax mat
ter is occupying a gre t deal
of tifne.thisisaback tax ;nnt
ter, it is claimed that tin
road o w e 8 $130,000 buck
taxes. While the rail road
company elaim that 20,000
is all that is due and are wil
ling to pay that sum, the
company claims protection
under their charter in regard
to back taxes. This is a big
t hing just now for the legisla
ture to "monkey" with.
If the legislature taxes the
entire franchises of all the
rail roads it will mid many
more millions of taxable pro-'
pet ty to thestate. And why
not rail roads pay taxes 011
all the property ah same as
u farmer or a merchant?
Many of the news paper
thatscored Blaine politically
and other wise, while he was
living, now sound his praise
and noble qualities, much
as to say that Mr. Blnin
was a bad fellow while a live
but wheu dead he is a very
great man. From thisit ap
peared that a man's virtues
and noble qualities are not
recognised until he is dead
and buried. When e man
passes over the river he is
harmless and the living fear
him no longer.
