Ator- i ney Ueneral McKerina, prob nbly thinking it a reflection iipoifhis WZ,, nbilit. to have the ttublic know that this matter is to be discussed by Mr. McKinley and his ol- leagues of the Oubiiiet, has nndu a public denial tlntthe ' ofiinion waH lieinjr held back :to await MrMl Kinley's re turn. All the same' nobody exptM ts the opinion to be ren dered until Mr, McKinley re turns and approves of it. tA Kentucky Democrat John 0. Woods, of Louis ville, has put a portion of the administration on pins and "needles by brinjriiiy: a pnit against the Postmaster (jcneral to prevent hisremov al, without cause, from n pr sition in the classified civil service, lie obtained a tein porary rest raining orler a gainst his removal, and the hearing was to have taken place Saturday, but the gov ernment asked for a contin uance of one week, nnd got it. Th'i ease will probably be -appealed to the U.S. Su pro me Court, no matter how it may be decided. According to advices just received, Senator Ihirrows has spent the entire summer in trying to smooth the way for his otfn return to the Sen ate, and in placing obstacles in the path of Governor Pin gree, who thinks he would till that Senatorial chair much better than Burrows does, and he is not yet fay in his mind. Piugreehasgot Burrows where be has all th" " other Michigan Hepudlicans u'raid 'f him. The Civil Service has re ceived such on avalanche of correspondence from the ar my of would be recruits, for Uncle Sam's Civil Service, concerning offers made to fuiniHh information, for a fee, by private parties, that - it haa issued a circular letted containing the following pointed announcement: "No person has any information of importance to applicants, concerning examinations examinations which mnnot be obtained without cost from the Commission. All claims to the contrary there fore are inisrepresenta ijonH.'V-- -T.hict'iti of the g-ivern-me,nt. for: the'inonrli of Au gust, under the Ding ley tar iff Jaw. were $6,538,582 less "than the receipts for , Argust. 1896, under the Wilson tar iff law. It may be that the claims of th' Republicans hs to t Ij e 'revenue-producing qualitieM of the Dinalpy tariff will be realized at sometime in the futur?, but the above figures show that they are, us yet, a long way from be ing realized. The Republicans are show ing how confident they are of "arrying Ohio by colonizing voters there from West Vir ginia and other adjacent state.). The Democrats are fully aware of what is being done in that line, and Boss Halloa's heir.-hmen will find it much easier to cai rv men into Ohio and give them tern porary work than it will be to register and vote them. The Spanish Minister i s still keeping the revenue cut ters of the U. S. Government busy hunting for Cuban fili busters. He informed Secre tary Gage that, the filibusters had abandoned Florida as a smarting point and were pie paring to send several exne Tlitions fiom the Carolina coast and Secretaiy Gage obediently issued an oiderto. the commanders of all rt.v li ne cutters in Southern waters to keep an extra close watch on the Carolina coast for filibusters. This sort ol work must bennre or less jisgust ing to the offices and men in oar revenue 'marine service, but they have no choice i.i the matter. They must o bey t he orders ot the Secie fary of the Treasury, ever, ii those orders are dictated by the Spanish Minister. Tliee in No Other Is.ms. Tin; opinion is gro.ving, is perhaps rapidly crystahzing that there must be an earnest detei mined campaign fought in North Carolina for the su premacy of the white race, and it will be starred withtill needed vigor probably next year. The decent people of Anglo-Saxon 'descent are re markably tired of the rascal ities oiiQ lawlessness of these times, are disgusted at the tnii-ulence, brazen effrontery, deceit fulness and treachery o f the new-fledged leaders now to the front, nnd of the bad laws enacted by the last two utterly ignorant, incap able and unfaithful legisla tures. A party inspired by patriotism, a love of their race, thorough fidelity to eternal principles of right and justice and" honor and manluod will be the proba ble outcome next year. Wil mington Messenger. Merit should be the badge of preferment, by whosoever worn, whether by rich or poor, learned or unlearned, without regard to condition, sect, party or otherwise. When true worth is set a sid, quietly or rudely, by wrong methods, sooner or later the consequences will have to be reaped. A straight forward course, and not try ing to hinder others in the same line is in the right and the best way in the end. Ma rioii Messenger. Towiu Named Altar Statee. Boston Globe.''-..i.' .

Marion Messenger: Fnll business is beginning to be lclt a little. Times are grad ually growing better, thanks to the good crops, and ces sation of national legislative tariff discussion. This is in spite of the highest tariff un der the present law. But do not hinder the good times acoming. The news coincsfiom Wilkes county that a white woman testified that a negro on trial was "her lover ahd she loved him." If intelligent white teachers are under the con trol of negro school commit teemen, who can expect any better of degraded white wo man? If the Anglo Saxon manhood of the State fs not true enough to itself to drive out the gang that sees no harm in negro equality und negro denomination, ourciy ilization will perish. News and Observer. h'y-Tu-Hao (or fifty Cents. Guaranteed totinc- o liaiiit euro, makes weak men u-vutf, bisovl ;urc. &uc, ft. All Urugyisls. Conger' BUI of Particular. ;lt is gratifying to see that there is at least one Ohio Be publican who has not grovel led in the dirt before Mark Hanna and his money-bags. In the history of this coun try there has been ro specta cle in any party soshameless as the domination of Hanna. He -has no idea of politics ex cept as a game where money tolls. He hasn't dared to open his mouth in the Senate for fear Vest would peel hirr from head to heels. He is the most disgusting product of corruption who has come to the service, in an age where money dominates brains. Col. Conger furnishes a bill of particulars of Hannas bolting the party when he had nothing at stake. The following is an extract fiom a -letter written by-Conger and read a few davs ago at Akron befjre six thousand people; "When I went to Hanna at the request of Myron T. Her rick, A.,C. Howard and some of the young Republicans of Cleveland with the request that U and his friends help Foraker. he put his hand on my knee, looked me square in the face and said: "Not a d n cent for Fora ker, I dm 't like him, and I'll bed n .f I will vote for him. On the' contrary I will do al I can against him.' I then mentioned . Foraker to him for Senator, and his re ply was: 'Not a d n cent for the close counties. If we carry the Legislature Fora ker will be a candid.ite for Senator.' I then said to him: "Do vou mean to sav that you would rather see a Dem ocrat in tlte Senate than For aker?'' 'That is about the sizi? of ir,' said he. That's the kind o f a Republican Hanna was in 1889, and the Cleveland Leader says we must be loyal to him now." D moiietlzation of Gold. There is ground for the be lief that the time isapproach irg when the abundance of gold may compel commercial nations to demonetize that metal and set up silver, or some other precious metal, as the standard of values. There is perhaps no .immi nent danger of such a condi tion, but if all the predictions :f geological expel ts should happen to be verified, it must come to pass At least, tlw re is a strong probability that the time is not distant wiicn the free nnd unlimited coinage of gold will no longer be possible, and the restrict ed coinage of Hie yellow met al will become a necessity. Minneapolis Times. The Ohio Democrats will open their campaign on the 2'Jrd of September, which date has been selected be cause, on September 23rd, 170, three militiamen resist ed a bribe of 10,000 guineas in British gold, offered to them by Maj. Andre. It is to be hoped that Hanna's millions will not buy Ohioans this year. If so, it will show they are not worthy descend- ents of the militiameii.-News und Observer.

How far the threat of iu gm.dominntion has gone in some of the eastern counties is.shown by the fact, report ed by t he Kinston Free Press, that in Woodington town ship, in that county, npgio school committeeman stated that hh would visit a white teacher, a lady, nnd demand her resignation or her certifi cate, apparently merely to show his assumed power. The next election in North Carolina ought to make it certain lorever that no such threat could thereafter be made in this State anywhere. Abbeville Citizen. At Our Hoarding House. "Here is a new oorinuu drmn," said the cheerful boarder; "1 made it myself. What is thp difference be tween me and a Klondike miner! Can you guess. Mrs. Hahleigh?" "No, I never liked connnndrums," snopp ed the landlady. "All give'it up?" There was no response. "Because," said the cheer ful boarder, "one slakes the claim and the other claims the steak!" And he' helped himself to the last bit of sirloin on the platter. Progressive F a r mer. T h e Morganton Herald says it i reliably informed that within the last week or 10 days a Mr. Kreisher, with shovel and pan, has taken out a pit about four feet square and about three feet deep, over 400 pennyweights of g.ild. at a mine belonging to I) McKinzie, of Morgan ton, near the famous Pax Hill mines, six or eight miles north of town. A nugget weighing 100 pennyweights was taken out last week. This nugget sold for $82. .1. W. Raggett, of Oak Grove, Fla., had an attack of the measles, nearly three years ago, and the disease left him 'with very severe pains in thechest. "I thought I would die," he writes; "but to my great joy, I was saved b y Chamberlain's I' a i n Balm," Pains in the chest nearly always indicate an approach of pneumonia, and by promptly applying this liniment oa a flannel cloth, which should tie bound on the chest, an attack of pneu monia may be prevented. It is always prompt and effect ual. For sale nt 2i and 50 cents per bottle by M. B. Blackburn.
