Ex-Governor Thomas J. - Jaryis has announced him self a candidate for the Uni ted States Senate to Succeed Marion Butler. North Caroli na has no more worthy son than Thomas J. J arvis, and clmtilrt Via a rhnoAn t.hp riPO- ijleof the State will have a -representative in the Senate V of whpm they will feel proud. He is au old Confederate sol dier, one who carries on his person the scais of minie ball and shell; is a gentleman, statesman, and scholar, and is easily the equal of anj one who has been spoken of for the position. The trouble ' , Y flm Ttuinnmiotm nurtvin VI I I II IIIO UUIIy pill I" Nort Carolina now seems to be that it possf ses quite an excess of choice Senatorial timber, the, weakest of whom would be a credit to Butler, the out-going Senator. They qo say that the Hon. J. B. Fortune, one of t h e most popular republicans in the State, has come out as an independent candidate for Comrress in this district. He ia a man of muoh prominnre in his piirty, has a strong fol lowing, and the prospects for bim ro carry more votes in the district than Blackburn are most flattering. If For tune continues in the tace, of course the last spark of hope that has been so feebly flicker ing in the breast of Black burn, since the nomination of his democratic opponent, , the Hon. J. Buxton, will be come extinct and the star of hope will forever have set in the heart of this young radi cal, who, it is said, was nom inated for Congress, by a few ! office-holders, and revenue, doodlers. Farewell, Spencer. Now the republicans ad mit that McKinley will have great trouble in both Imii ana and Illinois. It is not news that the g. o. p. has a boot given up hopeinlndi i ana,' but it is comforting to a degte to hear of their al arm in regard to Illinois, w hich ga ve McKinley . 145 , ,000 Majority in '96. If Illi. -uois is donbtfol, what can we not .ot expect in other western : That rh.iri ry "which buf fer eth long and is kind" and a certain per -ent, of-which dwelU in every human breast is being felt and exhibited bj the people of the United Slates p the generous way in which they are coming to the relief of fialveston, t h e grief stricken city of t be sea. How beautiful it is to see how promptly call for re li f wan responded to. From the hamlets to the inetropo Ih is being sent, a n d non has gFven moie cheerful ly and ungrudginglv tlmnthe horny luind o) toil. Heart heats id hen rt. in sympathy with these unfortunate ones, who. such a tew days ago, were happy and prosperous, and "bade all care be gone" are to-dav sitting in the Bask cloth and ashes of desola tion and bereavement. The homes can be lebuilt again, bat money can never replace the loed ones in the homes again. Never again will their voices be heard until the sea gives up its dead, which it claimed on that fateful day. It is hard to satisfy some paople. Mr. Bryan spoke on mperialism first and the Re publicans charged him with abandoning free silver and other issues. Then he spoke on silver and thej sa ia that he was afraid to tackle the trusts. Now he has spoken on trusts and they say be is so diffusive in his loves that he cannot be devoted to any on of them. British scientists saybat the bubonic plague has nn doubtedly been brought to the United Stutes from one or more of the six points of infection with hich it is now in regular communication but it will lie dormant until next summer when it will oreak out with virulence. It is to be hoped that the. scien ti8ts are wrong. NOTICE. By virtue of the power of sale contained in a certain mortgage deed executed to the undersigned by F. P. Long and M. F.

RHie nis oepTV z, ivvv. The Hon. J. C. Buxton, of Forsyth, the democratic can didate for Congress in this district, spoke at the court bouse yesterday evening, af ter ogr-'forms were closed and we are unable to make any comments tnereon in this issue. It is said, however, that he is making a fine cam paign, and that ho is literal ly devouring E. Spencer, bis opponent, who will not dare to meet him on the stump, for fear Buxton will hit him with the negro question. Ob, Spencer, are you ashamed of he record you made in the last campaign? Can it be that it was so black you cannot stand to have it aired in joint discussion, or is it that you simply fear to meet the is sues, and have the negro ques tion as a loop bole through which to escape? Now, come, Spence, tell us how this is, Everyone knows that the coal barons cannot makeany real concessions to their men because they have got to save up money in order t o pay their campaign assess mentsto the republican par ty. Such being the case, it is the wor9t of hypocrisy for the republicans to put forth anon ymous statements that Mr. Mr. Hanna is bringing press ure to bear on the operators to induce theft to end the strike. A Wonderntl Care of Duurrhori. A prominent Virginia edi tor had almost given up, but was brought back to perfect health by Chamberlain's Col ic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. Read his editorial from the Times, HillsvilleVa; UI suffered with diarrhoea for a long time and thought I was past being cured. I had spent much time and money and suffered so much miser j that 1 had almost decided to give up si! hopes of recovery and await the result, but no ticing the advertisement' of Chamberlain's Colic; Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and and also some testimonials stating how tome wonderful cares had been wrought by this remedy, l decided to try it.
