P. CALDWELL " day, Only twice In recent yeara haa It jomicrs m Bimei.tH.ro. v. a,, wne .a. t..to o iui r,A 11 ill! by the mob as If they were children. in 1901: Soma papers both Democratic and Republican have attached con siderable. Importance to the else of the plurality lo Vermont, and tew days h go The Springfield Republican noted that by A curious coincidence "when ever the Republican plurality haa fallen below 25,000 the Democrats have carried the country ae In 1S7, 1884 and 1902; and the greater the fall from the 25,000 mark the more sweeping haa been the Democratic victory for the presidency. Thla decline waa smallest In 187$ When the national result waa close enough to cause a contest, and largest In the tidal-ware year of 19J." Doubtless with this In view, the Republlcana have worked hard to keep the plurality j over 25,000, while the Democrats exerted themselves to bring It below that fig ure. The reault la apparently a victory for the Republlcana, and that fact tends to cause eorae disappointment to Democrats, aa ahowlng that sentiment In the Greet Mountain State tins un dergone little If any change with re gard U the Democracy since the de sertion of. Bryanlam. With these things In mind it 1 of Interest to note what The New York Commercial, a Repub lican supporter, aaid on the morning of the election, before a vote had been cast:, ... "The alae of the Republican plurality In Vermont in this respect Is. hoVever. a very Uncertain guide. In September. 1892. that State gave a plurality of 19,702 for the Republican State ticket and In November save a plurality of 21.700 for the Republi can electoral ticket. In September, 1, It gave plurality of 38.600 for the Republi can State ticket and in November a plu rality of 40.500 for the Republican electoral ticket In September, 190(1, however, it re turned a plurality of 31,300 for the Repub lican State ticket, and in November a plu rality of only 9.700 for the Republican electoral ticket, although the popular vote for McXInley'ln that' year. In the country at large, was S0,000'more than It was In 190. . -1 The tact la -that the Green Mountain Btate changes so little in the sise and character of its population that the result cf an' election in that State has ceased to be regarded as a mirror of popular sentiment in the rest of the country. It will be safe to assume that if there Is a riirllne In the Republican plurality for State officers to-day it will mean that the average Vermont voter Is satisfied with" the 1 sort of Btate government he la now receiving, and that he wouldn't take the trouble to go to the polls to vote.,' ' . Every "four years the politicians of the two parties endeavor to discern the drift of sentiment by these early fall State elections, numerous coincidences showing that there may be some sig nificance in them. The fact Is, how ever, as The Commercial says, that such returns are very uncertain guides, as the figures It quotes show. Had .the Vermont majority fallen materially below 25,000 Democratic papera .would doubtless have seised upon It aa significant, and yet, as the paper quoted says, it will mean that the average Republican voter is satis fied With the sort of State government he Is now receiving and did not go to i he polls. As it la, however, they all probably lined up for the 'tnoral ef fect and at the Instance of the na tional leaders of the g. o. p., and as a matter of fact there la no reason why ... w . ..... .w. the Democrats should take anything ; more than a,' momentary note of the alt- i .ui. lu.1. I,.. ! smie. xnere is aouDiiesa a good aeai of difference between the ability of Mr. Chas. X.iBell, as Governor, and Mr. Theodore Roosevelt, as President, or If not, Vermont is playing in about as bid luck as the nation at large should tha , Republicans triumph this fall. A party, of professional cracksmen haa been operating In this State for more than a year, and It is doubtful If they - have been outside the State In that time.1 ' Periodically we read of a store a, postofBce or other place being entered and the safe crack d and rob tx'd, and . it Is scarcely to be doubted t hat it Is done by the same crowd every time. The richest haul it has made In :rth Carolina' was at Yadktnvllle, Tuesday night, when It robbed the unity, treasurer of 18,000 or 110,000 and the postofBce of $300 or $400. Ire every t.ise the gang conducts Its operations undisturbed and escapes with Its booty 'H.out difficulty.?

A state militia command cannot be atarted, It seems, anywhere, without going wild at the Unit aiopplnr place looting res taurants, chasing and Inflicting; In juries upon station by-standet, and bringing all klnda of disgrace upon themselves. Thin la the reason thai moba defy and despise State troopa while they have nil sorts of fear of and respect for Uiicle Sum's men The tin United Stales regulars would have cowed the mob In a minute. We hope something from the Dick military bill, which brought the State militia lute the National tJuard. where there Is dln clpline and control, but It Is yet to be developed. Scandalous behavior marked the passage through North Carolina of some of the State troops en route to Manassas. Scandalous behavior hits marked the passage of the North Car olina State Guard en route home from some of Its encampmenta. Uncle Sam needs to fake hold of them and deal with them with his Iron hand. Mean while we would remind North Carolina, people who keep restaurants or frult stnnds near railroad stations that these troops who passed through here last Saturday and 8undny on their way North arc soon to return, and suggest to them that they lock their doors, If they do not rtnove their stocks, for no ordinary number of policemen can withstand this mob. A nice thing to say of the public1 defenders, but the arraignment Is Just. In yesterday's paper waa a card from Lieut. Fort, of a Georgia, company denying indignantly the report of th6 Greensboro correspondent of The Ob server of bad conduct of Georgia troops at Greensboro Sunday. We have no knowledge of the matter fur ther than that furnished by our cor respondent, supplemented by the fol lowing editorial from The Greensboro Record of Tuesday : "Georgia-. troops, of all others, should keep quiet when on n outing, yet tin conduct of these troop all along 'the road en route to Mannasstts. has been dlsgrace ful. At or near Charlotte they assaulted a negro passing on a wheel and put out an eye. besides almost killing him. While at this place Sunday they beat a negro man badly and as the train from which young tester hud fallen and was killed, passed out of town they threw a rock at one of ttie teachers of the A.. A M. Col lege and hurt him severely. It was no ticeable that the Texas troops were quiet and orderly, yet if put to the test no doubt they would never do as some of the Qeo'rgla troops did at Statesboro al low a moii to take two negroes-right from under-their eyes and burn them at the st:ke. Common decency would require the (iny KlB contingent to keep quiet. Rut this is the class that runs. quickest when real trouble comes." In the closing daya of the civil war Federal troops were not more dreaijed in several counties of this section than Wheeler' cavalry and Vaughan's cav alry, of the Confederate army, which were traveling about In detached bands, pillaging as they went. If Southeri. States' troops a re to be dreaded aa much as an army of Invasion whenever it Is known that they are to move, the sooner their organisations are disband ed the better. PERSONALS.

Greensboro. Sept. 7. Testerday, at o'clock, MIsa Lltitla Knight, an est! triable lady, 54 years of age, at the old Knight homestead, three mllea from Guilford College, waa sitting down with her two young nieces in the back yard peeling apples. She complained of feel ing alck. arose and went to her room, in a few momenta one of the girls fol lowed, to know If she could be of as sistance, and was horrified to find her lunt lying on a bed saturated with blood, a great gaping gash across her throat, her handa folded on her breast ind clasped In her clutch a razor cov ered with blood. The rorm lying so still was already in the embrace of death. The two young girls were the only ones on the premises, their father, Mr. Jabes Knight, having gone on business trip to Guilford College soon after breakfast. The nearest neighbor was a mile away. The tragedy of the suicide was nearly equaled by the awful experience of those children. Aa soon aa the news could be dlsseminuted. kind neighbors gathered, but It waa late In the afternoon before Mr. Knight had been apprised of the sad occurrence and hastened home. The deceaaed waa burled In the family graveyaroto-day, The only possible explanation of Miss Knight's suicide, as given by those who knew and loved her, la that she must have become suddenly deranged. She appeared in her usual health, mentally and physically, but within the past year she had suffered the bereavement of Ave members of her family, a moth er, two sisters, ana two nieces, wno naa died. Her mother, a bed-ridden Invalid, whom she had carefully nursed for 20 years, died a few months ago. William Brooks, white, was misbe having on a car going to LIndley Park yesterday afternoon, and the conductor put him off. On the return trip near where the eviction occurred, some one in the bushes threw rocks at the car, which was going fast down a grade. On the return trip to the purk, the con ductor took on Deputy Sheriff John Weatherly. As the point was reached. rocks began to fly again. The car stopped in short order, and Deputy Sheriff Weatherly charged the bushes, bringing out by' the collar Brooks. Reaching town, the prisoner waa in Justice Collins' office, waiting for a warrant to be filled out. He got tired of this and escaped by jumping out a second story window to the street be low. He was caught after a chase of four blocks. The board of aldermen have accepted the new fire engine ordered some time ago, and at a .special meeting thla morning, ordered the amount of $4,500 to be paid for It.
