TnE lliileijjh correspondent of the

per that ?ihetiuani'ial report of Dur-
ham shows the town entirely out of
debt and f 3,000 in the treasury.
They are now fearing a surplus
problem.". No danger of a problem,
Rood sir. If you could but see some

would know where we could put it
to do the most good.
Thx attack upon Judge Fowle is
. winning new converts. The paper
that published the attack has been
brought over. Hearit: "The Land
mark" warms to any man who is
slandered, and it is very clear that
Judge Fowle has been. Our cor
respondent "Democrat" sees the mat
. ter the same way, and, having ac
cepted rumor for fact, now has the
manliness to publish a card disavow
ing his belief of the charges which,
with the best of motives, he gave
currency to last week. It is time
now for these slanders tostop. Judge
Fowle should be defeated fairly or
not at all. We believe that if only
the truth is told on him he cannot
be defeated, for the people, remem
bering his party -services and ad
miring his brilliant talents, are with
him. The "Landmark" is in sym
pathy with them. It is time that
justice were done this man. There
is no occasion for promoting lag
gards, bomb-proofs or new recruits
over the head of this party veteran.
He has earned his reward in half a
dozen campaigns of extraordinary
power and effectiveness. Why not
gWeitto him this year?" ,
' Manly words.
SuriTOR Vance, in the nineth
article of his series on the "Needs of
the Nation," contributed to the Bal
timore "Sun," discusses as a phen
omenon of great importance the
tendency at the present time of capi
talists engaged in production to com
bine to fleece the public with the
help of laws made at their instance
Tbey act together to get unthinking
or corrupt legislators to frame tariffs,
grant charters and pass all sorts of
laws to enable them to exact tribute
from the people. The surest way to
accumulate whealth, it is found, is
to get things so fixed by law that
part of the earnings of the millions
most fall into one's lap. Hence the
prosperity of the sections and States
which are fatored by the tariff.
Hence, too, the wealth of trusts,
railroads and other unregulated
monopolies which fatten opon the
people under the protection of the
law. Monopoly and restriction are
now the rule. Freedom of trade
among ourselves is almost wholly
lost, the price and movement of al-
terery necessary of life being
dicfikil by some soulless corpora
tion, trosvpool or association. The
reform of the tariff will helptp.les-

It is stated in the Wilmington "Mes
senger," by the Raleigh co ranon
dent, that the depomtorshave reach

their receipts after the adjustment

ceiver says there ought to be a first

A New Yobk electric light line
man, while making some necessary
repairs Friday, touched what he sup
posed was a dead electric cable. The
cable was not dead, but full charged
with the electric current, and the
result was that the unfortunate line
. man was dead in an instant It is
supposed that the wire he took hold
of on the supposition that it was
dead was crossed at some point by a
live wire, thus diferting the fatal
current '
