This ought to be a terrible warning th New Jersey prohibitionists. "N". Y. Herald. Bishop Newman, of the Methodist Church says: "Grover Cleveland has been the hard e t working man we ever hod in the White House, and he has left v ry thinsr c eaued up. His blunders have b en blunders aeaiust himself. He must be set down as -one of our beat Presidents. The adjournment of the Legislature was quite interesting from a general cane-presentation, resolution offering and speWh-makinar stand-point. Both the President of the Senate and Speaker of the House, as well as several of the other xheers ot both Houses, were pre- v seated with goM-hcacfod canes. Four states are thei iavorea enes now. Harrison, Windom, Noble and Busk are all natives of Ohio. Blaine and Wanamaker. the two: , mo3t corrupt' members are from Pennsylva nia; Tracy and Miller are natives of New York, while the Vice President Morton and Procter are natives of Ver mont, i Five were Generals in the Yan kee army and five'are lawyers. Wil. Star. - Well, the Republicans are now in charge of the National Government. and already the offices are going through a change of hands. In fact some Dem ocrats are asked to resign bytelegraph, while others are informed "that their places are wanted by the "faithful ones'' of the 'grand old party.' That's all right, the offlces belong to the victori ous party, and this paper stands to-day just exactly where it has always etood upon tlie question, 4iTo the victors be long the spoils." All we ask of the ' powers ; that be is, that no sorry it en we put in office down this way. Tim Legislature adjourned sine die on last Monday. Duringjts ses sion of GO days 878 bills were enrolled. The stock law bill, introduced by Hon. C. M. Cooke, relative to Franklin coun ty, and: which passed the .House, was tabled in the Senate, and the law stands iust as it did before. The maiority of Legislature were certainly agreed upon two "things vii : not to make any new s oek laws or to repeal any old ones. A great majority of the Legislature were formers, and while inexperienced in such woik as law making as was at first mani- ficsted,! before the body adjourned the' had done much good work. We think the greatest good the Legislature lias done the State Us that of doing no more than it did do as too much Legislation is very: often dangerous. The INews-Obscrver speaking of the new election, law says: The election law of the present As sembly makes the registration nioie ac curate,; tends to more iuliv prevent re peating and keet the State and federal ejections separate, so that federal super visors Can supervise that with which they have to do without interfering: with 'that which docs not concern them in the least, jit lis fair all round. It is, ur to- white and black alike. It tends to the preserviition of the purity of the ballofr- lK)x. It will aid in the maintenance of law and order. It establishes no quali- Jicauoa educational or any other kind. It simply throws about the existing law the additional safeguards we have indi cated. S There is no reason for objection to it on any ground whatever- The wiid alarm attempted by the republican members ot the legislature with respect to it was simply a mearungless scare crow, raised in most cases, we venture to say, without the understanding of the measure. BOTH SIDES. On our first page tlus week we pub- . lish an Article from the Xew York Her ald, in rhich that paper gives, from - its standpoiut, some of the reasons why the last election resulted as it did. It claims that the South was too prominent in the management of affairs. ' Whether ; this is so or not, we do not propose to say. but we publish '.the following, from the Wilnungton Star, " which is very plainly put, and to. the point 2 We can't see any sense, justice or pro priety in the Dem. papers censuring the ablest Southern men iu the Congress for being leaders. , 'Brains . will . assert themselves. Why should not Carlisle, Mills, and the other really able and ex perienced men in the House from South ern Stales ne the leaders s They- are ' equal toi the foremost, confessedly. . The DemocrftCs from the 'South constitute quite two-tiiirds of . the- "whole - Demo- cratic force. We despise that 7 syco phancy that would be eternally playing mto me lianas 01 ; is ownern ' prejucuce and that would keep the South down for fear of offending.' Let the able -men of the South stand up boldly for principles. and if their superior' qualifications make . them leaders let them shoulder all re- ? eooasibillty and lead h 1 ) way to o enuuie, Lm not to reduce - unmisfakahle tax refor lic surplus by removing tax on cigars, . ciearsttes. cheroots, snutf&c, andlcar iag the present oppressive tax upon all necessaries ot lite, but a reform that is. in keeping with reiterated Democratic promis s and that will really furnish sensible, important, real relief to the toiling masses the ' more --than jforty- nve millions of Americans whov oelong" to this class. - : The cry is that the Democrats were defeated because the South wast promi nent in the Congress. "What nonsense! If the Bads male capital because the South now and then sends a really able man to' the House, who is quite a match for the foremost of the Nor them leaders, what of it? Shall the South grovel in the dust to placate fanaticism ? Shall it send only dullards to the Congress lets perforce they should create a "prejudice hurtful to the South. The South "is far too apt to elect to high places men of small mental force and less stages man- shipCfo.' its own good and the good of th country. We ore for standing by sound common-sense political economy, and electing the ablest, best equipped, soun dest Democrats to the Federal House. Then if th w show themselves able to lead, let them do it and trust in God for the best results of the Union. In the history of this country the House lias not been presided over by an abler officer than John G. Carlisle, of Kentucky; unless another eminent Ken- tuckiai n tie iftt, Mr. Clay, be the one exception. As to Mr. Mills, ho is a man ot very marked ability,' and with Mr. Carlisle knows more about tariff laws and inequalities, ithan any other men hi the House. They are Demo crate who fight on the-line-' of principle and not paltry, contemptib'e expedien cy. They are the men with backbone and grip, like Mr. Clevelaud, and form ed a strong support for'that brave, hon es b President. We can honor such men for they are men of force, earnestness, of brain ppwer, of convictions, and know how to lead and how to build up a party on a solid foundation. OUKJSTAT15 CONTliMPOUA ICIES. Nay, we find that for every political and moral reform our.Stato is indebted lo the Democratic party a party that lias shown itself the especial champion of the people in every contest with ex travagance, fraud and corruption in the high places. Fayetteville Observer. " The prehx "lion." nas become so common as to carry with it little mean ing. Every member bf our Legislature may be changed at each election, and thus two hundred more be added bien nially to our list of Honorable?. We would prefer, that tlus were not so, and that the title 4Hoa." might be conferred by some competent authority, only up on those who deserve it b' character aud action. Asheville Citizen. We boast of a higher civilization, a purer Christianity, a tenderer humani ty, and permit a dozen of these brutal izing exhibitions every year. When a man is condemned to death he should be taken at once to the State's prison and there executed with as much hu manity as possible, and as privately as is consistent with a proper verification of the deed. Let us have no more of these debasing spectacles. Let the law be changed at once. Goldsboro Ar- The North Carolina Supreme Court has just rendered a decision defiivng the homestead law of this State. The ques tion presented to the Court was what use a homesteader may make of his homestead ? The court determined that he could use it as such property is or dinarily used for the comfort aud up- j-port of the family, but its value must not be impaired by such treatment as would be in the nature of waste. Mon roe Enquirer. The Alliuncs Movement. The Brunswick (Ga.) Daily Times talks as follows in regard to the Alli ance: v The Farmers' Alliance is one of the most rapidly growing organizations in this, country, and is destined at no dis tant day to prove a powerful engine in the politics of the nation. While osten sibly the alliance abjures all politics, "still there is no mistaking its. tendency, and the way men of political ambition are working in, is a sure indication of what must sooner or later crop out. VV e may possibly be mistaken in this. We only hope that we are: but the his tory of every grange movement this world has ever known but goes to prove the assertion. There are many more whose hair is not yet gray that will re member the rapid rise of the Georgia grangers, and their wild eflort to estab lish a direct trade with Europe, that sky rocKet or prosperity that shot up on pa per to fall with a thud of disappoint ment. : We are making no objection to the present move. Heaven only knows that the farmers of Georgia need relief and everything they can possiblv wrest from monopoly. They have had a hard,hard struggle since the war, and hke men m quick sand, ths more they have strug gled, the more they have sunken into debt, until there are few homes over which there hangs no mortgaged The press of this country should aid the ag riculturist in every way possible, and should continually ring in their ears the importance of keeping their organization SA1 it . . n m - -. wumn inemseives, ana out oi the nanus of designing men and politicians. : " ' LOCAL MATTER- MaU Iors. ; ' --p, -, , , T; i .,. By request we publish the following law in regard to mad dogs: ; .. - "Section 2499; of tlie Code 'reads: "Whenever the owner of any , dog shall know, or have' good reason to believe, that his dog, or any dog belonging ; to any person under hia control, has been bitten by a mad dog, and shall neglect or refuse immediately to kill the same, he shall lorieit ana pay the sum of fifty dol lars to hirai who wHl sue therefor; and tlie offender shall be liable to pay all damages which may be sustained by any one. hi his orooerlv or oe.rsnn hv : thi J "te of any dog, belonging as aforrsai-L i anf shalll)e guilty of a - miedemeanor, i ana nnofl no more inan niuy coiLars - or anprisoned not more thaD tliirtydays; 1 r T . . j . 11 ma 1 The Offices. We hear much talk as to who r will jj get thwand that office.: It is thought by a good many that Gen. P. B. Hawk ins stands a good chance for ths Collec tor's place,jand that John Willian to i will get a position of some kind in Washington City. John has always had a hankering, after city life, you know. Maj. Bullock is talked of. for postmaster at Franklinton and it is ru mored that Nat Macon wants the Louis burg post-office. This last ( rumor, ia probably unfounded, but there isv no telling. When a man once gets it , in hia head that he ought to be an offlee bolder, whether anybody else thinks so o: not, there is no stopping him. v i -a- Why Guanos are Higher. The question lias beon often asked why the prices of guanos are higher this year than last. Up to this date we have been unable to answer, but the follow ing which we get from the Bulletin of the N. C. Agricultural Experiment Sta tioa explains, we think, the main reason : The iucredienls for manufacturing fertilizers are all higher than the corres ponding period of last year. Not only has there been a material advancement in these prices, but iu other materials and rates connected with the fertilizer trade as well. Material for bags has ad vanced do and 40 cents- per ton more than for last year. Ocean freights have advanced materially, causing the crude material, kainit for example, to advance in cost in addition to the increase of the price of that article. . The freights, too, add to the cost of shipment of manufac tured goods to our ports. The fertil izing ingredients with but few excep tions are higher than last season, rang ing from 15 to 30 per cent. Supporting Local Papers. ThtfBaltimore Manufkcturers' Record, one of the soundest papers published, says. Somc business men seem to be inca pable of appreciating the fact tliat every good local paper does its town ten times as much good as it is ever paid for. Men having a large interest iu town and deeply concerned in its progress, of ten try to see how little they can do for their own local papers. The papers of the South are to-day doing far more for the good of their couutry thau they ever receive credit for. Day alter day and week after week they are telling of its advantages of soil, climate and min erals and of its progress. The ticts which they give are widely published hi other papers, and thus the good work is carried far beyond their immediate circle of readers. If the merchants and other business men of the community could only know as. do the publishers, how constantly the load papers were advertising their claims abroad and advertising it to great ad vantage so far from taking credit to themselves in the patronage which they extend as if they were making a dona tion, they would gladly double and thribble their support assured that in all esses they were getting i handsome equivalent for the money expended." Street ImprovcMenss. Street Cornmissioner Hale is doing good work on the streets, lie is the right man iu the right place, and we are glad that the "city fathers" are having the ditches cleaned out before the warm weather sets in. One of the nest things that has been done along this line is the cutting of the large ditch from, Xash street to the river. New Meat 3Iarket. Me-tsrs.

New Town OrdUiauccs, At a recent meeting of the commis sioners o! the town of Lomsburg tlie following ordinances were adopted: Xo person shall sweep, throw or de posit any garbage or trash in the streets of the towa of Louisburg, under a pen alty of one dollar for each offense.
