ple destroyed at Sabine Pass. Of the
colored persons drowned thirty bodies
are still missing, while ail but fifteen of
the whites have been recovered and in
terred. It is thought that some of the
missing bodies are stuck in the mud,
which is several feet in depth on the bot
tom of Sabine bay and in the river front

stood. Measures for the relief of the
distressed are being pushed at Houston,
Galveston and other cities a The Gal

be circulated tomorrow. .
The members ot the local committees
say the calamity grows with eaoh hour.

distressing than was at first thought
possible. Mr. Laaker, of the oommit

finally fired his Winchester rills into a

that all the Pinkerton men joined in the

Tat Judicial Ticket.
To in Votus or Nosth Caxouna :
Raliiqh, N. C, Oct. 19, 1886.
As propriety doe not permit candi
date for judicial omoe in this State to
plead for their election by ipeeohes or
writing, I beg to say a word in behalf
of the democratic candidate on our
judicial ticket. Our sand ida tea for
Congress, for the legislature, for the of-
iu nf ailtMitAF mriA rnr Atha Mniuira
I T0U wtat democracy has done
for the State and why
eontinued-that it
debt; that it
its rule shall be
has settled oar
restored our
I yjredit; that it hag doubled our mileage
of railways; that it has given us honest
government;that it ha reduoed our taxes;
that it baa given us good schools, that
it ha giron us peace at home and re
soectabilitv abroad. Ac, Ac. These
rirwwuiuej - nut zava9 av ww www i
facts ire all true and are a .ufficient
i v i -cc : ii j .
reason why democratic offioers in all de
partments shall continue to aery us.
Nothing is more important to any peo
ple than a pure, fearless and able judi
ciary. Suoh a bench we now have in
North Carolina and the voters of the
btate must see to it that, this blessing is
continued to us. It is needless to do more
than pronounce the names of our candi
dates for the supreme court, the jurists
who now constitute that oourt, Smith,
Ashe and Merrimon; their integrity,
courage, wisdom and legal learning is
conceded by all. Their industry is a mar
vel to the profession. Nor need anything
be said in praise cf Avery and Graves,
who have served many years as superior
oourt judges and are known and re
spected throughout our borders; nor of
Connor, Clark, Uoykin and Montgom
ery, whose servioe has not been so long,
but whose praises are in the months of
the people in every oounty in whioh
they have held oourt. The only candi
date we present, who has not already
served on the bench, is James H. Mer
rimon, of Buncombe, and his high
-character at home, hidbi.ity as dis
played in our State senate and his large
and successful practice in the mountain
counties and in the supreme court are
sufficient guaranty of his competency
and: fitness for the office
I would not criticise the gentlemen
whose names are presented a their op
ponents; but I hssird nothing in saving
that no well informed man should hesitate
in making a choice between the two
tickets, and that some of these gentl
men are unknown to the legal profession
even outside of the counties whose
courts they attend.
At one time it seemed probable that
out ticket would have no opposition;
but opposing candidate have been
named, and it in the duty of our friend
to see to it that by no accident, any one
of our candidates is defeated. And it
I is due to them, from all law-loving
Koters that they be complimented by
tne largest vote ever given ior any can
didates in the State.

Rauioh, N. C, Oat. 19
Two weeks ago the local editor of the
Smithfield Hef aid made the statement
that the weighing of cotton in Raleigh
explained the marked difference in price
between the Smithfield and the Raleigh
markets, and in the last issue of his pa
per he eays that he had not charged any
one with
eueaunjr. xnese statements
ppear somewhat contradictory. Cer
tainly from some eause or other they
nave had no eneet, for the fanners of
Johnston continue to find the best
market for their cotton without the aid
o the Smithfield Herald. This should
not cause the young editor to be un
happy. Quite the reverse should be
the result The Smithfield market for
middling cotton is quoted at 8&
The Raleigh market 8t8. Therefore
