men are at work. Nelson Morris re
ceived a dispatch from the east saying
that some one down there, whose name
he would not give, would send 300

patch from a slaughter firm in the east
which has been killing beef for htm,
which says that they have killed 300
head of cattle today, and oan double that
number if he wishes it. About 213 of
the men at work in the yards are new

usual, and all the approaches were lined
with pickets.

ball at : the union stock yaxda during
the morning. About 5,000 of tho old
employees of Armour, Swift and the

pany were congregated there for the
purpose of being paid off. It was deemed
more advisable to let them get their
pay there than to have it done at the
firms' offices. Besides a great throng of
strikers, there were thousands of their
friends. The crowd was a little more
turbulent than yesterday, atd Gen. FUs-
simmons has put an extra foroe of men
near the town hall, to be ready in case
of any disturbance. An afternoon paper
taya: A "boycott baa already been de
clared by the general exeoutive board of

I have been interested in reading the
communications of President Battle, of
the university of North Carolina, and
Colonel Saunders, on the question how
Duplin county received its name,
and more recently President Battle's
communication on the origin of the
name Tar river. It is time that suoh
points in the history of the State were
made the subjeot of investigation, and
tho results given a printed existenoo.
It should have been done during the
lives of tho8e rwho were contemporary
with the early history of this State.
Some years ago I entertained an ill
denned notion of essaying a historical
description of Stokes county; an ill
defined notion, for 1 did not decide
upon the form in which the results
would be moulded. 1 thought of pro
paring the matter in the ordinary form
of a history. Then again I had some
fancy for writing a novel, the scene of
whioh would be located here, into the
web of which I would warp my mate
rial relating to the history of the
county. In pursuing thia object I
have eollected much memoranda to
aerve for material for this pur-
Eose. Amongst my notes I
ave one on the Dan and Roanoke
(Moratue) river, which cost me many
hours of investigation, and as tho sub
ject possesses, to my mind, more than a
local interest, I herein give the result,
though I do not regard the subject as
exhausted.
What is now called the Roanoke river
was formerly known as the Moratue,
forming, as Byrd describes it, "all that
part of the Roanoke below the great
falls towards Albemarle Sound;" the
falls being situated thirty five miles be
low the fork of the river aeoording to
this authority. The tribe of Moratucs,
aeoording to an old map in my posses
sion, had their location in the vicinity
of the Roanoke river. I am indebted
for a kind and "interesting communica
tion from Maj. Powell, of the Ethnolog
ical Bureau ef the Smithsonian Institu
tion, Washington, a distinguished ex
pert in the languages and history of our
Indians, in which he says : "This bu
reau has considered the Moratucs as of
Algonkian a took, and that their name
bears much resemblance tc the Powhatan
word for enemy." The Algonkian
family embraced, among others, the
powerful tribes of the Powbataus and
Shawnees in the South. There is no
authoritative ground for associating the
Moratucs with this locality (Stokes
county) , nor was the Dan, ss
far as this investigation fan pene
trated, ever called the Moratue river,
this name, as we have shown, having
been limited to the waters of what is
now oallel the Roanoke. I know of no
written authority for referring the ori
gin of the name Dan river to the word
Danapahaw, who is said to have be n a
ohief of the tribe of Sauras who had
their domain in this region. Udeed
Byrd in his Narrative says, when they
came on the south branoh of the Roan
oke they called it Dan river, and in the
absence of any authoritative atatement
to the contrary it is, to my mind, more
reasonable to suppose the name was sug
gested to his mind by the same fanoy for
scriptural names whioh led him to name
a soope of Rockingham county the Gar
den of hilen.

VKWS BY WIBB.
Washington, Nov. 10. Representa
tive Wellborn, of Texas, who is one of
the ablest and most experienced parlia
mentarians in the House, was asked by
an Associated Preea reporter today,
what effect the oontest over Carlisle's
seat, should there be a contest, would
have upon the candidacy for the speaker
ship of the House? Wellborn replied:
"Suoh a contest would furnish no reason
whatever why ' arlisle should not be
the speaker of the Fiftieth Congress.
Rule ten, of the House of Representa
tives reads, 'Ualefs otherwise ordered
by the House, the speaker shallappoint,
at the commencement of teaoh Congress,
the following standing committees,' &o.
The list includes the cemmittee on elec
tions and all standing committees of the
House. The rules of the present House
cannot by their own foroe fix methods
of procedure it subsequent Congresses,
nevertheless by unbroked usage the
new House, as preliminary to its perma
nent organizttioD, adopts the rules of
the present House. Suoh, I take
it, will be the course in the next
House, and rule ten will thus
control the constitution of the oommit-
tees in the fiftieth Congress. Should
there be a contest over Carlisle's seat,
the House itself will in some suitable
way select a committee on elections, and
thus Carlisle will be relieved of any
possibility of embarrassment on that
score, lo hold that Sheobs contest
with Carlisle disqualifies the latter for
speaker,oonduces to results illogical an i
absurd. It such a holding were followed,
the unties oe and power of the chosen
leader of the dominant party in the
House could be effectually 6b.rusb.ed at
any time by springing the oonteated
eieotion case, no matter how absolutely
devoid it might be of merit. V

of the excessive early rains and the long
continued drought of the later season is
apparent in the roduoed production.
The following per-oentage of several

the Eastern States exceed 30 bushels,
Pennsylvania nearly as much, and the
Southern States generally have reduced
the rate of yield.
The potato produot is nearly the same

duct of 163,000,000 bushels.
The buckwheat crop makes a yield of
about 13 bushels per acre, promising a

The apparent production of tobtoco is
at a rate slightly exceeding the average
of 700 pounds per acre, or about 485,

' The old saying that "an ounce of
prevention is worth a pound of oure" is
well worth the consideration of the hor
tioulturist. One of the greatest mis
takes made by those who give much or
little attention to the crowing of fruits,
is the almost universal acceptance of the
idea, that when a tree is planted it will
'Hake care of itself." That a fruit
tree, whioh ia shamefully neglected all
tb rough its life, and in many eases
oruelly treated, should yield any pro
duot to ita owner, is evidence of a differ
ent spirit from that which, under similar
circumstances, actuates human beings.
. Perhapa we might say that it does not
possess malioious and revengeful feel
ings, which too often characterise
beings much higher in the scale of ex
istence; that it is concerned only with
development into a beautiful and well-
proportioned tree; with opening its mil
lions; of richly colored petals offering
bread and sweets to inseots as a reward fir
bsnefioial services; with perfuming the
air whioh its thankless owner inhales,
and in each recurring autumn of its life;
with bearing well rounded fruit. The
Creator has given it a place in nature
and it strives with inherent tendencies
to develop from the seed the harmoni
ous, fruitful, well rounded and suoeers-
ful existenoo for whioh it was intended.
Almost with human appreciation of
kindness does it respond generously to
benefits received. It puts on its livery
of gaily colored flowers, and opens its
store of sweets, to attraot insects, whioh
it has found from past expenenoe aids
in its fertilisation. First, in the wild
state! it developed the fruit about the
seeds that birds and other animals might
eat it, and in return for the food would
bear the seeds far away to accomplish
distribution and multiplication of the
species.
' When offered cultivation and a better
quality of food by man, it quickly re
sponded by returning the large and de
licious fruits of the cultivated varieties.
When all this has been accomplished,
it is unjust to poke it into the
back yard or a fence corner,
to be the "catoh all" for all sorts of
things, and to struggle with forest or
shade trees which deprive it of sunlight
and nourishment. When planted in the
orchard, how little care is taken to keep
animals from running over it while it v
vet young, making wounds in the bark
biting off the principal twigs, thus in
suring disease, dwarfed and ill-nropor-
tioned growth, if death does not oome
to the rescue. In the cultivation of
crops in the orchard, carelessness gener
ally results in breaking off patches of
bark from many, if not all the trees; por
tions of the harness catch against tie
limbs and skin them. Often in gather
ing the fruits, limbs arenroken and tha
bark bruised. WA11 of these accidents
tend to induce diseased and unsightly
trees. But this is not all. A bruise or
break invites the attack of certain in
sects, generally of various species of
beetles. The eggs are deposited that
the young may feed upon the diseased
dead portions of the tree. This aggra
vates the trouble and the enemy pushes
his way onward, by his injuries prepar
ing in advance other parts of the
tree for his table, until at last the tree
is hopelessly infested. The majority of
the wood and bark-boring Coleopterous
larvae feed only on diseased trees. These
inseots are not so easily reached as the
phytophagus species and are some of the
most oiffioulf to destroy. It is believed
that the peach bark beetle (Soolytua
rugulosus) never attacks a healthy tree
except in rare instanoes it mar be, but
that it infests trees that have been pre
viously diseased by pear-blight or some
other cause.
The best way, then, to fight the ma
jority of borers in our orohards, is to
keep our trees so healthy that the enemy
will find no vulnerable points for his
shaft. By this means not only will we
get rid of many of the annoying pests,
but our trees will be healthier, more
productive, and consequently more
profitable G. F. Atkqtson.
