BANK CIRCULATION. 1 The News asd Obsekveb has always advocated measures which it believed Would increase the facility of tank establishment and bank . operation. The great need of this section of the country, and it may be said of the 4 Jole country, sinco the exceptions are confined to comparatively small areasj is banking" facilities, more noney and cheaper money more of . tSie circulating medium, that is to say, slid a cheaper rate of interest at the 1 rinks. Enterprise of every kind ia hampered and prevented by the high rites the banks have to charge under te restrictions to which they are sub jected and the war taxes they have to jiy. We have wished to see them re lK)ve4 freed from the requirements ith respect to their circulation and fom the tax referred to; iii)t, ' however, before the peo'ple themselves were relieved from the burden of war taxation,, but along vith them. We have desired thut i e bnks and the people or the peo vfe first, rather, and then the banks, ilight be placed in the same boat, una wtm me same cuaiu. in orttor at both might be relieved at one oke. The national bank system was e- blished to provide a means of p!ac- ' t v J ai.- .1.1 iqg government uumw. j ue uiu Slate cbanks had the field. The plan wlis to utilize them for the new pur pose. The New York and Connteti iftsyBtems, with something, of the od Scotch system, were used 1 in the fiibbpration of the new idea. The Nw York system required the da Dsit of mortgages or bonds "or b A h trie tha aaka M MroritT. Ii was Ikwagmade ttWfttlof IhenewsHam,' Aplo wis'made for ajrery large ! number of ; government aecurities. $ lr n : At first the plan worked welL The government bonds were worth but 75 cents oh the dollar. Xd the course of time,? however, they became valued at par and are BOw sold at a big premium. It is not suith plain sailing for the banks as it 'Wis. Many of them prefer to ipsuo tad currency at all, MndiDg that tut-y can use the capital required for ihe waintenance of a currency to bter advantage in other ways. The b.us-r ines public euffers for money accdrd-. Ingly. ? : riuall banks -can hardly; be organ- ! ized by reason of the heavy d inands of the system, and it is small banks and many - of Ittsm ; that are needed. All the b.itks already established have Jto charge high rates of interefct and are re stricted to loans of ppecial- character . at that. The rate for money has been j 12, 15 acd even 18 per cent. It has been reduced, but is still generally 8 per per cent at least, and legitimate biisi hees enterprise cannot afford ) pay hioro than t ordinarily. : We desire to see the restriction ou the circulation removed aqd the iy' be made easy for our national bahks to lend at lower rateB. The further development of the South depetdi very largely on the securing of this end. No business, agricultural, rom tuurcial or industrial, can. stand Ihe fates at present prevailing. Urtler the reduction from the former eijor mou3 rates there has been some ad . Vance, but anything like a full devel opment depends on the securing of a rato that can be generally afforded. For these reasons, or for the rt a ton8, rather, thus hastily gugested, ! we favor tho bill now before Ihe House providing for the issue of cir culating notes to national banklug ' ossdeiations. Il will enable ,the banks, if they e.ee fit, to increase their Circulation ten per cent. That ia to ; 6ay, it will allow the banks to issue : 'dollar for dollar cf the face valuo of their bonds where they are how allow- ' ed to issue but ninety per cent there- i f. If enacted into law ii will in-; Urease the total circulation gome $21,- ! 000,000. This would afford a viry j perceptible relief. There would, be j 4n encouragement to the rhultipllca- j lion cf small banks and there would j result a tendency to lower rates, of j interest in the larger banks, and in all ; tho banks already doing ) business, i Anything in this line fhould bo en couraged by all means possible. We j hope the bill will become a; law. WHO SHALL, BK HIE CIIOICK FOR GOVEILNOR I I - The people are beginnirg to talk 4bout who is to be their next Gov ernor. No matter where you are and whom you meet, after the first salu tations are over, the main Question is sjpeedily put- "Arid who is the com ing man ?" - The iiewspapers ar also Stirring tho waters here and there, and soon these waters will cease to sim mer and the caldron will begirt to boil. Public opinion seems not i to have settled on any particular perion as our leader. v ' . 1 Many names have been mentioned, but there has been no crystalizatton d(f sentiment. Generally speaking the tone of the public is for the best man. 2 We need to have success.- We need to take no unnecessary risks. We need for a standard-bearer -that true and tried party man who is compe tent atid will be faithful, who will most surely poll the biggest vote. But as yet the fiDger of destiny does not point him out so certainly that all see him and by commcn consent Call his name. He ia around somewhere. But the public have not yet determ ited whether he is this one or tjpat one. The truth is we are embarraeSed tith our riches. We hav such a long 4Jist of worthy Dembcrats to choose from that we almost hesitate to begin to name them. Among those might be mentioned are Hon. K. R. Bridgeis, Maj. R. ?S. Tucker, Julian S. Carr, Efq Col. - A. B. Andrewn, Hon. Geo. Howard and John D. Williams, men of business, good, sterling, party men, worthy of tbe suffrages of the party and worthy of filling the highest executive office of the State; Hon. Geo. Davis, Hon. Daniel G. Fowle, Hon. A.. S. Mofri raon, Hon. W. T. Dortch, Hon. Joseph J. Davis, Col. R. F. Armfield, men whoEe eminent qualificatiOESDeed not be particularized; Thomas ;J. Jarvis, Walter Clark, Ch'arles il.

The ele ments of success at the polls are va rious. Popular confidence,; popuar respect, the merit of having been an active champion of party principles and of party success tend largely vto make tbe candidate a popular favorite. Fine oratorical powers help iuightily, ahd are worthy of being largely con sidered in selecting a candidate. But, generally speaking, a clea headed, practical man, who understands the principles of the platform" and ; is acquainted with the interests of the 'Itat can substitute clear statement for wit and move the hearts and $in -the approbation of the people al though unable to dazzle' them with brilliancy, j The Youghiogheny express, On the Southwest Lraijch of thePeunsyl vania railroad struck a buggy cross ing the tracks near YoungwOod, Pa., Wednesday night, and probably fa tally ur'-rad the occupants, Frafek Mullin, a eon of a wealthy coke oper ator, and Muss Zahniser, the daughter of a lumber merchant.

Aftef an experience of several years I am sjire many of our farmers do not work thei r farms wisely. They would think it a hardship to fail in j collecting a bad debt or to pay a few ; dollars to get several fgood "newspa- pen'," and yet I will say they lose j far moife by a careless, indifferent wav ! of farming. It is never known ho j ranch iil lost by pursuing: this plan. ' I believe the greatest mistake is in tne taunro to mate manure and ap ply it properly to the soil.. Our farm ers would be surprised to find how much nmnure or fertilizer they could make during a year at odd times whei they would be doing but little e'se. Tha cost of this experiment would le so little as fot to - be felt. The value of it would bo not less than one dollar for a lo horse load. It would not sell for this, but to the crop and the im provtnient to the land it is well worth the price. The farm would soon, in crease 'in value. Contentment and good living would be solid. The farmer rould soon begin to improve the appearance of his farm-houses, barns, etc., and have grain, hay and straw to sell and to keep Another defect is in the plowing, by not using a plow suited to the land, the result being that the field is in bfid fix for a crop. Jn preparing land for a crop deep plowing, dene before frost, is much be best. Before sowing' or planting the manure should be broad cast over this land and plowed in. The harrow then ought to come on. This being done, the crop will stand a rea sornble.amount of dry or wet weatfcer with but liitlo injury, and, too, the crop of corn is about half made be fore planting. It will not pay any farmer ; to plaut corn ; on poor land If a calculation ie made he : will come out in debt. Care should be taken in planting corn on landnot easily injured. This can be dona by laying off a few acres here and there over the farm. It ' is rather bad farming to pasture the land after a crop is taken off and then make another crop on the land the nexjfc year. All matter left on the land afer taking the crop should be turned under while green. To do this I take a steel two-horse plow and cut about 15 inches with an ordinary team well fed.Bef ore sowing or plant ing I prepare as above. This plowing does not cost any more than the poor. In fact by keeping my plow in good condition with wrought paint &c, I can plow more and with great er ease to my team. Turning land in the spring the first time I regard ; as an injury. Also the little turning plow used in jnaking corn is not good for the, land or the crop. After1 preparing the land as stated I use the whole shovel ia cultivating. I have land in cultivation which has not besn . in corn for:five years and some which has been, in corn for twenty years. By this plan I try to improve the whole in fertility and product. I do not pasture any land where crops of any kind are made and do not keep much more stock than is useful, and most of this I feed the year round. I get well paid for all the forage eaten in manure and litter, keeping them all under shelter in the - winter aqu ai mgnt during tne sum mer. It is far better to feed forage than to sell it. " The land has a claim on all of it and it is not wisdom to sell it and have it taken elsewhere. Let our farmers look to their inter ests'. With our good climate, timber and minerals, added to nice farms and and good crops, we will soon have a country equal to any. G. H. N. POISTS FROM PITT. Pelliiea In the Pawltco Rtgton, Gbetlixk, N. C, Jan. Il, 1888. Superior Court convened here on Monday , and large crowds are in attend ance eac day, notwithstanding the inclement weather the first two days. The present term is for the trial . of criminal gases only, and the solicitor's docket ia large heavier than usual. No capital case is to be tried. Judge Avery is presiding, and the court business is moving on satisfac torily. .Judge Avery is recognized all over the State as one of the ablest, if not th ablest, judge that rides the circuits, and here in Pitt his ability is admitted by all. . - Col. Worthington is managing his docket i4 a way pleasing in the sight of peaceable and law-abiding citizens. The resut will be that this county will send; up her. full quota of peni tentiary birds and the county jail will be wjell stocked with convicted criminals,' The solicitor has to con tend with the ablest and most astute lawyers in his district right here in Greenville. ! Latham, Sugg, $kinner, A. M-: Moore, G- W. Johnston and a few others, are shrewd ajpd formidable practitioners; but the Colonel meets them with that spirit of J gallantry and courage that marked Lis course in less peaceful days' ' - . Congressman Latham is at his poet of duty i$ Washington City, and his absence fom court is quite noticea ble. He is an attorney of unusual force, learning and brilliancy, and per haps the-most eloquent advocate in Eastern Carolina. ! Pohuca is again uppermost down here, andjdiscussion of candidates hae begun. Xctive work is ahead if the banner of Democracy is to wave in 'triumph at the next election in the State. ' Thorough and complete or ganizatio must be effected,: and this should ntyt be put off until the guns of the enemy are already heard and felt in' the Democratic camp. . With the partjr firmly united all will be well. Wjth the right sort of a leader there will; be no cause for alarm. Tim convention must use wisdom and cau tion in selecting a standard-bearer. The opinion of doubt is expressed as to whether or not either of the gentlemen no 77 prominently spoken of for the gubernatoaial nomination could fil the requirements of the case. Itimay be that the beloved Jarvis will have to become our chiaf- tain and lead tho hosts to victory. 1 But in the east there is a man that I could till the bill beyond ia " doubj. Hon. JarjieB Edwin Moore, bf Martin U'ounty, ould make a canvass notable ! in the annals of North Carolina poli- tics. Mo could arouse the people to a 6enE0 of their patriotic duty, and ; have the jrank and file of the party I enthusiastic "in their support of the ticket. Hjn eminent ability and quali- ricutidns are unquestioned, ahd ho is a gentlemafi cf tne highest character 1 and Lert SDhrittian virtues. Such a man should be considered. Gretn-vtUe is quite a business place It now besfcts of k poprStOffn exwtfl- ing two thousand. It is a town of steady growth. Improvements are go ing on daily and it is destined to be come que of the important business towns of the State. The prospect of an early completion of the Scotland Neck branch road to this place is very br-'ght. ThU has a stimulating effect upon the people "a"nd they are de lighted. Greenville needs railroad facilities, and it is hoped that the fu ture in this respect will not be a dis appointment. Dr. C. J O'Hagan, a prince amoDg gentlemen and one of the most schol arly men, as well as one of the finest physicians in the State, was sum moned j'esterday by telegram to at tend Dr. Frank Rountree, of Kinston, who is very ill with pneumonia. The Doctor left this morning. Novrs Homo. Two CrU Fight l Gulon. bhelby Aurora. Two school girls. Misses White and Grayson, of Gaston, rejoicing in "sweet sixteen" and a wealth of curls and love, had a quarrel about a young man which each claimed as her ideal of love and perfection. From words to blows and hair pulling the transi tion was easy and the two began cn the top of a steep hill to fight. They grappled and fell, then they began rolling down the hill with accelerated motion, holding each other by the hair and body. Then the school teacher, Warlick, separated thecom batants at the bate of the hill. Soon t he tall and golden-haired Miss White gave her rival a kick with her dainty foot, which struck the short Miss Grayson in the shoulder. Thus ended the combat of these heroines over a sweet heart in Gaston county. "Holr." The word "Hoosier," nickname for Indiana folks, was originally Hussar. We have seen it credited to the pro nunciation of Colonel Letnanowski, which is a mistake. Old Colonel Vigo, au ItaliaD, for whom is named the county of which Terre Haute is the capital, used to say, "I am a Hussar," pronouncing it Hooshar, and from this by an easy transformation came Hoosier. San Francisco Alia. Dn't let that cold of yours run on. You think it ia a light thing. But it may run ino catarrh. Or into pneumonia. Or oon Bumption. Catarre is disgusting. Pneumonia is dangerous. Consumption ia death it self. The breathing apparatus must be kept healthy and clear of all obstructions and offensive matter. Otherwise there is trouble ahead. All the diseases of these parts, head, nose, throat, bronchial tubes and lungs, can be delightfully and entirely cured by the use of Boschee's German Syrup. If you don't know this already, thousands and thousands of people can tell you. They have been cured by it, and "know how it is, themselves.'' Bottle only 75 cents. Ask any druggist.
