(District papers w ll pleawe cdpj)- T negro Republicans of ILcLi gan have declared for Alger and en dorsed the Republican party. This ' vastly important but Jruo. ' ; la We take the liberty of printing a persona letter from Co!. 8auners, aa it presents a picture of Southern life of today which well deserves to be perpetuated on the printed page, ajid which without doubt will be it tresting to our readers, j J The case of the English clergytaan Vfho was called by a New York con gVegation and whose callers are charged with violating the statute-for bidding the importation of contract lsbor because of their action in the nremiaes is ud in the courts. . Its islue will be interesting generally. flu immigration convention at H ot Springs seems to have teen very largely attended and by men higfc in railroad circles, ia religious place and inlstate. We trust it will tend to brng this way such a class of immi grants as will aid us materially in developing the vast natural resources of ur section. t tVt have a copy of "Cheap Books and Good Books" by Brander liat theWs, being a revision and amplinca tioi of an "Opeii Letter" published ixf 'tbe Century" for December, 1887"; and of an address delivered be fore tjhe Congregational Clnb of New York 1 on the evening of ( February 20t,1888, all in behalf of intertia tiooal copyright, j . j 9 j WnLMrsoTon is about jto' b8 'ground for a street railway which; ia to lid, first-class in all 'respects. It is advancing on all lines of im provement and its progressiveness is artery pleasant thing for patri o io North Caroliniins tot observe. It is it charming old city aa wall as a very important one commerci Hy and one folly up wiih the spirit of the time; " i W have a copy of the "1887 Coin Pack" with the compliments of the American Grocer, from which it ap pears that there were packed in 1887 2,311,424 cases of sweet corn, againt 1,704,?35 in 1886, and 1 082,174 in 1885. The business is thus seen to be immense. At preBsnl "the out look it certainly very encouraging to packet, so much so that it has in this estimation of many pnt a prembm ion th.ir making extra efforts tj in crease the pack of 1888." j ; Wa Jvould respectfully call attea tion ,tp the "premiums paid on the bondalbooght in by the Secretary of the Treasury as reported elsewhere! On 4 r- cents 126, 125, 12b and sd On was paid, so that it appears thai ihe Republican party, after j getting matters iato such shape that it ii necessary to call in the bonds, have to provided ' that their friends the" bondjelders shall secure from the hard earnings of the peop'e a bonce of twenty-five per cent. It is simply iniqulicut. jj Th bill legaliiing marriage with a deceased wife's lis er has again passed the British Hoose of Commons and ia agajn before the House of .'Lords,:; whereat has often been before to be defeafiad invariably. The majority 9 - mer, fthd was very slender indeed at' the lat test of strength, bo that it is no V hooped again that it will be swept ! away putireiy. xu jrnnce oi nates has long been pronounced in favor of the measure and public sentiment has been growing rapidly in tha'. dirtc tion. I i be main opposition to the bill has eme from the Bishops whose objecfons are based on religious giounUs exclusively. JfiR. RXRBOwt' Tall act. Mr. Burrows, of Michigan, took some old flights in that speech of his ia the Blouse Tuesday on the larin. ne maae some wua state ments He rejoiced that there is "a new industrial South," "full of hope and ourage," '"smiting the earth With ihf fettered .hands while foun. tains of unmeasured wealth gush forth fit her feet.V Oh, of couise. His heart warms to this section nec essarily. . The heart of the average Republican . has a habit of doing that sort of thing, we all know to our cost. Mr. Burrows warned gentle men o tne South that the Democratic measure of tariff reform would do them rfo good. He tried to make it appear! that it would arrest the invest ment of capital in this part of the Union and bring our industries tio a standstill. He was sophistical. He apparejitl j forgot that the industries we wisp moBi to see muiiipntu m numbet among us the smaller in duBtric, ihe manufactories of farm ing implements, of broomf, of the thousand and one articles of every day use in the home and on the farm, and fcrj which we still pay heavy tribute to. Yankee-land,' are not par t'cularlv affect Ad by the tariff. But even from the standpoint which he would have us take it can be readily shown that the industrial prosperity of the South under the era of a low tariS was twice aa great aa it has ever been under the high war tariff of Re publicanism. The b tat is ties are all that way and are so plain that even the dullest cannot mistake them. We have frequently drawn on them toillustra e the advantages of a low tariff for this section aod our readers are familiar with them. The effect of the Mills bill, how ever, in point of fact w 11 be lo afford all the protection properly so cal ed ttiat American industry in any section needs. Protection is the prevention of injurious competition from ' with out aod the Mills bill is calculated to gve this to all legitimate enterprises us fully as the p esent unequal and oppressive tariff svs em doeB. It givcB the manufacturer his raw ma terial free or at a late very much re duced, enabling him thus to defy all competition from without the couu try aud at the aauio ime rea ize a profit equal to that which ho lyakes now, while the tax on the manufac tured product is lessened and the people as a whole aro relieved of the enormous burden of taxa ion on all that tbey buy which they are now compelled to pay. It ia an admirably planned uud per fected measure. It is eminently wise and conservative. It ia the result of diligent inquiry into the needB of the oountry and the most careful study of our industrial situation with a view to improvement. It is the matuied measure of the Democratic party. We hope every 'Democrat in Con gress not including the beggarly array known as Randallitee, who Been? to be past hoping for -with many right-thinking Republicans,will vote for its enactment into law. Under it this section would expe rience a relief that would tend to re store ihe buoyancy it felt in the days of its greatest glory, and all its vari ous industries would be benefited in the highest degree. We earnestly hope for its passage. This hen and egg problem, is be coming a very serious matter. It is rivalling the famous 13 lb' 14 puzzle aa a national issue, so to speak. It is producing discord in families and men are sitting up all night working at the "pesky Bum." The newspapers of the country are full of all sorts of solutions no two of which as a rnle are alike. The proposition, as our readers are aware, is aa follows: If a hen and a half lay an egg and abalf in a day and a half, now many eggs will six hens lay in seven daysT' It seems simplicity itself but the trouble is to get any two men, women or children to agree npon the answer or upon a method of reaching any answer. We have had a number of solutions sent in to us quite striking if not picturesque in their originality and variety, but some published by the Chicago Tribune are even more interesting thaa these. They are aa follows: Chicago, April 18 Editor of the Tribune If one and one-half hens lay one and one-half eggs in one and one-half, days, then six hens would lay six eggs in the same time- As one and one-half days are 4.66 of seven days, then 4x4 66 27.996 eggs in seven days. S. R. Chicaoo, April 18. Editor of the Tribune I think the following will prove a correct solution of the hen puzzle: If a hen and a half lay an egg and a half in a day and a half one hen will lay one egg and a half in one-third more time, or two days; six hens will lay nine eggs in two days. In seven days six hens will lay thirty one and a half eggs. Jo Bashes. Chicago, April 18. Editor of the Tribune.-Here is my answer .to the hen problem: If a hen and a half lay an egg and a half in a day and a half, it certainly must take one hen a day and a half to lay one egg, or three and a half eggs' in the seven days. Six hens will, of course, lay six timea what one hen will in a given time, providing it is in the Beaton for lay ing eggs, which m mis case would ne twentj-one eggs. Bcblihotok. Ia. Aoril 18. TEditor of the Tribune. 1 If one and a half hens lay one and a half eggs in one ana a hall days, one ben will lay one egg in one and a half days, or two thirds of an ties in a dav. or four and f u w two-thirds eggs In seven days; and OiJk. UCUO BtA bllllOS 1UUI ttiill tWU- thirds, or twentyieight. If not, why not t Q. B. Cjioaoo, April 18. TEditor of the Tribune. I have figured out your egg problem, and find the answer to be thirty -six. , Example ' Chicago, April 18 fEditor of the Tribune. I a hen and a half lay an egg and a half in a day and a half six hens wid lay twenty-four eggs in seven days: One and a half heus.one and a half eggs, one and a hulf dava: three hens, three eggs, one and a half uays; six hens, six eggs, one and a nan days, aixnens, twenty-four eggs, ' uajo. oeveum aay jaying not completed. Qooss Island Hen b y. Kankakw, III., April 19. Editor of the Tnbjue. In the issue of the 17th inat:, I see two answers to the hen's egg problem, neither of them being right. Now, if a hen and a half Jay an egg and a half in a day and a half, it therefore las one egg per day, being seven eggs for one heu in seven da) 8, or forty-two eggs for six hens ' in seven days. Fony-two eggs is the answer. G. R. L. Chicago, April 18. Editor of the : Tribune. The solution of the hen's-egg problem ' is as follows : , Leaving out the half hen and half egg, ; which are not material, and which are : simply used to mystify, the question becomes: If a hen lava an fir a in' & !day and half how many eggs will six hens lay in seven dayst The answer ;is twenty-fonr. Each hen lays four. Seven divided by one and a half eauals four and oneovar. tinm. thm one dav counts fcr not Line. boAii it takes a day and a half for each hen o iay an egg. j. u e question were : How many uacrm wonl 1 th air hum lay in seven and a half daysT the answer would be thirty, Decause in that case the fifth day and a half would be completed.

' Local politics is in motion, and local politicians in commotion Nu merous candidates are out for the office of Mayor, and of course numer ous candidates will still be oat after the 1st Monday in May. Cfept. Bu ford, the pre Bent Mayor, has a: last yielded to the wishes of his friends and consented to allow his name to go before the convention Mr. C. O. Lanier, the popular bookstore- man, has numerous backers who desire to see him run. Cpt. Lewis Williams, will also go before the convention, as aIbo will Mr. R. B Kerner, with others yet to hear from. The gentle men named above are all Democrats, good and true, and their names are to be submitted to a Democratic Conven tion. The convention will be called in a few days. I presume from what I have heard that a citizens' conven ' tion will be held, and candidates for Mayor and Commissioners will be nominated regardless of political faith. Deputy Grand Master Samuel Smith went to Huntsville, Yadkin county, od last Saturday, to assist in L laying the corner stone of the new Methodist uurcu which is to be erected there. He was accompanied by Major Baiham, Messrs. Peter A. Wilson, Thoe. Fairer and Harrison Miller, of this place. The following is a list ot ihe officers of the Grand Lodge whirh took part in the cere monies: G. M., Samuel Smith; D. (I M , O. F. Bahnson; S. G. W., E. A. Hoi ton; G. T , L. G Hunt; G S , P. A WilsoD, Jr.; G S. D , H. W. Douglas; G. J. D., J. D. Hamlin; G. T., Calvin Jones. Rev. W. V. Wilson, of Mockaville, delivered the addre8,which is said by those who heard it to have been one creditable to the orator and highly enjoyed by the twelve or fifteen hun dred people present. The revival that is in progress here at the Methodist Church is increasing in interest, and on yesterday quite a number connected themselves with the Methodist church. Rev. Mr. Stamey, of Reidsville, is in the city and will assist Mr. No man in the meetings. ' Editor V. W. Long and Mr. A. R. Right attended the convention of the Y. M. C. A., in Charlotte last week, and report a very pleasant and profit able time. Mr. Long tells me that there was a larger attendar.ee than had ever been present at any previous meeting of the kind, and there Was cone derable valuable business trans acted. Missionary services were held in the Baptist church onyesterdat morn ing. Pastor Brown preached a me morial sermon on the life and labors of Dr. Yates, late Missionary to China. At sight Dr. Rondthaler, pastor of the Salem Moravian church, preached a sermon in the Baptist church on Adoniram Judson, who was such an earnest and successful Missionary to China. At the conclusion of the ser mon Prof. Wm. A, Bla r deliver ed ; an instructive and high ly ; interesting address on the subject of foreig't missions. The re tirement of Dr. Rondthaler from the presidency of the Salem Female Academy will not affect that splendid institution in the least, as Mr.Clewell, who has for some t me been associate principal, is fully equal to the posi tion of principal, and besides, Dr. Rondthaler will still give the Acad emy a good deal of his valuable time. So the school will continue to go for ward in the noble work that it has been doing for four decades or more past. Col. A. B. Andrews and his secre tary i Mr. Richard Brooks, and Col. T. M. Holt and Messrs. Robt. Douglas and Frank Caldwell, of Greensboro, were; in the city last Saturday in at tendance upon the meeting of the stockholders of the N. W. N. a Rail road. This month's "School Teacher" will announce that Prof. Henry L. Atkin son will join Prof. Blair in editing and publishing that excellent journal of education.

The county convention ; for the purpose of appointing delegates to the State convention, was held in the court house today at 12 m, Mr. C. L. Pe tigrew acting as chairman pro tern. On motion, five delegates and al ternates were appoiu ed from the four voting preqinc a to represent tb county in the convention. A resolution was introduced and unanimously adopted to endorse for Associate Justice of 'the Supreme Court ;W. D. Pruden, Esq , of Eden tou. This resolution met the high ap probation of every citizen presect. Mr. Pruden is well known in this sec tion, and his work at the bar for many vears has won for him a high place in the legal profession. He will receive a heaitv support from the profession of this place and the sur rounding counties. Hon; Daniel G. Fowle was the decided preference of. the convention for Governor and he was unanimously endorsed for that office, i The convention could not choose a man to lead the Democratic vote in North Carolina who would meet with a more hearty support in Washington county. He ia known . throughout the State for the zeal and interest he has manifested t establish and main tain the rich IB of the Democrat in party id North Carolina. The resig nation of the present chairman of the executive committee was presented and accepted. The name of Mr. Pet tigrew vias proponed to fill the va cancy, and the action resulted in his unanimous elec ion. At the close of the convention, by reques , the ex chairman made a few remarks. He expressed bis deep regret in leaving North Carolina, but appreciated the fact that he waa to make Lis fu ture home in Georgia, where Democrat held sway. Wherever he might chance to go, the ' party io North Carolina which he bad striven to uphold and the citixena of Wash ington county would occupy a tender Spot in his heart.
