At e other night there were ten
our school board in ses:ion
tne special business was
ttlsetlier to give a longer recess
at noon or not, aud it was curi-
s to hear the varioni opinions
P1' the subject. Our president
i'steneo patiently to all and
en made a speech for himself,
said that the children should
tave more time to go home and
a good warm dinner. "Cold

cie- 1 am decidedly in favor of
a longer recess and warm
ners.''
That was a good speech and
a eensible argument, but it hurt
my feelings so bad that I rose
forward and in tremulous ac
cents told how I went to school
three miles from home for three
long and happy years, and car
ried my dinner in a bucket, and
how I enjoyed those cold din
ners that my good mother- po
carefully prepared and how I
had often tried to write a poem
to that little tin bucket such
a poem as . Woodworth wrote
about "The old oaken bucket
that hung in the well.". My
poem began just like his, but
always ended with.
That dear little bucket,
That blight, shining bucket,
That little tin bucket 1 carried
to school.
Oh those delightful cold din
ners that were so nicely arrang
ed! The tender and luscious fried
chicken, with the liver and giz
zard and all; the hard-boiled
eggs, with the little paper of
salt and pepper close by; the
home-made sausages, linked
sausages, that, in the language
of Milton, were "linked sweet
ness long drawn out,"" the lit
tle bottle of syrup and'the round
handmade biscuit that were
beaten from the dough and had
no soda in them and last of all,
the gfiod old-fashioned ginger
cakes and the turn-over pies.
Ah, those rights and lefts, those
delicious juicy pies that were
made of peaches that my moth
er dried.
Just then there was a racket
behind me and Will Howard
was seen falling over in his
chair, with his hands clasped
below the belt and his eyes roll
ed up to heaven'. . He gasped
piteously as he . whispered.
"Hash, major hu?h, for heaven's
sake." Martin Collins shouted,
"Glory," and Judge Milner heav
ed a troubled sigh and murmur
ed. "Oh, would I were a boy
again."
For fear of a scene I suspens
ded . my broken remarks, and
our worthy president gracefully
subsided. Major Fonte wiped
his eyes with his empty sleeve
and moved for and adjournment
andso the recess hour remains
unchanged.
I believe it is best for chil
dren to walfe a mile or two to
school, especially if there are
other children to walk with
them a part of the way. Every
ssep 01 tnat inreemiie way is
dear to me now, and I love to
recall the boyish frolics as mor
ning and evening we meanders
ed along playing tag or mad dog,
or running foot races, or jump
ing half hammered, or stopping
at the half-way branch to wade
in the water, or dam it up; or
catch the tadpoles, or drive
the little minnows into their
holes. It was there that I sav
for the first time a tadpole tur
ning to a frog, and it was there
we killed a water moccasin, with
a fro iu his throat, andsawhis
frog-Nship kick out backwards
and hop avay. I cau go now
to' the very gully, that had a
vein ei reu cnaiK, ana anoiner
one that had while. I know eve
ry persimmon tree and chestnut
and hickory, and where the red
haws were, and the black haws
and the fruitful walnut that we
climbed in its season and rattled
the nuts to the ground aud
stained our hands and clothes
in hulling them. All such things
are around me now, not far away
but there, is no charm, no fond
memory about them, for they
were hot mine. All these are
for another generation another
set of boys and girls. By and
by they will be looking back at
theirs as I am looking back at
mine. In a few more years they
will reverse the telescope. Uns
til I was. about thirty I looked
through the little end and saw
life axpanded and magnified
before me, and the distant
things were brought almost
within reach and I was neariog
the goal of my hope and my am
bition, but alag! I never reached
it, and by degrees hope weaken
ed and ambition became chill
ed. And .with a sad humility I
began to look backwards, I re
versed .he telescope and saw my
life away back in the distant
past. The picture was far-very
far away: but it was beautiful
and now as tne years grow
short. I find myself looking
through the large end almost
oifnafithfir. The memories of
the past grow sweeter a3 the
treasure of years is hope but
the treasure of age is memory

Here ou are again. The Re
publican tariff goes for the
poor man , every time. That's
the trouble. The American
Architect, a class journal, of
undoubted authority, figures
out that the McKinley bill will
not materially change the cost
of large and expensive build
ings, but the cost of the cheap
er class of buildings will be en
hanced. That is, the tax falls
on the homes of the working-
men, of course, not on the pah
ace of the millionaire.

Will you vote the Democratic

When the farmers of the West
asked Congress to put binding

and it was done. They use
perhaps $1,000,000 worth. Im
mediately Senator Vance asked
to have cotton bagging, made
of the eame material as twine,
put on the free list. Republi
cans refused to consent. South
ern Democrats use 83,000,000
worth. How about that?
Senator Vance spoke in Car
thage last week to about 2,500
men. The Sanford Express
says he explained his position
on the sub-treasury bill and
Mr. Elisha Cole asKed him if
the bill were constitutional

COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA,
WASHINGTON LETTER-
What E or Harris J n ard the
ticians ar e Doing.
Poli
Washington. Oct. 17. 1890.
There's a limit to all things,
even to Republican audacity.
Mr. Harrison, after a rather
stormy discussion iu which his
cabinet was nearly equally di
vided, has reached the conclu
sion that it would be certain
defeat to his party at the Con
gressional elections for him to
issue a proclamation convening
Congress in , extra session for
the sole purpose of passing the
Force bill and the Congress
sional Apportionment-bill, two
measures intended to perpetu
ate' the power of the Republi
can party. This conclusion Is
another victory for Mr. Blaine
over the Reed wing of his par-.
ty Mr. Blaine has never wav
ered in his opposition to the
Force bill.
"Mr. Flower and the Demo
cratic Congressional Campaign
committee," said a member of
that committee to me, "are all
right, and the Democrat who
abuses Mr. Flower for his man
agement of the campaign does
not know what he is talking
about. From the day on which
he was elected chairman of the
committee to the present time,
he has not made the slightest
move without first consulting
Senator-elect Brice, chairman
of the National Committee, and
Senator Gorman, and nothing
has been done without their
approval. Now, if those two
ttentlemen do dot know how to
conduct a campaign- no one in
the Democratic party does. Of
course Mr. Flower has been to
certain dxrent hampered by
the lack of money, but that is
nothing new to democratic cam
paign managers. The Demo
cratic party has never had a
large corruption campaign
fund, and I hope it never will.
If we cannot win without pur
chasing votes I prefer to . lose.
But unless all of my informa
tion is at fault we shall carry
the House in spite of the pro
tected manufacturers' . money,
with which the Republicans
are so plentifully supplied;"
ExnSenator Kellogg, once the
Republican Moses in Louisiana,
sees no prospect for his party
carrying the House. He says:
"Business men and politicians
with whom I have conversed,
all Republicans, declare that
the new tariff law will operate
to the disadvantage of the par
ty and will lose us the House
in the ensainsr elections. It
will have a tendency to drive
away tne farmer vote when
that class entertains that the
cost of many articles of prime
necessity is directly increased
by reason of the McKinley bill.
A rise in prices all along the
line seems to be expected, and
as that means additional bur
dens for the consumer, great
complaint is inevitable. It
seems quite reasonable, there
fore, to expect that the Demo
crats win carry the House. " In
Louisiana I dout think the
Republicans will win a single
Congressional district."
The funeral services of the
late Justice Miller were held in
the Supreme Uourt room yes
terday afternoon, and last
m r
night the remains, accompa
nied by a distinguished escort,
left on a special train for Keo
kuk, Iowa, where the inter
ment is to take place. The
scramble for the place he left
vacant is already quite lively
among the Republicans. -At
tornev-General Miller, on ac
count of his personal relations
with Mr. Harrison, has the in
side track, but it is by no
means certain that he will get
the prize. Secretary Noble
would gladly take it, but "Cor
poral" Tanner says heviil not
if his soldier influence can pre
vent it. Senator Edmunds
would not object, ialtbough he
would ouly. have about eigh
years to serve before he became
eligible for retirement, but
they say the East isn't in it.
Senator Spooner and several
other gentlemen have friends
here working in their behali,
and the Indiana folks who are
opposed to Attorney -General
Miller are trying to do some
thing for Judge Gresham. Be
fore Congress reassembles the
number of candidates will be
largely increased.
Representative Kerr, who is

, : Printed-
m nia excellent speech last
I Friday,
C. B. Aycock, Esq.,
urged upon his hearers to vote
the straight ticket, and illus
trated his point with the fol
lowing- anecdote; There - was
an oid Baptist brother-tvho be
lieved that he did everything
by inspiration; who would read
wherever his book would fall
open. There wa abad boy iu
Lis congregation'who caught on
tof this peculiarity of . the old
mail a muke up, and went one
day and pasted a piece of po
etry in his hymn book that did
not belong there. Ou the nent
Sunday when the old brother
arose to read out his hymn, the
book opened at this place. He
eyed it critically for some time
and then removed his glasses
and polished thern and reads
justed them and lead: "Old
Grim 63 is Dead." Then sfared
and eyed it critically again,
and removed his glasses and
polished them again, he read
justed them and again read:
"Old Grimes is dead,
That good old man.',
Then the third tiin9 he re
moved, dolished and readjusted
his glasses and read:
'Old Grimes is dead
That good old man;
We'll never see him more,
He always wore a long-tail coat
All buttoned down before."
The old brother stopped
reading and addressing his con
gregation, said: Brethren, I
have been reading this book
nigh on to fifty years and I
have never seen.that hymn be
fore, but by the grace of God
we will sing ilvthrough," Now,
ellow citizens, " if there, is
something .in the Democratic
party which you have never
seen before, by the- grace of
God vote the ticket through.
Watches C:mpassss.
A writer ia theLonfton Truth
says: "A lew aays ago l.was
standing by an Amcrisau gen-
leman, when I expressed a
wish to know which point was
North. He at once pulled out
his watch, looked at it and
pointed North. I asked him I
whether he had a compass at
tached to his 4Vitch. 'A11
watches,' he replied, 'are com:
passes." men ne explained to
me how this was. Point the
hour hand to the sun and the
South is exactly half way be
tween the hour and the figure
XII on the watch. For instance,
suppose that it is 4 o'clock.
Point the hand indicating 4 to
the sun and II ou the. watch is
exactly South. Suppose that
it is 8 o'clock, poiut the hand
indicating 8 to the suu and the
figure X on the watch is due
South. My American friend
was quite surprised that I did
not know this. Thinking very
possibly I was ignorant of a
thing every one else knew, aud
happening to meet Mr. Stanley,
I asked the eminent traveler
whether he was aware of this
simple mode ol discovering the
points of the compass. He
said that he had never heard of
it. I presume, therefore, that
the world is in the same state
of ignorance. Amalfi is proud
of having been the home of th6
inventor of the compass. 1 do
not know what town boasts of
my American friend as a citi
zen.
The Eight Kind 01 Democr at-
In the Democratic convenn
tion tor tr.e fourth congres
sional district Mr. Bunn's oppo
neut was Mr. W. F. Stroud of
Chatham, a prominent member
of the Alliance. Mr. Bunn spoke
at Pittsboro recently. Mr.
Stroud introduced him and is
thus reported by the News and
Observer:
He said he had been honored
at Durham by receiving 112
votes for Congress, and he felt
the honor, and now advocated
Bunn because he represented
all that was dear to him, Bunn
represented the Democratic
party. He was a true Alliance
man, but that cbjes not mean
that ha was not a Democrat
The Democratic party and the
Alliance, in principle, mean the
same thing. When he was a
boy the condition of the farm
ers was good, and th9y were the
best ot the people. 2sow they
are in a deplorable condition.
'1 hey are crushed to the ground.
Who are responsible for.it
The Democratic party has not
had the power in Congress to
repeal obnoxious laws, and the
Republican party alone is re
sponsible. He then, in pleas
ant words, introduced Capt.
Bunn. ,
That rings about right.
