1 he Chairman ot the rloara ot
Commissioners, J. D. Wells,' read a
statement showing that the Board
had expended for all purposes during
the oast vear $5,66 .qt as.' aeainst
$8,863, by the Board preceding it
They had concluded that a tax levy
of 17 cents on the $100 worth ot
property would be amply sufficient
for the needs of the county and so
recommended. Their recommenda
tion was almost unanimously adopted
Chairman Wells ' stated further that
such a levy would raise, in addition
to the amount now in the Treasury,
about $10,000. It was hard to calcu
late how -much would be needed
1 he recent rains had damaged many
bridges and this trouble would make
a serious drain on the treasury
The amount levied will make the
County and State tax only 60 cents
on the $100 worth of property.
The meeting authorized the Com
missioners to use their best judgment
in building any bridge that will cost
over $500. (The bridge being wash
ed away at Wiggins' Mill, and the
estimated cost being over $500, was
the occasion of such action, as the
Justices have to concur before the
commissioners nave power
to con-
rea
tract and pay for such a foridj
The old Board of Education, con
sisting of Messrs. J. W. Lancaster,
William Woodard, Jr., and Simon
Barnes, was unanimously re-elected.
A tax tf 20 cents dn the $100
worth of property and 60 cents on
the poll, was levied in School District
No. 1 for Wilson Graded School.
The proclamation of Governor
Holt, as published in last weeks'
Advanxe, urging the joint session to
make an appropriation for the pur
pose of making an exhibit Ax. the Ex
position was read. Mr.t F. W.
Barnes was opposed to any appro
priation. So was Mr. Jas. S. Wood
ard. Mr. Woodard made an elo
quent speech. He started out by
saying this was the age of appropria
tions. The Republican party had
made them fashionable. They had
cleaned out the surplus in the Na
tional Treasury. He ascribed the ills
we now suffer to this one evil ap
propriations. So he was opposed to
it. But he hoped every farmer in
the county would make an individu
al exhibit. He took occasion just
here to highly eulogize Wilson county-
When the canvass was going on
over the question of forming a new
county a distinguished speaker from
Edgecombe said that the new county
would be too poor to build a Court
House or jail, and never would
build a county bridge. To-day we
have one of the richest counties in
the State. It is not in debt.' It has
the lowest tax levy in the State. It
is second in yield of cotton per acre.
It has passed its mother county
Edgecombe and left- her way behind.
Its people are prosperous, generous
and happy. He hoped every farm
er in the county would show some
thing at the Raleigh Exposition.
They could do so, and they should.

It was decided to appoint a Com

Ransom's Valuable Work Building His

Are Democrats First Memorial Day in
Washington The Mueh-Talked-of I'nl
versitv a Faet.
(SPECIAL COR. THE ADVANCE.)
Washington, D. C, June 1, 1891.
Senator Ransom spent several
days here last week, attending to
matters ol importance to his constit
uents. Among these was the ap
pointment of Col. Fuller to the new
ind Court Bench which you may
rely on as a fixed fact. I have just re
ceived information to that effect, from
first-class authority. Another thing
was the Hatteras Lighthouse, the
building of which, under the direc
tion of the Lighthouse Board of the
Treasury Department is to be push
ed forward as rapidly as possible.
Senator Ransom secured for this
great work an appropriation of half a
million dollars. It will rival the
great Bartholdi statue, whose beacon
light illumines New York harbor, in
point of height and brilliancy ; but
will surpass it as a work of engineer
ing skill. The finest engineers in the
world will make the foundation on
which this North Carolina lighthouse
will stand. It is to shine far out at
sea, far beyond the roar of the surges
that break on the dangerous shoals.
It will be an everlasting monument to
Senator Ransom's influence and abil
ity. It will greatly increase the
commerce of North Carolina's sea
port towns, and will prove a blessing
to the sea-larmg world. 1 hope, al
ter it is finished, the skulls and
wrecks that strew the sands of that
dangerous coast will become things
of the past.
North .Carolina has toreotten to
adequately thank Senator Ransom
for the prominent part he took in be
ing the leading factor,, with Senator
Gorman,: in defeating the Force Bill of
the late Congress, but she can never
forget or ignore the benefit he con
ferred when he secured the $500,000
tor this great Lighthouse. Mary
land gave Gorman a splendid silver
service for what he did in securing the
defeat of the odious Force Bill and
I have absolute knowledge that Ran
som did as much if not more in the
same direction and we have not
shown our appreciation of our Sena
tors work as I think we ought to
have done. But no ingratitude nor
forgetfulness can blot QUt, for ages to
come, the $500,000 Deacon light that
will illumine the treacherous and
death -bearing reels that make our
coast a terror to the sea-farring
world. This will speak of what he
has done, in tones louder than the
thunders of the angry waves ; and
stand forever a monument over the
sea and the land of the State he has
loved and served so well. He has
decided to be the orator of the day
when the Confederate Monument is
unveiled in your city. I do not pre
sume to describe his manner nor the
eloquence. He is among the fore
most of living speakers. I have
heard Monsignor Capel at his best ;
Roscoe Conkling, Alexander Steph
ens, when the fire of his words made
you forget the harshness of his voice
and insignificance of Ins person ; our
own lamented Bishop Atkinson, than
whom there were few better speak
ers : but Ransom combines with the
splendid bearing of Conkling more
than the eloquence of Stephens, the
suavity and persuasiveness of Capel,
the grace and dignity of Bishop At
kinson and above all his own indi
viduality and resistless power as ora-
tor.
which belongs exclusively to
himself
1 he theme will inspire him
and
I envy your pebole on that dav.
Capt. Armand DeRossett is here
J
busy with a corps of assistants copy
ing the direct tax lists for the Wil
mington Messenger. I inferred from
what Capt. DeRossett told me that
the Advance was to be the pioneer
in the enterprise. At any rate, I
know the Advance made the first
formal application to Capt. DeRos
sett ior the names of the tax payers
in Nash, Pitt and Wilson. I carried
this request to Capt. DeRossett in
person, and he promised to give it
his immediate attention.
I beg leave to re-echo the true
sentiment of your able leader of last
week, viz : The Southern farmers are
Democrats, first ; Alliance men, sec
ond. ' The People's Party of the
United States of America" will do
well to remember this, if it lives long
enough to get to the thinking age I
President Harrison will receive the
Committee from the Northern Set
tler's Convention at Raleigh, June
10th, who will come here to invite
him to attend the Southern Exposi
tion. Ed. Graham Haywood, Esq., a
son of the late Col. E. G. Haywood,
of Raleieh, died at the Freedman's
Hospital in this city last week. Un
til recently, Mr. Haywood held ior
years a prominent place in the Treas
ury Department here. He was bur
ied Saturday at the Congressional
Cemetery.
Memorial day was Observed here
with the usual formalities on Satur
day, viz : Soldiers, citizens, darkeys
and brass bands all marched out to
Arlington and decorated the graves
of the Federal dead. There are a
few Confederates buried to them
selves at Arlington and they some
times get flowers also but not so
many. These are mostly from Ten
nessee, Alabama, and Florida.
North Carolina had 107 buried there,
more than any other Southern State,
but several years ago these were all
moved to Raleigh and now rest in
the Confederate Cemetery under the
shadow of the Confederate monu
ment.
The Methodists are going to es
tablish a magnificent University here.
The site is near Mr. Cleveland's for
mer country home known as Oak
View. Our progressive and influen
tial fellow citizen, Julian ,S. Carr,
Esq., is on the Board of Trustees.
The breach between Blaine and
Harrison widens every day. Blaine
is the stronger man of the two.
Mr. H. F. Farmer book-keeping,
Div. Sixth Auditor's office, returned
to this city Sunday with his bride,
who was Miss Lizzie B. Farmer, of
Wilson. His associates in the De
partment have presented him with a
handsome black French clock as a
token of their regard and congratu-
ations.
ANOTHER LETTER.
.V St-heme to Down Gorman "The 1'luin-
ed Kinght" still Drives The Trouhle
Hoine Money D;uettlon The Pension Of
fiee not Yet Quiet- A Few Resignations
Col. Tom Fuller is "in it."
Washington, June ist, 1891.
There is considerable indignation ex
pressed by Democrats here over a
publication in a New York paper in
timating that the JNational Associa
tion of Democratic Clubs was using
its machinery to boom Senator Gor
man for the Presidential nomination.
The principal aim of this magnificent
organization, which is bound to play
a very important part in tne next
campaign, has been, from its organi
zation, to work for the cause of the
Democracy, but under no circum
stances to take any part in the mak
ing or unmaking of Presidential can
didates. It was because ol this aim
that when the association appointed
its corresponding agents, one or more
of which it has in every county in the
United States, it has decided not to
select the men, but to request the
Democratic State Committees to
make the selections. Now it requires
no argument to convince anyone that
if this association proposed using its
vast influence for any one man it
would have made its own selection of
corresponding agents in order to be
certain of having friends of its man.
By getting the State committee to do
it all chance of favoritism was done
away with, as it is well known that a
majority of the committees of the dif
ferent States favor different men for
the nomination.
There is no objection here to Sen
ator Gorman, for he-is idolized by
the party, and it is the intimation
that the association is trying to force
his nomination that is objected to.
The association proposes leaving
the selection of the candidate to the
delegates to the national convention ;
the work for which it was organized,
and for which it is now planning, is
the election of the nominee, no mat
ter who he may be, and it will con
fine itself to that work.
Representative Hitt, of Illinois,
who has been called Mr. Blaine's
personal representative in the House,
has just returned from a visit to Mr.
Blaine, and it is said that he brought
a message to the White House which
gave Mr. Harrison a bad half hour.
It was a remonstrance against certain
changes that Mr. Harrison proposed
making in some of Mr. Blaine's plans
and it carried with it a threat of
resignation, and my informant says
Mr. Hitt left with the assurance
that Mr. Blaine's plans would
not be interfered with. Ex-Min-
T 1 iir T - . -1 1
isier, jonn vv. roster, win act as
Secretary of State while Mr. Blaine
is taking a rest, but the assistant Sec
retaries of State do not take kindly to
the idea they think they should
have had the honor, but neither Mr
Harrison nor Mr. Blaine thought
either ot them big enough for the
job. -x
Mr. Harrison does not approve of
Secretary Foster's scheme of ex
tending the 44 percent bonds which
mature next September, but the Sec
retary still hopes to talk him around,
as he knows the necessity of having
the money for other uses will soon be
so apparant that everyone can see it.
The Pension Office is giving the
administration a good deal of trouble.
According to good Republican au
thority Mr. Harrison utilized his visit
to Philadelphia on Memorial day by
trying to get a big G. A. R. man to
take Commissioner Raum's place,
but he didn't succeed. The Penn
sylvania man was too smart. He
wasn't looking for that sort of an of
fice. There is lots of talk about resig
nations these days, and, strange as
it may seem, some resignations. The
Commissioner of Patents has discov
ered that office-holding isn't his
forte and has resigned ; the Surgeon
General of the Marine Hospital Ser
vice has also resigned he got $4,000
a year, and thought he ought to get
$6,000. Cabinet rumors are also
again current, one of them puts Bob
Lincoln at the head of the War De
partment and sends Secretary Noble
to England as our minister.
The agony as to who shall sit on
the new land Court bench will be
over in a few days, probably this
week. The Attorney-General is re
ported to have said that one of the
judges will be a Democrat.

Mr. Marburg, of Baltimore, was in
Durham last week, with President
Duke, Mr. Harris, chief accountant,
and others of the American Tobacco
Co. The Globe glories in previous
reDorts of the "Bull" sale, which it
says now only awaits Mr. McDow
ell's signature.
The North Carolina Tobacco
State Convention has been called for
August 5th at Morehead City, when
premiums will be offered to planters
for best tobaccos. The President,
Capt. John Lockhart, of Durham,
has appointed Capt. E. M. Pace to
represent Wilson.
Capt. A. J. Ellington, the well
known tobacconist of Rocky Mount,
N. C, has formed a co-partnership
with Mr. Wiggins, of Edgecombe
county, for the purpose of conducting
the warehouse business. They will
occupy the large new warehouse now
being built by Mr. W. C. Woodard,
of Rocky Mount.
The monthly crop report of the U.
S. Agricultural Department, which
was published last Thursday, makes
the following Statement regarding
Virginia and North Carolina tobacco
crops : In Virginia, tobacco will be
decreased in acreage, owing largely
to the scarcity of plants. On the
whole, the area of all crops taken to
gether will be about the same as last
year.
Of North Carolina it says : We
have never known so late a spring in
North Carolina. The decrease in
area will scarcely be perceptible, as
there is a manifest tendency to bet
ter farming and greater diversity of
crops.
THE DARK BELT GLOOMY.
The Danyille Tobacco Journal in
its last issue has the following : From
the dark belt of Southside Virginia
where the heavy dark tobaccos are
grown so extensively the reports in
regard to the crop are anything but
favorable. The prospects may have
improved some within the past week,
as they have in other sections, but a
posted man writing from Prince
Euward county says :
"The outlook for crops in this sec
tion is decidedly gloomy. The ex
cessive rains for two months, up to
April ist, prevented farmers from
ploughing their lands for corn and
tobacco crops and sowing their plant
beds. Since then we have had no
rain at all, and consequently not
more than half of the corn crop has
been planted. The land is so dry
and hard that it is impossible to
break it or to prepare the tobacco for
planting, and there are very few to
bacco plants in the country. I con
siderer the outlook the most gloomy
in my recollection "
THE DURHAM BULL SALE.
The Durham Globe has three col
umns on it. Mr. Carr refuses to say.
Heads ol departments are seeking
other sheltering arms. Book-keepers
and experts are busy with the Bull's
books. President Duke is looking
into final statements. Mr. Carr has
plenty of money and will still be most
uselul to Durham. The Bull factory
will be converted into a storehouse
and the Duke factory will run the
Durham machinery. Only 150 out
ol the 1000 laborers thrown out will
find place at the consolidated factory.
II the books are O. K. it closes the
sale. The present factory is five
years old and 160 feet by 200 feet
and four stories with two wings of
160 feet. Durham will be put back
five years in growth by the biggest
world s lactory sale, it is said.
I he American Tobacco Co., will
stop at nothing, and goes it full
length. Now the Globe will appre
ciate why the Southern Tobacconist
has been expostulating and caution
mg it comes closer home. Only
last week it was mildly defensive of
the American Tobacco Co., quoting
our JNew York Journal ol Commerce
reports. Who will be the buyers of
smokers and cutters now ? One man,
one concern. Who will dare com
pete with them ? Where do the
planters stand ? Will they be satis
fied with the power of one, even with
high prices maintained ?
Reports to the contrary notwith
standing, the Messrs. Dukes and Carr
will hardly ruin Durham, or suffer it
to be done. United, they will ag
grandize the town now. Richmond
