of Virginia for several days.

Tom' Reed thinks the last election
was a presidential boom for him. Mc

been especially strengthened by it.
Little Bennie Harrison, also, is not at

silver is a dead issue now, at
least, lor a time. The last election
gave it a black eye. The people
don't seem to be such sticklers after
silver anyhow. Come to think about
it, they would just about as soon
have gold anyway, if you'll give them
enough of it. .

Much is being said now about the
advisability of organizing a new party
' to take the place of the Democratic
party. It is thought by some that
the old party cannot recover from its
late defeat. That is a mistake. The
Waterloo has not come yet, and it is
not thought to be immediately in the
luture. :
Dr. McCosh, ex-president of
Princeton College, died last Saturday
and was buried Tuesday. Dr. Mc
Cosh was one of- the great men of
the times. He was a Scotchman by
birth. He was one of the best
thinkers of this generation. Many
valuable works are the product of
his pen.
Last Thursday Brazil's new Presi

May over Peixoto his predecessor. It

would endeavor to have himselt de

inauguration of Moraes, but. peaceful
counsel prevailed.
When Congress meets one year
from now, Thomas B. Reed, of
Maine, will be elected speaker with
out opposition. There is but one
man among all Jthe Republicans in
Congress that is even thought of in
connection with the honor, and that is
Reed. He is the great head of the
party in Congress.

On the last Thursday in Novem
ber the State returning board will
meet in Raleigh to canvass the. vote
cast in the last election. There are
some matters that will be decided
then. Bernard's election as Solicitor
in this district will not be con
ceded untir that board declares it.
A great many votes were cast irregu
larly for him and for that reason may
be thrown out.
As soon as the Democrats get
thrcjugh picking themselves up from
'their late defeat, they will begin mak
ing preparation to win a great victory
two years from now. There is no
reason to suppose that one defeat can
disintegrate the magnificent partv
that has won on so many fields. In
deed, there is every reason to believe
that its career has barely begun,
and that two years will make such a
transformation that jt will be invincible.
WHAT OF SILVER?
Now it is said that the last election
I
has about settled the silver question. the
Hereafter, so it is stated, we need not
lool; for any legislation in favor ol the
white metal. !
In theramnawn iu5t oast we did
not recrard the silver issue as clearly ' life

tarift was the air absorbing topic, and century to century, noting the death

we cannot see that the result is a de

ture offer? It only offers what had
already been foreshadowed by the
Democratic administration. More
than once President Cleveland has 1
shown his hostility to the white metal. :
I Clearly there was "no bright future for
silver during the present administra-
tion. It was a foregone corclrsion
that silver legislation had to be post-
j-y
poned until another President and an-1
other Congress could be elected. ;
Now that the Democrats have been
turned down all over the country and
the Republicans have been hoisted
iiito their places, the matter is not
changed at all. Democrats' have
oretended to be favorable to silver, '
i
but really have not been; and the commendable in the aged and praise
Republicans have been hostile to it. ' worthy in the young. It is -pi ssible

It seems to us that the people have
about made up their minds to submit j at forty, there is no just reason to
to the irony of fate. They prefer the suppose that his life is measured by
free coinage of silver, but their mas- j the same span. Insurana compa
ters, who should be their slaves, pre-1 nies pretend to think so. They
fer otherwise, and they have about ; judge the risk by the record ol one's
concluded to yield up the sponge.
There is no chance for. the free
coinage of silver, seemingly, in this
country; at least, for the present.
That being so, it is well to be making
calculations to that effect. If we have
put masters over us to dictate for us
in this matter, and are satisfied with
their dictatorship, then we should be
satisfied with their policy. The coun
try cannot complain of their masters.
Officers hould not be masters.
They should be servants; but, as a
matter of fact they are not servants.
They ignore the people and follow
their own pleasure, but if the
people are satisfied at it, who can
blame them?
Inasmuch as the matter stands as it
does, the silver question had better
be relegated to tne rear. We should
be sorry to see the country come to
the single gold standard, but we see
no help for it. All seem disposed to
accept the result as unfavorable to
silver, and we can't gainsay it.
THE 3IAXCHU DYNASTY.
It is not generally known that the
ruler of China is very unpopular with
the Chinese people. It is true, how
ever, if we may trust reports, that the
great body of Chinamen secretly
wish for the downfall of the Manchu
dynasty that has ruled China tyran
nically so long.
The present sovereign of China is
a descendent of a race ol kings that
came from Mangolia ages ago, and
conquered China. Ever since that
ancient time the native born Chinese
have looked upon them as usurpers
and tyrants. More than once the
people have rebelled against them,
but each time they have been subju
gated with great loss of life.
Now, the war with-Japan is regard
ed by the masses generally as an ex
cellent chance to get rid of that un
popular lamily of kings. Most of
them secretly wish for the success of
the Japanese for that reason. It is
not a war of the nation against Japan,
but only a comparatively small faction
that is carrying on the strife. If Japan
is victorious and succeeds in . taking
Pekin, the fall of the dynasty will be
consummated to the great joy of the
masses.
Consequently, the recent proposi
tion of the United States to arbitrate
the difference between Japan and
Chipa, is not very acceptable to the
masses of the Chinese people. They
do not wish to lose such an excellent
chance, to get rid of their tyrants.
The proposition, however, is very ac
ceptable .to the ruling class, because
they see that Japan's success would
mean their overthrow. ..
Japanisnot likely to accept the
overtures of the United States, be-
' T 1 t - - . ''
cause japan nas Deen wanting to
punish the Manchu tyrants for a long
time, and there could be no better
time than now. So we may expect
the war to go on until the ruling
class in China shall yield up the
sponge.
David B. Hill is a dead factor in
American politics. It took David B.
a year to find that out. The greater
part of the country found it out last
fall when Hill's candidate for judge
was beaten by a hundred thousand
majority. Hill didn't find it out,
though, until the 6th of Novem
ber. That day was a revelation to
him. He can now meditate upon the
vanities of ambition.

is plainly seen, also, that the longer
a person lives, the longer he wishes
to live. It is a fact well authenticated
that suicides never occur among very
old nersons. Who ever heard of a
centenarian's committing suicide?
Such a thing never occurs. All the
suicides are iound among persons
comparatively young, persons who
have grown tired of living before
they have learned all the sweets
ot
lile. -
Generally speaking, the desire to
live ione is a natural one. Every
one wants to postpone to as late
date as possible the inevitable packing
up for the other world. That day wil
finally come, but mankind, as a rule
are not disposed to contribute any
thing conscientiously to the hastening
cf that day. The desire to live long
is a commendable one also.

parentage. There is reason in their
judgment, however, for the habits
that contiibute to the shortening ol
the father's life may have the same ef
fect upon the son. While one does
not, and cannot, inherit longevity,
still the child learns habits from its
parents that will have effect upon his
life. It is, however, largely- in one's
own power to shorten or prolong his
days.
William Kmnear has an able ar
ticle on this subject in the November
number of the North American Re
view. In it he gives some examples
of remarkably long life with a review
of the subjects' habits. From those
records he gathers some qualities
that contribute to longevity and
gives them in detail. We quote
from him: i
Uuahties that lead to extreme
length of years are a well made frame
of average stature, spare rather than
stout, good health, robust constitu
tion, freedom from ailments, few or
no doctor's bills, good digestion, good
appetite with little need of anima
food, no consumption of alcoholic
beverages, and the habit of sleeping
well and early rising.
There we have a code; and if
person has all of those qualities, there
is no reason why he should not live
to be a hundred or more. Every
one knows that, but the trouble with
most people is not in the knowing
but in the doing. Repinings and
moanings, mingled with complaints o:
one s hardships in lile, conduce to
shortness of days. The future cen
tenarian is the person who has
smile on his lace or lurkingf in the
corners of his mouth all the time. The
sour hypochondriac may expect to fil
an early grave.
It is very important then for peo
pie to endeavor to acquire these
qualities. All want to live long, and
here is a simple direction which any
ordinary being can . regard in one
way or another. We can't guide na
ture, it is true, in shaping our forms,
but we can observe the law of health
in such a way as to be quite free from
bodily ailments. We can control our
appetites. We can keep from drink
ing alcoholic beverages.
Withal the plan is a very good one,
and according to experts, the aver
age life of human beings is capable of
being very much lengthened by a
strict observance of these laws. In
stead of the average life being thirty
five, it should be four score, and
science may yet produce that result.
ISRAVE BIRDS.
So far as we have seen, the Wilson
Advance rooster is the only Denio
cratic bird that has had the temerity
to crow over the election. That fowl
didn't need much inspiration to start
him off; he was crowing over a slight
majority in Wilson county. Monroe
Journal.
These be brave birds in this part
of the State, and our esteemed bro
ther of the Journal will find that out,
if he will continue the laudable prac
tice of reading the Advance. We
should like. to add that in addition to
the entire county ticket, we elected
all the constables in the . county ex

We clip the above from Messrs
Hubbard, Price, & Co's Weekly cot
ton statement of last week. There
is one encouraging statement in it.
and that is that the spinners are using
more raw products than was at first
supposed. But the discouraging
part of it is that another such crop j
will make the price in New York
three cents.
Anyone, however, can see that an
other nine million crop will bring
down the price to three cents, and
our farmers had better open their
eyes to that fact.

Reuben F. Kolb, who was beaten j
for the governorship of Alabama on
the Populist ticket last August, has ,
issued a manifests to the people of ;
Alabama in w-hich he claims there '
were frauds in the elections and that :
he was elected. He says he expects,
to be in Montgomery on the - first of ;
December to take the oath of office.
We quote a few words from him:
"You, fellow-citizens, have twice

and this time by the grace of God
and the help of the good people of
Alabama, I will be Governor. Dec.
1st is the day fixed by the law for the
inauguration of Governor. On that
day I shall be in Montgomery
for the purpose of taking the oath of
office, and my seat as Governor. And
I hereby call upon the good people
in ever partTof the State to aid me all
in their power in the proper and
peaceful upholding of the law, and to
set aside the powers of the traitors
and usupers in Alabama.
There are twenty-six contests
that will come aefore the next Con
gress. There are two from this
State, namely Cheatham contests
W oodard's seat in the Second and
Martin contests Lockhart's in the
sixth. Out of the twenty-six only
one is a Democrat. The Republi
cans will have a fine old time count
ing in defeated candidates next win
ter. It is the opinion of many that the
farmers of North Carolina will have to
quit the production of cotton, unless
they can contrive means by which
they can make it profitably at four
cents a pound. There is no sort of
use in men's following a losing game
even if it furnishes employment.
Farmers can hnd employment for all
of their time without toiling over
something that is unprofitable.
