Virginia, have decided that the girls sHould be allowed to "flirt" as much as they pleased, or the boys would permit. President Dole, of Hawaii, -is creating quite a stir' at Washington, where he is at present, the country's guests They do say that he has more whiskers than; Senator Peffer. Tup nttpmnt to iruir trtrep . 1 1 new stars on the flag of state, last -week, was a failure. It was thought that New Mexico, Arizona and UkianOma Had nrrfr np a rvurpn mnrp r mp n which to grow. ', V- ' Tin: Teller resolution pas sed the Senate by a vote of 47 to 32. The party lines were broken in the vote, some leading republicans, voting on the silver side, while some democrats voted against the measure. The choice of a Senator in Tennessee seems. to be a hard " tiling to settle upon. 1 ne nay : 1 . t w - rri : r i dhng Governor is determined, 'if possible, to get the berth but there is quite a strong sen timent against him. The deadlock has lasted for some weeks already with no signs -of a let up. : r ... " The Cubaasituation remains practically the same. The ar rival of the U. S. Steamship Maine, at Havana, is looked upon by both sides as an ad vantage to their side. In the meantime the ship is there in case any necessity should arise. This is a guarantee that American interests will be protected. The speechifying on the Tel ler resolution, ; in . the House, was cut rather short. Speaker Reed did not have much to say but he hustled the bill through to a" Vote in .just hve hours, the result being its defeat by fifty majority, which was just one more than the republican majority, 1 over all others the House. in TuEvery latest fad, in New York, is the -'Order of the Crown."

W . do not advise that bur farmers should plant their entire fields : in peanuts but we do not doubt that better results would follow if some of the acreage, now de voted to cotton, were turned into the juicy nut, lor in the language of our bid friend Buck Gill, "if I don't sell them, I can eat them." .' ! In promptly declining to ad mit three territories to state hood, last week, the Senate may have been giving an inti mation of what will-be the fate oi. - the Hawaiian treaty, for surely Sf j there is not room enough for these territories there should be no hesitation about taking. under Our pro tection a group of ; islands, thousands of miles out in the Pacific, and populated by a heterogeneous 'population of some hundreds of thousands of the .most ignorant and deprav ed people on the face of the earth, not to mention the fair sprinkling of cannibals which inhabit some of the islands. Messenger- Government by persecution is pressed in North Carolina. The day of reckoning is com ing so sure as the tides run. When the outraged people shall rise in their power and majesty the guilty fellows will hide themselves in shame and call upon the mountains to fall upon them. (JRIED WI I H DISAFl'OINrMENt. Danbury Reporter. . " .-' One Stokes brother who even under Cleveland always received living prices for his tobacco, carried a load to mar ket last week and was so over come at his infinitesimal re turns. ' that he broke down and cried and made himself ah ob: ject of ridicule, to the tobacco buyers and everybody standing arcund. ' W hether his tears were the vt ry natural result of sorrow to see all his labors pan out for so little, or were inspired by righteous indigna tion tha.t he had been so clev erly fooled into brilliant -expec tations by the gold-bug Repub licans who yelled so blatantly for McKinley last campaign. WHICH I-S KICHT? In the News and Observer of the 29th, there was an edi torial headed . "Should heed the party's demand or resign." In this article it is clearly set forth5 that a man who is sent to Congress should tiot be sway ed by his own ideas of what is right but thit "he should either vote as his party dic tates or resign." We were very much struck by the force of the argument until we read the flaming headlines which announced the defeat of the Teller resolution, in the House of Representatives, in the same paper. Tt appears that, with one exception, the R( publi cans in the House voted as: a partyin other words, as their platform dictated. Now, one reading the N? and O's. de nunciation of these men as "slaves driven before a slave drivers knout" would natural ly infer that they had been guilty of some, flagrant 'viola rion of their party's platform. We would like to know why a republican should be called a slave for voting for his plat form,' when under similar cir cumstances a democrat should "either so vote or resign." A Northeast Snow Slorin.

People talk of the good old days or long ago when times were better and money wasn't light. How "would you like to have a dose of old times as they are indicated in the prices copied from an old account took kept ninety years ago in Buncombe county ? ' Having an opportunity recently Rev. R. P. Smith copied some items from such a book in kind rtmem brance of his home paper. The old book is now owned by Mr. S. W. Davidson, . of Swannanoa Valley, Buncombe county. It might have been kept by a blacksmith who ran a store or by a merchant who also ran a smithy. Here , are some items copied under date of Maich 1798 nearly 100 years ago: DEBITS. ' To 16 pounds sugar...... ...... $4 00 To 2 bushels salt.... ........ ..i 3 00 ' To 1 gallon whiskey.. ........ 75 To 1 iron wedge.... v...;...... 50 To laying plowi:....... 50 To 1 pair sheo laces. 50 Toone-harf ard .muslin...... 374 To 1 p--mid p ti r ....... ... 1 no To 10 pounds .'. naiLs... 200" To 1 quire paper., 37 ; To 1 5 pounds sugar and 6 " ' pounds coflee... ........ v.. .... 6 00 CREDITS.

How do you like it ? The price of muslin was out o' sight none was then manufactured in this country, perhaps all imported. Powder at a dollar a pound was too high to burn at Christmas. At 20 cents a pound people couldn't aflord to hit many nails on the head. ."'And people must have had something im portant to write and wanted to write it mighty bad when they paid 37 cents a quire for paper. Why, the Gazette would be glad to sell you all you want in 20 quire lots at 5 cents a quire, and could nearly double its money at that. In other things the contrast with today is not so marked, but in old times when it took a week's work to buy a bushel of salt the contrast is enough to make a body faint. He who in those days could earn the salt that went in his bread ought nor to have been count ed a lazy fellow. - 1 Strong, steady nerves Are needed for success Everywhere.
