The Tammany braves assembled ; . ! ice on the Fourth and entered a ringing protest against the Lodge :'i.r-' e bill, a protest which ought to In: taken up and rung from one end t the country to the other. The Augusta Chronicle thinks that Mr. Blaine would have made a bet trr President than Mr. Harrison. If tins was intended as a compliment t' Mr. Blaine, the Chronicle didn't in li.ilge in much exaggeration. A petition to Congress has been started in Colorado to buy Valley i-'orge and set it apart as a National Park. The fellows who are interested m V alley Forge real estate have started their petition a long way from home. T he latest Republican ticket talked about is Blaine and Butterworth. As a P. B. combination this may do, but Ihitterv.-orth isn't worth as much on the ticket as he would have been if he hadn't fizzled out so and voted for the McKinley tariff bill after so vig orously and manfully denouncing it. if the Republican statesmen find it pretty warm in Washington they should remember tha't the farmers in 'he country who are raising crops to Py the appropriations which these statesmen are making, find it pretty hot in their fields, and will probably make it hotter later in the fall for 'he- other fellows. Clay county, West Virginia, is af tiictcd with a fatal epidemic, from which many people have died, simi lar to one which prevailed in the mountainous sections of that State a year or two ago. The trouble seems to be in the water of streams, wells and springs, which in dry sea sons becomes poisoned by mineral jr other substances. rin-ir -it I HE VOL. XLVI.-NO. 91. Senator Sherman does not spend much time at the summer resorts. He is one of those men who is for tunately endowed with a large amount of refreshing coolness, no matter how high the mercury may climb, and always carries it about with him. It was this doubtless which prevented a violent alterca tion between him and Senator Quay at a recent Senatorial caucus, when Mr. Quay boldly charged him with treachery. Louise Michel announces her purpose to found nihilst colony in this country. Please don't, Louise. Let us wipe out the Republican party before you do that. Two ni hilistic organizations will be too much to inflict upon this suffering country at one time. After we get rid of the Republican nihilists we think we can manage your crowd. The New York Post asserts that the "educational classes" are opposed to free silver. Silver money may be good enough for ignorant, common folks, but the "educated" who were schooled in gold-bug academies, and whose principal avocation is count ing up interest on money loaned to the uneducated, must have dainty gold. Things are not as they should be among the white men of South Caro lina when Senator Hampton is hoot ed at a public meeting, and when at another meeting of the Tillman and anti-Tillman men at Winnsborough, last Monday, a hundred pistols were in the air and bloodshed narrowly avoided. That is not the way to win. This country can't boast of a big army, but when it comes to a pen sion roll it can confidently invite any of the effete monarchies of the old work to show up.

The Signal Service observer at Southport reports the total loss of the Dutch barque Pauline, last Saturday on the coast about 35 miles below South port. The master of the vessel came up to Southport Sunday. He reports that the Pauline was on a voyage from Apalachicola, Fla., to a port in Hol land, with a cargo of square timber. She sprung a leak last Saturday, became unmanageable and went ashore in Long Bay, S. C, two miles south of Cherry Grove. She went ashore at high water, under part sail, and is hard and fast. She had five feet of water when she struck and is now full. The vessel will prove a total loss, but some of the cargo may be saved, only at great cost, how ever. The Pauline is a vessel of about 575 tons. The Blackfiah. Excursion. Owing to a misunderstanding, the re port having gained currency that the Sylvan Grove would make no trip yes terday,1 the Monday excursion to the Blackfish Grounds was not so well at tended as usual. Those who did go, however, had rare sport, catching a very large number of fish, many of them un usually fine. Those who went to "The Rocks" also had good luck. Although the crowd was small Capt. Harper was iust as attentive and accommoda ting as he would have been had the boat been filled with fishermen. There will be another of these popular excursions next Monday. One of the incidents of the trip yesterday was a" magnificent wa terspout at sea, which was seen from the Grove at a distance of about four miles. Weather Forecasts. The following are the weather fore casts for to-day: For Virginia and North Carolina fair weather, followed by showers, and south westerly winds; stationary temperature except in western North Carolina slight ly cooler. For South Carolina and Georgia show ers, and southerly wrnds, stationary tem perature except in the extreme southern South Carolina, and extreme northern Georgia, warmer. Cotton Belt Bulletin.

Pender Democratic Convention. The Democrats of Pender met in con vention at Burgaw, July 4, for the pur pose of sending delegates to the State, Judicial and Congressional Conventions. The Convention was called to order by J. T. Bland, Esq., Chairman of the County Executive Committee, and duly organ ized by electing Mr. W. M. Hand, of Burgaw, permanent Chairman, and R. J. Durham, Secretary. The following resolutlorrwas adopted: Resolved, That we, the people of his county, his lifetime associates and friends, have watched the career of Chas. W. McClammy with delight and pride; that his able opposition to the taxing of agricultural products at the behest of millionaire manufacturers, as set forth in the minority report upon the pure leaf lard bill; his stern resistance to the newly attempted demonetization of sil ver by despot Reed and his followers, both by vote and speech; his satirical speech upon the McKinley tariff bill, with which a continent rang; his tribuie to the gifted Cox, in which he showed himself to be the peerof the most elo quent orators who laid upon that im mortal grave their wreaths of immor telles: his bill to loan money to our toil ing people at the lowest rate of interest, and thus admit them to the exclusive privileges so long enjoyed by the banks and moneyed classes, at the same time providing a fund for the education of the rising generation and furnishing a vol ume of legal tender currency sufficient for our business needs, thus giving higher values for products so long below the cost of production, enabling us to pay our indebtedness in money of a value like that in which it was created, a mea sure, in our judgment, unapproached and unapproachable by any yet proposed for our relief; and, in fine, whose every act, consistent with his past devotion to the people's welfare and power, have forever enshrined him in our hearts, and we hereby pledge him our most grateful support, and instruct our delegates to the Congressional Convention to vote as a unit always for Charles W. McClammy as our only choice for Congressman from the Third North Carolina District. The delegates to the Judicial Conven tion were instructed to cast their votes as a unit for Hon. E. T. Boykin, of Sampson county. The number of delegates to which the county is entitled were appointed to the State, Congressional and Judicial Conventions. The following are the delegates to the State' Convention: T. J. Armstrong. G. H. Bryant, J. F. Moore, L. C. Powers, T. J. Lee, J. C. Broadhurst, J. D. Lewis, G. W. Corbett. S. S. Satchwell. A resolution was adopted instructing the delegates to insist upon the full representation to which the county is entitled in the several Conventions. Also, a resolution approving and com mending the zeal, energy and ability displayed by J. T. Bland, Chairman of the County Democratic Executive Com mittee, for the past two years. The Convention then adjourned. It was one of the most pleasant, quiet, harmonious and enthusiastic sessions ever witnessed in the county. The Scotland Neck township Democratic Convention, held July 5, endorsed Hon. W. H. Kitchen for Con gress from the Second District. no CITY AFFAIRS. BOARD OF AUDIT AND FINANCE AND BOARD OF ALDERMEN. Kegular Monthly Meetings Financial Matters Heports of Committees The G-amewell Fire Alarm, etc. The,Board of Audit and Finance met yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The report of the special Committee Messrs, W. R. Kenan and Wm. Calder on the proposed purchase of a fire-alarm was read and adopted. The report is as follows: Your committee, to whom was re ferred the communication of the Board of Aldermen of April 7th, 1890, notify ing this Board of their acceptance of the proposal of the Gamewell Fire Alarm Co. to sell to the city their plant now established here, and rented from them for the past four years, with ten addi tional alarm boxes, for the sum of $7,500. and asking the concurrence of this Board with their action, respectfully report, that we have carefully inquired as to the value of said plant, and the cost of maintaining and renewing the same, and are of the opinion that it would be much more advantageous to the city to continue to rent a system than to purchase one at such a price, or even at a somewhat lower figure. It had been intimated that the Game well Co. would at once remove their plant if the city declined to purchase; but an examination of the contract made with them February 8th, 1886, discloses the fact that the agreement then entereed into with them is per petual, so far as the said company is concerned, and can only be terminated at the pleasure of the city or upon a failure to pay the stipulated rental, and that the city has the right to add any number of boxes, located wherever it may determine, upon the payment of a further moderate rental per box. We have also enquired as to other systems, and aie of the opinion that one quite as good can be purchased for a much less sum than the one named in this communication of the Board of Al dermen, if it be decided that it is more advantageous to buy than to rent. We therefore recommend the adoption of the following: Resolved, That this Board declines to concur in the action of the Board of Al dermen of April 7th, 1890, in regard to the purchase of the piant of the Game well Fire Alarm Company. (Signed) Wm. Calder, W, R. Kenan. One hundred and eight coupons, amounting to $2,934, which had been redeemed and cancelled, were burned in the presence of the Board. Bills for current expenses, amounting to $6,109.19 were audited and approved. hoard of aldermen. The.Board of Aldermen met in the afteTOon at 4 o'clock with all the mem bers present and Mayor Fowler in the chair. The committee on lights, through Al derman Post, reported ten additional electric lamps put in service on the 1st of July. Alderman Morton reported the con tract for rebiulding the wharf at the old fish market awarded to Hanby & Rus sell, at $800, and the contract for repair ing. Front Street market house awarded to.Jas. F, Post, at $764. On motion the awards were approved. The reports of the Chief of the Fire Department and the Superintendent of Health were read and ordered filed. The communication from the Board of Audit and Tinance in reference to the proposed purchase of a fire-alarm plant (as it appears in the published pro ceedings of that Board) was read and ordered filed. A petition from Adam Brown (color ed) was read, stating that he had ob tained permission from the Committee on Markets to put a stand in front of his store at the market house on Front street, and after putting it up had been arrested and fined ten dollars in the City Court. He asked remission of the fine and to be allowed to replace the stand. The Mayor stated that two petitions were embodied in the communication, and that the first petition was out of order, On motion of Alderman Pearsall the two were considered separately. After explanations from Alderman Hicks, of the Market Committee, who said that upon application of Brown, and after due consideration, the commit tee had decided to allow him to put up a stand outside his store , and expected to bring the matter before the Board and get its concurrence, but in the meantime Brown had been arrested; Alderman Smith moved that the Mayor be requested to grant a remission of the fine, and the motion was adopted. On motion of Alderman Smith, the other petition, that Brown be allowed to erect the stand, was not granted. A motion by Alderman Bell to have improvements made to the sidewalk on the east side of Seventh street, between Dock and Castle, was adopted. The improvement of Nixon street was also ordered, on motion of Alderman Morton. Alderman Pearsall expressed him self as v opposed to spending money in making temporary improve ments with sawdust, etc. He submitted a motion that the Mayor be authorized and directed to advertise for proposals to macadamize Market street from Fourth street to the city limits. A long discussion ensued, when, the question being called, Alderman Pear sail's motion was adopted." On motipn of Alderman Craft the chairman of the Permanent Improve ment Committee was instructed to cor respond with Congressmen McClammy and Rowland in regard to the prospect of obtaining an appropriation from the General Government for a macadamized roadway from Fourth street to the Na tional Cemetery. The Committee on Fire Department, Mayor Fowler Chairman, reported, that they have thoroughly investigated the matter as to the advisability of the purchase of a fire-alarm system for the city of Wilmington; and after consulting the proper authorities and getting all information that could be procured upon the subject would respectfully recommend the purchase of a three cir cuit system to be furnished by the Gamewell Fire Alarm Co. at $6,500. The report of the Chief and Assistant Chief of the Fire Department on this matter was also read, as follows: Gentlemen: At the request of your Finance and Fire Committees, we have examined into the merits of the differ ent system of fire alarms exhibited in this city, and in obedience to their com mands beg leave to make the following report: After consulting disinterest ed electricians as to the con struction of the various fire alarm boxes and indicators, and being familiar with the requirements, and taking everything into consideration, we respectfully recommend the Gamewell fire alarm system as being best adapt ed to our wants. Very respectfully, Martin Newman, Chief W. F. D. Jno. M. Cazaux, Assistant Chief. The report and recommendation of the committee were adopted. Mayor Fowler stated his belief that the census of Wilmington, as recently reported, was incorrect. He had writ ten to the Commissioner, asking that the official figures be furnished to him, and he suggested the advisability of making an appropriation to defray the expense of having a recount. On motion of Alderman Smith, an ap propriation of $100 was made for the purpose of having a correct enumeration made of the population of the city. The Board then adjourned. COUNTY MATTERS. Meeting of Board of Commissioners Liquor Licenses Reward for Capture of Highwaymen, etc. The Board of County Commissioners met yesterday in regular session, and transacted the usual routine of business. The Treasurer submitted his monthly report showing balances on hand as fol lows: To credit of school fund, $9, 799.32; to credit of general fund, $18, 668.86. The Register of Deeds reported the sum of $10.45 received for marriage licenses during the month of June. It was ordered that a reward of $50 be offered fer the apprehension and con viction of any party or parties con cerned in highway robberies in the county. Several persons upon application, were granted permission to list their taxes. The Board assessed the New Han over Transit Company for taxes as fol lows: Number of miles of railroad track three valuation $9,000; locomotive, one, $2,500; cars, four, $900; one plat form car, &c, $250. Total, $12,650. Sixty-two licenses were granted to re tail liquor dealers in the city, and seven to dealers outside the city. The Board adjourned to meet on Monday next to assess the property of the Wilmington, Onslow & East Caro lina Railroad ComNpany and the Ocean View Railroad Company. Wilmington & Onslow Railroad. The Newbern Journal 'of Sunday says: On Saturday Messrs. H. A. Whiting, General Manager, Judge Henry E. Knox General counsel, Capt. F. L. Pittman, chief engineer, and Dr. R. W. Ward, resident director, of the Wilmington, Onslow & East Carolina Railroad were in the city prospecting for and locating the line of the road from Jacksonville to Newbern. The gentlemen of Denver, Colorado, associated with them, who came over the line from Wilmington, left on the early morning train for the North. There is no longer any doubt about the building of this line between New bern and Wilmington. The purchase of the Norfolk & Edenton Railroad by the Pennsylvania system, the determination to bridge the Chowan river and come on to Wilmington and Newbern settles all difficulties and solves all doubt as re gards the New York, Norfolk & Charleston, of which the Wilmington, Newbern & Onslow is the most impor tant link.
