Third party men have penetrated the
delusion and are moving back into
the Democratic fold.
North Carolina audiences listen
respectfully-to Gen. Weaver and the
female part of the combination, but
they can't resist making the welkin
ring for Cleveland when the perfor
mance closes.
Tom Watson, of Georgia, can bal
ance himself on a single plank and
"stand on any platform," but when the
boys shout for Cleveland, he can't
stand that. He gets mad as a wet
hen, gathers his traps and stalks away.
"Cyclone" Davis, the Third party
rousicatorof Texas, whom Cleveland
bounced from an lndian agency "for
cause," is a red-haired hustler. AIL
red-hairedmen are not crooked, but
when they do get crooked they get
as crooked as a grape vine.
The "old-time" Republicans con
trolled the Republican State Conven
tion at Columbia,S. C, yesterday.
The "reformers' were nowhere. ; Of
course. Nothing with "reform"
hitched on to it would stand a ghost
of a chance in a Republican Conven
tion. Statistician Peck, of New York,
who conjured up that statistical
boost for the McKinley tariff, says he
is a New York Sun Democrat which
means that he believes in protection,
and was doing his level best to help
it along when he issued that report,
and burned the papers ' on which it
was based.
The fusion between the Democrats
and the Third party in Kansas seems
to be taking. Eighteen independent,
j Republican papers in the State sup
port it vigorously. Some of the
straightout Republican organs feel
blue , over the prospect and admit
that the fusion means a walloping
for the Republicans.

The New York Advertiser, recent
convert to McKinleyism, asfcs if there
is any other co untry where the aver
age cost of comfortable living is less
than it is here while the wages are as
good. Well, the average cost of liv-
ing is less in nearly all theEuropean
countries, but wages are better in
this country as they always were,
long before the present protective
tariff system was ever thought" of.
As a rule wages are higher" in the
unprotected than they are in the pro
tected industries.
Charles A. Wetmore, a grape grow
er in California, who for years has
been a pronounced Republican, has
had the scales knocked off his eyes,
and joined the Democratic-party. In
his parting remarks to the Republi
can party he hit the nail on the head
thus: "This country needs no spc
cial laws to protect the: rich. The
poor man, the 'under j dog in the
fight,' is the man who needs' protec
tion." - . r
An Iowa agricultural journal says
there is a great rush of land seekers
into that State, and that in many
counties land has advanced from $5
to $10 per acre in six months. We
fear this agricultural journal is
stretching it. But if the prospect of
the State becoming Democratic has
this happy effect, wouldn't Hawkeye-
dom get on a big boom if she was
thoroughly Democratic ?
Mrj B. F. Brownwell, superinten
dent of the Batavia Canning Com
pany, heretofore a strong Republi
can, has announced himself for
Cleveland. The McKinley tariff has
increased the cost of tin to his com;
pany $10,000, and he says the Amer
ican tin-plate stutt is an a gauzy
fraud anyway.
The popular vote for President in
1884 was 10,048,461. In 1888 it was
11,388,038. This year it is estimated
to reach 14,000,000.
The rubber tip on pencils was a

RAILROAD NOTES.
The traffic in south bound freight
has. increased at a wonderful rate JatelyJ
and extra trains have been put on, on!
both the Richmond & Danville and the:
beaboard Air Line. Un Saturday there;
were three south bound freight trains on
the latter road for points between Mon-j
roe and 'Atlanta and beyond.
The railroad mileage of the world
at the beginning of 1892 was 385.805
miles, according to a statement of the
late railroad congress at St. Petersburg
Of this total 167,755 miles were credited
to the United States, but this is nearly
3.000 miles less than the actual total.
which poor places at 170.6U2. It is
probable that the figures for the other
countries are rather less than over the
correct amount, being based on returns
generally behind the times, but the to
Ul is immense and the figures are won
derfully suggestive.
The dwindling list of narrow gauge
railroads in this country has again been
decreased by the widening to standard
gauge of the -East Line and Red River
railroad in Texas. For some years this
little road has consisted of both broad
and narrow gauge, having 32 miles of
track of standard width and 121 miles of
3-feet gauge, but a few hours' work the
other day sufficed to widen the narrow
track and retire from service the rolling
stock which was devised in the days not
so long! ago, when the narrow gauge was
rapidly Igrowing in mileage and a great
truntc line system was in contemplation.
Capt. Alexander Home How Things Look

Capti S. B. Alexander arrived at

from Robeson county, of which he and
Mr. Sol. C. Weill, of Wilmington, have
just completed a thorough canvass.
Capt. Alexander, the Observer says,
speaks hopefully of the situation in that
sectionJ Hs says things looked dark
when he and Mr. Weill began work, but
there has been a marked improvement
within the past four weeks; the Demo-
cracrats have waked up and are working
with might and main; the lukewarm are
getting; "hotter" in the Democratic
cause, and altogether he thinks vRobe
son will be found on the right side

10th of next month Capt. Alexander and
Mr. Weill will begin a canvass of Rich
mond county and all the counties beyond
there.
A Small Fire.
Fire broke out yesterday morning

building on South Front street adjoin
ing the market house and occupied by
Mr. Hiram Moore, dealer in fruits, vege
tables and other country produce. Mr.
Moore's stock was almost completely
destroyed, but the loss is probably
covered by the insurance, amounting to
$400. j The building is owned by Mr. C.

CANADAY'S CHECKERED CAREER.
Some Further Particulars Concerning: His
- Checkered Career His Suicide Not a
Surprise.
In the following, from the Philadel
phia Times, some additional particulars
are given concerning tne late w. r.
Canaday which have appeared in no
other paper we have seen : ; -
Another note was left by the suicide,
said, to have been addressed to a Miss
Moore, which note the police have and
will not make public until the inquest.
Miss Moore is a young lady of excellent
family and good reputation, ' whom
Colonel Canaday knew in North Caro
lina. She is a daughter of Judge Moore,
for many years on the bench dt one" of
the higher State Courts in North Caro
lina, and is living here with her sister,
whose husband is assistant curator of
the National Museum.
Colonel Canaday was a Confederate
. soldier and came into public life with the
advent of Mahone and Riddleberger
from Vireinia. He was the Southern
manager of Senator Sherman for some
years prior to that period, and was
chosen Sergeant-at-Arms ofthe Senate
upon the earnest solicitation of Mr. Sher
man. He was a close political friend of
Mahone and Riddleberger for some
time, and then they became enemies.' It
was he who took charge of Riddleberger
at one time when the latter arose in an
intoxicated condition and insisted upon
speaking on the floor of the Senate.
Riddleberger threatened to kill Colonel
Canaday for his interference, and never
forgave him. Canaday '3 trouble with
Mahone grew out of business relations.
Mahone was one of the Senatorial pool
which invested largely in creosote works
at Wilmington, N. C, managed by Can
aday, and which made a dismal failure.
The mismanagement of Canaday. refer
red to by the Senator as dishonesty,"
was the direct cause of Colonel Cana
day 's retirement as Sergeant-at-Arms.
During the campaigns of 1880 and 1884
Colonel Canaday almost carried North
Carolina's vote in convention in his
pocket. He cast it solid for Senator
Sherman.
After the campaign of 1854 he began
to lose cast with his own people, and
finally lost all political prestige. When
he returned to private life here and
opened an office for law practice in the
executive department and before Con
gress he had lost all political power.
Nearly all of the old Senatorial
friends he once had had deserted hitn
except John Sherman. When Colonel
Canaday lelt the senates employ he
owed quite a number of individual
ckbts, "borrowed money," to employes
of the Senate, and his creditors there
added their mite to his rapid decline in
public favor. The Colonel became al
most an outcast. He had little practice.
seemed despondent and was by many
sincerely pitied.
His suicide to-day, while shocking,
was not a surprise. His public career
was checkered, and yet it was not with
out redeeming features. He was a stead
fast friend, but unfortunate in his calcu
lations. He was energetic and pains
taking. Everybody here Knew him. and
at one time there were few men in Wash
ington who wielded more power. He
was a great admirer of Senator John J.
Ingalls, of Kansas, and it is probable
that up to his last hour there were few
men who would have gone farther to
have done him a personal kindness jthan
the great orator from the grasshopper
State.

To Reside ;in "Wilmington.
The Raleigh News and Observer says :
Mrs. T. R. Fentress and daughter, Miss
Blanche, left yesterday afternoon for
Wilmington, which city they will make
their future home, with Mr.. Robert L,
Fentress. Their many friends regret to
part with them, but congratulate the
people of the "City by the Sea" on the
accession of two such worthy and noble
Christian ladies in their midst as perma
nent residents. Mr..H. L. Fentress is an
old Raleigh boy and has been in the
drug business at Wilmington for ten
years, and has been quite successful.
Schooner Lorenzo Lost.
The small coasting schooner Lorenzo,
Capt. Moore, plying between Wilming
ton and Tar Landing on New river, in
Onslow county, sprung a leak while on
her trip from Wilmington Tuesday last,
and sunk in New river. She had a
quantity of merchandise on board,
which, with the vessel, is reported to be
a complete ioss. The Lorenzo is owned
by Col. S. B. Taylor, of Catherine Lake.
OPERA HOUSE.
George "Wilson's Minstrels Last Night.
The famous George Wilson Minstrels
gave their refined performance at the
Opera House last night to a large audi
ence. To say that every one was pleased
would be the least that could be said.
Almost from the 'beginning to the end
the audience was kept in a continuous
roar of laughter and applause.
The company has probably the finest
minstrel show that has ever been given
in Wilmington. It is evenly balanced
and well supported by a collection of the
best blacked artists and comedians that
can be well collected together on the
Americajx-stage.
It would be useless to try to do credit
to each individual member of the troupe.
George Wilson, of course, was the
principal and leading attraction during
the whole evening. The singing -was-fine
beyond comparison. Mr. Charles
Goodyear, Mr. Wilson's popular assis
tant, is worthy to have the honors divid
ed between himself and Mr. Wilson.
The trio Wilby, Pearle and Keys in
an exclusively new specialty introducing
marvelous and startling athletic feats
was . beyond description great. The
trapeze comedians, Barso and Roberts,
elicited great applause.
Latel and Grevi, the ''musical cham
pions," in their musical creation entitled
"Bill and I," showed well their wonder
ful musical talents which have won for
them the great reputatton they enjoy.
The performance ended with Cbas.
Good year's original skit, "Bi-chloride of
Gold," composed of several members of
the troupe and capping the climax.
The curtain fell amid deafening ap
plause, and everybody went away saying
that Geo. Wilson's Minstrels was the
biggest show of the kind that has ever
been presented in'our city.
The jokes were all new, spicy and re
fined, which is something unusual to
minstrel shows. Wilmington theatre
goers will ever welcome Geo. Wilson
and his troupe.
SUPERIOR COURT. '

pies the Time of the Court A Verdict
