According to the blue book there
are about 180,000 large and small
federal offices in this country. '.. No
wonder the Republican party is un
happy. Mr. Johu D. Rockefeller has made
another gift of $1,000000 to the Chi
cago University, making the fourth,
amounting to $4,000,000 in all.
There's nothing small about that
kind of a "feller."
As an evidence that prohibition is
not popular in California candidate
Bid well got only 8.000 votes out of a

A resurvey 'of theboundary line

In Paris they have found a practi
cal use for the chrysanthemum, and
make , a salad out of it. As they
have succeeded in growing them as
large as a fair-sized head of cabbage
it is good that they have been found
good to eat. This is a Japanese
idea borrowed by the Frenchman.
Georgia is rapidly becoming not

The Illinois Central Railroad is
doing considerable for the develop
ment of Southern territory through
which its lines run. It has located a
good many Western people along its
lines, and now it proposes to colonize
50,000 Germans in the Yazoo delta.
This looks like business, and is going
about the immigration question in
the right way.
It is said that Mrs. Noble, wife of
the Secretary of the Interior, has so
little confidence in her memory that
she frequently writes ; postal cards
addressed to herself, and mails them,
reminding her of important engage

discovered the nack of tying a string
around her finger.
According to the figures of those
who keep track of the wool question,
tne clip of this year is estimated at
333,018,405, an increase of 25,
606,898 pounds over last year,
which does not look as if the wool-
growers were looking for a general
smash up of their business when the
Democrats tackle -the tariff.
It is said that copies of the "blue"
book are finding ready sale among
Democrats. . The probabilities are
that a good many of the men who
buy them will, when the slates are
finally made up, be bluer than the

The Norfolk Cotton Exchange
people are complaining that cotton that
ought to go to Norfolk comes to Wil

anyhow. '

The Post Office Department has
made arrangements for a daily mail
service on the Wilmington, Onslow and
East Carolina railroad from Wilmington
to Jacks onsville and intermediate points.
This will prove a great convenience to the
people of Onslow, and no doubt several
new post offices will be established , be
tween here and Jacksonville. It is not
likely, however, that there will be any
serious contest for the honor of presi
ding over these post offices. The
services will begin January, 16th.

RAILROAD NOTES.
Philadelphia Ledger: Under the
leadership of Governor Tillman South
Carolina has made a more radical move
for Government control of the railroads
man any 01 tne western Mates, oy a
bill which the Governor has signed the
absolute control of all the railroads in
the State is put in the hands of a com
mission from whose decisions there is to
be no appeal. The commission itself
will probably, represent the Grange in
terests, and will, presumably, attempt to
lower freight charges in the interest of
tne farmer, l ne experiment may be a
costly one to South Carolina, but will
oe watched with interest by railroad men
and the people of other States. The
results will depend very much upon the
intelligence and fairness of the coramis
stoners. it they should do no more
than prevent unfair discriminations they
may accomplish some erood without
doing any barm; if they act in the inter
est of the shippers against the interest
of the railroad companies, capital will
be withdrawn from the State and the
last condition of the farmer will be worse
than the first.
Atkinson & Bon.
The firm of Atkinson & Manning,
general insurance agents, has been dis
solved by mutual consent, Capt. Edward
Wilson Manning retiring. Col. John
Wilder Atkinson will continue the

nicest boys in Wilmington.
