Who 'Mil Ire our next Governor?
This u,uetion ii now being f requently
akf d, and the answer is tiot easy to
niake, ait hough the knowing(?) ones
!insw?i- very positively. As yet neith
er party has indicated who will be
He candidate for that high office.
The names of several distinguished
gentlemen of each party hate been
suggested for the nomination, but
thus far public sentiment has not
predominated in faror of an one.
The democrats aud repnblicaus alike
seem to bo Rt a loss whom to nomi
nate. Those most prominently men
tioned for the democratic nomination
$re Alexander, Clark, Hoit, Jaivis
ftnd Stcdman (the redder trill please
4ote that, we mention thsse names in
their alphabetical order): and the
five most prominently spoken of for
the republican nomination are Boyd,
Jpockery, Nichols, Prioe aud Russell,
the republican State convention has
Been colled to meet on the 23rd of
May, and the democratic contention
will probably be held iu June. 'Ihese
conventions will be held so long a
!hie before the election, in order to
appo'"t delegates to the national
conventions ?3 we'll as to nominate
fhe caudidatt-i for the State offices.
Besides nominating its candidate
for Governor, each party will also
nominate three candidates for Jus
tices of the Supreme Court, and can
didates for Lieutenant-Governor, At
torney General, Secretary of State,
Superintendent of Public Instruc
tion, Treasurer and Auditor. Thus
far no one seems to be seeking the
nomination for Lieutenant-Governor,
nor have we heard any one suggested
in opposition to the present Secre
tary of State, Attorney General, Su
perintendent of Public Instruction,
3r Treasurer. Only two persons have
a yet, fo far as we know, been men
tioned for State Auditor, and they
sire Mr. N. B. Brotighton, of Raleigh,
and ilr. Duncan E. SIcIver, of Moore
county, who ro ably represented his
Senatorial district in the last Legis
lature. Thr.s far we are pleased to note
Chat no unpleasant feelings have been
aroused between the friends of the
gentlemen wiio are being urged for
the democratic nomination for Gov
eruor, aud we hope that none will be
stirred up. Of course it is right and
proper that the friends of every as
pirant for the nomination should
praise their favorite, but they should
cot disparage his competitois and
thereby furnish weapons and argu
ments for the republicans to use in
the campaign. And we sincerely
hope thV the friends of every aspi
rant will work as zealously for the
election of the nominee whoever he
may be as they now work for the
nomination of their favorite. Every
true democrat ought to be more anx
ious for the success of his party,
than for the personal preferment of
any particular aspirant for office.
Very little ha been paid about the
candidates for Congress in this dis
trict. If Nichols does not get the
republican nomination for Governor,
he will tun again for Congress. It
is very uncertain who will be the
democratic candidate. The friends
of Bunn and Cooke are again urging
be nomination of their favorite.
Some think that Gen. Cox may enter
the race again, and doubtless there
wilL be sevoral other aspirants for
Congressional honors. There is plenty
of time yet, and in due time no doubt
the track will be full of racers.
Tee white people of North Caro
lina are getting tired of paying taxes
to educate colored children. Whether
this feeling ii right or wrong' we will
riot now discuss, but merely state it
as a fact. If it was not for the taxes
paid by the white people,' there
would' not be many public schools
for the colored race. Every year the
.hite people pay thousands and
thousands of dollars for the educa
tion of colored children, and for the
instruction of colored teachers- at the
normal schools r and yet On the day
of election, these very teachers and
the fathers of these children array
themselves in united opposition to
the white people and vote solidly
against thenil I3 it wonder then
that the white people are getting
tired of this sort of thing ?
We ailude to this matter how, in
Srder that oar colored friends may
seriously consider it before the po
litical campaign opens and their
prejudices and passions are aroused
by the harangues of demagogues.
But if they persist in drawing the
ftcolor line" in arraying themselves
fn solid opposition to the white peo
ple .yrhj of coarse the white people
must accept tlie issue and staffd in

Washington. Feb. 3rd, 1888.
In tbeir frantic effort to mauufao-

publicans of the House unwittingly

received from the Printer, and in alui one arm are terribly lacerated,
the document room iis completely
indexed for use and refereuce.
ihen. upon mot ion of Twtr. Springer,
the investigation was extended so as
to iuciude ihe term of Mr. Rounds,
(the late Republican printer), despite
the protect of the minority against
investigating the doings of a dead
! man.
It is probable that the fires of
pnrti8au strife wiil soon blaze fiercely
forth in the House over the White
Lowry election contest from Indiana.
Tho Democratic majority of the Com
mittee on elections have agreed to a
report, recommending the unseating
of White, on the ground that he fail
ed lo become naturalized within the
time specified by the law he being
a native of Scotland. The Committee
further recommended that the seat
be declared vacant, as there was no
legal election.
Should the B?pubiieans lose the
seat, which is almost certain in the
event of a new election, that party
would be unable to control the India
na delegation, aud thus would lose
their nower to elect a President of
the United States, if the election
should be thrown upon the House.
Thev have but one maiority of the
vote by states. From such a stand
point, this content assumes national
importance and will be one of the
great events of the session.
Aspiring statesmen have showered
tariff bills to the number of three
hundred upon the Ways and Means
Committee. Still the astute member,
whose datv it is to present these
measures, will find little trouble in
separating the wheni from the chaff.
As yet the Louisiana delegation
have been unable to come to an agree
ment as to what shall be done with
suar iu the new tariff bill This
auxiouslv awaited measure, by the
way. is uemg very cureinny consider
ed," and it is thought by those in
position to know most about its
character that it will pass the House
and be satisfactory to the country.
Although the proposition to reduce
letter postage to one ceut had its fate
sealed for the time by an adverse
Senate report, the subject, like Ban
cpio's ghoBt, 'will not dowu". More
penny postage bills are being pre
pared aud will be introduced and
voted upon again during this Con
gress.
The Senate has again toted for the
opening of Congress on October loth,
and the closing of the short session
on April the 15th, and also for chang
ing Inauguration day to April 30th.
Should this pass the House, being a
Constitutional amendment, it would
still need to be ratified by three
fourths of the State Legislatures be
fore it could become a law.
Iu the House there is auother bill
which provides that tho Congress
shall open ou the first, Monday in
Jan. and the time of final adjourn
ment shall be at noon on the 31st of
December. This would practically
make a continuous session for the two
years term, with oniy such recesses
as the two Houses might agree to
So it is impossible to know just what
the new law will dually be, but there
is little doubt that the existing order
of things with reference to the official
terms of the President, Vice Presi
dent, Senators and Representatives
will be changed by the present Con
gress. A Serious Hiot.
Hhemasdoai, Pa., Feb. 3. A tre
mendous riot broke out here to-night.
When the miners in collieries which
recently resumed operations quit for
the day, they were attacked by crowds
;f idle miners, principally Polanders,
and were defended by the city police
and officers of the' Coal and Iron Po
lice. In a few minutes the entire
town was in possession of the rioters,
aud any. number of broken heads and
bruised bodies could be found. The
police were overrun by numbers, and
the offices of two Justices of the
Peace were wrecked and ail prisoners
capturod by the officers were libera
ted. The sheriff has sworn in three
fire companies as part of his po&se,
and the city authorities have passed
an order for the enrollment of special
officers. Nobody has been killed, so
far as is known, although pistols were
used freely by the mob.
Pittsburg, February 6. There has
been no further trouble at the Solon
iron works since the serious outbreak
on Saturday. The mill was closed
yesterday, but was started up this
morning with an increased force of
non-union men. Over one hundred
men, all of them colored, are now at
work, and the firm expect to hare
ei ery department in operation within
the next few days. The mills and
yards are closely guarded by sentinels
and policemen, tnduo person, not
even a boy, i3 allowed upon the prem
ises, unless he can provo he has busi
ness there. The strikers are very bit
ter, and another collision is feared
when the non-TJnion men leave., the
mill this evening. Those in authority
and those who have the coolest heads
advise the working men not to molest
nor interfere with the colored men.
but others cry for revenge. They
threaten death to the non-Union men,

Six Children Roasted.
Columbia, S. C, Feb. 3. The six
children of Lester SiugWtary, a col

burned to death last night. The pa
rents locked them up in the house
about seven o'clock, and went off to
a negro church about two miles away,
where a religious revival was in pro
gress. During their abseuce the
house caught on fire and was burned
to the ground. The six children
perished in the flames. The oldest
child was a girl about thirteen years

Strikes Causing Suffering.
Reading, Pa., Feb. 5. The shutting
down ot so many furnaces, ft want
of coal, has caused misery in an un
expected quarter. There being no
demand for ore, many of the iron ore
miners along the East Pennsylvania
Railroad have closed down. Miners
who have large families received but
seventy-five to ninety cents per day,
and consequently even when working
are in almost abject poverty. About
thirty' of them with their, families have
been compelled to seek admittance to
Berks nud Lehigh poor-houses until
work is resumed.
