After a year' we *: were perauaded by some of oaf pa il irons to reduce it to $1.00, on the . ground that many new subscribers Would come in. They never tame tintil we put the paper bach to its . original price. They have been coming ever since, and do not hesi tate to come. But nopubliaher can " afford to make a business of publish =* iog an all home prointed 28 column paper for $1.25 per year. ' Very of ten there are as many 22 columns of reading matter in this paper and there are^never less than 20.

BREEDING MOBS. >-: ■ , Some time ago & School teacher pamed Shuford, it is alleged, eom mitted taps upon one of his, aehool girls in McDowell eonn ty. He threatened the girl with death if site reported it, and so her parents did - not learil of the affair until Shuford" had left the community. A few days since, the father of tlie girl had Shuford arrested and imprisoned up on the charge. ' It afterwards ap pears tint Shuford was released from prison hy the magistrate, Upon the promise that he w<>ttld leave the State. This was a high han dad piece of business on the part of that magistrate. By what authority did that magistrate release a man, charged with so grave offence? ~ If .t£ere was nothing in the charge for further investigation, by what au thority did that magistrate exact Bach promise from the arrested man? That magistrate should be, held and dealt with according to his fTdeserts. Such conduct of a magis trate will only help to breed more mobs. We are in for holding up the hands of the court* when they try to do half right The love of country and the love of liberty r teach all fan minded men to respect -• thn courts, even when they honestly ‘" blonder, but when they wantonly . .and willingly commit such acts as idle above, it is to be doubted wheth er they serve their times better than mobs.

Causes -j produce effects and these effects, be- ; come new euuses. So the calling of Harrison t-i Luo Presidency and liia • arty to power, wore effects that are j now a mul titude of causes operating on the polical destiny of this con.it ! try in. the near future. In the be ! ginning the Republican party is grateful hi the sources that hare contributed to recall it to power ! and its gratitude can Only be esti mated by its opportutitiea while in power. If the country goes to the dogs, the Republican party is going to reward its friends. • Who are its friends? They are the Grand Ar my, the money devils and those hu man hyenas who like to prowl men tally arouud in' Confederate grave yards. The Republican party has an higher mission to-day than to work for these three classes of peo ple, who are the products of a war ot more than a quarter at a centnry • •" - This party has fastened upon the country an enormous tariff for the direct benefit of less than one mil lion ont of sixty millions of people. The surplus gathering in the Na tional Treasury from this tariff is being divided among 500,000 pen sioners at the North and 800,000 ; more are asking for pensions^ These hyenas like Shepherd, Foraker and Sherman are representingthe Sooth in * perpetual state of rebellion. The Republican party not having implicit faith in these agencies to protect hnd perpetuate its ; power, has admitted two or three Republi can territories as States into tbe Union. This party knows that its power is: not inspired race populi;! that there is a million majority of ' \ white voters in the country that is ' j opposed to it. It is only a question ; of time how long the' country can ; endure the official tenure < of the \ present Republican party. i j The balance of political power is fco-day in the hands of the Western | fanner and granger, whose posses sions are mortgaged from the: ton gues at his fireside to the corner tree of his land. "He is a bitter Republican partisan and is blind to tKe true causes of his condition. Unlike the floaters and “blocks of fire,” he is sturdy and honest and ean bede pended npon to obey his convic tions but how can" he he reached? Why the Southern farmer, whose condition is no better, should seek an alliance with, him. The hus bandmen of the South and West > Ought to be mutual friends. They are both in misery. Let the Far 1 mens' Alliance of the South unite ! with the Western Grange. The South can hope for no political de liverance from each States as New York and Indiana, where the. strength of each party is nearly equal and where men areup for the highest bidder or ean be, driven like dumb cattles. Unless the men of convictions and honesty ean be mode to know one another and can be made to understand the wrongs they are victims of, there is the strongest probability that the Re publican party wdl continue its reign of waste, profligacy and op pression. j Wrsare very glad to see in the : Henderson Gold Leaf that Thad ' Manning its editor is not going to '-leave the State1 as announced some ! time ago. He is going to remain ! with his paper and enlarge it. Man ning is a ^gentleman, an excellent editor and his departure from the State would be a lass to it and its journalism.

The old State is constantly assert ng its worthiness of pride and ap jreciation. Every intelligent man n North Ofcroliua knows it is in nnny respects a great State, inhabi :ed by as sturdy, as honest and as brave a people as there are to be found. It is how the policy and a good one too to stimulate State pride, by heraldingthe virtues of the people, their splendid deeds in his tory and the possibilities of -'the State. Tbe praise of all that—that is genuinely good in North Carolina is a duty that every North Caroli nian should perform for his chil dren, . No great people ever lived who despised their homes, their fire sides and their neighbors. What ever North Carolinians lack of lov ing North Carolina, they surely lack that essential characteristic of be coming a great state. . But invulnerable pride and de serving self-esteem are based upon truth, North Carolina should be known as she is. If it rtins good people outside other borders upon learning the truth, why let them go; Let us be fjank with burselves. Do you know that We are of the very lowest on the intellectual scale in the whole Union? -We spend less for education with the exception of two other States, fewer patents are granted to our people and they read fewer books and do tailor their newspapers.^ North Carolina has smaller mental appe tite than any other commonwealth in the country. Her people are not engaged to any appreciable extent1 in either science, art or literature. In the Patent Office reports of ,ihe government, this State is at the bottom of the list, notwithstanding a North Carolinian invented the Gatling gun, a North Carolinian invented the Howe sewing machine (are believe) and, it was a citizen of North Carolina who invented the Cade rail road telegraph. The agricultural implements of our farms, the utensils of our shops and mills and kitchens were conceiv ed in other people’s brains; Nearly every American book in our libra ries are the worka of other men. This is due more to mental servi tude and indifference, than to down right poverty. Wearenotathought-| fui, investigating, inquisitive peo ple. We are waiting—waitingfor 'other people and capital. We are as honest and as good as other folks, bat,we let them do too much of oar thinking, (s not most of the progr ress made in the State to-day imita tive—a reflex of other poshing ing communitiesV Ton never saw a thinking community but that loved and praised its own works. Where people are pronnd of their minds and their intellectual achievements yon. will can never find such a pain ful admission as this in one of their very best papers: “No newspaper has ever been published in North Carolina that was able to pay for its contributions upon literature, science, &c. Here tofore politics alone have kept newspapers going. * Literature has few votaries. Science languishes and men of parts cannot add to their incomes as contributors to North Carolina newspepers until the State becomes more appreciar live of home newspapers, take more pride in home writers, and the field of journalism enlarges very greatly. When State dailies have six, eight or ten thousand subecri dcts ana weeanes as many or more, they may be able set aside a {and for the encouragement of letters} But until then papers most be eonl tented to work on narrow lines."—j Wilmington Messenger* t That painfol paragraph , says North Carolina has a poor and easi ly satisfied mental appetite.

' ;v 7 , *'.vrljarw:;3^iUt Ci*T ' a DivoRcfj case. Randolph Ceunty Has a Sensational , 'Case in Court JT<I» C*»*. R’orkiHAM, - - A very novel case came before the court in Ashboro this afternoon. There was not simply one “woman at the bottom of it, but two wo» men. Tbe notion was to annual the marriage of Sallie Albright to Dr. J. K. Lee, on the ground that Lee hid another wife still living. A more sensational affair has not occurred since the days of Bowling and Bran nock, which some people m Guilford have not forgotten. The story is as follows. . , J. K. Lee, a native of Miss., and a graduate of the Medical College of Louisiana, came to Caswell county and after a time’ removed to .Ran dolph county, where, in 1882, he married Alice Vestal, a pretty young girl, who doea not even now uppear tube over 22 yeareof age. Dr. Lee became vmy popular as a phyii cian, and - drew around him a large number of friends. Meanwhile, however, there seems tu UttVO UtJtSU- U OCbkUb wuuwic brewing which at last emitted sparks and then grew to a flame, although for the ten months during which the doctor and his young bride lived together she is said to have represen ted his treatment of her as excep tion allykind and good when speak ihg of him to their neighbors, Lee however, went to Illinois in ' 1887 for the purpose of procuring a di vorce from his recalcitrant wife, and when, according to his Iliinoise at torney, the legal period had expired, Lee returned to Rardolph and adver tised in one of the newspapers that he had been duly discharged from his wife here and was free to marry again. A bout this time, as the sto ry goes, Dr. Lee was thrown into the company of Miss' Sallie Albright, daughter of Rev fl. A. Albright, oi Randolph county, and Miss Albright on the strength of the llliAois di vorce proceedings, accepted Dr. Lee, and they were manied. Not long after these things some interested person insituted inquiry in the divorce coart of Illinois ana discovered that Lee had not remain ed in that State long enough to make the divorce legal. Steps were then taken against bee here and he Was prosecuted for bigamy, and bound over to court in tne sum of $500. He fled the Country, leaving bis securities to foot the bill. The case; is how in a lpeculiar shape, ■and to-day the court house presea det a strange scene " when the two young women made their appeal ance and sat down. It might be supposed ; that ,there wouldthave been a degree of rivalry between the two, women, but none ■whatever could be discovered, and ithqy chatted together and exchang >cd smiles in the most pleasant man lier. When the application to an nual the second marriage was read both the beauties were called to the stand, and wife No, 1, whose divorce had been found a nulity, was a Witness in' behalf of wife No. 2, whose petition the court granted. What was calculated to shock the sensibilities qf the better portion of the attendants was the evident lightheartedness of the two young women, who wore , their holiday at tire and were as merry os any two ericketa on the hearth. What effect ■ the appearance of Dr. Lee would have had upon the scene can only be imagined, and it was good for him, no doubt, that he was ont of the way. Possibly—we do not know— ! the prospect which each of the young 1 women had qf marrying to better purpose at some future tame, may have inspired them with hilarious feelings on the occasion. ' !

"Is there any probability of a com, bination among the Southern Con gressmen to control the Speakership contest?” he was asked. .. “No; the Southern Congressman will be found in line in December.” “Will there be an attempt to con trol the Republican majority by North Carolina’s Republican Repre sentatives, and force a repeal of the internal revenue law or any part of it?” “1 think not. The tobaeo tax has ceased? to be_ oppressive, and' the State of Illinois alone pays twenty times as much internal revenue tax as North Carolina. Its. importance as an issue has been exaggerated.” “Will an attempt be made to de featCongressman Brower for a re election by the Republicans of his district?” 1 “Something of the sort seems to havebeen set on foot.
