'This service has fallen to me to per form by reason of the sorrowful dispen Sbtion of Providence whereby the lute distinguished and patriotic Governor oi the State, Daniel G. Fowle. was sud denlv called from bis arduous service in public duty on the 7th day ol April, 1891. On the succeeding day, April the 8th, I took the oath of office nt the hands of the Chief Justice, in obedience to t be law. and oarticiuaterl in tne solemn cere monies with which- nfe people laid to rest the eminent statesman so lone and honorably inentified with the history of the State. Rarely, if ever, within the period cf a gubernatorial termf four years, have I . . , . i 1 - . 1 K i tne cniei cxccuutc ana juuicai ouiccrs ui North Carolina been so thinned by the hand of death. The Governor, in the midst of the honored career that ha been referred to, the able and devoted Secretary of Sate. who has left an lm oerishable monument in the collected Colonial Records of Carolina, the indus trious and experienced Treasurer, who had civen a life time to his complicated labors, two Chief ustices ol the Supreme court, renowned in the torum and upon the bench, associated no less with national legislation than with their responsible judicial duties at home, and another j us tice of that exalted tribunal, peculiarly dear to the whole people, ns an examplar of private virtue and official probity. Nor can 1 omit to add to this shiniusr roll of the departed ereat the name of the soldier and stotetnuin who left the executive office nt the beginning of the present term to enjoy the sweets of Drivate life but a brief petiod before his summons from earth. "Recalline with nain these sore bereave ments, and bereft of the wisccounsel and patriotic efforts of the departed, let us yet rejoice that such names are enrolled in the history of the State for the en couragement of her children, and to stir a generous emulation to repeat such ex amples ot purity and patriotism. Finance. Under the financial head Gov. Holt says: There have been issued in exchange for old bonds of 4 per cent, bonds, $3,298,- 950, and for old bonds of 6 per cent, bonds. 362. 720.000. There are still out standing of bonds which should have been exchanged : Of 40 per cent, class $ 318,500 25 ' " 539,700 " 15 " " 363,300 Railroad, CommlMlou. The creation of railroad commission by the general assembly of 1891, is com mended. Railroad corporations at the time of the creation of the commission were valued for taxation at $12,321,704 in the State. The commission valued them at $20,141, 760, showing an m crease of S7.820.056. making an in creased revenue to the State of $75,000. The World's Fair. Gov. Holt thinks the failure of North Caroliua to be adequately represented at the World's Pair at Chicago would be a "erievous mistake," and recom mends the passage by the Legislature pf a bill appropriating swtM'uu tor tnat purpose. Nicaragua Canal. The Governor favors government aid to the Nicaragua canal scheme, and asks the Legislature to request North Caro Una's representatives in Congress to vote for the bill. In conclusion Gov. Holt congratulates the State upon the election of such an able bodv of representatives as those comoosine the present Legislature 1 he missaee was well received Dy ail. Bills were offered authorizing Congress to take off the tax on State banks; also providing for the issue of circulating notes throueh Mate banks. The Ooy ernor's reception for the Assembly occurs tonight All tbe Stories Originated Willi a C: or respondent Who Was Hard Vp For Money. There Was Po Datlle and No Lvncblux The Citizen has, all along, had its doubts of the accuracy of tbe reported riot in Bakersville, and was the first and. till today, the only paper to send out dispatches to the Southern Associated Press questioning the probability of any such affair taking place. Yesterday, however, the news was so circumstan tial that there seemed to be no doubt of the accuracy of the account, and The Citizen so stated in its headlines. At the last moment before going to press, however, and too late to readily make a change in the headings, it was learned that at least the Hat of killed was, in all probability, bogus; and this again threw doubt over the whole. Today the fol lowing telegrams were received. They seem to make it tolerably certain that the only excuse for a riot and lynching at Bakersville lies in the appropriateness of punishing the wretched fakir at John ston City, who appears to have no other uthority for the stories he sent out WILD GHERRY WAS HK Gl'II.TV?

An ex perienced reporter sent to investigate the reported horrible affair at Bakersville, N. C has not been able to reach that olace yet. He wires, however, that the battle story is probably absolutely false Washington, lan.tj. Liespatcnes irom responsible people at Johnson City de clare that nobody besides the corres- nondent who wrote the items tele graphed Wednesday has any knowledge of the alleged lynching tragedy at Ba kersville, N. C. and they express the belief that the stories ar: wholly false. The story dated Marion, N. C, is in precisely similar terms to that from Johnson City and was telegraphed Wed nesday to western newspaper". The Johnson City man claimed to be acting under the authority ol one ot tne execu ttve officers of the Southern Associated Press, but when that gentleman's at tention was culled to the fact he denied all knowledge of the correspondent and denounced nim as an imposter. i-or Is a safe and reliable cure for coughs, colds, croup, hoarseness and all affec tions arising from an inflamed condition of the throat and lungs.
