THE ASHEVILLE DAILY CITIZEN. MONDAY. MARCH 12, 1900.

When we speak of prophets and sometimes think of their his tory in the Old Testament. it's my object to state here that there were In Asheville two years agcr these two kinds of prophets. When the Reliable Rumford Baking- Powder came on the market some of the up to date grocers said that powder will sell for it only codt consumer 30c. pound, while they have been pay ing 50c. The false prophets said "they cannot furnish a pure pow der for 30c." but time has shown that the Rumford Chemical Worjcs have turned out a perfect baking powder for 30c. lb., called Rumford and the false prophet has gathered up his tent and de parted for parts unknown.

The Wil mington people are watching the prog ress of this year's campaign more closely and eagerly than other people in the stabe. They are determined not to have any more negro in their poli tics, whatever may befall other com munities. The Democrats there have found a traitor. He is an Irishman, locally known as "Mickey Darling," who in the post-election clearing out of obnoxious whites and blacks in 1898, made himself very prominent as a 'fire eater," expressing a raging desire to slay everybody. But "Mickey Dar ling" no longer wears a red shirt, for now he is a Dockery man. His last ap pearance in Wilmington was in search of evidence against Bellamy in order to aid Dockery and the Republicans in ousting him from his seat in congress. Just after the "uprising" of the white people of Wilmington in 1S98 "Mickey Darling" went to Norfolk and there wanted to kill some of the Wilmington negro refugees. Senator "Mike" Justice of Ruther ford withdraws his name as a candi date for the Democratic nomination for governor. He writes a letter worthy of so admirable a man and zealous a pa triot," saying there are too many can didates for office and especially for governor. Senator Justice was one of the leaders in the legislature and his sound judgment and his earnest work are fully appreciated by North Caro lina Democrats. Senator Butler has been having searches made here for documents which he doubtless proposes to use in his efforts to defeat Ewart for judge. In a bankruptcy case Judge Purnell takes occasion to rap people who try to all get in one bankruptcy case. In this c'as four were trying to get in on one set of fees. The Confederate veterans have been informed that in the annex to the state museum, now nearly completed, there will be room for relics bearing on the history ot North Carolina. There are thousands of such things in the state. Earnest efforts will be made by the veterans to secure those of the civil u ar period. The adjutant-general says he intends to uniform the First regiment of the state guard early in June when thf-ni-xt quota becomes available. The Republicans have for quite a while tried to force Attorney-General Walser to ariay himself against the franchise amendment. He has been quoted as saying he would support it. What he did say was that he would not put himself on record against it. The committee on the Vance statue l"ave here for Washington next Friday to inspect Mr. Ellicott's model. There appears to be no doubt now, the com mitteemen say. that the statue will be unveiled May 20. The Supreme court will devote this w'(-k to sixth district appeals. Dr. Atty. formerly of Minneapolis, now of Raleigh, one of the two osteo pathic physicians in this state, is dan gerously ill at the Rex hospital here. A plate glass window worth $350 was put in the Raney Library here. The wind made it vibrate somewhat and a painter called to a carpenter to drive a nail to steady it. The contractor had ordered that no one touch the window. The nail was driven, it touched the im mense glass and like lightning the lat ler cracked from top tostttom. It is yet in place and a transvTTse crack has started. The contractor is out $350, all on account of one little nail and diso bedience of orders. Editor H. B. Varner of Lexington is an aspiran. and a strong and worthy one. for the Democratic nomination for commissioner of labor and printing. It is asserted that not only will there he an increase in cotton acreage this year, but also an increase in tobacco. The claim is made that a considerable part of the large fertilizer sales in crease so far this season is for tobacco. A cotton grower, when asked whether the farmers would put in more cotton than usual, remarked that he did not see how, as they always put in all they could gather; in fact. more. As one man and one horse can put in as much as three persons can gather it looks rather like an easy task to raise more cotton than can be picked. SPECIAL RATES.

It is recogniz ed that with the war still rampant In the Philippines Mr. McKinley's chances for re-election would be im paired. So the war will stop by offi cial dictum.

BATTLE S ADDRESS ON -THE LIFE OF VANCE DELIVERED BEFORE THE STU DENT BODY AT WAKE FOREST COLLEGE. Wake Forest, N. C, March 9. Hon. Richard W. Battle of Raleigh delivered an address on the life of Governor Vance at Wake Forest. Mr. Battle commenced by felling the audience of his intimate acquaintance with Gover nor Vance. He said: "One of my first recollections of Gov ernor Vance was when he was a sopho more at Chapel Hill, and my father was one of the faculty at the time. It was at the beginning of the session and all of the boys were walking around shaking hands with each other. It was Vanee-'s first year and he did not know anyone, so he walked up to an old negro, and grasp ed him by the hand and said, 'Why, how are you old man? I am so glad to see you.' All of the boys at once saw into the matter, and they at once in troduced themselves to him. "A few nights after some of the boys went round to give Vance the welcome which all new men are privileged to re ceive. They raised the cover and caught him by one of his feet, and he said, 'Wait a minute, boys, and let me tell you a mountain story. In telling them stories he kept them there until daybreak and they never accorded him the welcome as intended." Mr. Battle then told of his first cam paign, when he was elected to the house in Raleigh, and followed with his other campaigns till his election. "Vance," said he, "used a fiddle (I be lieve you call them 'violins' now) in his campaigns, and was quite a good performer on it. Once his uncle came to see his mother, and Vance asked him if he would not like to hear him play his fiddle. He told him he would, whereupon Vance got out his instru ment and after tuning it for some time, played a tune. 'Well, uncle,' he said, how do you like that?' 'Very well,' re plied his uncle; "but, Zeb, I never knew a man in my life that could play a fid dle and was good for anything else!" " Mr. Battle was the private secretary of Governor Vance, and he told many incidents connected with Vance while governor. The following is one: "While Sherman's army was marching south, information was received that Vance was going to surrender. Governor Holt went to Vance the 13th of June, 1865, and asked him if it was true. Governor Van-?e was in his office at work when Holt came in and Sherman was expect ed to arrive next day. 'No,' replied Vance. 'I am going out and sleep with the boys tonight.' " He then told of Governor Vance's ar rest and imprisonment in Washington, following with his release and then to his election to congress. He said: "Da vid Wells in his work on Political Economy said, 'The finest speech on the tariff I ever heard was delivered by. Governor Vance in the senate. " In reference to his character he said: "Why is it there is a monument to the memory of Vance in Asheville? Why is it his picture faces that of the father of his country in the capitol in Ral eigh? Why is it that we will unveil a monument of him in Raleigh in April? Because of his many virtues, his truth fulness, his honesty and his patriot ism." Mr. Battle referred to his poetical turn of mind and read that parody on "The Old Oaken Bucket," called "A Pair ;.f Pantaloons": How dear to my heart are the pants of my childhood When fond recollection presents them to view The pants that I wore in the deep tan gled wildwood And likewise the groves where the crabapple blooms; The wide-spreading seat, with its little square patches, The pockets that bulged with my luncheon for noon, And also the marblos and fishworms and matches. And gumdrops and kite strings from March until June. The little patched trousers, the made over trousers. The high-water trousers that fit me too soon. He concluded with the scenes which occurred at and after his death. He said: "His son Charles was the secre tary of the committee on finance in the senate when he died. A barber had been up to shave him and he told the barber to send Charles up to see him. Charles went up, accompanied by an old negro. Governor Vance, shook hands with both, telling them goodbye, and the last words he spoke were: 'Son, sit there, stay.1 After his death he was carried to Raleigh, where he laid in state from 9 a. m. till 4 p. m., while the people crowded in to pay the last tribute to the dead. I was one of the pallbearers, and when we carried him tn the train, the crowd was so dense it seemed that the whole state was there. "We stopped at Durham about half an hour. While there, the hands that worked in Mr. Carr's tobacco factory came out and sang a song. This was the first line. 'My Father, let us rest in Thee." It was the most touching scene I ever witnessed. Men and women wept like children. There was a poor old crippled woman there, and the crowd was so dense she could not get in the car to see his remains, so she took all the money she had, a quarter and a dime, and laid it on the track, so the train could pass over it. It was all she had to remember him by. and nothing could tempt her to part w ith those two flat pieces of silver. "We stopped at Greensboro a while and the band was out and played some sweet music. It was dark when we left there and we saw bonfires at every station between there and Asheville. After struggling through the immense crowd at Asheville, we buried him at Riverside. An old veteran from a school house tolled the bell as the ser vices were being held at the grave. thus paying a last tribute to his mem ory. ' DABN fc. Y K. iAKBKU UGn, Law Department.
