New York's hopes for the World's Fair in 1892 are now brighter than those of any other place. The trial of Cioss and White vet for the recent term of court at Raleigh has been postponed until November. llev. Sam Jones begins another meeting in Durham on the 5th instant. He is a favorite of Dur ham and Durham is a favorite of his. Kov. It. G. Pearson, the Evan gelist, is conducting a series of meetings at Charlotte. The Chronicle says he is accomplish ing great good. Davidson College opened this year with unusually bright pros pects. A larger percentage of old students returned than usual and the freshman class is the largest In the history of the in stitution. The spirit of partisinsh ip is the greatest obstacle In the way of reform; it blinds its victims to actual conditions and pre vents careful and honest inves tigations of issues and condi tions. It leads men to permit others to think for them, and so leaves the masses ignorant upon questions of tbe most vi tal importance to them an I the Nation. National Economist. One by one the gallant survi vors of the Lost Cause are pass ing away. In the death ot Gon. D. II. Hill, which occurred at Charlotte on the 24th ult , an other of the South's bravest de fenders has entered the haven of rest. His remains now lie in the church yard at Davidson College, along side those of four of his children who went before him. He was a brave and able commander and a brother-in-law of Stonewall Jackson. If there be another grtat European war during the pres ent generation, it will be fought by new men. The commanders in the great Frano-German struggle are nearly all dead or superannuated. General Faid herbe, whose death on last Saturday euded a career made brilliant by his resolute defense of northern France against Man .teuffel, leaves behind him few comrades of his own rank. Of twenty-four noted generals in our own Union war, but six sur vive. "So ruiis the world away." Secretary of War Proctor wish es to locate the blood-thirsty In dian Chief, Geronimo, and his band in Western North Caro lina. Gov. Fowle has written Secretary Proctor a letter plain ly stating that North Carolina does not want a pack of blood thirsty red men turned loose within its borders and suggests that they be pent to the desert ed lauds of Vermont, Proctor's native State. Geronimo, it will bo remembered, is one of the moat cruel and treacherous chiefs in the country and he and his band of Apaches have been for some time, kept closely con fined in Mt. Vernon barracks, Alabama. The annual sum expended by the United States for pensions alone to Union soldiets is $88, 000,000 one-third of the total cost of running this government. If it were all just and deserved it would be well enough, but a mington, going by Elizabe th ereat Tjart of this monev ts town on the west side of the money fraudulently expended and in creasing from y arto year. As many men actually draw pen sions, it is said, as were enlisted during the war, and from this it would seem that the loss of the 2iorth was comparatively mall. All the grand army men are not paupers, and surely the wounded and widows are not so abundant as statistics would have you believe. But this is tho Republican method of re ducing the surplus. CUMBERLAND NEWS. PROGRESSIVE KAYETTE VILLE WA TER WORKS SOON TO IJE BUILT. Dam Breaks in the River Causing Delay on the New Bridge. Keg. Cor. Caucasian. i Faykttevii.lk, N. C, Heit. aoth, Dib'J. J Fayettevilie is havingher share of fires this year. Tuesday morning, about one o'clock, the residence of Capt. R. II. Tomlin son, on Gillespie street, was burned. Capt. Tomlinson aL.d Mr. Elliott, who were sleeping there were awakened by the smoke. Nothing but the piano and a few chairs saved. The building was owned by George Williams, superintendent of the State Colored Normal School and was insured for $1,000. In surance on furniture $750.00. Mr. W. F. Holme?, of Cumber land mill has been elected su perintendent of the Fayettevilie cotton mills, in place of Mr. J. T.Allridg-e. The Farmers' Exchange, the new paper, made its appearance last Wednesday. It is edited by Mrs. J. & O. Evans, and in a neat and spicy paper. Mr. Geo. W. Wightuian,a well known young businessman, left last week fo; Pine Bluff, Ark., to accept a position in a large cotton commission house at a good salary. This city is rapidly undergo ing a change. Old buildings are giving place to new ones, and vacant lots are beinr utilized. Capt. J. B. Brcadfoot is remod elling his residence on Hay mount. Mr. D. II. Ray is build ing a two story dwelling on Hay street. Mr. Geo. P. McNeill has just commenced a $4,000 resi dence on Rowan street and is building another to rent, adjoin ing it. Capt. Muse, of the "Short Cut" railroad has boughf a house on Rowan street and is repairing and improving it. Mr. Frank Thornton is building five new houses on Maiden Lane. Mr. S. 0. Ayer, is building two houses on Person street. The Yadkin Valley railroad is buildiner a new passenger depot at a cost, it is said, of $16,000. Mr. T. S. Lut terloh has about completed his new house on Hay mount. Small tenement houses are bsing built by the dozen, and still the de mand for houses is not satisfied. If this is not a sign or progress, what is ? Mr. T. A. Barker, manager of the Hotel Laayette,will return in a day or two from his sum mer resort on Campbello-Is-land, off Eastport, Maine. He has thoroughly advertised the hotel here as a winter reso.t, and It is probable that it will be fill ed this winter with northern guests. The gas-light and electric light companies vrere purchased last Friday by .the Egypt coal mining company. The uew owners will make extensive im provements and extend the use of both. They will make coal gas, using the coal from th Eypt mines. It is said that this city will have a fine system of water works in another year. The works are to be built by a North ern company. Whilo we have the purest water in the world, it is not Insufficient quantities for fire purposes. . The fire department has had an additional appropriation of $400 from the town lately. The interest in the deiiartment has been on the wane for sometime and a paid department is a ne cessity. Mr. Julian S. Carr, the chief marshall of the Centennial cel ebration is taking a great inter est in it. He has already ap pointed forty assistants among the leading men of the State, whom the Durham GJobe says, would be well worth coining to see, if. there were no other at tractions. The cotton market was lively ou Saturday. The receipts du ring the past week were abou t 350 bales. The prices paid are the same as the Wilmiugton market. The high price is drawing the staple from all di rections. To-morrow the postoffice will be turned over to the new Re publican postmaster, Mr. D. F. Wemyss. The office of the Postal Tele graph and Commerciil Cable Company is the handsomest in the city. There is four batte ries and two operators. The re ceipts have been three times as large as expected at this office. I he company will soon put up a branch line from here to Wil river. The coffer dam in the middle of tbe river broke in last Wed nesday and the excavation soon filled with sand and water. This will delay the work three weeks T A - . or more, n is nam to get a foundation. Rev. Jos. Wheeler, of the Hay street M.- E. Church, has return ed improved in health. . Rev. T. P. Barclay preached at St. Paul's, in Robeson county, yesterday where Fayettevilie Bresbytery is in session. A large crowd went dqwn from here. Rev. W. B. Oliver, the new Baptist minister, In expected to fill his pulpit next Sunday There is money in small in dustries a well a the large ones. That has been demonstra ted i ight in this city. The cot ton factors, despite the heavy lo. ti occasioned by th 3 blood, has made Home money; the bucket factory is making money; the canning factory made money; the clothing factory has six men on the road, works 8 " hands and wants 150; the edge tool factory is making mouey and nearly every thing of the kind ia doing well. ThesH things are men tioned with a 1 ope that it will craf an interest In such things, as The Caucasian is constant ly urging the establishment of femall industries, this is thrown by way of encouragement . DUPLIN NEWS. MEETING OF THE COUNTY ALLIANCE MORE STOCK AND FRUIT SHOULD BE RAISED. Sad Affliction of a Kenansville Family. SM'C. Cor. to The Caucasian. KKX AXHVILI.E, N. I-., Sept. 30th, 1889.

Our friends of the Alli ance show by their efforts that they are determined to bring about an improvement in our condition, it is apparent even to the casual observer that there is a need of a remedy for our poverty. The organization that can put into effect counteracting influences will prove a benefac tor indeed. Mr. Jas. W. Cox, his sons D. S. and J. C. Cox and daughter, Miss Ella, have typhoid fever, the first two being at their home in Kenansville and the last two in Wilmington. The condition of Mr. J. C. Cox is quite critical.

Sup pose there be a committee ap pointed in every sub-Alliance to see that their section is properly represented by a creditable ex hibit. The effect would be to make the fair a big success. 'Let it be doue, for Sampson must not do anything by halves. What a good example the Al liance can set to-morow by tak ing hold of and successfully in augurating an enterprise which would put thousands of dollars into the pockets of our farmers, and also be the meaus of stimu lating others to start or invest in smaller enterprises which would do so much toward build ing up our county. Let us start the canning factory and if it is a success other enterprises will surely follow. The Presidents or represen tatives of nearly every sub-Alliance of the county met her on last Saturday and, in secret meeting, received, from the County President the special and secret instructions from the National Cotton Committee.! This information wa? commu nicated lo the various sub- Alli ances in their called meetings yesterday. The matter will be further discussed and explained in the county meetings to-mor row. Farmers' and Laborers' I'nion of America. The above is the new name for the consolidited wheels and Alliancca. Messrs. C. W. Macune, president of the National Farmers' Alliance; Isaac McCracken, president of the National Agricultural wheel; and Evan Jone, tie new presi dent cf the consolidated organi zation are out in a proclamation stating that whereas the new constitution formed at Meridian last December has been adopt ed by three-fourths of the State wheels and Alliances that the two organizations ar9 there fore merged and consolidated into one body to be known as the "Farmers' and Laborers' Union of America." The new constitute n went into effect on last Tuesday, the first of Octo ber. Beulah. Our people are seeing more of the evils of using commercial fertilizer each year, and less of it will be used next season than for many years. One of our members who made the experi ment of using no guano on . cot ton along side ol some on which xuano was used, made the state ment that if any man could tell any difference between the cot- lon he would give him the fitst bale he picked. The sooner our farmers abandon guano and use home-made fertilizers, the bet ter for them and for the coun try. As an example of wht can be done without commercial fertilizers, we would say that one of the best farmers in this community bought a piece of land, worked out the money to pay foi it, and that without the use of commercial fertilizer. It is discussion of principles, and not of mere undertakings, that bring jjreat results. Prin ciples once thoroughly under stood, the means of establishing them are readily arrived at.
