We have to thank our old war comrade, John A. Smith, for some great big red apples. They were not only pretty, but splendid to the taste. A case of scarlet fever was re ported this week at Forest Hill. We were loth to say anything about it until we consulted the physician. We find it true. Everything will be done to prevent its spread.

Don't forget that Cabarrus county farmers are getting up the biggest fair we have ever had. It is purely an agricultural fair, and we want every farmer to take an inter est in it. W C JCaton is putting up in his Racket Store a line of Lamsdeu's Service company's wires. It is quite a curiosity to see the little cash cups run from the salesman to the cashier. This is a new feature in Concord stores. ' One of our county men was up before Esq. Willefcrd Tuesday on the charge of disturbing public worship. The "squire" adjudged him "not guilty" and the originator of the "frivolous prosecution" was made to pay the cost Stanly county surely must be a regular poultry yard. There is cot a day passes but Concord gets a wagon load of chickens from that county. The truth of the matter is Concord is indebted to Stanly for lots of good grub.

Everybody stayed'iudoftrs ; the streets were deserted ; business was at a stand still, and our mer- chants were "down in the mouth." The Charlotte signal mau's predict ed storm was a day late, but it came "all the same." --Whenever an old building is toru down in Concord, the relic finder, Ed Hall, gave that to The Standard local. Have you ever noticed that since we have had the "no fence law" the butter yield has doubled ; the cows are finer, falter and more valuable; and, although butter has dropped from 30 to 20 cents per pound, the farmer's income from one cow is greater than formerly. W. T. Walker, the poor lost "critter" of the third party,probably forgot to take his medicine with him to Albemarle. No doubt the $1,000 candidate got wet and cold aud longed for a dose, that he no doubt takes, his Issue to the contrary not withstanding. - A trip to the extreme eastern portion of Cabarrus, by a Staxd- akd reporter, satisfies him that the crops are fiue.

" ednesday evening the engine of the North bound passenger train broke down at the depot. Luck would have it,no delay was made. An engine was detatched from a freight train and the passengers were happy. An extra engine was sent down from Salisbury to take the freight to Charlotte. Well, we got that ugly limb down from the front of the post of fice. Our mayor is all right; but we want to say that a feller got his foot fast in that ugly worn out bridge in front of G. W. Patterson's the other day. He was a good far mer, and lets give "all sich" a good foot hold in Concord. Ed Partee, colored, was arrest- 111 T . i C'l.-.'i-C T..1- 1 i. deputy oiierm jouii iropt, " Wednesday last; and Thursday evening the same officer brought in Esau Bradshaw, colored. Both are charged with placing obstructions on the railroad track, near the 2G4 mile post, on the Key Morrison land, on the 20th of August, with intent to wreck the train. Rev. Mr. Walker, gubernatorial candidate, arrived here Wednesday. Thursday morning, early, he left for Albemarle, accompanied by seveial of our Prohibition friends. Well, it was the wettest day to organize a State "dry" ticket in Stanly we have e' er seen. If our elector, Hon. S. J. Fembcrton is at home, some body about the size of Parson Walk er will think his own whistle dry, when he gets through. Stanly don't believe in any third party inhibition, and won't have it We are in receipt of a letter from Mr. Samuel N. Lee, of Kittan r.ing,' Pa., asking for copies of the Standard. The writer is looking for a location in our State. To him we would say that in this Piedmont section, he will find good land, an industrious people, and a glorious climate. In our plain way we are ever ready to welcome those who come among ns, aud we would like to see this Pennsylvanian come down. The old nick-name of Rip Van Winkle does not now belong to thc old North State. She is pushing and progressive. "We have failed to get 9, full re turn of the Primary Democratic Conventions of each township. Next week we will be able to publish the full list of township executive com mittees, for the next two years. The result of these primary conventions, (the best attended since 1876), gives a majority of votes for Senator to Col. P. B. Means; for Legislator, C. McDonald ; for Sheriff, Wm. Props t; for Register of Deeds, J no. K. Pat terson ; for Treasurer, J no. A. Cline; for Coroner, Jas. N. Brown; for Surveyor, Jno. II. Long. At the hour of soing to press we have examined the township re turns of last Saturday's conventions and find that for Senator, Col Means has a majority, by the percentage vote or by a full unit vote as in some townships it was instructed. Tomorrow this popular vote will be endorsed and Col Means will be the Senatorial candidate. His competi tor whs one of Cabarrus county's very best democratic citizens and abides gracefully by the decision of the majority. i'EKSOSAl.. Mr. L. C. Caldwll spent Monday ! in Concord. Mr. P. B.

This school now has 42 pupils en rolled. The prospects for quite a number of new pupils from the town and country are encouraging." That the principals are in earnest is seen by the fact that they have secured board, including room, lights, &c, for young men at the low price of $8 per mouth. Arrangements hae been made by which boys can board themselves at cost of provisions and preparation. Concord never does anything by halves, and our teachers have so arranged that Concord's High School will be a success. ! m leftJ3i of Mm. Tipton. We learn with sincere regret of the death at Salisbury on the after noon of the 4th, of Mrs. Sarah F. Tipton, wife of Col. John C. Tipton. She had been sick for a long time and her death was not unexpected. Mrs. Tipton was a native of York ville, S. C, and was a most estima ble lady. She had a number of rel atives and a large circle of friends iu Charlotte. Our sincere sympa thies are extended to our brother in his bereavement. Charlotte Chron icle. The Standard tenders to the bereaved a heartfelt sympathy. S lotkhcltlrrs Meeting. The Stockholders of the Con cord Female Academy will meet Friday, eptember 7th, at 8:30 p. m., in W.

The Democrats visited him at his rooms and gave him a cordial welcome. At 9 p.- m. the ba'ud sere naded him, and the citizens "en masse" crowded in and around the hotel porch to hear an impromptu speech. Notwithstanding the rain the audience was an ever increasing one. The speaker in his attractive manner made a tip top speech advo cating democracy ; and although he started out by saying "the think won't come," it came thick and fast, convincing the weak kneed that de mocracy alone had given the old North State good, honest and eco nomical rule. Mr. Sanderlin great ly endeaied himself to many of our citizens by again goin?j over with them the scenes of war,--hen he wa3 their coinrn.de in arms.

Notwith standing the extreme inclemency of the weather, a large crowd was present, especially of the members of Raleigh Typographical Union, No. 5-i, of which the deceased was an honored member. After the exer cises at the house, the remains were conveyed to the Confederate cemete ry, and there consigned to their last resting place, the followiug named gentlemen acting as pall bearers: Messrs N. B. Broughton, E. M. Uz zell, C. D. Christophers, Chas. F. Cook, L. 0. Lougee and T. O. Fau cet t. Mr. L. W. Smith was the Marshal. Thus has passed away one among the best posted men in the State. We clip the above from the lial eigh Evening Visitor of Tuesday. The junior editor of The Stan da kd for manv years was associated with the deceased. The typographical profession to him was not a mere routine of daily duty for pecuniary profit, but a pleasure. As a man he was genial, whole-ouled, and loved by all. Dockcry and His Home Market. The progress of the campaign de- velops ti e fact that Colonel Do. tery relies entirely upon the great name of Henry Clay for argument and au thority on the tariff question, and naturally enough, perhaps, for he "was reared a Henry Clay Whig" as he tells us in his letter of accept- ance "aud drank in Clay doctrines with his mother's milk" as he tells the people in his speeches wherever heroes. Generally this was perhaps good enough raising and good enough diet, that is for most folks about that time, but somehow it don't seem to have agreed with "our Col onel Dockery,'' as his friends of the" mercantile profession would say. I Possibly he was overfed, for he has been a greedy body from his youth up. But whether the trouble comes from his liver or his brain it has "sot him back" so much that he is now just about where he was when he started at least on the tariff :. 1 1 ...l but he has not changed with them. The world has moved, but Dockery is just where he was forty years ago. Eyes he hath but they see not ; a mouth too and a tongue, but all he can say on the tariff question is "I'm a Henry Clay Whig." Now, it has been nearly forty years since Henry Clay died; it has been forty-four years since he ran for President and some sixty years since he made his great fight for protec tion to the infant industries of the country, urging that if that policy were adopted it would make home markets foi all the produce of every kind in all the laud. American industries were indeed "infant,' industries at that time. In truth the United States themselves were in their infancy ; the Federal Constitution had been in existence some thirty years only and the en tire population did not exceed 10, 000,000, while west of the Appa lachian range it was but little over 2,000,000. The great States of the Northwest of to-day, of the trans- Mississ.ppi and of the Pacific had no existence. The country, such as it was, was a country without railroads, without telegraphs or steamships. It was a day when Mr. Webster de scribed American manufacturers as "a little capital mixed with manual labor," and when the neighboring village or town consumed the neigh boring farmer's products and wore the clothing made from their wool and cotton. It was well enough then to talk to the farmers about making home markets by establishing factories whose operatives would add to the number of non-producing consum ers, because each community de pended in very great measure, en tirely practically, on home resources, so to speak, for its bread and meat. Chicago, with its limitless supply of corn and meat and its equally limit less railroad facilities, was then not invented. Factories then helped not merely to provide labor for oper atives, and profits for bosses, but they made a bigger and better mar ket for farmers by increasing the number of people in the community who ate without producing farm produce, But all this has been The very word itself, as ' C'liail ed it were, has changed and with that change an end has been put to home markets and steam and electricity have done the work.

The furniture iu the nev office of Secretary bf War, Endicott, is after designs selected by Mrs. Endicott.' Busy Chicago. Ons striking" thing about Chicago is the number of idlers. They are inconceivably dirty ill-smelling and repulsive. In every direction are the typical men of the city pushing, surging, rushing and working. They rush like mad after a street car a block ahead, though thoi e is one at their hand; they bound violently up to the third or fourth story of an office building, though, if they waited a minute, the elevator would et them there sooner; they talk aud gesticulate with mad eagerness, and work like beavers from "morning till night; yet, wherever there is this rushing and dashing stream of hu inanity, there aie to bo found the eddies of stagnation and decay. A thousand men tight for money like cits in a scrimmage iu the board of trade, while in the four corners sur rounding it arc a hundred or two of the most degraded specimens of the genua loafer. Ail along the streets and shady spots are dirty, frowsy and l epellant Bohemians, Germans, Seandanavians, Italians, and thtr riff-raff of all the Soutu American countries stretched in the mud and dirt, unwashed, unf-d and horrible to look upon. They are suily, ill natured and revengeful. The police watch them as iuuch for the protec tion of the fovea as for the city. When one goes into the q.vi iters where the pgitators aud AnarcLists live, the impression of filth and Has tiness is increased a thousand fold. It will take an enormous amount of fresh water and soap to ever reduce the poorer quarters of Chicago to a condition of half-way decency. The slums of New York and London are paradise in some respects compared to the filthy quarters occupied by the ontcast scum of the world which has drifted io Chicago.
