THE ST&HD&RD: Friday, - June 28, 1889. Jas. P. Cook, Editors and B. E. Harris, Proprietors. PROHIBITION. From the signs of the times, it would seem that the great prohibi tion movement has been given late ly a back-set that it will require a long time to recover from. In the election in Pennsylvania a few days ago, when it was a prohibition issue, pure and simple, the antis carried it by the tremendous majority of over 180,000. Quite recently also a prohibitory clause in the State constitution of Rhode Island was repealed by the required two-thirds majority. When our own State voted on that question several years ago the majority was 120,000 against it. In the elections for local option the first of this month, only one town out of a half dozen went "dry." Now what is the meaning of all this? Does it mean that all the efforts of the adherents of this great cause have availed, nothing, and that the consensus of the Amer ican people is against this great moral reform? Or perhaps it is with this issue as it has been in the past with all great questions involv ing customs and rights established by long usage, a reaction has come, and it is now under a shadow. If this be the case, there is no reason for those who are in favor of this cause to despair, for it is only fol lowing the natural course of all great issues. It is an admitted fact that the agitation of this question, while it may not result as the prohibitionists desire, does have a reflex influence upon the people that is for the bet ter. People become educated as to the evils of whiskey drinking, and see more clearly the moral side of the question. They are conscious of (he fact that the whiskey habit with its attendant evils is deprecated not only by women and preachers, but more or less by every one. That a great evil is to be coped with, is apparent to every one. The best method of coping with this evil, is by no means apparent to every one. It is a question which forces itself upon each one of us, and the best people of our land are divided as to the best solution of the problem of the whiskey traffic It is a question which admits of a fair and intelligent discussion, and about the most damaging thing that can be done for it, is to lay down dogmatic principles that of themselves preclude discussion, and show that those holding them are ' not open to conviction. Local option seems to be the most popular with the people of our sec tion of the country, and has been very satisfactory in its workings in our own vicinity. Those who saw the operation of both " wet " and " dry " with us, say there is a great contrast between the two and that the contrast is vastly in favor of the latter. Let us hope that the outcome and final result of the agi taiion of this question, whatever it be, will be for the good of our peo ple and for the advancement of our great country. STABAftV;jlOTESr It is said to ;be the intention of our naval authorities to make all our war ships white. They have already whitewashed a good many other things. The whole adminis tration ought to be whitewashed. Tom Woolfolk, of Geogia, who killed nine members of his family in order to inherit the property, has recently been convicted of mur der. This is his fifth trial. Is this an evidence of the exceeding justice of our country, or is rather an evi dence that those who have money can get more of the justice (?) than any one else. The counsel for Dr. T. B. Mc Dow, whose trial for the murder of Mr. Dawson began Monday last, seed to have gotten the advantage in selecting the jury. There are five white men and seven negroes. In some way Dawson incurred the enmity of the negroes generally, and this is to be worked for all it is worth in the trial. , It seems that the color line is be ing drawn in the Republican party. In Virginia recently was formed a purely negro party, no white man being allowed in it In Alabama and other places in the South is be ing formed a white Republican par ty, the understanding being that the "coons" are to be tabooed. The Dem ocrats are enjoying the" fun hugely. What is the matter with journal ism in the Old North State? The editor of the Bock Mount Plain dealer has laid downMhe quill and Stne to farming. .

SUNDAY TRIPS RANDALL AGAIN NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR POST MASTERS BRICE WANTS TO BE SENATOR COX TO THE WEST ARIZONA WANTS IN CANADY DUBIOUS-PENSION FUND EXHAUSTED. From Our Regular Correspondent. Harrison varied his regular Sun day amusement yesterday by going to Cape May to see the old lady and the babies instead of going yatching down the Potomac with a stag party as he haa done for several Sundays past He returned to Washington today but will go away again soon. In fact the time between trips Beems to be principally occupied in decid-; ing where he shall go next, lie will go most anywhere provided he is al lowed to deadhead. He went to Cape May and returned as a guest of the Pennsylvania railroad. His conduct in this respect is in marked contrast with that of Mr. Cleveland, who accepted no favors from rail roads, but always paid his fare like other passengers, but that isn't the only contrast to be observed between the two men by a long shot Hon. Samuel J. Randall, with his family, has gone to Pennsylvania for the summer. It will be good news to Democrats everywhere to learn that Mr. Randall has entirely re covered his health. The day of his departure he expressed himself as feeling better than for several years. The only Virginia appointment of any consequence made last week was a Mahone man to be U. S. Attorney for the western district of the State. Still Mahone. has no "pull" on the administration. Oh, no. Harrison is evidently afraid of some of the post-masters that As. sistant Post-master General Clark son is appointing. He took occasion to tell a delegation that he was not responsible for the fourth class post masters appointed. Calvin S. Brice, chairman of the National Democratic Committee, it is said will be a canidate for the United States Senate from Ohio, to succeed Mr. Payne, who, declines again being a canidate. Ohio will do herself honor if she sends Mr. Brice to the Senate. About 1,000 ex-Union soldiers except to get back to tbe public trough through Harrison's changing of the civil service rule limiting the time in which discharged employes from the classified service may be reinstated. Blaine is the " funny man " of the cabinet He tells Harrison funny stories and the other boys laugh. He'll make them do something else before this administration comes to and end. Hon. S. S. ("Sunset") Cox has gone on an extended Western trip He will deliver a Fourth of July oration at Huron, Dakota. From there he goes to the Pacific coast An act passed by the Arizona leg islature and approved by the gover nor providing for the holding of i convention for the purpose of fx am ing a State constitution, has been decided by the Attorney Geueral to be valid. "America for Americans" is the motto of the Patriotic Sons of America, an organization that held its thirteenth annual convention here last week. They left disgusted with Harrison because he refused to allow one of their badges to be pin ned on his coat when they called at the White House. Washington contributed $55,000 to the Pennsylvania flood sufferers. Gen. A. C. Myers, late quarter master general of the Confederate army, died at his residence in this city last week. He was a son-in-law of Gen. David E. Twiggs. So great is the pressure of office on Superintendent Porter of the Census Bureau that he haa announc ed his purpose of seeing applicants only on Mondays from nine to twelve o'clock. There are very few Democratic Congressmen around Washington just now. They got enough last summer and the most of them are probably glad not to repeat the dose this year. Sergeant Arms Canady of the Senate is feeliug yery dubious of his re-election when the Senate meets. He is, however, improving each shin ing hour by button holing the Re publican Senators that are still in the city. This is certainly a G. A. R. ad ministration whatever else it may be. This organization has received everything it asked for and it has not been at all backward in asking. In no administration since Washing ton has it wielded the power it does now. This seems a little queer when it is remembered that the war ended more than twenty-five years ago. No money to pay pensions until after July 1st' la the cry from all the pension agencies. Only two or three weeks ago Corporal Tanner was assuring the pensioners that the appropriation was not exhausted and that there would be no delay in the payment of pensions. He knew Letter then. Public Printer Benedict discharg ed a number of employes last week all Democrats. HO P M YET, Evening Visitor. How long shall life's hopes be de ferred How long the sick heart mourns for one familiar word, Alas; each day but ends in vain regret, And disappointedly, I say, No P M Yet. The sun rises elear aud bright, the flowers bloom, Ahl surely it will como to-day, and chase my gloom, But ere my castle wall has formed and sun has set, I hear those awful bitter words, No P M Yet I count the days, the very hours, aud hope grows strong And wonder why, you wait so long!

Wilson White of Hawk ingsville Ga., is spending a few months with friends and relatives, he is the same old Wilson and every body is glad to see him ; he came in last week. We hope to have some news next week. M. A Chanee for a Cabarrna M. D. The Vermont Microscopical As sociation has just announced that a prize of $250, given by the Wells & Richardson Co.. the well-known chemists, will be paid to the first discoverer of a new disease germ, The wonderful discovery by Prof. Koch of the cholera germ, as the cause of cholera, stimulated great re search throughout the world and it is believed this liberal prize, offered by house of such standing, will greatly assist in the detection of micro-organisms that are the direct causes of disease and death. All who are interested in the subject and the conditions of this prize, should write to C. Smith Boynton, M. D., Seo'y of the association, Burlington, Vt. A Carton Halt. Durham Sun. A very curious lawsuit for heavy damages will be instituted tomorrow by Kirby R. Smith, a young man of Goldsboro. It will be brought against kKemp P. Battle, President of the University of North Carolina, as agent of the trustees of that Uni versity. Week before last the Uni versity commemorated the centen nial of its foundation and one night, as reported, some persons painted red the monument in the campus, which was erected many years ago by President James E. Polk; to the memory of Dr. Joseph Caldwell, the first President of the college. The act aroused great indignation on the part of the students, and also of the alumni who had gathered there from all parts of the country. The trus tees upon suspicion had a warrant issued for young Smith. The latter was taken before a Magistrate, and after a brief examination was dis charged tfer lack of evidence. He has employed very able lawyers and will bring suit for $20,000 damages for false arrest. Suit will also prob ably be instituted against several newspapers which published attacks upon Smith. The matter is attraot iag a great deal of attention, DROPS OF Tr, Pitch and Turpentine from me Old Nrtn State. A negro died of sun stroke in Durham last week.

Gladson, of Guilford countyjrealyed $10 from the sale of cherries off of one tree. Many magistrates appointed by the Legislatre have failed to qualify aud Gov. Fowle will have a large number of appointments. It is estimated that at least thirty thousand packages of truck have gone and will go from New Berne and vicinity the present week. Gov. Fowle has appointed Mr. R. Pearcy Gray, of Greensboro, as a representative of North Carolina at the French Exposition at Paris. A proposition for Richmond coun to vote $100,000 for the railroad to be built from Rockingham to Salis bury is being vigorously pushed. Dr. R. H.

The new wing of the institution for the colored insane asylum at Goldsboro has been completed and has been accepted by the directors. There are now over 160 inmates in this asylum. The colored Building and Loan Association of Wilmington seems to be progressing rapidly. We believe this is the first undertaking of this kind among the colored people of the State. The Pi ttsboro, Record says a three year-old child of Haywood Lassiter, of Chatham county, was choked to death Sunday of last week while eating cherries and trying to swal low the stones. In Ashboro, last week while some hands were working on the railroad, a mass of dirt and Btone fell on colored man, and completely buried him. He was unearthed, and lived about an hour. Winston can lay claim to the youngest married couple in the State, The bride is just 15, while the groom ,s out one year older, 16. The weight of the former is 84 pounds and it is doubtful whether the latter can pull the beam any stronger. The endownment fund of Wake Forest is now $173,122,44.

The Raleigh News-Observer, of yesterday morning, contained an ac count of an electric rock, found near Morehead, which stretches the blank et about as far as it will go over the imaginative genius of a modern ' Munchausen. j TT 1 0 i .1 lie says tney lounu a rock, m an j old neglected vineyard, that when I you touch it you experience a shock and feel a tremble.
