THE S T A II D & R D . Friday, August 23, 1889 Jxs. P. Cook, 1 Editors and B. . Harris, Proprietors. TAKB1ID STOTES. It hai been stated that the United SUtei government haa determined to locate Geronimo and hia band upon the Cherokee reservation in the western part of this State,whereupon the neighboring counties are raising objections at a lively rate, They have too high a regard for their scalps to allow the royal prisoner the freedom of their forests. We don't blame them. Mr. Eugene Harrell, secretary of the North Carolina Teachers' As sembly, boasted that he would see the Queen of England while in that country. He has written back to a friend that he has not only seen her but has kissed her hand. lie is wel come to our part of that proceeding, as we don't think we would enjoy that much. We would be harassed by a doubt that it might not be clean. When Sheriff Flacker, of New York city, taused proceedings for divorce to be instituted in the name of hii wife, without her knowledge of it, and while the suit was pending and before it was granted took unto himself another wife, it was too much for even Gotham. Such a storm of indignation was raised that the sheriff had to resign and retire from the reach of the public for while. If all duels would result as the one recently fought on Alabama soil by two distinguished gentlemen of Georgia, Messrs. Calhoun (a grand ton of John C.) and Williamson, there would be no harm in them and a good deal of show. After fire shots by one and one from the other, neither was hurt, both retracted the insulting words and declared friend ship. They should be prosecuted, but as the Governor of Alabama can find, no citizen of that State who witnessed the duel it is not probable that any action will be taken. GOVERNOR FOWLE-S TACT. The people and press of North Carolina have never ceased since the Board of Directors of the Insane Asylum declared Dr. Grissom inno cent of the various grave charges against him to express their unquali fied disapprobation of that verdict, and to demand in settlement of this vexed question the resignation of Dr. Grissom. It seems that at last the wish of the people is to be grati fied, though in a rather unexpected way. The more rash of the anti Grissom men were disposed to resort to rash measures to remove the ob noxious officer, some of them even demanding that the Governor call an extra session of the Legislature to accomplish that end. The Gov ernor in the meantime has taken things quietly, and has even been accused of being a sympathizer with Dr. Grissom. But while seemingly quiet he was devoting earnest thought to the situation, and the outcome of it is that the demands of the people are to be acceded to and the Doctor is to be removed without the use of any revolutionary measures. Some years ago the Legislature authorised the Governor to constitute a Board of Public Charities, to have general supervision of the charitable institutions of the State. For some reason this was not done until Gov errior Fowle saw that it would be useful at this time and give him an excellent opportunity to remove some of the asylum directors by giving them positions on this board. Dr. Haywood was offered the chairman hip of the new board and accepted it, resigning his place as chairman of the asylum directors. One or two more directors were offered posi tions on this board, all of whom re signed as directors. One or two were asked for their resignations on the ground that they were holding other positions which conflicted with their positions as directors, the constitu tion forbidding them to hold two positions at the hand of the State. In this way were obtained the resig nations of Messrs. Capehart, Hough ton, Jackson and Capt Harris, and their places being filled by gentlemen who favored the views of the majority of thejpeople. The Board of Direc tors, as now constituted, contains six anti-Grissom men and three Grissom men. This looks like Grissom must go, and to Gov. Fowle's neat and tkillfnl management is due the credit. There is perhaps one view of the case that will strike some in an un favorable light, and that is the idea that the Governor nsed his powers to pack, as it were, the board with men who agreed with his views of the matter. This does not look right, and ordinarily would be an abuse of power. But in this case the Gover nor is sustained and applauded by Ills people, for it is clear that he has t heart the best interests of one of our noblest and best institutions, and the result to be attained is that so earnestly desired by an intelligent people, the consensus of whom is very seldom mistaken. Dr. Grissom displayed poor judg ment and bad taste in not resigning after his acquittal. He should have been satisfied with whatever exonera tion there might have been iu that verdict, and not gloat over his vic tory, writing to the directors indi vidually, as he did, that he would under no circumstances resign. The demands of a people are not to be trifled with. Grissom must go; and, when he does, all honor to our chief ! THE ELIXIR OF LIFE. New features are developing iu the Elixir of Life craze. It is about to prove, in some cases, an " Elixir of Death" instead. Some cases upon whom the experiments have been tried have been made violently ill, and vow many suits for damages should they recover. Some quacks in charge of almshouses, etc., with undue haste, have tried it indiscrim inately, as it is thought, with fatal results. One old gentleman upon whom it wa3 tried seemed wonder fully improved, and when the physi cians substituted for the mixture another perfectly harmless the im provement continued as before, show ing that what improvement was no ticed was due to the imagination and faith of the patient. This was too good to be true. But after all, if it were true, it had its unfavorable phases which make it seem not so desirable at last Sup pose youth could be made perpetual, what would become of those impor tant factors of civilization and pro gress, the old maids and bachelors ? They would become in the process of time practically extinct, and with them would pass away a good part of the wisdom of the world. Frequently there are found people who while not rich in the abundance of this world's goods have great ex pectancies some rich old uncle or aunt who at death is to leave them great wealth. These people, who have lived upon their expectancies and anticipations so long, would have to give them up and go to work if this old aunt or uncle should get hold of some of the elixir. As it is made of the distilled es sence of lamb it might possibly de velop in the patients an inordinate desire for "sheep," a propensity which is 6aid to be already largely predominant in the average darkie as he is now constituted. Under this treatment it might get the better of bis judgment and cause him serious trouble. This is quite possible. It is said of one for whose stomach there had been substituted that of a sheep that upon being asked how he felt he replied : " I fell quite well, but have a powerful hankering after grass." So in view of these and other dis advantages that mignt be named we would better ask our scientists to cease their efforts in this direction lest they might accidentally discover an Elixir of Life. Our Exchange Speak. The administration has given Brower " hush money" in the shape of several of the best postoffice ap pointments in the District, and the trick-mule will quit his kicking, we suppose. Reidsville Review. Blondin, who by the way must be a pretty old boy now, has wagered $20,000 that he can walk a cable from the top of the Eiffel Tower to the main building of the Paris Ex position in five minutes. He can do it if the day be calm. Blondin can walk a wire much easier than some men can walk on the ground. "Wil mington Star. A youug doctor of Augusta, Ga., says he is getting ready to try the Brown Sequard elixir, but will use the glands of a William goat, as this animal is noted for retaining its yonthful vivacity through an indefi nite number of year3,and an exuber ance of spirits that nothing can de press, while its vitality is proverbial. Wilmington Star. A good many factories are shut ting down about this time. This is what was predicted in the event of the passage of theMills bill and the re-election of Cleveland. But the Mills bill was not passed, Harrison was elected and the tariff was saved, and still the manufacturers are fail ing. The tariff organs are a little slow with their explanations of these things. Oxford Ledger. New York Evening Post on the appointment of a negro in the peni tentiary to a position as postmaster u The dangers of delay in making appointments could not be more im pressively illustrated than by such an incident as this. It is not merely me auueu inconvenience to tne I'ost master General which is involved in making new appointments when the original appointees are found unable to serve through being locked up. This, indeed, is but a minor ill. The more serious aspect of delay is the imprisonment of men who might escape the penitentiary if they Were promptly appointed to the public ser vice.

WASHINGTON LETTER. VARIOUS ITEMS OF INTEREST FROM THE NATIONAL CAPITAL. From Our Regular Correspondent. Washington, August 20. President Harrison flitted into town Friday and out again Satur day afternoon. The, horde of pop- hunters scented the game from afar and made a charge on the White House. There was weeping and gnashing of teeth when the hungry crowd was informed that the Presi dent could not be seen, and the agony was piled on when they dis covered that this was probably the last time President Harrison would come to "Washington before October. Saturday afternoon about the time that President and Mrs. Harrison and Private Secretary Halford were starting for Deer Park in the private car of President Meyer of the Bal timore and Ohio railroad half a dozen insignificant appointments were announced. The President and wife go to In dianapolis this week for the first time since the head of the house became our chief magistrate. I don't know how the old man is feeling about the trip, but it is no violation of confi dence to say that Mrs. Harrison is delighted, and she would be still more delighted if she was returning to stay, for she has never ceased to be home-sick and to pine for her quiet home in Indianapolis. The commission appointed to negotiate for the purchase of the Cherokee strip in Indian Territory has notified the Interior Department that nothing else can be done until their offer of $1.25 per acre is sub mitted to the Cherokee annual coun cil, which meets in November I am informed by one who I think knows that the extra session of Congress will be called for Octo ber 21 or 22. It is likely to be a memorable session. Already the prophecy lias been made by a well known Democrat that if the Republi cans of The House attempt to change the rules so they can admit all the contestants belonging to their party it will cause a continuous session to the 4th of March, US'Jl, when the Fifty-first Congress expires by limi tation. That is probably an extreme view, but all the signs indicate a very bitter political wrangle over the rules of the House. Commissioner Tanner reiterates that the personal relations between himself and Secretary Noble are the pleasantest He admits that there are official differences. It would be useless to deny it when hardly a day passes that the Seci-e-tary does not in some manner over rule or change some decision of the Commissioner. Just previous to the first of July Mr. Tanner decided that pension agents might make needed increases in their clerical force in excess of the money appro priated for that purpose, and that he would ask Congress for an appro priation covering the deficiency. As soon as the Secretary's attention was called to this he notified the pension agents that their clerical forces must be reduced to corre spond to the appropriation by Con gress and that he did not consider it lawful to make a deficiency by employing additional clerks. The next move by the Secretary that seems to rellect upon both the Com missioner of Pensions and the Com mission now engaged in investiga ting the re-rating of pensions was to order all the evidences in the re-rating of Senator Mandersons pen sion brought to his office Avhen he could make a personal examination of it. It seems very certain that unless the official relations of these two men are soon changed that one or the other will have to retire to private life. As it is now their opinions are too wide apart ror any thing approaching harmony. If the Democrats throughout the State are as enthusiastic over the ticket renominated at Richmond last week as are the Virginia Demo crats who frequent Washington, a victory is certain this fall. Big Tom Reed is booming for the Speakership of the House, and if it is true, as claimed now, that he is to be backed by the Republican na tional committee and the adminis tration, he can be put down as a certain winner. If the Democratic members had the selection for a Re publican for Speaker I think Mc Kinley, of Ohio, would be the man. He is a staunch Republican but is extremely liberal and fair minded. So much can hardly be said for Reed without seriously stretching the truth. An odd story has leaked out about M. M. Hurley, the Indiana Repub lican who recently declined the posi tion of Third Auditor of the Treas ury. At the time it was stated that he declared he had been tendered a more lucrative position by a railroad, but according to the story now told he declined because he was request ed to by President Harrison, and the reason he was asked was the discovery that the Government was now suino- him for money claimed to be due from him when he was removed by Mr. Cleveland from the postmaster ship at New Albanv, Indiana.
