THE SUiiD&flD. Friday, - - - November !.. Jas. P. Cook, B. E. ILvuitis, J Editors and Proprietors?. . KTASUARD SOTES. Several hundred while peo ple left Goldsboro for Arkan sas last Monday. Senator Hitchcock, of New ork, speaks ot liov. s imilt (0 Viston. and will need con visit to the South recently as . , , , absence in a foreign count ry The wheat crop of 18(5? sold for $1,284,000,000. That of 1887 which was twice as large sold for nearly 80,000,000 dol lars less. Why is this. Sam Jones says that it is a popular delusion of the Xorth that "the chief occupation of the Southern man is to swear, drink whiskey and. shoot nig gers for pastime."' The negroes of Texas own 1,000,000 acres of land and their wealth is estimated at $20,000,000. This shows what this race can do when they try, and this is in the South too. All privileges at the Univer sity of Philadelphia have been extended to ladies. They stand on equal rights with the men there. In contesting for prizes and position in class, it is a contest of merit into which the question of sex does not enter. Some crank wants to build a granite tower in New York 1,000 feet high, and surmount it with the statue of liberty. A London man proposes to build there a tower l,2."o feet high. This is getting to be like the tower of Babel. People think if they can't get there any other way, they will build towers. At -v. G.AV. Jones, who some time ago brought suit against the town of Statesville for injuries received by falling into an ex cavation in the corporate lim its of the town, died about j two AvweKs ago, and a post mortem examination was made to ascertain the nature of his injuries from the fall. A recent decision of the X. 0. Supreme Court is to the ef feet that ."a husband can mort gage his real estate without the signature of his wife, un less that identical piece of property has previously been set aside as his homestead by his appraisers. The Raleigh Signal says that Messrs. Charles M. Busbee and Samuel F.Mordecai,two young Raleigh lawyers, when they argue a case before the Su preme Court, always have in their pockets the left hind foot of a grave-yard rabbit. Since beginning this custom they are very successful with their cases. The teachers in a school in New York City were on a strike last week. The grave question at issue was bangs or no bangs. The principal decided that bangs must go, the teachers determined (and wisely too) that they should not go, and they are still wearing them. We are in favor of bangs. "Bangs are very useful." Kind words are cheap and yet sometimes they are so scarce ! It is a wonderful en couragement to receive a kind and appreciative word occa sionally, even if there is a sus picion that there is a little flattery mixed with it. The value to the receiver far ex ceeds the cost to the giver. Then be more liberal with them. There is a decission of the Supreme Court given last week in the case of Killibrew vs Hines that may interest faim ers: In this case, it is held that a mortgagor in possession can gie a valid lein for advan ces, which will prevail against any claim of the mortgages upon the crops arising by vir tue of the mortgage. This de cision is very important, in view of the fact that it modi fies so greatly the former rul ing of the court. Here is what the Fulton Re nubliean. of McConnellsbunr, Pa., . has to say about Miss Winnie Davis : "Miss Winnie Davis, daughter of Jeff Davis, and known in the South asthe Daughter of Confederacy,' has sailed to Europe. The YouT32 woman still has faith 4 flip Lost Cause and has it her religion." The Northern people evi dently don't believe that the Southern people are wen constructed yet. ANOTHER RAILROAD NEEDED. Conmrd and Cabarrus need an other railroad, not only the road to Ml. Pleasant which wo liopo to have soon, but a through competing line, one that can cope with the Richmond & Uanville. This sounds like pretty big talk, but it is by no means one of the impossibilities. The (Jeorgia. Carolina and Northern railroad is being built between At lanta and Monroe, and will be built at no very distant day. This road will need Northern connections. The Koanoke Southern is now being not these two great roads be connect ed by a road between Winston and Monroe? And if this should be dune, why should not Concord and Cabarrus bo on the route? It can he done and w ill be done, if our peo ple will awake to a realization of the vast importance of such a connection, and be generous enough with the "boodle." It would require a liber al subscription but would be worth all it would cost. "While Concord was a little way-side station, it did not make so much difference about the railroad facilities, and unjust discrimination in rates. But now that she is already a manufacturing centre of no mean reputation, with other and large factories in course of construction, better railroad facili ties are a prime necessity. We heard a large shipper say recently while it cost 40 cents a hundred pounds to ship goods to Atlanta, (Jeorgia, the same goods could be shipped to Xcw York for 3G cents. Another remarked that cotton had been shipped from Augusta, Georgia, to Richmond, Virginia, by Concord, for C5 cents a bale cheaper than they could be shipped from this place. This is an unjust discrimination m favor of other places, and should be remedied. We naturally expected the Interstate Hail road Commission to do it, but somehow they do not seem to consider that a part of their duties. The onlv available remedy to secure better railroad facilities .Let us think on ana discuss uie&e things, and should an opportunity ever he presented, be prepared to do our part by it. LINCOLN'S POLICY. The Southern people are begin ning to feel that in the untimely as sassination of President Lincoln, they lost one of their best friends, lie had such odds to contend against in the tierce and hateful spirits of those around him who largely dic tated the policy of the Federal gov ernment, such as Seward and Stan ton, that his own honest, kindly na ture did not have free course, audits beneficent influence was not felt as it otherwise would have been. The Century for this mouth contains a draft of a proclamation that was submitted by Mr. Lincoln to his cab- net February 5th, 18C5. In this proclamation he proposed to pay $400,000,000 for the slaves, to allow amnesty in full to the Southern peo ple and to return all confiscated property. What a vast difference between the results of this plan and the one that was urged by his ad visors at the time and pursued by his successor! Mr. Lincoln seemed one of the few who considered the ate war a quarrel between brothers instead of one between bitter ene mies with no common interests. lie was willing to sacrifice something in order that in the settlement of these differences, harmony might be re stored and fraternal relations might be maintained. THE CROSS-WHITE CASE DECIDED. The Supreme Court of the LTnited States has decided the Cro33-Whitc case against them and in favor of the State. The appeal was taken on the ground that their offense making false entries was under the jurisdic tion of the Federal Court, and not under that of the State. While this is so, they were tried by the State on ! the charge of forgery, an offense with which the Federal Courts have nothing to do. This decision is final and nothing remains but for these men to serve out their time as sentenced one for seven, the other for five years, on the county roads. Their only hope is for executive clemency, and it is hardly probable that Gov. Fowle will inter fere. Certainly it is to be hoped he will not. These two men have had ample opportunities for fairness, and the decisions of the courts have been ajainst them. Now lot justice be done. . ! The following, which is given by the Quincy (111.) Herald as the words of a prominent Republican of that city, shows that the Northerners ap preciate the political situation in the South, when they tske the trouble to investigate it: "I have been in the South a great deal, and while 1 believe in Kepubli can principles I would certainly vote the Democratic ticket if i lived in the South. There is a great outery in the North about the political con dition of 'the. South, but I tell you that tiie people ot that country can not afford to allow the iu-grops to rule. They must either keep the control or ue nuneu. DROPS OF Tar, riN-li nnil Turpentine I'rom llic Old Norlh Stale. So! laud Neck is to have a new hotel. A sheep ranch is to be started in Catawba county soon. Durham is soon to have a whole sale and retail confectionery store. Concordia College at Conover, N. C, has an enrollment of 110 pupils. Two children in (Jaston county were bitten by mad dogs last week. lluntersville, Mecklenburg coun ty, is to have a new depot and a new hotel. Raleigh had a chrysanthemum show last Tuesday, for the benefit of a hospital. Ceo. Holt, of Chatham, has kept up the same sweet potato seed for sixty years. Coal has lately beeu discovered in two counties of this State Wilkes and Granville. The internal revenue collections at the Durham office for the week ending last Saturday amounted to over $15,000. There were 300 conversions at the Pearson meetings just closed at Hen derson, X. C. Gov. Fitz Hugh Lee, of Virginia, is to deliver an address at the Clin ton Fair, December 5th. A grand free fair is to be held by the Alliance at Peachland, X. C, from November 2Cth to 30th. The cotton receipts at Wilmington for last week are 2,404 bales behind the receipts for the same week last year. As a negro was being arrested in Wilson last week, for stealing peas, he broke away and was shot at. He died from the wounds. Josiah Stancill, the Selma post master, was arrested Saturday for robbing registered letters. lie gave bond and lias been released. A collision between two freights occurred near Wilmington, on the Carolina Central Monday. George P. Smith, fireman, was killed. Emmit Xichols, son of Hon. John Nichols, of Raleigh, died of heart disease, at Washington' Saturday night and his body was brought to Kaleigh for burial. Of all the daily papers in this State in 1874, the Wilmington Star is the only one which survives under its original name and under its original management. The transaction of taking up the $147,000 of State bonds by the United States Government has been concluded, and the State is now in the possession of the bonds. A negro policeman at Shine, Greene county, was shot and killed last week by a white man, whom the negro was trying to arrest for being drunk. Stocks, the white man, has escaped. J. A. Mcrton, of Anson county, died under such peculiar circum stances November 2nd,thatpoisoning was suggested and his stomach has been sent to the State Chemist for examination. Mrs. Celia Brown, CO years, and her little 8 year old grand-son, who w ere living together, were murdered Saturday morning at their home in Johnson countv, and their bodies were hidden in the woods. T. D. Garrett, of Greensboro, at tempted last Friday to commit sui cide while on the train near Greens boro, by cutting his throat with a knife. It is thought he will recover. Eight razors were found on his per son. Two men in Wake county last week made a bet as to which one could eat the most chicken stew. They both together ate six chickens, and neither won the bet. One of them has since died, and the other has been very ill. Col. White, a Pennsylvanian who was proprietor of the King's Moun tain Iron Works, was found dead last Friday night on the way between King's Mountain and Clover, S. C. He is supposed to have had heart disease or apoplexy. Mr. Francis T. Bryan, of St. Louis, Missouri, formerly a citizen of Raleigh, N. C, and a distinguish ed graduato at the University of North Carolina, as well as at West Point, who did gallant service in the Mexican war, has donated to the library of his Alma Hater at Chapel Hill nearly two hundred volumes of rare and costly 'works on architect ure, engineering, Biblical and classi cal literature, The suit brought by Dr. Hodge, of Wake county, against all the rail roads in the State for not making the reports for 1888 that were re quired by law, came up before Judge Arm field at the October term of the Wake court. The defendant rail roads claimed that the demurrer was frivolous. Judge Armfield refused, to allow this claim, and the case will come up before the regular spring term of the Wa'se court. The fine is 500 for each railroad, and aggre gates some $40,000 for Dr. Hodge. Washington Letter. From our Regular Correspondent. Washix;to, 1) C, Nov. 1189. Ex- 'resident Cleveland's visit to Washington last week to witness the Bayard-Clymer wedding was at a time singularly significant. lie came back to Washington for the first time since the close of his adminis tration with his party in the first Hush of a splendid victory. His call upon President Harrison was the call of a victor upon vanquished foe, for of course Mr. Cleveland insists upon taking a personal view of the result in Iowa, Ohio and Virginia and at tributes it all to the growth of the tariff refo' in government throughout the country. President Cleveland has grown much stouter, in fact enormously and distressingly fat, since last March. He must weigh over three hundred and fifty pounds. His wife, on the other hand, is more winsome than ever. The haggard, drawn look of the society leader is gone. No care rests on her. Another man who takes a purely personal viey of the result is Cor poral Tanner, who was the head of the Tension Bureau for a shorter time than any bureau or cabinet of ficer ever reigned before. He states that the defeat of the Republican party is due to the treatment he re ceived from the administration. He sees in the result the hand of Divine l'ower operating for the overflow of the enemies of the elect. Xo more eijrantic self-sufliciencv was ever DO w seen. Among the department clerks and small officials of Republican faith the belief that President Harrison is largely to blame for the defeat is manifest. He has succeeded in mak ing hundreds of distasteful appoint ments throughout the country and he has withheld from appointing jrood ones. Postmaster General Wan amaker's disregard for men who have done good party service and ap pointments of men recommended solely by religious socialists is also given as a potent cause for the evi dent satisfaction among Republi cans. Mahone's defeat is secretly regarded with satisfaction. Mahone has neither tiie respect nor the con fidence of the Republican leaders apart from Quay and Dudley. Virginia is essentially a Democratic State and the only way to carry it for the Republicans is to spend a mint of money and give every man in the State who will not work for his living a clerkship in the departments here. This has been substantially the plan and only the occasional re straining influence of the civil ser vice law has made victory for Ma hone impossible. The news of the Goodloe-Swope tragedy so affected the President that he dropped the book he was reading to the floor. I knew Col. Swope and Col. Goodloe well. The latter was much the abler man, an orator, a man of wide travel and quick obser vation, of deep learning and a va-t knowledge of men, but Col. Swoj-e was by no means a mediocre man. Both were thoroughly liked and the constant watching of their friends to avoid any accidental meeting of these enemies during President Har rison's inauguration was a matter cf common knowledge. A cab drove to the main entrance to Willard's last night and a tall man alighted, and telling the wait ing porters that the baggage was all coming on the wagon "doncher kuow," passed through the swinging doors and up to the desk. The gas light fell upon blonde whiskers, blonde clothes, a great plaid cape-top coat, a big diamond emblem scarf pin and an enormous diamond ring. The clerk, a grizzled veteran in the business, was charmed. The stran ger wrote on the register, "Sir Wil liam Mackenzie" and "Sir Roger Mackensie and wife." lie ordered a parlor and three chambers with pri vate bath rooms, and added that Sir Roger and my lady would arrive by the next train from Xew York, and that everything be prepared and "of the best." The clerk was over whelmed. Nothing as gorgeous had been seen in that hotel since the war. So when a moment later Sir William remembered that he must send a cablegaam and "by jove, hadn't a pound about him," the clerk joyfully handed him a twenty dollar bill from the cash drawer. Remember that this clerk has been in the hotel business for twenty years, and then think of that bogus lord say rather king of cheek passing through the telegraph office and drifting out into the night to be seen of the clerk no more. The same individual played the same game at three hotels in less than an hour and the police have not found him yet. Vice president Morton takes with becoming good humor the scathing criticisms of the Women's Christian Temperance Union at their Chicago convention. He simply says that in giving permission as a property hol der for the sale of liquor in his new hotpl, te Shorehan, he was merely acting the part pf a gyod business man. There is not a high class hotel in Washington without a bar and wine served at table. There were formerly two small temperance lioiela conducted by ladies, but one of these bankrupted two months ago and the other is really only a coffee house with a few rooms attached for the semi-occasional guests. The im portance of a hotel bar is not alone in its direct profit. It helps hold custom for. nine tenths of the richer hotel guests will hot stop at a carav ansary that is without a bar. Cabarrns County. Here is what Mr. J. L. Ramsay, who has recently canvassed the coun ty for the Progressive Farmer, has to say about our county in that pa per : Concord, the county seat of Ca barrus county, is situated on the Richmond & Danville railroad, about midway between Charlotte and Sal isbury. When we consider that the town has no diverging lines of rail way is merely a way station, we will conclude that it required pluck to build such a beautiful town. Concord has two large cotton fac tories in operation. The Odell Com pany are building an immense addi tion to their large factory, which, when completed, will furnish work for between 800 and 1,200 operatives. Concord has two lively country pa pers and both seem to be liberally supported. The town has a number of handsome churches and no bar rooms. The street railway "is a sight." Tracks are laid along the principal streets with ordinary rail road iron and a dummy engine pulls freight to any business house, there by saving drayage, etc. Rocky River Alliance, No. 164, is one of the best in North Carolina. It lias a large and constantly increas ing membership. More than thirty copies of the Progressive Farmer are taken by that Alliance alone. They have an excellent set of officers and progressive members. Rocky River is a grand neighborhood one of the best in this country. The southern pait of Cabarrus county is an excellent bee-raising section. Many farmers are raising bees and doiiur well. It is also a fine country for outs and corn, cotton does not vield as largely as in the northern part. The people of Cabarrus are law. abiding and moral, sober and indus trious. Many of them fairly well off and intelligent. But, unfortunately there is as much ignorance here as well as elsewhere. Alas! That is one great difficulty the Alliance has to contend with. If it can only get the people aroused from this state of lethargy it will have accomplished one-half of its grand mission. I met Prof. McAnulty, the famous weather prophet, yesterday. He i an active Alliance man and reads the Progressive Farmer. Of course this is a pretty good recommendation. He got up a job lot of weather for me to travel in for the next few- weeks which will be -quite accepta ble, as it is to be dry. The profess, or ranks with Wiggins and other fa mous men who run the weather bus iness. I only had time to talk with him a few minutes, but if I could have spared time I would have sug gested that he and Wiggins had bet ter not send another killing frost to damage the cotton next year, unless they were tired of this cruel world. J. L. R. A Illrh Uold Find. Aews has been received in Salis bury of a rich gold find in Mont gomery county. The last week in October there was taken out 2,000 pennyweights, and sent besides, sev en pounds of gold ore to the Char lotte mint. In one rockerful of grit four ounces of gold was found. The gold is in placer's grit, and is the richest ever found in the State. Two peck baskets full of gold and speci mens were taken out of the mine Thursday. Tebe Saunders has one hundred hands at work, and gets so much gold that no pretense is made at weighing it except on a pair of grocer s scales, or to measure it in a half pint cup to pay the royalty, which is shared by the hands. Be low the grit small veins are found that are more than half gold. There is no fraud about this, for the gold shows for itself, and it has created intense excitement in mining circles. Alarmingly Immense. Hon. Wm. E. Russell, Democrat ic candidate for Governor of Massa chusetts says: "The money paid out of the Treasury last year on account of pensions exceeds the annual expenT diture of Great Britain for her whole military establishment, with her garrisons on every part of the globe. We are accustomed to speak of the prodigious armies of the Ger man empire as a crushing weight upon the industry and enterprise of that nation and as example of tyran ny that causes thousands of Ger mans ever year to leave their coun try, yet the annual military expen diture of Germany is less than the pension appropriations of the last Congress. The number of our pen sioners is statad to be greater than the muster rolls of the ' armies against which they fought, and the pending applications' outariinjbej; those that have been granted.'-' " : From Oar Exchange.

There is one effect to follow hav ing plenty of money, and that is that you will always escape the gal lows. Greensboro Workman.

Kinston Free Press. Thomas rrancis Bnrke died in Xew York on Sunday. He was general in the Confederate army took part in the Feniau uprising in Ireland in 1867, was convicted and sentenced to be hung, pardoned in 1871. when he returned to this country. He was one of the char ter members of the County Demic racy. Salisbury Herald. The Morgranton Star says the Board of Alderman of the town of Marion have imposed a tax of $3 on visiting lawyers. That is protective tariff legislation with a vengeance The idea is, doubtless, to build home market for local lawyers and protect them from competition with the pauper lawyers of adjacent communities. Statesville Land mark. There is some talk in North Caro lina about largely increasing the public school fund. We do not be lieve the white tax-payers favor any material increase so long as the money is apportioned as it now is between the whites and negroes Nor do we believe that they favor the Blair bill, either. Wilmington Star. Education cannot be acquired without pains and application. It is troublesome and deep digging for pure water, but when once you come to the springs, they rise up and meet you. Every grain helps to fill the bushel, so does the improvement of every moment and every opportunity increase knowledge. In this day and time ignorance may be consid ered a voluntary misfortune. Dur ham Sun. The W. N. C. R, R. is putting in a longer switch at Conover. It will hold a hundred cars. They also offer an acre lot to Conover if the citizens will put up a large hotel on it. The W.

They are going to put up a car shed and a telegraph office and make Conover their regular stopping point between Asheville and Salis bury. That will help Conover out considerably. Press and Caroli nian. It wants to he borne steadily in mind that the victory in the State of New York, Tuesday, was the victory of David B. Hill. It was his influ ence that nominated the ticket that was elected he named it; it was the platform of his making on which the candidates stood. If the Republicans had carried the State the blame would have been laid upon Hill; the Democrats carried it and the glory- belongs to Hill the wisest and most successful politician of the day. Statesvilje Landmaak, Chableston, S. C, October 31. Hon. Jas'. Edward Calhoun, of Abbeville, cousin and brother-in-law of John C. Calhoun, died to-day aged 93. Calhoun entered the United States Navy in 1816, resigned in 1883, being the wealthiest officer in the service. At his death he was the largest land owner in the State with a homestead of 25,000 acres, rich Savannah lands, 165,000 acres of mountain land in Pickens and Oconee counties. For the last fifty years he has led a life of a her. nut devoting hitmelf exclusively to. the increased his estate. Bltam' Salem Alma FOE AT S W X 1ST 3I' S.
