,-1 the sthd.rd. Thchsday, - - October 1C, 1S0O. JAMES P. COOK, Editor. BREVARD E. HARRIS, CORRESPOND ING EDITOR. RTAXUARD 'SOTES. Looking in the mirror you see yourself as others see you. The Republicans are manipulating w ith some soreheads to defeat CoavIcs. It is foolish to discuss the tariff as an economic question, and it has be come nothing but a machine of high handed robbery. Capt. Rogers, who was the Dem ocratic congressional nominee iu the Second District, has resigned on ac count of ill health. Nearly $200,000 worth of real es tate has changed hands in Winston within three days. The private land boom is a big concern. The Durham Globe is trying to roll over and mash Mr. Joe Daniels, of the State Chronicle. What's the matter with our Fair-brother ? "The sugar of my hopes, The molasses of my expectations, Come to my arms, You greasy fritter." Zeb Vance's? love letter. The editor of the High Toint En terprise in the latest issue announced hi3 birthday. lie failed to tell his age ; he acted a good deal like a wo man in that. But then he's single. Col. A. C. Haskell, of South Caro lina, wants to be governor of the State. He is opposing B. Iu Till man, the nominee. Haskell, after the election, will sound like this : Has-kill. Your tin cups, oil cans and tin roofs will cost ycu more now. The price of tin has gone up 65 cents on the hundred pounds. This is caused by the sublime influences of the Mc Kinley tariff bill. The Charlotte News will celebrate its second birthday by enlarging it self. Wade Harris, besides being one of the most brilliant journalistic stars on the press of North Carolina, is a pusher, and we hope will get there. Rejoice! One bank boodler an swers the roll all to justice. W. II. SchrieWr, of Ind., who robbed a bank of f 300,000, has been sentenced to twelve .years in prison. He real izes, however, $25,000 per year for his services in prison. The nation's prettiest gentleman : John Wannamaker. He closed the postoflice at Bishopville, S. C, be cause the people kicked against the appointment of a colored man. There are no flies on John he must be blood kin to Tom Reed. The Winston Daily has figured it down that Winston-Salem will have by the census of l'.'OO just 01,278 in habitants. There's not a bi t of doubt about it. It now has 16,041, and to gain in ten years 45,23? inhabitants is not much for a booming tobacco town. In about two months purchasers will feel the glorious effects of the McKinley tariff bill. Knives that cost the merchant $4.25 per dozen will cost $6.02 ; guns that cost them $5.00 a piece will cost $7. Who has this to pay? .The consumer, bless your soul. Fruits of the McKinley bill : Value of l,47o gross pearl buttons, 9 25 per cent, duty, Additional duty under Mc Kinley tariff, 628.00 157.00 754.80 $1,530.80 It is the duty of every man living in a town to boom that town, other wise he is not a good citizen. If we have live, progressive towns in North Carolina, we are sure' to have good produce markets, thus banefitting the whole country. Let's start that way now. By a recent report, we see tliat T. Schumann, of Atlanta, Ga, has been granted a patent on a cash indicator. Something of that kind is needed quite much. It is needed to tell how much " splurges " are worth to prevent innocent suckers from being picked up. A Southern man who supports that force bill ought not be allowed to live among us. I do not mean that I favor violence, for I have seen enough of violence, God knows. But there is such a thing as driving a man from among yon by your con tempt and intolerance. Senator Vance. Dr. Pierce, the patent medicine man, has been sued. W. 8. Wise, (if New York, has instituted proceed ings to recover damages for aliena ting the affections of his wife. Wise failed to make his wife wise, but can't Dr. Pierce invent a medicine that would make him let other people's wives alone? A suit of clothes that you have been buying for $10. will cost you next year $11.50. You see McKin ley ; you Eee the McKinley bill ; you see how a Republican congress loves you. Just remember that the tariff affects the cheap goods that the poor man wears it does not material lv affect the fine goods. There are some leather-heads who don't intend to register just so they can get something to grumble about on the day of the election. If there should be a regiment of independ ents out, then you will wish you had taken our advice and registered. If every Democratic voter would only register, and then 2 sure to co to the election, Democratic success is as sured. The most contemptible fraud ever shoved over the American people is the last census. It was nothine more than a political machine that increased or decreased population according, to whether the districts were Republican or Democratic, to IreeD the dominant party in power. SO they can enact- such laws as the McKinley tariff law, the lard bill, and, if pOfsiDie, me uamnauie eiec tioa hill, XEW6 01-" I HE DAY. Tmnton, X. J., Oct. 10. Jos.

Trenton, N. J., October 13. Dajiiel F. Beatty was indicted today by the Federal grand jury in session here for the fraudulent use of the mails. Mr. Beatty is a manufacturer of organs, and is charged with send ing circulars through the country ottering organs at ridiculously low prices and after the receipt of the money refusing to fill the order till a further sum would bo forwarded, claiming that he had run out of the cheaper instruments. Richmond, Va., Oct. 10. A com mittee of colored men waited npou the Governor yesterday and request ed him to order the Richmond How itzers to lire a salute during emanci pation celebration in this city. The governor was somewhat nonplussed by the request, and said he would consider the matter. The Howitzers is the crack white company in this city, and the persons composing it are in high social standing. Much stir has been created in military cir cles by the matter. Wheeling. W. Va., Oct. 11. Dis patches from the interior, from Wes ton, Grafton. Philinpi, and points on the West fork of the Monongahela, Tygart's Valley, Little Kanawha, and" other tributaries of the Ohio, say that the storm reported Sunday, night extended over a wide area of country. Every where the heaviest fall of rain ever known occurred, amounting to a waterspout All streams are swollen and tmllie is en tirely suspended. Great damage has been done to property. Weston Avas flooded, and the loss will run into thousands. Parkersburg, West Va., Oct. 14. Sunday night and yesterday morn ing the heaviest rain for years fell in this section. All the counties north of the Little Kanawha are flooded, causing much damage. The Kanawha River is swollen for oS miles, and large quantities of timber, grain, and logs and many houses are afloat. Several fanners have lost their entire crop. All the railroads entering here have suHVivd. The fourth division of the Baltimore .v Ohio is entirely abandoned, no less than "0 trestles and bridges beinu washed away. No train has come' from Wheeling since Sunday night. In Ritchie county much dama.se is reported. No reports of lo of life have as yet been received. Charleston, S. C, October 8. The funeral services over the remains of Henry D. Ilowivn were conducted at Trinity Church in this city this a!'-; tcmoun. by Rev. Mr. Wells, the ju tor of Trinity, and the remains were laid to rest in mo M Metnoiijst burying grounds in tlii- city, wlu-re lie the father and grandfather of the deceased. A large con four.--J of friends attended the distinguished young lecturers funeral and the whole city regret the loss of the peer less evangelist. The whole press of Charleston attended the funeral in a body and the following of that body wre the pall beasers: Jchn A. Mo rose, Yates Snow den, Geo. R. Kol-Ur, William J. Robison, Clyde B. West, Louis A. Beaty. Justice Samuel F. Miller, of the United States Supreme Court, was suddenly paralyzed Friday afternoon on the street near his residence in Washington. He was carried into the house, and seemingly got better that night, but Satwrdav" nioriiin? ne ucgan to grow worse ami con tinued to do so until he died yester day. His death is a national calamity. He was in his sevcnty-lifth year, and was the oldest member of the court, both in jeans and in length of ser vice, having been appointed by Mr. Lincoln in 1862. Justice Miller wa3 one of the few men who could be a partisan of the most radical type without ever having the slight est imputation cast upon his judicial integrity, and who always had the respect and personal friendship of his political opponents. He was the author of many important opinions, some of them exciting extended comment, particularly those relating to States' rights, some of which went as far in their way as any ever expressed by Calhoun in nullification days. "The King 13 dead. Long live the King." People are alreadv beginning to talk of justice Miller's successor, and the popular opinion seems to be that Mr. Harrison will insist on appointing Attorney Gen- era .uiuer, w nom ne. was anxious to ippoint last vear instead of Justice Lrewcr. Lut the Indiana UepuUi- cans will oppose this just as they did before, aud as they were strong enough to carrv their ix.int ther. they may do so again. Judge Grcsh- un is also spoken of, and some think that it would be an excellent way for Mr. Harrison to leinove his oulv Indiana rival. Pearson at Anderson. Anderson, S. C, Oct. 10. The close of the Pearson meeting took placj last night amid such scenes as were never before witnessed here. Long before the hour for the services to open the crowd becan to cruthcr and when 8 o'clock came, staiidin' room was at a premium. Mr. Pear son preached a most impressive ser mon from the text "what shall I do with Jesus which is called Christ?' At the close of the services Mr Pearson made a short, earnest talk. after which J)r. U. E. Frierson. of the rresbyterian Church, the Ilev It. 11. Smith, of the Laptist Church. and the Pev. C. P. Smith, of the Methodist Church, made short talks. Mr. Pearson then delivered the bene diction and the most wonderful meeting ever known here came to a close. The doors of the various churches w ill be opened for tho re ception of members next Sunday morning. Sunday night there will be a union service of praise and thanksgiving held at the Pant is t Church. "13 IT A FKACD?1 Washington, 1). C, Oct. 11. A .....'must be at the revelations of the ponce re-enumeration m unit city the people of the Republic at larj.e must be prepared for a far greater shock. If they will look over the country, the honest men of all parties will discover that there is a method in tho errors that have t een proven to exist in the census reports. The web of entangling evidence has already enmeshed a Congressman from Brooklyn, a brace of political managers in that city and half a dozen clerks in various departments of the Census Office. Clues leading to very much high er game are in The AVorld's posses sion, but it is deemed wise and proper to put the people of the country on their guard without further delay, that an official investigation may be prosecuted at once. The evidence so far adduced ap pears to show First That there is a deliberate purpose on the part of the leaders of the dominant party to retain the Congressional majority now in its grasp. Second That to serve this end a gang of unscrupulous men, with or without the sanction of the leaders of their party, have connived and conispired together to defraud many of the States of this Union out of their legitimate Congressional repre sentation. Third That a secret office. was llt tep up in Washington at No. 206 D street, N. AY, where a gang of trust ed clerks were detailed to alter the true census returns by scaling down the totals or increasing the same that the growth of Democratic States should not he honestly reported. Fourth That an order was given by an official in the Census Office (with or without the connivance of men high in authority in the Gov ernment) to scale down the popula tion of New York City one hundred and thirty-three thousand ! Fifth I'hat an order was given an official in the Census Office (with or without the knowledge and ap provial of high authorities in this Government) to reduce the true cen sus of New York State Three Hun dred Thousand souls! Sixth That the State of New Hampshire, which has lost popula tion, wr.s to be scaled up so that its present quota of Congressional re presentation should not-be changed. Seventh That ' Illinois, lo.va, Wiseoitsin, Maine and Minnesota were to be "very liberally counted;"" and that ihi blunders at -Minneapolis and St. Paul arose from a stupid misinterpretation of instructions. Eighth That the Southern States w to be "jumped upon. that nave sln-un greatest Li'owtii 1, were to suffer to the O.icIji of 11 to Id per cent. Ninth That this infamous job has. to a luge extent been carried out and t hat when the researches of The World frightened the conspirators' they moved-the secret ollice from No. 2od 1) street, Washington, to Cathe dral street, llaltimore, near the Mon ument, where for the past six weeks the dastardly work has been in pro-1 'leuth That enough evidence ex ists to discredit the whole census, in dependent of the exposures in New York City. The World has in its possession the names of the men who have been active in this work, and of nearly all t lie clerks who were detailed to en gage in the monstrous und'itak ing. TH K SToItY oK Till: UtAl I. Karly in June last it was appar ently decided to undertake this dan gerous and, up to this time, new step ii: "practical politics." A certain Mr. Morton organized the work. The second story of a three-floored house on 1) street (Xo. 205) was rented at $20 per month, and cartloads of ma terial from the Census Office were re moved thereto. Twelve clerks who could be relied upon to hold their tongues were engaged in July. and put to work. The duties of these men were con tinuous: thev toiled day and night. The tallv cards of certain states were brought to the D street house at night, retained a few days and then returned to the Census Office. The h.ndlady of "the ho ise, Mrs. Duling, a matronly and comely wo manly of thirty-five, grew curious to know what work was being prosecu ted in her apartments. She asked Stephen W. Xorton, an appointee in the Census Office from Winfield, Kan., what he knew about the mat ter, but gained no information. She likewise importuned Census Clerks Sarvis, Church, Wilson and Octavius, who were employed on the work, for information. She did not get any. Shortly after this incident a great mass of census material was burned in the second story front room o'f the 1) street house. A man giving the name of Nelson then appeared upon the scene. His authority with the clerks was re spected by all. He was chiefly in strumental in the final removal of the office to Paltimore, he taking up his abode at the Carrolton Hotel. His name is probably an assumed one. Xew York World. L?xin We had ton, X. C, Oct. 11, 1800. a shooting match in our town this morning between two of our colored aristocratic barbers. John Mcltary, colored, shot Osker Barringer, and mortally wounded him. The shooting was mutual, both parties engaging in it until their pistols were emptied, but McPay was not hit and he made good his escape, Parringer has three distinct bullet holes in his body; and i is thought he will die. The trouble occured abcut Mcliary's wife. Mc Pary accused Parringer of being too intimate with her an. I wroLe him a note that if he did not leave the State iu twenty-four hours, he would kill him; the time expired this morn ing, and Parringer was still here, when McUary, true to his word, went to bis shop and shot him. STATE : :? K- Steve Jacobs was hanged at Lmn berton Friday, jli.s farewell words were, '-Tell uil to avoid whiskey a':d bad company." His crime was the murder or three women. Evening Visitor: The fast pas senirer train from Raleigh to Wilkes- boro will soon be put on. It will leave Raleigh about 4 a. m., return ing the same day. It will be a great convenience both in the way of pleas ure and business. Dur .am Sun: It is stated in Hickory that the faculty of Ruther ford College have decided to remove that institution to Old Fort. The town o;Te:s ftlo,00. You remember the main buildings of this college were burned recently. Several days ago as a son of Mr. J. Moser, of Forsyth county, lifted his rake to throw the hay a big highland moccasin struck him on the wrist. The arm swelled horribly, but whisky and other remedies were applied promptly and the young man is now all right. A correspondent claims that Yad kin county has two of the oldest liv ing people in the Siate. One is .lames Banner, colored, aged 105, and the other, is his wife aged 112. These ages can be prove by records it! the hands of th ir former owner's son, Dr. i'anner, of Ml. Airy. Winston Daily: Two baud cars on the Mocksville branch road collided ilondav eveninir ami lVtiuluu in an- i n jury to the extent of a broken leg to Isom llairston, col., who was thrown off one of the cars. The other hands jumped off in time to save any further damages. Asheville Citizen: Ben Benson, colore!, who drives for Blair & Brown, furniture dealers, was as saulted and stabbed on Flint street Saturday night. He nreiu-d a wound between tho second and third ribs.on the left side, and penetrating the up per lobe of t .e left lung. He says that he was walking on Flint street about half past eleven o'clock, when some white men that he did not know nr.'t nim. One of them asked him where lie was going. He said he was going about his business. 'The man then stepped up to him and stabbed him. Benson says he would not know the man if he were to see him. Dr. .1. C. I'.. Justice attended to the man's wo nr. I, and savs it is serious but ivt fatal. Wilmington Messenger: Lav hist Saturday afternoon, Mr. Allman Bosworth, of Stanly i-ountv, was instantly killed by having his h"::d eauirlj. between the kver of a care mill and a upright post, used in the 1 construction of the mill. Mr. Los-i ' worlh was repairing souk part of the machinery which was out of or der, his h'-ad b ing :.-;tf the p.wf. n'.ietl th- ievef cai.ie aro.'bd :;t:d caught his head iiiid p.tssKi against the p-sf. crushing the bao p irt of it, and hilling him inskiutlv. Mr. Fosworth was ;:bout st-veiity-i five years old ai.u was es'oeme.l a! good ami hom-.; mat! bv all who: knew him. lie lived iie miles above Norwood, and haves u wife and several children. Maxton I'hion: The indications now are that the crops will not nine up to the expectations of sixty days ago. It seems that the hut day set for the sale of lots at Powhind was a complete failure. None at all were disposed of. Cotton pick ers went on a strike a few days since for an increase in pay of from forty to fifty cents per hundred. Sme farmers hae complied with their request while others have not. We learn that tho oil mills are not able to get seed enough to run on half time, at least this is the case with the Rowland and Pilloii mills. This is to be regretted as our people have their money in these enterpri ses and v.e would be glad to see them succeed. Put tiie farmers iu many instances claim that it pats better t use the seed as a fertilizer than to sell the seed and buy Uieal. Others who want to sell are holding for higher prices. BttowER Got His Mouth Mashed. Peidsville, X. C.,Oct. 11. At the court house in Wentworth todav an exciting personal conflict occurred between Congressman Prower and Jos. Pradlield, Esq., a well-known correspondent and Pepubliean, in which Prower came out second best, receiving an ugly gash in the face from Mr. P'radticld's list. The trouble grew out of au article in the Peidsville Peview in which serious charges of notorious immorality were preferred against Piower. Prower began his speech by denying the charge and denouncing Mr. Prad lield as the author of the allegations, whereupon Pradlield arose and struck Prower in the face, bringing the blood. The parties were separated quickly, or else the difficulty might have resulted seriously for Power. After Prower had finished, he and his crowd of negroes dispersed, after which Mr. Pradlield made a short speech, in which he clearly exposed Prowcr's corruption and hypocrisy. Capt. Williams was sick and unable to speak. Prower refused to divide time with any Democrat either here or at Wentwortii. Upon the refusal to divide time here all the white men left the hall in a body tonight. Smith's I'ortl Iiouih. V C. Gadu has bought him a, line trotter.

G're 'nsboro Patriot : A couple of gentle nen from the Pennslvania Oil Fields were nerc this morning, and examined a sample of the oil from the Phauix oil well at the oflice of Mr. J. W. Scott. Both gentlemen pronounced it to be the same kind of oil obtained from the wells of Pennsylvania, and expressed it as their opinion that oil could be found in paying qualities in this section. Women as Journalist. A woman can generally succeed at anything she undertakes to do, and if she makes up her mind that she will be a "rewspaper man" she will read her title clear to the profession of journalism, and make a better ed itor than the most of men. Several women have tried their hands at newspaper work in Xorth Carolina, and all of them have demonstrated their abilit" in that direction. A woman' edits the Orphan's Friend, and makes it a capital paper. A woman is now employed on the State Chronicle, and one has been doing some excellent work on the Wil mington Messenger. The Charlotte Chronicle has, un:il quite recently, had a woman on its staff, and her work was well done. The editor of the Durham Sun, who has theability to get up one of the best papers in thoState bv himself, is assisted by his better half, and the Sun shines so brightly that no clouds can ob scure its rays. Tiie editor or one o. Hip best, weeklies in the State some time ago decided that his work was too hcavv for him. ana that he would b:ivc t(rscctire :i nartncR He did n.-h find :i. man to suit him at once, and, in the meantime, his good' wife decided to assist him in his editorial labors until the desired partner could be found. Becentlv business called him awav from home for a week, nnd bis wife took entire charge of ih.' 11:: in r. When the editor return ed he was astonished to find that his wife had irotton up the best issue that bad been sent out in six months, Ho has now de ided that she is the only partner he wants. Women are either adapted to jour nalism, or journalism is adapted to them, we don't know which. Any- - !v tbpv rrn well too-etbev. and most n ,. n......7 newspaners could be improved by the addition of feminine taste and feminine ability. The Becristcr, for one, will cordiallv welcome other crood women to the "brotherhood" in Xorth Carolina. Monroe Begtster. CONCORD MARKETS. COTTON MARKET. (Corrected daily ly Cannons iv Feter.
