In casually looking oyer the papers
we notice that there was a resolns
tlon introduced on the Conference
iloor at Winston favoring a refor
matory for youthful criminals. We
have had something to say on. this
line before, and we honestly think
it a matter that the present Leg
islature should look into. That the
Stale needs one is foregone con
clusion. Young criminals should
not be classed with the hardened
reprobates. A reformatory would
act on the principle that "an ounce
of prevention is worth a pound of
cure." Davidson Dispatch.
This is what The Standard has
been preaching all the while.
Senater Vance says "the horse
that does the ploughing ought tc
have the fodder." This 13 a homely
metophor illustrating the great truth
that he who has borne the heat and
burden of the day should have the
reward of his labor.
Mrs. Lease thinks the office should
seek the woman as well as the man.
We sincerely hope in this case the
office won't come around.
It is stated that the Legislature
will do what the solicitors and grand
juries haye thus far failed to do
that is, investigate the "Gideon's
Band" business.
Elias Carr led the State ticket for

It is estimated at the Treasury
Department that it will take 9,775,

produced this year.
Governor Holt, Jule S Carr and
ex-LieutenantGovernor Steadmau
are spoken of for a cabinet position.
It looks as if the Tar Heel State
would be in it.
Tom Watson, the defeated hero of
the famous tenth district of Georgia,
is up in Washington City fighting
mad, as the following showeth : "My
district was gerrymandered for the
purpose of keeping me out, but I
carried every one of my old counties
even by Democratic returns. I could
make out a clear case, but it 13
doubtful If I could get a fair jury."
Representative Chapman, of Mich
igan, presented to the House a bill

Tobacco is not good for a cow to
chew. This is evidenced by the fact
that D F Pamsh, of Chatham
county, who lost a fine cow from this
cause. She was noticed standing
with her head and fore feet in one

found dead, not far away, having
vomited the tobacco before she died.

It is said that Mme. Diaz, wife of
the President of Mexico, is friendly
to this country, but she doesn't
give proof of it by sending a brass
band of forty-five Mexican woman to
the World's Fair, as she intends do
ing. There are brass bands enough
in this country now.
One of the reasons why there are
not more than four or five thousand
aspirants to Cabinet positions in
this country, is because the salaries
of Cabinet officers are only $8,000 a
year, when it costs them $12,000 or
more to keep up style.
Although Jay Gould couldn't

The Tablet) Turn.
It used to be that when Salisbury
people wanted to see a show they
had to come to Chailotte; but the
tables are turned its just the
other way now. When Charlotte

Confusion on the Silver Question In

London, Dec. 7, Under fear of a
suspension by the American govern
ment of the Sherman act and a sud
den change in the financial policy of
British India, forward business in
the silver market here has virtually
ceased. The dealings are confined
to fpot silver. Leading Eastern
bankers do not believe that any pre

either America or India, but they
are fortifying themselves against
surprise.
The Financial News suggests that
a compromise on the silver question
in the United States will take the
form of a return to the Bland act
The silver markes is so unsettled that
dealers refuse to give quotations. All

a number of Democratic politicians.
When asked about the trouble be

he said : "Since my return from
Washington I have been too unwell
to give it any consideration, I was
not out of the house yesterday and
came down town today against the

A flea can jump straight upwards

The election took place on the 8th
of Novmber and the State canvasss

four counties the officers of which

could be fined and put to jail. A
pretty tangle we would have had of
it if this had been a close election.

of as a slow set of Chaistains but it

first to originate a State organ in
the Biblical Recorder, the first to
send out a foreign missionary, Dr.

church orphanage at Thomasville,
and they constitute by many thous

Agricultural Hints.
A farm without a tool-house is
like pants without pockets.
Make the farm a home the
pleasantest place in the world.
Best breeds do not insure most
profit without proper treatment.
Anowleure wa3 never before so
cheap and easy to get as now.
Dependence on a single crop may
prove a disappointment.
No one yet knows the capacity of
soil or how to best treat it.
When his stock is not improving,
the farmer is falling behind.
Be punctual and save your
time as well as that of others.

Trust to tested breeds : let other3
experiment with the untried.
Skimmed milk and flaxseed grut
mixed make good calf feed.
A judicious combination pays
better than trusting to oue thing.

The House Takes the Initiative iii the
Dinicult Problem.
The House committee on appro
priations has taken the initiative in
the difficulty financial problem that
confronts it, by calling on the Sec
retary of the Treasury for all esti
mates of probable deficiencies under
the government, so that the corns
mittee may be able to ascertain the
true condition of the Treasury and
be guided accordingly in making its
appropriations for the coming fiscal
year. These estimates are also de
sired that the committee may begin
at once the preparation of its urgent
deficiency bill and it is probable
that the bill will be submitted to

dermen passed a rigid ordinance for

Tosday R J Reynolds tested the
legality of the ordinance in that it
forbade him repairing a large tobacco
warehouse. The case came up before
Judge Mclver, who decided the ordi
nance void on the ground that it
gave the alderman too much au
thority. The city took an appeal to
the Supreme Court.

last to leave the Seal Islands, mierht
be expected here to-morrow. The
Bear made four visits to Port Clar
ence, Alaska, and landed 175 rein
deer from northeast Siberia. Only
three animals died on the way.
Four Siberian keepers were left in
charge of the herd. The Bear also
visited the cave dwellers on King Is-
land, whom Capt. Healey saved
from starvation two years ago. It
was found that the seals had re
turned there, so they had plenty of
food, but Capt. Healey left a supo
ply.
