Democracy has done its nominat ing work in the county. That work is the majority work. The character of the work is such as to command the approval of every voter. None need feel ashamed to vote that ticket It represents ability, character, efficiency and honesty, The people and the democratic party are to be congratulated over the happy result f the convention. It is needless to say right here that every man on the ticket will be elected by a handsome majority. Cabarrus county is a Democratic county and it is the height of folly for the adversaries, running on empty dreams, moonsshine and tomfoolery, to hope to change the complexion of Cabarrus conntv it is Democratic in real, down right earnestness.

I September 10. Link pted desperado of North d eastern Texas, was to deat in his cell in the par ish jail by a mob last night at 1 o'clock. . Wagoner was a perfect type of manly beauty and as brave as a lion. For the past five years he had been a terror in that country. Innumer able murders are laid at his door and his robberies were most daring. He was captured about a year ago at Nacogdoches, Tex., and bronght to Homer, in Claiborne county, and and tried on a charge of murder. The case was not proven against him and he was sent to the jail here foa safe keeping to await trial on other charges against him. While at Homer an attempt was made by a mob to kill him bnt sin. gle handed having in some unac countable way obtained possession of a pistol he kept the whole mob at bay until assistance arrived. Last night the jail hers was Jbroken into by a mob of seyenty-five men who shot him dead in his cell, and then dispersed. Wagoner has three brothers in Nacogdoches, and it is believed that they will maKe an at tempt to avenge his death. The desperado had a good many friends in this section of the country and may also join in a feud which would be a bloody one from the outset. Football at Trinity College. One ef the important questions to be decided upon was whether the students should be allowed to play football. The faculty laid the mats ter before the executive committee of the college, calling attention to the fact that the rules had been greatlj improved, eliminating from the game all brutality, The ex ecutive committee decided that, un der certain improved regulations and management, the game might be allowed. No match games are to be played outside the State; only two days to be taken from their regular work; none but playeis are to leave the park to engage in a game, and a member sf the faculty must accompany those who go away. This action is regarded as a com. promise, which the students cheer fully accept. Ic is further under stood as not in any way defying the conferences, which condemned it last year, but is to be in effect until the conferences meet. If the game has been so modified as to eliminate all brutality, and if the students are not allowed to go on tours out of the State, and if they lose no time, and when they go, go under the care of a member of the faculty, we see no more evil to come of it than from any other athletic game which might be expected from col lege' students. Christian Advocate. Hlrani Bout Owna a Town. The pretty little town of Locust Level, in Stanly county, will prob ably be swept away some of these days, and fine crops of wheat and corn will grow on the streets. When the town was first started, the real estate owners went to Mr. Hiram Bost, a wealthy farmer of Cabarrus, and mortgaged their prop erty for enough capital to put up the improvements. Now the hard times have come and "old man Hi' has the nippers on them. When asked recently what he intended to do with his town he said he would "plow it up." The property is now worth perhaps forty times as much as he gave for the mortgage on it. Charlotte News. Reduced Railroad Rnteit. Sovereign Grand lodge of Odd Fellows, Chattanooga, Tenn.

He is the man who has supplied the drinking population of Stanly, Cabarrus and Union counties with the fiery fluid for lo! these many years.

A Bristol, Tenn., special; to the Dis patch says; , Charles Rector, and boy named Morris, in exploring a cave near Seven Mile Ford, Va., three miles east of this place yesterday discover ed two skeletons, 40 feet below the surface. The cave had long been known, but no one had ever entered to explore it because of its great depth. The Morris boy was let down by a rope. When the find was reported, a party of citizens went to the cave to investigate further. In all ten skeletons were taken out, and were adjudged to be the bones ot men. One skeleton was found in a sitting position with the skull reclining on the arms, which were folded across the knees. Thus far there is but one way to account for the charnel house. Old citizens say that many years ago there was an inn kept near this cave by a man named Allen and that occasionally people who stopped there and mys teriously disappeared were never again heard of. The supposition is that they were kilkil iu this inn, robbed of their valuables aDd then consigned to the cape. Some of the skeletons discovered were partially buried under stones and many of the bones were broken. To His KeMt-nc. Washington, D. C, Sept. 11.

To an interviewer, Mr. Inman said that the South is nnques tionably on the eve ol an era of great development and prosperity. Speaking of the reorganiza tion of the Richmond Terminal pioperties, Mr. Inman said that the Vanderbilts and Rothschilds have no interest whateyer in the re organiza tion. Drexel, Morgan & Com pany are managing that with their own resources. Mr Inman stated that he knows that the Southern Railway Company will get control of the Cincinnati Southern Railway. This will give the ,. Southern a line from Cincinnati to New Orleans.
