The province of Manitoba Has been blessed this season with the best crop of wheat in its history. The farmers have been thereby made happy. The threshing has bqfen industriously carried on, and EeVereat plains have for weeks re sounded to the hum ol thn ma chines. Occasional enow storms have stopped threshing for a few days, but the great body of the grain has been threshed and is ready for market. While the Northwest has been congratulating itself on its good crops and prospects for future good times, an unexpected enemy has ap peared in the land, brought dismay to the people, and spread destruos tlon before it. Prairie fires have been ranging over western counties during the present week, with dis aatrous results The country be tween 'Winnipeg and Portage la PraArie the finest wheat section in "Canada has been a severe sufferer by the devounig element. Many forms have lost their entire crop .of wheat and hay. Others have not only lost their crops" but also their buildings and fences. Some have lost their cauie and stock as well ab their houses and grain. In addition to losing their all a number of farina ers have been severely burned, and suffered physical torture as well as financial 'loss. Three have died from bu: n and others are seriously afflicted. Ten thousand dollars worth of wheat and hay has been burned into ashes, and many homes blotted f. o ji the lace of the eartb The question of prairie fires .has therefore assumed serious propor tions in the Northwest No farm cm be coiibidered safe and every prairie farm house is menaced with flames. It is now the most impors .tant question before the Cunai & 'Peopje; before it immigration and aTTelopment of resources are msig nifloant. The protection of those already in the country, and the safety of resources already devel oped, are of paramount consequence. Prouiuciul legislation and effective and sufficient legislation are needed. If means for the suppression of prairie fires and proper penalties for originating fires are not provided by the government, the province will lose heavily by the neglect, and be retarded in its future development. So far the farmers have bad 'jlo fight their own battle, and contend with the raging flames with their own forces. While for days past, when the western prairies have prec sented an auroral picture of fire, and great lakes of flames and bil Iovb of smoke have rolled up from the burning grain stacks, I have not heard of the provincial or municipal governments of the province doing' anything to assist the farmeiB to suppress their devouring enemy. To save my life, I can't see any reason why the mounted police and the municipal fire companies have not been sent to assist the farmers in suppressing the fires, or why re lief companies have not been orga nized in the towns and sent to the ravaged districts to help to get the fires under control, and save prop erty from destruction. If the Til lages were visited by conflagrations and threatened with devastation. I believe every Manitoba farmer would lend a hand to help the vil lagers suppress the fires and save their property, ihe farmers Keep up the towns, and the vulagirs should assist the farmers in their dire struggle with their burning foes The government at least should take a hand and give some organized aid for the suppression of prairie fir s add the rescue of crops, houses, tattle, ttock and people from destruction. Sh riffs Lave powers to assemble posses to put down riots they should fclso have powers to collect a posse at the county's expense and put down prairie fires. A raging fire should be regarded as a riot, and sup pressed by the government as a public etemy. Severe penalties should be provided and rigorously enforced against all parties regard less of who they are for originat" ing fires, either through neglect or want of caution. Farmers have rights, and they should aee that the r rights are respected. If they have not adequate laws to have such respected and enforced, they should make the laws required. Winnipeg, Oct. 19 J.

Enchanting were the strains or Mendelsbon's wedding march as ren dered by Prof. 11 L Keesler at tin First Presbyterian church last (Wednesday) evening at 6:30 o'clock when two lives were wedded in a beautiful ceremony pronounced by the pastor, Rev. W 0 Alexander, The bride was Mary, the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joel Reed, of this city, and the groom was Dr Eli J Buohanan, a prominent young Dhvsician of Lexington. The church was handsomely decorated A pyramid of palms and white cry- santhemums failed the alcove and a pillar of eyergreens interwoyen with grasses stood at either side of the rostrum. In each aisle was an arch, npon which swung the gates, and suspended from the top of the left one nnder which the 'bride passed for the last time as a miss, was the letter "R," and from the arch in the right aisle in a similar style was the letter "B." The trim ming colors and lamp decorations were white and bine. At the first sound of the notes to the famous march, in walked little Lizzie Montgomery and Jem kin Reed, who opened the "beautiful gates" that the attendants might pass beyond, followed by the flower children, little Margaret Lentz and Fred Bost, who pro ceeded to . the altar' and took their places on either side of Key. Alexander ; they were followed by tha caudle bearers, little Addie Lore and Dermont Shemwell, who ars rauged themselves opposite one an other on the rostrum, and for a mo- raent these little folks presented a most fairy-like scene with their sweet, flushed cheeKs, flowing hair, flowers and paie illuminations. Tnen cam: the ushers, Messrs. J C Mc- Neely, of Cnarlotte, Ed. F White, Joe Goodman and John F Yorke, standing at the lower end of either aisle, followed by the bridesmaids and groomsmen, passing down the aisles singly and crossing in the front of the altar in the following manner : Misses Sallie Erwin, Lilli Springs, Messrs.

Majestically and alone came the maid of honor, Miss Alice Shem well, preceedmg the bride down the left aisle, attired in an elegant cream silk dress, chiffon lace aud rhinestones, who stood to the left of the loely bride. KtcliiiiDg on the arm of I brother-in-law, Dr. L M Arehey, the bride was escorted to the front of the altar, where she was met by the groom, who was accompanied by his brother, Mr. E Grant Buchanan, when the two engaged their arms and mounted the altar where the throth was plighted that made them "man and wife," during which' pro oeeding Prof. Keesler played melo dious strains of the "Sweetest S.orv Ever Told," which made the Bolemu oceasiou one of tfftrct. The bride's costume was abecom ing gown ot white satin, loug train, pearls and ribbons, carrying in hr left hand a dainty buqout of the eyer-fiagrant orange bkaaouis. This brilliant event was con cluded at the home of the bride's parents, on Main street, immediately after the ceremony at the church, where the bride and groom received congratulations underneath au arch of evergreens and pure white "christian anthems." An elegant supper was served. The bride was recipient of many- handsome and costly presents. Dr. and Mrs. Buchanan left last night on the vestibule train for Washington city, to spend a few days, and before returning to their future home m Lexington, they will go to the Atlanta Exposition.

Word reaches hereof an assault upon a white woman by a negro rnffhn, but fortunately, with the oppose of the usual result Early this morning Mrs. Jacob Mauntford, the wife of a well tondo young farmer, liying in this county near the Pennsylvania line, was at home alone, except for the company of her 3 -year-old baby. While working in the kitchen Bob Black- well, a negro farm laborer, living in the neighborhood, came to the door, doffed his hat and asked for the loan of a hoe, saying his employer want ed it His purpose evidently was to get Mrs. Mountford to go to the barn after the tool, but she did not like the idea and told him to come back later, or go and get it himself Blackweil then made known his pur. pose and seized Mrs Mountford. As he came at her she picked up a sharp butcher knife, which was ly ing near, and began slashing and cutting her assailant So valiant was Mr 8. Mouniford's defense of her honor that she finally drove the black brute away, with the blood streaming from a dozen wounds and his clothes cut to stupes. Mrs Mountford ran to the nearest neigh bor, a mile away, and gaye the alarm and a party of farmers Btarted in persuit of Blackweil, but he had gotten oyer the Pennsylvania line and could not be found. bar Metboulst Preachers: The annual conference of the Methodist church soon meets in Reidsville, K.

What pure and innoctnt faith there is m the minds of some children, was demonstrated Wednesday afternoon when some older person told a little six year old child "that if she did not get out of the wind she would be blown awtfj." She haB evidently been taught to obey older ones than herself, and believing her informant sincert, she stopped at a neighbor's house and got a lady friend to see htr safely home, fearing that she would U, hoisted and carried away, never again to see her beloved parents and fond ones at home. Her appeals for company were tocehiu?, and her lady fri3nd willingly complied with the little girl's entreaties.

Tuesday night a slick trick was worked upon the Campers in Can nons & Fetzer's back lot by a negro of the city. It was very cold and the negro appeared with a flask of brandy. He insisted on several of them to t tste it, telling them if they liked it he could get them some more. Fifty cents was given the negro, who started for the spirits, but the man with the mot.ey nor the brandy never returned. The matter was reported too late to catch him this time, but it is likely that he will yet be trapped. Shooting Sear att. Pleasant. On Thursday afternoon Mr. W M Barrier, who lives near Mt.

Ceaeerd Baa Slayer, Some few weeks since Clerk of Court Gibson appointed Mr. L M Morrison, the present mayor of Con cord, public administrator. He has been qualified, has given a bond of $8,000 and has been regularly in ducted into office and is bow per forming the functions of said office. Sec. 1389 of Chapter 33 of the code (vol. 1) says : "There may be a public adminis trator in every county, appointed by the clerk of the supreme court for the term of eight years." Sec. 1300 of said chapter says "The public administrator shall en ter into bond, with three or more sureties, approved by the clerk, in the penal sum of $8,000, payable to the State of N. C, conditioned faiths inlly to perform the duties of his office and obey all lawful orders' &c Sec. 1395 of said chapter says: "On the expiration of the term of office of a public administrator of his resignation, he may continue to manage the several estates corns mitted to him prior thereto until he shall have fully admin-'stered the same," &o. Article 14 section 7 of the con stitution of North Carolina says: "No .person, who shall hold any office or place of trust or profit un der the TJ. S., or any department thereof, or nnder this State, or un der and this State, or nnder any other state or goyernment, shall hold or exercise any other office or place of trust or profit under the authority of this State, or be eligible te a seat in either House of the Gen eral Assembly ; Proyided, that noth ing herein contained shall extend to officers in the militia, Justices ot the Peace, &c." Therefore we have an officer hold ing two places of trust and profit which is in direst opposition to our constitution, and by law thejpenalty for holding two offices is the for feiture of the first office, therefore we have no mayor in Concord. The supreme court recently de. eided similar cases to this as to di rectors of State Institutions. Ad attorney here gives it as hia opinion that this law is good. What are we going to do about it ?
