Mr. Charles Rippy, a very worthy and industrious young man attempted to cross the" dam at Holf s factory on Haw river, in a canoe. While near midway of the stream he discovered that the current wa3 bearing the boat swiftly towards the falls of the dam in spite of his utmost exertions to stop ,it In this emergency he leaped in'o the water with the intention of swimming across. He struggled toanfully, but the current bore him down and he was washed over the dam and drown ed. ' At latest accounts the body had not been found although a diligent search has been made. Mr. Rippey was about 18 years of - age, and very popular among his associates. The calamity is deeply deplored. Visitor. Why Oppose Whisky ? As a Christian minister I oppose drink because it opposes me. The work I try to do it .undoes. My charge against it is single and simple . It is an obstacle to the spread of the gospeL Nay, it is an enemy which assails the gospel, and whose com plete success would drive the gospel from earth. There is not a sinner on the face of the earth so unlikely to vbe savingly affected by the influ ence of the gospel as the habitual drunkard. The ealvation of a thor ough drunkard - is one of. the mightiest miracles of almighty grace. Bishop Fossj D. D. Not Dying Very Fast. -. The Chicago Herald, after a careful review of the whole situation shown upin the election, remarks: 'In evairv one of these Slates the Democratic and Kepublican votej fell off and the Prohibitionists alone . exhibited any - increase of strength. In tfie presence of these figures it will not be possible for Eepblicaris to assert " that the movement is dying out, nor can any Democrat delude hemself any longer with the idea "that his party I notlose by the temperonce demonstra tion.If 11 of thes vote had, come from .the Republican partythe Democrats would have ' carried every one t)f the States Above mentioned jby.4age plu ralities It may,indeed, be suggested with aretsonable basis of, probability that in some instances the bulk of this Tiftw- Prohibition vote has been drawn from the Democratic party. " For example, the Democrats earned Indiana in 1884 by a plurality of, 700. That year the Prohibition vote was 3,028.- This fall, with a Prohibition vote of 18,911, the l?TTirilifan8 have carried the State by a plubrality of 2,000 In the : o'her : State the . incres prl Prfthibit on vote must have come in about equal numbers from both o the old parties, because the plurailites remain relatively the same as they were two year ago. A corresponding increase in the Prohibition vote in the next nation ai : campaign would less than 500,000 votes. With that showing Proh ibition wouid begin to attract the atent'on that its sup porters demand." E. M. Caldcuie & BroV is" the place to buyXmas goods.

The election is over and i he vote counted and; announced to the pub i and wm e the results are not as favorable to us as we desire !,a d had hoped at one time to obtain, yat there is much in the fac of the returns to encourage the Prohibitiont to . . . . i press on in their fight' a .rains' the salooni .j We confidently belivt that the principles orou' cause are growing deeper into the hearts and conscience of the people,' and that the canvass and di-cussion of the -Subject before the masses e ch year are productive of good to the cause, and will finally result in a triumph of .our principle so dear to patriotic citizenship and to a loyal manhood. We made the contest under adverse circumstances ard with difficulties i" our wa . We Wire all unused t the hustings, and entire strangers to campaign life, and hence may have made mistakes in pur line of action. It is our deliberate conclusion that the canvass was sincere, faithful, and stri tly honest on , the part of the prohibitionist, and that while it was a personal sacrifice to each of the pro hibit onisknomineefc to make the tour of the cjounty, each man made it his constant aim to buUd up our cause and to advance the principles with their fe low-countrymen. We came before you not in the in terest of self, not asking your support as a means with winch to promote our own personal advantage, but we came to represent, and in our humble way, to advocate principles of more impor tance and of more concern to us than tne elevation ana election oi any man or any party. It is for you to say whether resultg are satisfactory or not,it is your vote,it is your verdict. We are proud to believe that the prohibition party of Randolph has come to stay, and that others, many others; are ready to join this progress xve little army of men who have the Courage of conviction. . In looking over the tabulated vote of the late election and making comparisons with the results of two years ago we see that our growth is healthy and the prospects for subsequent-action are cheering and en couraging. We find in comparing the total vote of the two years the following; The general total loss in county about - - 6 per crn. Democratic - - 4" " ! Republican - - 13" Prohibition gai, - 23" Thus we see tbe vote indicates a live issue and a growing issue and we indulge the belief that the future will produce results m ore gratifying than the past. We must organize at once for subsequent action. We have learned from the mistakes of the past Thanking our fellow-citizens f.r lheir favors and vote and express'ng a hope that we may get in readiness all along the line lor z year nence. we are your frend and fellow citizen.
