Such foolhard in. s is equalel only by arepub limn Presidential inauguration. Th' Arizona Senate has pass r a 1111 which provides that !h Lrgislature shall meet but niiir in ten years. This doesn't trik the House so favorably, but if is thought it will com promise on liye years. Arizona is profiting by North Carolina disgraceful examine. A Kansas man was defeated for mayor of his town by the won? en because he married a di vnired woman the day after proposing and being accepted ly one of the belles of the town. That's the right way to assert woman's rights and was right. The dispatches report that x President Cleveland spent Iris l ist Sunday in Princecon very quietly, and even attended rlmrrh.

It has long ,f!i feared that some -such 111 tact, in 18G1 the city and some counties wanted to secede and become neutral, we have beard. It will perhaps succeed this time. If so New York will then have less than 3,000,000 people, while the new State will have nearly 4,000,000, with an area less than Connecticut, but not so small as Delaware. While we regret to see the State institutions going out of democratic supervision, andean not rejoice that Dr. Alexander of Tyrrell has been elected Su perintendent of the (ioldsboro asylum for colored people, ve have no hesitancy in saying that vte are glad Dr. Miller has been ousted. The Dr. made a good superintendent, perhaps, but this writer has had personal evidence that he was sadly lack ing in common courtesy in his official capacity. Let him go. If Judge Robinson will sus tain his record in attempting to dispatch business during the coming court, he will be thank ed by the people of Pitt coun ty. When things go slow, push them up. If he will limit the speeches of the lawyers and the time for examining witnesses, much more business will be dis patched. The initial number of the Lin coin Journal has been received. Bro. Tipton is no novice in jour nalism, and his new paper shows experience and ability. It is a bright, newsy sheet, and we wish for it the success it merits. Harry Skinner has introduced another fool bill in Congress. It may catch the ignorant, but its worthlessness is too apparent to even fool them long. BREVITIES An army of tramps invaded Rich mond, Va., recently the raggedest, most desperate brigade that ever struck a city. They made the door bells jingle from street to street, demandiug clothing, shoes and food They were muddy, ragged and dirty. Front poich?s were tracked with mnd, and front cates were left open. The facts were reported to the chief of police and lie at once sent out a detachment of police, who finally succeeded in chasing ticm out cf town.
