' Mr. Butler said in his speech at Newton .turday that he "out speaking- at this time, to .warn the peo ple of the mp Yement ,pf the politi cians." Is that not refreshing? It has been many a day since we .haveTun upon so cool a piece of self assurance. If folks in this neck of ; the woods were asked to point out a politician in this State, nine .out of .ten would extend their index fingers Butlerward. How else does Mr. Butler account ;for .his being in the United States Senate? Were his qualifications for that exalted place so manifest that an unanimous outburst of popular acclaim ".simply l- hove him innto it? Well hardly. Mr. Butler should not despise the ladder by. which he. climbed. It is not good taste to deny the calling' by which one's bread is earned. He be came vSenatpr, by. a piece of shrewd po litical scheming just as most other men do in. the South, where they are We do not in the least blame Mr. .But ler either for the scheming or being elected. On the contrary we .have al Wjays thought it .rather neatly done; Dut wnen ne attempts to pose as a x guileless patriot; to be "like a star and dwell apart;" to constitute himself the unselfish guardian of the "poor people;" he becomes the least bit ridi culous. The Senator started out with. a great flourish of his tongue to outline the policy of his party, but, so far as, we can - gather, the only, policy yet pro pounded -is in the sentence where he says 'he will be found in the middle of the road appealing to the people to follow him; '"which, being interpreted is, the Senator will continue to do business at the old stand. He has al ways evinced more or less fondness for having the people follow, him; it is second only to his fondness for. ap pealing to them to do so; the latter is a passion, a mania with him. The Senator simply has a bad case of "stage-struck" and has mistaken iMor the spirit of patriotism moving might ily within him. He should diagnose his ailment more .carefully. .He -is likely to find, when he goes a starring in the middle of the road, that a de lighted public will not cast at his. feet a big bouquet labelled "second term." North Carolina will want men to represent her in future who stand on something more than the middle of the road; something a little more, specific. Glittering generalities and promises impossible of performance witThave very much less weight in the late, than they had in the early nineties. More over the middle ,of the road is not in very good repute just now. It would be well for the Senator , to sorter edge off toward one side, out of the August sun, and cease calling for awhile. When wheat is striving to get between the dollar mark and the dot is not an auspicious time for catiing .anyway. Instead of enthusiastic cheers he might be rewarded with a big, chilly horse laugh. It is whispered that Mr, Hanna worked some of that surplus "provi dence' ' on the Ohio Populists . Marcus is nothing if not an inftatpr , of : booms . The love of his profession Is so strong that he gave even Coxey a boost. i r THE Andree.expedition has started a great number of balloon hoaxes; . The latest is the man who will take provisions t JClondyke and bring back dust by means of one. We presume it would be proper, in the slang of the day, to say that balloons "are in the air." . It was very-.8,hor-sighted in Mr. Dingley not to have put a clause in .his tariff bill imposing a duty on' JQondyke gold. We should not allow so much' Of a British product to come in free -it will damage .our infant mining. industries. . A jOOQD JOKE. But Mr. Enqis Was Equal to ,the Eqierjjency. . Mr. P. C. Enniss, of Raleigh, an old newspaper man, -by the way, is located injGreensboro and i.s working in the interest of the A. and M. College at Raleigh. ; He was down in Randolph county, near Asheboro, one day last week and learning that two prominent gentle-, .men.wpuhi address the. voters at Ashe boro on the local tax question, conclu--ded.he wpujd .go oyer and ;bear them. .When .he reached Asheboro he found the speakers had not arrived. Quite.a4crpwd was presentjand a freeholder-thought he .recognized one of the speakers in the person Qf Mr. ,En nis.s. 'Pink" knows how to appreciate a joke, and .whep he .was asked to ad dress the waiting crowd ;he consented to. do so, with the understanding that he be allowed, to choose his subject. Mr. Enniss says the opportunity was too good to let slip, so he improved the time by talking A. and M. College to the crowd for a whole hour. We have not learned with, .what en thusiasm the address was received. We understand that Mr. Enniss tried the same game .at Randleman. In a Deplorable Condition. There was one man in Greensboro who was not in a satisfactory frame o mind for worship yesterday, and it came about on account of a little thieving, of which so much has been done in and around Greensboro re cently. R. W. Filator, who boards at the Monroe House, on Buchanan street, went to his room late Saturday night to take a bath. When he went to the wardrobe in search of clean linen, he was surprised to find npne. He knew that all the underwear he had was left in the wardrobe. After searching con siderably ana finding none, he came up street and bought a supply for Sun day,. swearing vengeance on the thief who had visited his apartments. It's tough on a fellow to lose any thfng at the hands of a thief, but when it comes to stealing a man's wearing apparel well, it puts an awkward feeling on a person, to say the least His Hands Full. m Rev. .Horace Weeks Jones, the pop ular rector, of St. Barnabas Episcopal church, had as much as one man could well attend to yesterday. At 8 o'clock in the. morning he administered holy communion at St. Andrew's church, and at 10 o'clock he preached and ad ministered holy communion -at St Barnabas. He went to Burlington on the noon train, where he preached in St Athenasius Episcopal church last evening. Good Work. Sam Browne, superintendent of the street force, in addition to the other good wprk he has done, has recently made a great improvement on Gorrell street. '. The street has been cut down, graded I and otherwise improved. Gprrell promises to become one of the most desirable residence streets in the city ' j Nearlng Completion. The new front to the store of the Greensboro Hardware Company is nearing completion. Contractor Smith has finished the brick work. When completed it will be an ornament to the main street of our city. To Our City Subscribers.
