One of t lie Lest publications of its rl.iss is tlic Soutiiern States magazine, ji'il'lislicd ly the Manufacturers' Kccord Company, Riltimore, Md. Tlie M.iy n'imber just to hand is chiefly fkvo'tfl to Nortli Carolina and in it we find many interesting, valuable and instructive articles relative to the industries and natural resources of the State, its topography, etc. A glance at the table of contents shows that Gov. F.lias Cur writes about the State in genera!, summarizing its resources and the present state of material development. Dr. II. 1!. liattle, director ol ti e North Carolina Experi ment Station, contributes an exhaus tive article on the climate of North Carolina, with several striking illustra tions representing characteristic cli matic conditions. The State geologist, Prof. J. A. Holmes, wii es about the mineral resources of the State, giving nv.a h interesting information about the economic geology. President Ccorge T. Winsto:,, d the University of North Carol ii.i, contributes an article on educati .n in North Carolina, dealing with the influences that have been largely instrumental in bringing North Carolina to its present position of eminence among the Southern States. W. V. Ashe, of the North Carolina deological Survey, contri butes a brief paper on the forest resources uf the State. 1 1. K. Harman, editor of the Sou them Tobacco Jour nal, is the writer of an interesting article on tobacco culture in North Carolina, which is illustrated with several characteristic views in tobacco fields and factories. This issue of the magazine also contains a beautifully illustrated article entitled "In the Louisiana Sugar Ik-It," which treats in a very interesting manner the great sugar industry of Louisiana. The Southern States magazine is develop ing rapidly into a popular Southern monthly and shows much literary and artistic merit. The current issue appears with a handsome new cover design and the articles are profusely illustrated with a high class of enrav ings. It is published by the Manu facturers' Record Publishing Company of Riltimore, Md., at 1.50 per years. I r seems from the telegraphic reports of the storm which passed through a portion of this county, on Wednesday of last week, the cyclone formed at some point in Georgia. Hut little damage was done in this State until it struck Moore county, in some parts of which houses, fences, orchards, and large trees were blown down in its deadly wake. No lives have been reported lost in Moore, but several head of stock were killed and a few persons slightly injured. A woman at Lindon on the Aberdeen & West End railroad had her arm broken. Mr. A. Haicheit, of Henderson, in his correspondence to the Rich mond JJisfatch, says : Some of the State papers are already publishing and pushing the claims of gentlemen who want to '-fill Senator Ransom's place." If the sentiment in this section is a criterion it will be agreed the State has several gentlemen who would honor the position, but it will not be admitted that anybody in or out of North Carolina can " fill the place" of our veteran cavalier Southern statesman. There is but one Matt. Ransom in the United States, and the Tarheel State will stick by him just so long as he is willing to serve it.

Doulware, president of the First National bank of Richmond, is quoted as saying: " The politicians seem to me to be misleading the peo ple in trying to make them believe that it is a fight between Wall street and the country people." Commenting on this, the Richmond Times says : Mr. IJouIware hit the nail exactly and squarely on the head when he said this: The free silver newspapers and politicians generally take this as the text of every address they make to the people. The burden of every song they sing is a conspiracy located in Wall street, New York, which aims at depriving the people of all money and leaving them all financial wrecks. This is true in one sense, but in the sense in which it is put out to the public, it is absolutely absurd and ridiculous. Undoubtedly every man trading in Wall street is looking out for himself, and he is trying to make the best bargain he can and to secure for him self every profit which any transaction promises. One man's profit is likely to be another man's loss, and, as all deaiers in Wall street are seeking to make profits for themselves, in that sense all dealers there may be said to be operating against all men elsewhere. Put in following this line of conduct we see no difference whatever between the motive that inspires the Wall street dealer and the motive that inspires any other dealer. This is a world in which every man in business is for himself, with a kindly admonition to the hindermost one to look out for the devil. The Times is partly right and partly wrong. Nothing can be plainer than the fact that the run on the treasury was a conspiracy of the money sharks of the country, confined princi pally to what is known as Wall street, to force the administration into a policy which would benefit them and at the same time injure the people generally. Their object, of course, was not primarily to harm the country, but rather, as the Times says, to look out for themselves, but it just so happens that the bad financial policy of the last administration had brought about a crisis in the financial world, the character of which was such that Wall street could be greatly benefited and the country at large seriously injured, could Wall street prevail upon or force the administration to pursue a certain policy. Wall street practically threatened the administration thus: "If you do not issue bonds we will lock up all the gold and force a panic." So it was to all intents and purposes a fight of the people represented by the administration against Wall street. Secretary Carlisle and President Cleve land preferred fight rather than surrender and, calling the people to their aid, routed Wall street and brought the money sharks to terms. We repeat once more : There will be no panic. -Danville Register. SENATOR MATT AV. RANSOM. In a recent issue of the Indianapolis (Indiana) Sentinel, the following brief but pointed allusion was made to Senator Ransom, and the high opinion therein expressed of him will be shared and appreciated by his many friends and admirers throughout North Caro lina. The Sentinel says : North Carolina will look a long time before she will find senatorial timber equal to that of which Senator Ransom is made. It doesn't grow in every neck of woods. In a recenl issue of the Roxboro Courier we find the following. North Carolina is sometimes accused of indifference towards her worthy sons, and this accusation has some justness in it. The fact is due to our failure to appreciate their merits while living. Hon. Matt W. Ransom has succeeded in an undertaking which should be lauded in every daily and weekly in the State. When Gen. W. R. Cox made it known that he would like to become Secretary of the Senate, already enough Senators had expressed themselves favorably to Col. Washing ton to secure his election. Ransom took charge of Cox's cause and never ceased to work until his election was made by the Senate unanimously. This was the work of one man, and we don't believe there is another Senator who could have done the same thing. When the friends of Dr. Eben Alexander desired to have him appointed minister to Greece, they placed the case in Ransom's hands, and Alexander was the first North Carolinian to receive an appointment. There is in Washington city to-day no man with more influence than Senator Ransom. During the twenty-two years, through which he has served his State so faithfully, he has done much for the furtherance of our interest and the security of our rights. Twice he has secured the appointments of North Carolinians to positions in the Senate, and there walks within its halls to-day no two courtlier men than Ransom and his friend, General Cox, whose election he has just secured. Long may he live and serve his people. A FITTING COMPLIMENT. Col. A. P. Andrews is one of the principal stand-bys and safe guards of North Carolina's large interests among the great railroad magnates of the country. He is a very quiet, unassum ing gentleman, but is very forcefuland potent in railroad matters, especially those pertaining to North Carolina. We have watched his railroad course for many years, and it is a great mis fortune to the interests of North Caro lina that he could not have more encouragement and substantial back ing from home in his railroad enter prises. We would now have more control in our railroad affairs. Still, we are doing exceedingly well much better than some other Southern States. We hope Col. Andrews will be spared long to continue the good work. He is the general agent in North Caro lina for the receivers of the Richmond & Danville railroad, with headquarters at his home place Raleigh.

Boyce's Correspondence! Pcreau, Administration BriLDi.vo, World's Fair Grounds, May 3rd. J A cloudy, raw day, but without rain, was so much better than the weather the past week gave reason to expect, that the great exposition can be said to have opened under favorable aus pices. A brighter day would have made a larger attendance, but every spectator is ready to make affidavit that the attendonce was sufficiently large for comfort. The opening was notable in many ways, not the least beiug that no other public occasion outside of Washington has ever brought the President, Vice President and all the cabinet, with a single exception, to participate. Add to this the Duke of Veragua, only eleven generations from the dis coverer of Chicago or America (which means the same thing to-day), and there is a combination worthy of oc curring once in 400 years. The Duke is accompanied by his brother, but as he attracts little or no attention, I have been wondering how many more gen erations distant he is from Columbus than the Duke. Put waiving abstruse questions, the fair has been opened on time and there now seems no reason why the exhibi tors should not go ahead with their work and in the course of a few weeks have their wares and inventions in readiness for the public. While the exhibits are already co lossal, they will be vastly increased when the remainder comes on the scene. THE EXHIBITION STARTED. Aside from the fainting of several women and children, and possibly in urging some in the crush among those who gathered to see and hear the Pres ident, opening day was not marred by disaster. It is not an easy matter to handle 150,000 to 175,000 people when all are trying to occupy the same posi tion. The brevity of the President's speech was commendable, and the comfort of the crowd would have in creased if llev. Milburn had divided his prayer into five sections, and omit ted about four and a half. It was three or four times as long as the President's address. Put the wheels go around and by some mistake it only threatened but did not absolutely rain. When Chicago has a first-class pleasant spring day there should be a special celebra tion of the event. Opening day might have been worse weatherwise. THE SIDE SHOWS. Midway Plaisance is part of the Park system of Chicago, beiug quite a wide strip of land just one mile long, connecting Washington and Jackson Parks. The plaisance is a portion of the Park grounds which your 50 cent ticket of admission entitles you to visit. You can enter the viaduct in front of the woman's building, or you take the Seventy-first street Wabash avenue cable car to the Washington Park en trance and, walking through the plai sance, enter Jackson Park through the viaduct already mentioned. Midway Plaisance is what the side show is to the circus, the extra "touch." There are forty different exhibits nearly all of which charge an admission. Two or three are free, but make up for that by having something attractive to sell. Nearly all charge 25 cents admission but a few are 50 cents, and from $10 to $12 is required to see all the sights in the plaisance. The collection of people from distant parts of the globe in their various cos tumes and style of living is a curiosity of itself. There are Turks, Egyptians, Arabs, Javanese from the Isle of Java, Chinamen, Ceylonese from the Island of Ceylon, Laplanders, residents of the Barbary States, Dahomeyites, Jap anese, Persians, Siamese, Mexicans, Indians, Zulus, Swiss, Corlans, Ger mans, Irish, English and Americans, each with some characteristic exhibit or show. The side shows, like the big exhibits, are still in a somewhat chaotic shape, but when the plaisance assumes a more definite form a little later I will take a walk with my readers among the vari ous and curious people here congre gated. THE MIXING EXHIBIT. The Liberty Pell is not the only at tractive feature of the Pennsylvania exhibit. The much criticised coal barons have sent from the Heading mines a model of an anthracite coal crusher which stands thirty feet high. The crusher is accompanied by minia ture engines and but for the dust the machines might do practical work in the Mines and Mining building where it is located. That state also contrib utes solid blocks of anthracite weigh ing eight and ten tons. The Pennsyl vania exhibit in the Mine and Mining building occupies 3,307 square feet. With the exception of Michigan, which occupies 3,308 feet, Pennsylvania ex ceeds any other state in the union or foreign country in the space occupied by her display in this department. CONDITION OF GROUNDS. Visitors who do not find the grouuds in apple pie order the first week of the exposition should not shoulder all the lilame on the management. The very nature of the work, the receiving of ex hibits on temporary railroad tracks and by trucks, precluded the clearing up of the grouuds until the last moment. In the last eight days prior to the open ing, seven were rainy and some regular down-pours.The exhibits are still pour ing in so that the tracks cannot be re moved and roads and walks put in per manent order. While some portions of the grounds are in good shape to-day, other parts are most impassable for the pedestrian and unless the weather changes this condition is not likely to improve for some time to come. Be tween the weather and tardy exhibitors the opening is not propitious. W. D. B. Arc You Going to the World's Fair? If you are. pro via Cincinnati and the Cincinnati, Hamilton, & Dayton Rail Toad.

DESTRUC- Damage Done in Oxford Our Correspondent Gives a Full Account of the Affair. The following communication was re ceived last Thursday, after the Gold Leaf had gone to press. We publish it now with this explanation to our cor respondent and the public as tothecause of its not appearing sooner: Uxkord, X. C, May 3rd, 1893. Editor Gold Leak: This afternoon a. most fearful cyclone struck Uxford and did great damage to prizehouses and dwellings, killing one person, a negro, who was working in the prizehouse be longing to T. X. Bunvell. Uthers were badly bruised, though not seriously hurt. It struck near the depot, taking a north easterly direction. The first house in town struck was the tobacco prizehouse occupied by Mr. Boykin, which was knocked complete! w flat. When he heard the house cracking he was on the third floor, and ran as far as the first floor, when it fell. He does not know exactly how he got out, but after it was all over he found a hole in the side of the house from which he supposed he must have made his escape, as it was the only pos sible way for him to have done so. The house nearest it was one occupied by Mr. Jean Currin, as a prizehouse, which was badly damaged, though not blown down. Mr. Curriu and his brother had a very narrow escape. These two houses had a cycloue policy for $2,000 each, and Mr. I?oykin had a similar policy on his to bacco for? 5,000. Skipping several houses it struck the Burwell prizehouse, occupied by. I. A. White, and completely demol ished it. Mr. White was on the third floor, with two little boys. Seeing it impossible to escape, lie showed a remarkable presence of mind and calm ness by taking the boys with him and lying down by a pile of tobacco and to bacco sticks. They escaped unhurt. There was no insurance on either the house or tobacco. It is a heavy loss both on Mr. I'urwell and on Mr. White. The rain has, and will, damage the to bacco very much, as it could not be re moved this afternoon. The " whirl" did no other serious damage until it had skipped two squares, when it struck the Lewis Smith prizehouse and the Hicks factory. These were badly wrecked, the latter containing some very valuable machinery, which was to have been ship ped to-morrow. It lies exposed now, and damaged otherwise. The dwellings of L. E. Wright and Z. W. Lyon were damaged also, the latter very much. It was the most fearful wind ever seen by the oldest inhabitants. At one time the whole heavens in the direction of the depot seemed filled with inky blackness, smoke, and flying timber. It seemed that the outer edge of the whirl struck several buildings, from some ripping off only a few shingles, while to others it did more serious damage. The Minor warehouse had its back blown in and a part of the front off, filling the sidewalk with the debris. In the roof sticks a piece of scantling as securely as if it had been mortised. With ail its seriousness, it was right amusing to see the number of small houses blown to the coal yard of S. W. Parker. He will advertise them in the next issueof the Ledger as " estrayed," and the owners may reclaim them upon identifying them. The probable damage will be about $20,000 with only $ 9,000 insurance. It is a very serious loss to these gentlemen, especially to Mr. White, who is the largest loser. Mr. J. It. Poller, the energetic insurance man of Oxford, induced several to take cyclone policies only a short time ago; and now those who did think it the best investment they ever made. A good many similar policies have been written up this afternoon. Tonight we are in darkness, the electric wires having been blown down. Just before the heaviest part of the wind it rained in torrents, and it was so dark we had to have lights in the court house, II. M. Shaw. Deserving Praise. We desire to sav to our citizens, that for years we have been selling Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Dr. King's New Life Pills, Bucklen's Arnjca Salve and Electric Bitters, and have never han dled remedies that sell as well, or that have given such universal satisfaction. We do not hesitate to guarantee them every time, and we stand ready to refund the purchase price, it satistactory results do not follow their use. These remedies have won their great popularity purely on their merits. Melville Dorsey, druggist. B.&O.'S NEW THROUGH LINE Preparing for the Immense Traffic Incident to the World's Fair. The management of the Baltimore and Ohio llailroad is preparing for an im mense business in 1893 while the World's Fair is open in Chicago. The terminals at Chicago are capable of accommo dating a much heavier traffic than is now being done, and important changes are being arranged for the handling of ! very Heavy ireiglit and passenger busi ness to the West from New York, Phila delphia and Baltimore. New equipment for largely increased passenger business and an extensive stock of freight cars have been ordered. The various roads of the system will be improved by straightened lines, reduced grades, extra side tracks, and interlocking switches. 1 he new line between Chicago Junction and Akron has shortened the distance between Chicago and tide water twenty- hve miles, and between Pittsburgh and Chicago fifty-eight miles. The distance between Chicago and Pittsburgh and Chicago and Cleveland by the construction of the Akron line and the acquisition of the Pittsburgh and Western line and the Valley Railroad of Ohio, is about the same as via the Lake Shore from Cleveland to Chicago, and by the Pennsylvania from Pitts burgh to Chicago. The alignment is to be changed and grades reduced to a maximum of twenty-six feet. It is expected that within twelve months the old Baltimore and Ohio through line between Chicago and the Atlan tic Ocean will hare passed away and the new line via Pittsburgh estab lished, with no geater grades or curva ture than on any of the trunk lines.' Work has already been begun east of Pittsburgh to meet improvements making west of Pittsburgh. These im provements will consist of additional second and third tracks, a general cor rection of the alignment and completion of the double track on the Metropolitan Branch. It is expected that the new through line will be ready simultaneously with the completion of the Belt Line through the city of Baltimore, which is intended to unitethe Washington Branch with the Philade'phia Division and do away with the present line via Locust Point. Forty new and powerful locomo tive engines were added to the equipment during the last two months, and others in process of construction. The perma nent improvements now under way and in contemplation involve the expenditure of some five millions of dollars. Balti more American. Why Are You in the Church ? There is much of truth in the follow ing: " Why am I in the church? ' asks a denominational exchange, then it pro ceeds to answer the question in this fash ion: The man who quarrels with the Church, and leaves it on the plea that Church members have not been helpful to him as they should have been, is un consciously publishing the fact that his motive in joining the Church was not the right one. Paul did not ask, "Lord, what wilt thou do for me?"' but " What wilt thou have me to do?" The man whose place is in the Church does not ask, ' What can I get out of a member ship in this Church?" but ' What can I do as a member of this Church, for Christ and for the Church?" Go" toll.
