The Filipino claim to the right of self-government is juL as strong and valid now as when we recognized it then, says an exchange. The IJoers have got the worst of it so far. The British have been signally successful in their battles, if reports are to be relied on though suffering heavy losses. It is not likely that the war in the Transvaal will last long. Indeed, it is rumored already that President Kruger is contempla ting unconditional surrender. Discussion of the United States Senatorship succession is entirely premature. There are other and important matters to be attended to before this comes up in its proper order. Let's disjwj.se of these things first and then we may elect a Senator. There is an abundance of good ma terial to choose from the man does not need to be made, it is only necesssary to select him. Assi MlMi that the if 100 prize offered for the best essay on North Carolina history is made in good faith, what guarantee is given that the "com mittee" will ever be convened and the contest decided? Ami this sug gests another question: Was Secre tary Ayer's coui;nittec(?) still born or born still? We ask for information although the effect in this case is the same since it is still unborn. Says an exchange: When the voters rellect that it requires seventy thousand American soldiers and iifty American warships to retain the Philippines, and that their posses sion is costing this country over a million dollars a day, they will lind very little, if any, comfort in the fact the islands did not come to tis as a result of conquest but for the pur chase price of $20, 000.000. Ulv of your home merchant, patronizing local enterprises when ever you can. The saving of a few cents is not economy in the lonr run. When a man in any business sends his money out of town he is divert ing that much from the channels of his business and it never comes back to him. And we're all in one business or another eveu if that business be the vocation of a day laborer. The new president of the North Carolina Agricultural Society is Charles McNamee, superintendent of the Vanderbilt estate at Piltmore. If Mr. McNamee shall prove as suc cessful in running: an agricultural fair as he has shown himself to be as manager of Mr. Vanderbilt1 vast interests at liiltmore, as illustrated by the magnificent exhibits made at the State Fair the past few years, he will do. The Wilmington Dispatch strikes the right key when it says "let the factories have the grown up people, and the schools the children." Nor is it in the factories alone where children are made to work when they ought to be at school. Parents can not afford to neglect the important duty of giving their children the ad. vantages of a rudimentary education at least such as can be procured at the public schools if they can go no further. Ufox the advice of his physician Admiral Dewey canceled his engage ment to visit Atlanta this week, thereby causing great disappoint ment to the citizens of that city and to thousands of Southerners who had hoped to do him honor on that oc casion. Hut since he will not visit Philadelphia and Chicago for the season that he is broken down and suffering from nervous prostration, they are not alone in their disap pointment. The farmers are learning and di versifying their crops more everv year. We frequently run across items in our State exchanges like the following from the Goldsboro Head light: We notice for sale daily in our streets large quantities of tine home grown hay. Our farmers are begin ning to learn that it can be raised at home for just about the cost of freight on Western hav. The Charlotte Xcu-s is a little vexed because Dewey didn't keep his promise to visit Atlanta. It savs, and we quite agree with it: If Dewey did not intend to come, he should not have made the engage ment; and after he has put Atlanta to the expense of entertaining him. he ought not to let a little indisposition keep him from coming. We didn't intend to give him a house or to furnish it, in which case he miht have come, but he would have re ceived an old-time Southern welcome, such as he would not soon have forgotten. Meet you at the Weldon Fair next week, did you say? Yes, that is being said "all over Eastern North Carolina and Virginia just now. Friend will meet friend, renew old ac quaintances and form new ones. That has always been one of the most enjoyable features of the Wel don Fair you see so many people you know and meet so rainy more. It is easy of access, being a great railroad centre, hence the big crowds that go there. Fkom the Goldsboro Headlight of last week we take the following item: If frost stays off a few days longer some of our truckers will begin ship ping their second crop off beans, When two fairly profitable crops can be raised and marketed of the same ground in one season, who will say there is not life in the old land yet? The Gkeexville It (lector is entirely correct in speaking about the discus sion at this time of Marion Buttler's successor, when it says: It is a question that should not have been mentioned at all until after the constitutional amendment is carried next August, and if it had been deferred until after the general election in November of next year, so much the better. The question ought to be dropped and not carried any further at present. It is stated that paper mills in op position to the trust mills are to be established in Virginia. If so, our brethren of the North Carolina press will have the opportunity to carry into effect the anti-trust resolution adopted at the last Convention. Winston Sentinel. And they will doubtless be ready to take advantage of the lirst oppor tunity offered, since they are paying a higher price for paper and are get ting a poorer quality. As an exchange well puts it, every American interest would have been satisfied by the gaining of a naval station in the Philippines and the opening of Manila to our trade, and every American citizen ought to have been satisfied with this. It was President McKinley who insisted on continuing the war with Spain unless she sold us her vanished title the whole of the Island a title which we are having considerable trouble in establishing our right to. The American vessel, the Columbia, was the winner in the international yacht race. She clearly beat the Shamrock in the lirst race, in the second the Irishman met with an accident, and in the third he was not "in it" at any stage of the game. Although defeated Sir Thomas Lip ton is not embittered and he carries back with him the highest respect ami jrood wishes of everv one who has watched his course while our guest. And this is to be prized above the winning of the cup. He has shown himself to be a thoroughbred gentle man as well as a true sportsman. Long life and happiness to Sir Thomas and may he visit our shores atrain. REV. W. S. LACY. D. D. The Wilmington Messenger says this of the late Kcv. William S. Lacy, D. 1)., whose death was announced last week : He was a truly gifted North Caro linian with fine literary taste, ex cellent culture, a rare touch as a writer and very jreueial, srentle, lovable and noble in charcter. For thirty years we have known him, and have held him in very hi;h esteem and appreciation. He was pro foundly religious, a preacher of much interest and excellence, a wise, tact ful, discreet minister of Christ, loving his fellow men and overflowing with the milk of human kindness. He was born at Raleigh, on the 25th of March, 1842, and was, therefore, in the 58th year his age. He was a son of the late able Rev. Dr. Drury Lacy, so long pastor of the Frst Presby terian church, Raleigh, and also president of Davidson College. He. married Miss Mary Shepherd in 1888 He was very much loved by his brethren in the ministry. No man with his rare combination of lino qualities could fail to draw men to him. We have rarely known so sweet and engajrinj; a spirit. We knew his honored and excellent father well, and was at school with his verv promising brother, Horace, and they were all of a noble breed of manhood. His death will brinjr sor row to many a household in North Carolina, and many a tear will be shed, not that he has been translated to a higher kingdom and is at rest forever, but that his kindly eye shall not beam again in love nor his vanished hand" be touched in sacred friendship again. The statement that the Boers and Orange Free State folks extended l-onvngham Green. British aent at Pretoria, everv civility as he passed from the Transvaal capital to Eng lish territory, indicates that they are not foreign to the courtesies of " civil warfare. Winston Sentinel. Bobbin's chill Pills are the best Cot loss than any other chill and fever remedy, and they are guaranteed to cure, or your money back. Price 25c. per bottle, old by Druggist. The town of Monroe. N.

In no other way can the problem of the educa tion of all the children of any com munity be solved, and we hope the friends of this movement may be successful in their efforts to put Monroe in this list of the most pro gressive towns. Xorth Carolina Edu cational Journal. A Life and Death Fight. Mr. W. A. Hines of Manchester, la, writing of his almost miraculous escape from death, says: '"Exposure after meas les induced serious lung trouble, which ended in Consumption. I had frequent hemorrhages and coughed night and dav. All my doctors said I must soon die. Then I bes;an to use Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, which completely cured me.

Cer tainly the attendance was larger than ever known before, the crowd on Thursday being estimated at 15,00 to 20,000. The exhibits in all depart ments were very good if there was a poor one we do not recall it. In manufactured articles, especially fur niture, the products of the knitting mill, woolen mill and cotton factory, the exhibits were never so good, while the show of live stock, poultry, ag ricultural products, etc., have not been surpassed heretofore. The exhibits of the Vanderbilt farms, poultry, hogs, cattle and pro ducts of the soil, were very line and made one prouder of his Statewhen he saw them. The Occoneechee farm was a close second though not so large an exhibitor. A most admirable and creditable exhibit was made by the Agricultural and Mechanical College. The mechanical articles, machinery, tools, etc., made by the students spoke volumes for this excellent in stitution, while the botanical ex hibit made by it was highly credita ble indeed. Editorially the' Progressive Farmer says this: The people of North Carolina had a Fair this year of which they are justly proud mangificent exhibits showing the State's resources and products, without the usual array of fakirs, gamblers and immoral shows. The attendance was very large. The exhibits were splendid, but the ab sence of the indecent and demoraliz ing side shows was the new feature which most pleased the decent people of the State. To say that the people regretted the absence of the obscene "Midway attractions" of last year is a reflection upon North Carolina and her citizens. DR. HUFHAM'S STRAIGHT TALK. In the News and Observer of Sunday Dr. Hufham had a letter touching the Summerell matter Summerell's "mistake" as the investigating com mittee has been pleased to call it which has attracted wide attention and comment. From the news columns of that paper Sunday wo take this: "It is a bugle blast that will arouse the State," said one man. "I don't know Dr. Hufham," said another, "but I want to meet him and shake his hand once. I'm proud that in these degenerate days North Carolina still has one man who is brave enough to speak out." "A Daniel come to judgment," said a thirtl. "One of the most scathing denun ciations I have ever read," com mented a fourth. "It will arouse an indignation that hasn't been felt before over Sum merell's cruelties," said another. "There must be a mighty writhing and twisting among the directors of the penitentiary to-day," added yet another. And so the comments ran all day Sunday and yesterday. Depi.okable as may be the crush ing of the Transvaal Republic by the British Empire, how much more shameful and unpardonable is our establishment of a military despotism in the Philippines by this Republic, which until now stood before the world for liberty, self government and the rights of man. Greenville Reflector. The ignorant negro who pays not a cent in the treasury as taxes whoso life is the history of a criminal wields as great influence in our elections as the most intelligent tax payer of our State. His vote kills that of the good citizen. Is it well to thus place equal power in the hands of the vicious to destroy and to always threaten? Smithfield Herald. Nothing can be mors foolish than a war upon men of wealth. The rule of saying that a man can not ac cumulate more than a certain amount honestly, is as senseless as it is un charitable. People of no means are bound by the law of charity just as wholly as people of wealth. If we can be charitable in nothing else, we may be charitable in thinking of fel low mortals. We do ourselves and our religion a shameful injury when we ascribe motives and improper actions. Our business is to do our best ourselves. Rich men are needed in the work of the Kingdom. Wake Forest College and through it a thousand young men have need of them: our Baptist Female University needs not only a host of moderate helpers, but a few who can give great sums. We should frown down every effort to discourage men from mak ing great gifts. We cannot afford, as experience shows, to depend wholly upon the poor. Why should we? It is not just to the poor, nor considerate of the rich; there is no wisdom in it. The proper rule is for every one to do his best and to en courage his neighbor, whosoever he is to do likewise. That will make our State and our denomination great. Biblical Recorder. READ THE VERDICT. The only Illustrated Democratic Weekly. Do you rend the Verdict You miss much if you do not. And that you may have the privilege of dointf so on the most favorable terms we will send it to youwith the (ioi.n Leaf one year for 3. 75, the regular subscription price of the Verdict alone being 54.00. The Verdict is the only illstrated Dem ocratic weekly in the United States; is edited by Alfred Henry Lewis, the most energetic political writer of the time; and is illustrated by New York's foremost cartoonists. Its editorials are frank, fearless, forceful: its cartoons satiric, striking, scornful. The Verdict is the people's champion; it stands for what is houorable and just. It advocates An Income Tax, A Graded Inheritance Tax, The Election of U. S. Senators by the People, The Destruction of the Political Power of Trusts, The Public Ownership of Municipal Fran chises, The Initiative and Referendum, and Anti-Imperialism. The fellow who is all wrapped up in himself usually labors under the delusion that he is a warm proposi tion. 1 TRANSVAAL WAR. Cause of the Trouble Presented in a Nut Shell. The cause of the war is the refusal of the Transvaal republic to enfran chise the horde of irresponsible ad venturers and mercenaries attracted there, not through any interest in the country, but by the" expectation of pecuniary profit. They have not gone to the Transvaal with any idea of making it their home, taking part in the progress and development or becoming permanent factors in the nation's destiny. They are simply saldiers of fortune, whose interest in the republic begins and ends with their own private aspirations. Eng land has demanded that these men shall be admitted ttf citizenship. She presents the extraordinary spectacle of a nation insisting upon the ex patriation of her own subjects and their absorption by a foreign country. It is a spectacle so grotesque, so palpably intended to mask a treacher ous and wicked purpose, that it amounts to an affront to the intelli gence of the civilized world. It is simply a modern version of the Trojan horse. England wants her subjects admitted to citizenship in the Transvaal so that they may cap ture and betray the citadel. Wash ington Post. SOUTHERN POETRY. The Confederate Period. Wonder has been expressed that the war gave birth to such a little poetry. It is very clear why the South produced no more. All our energies of mind and heart were engrossed by the struggle while it lasted. Its dark ending could to a proud and sensitive people result only in intellectual torpor, for the time at least. Singing cometh of light and hope; not of dark ness and despair. Had the ending been other than it was; had Southern Independence been achieved; bad the grand uplift of vic tory, the rapture of freedom won, been ours, singers we might have had. The great literatures of the world, Greek, Roman, Spanish, French, Eng lish, have arisen that way. It is not to be believed that the South was so unresponsive to like influences as to remain silent under their sway.. As it was such talent as our post war period produced has been largely venal. Northern gold and Northern praise has mostly bought it. The following verses which were read last Memorial day at Kittrell, are, to my mind, not only the best of war poems, but also the noblest and most enduring monument that has arisen to the Southern Soldier. For having the qualities that insure immortality it can more surely than granite defy the "tooth of time and rasure of oblivion." And we have the great joy of knowing that the delineation there given is just and true. I knew a closely similar case myself. Well can the poet afford to brook the neglect and mild contempt of the sordid majority. He alone giveth to the world its immortal things. Its laws, its sciences, its civilizations, even its religions are as the clouds evanescent. Its true poetry is like the hills, eternal. B. LITTLE GIFF1N. BY FRANK O. TICKNOR, M. D. Out of the focal and foremost fire, Out of the hospital walls as dire, Smitten of grape-shot and gangrene, (Eighteenth battle, and lie sixteen!) Spectre such as you seldom see, Little Giftin, of Tennessee! "Take him and welcome!" the surgeon said: Much your doctor can help the dead!" So we took him and brought him where The balm was sweet on the summer air; And laid him down on a wholesome bed Utter Lazarus, heel to head! Weary War with the bated breath, Skeleton boy against skeleton Death, Months of torture, how many such! Weary weeks of the stick and crutch! Still a glint of the steel-blue eye. Spoke of a spirit that wouldn't die. And didn't! nay, more! in death's despite, The crippled skeleton learned to write! "Dear mother," at first, of course, and then "Dear C aptain," inquiring about the men. Captain's answer "Of eighty and five, Giftin and I are left alive." "Johnston's pressed at the front, they say!" Little Giftin was up and away. A tear, his first, as he bade good-bye. Dimmed the glint of his steel-blue eye! "I'll write, if spared." There was news of a light; But none of Giftin! lie did not write! I sometimes fancy that were I king Of the princely knights of the Golden Ring, With the song of the minstrel in mine ear, And the tender legend that trembles here, I'd give the best on his bsnded knee, The whitest soul of my chivalry, For Little Giftin, of Tennessee! Ernest Clyde Edwards. "One mortai less on earth, an angel more in deaven." In the early morning of October 13th the spirit of little Ernest Clyde, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest E. Edwards, was gathered to its heavenly home. It seemed a fitting time, just as the dark ness of night was about to give wav to the glorious dawn of another day, that the spirit should be freed from the suffer ing body, and wing its happy flight into the light of eternal day. Little Clyde suffered intensely for many necks previ ous to his death. Father", mother and relatives watched over the little MifTerer with the tenderestsolieitude,and all that loving hands could do to stay the mon ster death, was done. Hut God saw fit to gather this little rosebud, ere it was Bullied by the storms of this life, and transplanted it to bloom eternally in a fairer field, and while our hearts are bowed with sorrow, we realize that God knoweth best, and that He doeth all things well. We feel that Clyde has only gone before, and there beekonsTus to a higher, better, nobler life. After the burial services, conducted by Rev. C. L. Whitaker, at Union Chapel, the little form was laid to rest beneath a bank of flowers, in the church cemetery.

SURPRISED THE AUDIENCE. The Fine Entertainment by the Herald Square Opera Company. This is said by an exchange of the Herald Square Opera Company which will be seen and heard at " Cooper Opera House next Thursday evening, when the "Bohemion Girl" will be presented: A large audience greated the Herald Square Opera Compauy last night in Assembly Hall, and every one was en thusiastic in their praise of the high msiciil and dramatical talent displayed. This troupe was really far beyond what was expected, and a delighted audience showed its appreciation by repeated encores. The pinging, acting, and ballet dancing was of the very highest art, while the coftumen were exquisite, and the "Bohemian Girl" was never produced in a more artistic and pleasing manner or to a more appreciative audience. The leading ladies, Miss Ettta Stetson aud Miss May Kilcoyne, seemed to vie with each other for public applause, aud are both sweet singers of wide renown. They were supported by a large and well drilled chorus. Harry Carter, Harry Nelson, Thomas Callahan, and George Williams seemed as near perfect in their roles as it could be possible. B. B. B.

Oh that train, that shuffling train that took our child away; The noise is grating to my ears as it passes day by day; But I should not blame that lifeless thing, for such a deed as that, ' T wa sGod's unseen prov idence that brougb t about this fact. The time may not ba distant when this shall ba revealed, And then what a rich harvest that all this may yield. There is room for hope of all this, for sweet and bright is she, As the noonday sun that gladdens, after a dark and stormy sea. She was the idol and pet of the household, And valued far more than her weight in gold. After her departure there was a stillness almost appalling as death, We sat and listened for her footsteps hardly drawing a breath; But no sound of those darling barefeet could be heard on step or floor, She was speeding toward the mountains among people she did not know. But may she make for herself friends who will cheer and comfort her 'Till she returns to her home, loved ones and anxious mother dear. . Everything was submissive to her earnest childish will, The cats and dogs were patient when she bade them be still. She would oftimes lead the cows to the meadow of her own accord, They would gently walk beside her, though she never spoke a word. She had play-things many of curious fancy and design, But would oft prefer rag dolls to others that were fine. Her swing hung under the elm tree only a night and a day, Papa couldn't bear to see it vacant, so he took it and put it away. She had play houses in every corner and nook. Would place her little things around with an approving look. She could sew really well, yet she had not been taught, Would oft stand by my side to see how tho stitches were caught. The morning before she left she put the chicken coops in order For it was her rule of evenings to get the chickens all together. Of course 1 think she Is a model of perfec tion Yet others may not think so after certain rules of inspection. The aching void that longs to be filled with the presence of my child Cannot be lulled under nine long months is enough to drive me wild. But why should I go on this gloomy way repining? For surely behind this cloud theie is a "silver lining." MAMA.
