His death was decreed by a company of anarchists, and in the drawing of lots the lut fell to Santo, the ! Italia i who, upon pretense of pre senting M. Carnot a bouquet ot flowers, mounted the steps of his carriage as he drove through the streets and drove a dagger to his vitals. The conspirators were an archists. The anarchists are a class w ho are opposed to civil gov ernment. They are against law and all those who uphold it. The chosen servants of the people are in their eyes, public enemies and the simple fact that they bear power is to anarchists a sufficient reason why they should be put to death. They want all govern, ments overturned and each indi vidual left to do as he pleases. There was no special grievance against M. Carnot he was the head of a government and that was enough. No reason for his death existed that does not exist n the case of President Cleveland for instance, and it is not surpris ing, therefore, to read in the pa pera that whenever our president 'goes out to walk or to ride, he is kept in view by two detectives who scrutinize narrowly anyone who might by ajiy possibility do him any harm ; for there are anarch ists in the United States anarch ists who conceal their sentiments and anarchists who avow them openly. What should be done with them? America is the land of the free. It is our proud boast that this is "an asylum for the oppressed of every clime." We have invited the world to our borders and the invitation . has been accepted Along with the rest have come many who mistake liberty fur li cense, and of these are the anarch ists. Anarchy is not a plant of American growth ; all that we have ot it is imported. Shall we uplitt again the old time on whose folds was inscribed, "America for Amer icans" ? Shall we banish our for eigners and admit no more ? This cannot be done without defying our traditions and revising our national policy. That immigra tion should be further restricted and more rigidly inspected is man ifest. But as to the vile element already among us which would i destroy our social fabric and in stitute in its stead the reign of the mob what ? Upon this subject Representative W. A. Stone, of Pennsylvania, last week introduced m the House a bill denning the term ''anarchist" and providing j penalties for crimes attempted by anarchists. "The bill provides that any persons in any society formed to take human lif 3 or de stroy public property likely to re sult in the loss of human life, shall be considered anarchists, and any such anarchists, who shall attempt to take human life or destroy pub lic property, shall upon conviction in any Circuit Court, be sentenced to death by hanging.' That is very well, so far as it goes, but it lacks much ot going to the root of the matter. After the ''attempt to take human life or destroy pub lic property," is too late, for the attempt may have succeeded. The time to deal with these rattle snakes is before they have done their fatal work.

Anarchy is sedition ; an anarchist society is a conspiraCy against human life and j r J r i ! human government. Sedition and conspiracy ascainsttli3 government 1 7 . . , are aireaay oy law uuiusuaoie uy death and all that is needed is to extend the law so as to embrace anarchy in trins. It will not do in thp casM of a sjciet society t iliis character existing in our midst, to wait for the overt act. As before said, that is too late. We know what its object is: it is to take life and overthrow govern ment. It is the duty of the United States government to take it by the throat and choke the life out of it before it can do either. It can do this with perfect consisten cy with the claim that it is the land of the free; the land of liber ty but liberty regulated by law. States ville Landmark. Tlie Spirit of Anarchy. The spirit of anarchy is not a lone in France. As l'renner Crispi said in his address to the Italian chambers on Monday, "It is common to all governments." If this spirit of opposition to government exists so strongly in democratic nations like France and the United States, it must be much stronger and more wide-spread under the monarchical and despot ic governments of Europe. These anarchists are citizens of no country. They are the out laws of cizilization. They are not only opposed to the government that exists, but are opposed to all government. They would tear down and not build up again. In our own country this spirit of anarchy is not absent. The Hay marken riots in Chicago were manifestations of the spirit, and the prompt punishment of the of fenders had a salutary effect. But recently Governor Alt.geld, in a spirit of leniency, 'pardoned the anarchists who were serving out their just sentences. Is this not nursing the serxent that shall sting us ? The murder of Carter Harrison, the mayor of Chicago, vas another one of these deeds that anarchy so delights in. And the slow justice that lets the vile assissin live for months, and perhaps years, is food for anachy. Every violation of the law is a step towards anarchy, which is abolition ot all law. The tarring and feathering of General Tarsney, the blowing up of railroad bridges the destruction ot property, the taking of human life all of that carnival of crime that striking miners have shown us during the last twro months are but the out croppings of this same spirit of lawlessness, for anarchy is law lessness. Coxey's foolish march to Wash ington, the stealing of railroad trains by the so-called "Indus trials," their destruction of prop erty, was nothing but the spirit of anarchy showing itself in deeds. Every time in infraction ot the law is suffered to go unpunished, we throw a sop to anarchy. Every encouragement of violence is an encouragement of anarchy. Every deed of vice, every abuse of public trust, is an invitation to the Red Monster. Too tight a rein cannot be held on this vile beast that would iteal from us law and virtue and socie ty, that would rob humanity of its better part and make earth a liv ing Hades. The only way to deal with this unreasoning, unknowing, uncaring monster is to stamp him out. Let the iron hand of Law clutch the beast by the throat and throttle it. SPECIMEN CASES. C. tJ.

I saw a pretty bit ot conju al felicity recently. Possibly s.nn ; other people may share my en joyment of it if I reproduce it, as well as m iy be, ir. black and white. An old gentleman, who had long retired from a business which had fairly "feathered the nest" for old age, came from hi9 morning walk. His wife met him at the door her custom for more than fifty years and soon they were seated in their respective easv chairs. 'W here do you think I went this morning, mother?" "As far as any youth of your time, I dare sav," she said proud ly. UI went up to the old neighbor hood, mother.'' They looked straight into each other's eyes in sympathv, and for a little while were silently think ing. "Ytiti," he resumed, "I walked up and down past the house where we lived so long, where Annie was married, and where so many tilings happened. Then I went into lVin berton's grocery to rest." "That was a taste ( old-times, to be sure." said mother. "Pemberton was there himself. Dear, dear, how old he looks! lie introduced me to a fine looking customer, and what do you think he said about us ?" "Oh, something about the days when we were first acquainted, I presume." "He told the gentleman that he served us with goods for forty years, and never had a chance to send us a bill." 'That was a blessed truth." uAnd I told the the gentleman that since the first week we went to house-keeping I had given you the allowance of money, much or little, as I could afford, and you had kept our expenses inside, al ways." "Yes, dear." 4iI told him about the Christmas when you surprised me with the bead purse you had knit for me seemt as if I could see you now, knittinc every evening and trying to turn the beads inside, just as esy and I did not guess that it was to hold fifty dollars in gold pieces which you had saved out of the year's house money." Vell, you had not missed it from the table, or anywhere else?'' "No, no; always enough to tat, and the house as tasty as the house-keeper." "Well, husband, perhaps there were not so many temptations for a house wife to spend money in those old-fashioned times." "Perhaps nt, Jane. But new fashioned times make long faces and long bills and short lives, I notice." Now, this picture ought to be etched upon young lives love and confidence which had walked hand in hand through fifty-five years of married life with a "pay as you go" principle, wnich walked while others rode, to the sure end ot comfort in old age. They had met many riders coming back on foot, as far as the poorhouse, or some condition of homelessness and de pendence upon the favor of friends. This is a prime maxim of Biole lore: "Owe no man anything, but to love one another ;" and it should be accepted as one of the keys to 'good hou se keeping." Ex. The 4tlack on Slate ldn ft a f Ion. We regret to see he efforts that are being made to attack our State institutions for higher education. Now it is the University that is attacked; now it is the Normal and Industrial School for Women, and soon it will be the Agricultural and Mechanical College. These are the three State institutions for the higher education of our youths all established by the State and supported in part by appropiia tions from the treasury. The same principle applies to them all The Agricultural and Mechanical College receives aid both from the State and from the National Treas ury; but all the money it gets comes from the people of North Carolina, whether collected by sheriffs or by Federal officers. The principle is the same in either case. Indeed, the taxing of the people of North Carolina by the Federal government for the sup poit of a college is hardly as de fensible as for the people of North Carolina through their legislature to tax themselves for this purpose. Th ose who are now attacking one of our State institutions for higher education must necessarily attack them all, it they proceed from principle and maintain consisten cy. Why, then, is this attack made.' Why should the State ot North Carolina set up a college for the training of young women and pro ceed to knock it down as soon as ils wall are tilled w ith pupils T Are wo to throw up our hats and shout for the A. A: M. College until it has -UK.) students, and then demand its destruction ? The I'niversilv once had an endowment of two hundred thousand dollars given it by the State, which was swept away by the war. It has lived and grown as a vital part of the State for one hundred y ears, and never in its history did it more nobly fulfill its mission than now. Since 187o, when its reorganization was effected with seven teachers and sixty pupils, it has grown and I struggled amid the prayers and plaudits of our people until now it has twentv-'jix teachers and four hundred pupils, and is deserve lly ranked among the foremost uni versities of America. Is this the time to destroy it ? The Teachers1 Assembly at Morehead has recently resolved to have the State establish a "Reform School." Shall we all favor this untd the school is established and then shall we demand its aboli tion ? It is asked whether the people of North Carolina have a right to tax themselves to give their chil dren tho inestimable benefits of higher education. This question is answered in the lundamental law which created the State, in every re-enactment of their con stitution by Ihe people of the State, in the practice of the State for one hundred years, and in the practice of our sister States throughout the union. The policy is now a part of our Statehood. The denial of the right of a State to maintain schools for higher education is virtually a denial of its right to maintain any schools, tor what is higher education Where aoes it begin '. Where does it end ? Higher education is given to-day in a dozen North Carolina public schools in such places as Raleigh, Goldsboro, Wilmington, Greens boro, Charlotte and Asheville, than was given fifty years ago in the average college. Shall thee schools be closed ? Shall their in struction be curtailed fiom eight, nine, or ten years to three t Shall the orphans in the Oxford Asylum be allowed to study Latin or to practice telegraphy or stenography or typewriting ? Shall the Hind girls and boys be allowed to learn on the piano, or to learn singing from teachers paid by the State t This movement against the State's making provision for high er education within her borders should cease. Hand in hand g educational and industrial prog ress. North Carolina is now en tering upon a great career in both lines. Too lontr has her growth been retarded by' sectional quar rels and divisions, which happily are ended. To tear the State in pieces by new quarrels and jeal ousies over this subject would b? calamitous. It can be done only at the expense of the best interests of North Carolina and of the wl- tafe of oua people. Let us leave the matter alone. Raleigh Observer. Tbe Can e Thereof. The condition of prostration which the world is experiencing at the present time, is confined to no climate nor country. It orig inated with the appalling series of bank failures in Australia which took place a couple of years ago. This embarrassed many strong English concerns which had heavy investments in the former country and was the immediate can so of the failure of Baring Bros., of London. When this gigantic con cern went down it carried with it many hous s which had been re puted sound, and re-tilted in cre ating a stringency in the money market that compelled the holders of American government bond railroad stocks and other securities to sell them ami t ike the money. This started the run on this sidn of the water about the time of the presidential election of 1S!-J, and so trong did the foreign demand heroine f r moBOy that by the time Mr. Cleveland took ollice th Treasury was in a depleted condi tion, and continued to grow wo rue until t lie admimst rat ion w as forced to issue bonds. To assert that this condition of thimrs is the result of the change ot parties is to accept blindly the theory of the demagogue, for we had nothing to do with precipitat ing the panic in the start, the prime causes being located at the antipodes. But while it is true ,hat the chang.; of parti s had . lit tle or in. intluence m bunging on the money panic, it is unquestion ably true that the financial policy of the government for the last two decades has had a guilty part in the terrible affair. The volume of currency is and has been insufficient for carrying on the business of t he country and this necessitated a resort to the private paper of business concerns. The use of private credit, it is stated by some authorities, was. carried to such an extent that li e times more privaie paper than ac tual money was in use. This a9 very good whikv there was mutual confidence, but when the scare came on, and everyone refused to take the note of his neighbor as he had been accustomed to do, this immediately withdrew from circu lation five-sixths of all the circu lating medium. It is no wonde', therefore, that money becaun tight. Then came the conflict o! the two schools of finance, the in flationists, and what might per haps be called the contractionists or the gold bus. This led to the repeal of the silver purchase law to provide for the use of silver) leaving us a strictly gold basis. Now, however, there seems to be a stampede of politicians toward free silver. Senator Cameron's letter on the subject last week se:. all tongues to wagging, although it was Known before that he was ;i staunch friend of silver.
