About "Rejolutlom of Respect,"
For the dead or living there never
linn boon a rrreater fsreo than the
Resolution of I'leepoctbunincaH. We
Imvo noticed from time ro tuno, 01
resolutions tM-injf adopted and siin
otl y eommiitfHis tliat wt-re appoint
d to draft them, when to our ci r
tHin knowlodtfo there wa not i
word of truth in them. Itinerant
pn-Mchern, soinotimoe, after having
served their tune out at certain
iilaees, are followed by ynn reso
lutions. They Iihvo been so taithful,
which we doubt not is perfectly
true, and wo will show our high
aireciHtioii(0 of their valued ser
vices by this mark of respect. While
tin so deceitful papers are being
drawn, some, if not all, of the com
mittee, are rejoicing becanno of the
removal, "V c are glad of a change;
tho old preacher has beeoino too
titale," etc ISIiow your reward for
your preacher while he is among
you and then them; lying resolutions
will not be in demand.
Tho BHino may apply to resolu
tion dratted in memory of the dead.
While living, not a good word is
ppokvn to help tho weary traveler
on hi way, but when death ditirolics
him of everything earthly, a loving
committee is apixiinied to uratt
resolutions and tell of all his good
deeds, and how it suddens our hearts
to tfive linn up. r lowers ate heap

who never did otherwiso than to
tnrow thorns and briers in Ins pa'h-
-hv while he trtKi the paths of life.
We do nut mean to say that all reso
lutions of rerpect am insincere, but
we firmly lielieve that nine-tenths of
them are founded Ukii hypocrisy.
Many tomoHtones bear the nn-
pre, too, of falnchood upon their
facca. If we cannot conscientious
ly speak well of tho living or dead,
it would be far better to sy tioth
in at all than to place on record a
hutch of fitlseliootls in the shape of
"Resolutions of Respect."

when sincerely given, otherwise it

Has a Day and Night Eye.
A year ago tho 11 -year-old son of
Oliver Canaday,a farmer living near
I.inwood, Indiana, wa kicked over
the right eye by a mule. It destroy
ed t lie ritflit in that eye. A month
Hgo, while working in a hay loft, bo
got dunt in bis good eve and was
compelled to baudtigo it for some
time. During that time tho blind
eye seemed to undergo a change,
and be was able to see objects in a
dark room. lie tinally was able to
see things in a ditrk room as plainly
wiih his bad eye as he was able to
see them in the light with his good
but crippled eye. He cannot, how
ever, see anything with the bad eye
in tho light. The darker tho more
distinctly do things stand out. He
is, in short, fitted with a day and a
night eye.
Since he found what a freak he
poeset-ssed on his light side he hits

with ees for all occasions. The
eye that was injured is in appearance
as good as the other though l lie

Those who have given the strange

without equal in optical enigmas.
It is thought that the same theory
will account for this as that which
accounts for a man being able to seo

Our dispatches told yesterday of
tne organization ot a gigantic truei
to control tho money market ot New
York City and through it tho w.ioio
country. The report may hofrno
or it may be a canard ; we published
it for what it was worth. It was at
any rate suggestive.
Ono thing suggested by the re
port is tho feasibility ot such
scheme. There is no reason why it
should not bo carried ont if, say,
half dozen men were to combino the
capital and influence at their com
mand. A little reflection will ro'
veal the fact that within recent years
largo combinations of capital have
attempted few things in which they
failed. Despito legislation aimed
directly at them by the dillerent
States they have gono serenely on
their ways disregarding statutes and
laughing at courts and attorney
generals
As a matter of fact such acotnhi
nation as this reported trust is not
only a possible but a strictly logical
sequitur from present tendencies.

Mr. Cleveland confessed tho United

as a common sense proposition,

much do enough tnoro to practically
become masters o! tho country I
As "free born American citizens''
wo uro inclined to pooh pooh such
a proposition as an impossibility nut
a little quiet investigation will shake
such robust confidence. We are apt
to forget that people can be ruled
mote easily and just as effectually by
influence as by force. Tho Czar of
Russia really takes a very dangerous
and expensive method of being auto
erat.
As we have before pointed out
he hairbrained and rabid "reform
ers" in this country have, by whole
sale denunciation of everything
that does business in a two story
building as a trust and by charging
to their machinations all sorts of
iriiossible evils, disgusted the more
sane and conservative element oi
our people. And therein lies the
real danger. P is not a matter
calling for a larger supply of wind
hut for more careful consideration.
There lies in this old and yet new se
cret of power through co-operation
a real menace to the country tho
only real menace indeed that can lie
conjectured at present; very much
more grave than the supposed
menace of lawlessness.
It does not follow that because
many things are called trusts that
are net sucn ttiat there are no
trusts at all. It does not follow
that because demagogues charge
them with impossible evils thut
there are not possible evils in them.
As usual there are two opposite
ends to the controversy which may
be safely teitned extremes Aud

Down a High Embankment, Killing
Engineer and Fireman,
j P. N. Smith of this place received
a telegram last night announcing
that Ins eon Frank P. Smith had
been killed yesterday afternoon on
the Atlantic fc Danville railroad.
Mr. Smith who waa formerly an
engineer had been reduced by a
general order to fireman and it was
whilo serving in that capacity that
he met his deith.
Telegram received from Mrs.
Smith this morning, by Fireman
Smith's father, says she will leave
West Norfolk tomorrow morning
at it:5() with the body which will be
buried here. Arrangements have
not yet been perfected as to timo.
doling Smith had been married
only some six months and his body
was taken to his home in Y est Nor
folk. The Danvillo Register says
of tho disaster :

were instantly killed. in gage
master Iswis and Mail Agent J. M.

mainder of the crew ami the passen

There is a high embankment at
the scene of tho accident, and tho
engino followed by the combination
baggage and mail coa.'h and second
class passenger coach, toppled over
the declivity. I he engine tell en
tirely over on its side, and the men
in the eab met almost instant death.
The baggage-master and the tnaii
agent were only slightly injured.
Tho rear passenger coach remained
on tho track. An inspection of the
track disclosed the cause of the dis
aster to be the spreading ot tho rails
at the point the train left the track.

The South Turned Down,
Tho Secretary of the V. S. Treas
ury recently gave out a remarkable
statement concerning the appoint
ments by States in his department.
His table shows that while tho Dis
trict of Columbia has an excess of
appointments of 2 'S, N'orih Caro
iim has a deficit of 20. Ihe Iar
Heel State is entitled to 65 appoint
ments in the Treasury Department
and is credited with 30. Every
Southern State except Miryland,
Virg'nia and West irginit has a
deficit of appointments in this de-
paitmeut and this statement illus
trates tho discrimination against the
South in every department ot the
government. We get these tacts
from a late Washinpton special.

North Carolina's Fine Climate.
What a fine climate North Caro
lina is blessed with, and what great
advantages fall to her people. It is
not infrequent that two crops of
fruit are reported in ono season, or
two crops of food from tho same
land, lu yesterdays Messenger,
from Granville cntne the report of
two crops grown this year on two
acres. The first crop waa thirty
two horso loads of rye from two
acres. The second crop on the samo
land wsa ten barrels or fifty bushels
of corn per acre. That is very tine
indeed. A day or two ago another
county reported three crops this
year on the same land. Some one
writes to the New Bern paper that
in Pamlico county a farmer made
twelve bales of cotton on fourcrea.
If tho bales sro of regulation size
that is indeed superb cropping.
Do not let fruit growing, a most
important industry, bo overlooked
here. Lxcellenf returns are report
ed tLis year. What has been ac
complished is but a toretasto that
awaits North Carolina if its farmers
and others will give their time or a
part of it to growing fruit of differ
ent kinds, and learn how to prepare
it properly for shipping to the vari
ous raai kets. Tho State labor com
missioner will report that fourteen
counties ship 00,000 barrels; Hay
wood and Swain 15,000 each ; Cald
well and Wilkes. 10,000; Yancey,
Clay, Jickson and Surry, 8,000.
lhero are many localities in tins
State where eRclies are seldom
killed, and especially is this the case
in tho thermal belt region. Apples
aro kept ali winter in ordinary cel
lars. It is destined to be tho great
est apple growing region in Ameri
ca. Ixit our people wake up. They
have all about them a veritable
Iarid of Goshen. To abandon
North Carolina for another state is
fully. Wilmington Messenger.
As to that portion of the above
statement which refers to Surry's
shipment of apples, it is erroneous;
Mount Airy, tho motropo'is of SuM
ry county, has alone already shipped
about 15,000 barrels, and will ship
several thousand additional barrels
before tho season closes.
Cranks Are Not Successful,
No successful man is a crank.
Look over the cranks of your ac-
itiaintanceandyou will be surprised
to notico that not one of them does
anything well. They are not prom
lnent citizens; they are not promi
nent socially ; they do nothing for
the general gotrtf. A crank who is
a lawyer ia. not a goinj lawyer; a
crank is usually a crank because he
is a failure. After demonstrating
thai he lacks ordinary common sense
a crank pretends that he knows ev
erything, and that other people do
not know anything; that society
has learned nothing from experi
ence, and that the world should be
turned upside down to accept some
of his untried theories. If yon can
avoid being a crank you'd better do
it. Greensboro Patriot.
Mrs. Thersa Cardoza, a well
known resident of San Francisco,
who died on Saturday, was bnried
Tuesday. She weighed over six
hundred pounds and the under
takers had to break down the stairs
of he late residence in order to
lower the body into the hall. A
special casket, bound with iron, was
constructed for the remains, and as
it was too largo for any hearse in
the city, it was taken to the cemetery
in a heavy express wagon. Mrs.
Cardoza had been married twice and
leaves five children, the youngest
being 14 years old.

ONE OF TWO WAYS.
Tho bladder Was created for on
purpose, narnoly, a receptacle for
the urine, and as such it H not liable
to any form ot diseaso except by one
of two ways. The first way is from
imperfect action of the kidneys.
The second way is from careless
local treatment of other diseases,
ctutr CAtsg.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the
bladder, was creatod for one pur
pose, and if not doctored too much
is not liable to weakness or disease,
except in rare cases. It is situated
back of and very close to the blad
der, thereforo any pain, diseaso or
iticouvenienco manifested in the
kidneys, back, bladder or urinary
passage is often, by mistake, attrib
uted to female weakness or womb
trouble cf some sort. The error it
easily mado and may be as easily
avoided To find out correctly, set
('our urine aside for twenty-four
tours; a sediment or settling indi
cates kidney or bladder trouble.
The mild and the extraordinary ef
fect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great kidney and bladder reme
dy, is soon realized. If yon need a
medicine you should have the best.
