1 ! t: It AT HOME AGAIN, Carlisle and Grcsliam on. The Slump, ami Illinois ami Indiana All Right, MISSOURI SOLID. Ex-Vic President Lo i I florton's Ccachmzn ;.lay Have to go Uz' U to Lnglznd-The Congressional Ccmpcign Committee has Finished. -Vvasiii sgtox, Oct. 22, "0 1-PresL l.-iit Cleveland will return to the White House this week and it is pre Mimed, although not yet certain, that M rs. C le veland and the ch ildren will accompany him. The White. House ha been cleaned front cellar to garret, a force of men having been working irom theday the President and his family left until Saturday night, to brighten up things for the winter season. Secretary Carlisle has almost -consented to deliver several speeches in Indiana and New York and the pross ure is so greaat that there is little doubt that he will inthe end consent It was not because he had any objec tion to making speeches or doing any thing else that is proper to aid the democratic party that he at first de clined to make these speeches, but be cause he is very . busy and expects to continue so until after the meeting off Congress, and because he was so mod est as to be unable to sea the imp or tance that democrats all over the country will attach to his speeches. The last is the hardest to overcome. By working overtime he can make up for the time lost, but it is difficult to convince a man as free from anything approching the big head as Secretary Carlisle is that anything he may say or do will be a poweraful factor to Avards the success of his party. Secretary Gresham, who returned from Chicago a few days ago, says he found the. democrats of Illinois in bet ter shape than ho expected from newspaper accounts of the situation, and that he thinks thd party will hold its own in the Congressional dis. tricts and will control the legislature, which elect Senator Cullom's .suc cessor. Now for a surprise, I have just learned from a trustworthy source that there is a strong probability that Secretary Gresham will speak, both in Illinois and Indiana, before the close of the campaign. Mr. T. O. Towles, a prominent offi cial of tho House, has just returned from his home in Missouri. He has carefully investigated the political situation in the State and his judge ment is regarded good by all who know, of the accuracv of the pre dictions he has made in previous con tests. He says that the democrats are now working harmoniously all over the State and are certain to hold their own in Congressional districts, and have a good lighting chance to send a folid democratic delegation to the next House. Missouri is one of the states in which the republican: campaign committee has been figuring, or at least claiming to figure, on big gains. Every prominent democrat who lias U'on in Washington "for the last two or three da vs endorses the action of Senator Hill, or anti- Tammany mun icipal ticket, as well as on theTamma nytieket, as not only good political but under the circumstances absolutely necessary politics. They feel that Senator Hili was perfectly right in declining to make the success of the State ticket dependent upon the elec tion of the Tammany ticket, as it would have been had the State ticket been printed only upon the Tammany tirket. While' the reports from Now jVork are far from satisfactory' most eiuoo: a: art still -oonfulpnt tli-t If ill . A v . wm win. In view of the action of Judge Lar combe, of Nev York, in denying the application for a writ of habeas cor pus in the case of Mr. Morton's English coachman, who has been ordered de lorted for having come to America in yiclation of the alien contract labor law, and deciding that the Seeretaty of the Treasury alone has the author ity to decide whether the claim made, that the man was Mr. Morton's domes - tic servant and therefore exempt from the law in question, was valid Secretary Carlisle has directed that the immigration board of review at Ellis Island make a thoroh'gh investiga tion, and report to him, in order that he may finally decide the case. There is no politics in it so far as Secretary Carlisle is concerned. He regrets the decision of Judge Larcombe, believing that puts more authority in the hands of the Secretary of the Treasury than the frauiers of the law intended that he should have, but will, of course make the decision. The Congressional campaign com mittee has about completed its work, so far as the sending out of democratic literature is concerned. From now mtil election its work will be mostly of an advisory nature, although- it will also keep the democratic district man ager's posted as to any new schemes put out ' by republicans to catch votes. Members of the- committee think the Congressional situation in New York city, which has been awfully conpli catcdin nearly all the districts because of there being two democratic candi dates Tammany and anti-Tammany in each, has been greatly helped by the withdrawal of Straus and the sub stitution of ex-Mayor Grant as the Tammany candidate for mayor. The Congressional committee wants dem ocrats elected to Congress, anddoes'nt care a fig whether they are Tammany or anti-Tammany, and it is working to prevent the running of two democratic candidates in anyone district, believ- jng tnar.it is ioojen to xuus give seats to republicans which rightfully be long to democrats. Sublime Indifference Oliver H, Dockery, in a speech in Ilaleigh, said he cared nothing for the county Government matter. Report of Raleigh speech. And that is just where "my son Oliver" misses it. He is afraid to stand by his own ragged, jagged, frayed, de pleted, superanuated Radical remnant of played outs in North Carolina, and so he snaps his fingers and raises his voice in glee and says "I care nothing for County Government." He ought to care. When he knows how much the County Government system has done forhis native North Carolina he should care, and care very much. He knows well enough that its abolition by th Rad-Pop conspiracy against the people of North Carolina would mean a very great deal to them. He knows how his vernal, rascally party in 1SG9 70 robbed and ruined the State," and how in the Eastern and Central negro counties the people were, greatly op pressed by the ravages and spoliation and thieving of Republican county of ficials and the ruinous taxes levied. He knows that to return to power the black and tan pillagers would be to bring back the roaring, rushing freshet of robbery and rascality that would break the banks and flood the counties with its work of desolation and ruin. This is a figure, but expresses what would be a fact. The cry of an honest, intelligent, patriotic North Carolinian should be keep the rascals out and never turn them in. And yet "my son Oliver,' with all of his large observation, advanced age. j abundant opportunities of knowledge, in this year of grace 1894, when the best interests of the State are most seri ously endangered, with the devil-me- j care air of Mr. Stoker and the cheery ; look of Bob Acres says to the good peo- pie of the negroe counties "I care I nothing for County Government' io I not care n tin whistle whether von are plucked and-oppressed. It is no affair of viine. Iam one of your Radical old boys who has been seeking office for decades and has now and then been a trough t reader. You may take- care of yourselves if you m.

His Physicians Disagree as to the Trouble In the flcantime, However, the Czar is Dyinz-Prlncess Afix to be Marridd. St Peterburg, Oct. 23 The latest news from the bedside of the Czar is depressing indeed: It is generally conceded that he can not last more than a few days longer at the out side. Suffering has in creased and is doing so hourly. Private advices from those in a posi tion to know say that the extreme point of endurance has been reached. THE MARRIAGE TO CCCUR. It is taken for evidence that th e Czar is much worse, the fact that the Princess Aliz has consented to waive religious object; on to her marriage, and it will take pice to day. The nup tials will be solemnized at the bedside of the Czar, who, despite heroic forti tude, is unable to leave his bed. His feet and feet are badly swollen. INCURABLE. Paris, Oct. 23. The Figaro to-day publishes a dispatch from Lividia to the effect that there is great difference of opinion among the Czar's physicians as to his disease. ; Prof Zacharina says that the trouble is a cancerous tumor, just be low the left kidney, and as on opera tion is impossible the sickness is incur able. Prof. Leyden holds that it is a benign cancer and perfectly curable. KO FEAR CF TROUBLE It is held on good authority that in case of - the Crar death no internal troubles are to be feared. The Russian departments are now all inthe hands of honest, capable and liberal-mined statesmen. Besides the people are not in an ex citable frame of mind and in no wise prone to revolt. CATARRHAL DYSPEPSIA. A Discourage Invalid Restored to Health and Happiness. Catarrh of the stomach causes a con dition known as dyspepsia or indiges tion. It usually results from catarrh in the throat, but sometimes occurs in people who have never had catarrh elsewhere. The symptoms of dyspep sia are: liver complaint, biliousness, sour stomach, water-brash, bloating, after eating, constipation, piles, and, in many cases, low spirits, dizzy head, synpathetic heart palpitation, pain, indigestiou, looseness of the bowels. Pe-ru-na and Man-a-!in, taken accord ing to directions on the bottle, will cure every one. The followingfis a specimen of the letters received from patients: O. S. McQuillan. Spring Hill, Iowa, writes:. "Four years ago last fall my stomach, without any previous warn ing, refused to preform its functions, and I soon lost strength. During this time food waii forced through niy sto mach by using cathartics- "With flesh wasted away, strength exhausted so that it took all my energy, to even get into a bath tub, hopes all gone I be gan to take Pe-ru-na and Man-a-lin, following freeadvica which Dr. Hart man gave me. In a short time Lcould eat nourishing food, and the piles, Idddney trouble and constipation dis- appeared. Flesh, strength, and a splendid appetite returned, and I went to work.'

Deaver, an Asheville de fective, arrived at the Long Island Mills, near Catawba Station, on the 13th inst., and claiming to represent the insurance company holding a risk on James Brown's life, he mingled free ly with the people, pretending that he was satisfied that Brown suicided and he wished proof, if it could be obtained to bolster up that solution of his tak ing off. Learning. after his arrival that one Elmore Burns, a night hand at the mill, had said that he believed Elam Josey had committed the mur der, the man was sent for and affirm ing the belief stated it was based on Josey s action when he saw Miss Essie Brown enter the store the neixt morn ing after the murder. In the language of Burris: "He was standing watching Miss Brown, and when she entered the store jumped as if he had been shot, apparently knowing what an awful sight would meet her eyes.-" Thus armed the detective repaired to the home of Elam Josey and after a brief interview charged him directly with the murder and arrested him. This arrest caused a partial! confession, re sulting in the immediate apprehensiou of Thomas Covington, the son bf the foreman of thq mill, a a party to the murder. The confession of Josey was as follows: "Covington told me the morning after the murder that he killed Brown. He said henvent to the store and that Brown,' who was watch ing, cut him off from the door and asked, is that you Pope? Is that you Tom? whereupon he sprang at him, got him down and wrenched Ins pistol from his hand and shot him, first in the breast, then in the neck, and final ly behind the left ear.M Josey admits that he and Covington had been raid ing the store for over a year. They area beautiful brace of scoundrels and it appears to us that they richly de serve to grace the gallows. Mary Lease a "Sooner." V Topeka Kan., Oct. 12,The Repub lican State Central Committee to-day made .public an affidavit by T. L. Dixon and his wife, A. A. Dixon, Su perintendent and Matron of the State Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb in Olathe, in wqich Mrs. Mary Lease, who was President of the State Board of Charities, is accuse of advising them to steal from the State and give her a portion of the proceeds. They also charge that the board appropriated sufficient to defray the. expenses of its members to the World's Fair. After telling how Mrs. Lease volun teered to obtain the positions whieh thev afterward secured, Dixon and his wife say that on the evening on which they were installed Mrs. Lease called upon them and said: "Now, Judge, you have a chance to make money. Now, pay yourself romthe income of the insitution, and charge it to maintenance and repairs of the same. All you will, ha vh to do vill be to make your hooks ngre wirl the amount you take." His answer was: "I can't do that. 1 never had that kind of a reo d ' She again remarked: "uju about $20,000 go by you vh..,, were Police Judge of Wichita, you take care of yourself. Don foolish.

I then repeated my. former answer, that I could not do that. Thenshe went into a statement as to what the Board of Charities did after they concluded their work over the State. All of them wanted to tro to the World's Fair, and did not want to use their own money. They decided that it would take $00 apiece to take tb round' trip and board them. She said they ordered the steward to make up a voucher for maintenance and re pairs, and the board allowed it. drew the money.and went to thefalr.This he said, was done at the insane asylum.

Royster, 40-4tf. STATE NEWS. Judges fijek and Seymour, the. most highly honored Republicans in the State, and' th presiding justices of the North Carolina Federal Courts, will not vote for the fusion non-partisan (?) J ndiciary candidates. They will both vote for the Democratic nomi nees. The Greeensboro Record is authori ty for the statement that Chainuam Holten, of the Republican State Com mittee has plenty of funds and is rap idly placing it where it will do the most good. The Citizen announces that ex-Post master Geo. W. Cannon, of Asheville, is short in his accounts about 1,000. He has already paid the govern men about 1,200 of this amount Democracy inthe Rural Districts. Saturday afternoon we accepted an invitation from Mr. J.D. Klliottprest. of the Hickory Democratic Club, to at tend Democratic speechifying in the Houk school house at S p. m. Wo left the city at 7 p. in. in company with President Elliott, Messrs. Hall, Self and I W. P. Huffman, and on reaching our destination found a goodly crowd us sembled and awaiting our comimr. The speakers were Col. Hall, W, A. Self, and T. M. Hufham, who gener ously proffered a division of time to the f usionists if they desired it. When it was declined Mr. T. M. Hufham spoke most eloquently for Democracy, occupying not more than twenti min utes, but everlastingly disposed of the bull pen fictions of Rep-Pop speakers in Eastern North Caroline. He was followed by Col. Hall in a good speech, but too much anti-Democratic to make votes for the Democratic party in Catawba county. When the Col. had concluded, Mr. W. A. Self, "the ex hauster," took the stand, and, for perhaps an hour, belabored the con f usionists" from end to end with tell ing effect. His speech was most cred itable to himsalf and a complete vin dication of Democracy from the as persions of calumniators. He certain ly demonstrated the inefficiency of county government when committed to Populistic control. Mr. Self is a humorous and most interesting speak er, but, socially, he can, when so dis posed be as silent as a clam. The above was left out of our last issue. Walter L. Jl tin's Show You have all been to the Circus lso the show. It is a never failing source of enjoyment and pleasure as well for the grown folks as the young people and children Walter L. Main has one of the best and most interesting shows on the road. He has 30 car loads in his train. Hickory was favored in having him here. The wild ani mals are a wonderful exhibit. The Sho isali new. His show was in a wreck on the Pa. Railroad near Tyroano two years ago, and that Co., bought hm a new outfit and kept on buying for him until he said he had enough So he has got the best. The Railroad did not want him to sue for damages . The Charlotte Observer of Tuesday, praises it very highly and says there were 7.000 people at the show, and saw every thing billed.
