TEHM8 OF SUBSCRIPTION x OJLSB Dl ADTAKCK. MARCELLUS E. THORNTON, EDITOR. One Year Hix Month Tfir-e Months 1 ofl 00 35 WHAT NEXT? t- Two English bankers having lagged 10,000,000 of United States gold because of their wil lingness to buy $05,000,000 ot United States bonds and to "pro tect" the people's;treasury for a few months, it might reasonably be supposed that they had had enough of a good thing. But this seems to haje been merely in the nature of a taste. The two bankers have smacked their lips over it and their opinion seems to be that a little more would do no harm. Consequently, they have sur rendered their control of the treasury and left the way clear .for their brethren to rush into the treasury and curt away the gold. Just at present there is a lull in this busiuess, but we may be sure that the treasury will be again raided whenever th for eign bankers think that the time has coine for tkem to rake in a few more millions. The preformance of tho two British bankers in "guarding" the treasury has proved too much. It has proved that a few finan ciers are able to corner all the available gold in this country and in London, and in that way control the exchange market. From February to September, the syndicate performed this feat, and it is a feat that ought to open the eyes of the people to the ability of the money power to manipulate the available money supply of this country to its own profit and to the loss of those who produce the wealth of the country. In the face of the so-called "prosperity" which the people are now said to be enjoying it is safe to say that we are on the eve of some very interesting develop ments. Atlanta Constitution. WHAT DOE3 IT MEAN. It is now rumorecl and the rumor has erone as far as .Madrid that the administration has no tified the Spanish minister at Washington that Spain should act promptly in her efforts to crush the insurrection in Cuba. That is denied in Washington, butnotonthe authority of any one connected with the adminis tration. An anonymous newspaper correspendent merely gives it out as his belief that it is highly im probable that such a hint could have been given to Spain. If the hint has been given, it would be interesting to know what it means. It is open to two constructions. One is that the administration wants Spain to make haste to conquer the Cuban patriots so that it may not be called on by congress to recog nize the belligerent rights of those who are making an effort to establish self-government. Tlse other is that the hint is in a nature of a warning to Spain that unless the patriots are promptly conquered and destroyed this government will be compelled by the popular voice to recognize their belligerent rights. The people ot the country are making things very uncomforta ble for the tories. They are be ginning to discuss the Venezue lan question in not pleasant way, and in all parts of the re public they are making demon strations of sympathy for the Cubans. When congress meets we think the desires of the people with re spect to Cuba will be carried out. Exchange. We are greatly pleased with the Kelly-Messenger, a weekly newspaper Just issued by the deaf amd dumb at the new Asy lum at Morganton. We take very much interest in the welfare of this class of people, and watch their course with much interest. We are at once drawn to this lit tle publication because one of the compositors at work on it worked in the office of the Press and Carolinian and learned the business with us, Mr. Oscar Yoder. This class of work is just the very I thing for deaf and dumb people. It is suited to them and is the very best aid possible to their becoming informed on matters and things in general as well as in particular. They learn to set typo very readily. It is an oc- cular lesson and conveys some idea of the tiling or subject under considertion. We are glad to note the appearence of this paper, but would suggest that they get some ink. Mr. Westinghouse of Pitts burg, Pa., seems, like Mr. Edison, to be an alleviator of the woes of mankind. He has brought to a successful conclusion investiga tions whereby coal is to be made a generator of motive power from what may be termed the "first process." His new invention pro poses to make a motive power of coal without its generation into steam. Thii will revolutionize the business juul make him the first citizen i the World. EXCHANQE OLIO. Mr. Tom Heed's boom would be bigger if it had a man like a Quay to inflate it. The Washington Post insinu ates that Teddy Goosemelt is a pot-hunter. 1 Editor Watterson is not mak ing to the support of Wat Hardin with the vim that is characteristic of an old-fashioned democrat. Meanwhile Hardin is marching right along to victory. It is thought that the wires of the McKinley boom are crossed. There is more misery in the mind of one presidential candi date than there is in the minds of seventeen inmates of a charity hospital. Secretary Carlisle has made a tour of Boston, not on govern ment service. Will he draw his salary for the time he is absent? In he lingo of Shakespeare, "Aye, aye!" The democratic victory in In dianapolis rather caves in Mr. Harrison's grandfather's hat. SackvJUe's attack on Bayard is uncalled for. Bayard is a more loyal Britisher than Sackville himself. The British newspapers have already begun to defend er. Bay ard. And he richly deserves it. Indianapolis Democratic. The Republican of Indianapolis, Ind., suffered the heaviest defeatin the history of the city in 'the -municipal election on the 8th iust. Fairly complete returns show that Thos. Ta gart (Democrat) is elected Mayor by about 4,000 plurality and the rest of the Democratic ticket by about 3,200. Two years ago the Republicans car ried the city by 3,100 and last year the city went Republican by 2,479 on the State ticket. This change of 0,500 in the result is accounted for by about 4,000 htay at-home Republicans, and from 1,200 to 1,500 Republicans voting the Democratic ticket. It is au old story about tramps, yet it is a fact that Charlotte never be fore saw the like of them. The tide is flowing southward. The tramps come into town on the main line of the Southern. They leave the cars at the stopping point of the incoming trains at the crossing near the Air Line junc tion, and scatter about town. A res ident near the embankment place wants the city to post up a big no tice warning tramps to keep straight ou, or tarry awhile with the chain gang. Ex. ' Sarah Lenoir Hall. I Miss Sarah Lenoir, daughter of Hon. ' J. (i. Hall and Annie Jones Hall, died ; at her home in Hickory, N. C, on Friday the 11th inst., at 9 o'clock in i the evening. She was born Oct. 29, 1881, was baptized in the Episcopal church by the Rev. John Husker March 245, 1882, and was confirmed in private, being unable to sit up. by the Rt. Rev. Dr. Joseph B. Cheshire, on the 17th day of June, j93. Bishop Cheshire came to nickory at her especial request and the reception of the holv rite of confirmation was a source of infinite comfort and strength and happiness to her. Though young in years she was rich in faith and hope and love. Her1 sufferings were very great, but she bore them with marvel ous, it may be with unexampled pa tience and fortitude. JSot a word of complaint, not a murmur escaped her. She felt that God was her Father, who had afflicted her not in anger but in love. She was at all times re signed to His holy will, even when her sufferings were most acute. She had no fear of death. Perfect love had cast out fear. I never saw a braver, humbler, gentler, more heroic sufferer. "Out of weakness" she "was made strong." The church should thank God for the gift of such a life as this, as brief aj it was. It will ever be an inspiration, a comfort and a blessing to me and to all who knew her. On Saturday afternoon at 1 o'clock, a portion of the burial service was read at the residence of Mr. Hall by the Rector of the Parish and the Rev. E. A. Osborne, of Charlotte. Mr. Os borne made a few comforting, touch ing remarks, after which the body was carried to the station, attended by many sorrowing friends, prepara tory to its removal, for interment, to Caldwell county. On Sunday morn ing she was buried in the cemetery of. the Chapel of Rest in the Happy val ley. The service was read by the Rev. James A. Weston to a very large con gregation, many of whom could find no seats in the church. The sermon was preached from the text, "She hath done What shecould.M St. Markxiv:8. We left her in God's Acre, seemingly consecrated by 2sature to holy uses near the graves of her grandparents, General and Mrs. William F. Jones asleep in Jesus. "Blessed sleep From wblch none ever wake to weep." J. A. W. Hickory, N. C t Oct. 15, 1895. County Commissioner Connelly Resigns. The County Commissioners met lastrMonday and Tuesday and auionr other business,- Commissioner Horace W. Connelly, of Connelly's Springs, resigned as a member of the Board. ' We regret to chronicle, this fact, as it is a loss to Burke county of an efficient official and a respected citizen, and al so a surprise to Mr. Connelly's numer ous friends who will miss him. Mr. Connelly will leave this coiiuty for Greens.boro, N. C, w here he goes to live. His action, we understand, is on account of his daughters' education. They are at Greensboro Female Col lege and Mr. Connelly wants to be with them, so he will move to Greens boro. He leaves Connelly's S rings next wek for his new home. Horace Connelly is too well known here to need comment of any kind on his life, everybody knows him for a broad minded, progressive, christian gen tleman, and any community will be better off by having him in it. He has served as a Commissioner of the ounty of Burke for several years and has always givan entire satisfaction. We regret to give Mr. Connelly up, and the only consolation to his friends is, that in a few years, at most, he will reiurnandbe with us again. Mor ganton Herald. HOW TO MAKE A FORTUNE Flo HiH H h Breaks Law. The Rutherford Democrat this week says: 'We are informed that Presi dent Cleveland has accepted an invi tation from Col. Frank Coxe to spend several days with him at his delight ful Green River farm shooting quail. Mr. Cleveland will stop over with Col. Coxe as he returns from Atlanta about the 25th." 25th of what? October? If so, and the Prosident kills any "quail" before November 1, some cross roads magis trate ought to haul him up and fine him $5 fine for each bird killed. "Quail" sounds hightoned, but they all know that it is nothing more nor less than our ordinary every day "partridge." Charlotte News. . Rev. J. M.
