O. CO It It, Editor and l'roprietor. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE, $1.00 THURSDAY, DEC. 31, 1896. J U STICK AYEljY. It is indeed gratifjiofj to his friends here to read the many complimentary references by the press of the State to justice Avery, upon his retirement from the Su preme Court bench. We are proud of the reputation he has made and Burke is more than glad to claim him as her sen. The Charlotte Observer of Sunday says : It was noted in our Raleigh cor respondence yesterday that with the adjournment ot the Supreme Court for the holidays, Justice Avery retires from the bench, his term having expired. The event is one worthy to call forth regret from all the good people of the State. Judge Avery is a very able man and a thoroughly finished lawyer and judge. Any good lawyer in the State will say that he is among the ablest men who have sat upon the bench in North Carolina in half a century. As a judge of the Superior Court he demonstrated such capacity for the judicial office that promotion came naturally. As a justice of the Supreme Court he has more than ever sustained his reputation; more than justified the best ex pectations entertained concerning him He has had a high concep tion of the responsibilities of his great office and a keen apprecia tion of what was due the. public xrom one occupying his station. He knows .the law and if in any case its meaning'has been obscure his native Wisdom has led him to a just arijd logical conclusion. With a natjural fondness and apti tude for politics, he has, upon the bench, been a lawyer aad a judge, pure and simple. No power on earth could or can swerve him from what.appears to him to be right. Abie, well-balanced, deep learned, he nest, concientious, just, he has beeb the ideal judge and the State, in losing him from the bench, loses much. Of the man as a man anything good might be said with truth. Brave and hon orable, gentle as a woman, with out malice, open, sincere, he wears worthily a distinguished and an honorable name, one which has long adorned our annals and been intimately associated with our best history and traditions. The people in the State have learned to revere him as a judge and their best wishes will follow him into private life. As will be seen from a clipping in another column, Mr. C. B. Moore, Republican, of Asheville, has been appointed clerk of the Federal court at Asheville, the place having been made vacant by the death Mr. R. O. Patterson. Along with many Republican ap plicants, there were a number of Democratic candidates for the po sition, but as the Asheville Citizen remarks, " it made little difference whether there was one or many Democratic candidates for the clerkship, as the naming of a Re publican was a foregone conclu sion. Democrats may, with the same probability of success, an nounce themselves candidates for Collector and Postmaster after March 4th. Unanimity or discord amongst Democrats are alike dis regarded by Republicans when they have places to give to their partisans." A Handsome Compliment to Oar Towns man Mr. C. F. McKesson. Franklin Times. Rarely is there accorded to any community a purer pleasure than that enjoyed by the large assemblage of the people of Louisburg and many others, in our Opera House on last Sun day afternoon, at 3:30 o'clock, there assembled to listen to an ad dress upon the Holy Bible by Mr. Charles F. McKesson' of Morgan -ton, N. C. The scene in its mauv striking features was indeed a most inspiring one. The large room, floor gallery and stage, crowded by a very large and appre ciative audience, the full choir of fifty voices accompanying the hweet notes of the organ, all led by an accomplished Precentor, the unbroken attention during the delivery of the entire address for over an hour, the tine presence of the speaker, while the address it self was a classical gem lit up by rays of pure spirituality, reflecting the delicate and well shaded light of Mr. McKesson's keen apprecia tiouofhis Blessed Theme these were some of the more striking features of the rich entertainment It is not, in any sense, too much to say, that our people will be only too glad to welcome Mr. McKesson again among us, whether he comes to give as another lecture or ir his charming role of the cultured Christian gentleman to visit us sociallv. ft.

WASHINGTON GOSSIP. What 1 Heine Talked About at the Na tional Capital During the Conjrrrstlonal . lleceas. . From Our Regular Correspondent. Washington, Dec. L'S. Con gress not beting in session, the tariff barons who were hi and around the ways and means com mittee room at the capitol, in which Mr. Dingley and his repub lican associates ou the committee to-day began the public hearings upon the several schedules of the proposed new Dingley tariff bill, were the centre of attraction. The schedule upon which today 'd hear ings were based was that embrac ing spirits, wines and other bever ages, me republicans Had ex pected that the South would bp larsrelv represented amnnf flmsft asking for favors under this sched ule, uuc tuey were uisappointed. The next schedules to bo taken nn will be that of cotton goods, fol lowed by that ou sugar and mo lasses. There seems to be a treneral dis position to misunderstand the issue raised between Congress aud the President bV Secretarv Olnev whan he said thnt-the Presideut would uot obey a joint resolution, even if passed over his veto,directing him to recognize the independence of Cuba, because the President alone uaa the right to decide such ques tious. It is not contended by the Senators who will oppose Secretary Olney's position that the President has uot the right to recoguize a new State without referpiirrp rn Congress; ou the contrary, they freely concede him that rio-hr..' They claim, however, that a joint resolution of Consrress when it he- comes a law, whether by ordinary metnorts or by being adopted by a two tuiras vote over the Presi dent's yeto, is just as binding upon the President as any other law. In other words, that while the President may exercise his discre tion as 'to recognition in the ab sence of cougressional action, it is iu the power of two thirds of Con gress to compel him to obey its behests, in recognizing the inde pendence of a new state, as well as in anything else. The claim that Congress wished to deny the President's right to act independ ently of it iu recognizing a new state has been put forward to muddle the question. The question will not be settled soon, anyway, as the Cameron resolution for the recognition ef Cuba hasn't the slightest show to get through the House, and will be lought stoutly rn the Senate. The announcement that Repre sentative and Senator elect Money, of Mississippi, who is a member of the House committee on foreign affairs, had taken advantage of the congressional recess to go to Cuba for the purpose of making a per sonal investigation of thesituation, has caused much gossip in Wash ington. While everybody knows that Mr. Money means wells, there is a disposition to regret the pub licity which has been given to his trip, because it looks like a reflec tion upon our State Department and its agents in Cuba. Confidential agents of the Wana maker and the Choate senatoriaf booms have been working on the frieuds of McKinley in order to get him to throw his influence'ou their side. But they have not suc ceeded. While there is little doubt that most of the original McKinley men would rather see Wanamaker sent to the Senate from Pennsyl vania than Quay's man, Penrose, who, by the way, is being sup ported by the National A. P A., ahd Choate elected Senator from ew York instead of Piatt, but they cannot see a good enough chance for either to win to advise McKinley to take a stand that would make Quay and Piatt the open enemies of his admistration Hon. Wm.S.HoIman, of Indiana, whose familiar face and rigid views on government economy have been missed from the present House, has been elected a member of the next, and is more deter mined than ever to live up to the reputation he made as the "watch dog of the -Treasury." When the republicans take the first step to wards an increase of extravagance by the introduction of a new tariff bill, at the extra session, that will furnish mor,e money to be spent, it is the purpose of Judge Holman to make a speech, in which, if he can not prevent extravagance, he will at least attempt to make it clear to the people that it exists under present expendituies; he will also endeavor to show that the expendd tures of the government should not exceed 350,000,000 a year, and that it they were reduced to that amount the present tariff would ii ounce an annual surplus of $100 000,000, which could be applied to the reduction of the bonded debt The Pacific railroad lobbyists are" so uneasy about the prospect of the funding bill to come up in the House. January 7th, that they have followed Representatives out of town in . order to talk to them in favor of the bill during the recess The opponents of the bill are also active, and the four days it will be under discussiou in the House are uot at all likely to be dull Auditor Hold's Brother Married. Lenoir Topic, 22d. Mr. E. F. Reid, auditor of the Chester & Lenoir lailroad, went to Louisburg last week" to be present at the marriage of his brother, Mr. J. L. Reid, agent of the Seaboard Air Line at Kittrell, N. C, to Miss Ada Alice Tucker, of Franklin county. The Neics and Observer says : ''"The marriage took place on the afternoon of Wednesday, the 1 i th, at the residence of the bride's father, Mr. W. E. Tucker, residing near Louisburg. A reception was held that night at Kittrell at the residence of the groom's mother. It is rarely that two young people set sail for the voyage of life more auspiciously. The bride is one of the most beautiful and estimable young women of Franklin county Mr. Reid is one of four brother's, all noted for special aptitude in railroad work. Than he, the S A.

WHITE HOU8B 8ANTA CXACS, fllad Tim fur Bath and Esther and Their Little Friends Washington Post, 26 th. r i . ... vnnsimas was celebrated in a joyous, homelike fashion at the White House. The children not only of the President but of the entire cabinet circle, held high carnival in the White House libraty. A noble fir tree stood in the center of the big semi circular room, so tall that it touched the lofty ceiling, and so thick and broad that it almost filled the large room. Until late in the night many willing hands had worked, under Vrs. Cleveland's direction, in beau tifying this Christmas tree, and as it stood yesterday morning, when the bright sun'of Christmas Day shone upon its tinsel and gifts and sparkled on the artificial snow and the pedant icicles and betrayed some pretty toy or knicknack con cealed in the thick foilage, it was a tree worthy of the White House. The children were early awake up, indeed, even before most 'of the servants and were soon gloat ing over the presents that lay piled uparound the foot of the tree and over the contents of their stock ings, which were generously filled by Santa Claus. After breakfast the visitors te gan to arrive children of the members of the cabinet, and the day's enjoyment was fairly begun. There were presents for each of the little ones from Mrs. Cleve land, and in turn most of the visi tors brought pretty tokens of re membrance for the Cleveland children. Esther and Ruth, who have gotten along nicely in the study of German, gave some pret ty recitations, and there were some Christmas stories told and some Christmas carols sung. The President and Mrs. Cleve land exchanged presents, as has Deen their practice ever since their marriage, and all of the em ployees of the White House re ceived some aDnrnnriat anH useful token of esteem.

Most of the passengers were miners and residents of mining towns. The wreck is regarded as almost cer tainly the work ol wreckers and accomplished by the removal of a rail on the middle span of the trestle. This derailed the train, which caused it to fall down the span and precipitated it into the river, 110 feet below. fo T8'-,16 it ia not unusual rjr famy ?bici to be away of Mr J V och WM, the experence fftW Schenck, editor of the Cad do lod.
