SUMMER DAYS IN MORGANTON Women Famed Throughout the South for Charming Hospitality. - THE DRIVESAMD THE SCENERY """ln Town-Some Impression! Made Upon m Charlotte "Observer" Cor respondent by Visit to Mortcanton. Mr. H. E. C. Bryant, traveling correspondent and soliciting agent of the Charlotte Observer, visited Morganton several days ago and writes to the Observer alnr th town and its surroundings as fol- iuwd: . This is the arala spasnn tv,;., beautiful mountain xown. Few towns in the South are better known than Morsranton anaimrm. iug place for young society people to gather durine the warm ronat he of every year. The homes of the oest people are open from. June 1st to October I 1st to visitine- joung ladies. It is an annual re ception, as it were, or in up-to-date terms, an "at home" lasting sev eral months. There are manv nlnnps in th State that draw larger ornwfi during the summer season: the mouutain resorts with grand hotels have their hundreds: the w a r Ar ing places catch droves of yonng uu oiu peopie; the coast, too, is a favored resort, but Morgauton stands alone in its nennlixr anri charming way as a fin-de siecle piace ot pleasure. There are no grand hotels and cafes to stop at, therefore no great expensive lay out, but the hospitality of the peo i goes iorwara i with leans and bounds to welcome the guests. The women of this histnrin. anri all but ancient summer resort, are famed throughout the South for their charming hospitality and su perior culture. It is hardly ex aggerating to Say that in this town oue fiuds more of the genuine good old ante-bell n m h rs nitulifp among the women especiallv than in any other town in the State. It is a source of great delight to the town to have maney visitors, and visitors from all parts of the South do go and drink freely of the fresh mountain air; of the cool, pure water, and. above all. the kindness of.the people. The season is now in full blast, and manv girls from Georgia, Florida,! Sooth Carolina, v irgiuia anu jxoiin Carolina are there. , 1 The reader may imagine droves of butterflies, in brilliant colors, or tairies, or birds, but there is noth ing tuat surpasses in beautv an afternoon in Morganton from now Until October. The streets are full of beauMful women. Some ride the wheel, others drive, and still others stroll for pleasure and ex ercise. In Dassinsr alone von rnn upon a bicycle party just out for a spin. ihere cau be nothing brighter than the girls, with their rosy cueess, in their np to date bicycle suits a jaunty cap, a short skirt and high laced shoes. Below the skirts pairs of trim, ankles and dainty feet catch the eve, as the happy party goes j by.- Picture in your imagination the sight. The lamps with colored lights gleam in the distance. A merry laugb and the jingle of the bells are heard as the party goes by. Girls are in the majority generally, and the boys are in great demand. The german club entertains the visitors several nights every week. There is life week in and week out. Morganton affords much beauti ful sceuery. The drives about the town are becoming famous. The scenery is grand along the way. Riverside is the i mosw charming drive to start with. From the post office you go up West Union street for several hundred yards. Along the way pretty homes are to be seen, with the lawns and side walks well shaded with large, healthy oaks aud elms. In front, or just above Mr. Johu H. Pear son's residence, which is one of the handsomest brick dwelling houses in the State, the drive turns to the right, and toward the Catawba river. Not far from, and the rear of this pretty bouse, with grassy lawns and pretty walks, is the house of Mr. E. Frizard. It is on a high hill aud is very handsome. It is between a bay and a straw color. Down the winding road you go, admiring the mountainous country in the distance, with its high peaks until you reach the bluff of the river. ! There the pret tiest farm aud most historic tree in the State are in full view. It is the "Quaker Meadows Farm", and the "Quaker Meadows Oak," where all the troops of. western North Carolina, east Tennessee, Georgia and Virginia, were mustered and begun. the march to King's Moun tain under Gens. James and Jos eph McDowell. . The old oak still stands in its historic majesty, aud is to day covered with rich, healthy foliage. For two miles the fertile bottom lands ate! black with the growing corn. It is especially fine this vear. Lightning bugs can be seen there in daylight; the corn is rich and black-looking. The iarm is still owned by the McDowell heirs, and is now managed by Mr. Man lev McDowell. The drive ex tends for several miles along the river and gees back into the main road, leading from West Union street, at the old homestead of Col. T. George Walton. The honse is on a hill, known as Creek Side and is built of brick ana piasterea over. It is now crumbling with age. Back by the old residence of Mr. Stanly Walton, another very old house, you complete the firm it and ero back down West TTnion afreet. i The drive through the Hospital vmnnrlfl nnnnot be 8Urna88ed in beauty. The roads are perfect. Mm and the grounds well kept; cov- Ahf, Zlttt fresb Sreen grasV, and shaded by pretty, neatly-tnmmed, small trees. From the depot the grounds, with the charming walks avauuge?' ,0 d ru0i?g.ua8t from tbe town the nve to the new iron bridge over the Catawba river is one of inter est. Between the river and Mor ganton the fields are fertile aud well adapted to small grain. Large crops of wheat are raised there every year. i f To Buikemont, eight miles from Morganton, is now becoming the most popular mountain di i ve The road was built by the-Morganton liana and Improvement Co. The distance to the foot of the moun tain is six miles and to the ton eight miles. Three up-to date sum iner houses have been built on the top of the mountain, and it is a most charming place to retire dnr iug the hnrninff days of Jq1 and August. FronT Burkeniout"" the scenery is grand looking north the valley, of the Catawba greets the eye- to the south the valleys of tne North and South Fork rivers and King's Mountain is seen in the distance. The road to the top passes through the bottom-lauds of Silver creek, where the soil is! so rich that it is said that tbe pump kin vines grow so fast that they wear the little nnmnWina ging them around.

The Story Why Mr. Bok Released All Claims to Royalty. j The Indianapolis Journal prints this interesting story concerning ex President Harrison's forthcom ing book: General - Harrison has just completed the revision of his articles which have appeared : in the Ladies1 Home Journal, making extended uotes and additions! to them. There is a little story j in connection with both articles and publication. When the arrange ment for the articles was made with General Harrison by Edward W. Bok, editor of tbe Ladies' Home Journal, tbe General was paid for them, with the understanding that when they weie put into book form the magazine was to share the royalties accruing therefrom. Mr. Bok, however, of his own accord, generously released General Har rison from paying him any royalty, tor tbe reason, as he states, that by the publication of the articles by General Harrison the subscrip tion list of his magazine was en larged mauy thousands. The profits to the Ladies'1 Home Journal were more than the publishers an ticipated, and in view of this Mr. Bok asks nothing further. Gen eral Harrison placed the disposi tion of his book in Mr. Bok's bands. The best offer came to tbe editor from tbe Scnbners, and to them S'-r. Bok gave tbe book for his distinguished contributor. General Harrison's revision of the book has just .been completed, and tbe volume will appear in the autumn. 1 ' j For OTer Fifty Tears - j Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Sykup has been nsedfor over fifty years by millions of moth ers for their children while teethinsr. with per fect snccess.

Wilmington Star. Y The CharlestonAVir and Cour icr, a few days ago, contained an editorial calling attention to and protesting against the imposition practiced upon newspapers in that State in the matter of gratuitous advertising. This is done in forms too numer ous to mention and to an extent that imposes an unreasonable and onerous burden on the newspapers, a burden that not only immensely reduces their income but adds largely to their expenses, for which they receive no equivalent whatever. The Neics and Courier, as an illustration, mentions the case of one educational institution which sent a little advertisement, auiuuuung 10 w, with gratuitous tunncr euougn to amount to ten times that if a reasonable charge was made for it, all of which was expected to be published without any compensation whatever. Commenting upon the article in the Kews and Coarier the Colum bia State, one of the suffering vic tims, emphasizes the protest against tbe abuses complained of, some of which it groups as follows: uAn institution or organization college, school, library, military company, anything ! proposes to raise funds for itself. . It engages a lecturer, theatrical troupe, any thing! and the profits of the per formance are to be divided. The newspapers are loaded with ad vance notices, they drum up the business and bring tb ciowls. The performers get their money, the concern for which the benefit is given gets its share, the owner of the hall or theatre, the musi ciaus, the printer of the pro giammes, get half price at least. 11 a. a iui, me newspapers whose space has been used so freely and whose iiu iias maae tue anair a success get nothing. We forgot they get thanks, sometimes. 'Way down at the end of tbe resolutions the press is sometimes thanked in a uuncn, with uo specifications. "An entertainment is given for charitable or . semi charitable purpose.! Those who take part are not professionals. Thev nothiug for their work. But they charge money for the entertain ment, aud the things needed and used except newspaper composi- uuu anu newspaper apace they pay for, out of the proceeds, if not full rates, at least cost price. There is no thought of cost price for a newspaper. "An association exists. It has worthy purposes, but not more worthy than the purposes of any good individual. It is conducted for mntual advantage, with inci dental advantage to those who are noi mt-moers. it literally loads the newspapers down with notices of itself and its work, with an anouncements of every entertain ment, every meeting, repeated so olten that they afflict the reader hundreds 01 columns of it in a year, worth thousands of dollars at ad vertising rates. Of course nothing is paid lor it 'twere sacr-Hepe tn ask money of people trying to be 1 s gooui out as an evidence that the papers are liked for what they I 1 . e . " nave aone iney are asked to fur nish free copies to the association. thus enabling 50 or 100 persons, some of whom might otherwise subscribe, to escape that neces sity." This puts the case well, and is about the size of it iu North Caro lina, too, where the papers are fearfully victimized bv this too general disposition to "ride a free uorse to aeatn." it 13 a habit tbat has grown with the Years, nntil every newspaper publisher, espe- 1 1 it 1 M - ciauy me puoiiBners ot aai.y pa pers, have just cause of complaiut and protest. Few of those who practice it seem to realize how un reasonable it is, what an imposi tion it is on the publisher, or tbat every line he prints costs him money aod that tbe expenses oi the paper must be met by the iu come of tbe paper, which is deeply cut into by the deadhead matter tbrost upon it. Not only that but the insertion of this kind of mat ter (which should go in strictly as advertising to be uaid for as other advertising) reduces the space for utiiri ujonri m wuivu IUO UUOIIC and the readers of tbe naner are more interested. Papers in cities north of us. and also some of, the Southern cities where newspapers are conducted on strictly business principles, as other enterprises are, do not suffer from this abuse, for there when people hand in matter in the na ture of an advertisement, in which tbe public eenerallv is not inter. ested, they are expected to pay for ig anu 11 aoesn'C go into the- paper unless it is paid for. That's the way it should be everywhere, and that is the view tbat should be taken of it by those who expect so mnch from the papers for nothing, and forget that newspapers are business enterprises which depend upon their receipts from advertis ing and subscription, just as tbe merchant does upon the goods he sells.. The merchant is not ex expected when he sells a dollar's worth of goods to throw in two dollar's worth for potbing, .and neither should the newspaper be expected to do it. Bucklen's Arnica Salve.

IN A CONSTANT THRMnir An ct of Its Last Legislators Tha Salav ' or Its Officers and the Carrestey la Vlch They Were Paid. Chicago Post. i The State of Fraukhn once fo inoed in area, if not in popula tion, an important part of tbe Union. It had its executive, legis lative aud judicial departments, exercised governmental functions, maintained a respectable militia, flourished apace, and tbeu, after a varied experience, completely dis appeared from the M sisterhood of States." ; .When the American Revolution broke out. what is now the State of Tennessee was an onofc-anired. sparsely settled territory. Id'1776 us luuaouants, under tbe leader ship of Capt. Sevier, petitioned tbe North Carolina Legislator tn tw annexed to that State, in order to A -I 1 A -a ' , couinunie their share towards uational independence. ! Am the expenses of the war bore heavily on - the Old North State," her legislature was only too; glad to divide tbe burden. The petition was granted, and what' is now Tennessee formed pait of North aT 1? ... . I uarouna until the close or tbe Revolution. As it had now become a source of fincnxn rather than help, tbe North Carolina Legisla ture iu June, 1784, without con sulting those most affected, ceded to the Federal government tbe whole annexfd territory under tbe uame of the District of Washing ton, provided the government should, within two years, signify its assent. ; The settlers, naturally objecting to such a wholesale disposition of themselves, rose up in wrath. The manner aud conditions of the ces sion were repugnant, and the peo ple felt that they bad not only heen tridd with bnt subjected to two years of anaschy and disorder. Calling a convention in 1 August, 17S4, they formed the State of Fraukliu. The North Carolina Legislature, realizing its error, hastened to undo its mistake and re-annexed the "Washington Dis trict' The inhabitants of Frank lin rejected offers for reconciliation, aud Capt. Sevier, though at first inclined to advise a retnrn of alle giance to North Carolina,' yielded to an overwhelming public senti ment and accepted the governship of the new State. He was inaug urated at Watauga, March 1,1785. Some sort of order was now estab lished, at tbe least for a time. A court was created, the militia thoroughly reorganized, and peace effected with Indians who bad been carrying on a destructive j warfare for a quarter or a century.! But peace did not long prevail. Complications arose which kept the yoang State of Franklin iu a con staut turmoil. Congress still as serted jurisdiction. A reaction, stimulated by disappointed office seekers, ensued among those who ha J been most clamorous for the new State. Jealousy of Sevier's success animated bis rivals, who heuceforth sought to make his life a burden. Tbe population was divided into the Franklin and the North Carolina factions. Elections were held and appointments made unxler the laws or both s States. Two sets of officers claimed author ity, each nullifying tbe acta of tbe other. One factiou would steal the public records from tbe other, only to be treated in like manner in turn. The courts were in a chaotic condition. Wills could not be proved, titles perfected,or jus tice administered. No tax,es were paid. Marriages performed by officials of oue faction were not recognized by the other, j Still the determined young State fought for its life. It exercised even Federal power and author ized the coinage of specie, though its cbief medium of exchange con tinued to be the skins of wild ani mals. Finally, emissaries weie sent to the North Caroliua Legis lature to make overtuies of peace. The addicts of Franklin's repre sentative was a model of eloqueuce, fervid with the rhetoric of the Rev olutionary era. But it fell upon unheeding ears. No recognition would be made of tbe rebeliona State, though North Carolina had once cut her off without her con sent. , The last-session of the Franklin Legislature met in September, 1787. Tbat there was then no in tention of hurrendering is evident from oue of the acts of the Legis lature, which has been preserved and which is interesting aa an ex ample of primitive financiering. The law is as follows: ) 44 Be it enacted by tbe General Assembly of the State of Franklin, and it is hereby enacted by tha anthoritv of the same ; That fmm tbe first dav of Jannarv. 17&L the. salaries of tbe officers of this Com monwealtb be as follows, to-wit : uUis excellency, tbe governor, per annum. 1.000 deer skins.

They are going to have no end of worry over finance in nlf. u,er alorw- lr is an open secret that there i a serious difference or opinion in the cabineton the ad viaability of committing tbe ad ministration and the party to the retirement or the greenbacks and fory 00te- Secretary Gage a the personal representative of the bankers and ultra gold men. will make a bard fight to commit the administration and party to the retirement of those notes, al though he knows as well as any body tbat UO Snch lerriatsti ... be put through during tbe life of the present Congress, because of the silter majority fn the Senate Proof that Mr. McKinley is afraid of this question may be found in the careful manner in which he avoided committing himaeir i w:. special message to Congress ask- aumuriiy 10 appoint a cur rency commission. JJr. McKiuley has been averything ou tbe money question. He voted for th coinage ol silver in 1877, and as ..io uo ruiy nrst UongreM, he voted and .oke Tor tbe Wmdom silver bill and the Sherman substi tute therefor. He didn't w.n gold standard platform or last year's republican convention. It uoowmi ii ne knows what he wants now. He prefers to trim and to wait, but Secretary Gage intends, unless be is prevented, to submit to Congress in his annual report the outlines of a' bill tbat would perpetuate tbe single gold standard, not because he thinks it will pass, but because be wishes to commit tbe administration and the republican party. . MIe.mVf.r80f lhe ministration still in V ashiugtoo, are somewhat worried over tbe results of tbe new tariff as far as they have become apparent. They did not like the shutting down or ti. Englaud cotton mills, and some of mem scui aa iar as to say tbat tbe mill owners should bare been will ing to keep on running their mills, even if they lost money, to help along tbe republican party. Thev like even less the story of increased prices for almost rer-t v.in tn labor that comes from every di rection. Speakin? of thi nt.u of the matter a prominent Phili- ucipuia uusiness man, now in Washington, said : "I bear tbat a general rise iu prices is lo take place, and tbat people ma V nrenare to pay more for their dry goods, clothing, boots and shoes, and all articles of household necessity. lr this i a rtfviM. L. - . . uiu iu w so, i predict tremendous discontent and dis satisfaction among tbe people. In flush times there wonld be no com plaint, but when commodities rise in value and tbe volume of money is not increased, the common peo ple are bound to suffer, especially when, as now, there is no chance of an advance in wages. The up shot of the matter will be a revolt against the political party tbat passed tbe law which made dearer an tuings tne consumer is bouad to buy, -without doing anything ito increase tbe ability or tbe con sumer to purchase the necessaries of life. If the republican party hasn't a very rough row to hoe, then I am utterly without ability as a prophet." Some of the civil service cranks are doing so ranch shouting over Mr. McKinley's extension- or tbe civil service law to a few of the small custom bouse employees, that they have overlooked his exemp tion from those rules of numerous important places in the customs and Iuternal Revenue service. His amendments to tbe rnles, pro hibiting the discharge of govern ment employees, except for cause aud only upon written charges, has, or course, been :.rmK ccived in Washington, wb re so many iersous are peculiarly in terested in a life teuore or oflice, but if tbe count rv rti.lnrJ... tl.. idea I will miss my guess. With a uie tenure orothce, there will uec esaarily come in a few Years a civil pension list. Both ide'as are un democratic and uu American. creating as they do a privileged class. If it bad not heen r,.r social influences or Washington, there wonld never have heen ant- civil service law. and when the same influences were brought to bear oq Mr. Cleveland to sec a re a life tenure for those in office, be positively refused to make tbe amendment tbat Mr. McKinley has Senator Gorman seldom talks ror publication, but without violat ing confidence. 1 can aav that he is preparing to make the fight of ma me io restore Maryland,to tbe democratic column, and tbat be is aosointeiy confident tbat be will succeed and be re-elected to the Senate.
