FAIR AND CARNIVAL NEXT VIS A It Tire Stst?' Agricultural Society closes its v:r!: for the last year of the Nine teenth voatury with the greatest sue-ct-ss wllhin Its history. The officers ami managers have labored, hut their labors h iv" borne abundant fruit. The Fair of 1!00 will be Ions renienibercxl as a record-breaker. On Th'.jisiay night preparations for the r.cxt year were inaugurated. It was universally regretted that Mr. McXaxuee tonLl not continue as president, but as universally gratifying that so successful an :igik-ultur:st and well equipped gen tleman in every respect as General Cox could be put in the position. With this change, and with . the other officers Messrs. Pogue and Benson who have served stably nd efficiently, re-elected, the Society is prepared for another record-breaker nex year. The TVst legs to suggest to the offi cers and .society that next year, being free from a political campaign and other disturbing agencies, preparations be made for at least a two weeks exposi tion and carnival. Mr. E. 1. McKis eick, of Asheville, who inaugurated and conducted so successfully the gun contest this week, suggested to us that next year at least two weeks should be fixed upon, and that a grand street oarnical should. e included in the programme, and to 4his each county in the 'State should be specially invited to participate, the best three exhibits to be awarded good prizes.. We "believe with 01 r. McKi.3ick that a great tate exposition lastiag at least two weeks, should be held next year, and that every effort should be directed to making it complete in every particular and detail. The Tost suggests this matter not only to the society, the people of Raleigh, but the people of the sState. Let us all form a combination before" the legislature tnsv. combinations illegal, to have a S'.at-? exposition here next year that rriU be a State affair in full, in t&ct, in tircumsrance and detail. the Eighth district. He had a fall a few days ago while on "his canvass, injuring his knee-cap, and it is feared ha will not be -able to continue his canvass. Col onel Pearson is not ' only an eloquent speaker, but an .enthusiastic supporter of Bryan and Stevenson and Buxton, and his unfortunate ' retirement will bo a loss indeed to the canvass. "We hope he may soon be entirely himself again. That able minister and true friend, Rev. Robert Strange, rector of St. James (Episcopal) Church, Wilmington, is in demand now. . St. Paul's Church of Richmond has recently extended him a call to the rectorship of that church, and now Trinity Church. of Columbia, South Carolina, has made an earnest ap peal for his services. In every sense, as man and minister, he deserves the esteem in which hu is held, not only by those of his own faith, but by all who know him. The old State, can ill afford to lose such workers, but if our neigh bors need him more than ourselves we suppose we should yield him for the greater good he mny do. We are sincerely gratified that the creat strike in Pennsylvania, involving not only the daily living of more than one hundred thousand human beings, but the comfort of very many more, has been declared off and 'the men returned to work. And we as sincerelr hope that this settlement may result In bring ing all parties immediately concerned operator and laborer into such amica ble relations that only harmony and a common and just sympathy can obtain in future, by which all can hereafter co-operate to the mutual good and satis faction of each. It is needless to say these conflicts are unjustifiable; the public may not always be sufficiently informed as to the truth of the real con ditions as to justify any such conclusion. That they are deplorable and hurtful all can and do know. We can only wish that a greater community of interest be tween employer and employee in all de partments of endeavor could be estab lished and maintained, to the end that all shall work together in a spirit of mutual interest. In the discussion of such matters there is no place for sickly sentimentality or demagoguoism or chievous outside m grave and important fort and good citizenshix of him who labors as well as the success and pros perity of induslr: '1 energy and social and material development. It is a prob lem not, to be trifled with. jmagoguoism or tuis leddling. They tare t, involving the corn- Mr. A. Jm Fields at Yonngirllls (Youngsville Record.) Mi. Alex J. Fiold. Democratic speak er on the National issues, was here last Thursday evening. He made a very fair, honest and logical address. His recital of the evils that would attend imperialism, trusts, etc.,- showed a care ful si -i'iy en his part and are worthy of consideration. The Open Door (Detroit Journal.) The Empress Dowager trembled with ra "e. 'Vhut that door!" she shrieked, be stowing a terrible-look upon the Chris tian powers. "Don't you, see you're letting in about a million flies V" " Her majestj's .sthennous resistance to the inevitable is thus shown to proceed upon the promptings of her basic femin inity,' and is hereupon a mystery r.o longer. IVIournlnsr (Detroit Journal.) Man's inhumanity to man was making countless, millions mourn good and plen ty. This was the situation when the crepe trust was incorporated in New Jersey. Hereupon only the extremely well-to do could afford to mourn, in the strict sense of She term. This fable admonishes us that indus trial evolution touches the sentimental side of life, after all. DIGEST OF SUPREME COURT DECISIONS WHITTED v. FUQTJAY. New trial. Any knowledge of a fact, the truth of which may be ascertained by a proper inquiry, is notice to the party and will deprive him of equities arising for th want of such aotice James vs. Gaitfca iA j.t OOO. Specific performance of a contract for the sale of land, though an equitable re lief, will be enforced as a matter of course where a valid letral contract is established, devoid of fraud and unfair advantage. (i I'omeroy Ea. Jur., sec. 1402; 121 N.-Ct 231.) BAKER v. OAiRTER. Action dis missed. Where, in an action against the wife and son of a deceased debtor to have his deed declared void as to creditors, while the cause is pending upon defendant's demurrer upon the ground that no cause of action was shown in the complaint, the administrator of deceased debtor and other of his creditors are made plain tiffs and the pleadings are reformed so as to turn the action into "a creditor s bill," and the original plaintiff takes a non-uit and witndraws from tae ac tion: Held that the Superior Court had no jurisdiction and the action is dis missed. The creditor's remedy wraS by special proceeding before the clerk. (92 N. C, 455: 64 N. C, 17(3; 74 N. C, 620; 05 N. C, 50.) ; CAiNTWEDL v. HERRING. Affirmed. The Superior Court has inherent dis cretionary power to aliow amendment io pleadings or to allow tuem to be n;ea at anv time, unless prohibited bv statute. or unless vested rights are interfered with. xax . uikxii uii, iici uuii In an action aeainst a mortgage for wrongful sale aud conversion of mort sraecd nronertv. the defendant nas a right to prove upon th trial that the plaintiff mortgagor delivered the proper ty to the defendant mortgagee s attorney to be sold and the proceeds .applied to the mortgage debt. COBB v. PERRY. New trial. When there is more than a scintilla of evidence about which reasonable minds- may differ the qtiestion should be submitted to the mry' In- this action to have defendant de clared a trustee for the benefit of plain tiffs, plaintiffs alleging that the land was conveyed to defendant to pay off incuni brance's thereon and then defendant to divide the land between plaintiffs, the trial ruled that upon the evidence Qf plaintiffs thev could not recover. Th court held that-the evidence, to the ef fect that defendant had stated his pur pose to be to disincumber the land and divide it among the plaintiffs: that he had promised one of the plaintiffs to give hot- "a right to her interest", and had afterwards promised this plaintiff, to buy her a home, did not warrant the trial judge in taking the case from the jury aud a new trial is awarded. BELL ' v. COMMISSIONERS OF JOHNSTON COUNTY. No error. Counties being a branch of tiie State government, can be sued only in causes authorized by Mature, and aii action cannot be maintained against the county commissioners to recover the penalty prescribed bv section 711 of The Cal? for failure to establish hospitals nndr section 707 (22) of The Code. (120 N.C, 90S; OS N. C, 9; 90 N. C, 437.) PORTER v. WHITE. Error. In ih!s action to have a deed, absolute on its face, declared a mortgage, the trinl judge committed error in excidiug defendant's evidrm to the eft nf. tin" t'le iktd was not intended by '.h par ties to be a mortgage; that the redemp tion clause had not been omitted bv ig norance, mistake, etc.. and that "plaintiff occupied the land as defendant's tenant. Mr. Bryan bearded the lion in his den rare enough Thursday, when he rolled np his sleeves and pitched into trusts at Trenton, New Jersey. There is no scare to Bryan. We are an receipt of the first number l he Youngsville Record, a new jour iU.?tic candidate just established at the living town of Youngsville. in the Vnd old county of Franklin, by Messrs. L II. Aldred and Dr. I. G. Riddick. It s neatly gotten up, filled with good natter, and we are sure will deserve mccess. It has The Post's best wishes. All the bank looters who have not Wn captured will no doubt come in md surrender themselves in disgust rhen they compare the magnificent work if the New 1'ork teller with their own neasly performance in the same line. This last exploiter evidently acted upon he priucfple, both in his Sunday school tevotions and bank performances, that hat which . is. worth doing .at all Is vorth doing well. And so far he has iroron as great a success as a hider a bank looter. The Looting In I'ekln (Frederick Palmer in Collier's.) Loot! The word has assumed new meaning. lx)0t! Pekin was a carnival of it. Ixot! Once I thought that looting was wicked. Since I have on a grave and gentle missionary, who had lon'.j ago put the world's little vanity aside, struggling under the weight of silks and curios, I do not know what to think.. He who talks loudest, in the mess against looting may fall the surest vic tim. I have in mind a silhouette of a friend and his donkey going out of .the Chen Men gate. My friend had his pockets full of ivory chopsticks and carved jade. There was a mandarin's ivory chain around his neck. Four' or five hand-painted fans were stuck in his bolt. In either hand he carried a great bundle of silk. The waddling donkey looked as if he had passed through an Oriental shop, and everything he came in contact with had stuck to him. I recalled- the correct attitude of this same correspondent in the Philippines in such matters, and even his boastings about it. "I know I have fallen," he said. "I couldn't help falling. I am glad I fell. I can't carry a tenth of it home, but still I shall keep on acquiring until somebody puts me in jail. The ances- Ltors of all of us originally were brig ands, von Know. I como of a line of hon est clergymen, professors and Boston merchants. The brigand in our blood hs been suppressed for many, main- years. Pekin has brought the brigand age of generations out in rae. . I think I should like to become a hichwayman. I am afraid that I may, Tra la! I am in a hurry. There are a big bronze Isuddha, a gilt dragon and an inlaid door lark here, and I want to get my courier to help me to carry them to camp." Tli JIMpin- Hand j.ne tnicago mngree jaTcn ' is re ported as turning out this year a fine crop of potatoes, turnips, beets and oth er vegetables, giving the- diligent work ers, who have taken advantage of its opportunities, a good supply of vegeta bles for the winter. The garden was "established four years ago and last spring there was a lively demand for space to be cultivate;! by. the poor who were willing to .work. 'Many .women, who had to support families woro mvnn little plot of land, and, with the assist ance of their children, under the direc tion of a skilled gardner, they have, during intervals between busy days, and by getting up early and Vorking m the evening, raised potatoes enough to last during the cold weather, and some have made extra money by sell ing green produce. One hundred and fifty-two families had traets planted. ITIason and. the Poet (New York Tribune.) , Secretary John A. Mason was busy the other afternoon at the Democratic Stat headquarters in the St.! Jnmes Building, when he was interrupted by Abraham Lincoln Myers, the handsome and discreet doortender. - .J "tientleman named Jones frm Chica go wants to see Mr. Mason about some campaign poetry," said Myers.' rr "Certainly most certainly!"'" ejacu lated Mr. Mason. "We've b?en waiting for the last six weeks for Jones of Chi cago to make his appearance with a satchel fuil of Chicago poetry. Show Jones of Chicago right in.'' ''They've been .singing some hot stuff are wefil on the way to practical exter mination. It is a poor policy, if the rights and interests of later generation! deserve any consideration. One view of it which is of very general interest just now on account of the recent expe riences of large regions of the country with protracted and costly drouths; is presented anew by Dr. Felix L. Os waldln Health Culture, who regards it as strange that none of the religions of the world gives, a word of warning against the "folly" of forest destruc tion, although the process has "turned 5,000,000 square miles of once fertile regions Into deserts," and has made a third of the eastern continent unfit for human habitation. i - . - :, - Founded 1842. frr "T"V v Rer.
