RALEIGH FEBRUARY 16, 1891.
WILL N. C EXHIBIT AT CHICAGO?
The Colombian Exposition to be
held at Chicago is serving a wonder
ful purpose to show the growth of im
migration in public favor. The bills
pending In the various legislatures,
and the bills that have passed those
bodies indicate this growth asjnoth
lng else does. Texas is talking about
expending a million dollars in adver
tlslng the resources and attractions
of that State at Chicago in 1892. Illi
nois has a bill pending appropriating
Jbne million dollars for that Btate in
raddition to what the city of Chicago
.is expending. The California legisla
ture has appropriated $300,000 for the
; same purpose. Minnesota, New York,
Tenn. Wis. and Washington $250,000
each; Colorado, Indiana, Nebraska,
Pennsylvania $160,000, while a large
Jntnnber have appropriated smaller
". itajns.
' -M'drth Carolina should not be be
hind in this matter, indeed the whole
South more than any other section of
.this great nation, should make a lib
era! investment in advertising at the
Worlcfs Pair. There the great North
and West will be accessable and will
be attentive spectators to whatever
the South may have to show especial
ly. Let North Carolina make a lib
eral investment It will pay a hun
' 3red per cent.
An Iowa Court Decision.
An Iowa court has just rendered a
decision of a far reaching nature. An
ingenious youth tied a thread to a
nickel, dropped the nickel in a slot
.machine, got what he wanted, then,
withdrawing the nickel, repeated the
operation until he had made a clean
' sweep of the receptacle's contents.
, He, was charged with theft, but the
Judge held that the defendant had
'merely done what the inscription on
. the machine told him to do drop a
nickel in the slot and had kept on
doing it. Nothing was said about
-leaving the coin where it was dropped.
;The youth was therefore set free."
- We don't know how much law there
is in the Iowa court's decision, there
is certainly no equality in it. If the
fellow with the slot machine was tak
ing advantage of the bjy, that did
not justify the court in deciding the
case upon a technical construction of
the card on the machine, in direct vi
olation of the well understood mean
ingof the card. Two wrongs never
make a right.
Highway Murder.

The Old Definitions Are Now
Practically Meaningless.
Youth's Companion.
The words folio, quarto, octavo,
duodecimo and tbe like have almost,
If not quite, lost tfttebr original mean
lng. At first they hal reference only
to the number of leaves into which
the sheets used in making the books
were folded. Thus, if these sheets
were folded once, so as to form two
leaves or; four pages, the book was
called a folio; if the sheet were folded
twice, so as to form four leaves, the
took was called a quarto;if they were
folded four times, so as to form fight
leaves, the book was called an octavo
and so on.
But though, strictly and historical
ly, quarto, octavo, etc., have refer
ence solely to the manner of folding
the sheet, they are, as a matter of
common practice, used to specify the
size of books.
The practice of the publisher now
adays is first to determine what size
of page he wants. The sheet he uses
will be large or email, according to
the capacity of the press at his dis
posal. On that sheet he may print,
say, eight octavo pages, or he may
print thhty two; but he will call the
book an octavo, though by its folding
it should be called either a quarto or
a 16 mo.
In other words, the publisher calls
his book by the name of that one of
the old sizes to which it happens to
come nearest.
G0ERN0 FGORDOlT TAKEN IN
Pickpockets Clean Him Out
While lie Passes Down
Cortlandt Street to the
Ferry.
New York pickpockets are no re
specters of persons. All is fish that
comes to their net. The bigger the
fish the cleaner they pick his bones.
Governor Gordon.of Georgia, is the
latest big fish to stray into the net
that is cast for unwary strangers.
And he went in pocket, purse and
pennies. He was plucked clean.
Governor Gordon, when he left the
Astor House for the Pennsylvania
Railroad Depot in Jersey City on
Tuesday, had a ticket in his pocket
and a roll of bills amounting to $148.
He felt easy, therefore, in regard to
getting to Washington, and went
through Cortlandt street to the ferry
in a comfortable frame of mind." But
a change came over his feelings when
he put his hand into his pocket to
find his . ticket. It wasn't there.
Neither was the roll of bills. The
Governor was penniless in a foreign
land. He had met the enemy, and
the enemy had taken him in.
Governor Gordon wasn't left like
Robinson Crusoe, however. He found
a friend in Agent Williams at the
Pullman Car Company's office in the
depot, who gave him money to get
home with. The Governor departed,
vowing that he would keep a string
on his pocketbook the next time he
comes to New York.
TROUBLE IN SWITZERLAND.

Great anxiety is felt in Switzerland
concerning the decadence of the

The profits are dwindling down, as
the United States and England are
every 1 year 1 becoming more powerful
rivals in this field. The demand, too
