LiiiSGsi's ' WAGONS. '8 S3 e. "vi ov A NEEDED ENTER PISE. Notingf rom week to week the urgency of procuring new enter prises for Salisbury, the Sun notes the fact that a first class brick yard is badly needed here. A prominent contractor in the city tells the Sun that brick is hardly obtainable just now. He had to pay $8 or $10 per thousand for brick recently, buying out of town, and says the party, from whom they were purchased writes that no more orders can bo tilled for some time. A cheaper grade of brick even can not be had at present. As noted several days ago the work of building a handsome brick structure in Salisbury has been suspended because brick can not be procured. This is a condi tion that ought not exist here. There is an abundance of good clay for brick making near Salisbury that could be turned to account. The proper enterprise is only lacking. - It ought not cost much to es tablish the yard. Several thous and dollars would be a plenty. -With such amount sufficient ma chinery' could be purchased to equip an up-to-date brick 'yard. W e make the suggestion for the establishment of a brick manufac tory here in the interest of Salis bury. The investment would pay. FUSION NEXT ELECTION. -The Democrats of the State will not be at all surprised at being opposed by Populist-Republican fusion again next year.' The fol lowing from this morning's Char lotte Observer indicates what will probably transpire in this way: "The Federal Court in North Carolina under a Republican ad ministration has. always been a pretty good place to learn some thing about Republican politics, and the news developed during the term now in- session in Char lotte is confirmatory of reports which have been' current in the State for some little time fpast, to the effect that another Populist Kepublican fusion is on the boards for next vear. with Senator But ler as the candidate for Governor. An entente is understood to have been established between Senators Pritchard and Butler, and Pritch ard, the dominant factor in the Republican party of the State, is understood to be favorable to this programme. We should say that if the facts are as they are be lieved to be. Judge EwTart would be the happiest man in the State. Butler may keep up his front of opposition to the judge's confirma tion,, but it would not be human nature for him to carry much heart into the fight again if he is to look for PritcbaixTs help to make him Governor next year. We therefore look for a feeble op position and then for confirmation, and next year for the carrying out of the programme above outlined. The rank and file of the Republi can party is believed to be against it, but the machine is for it, and in the. Republican party of North Carolina it is the machine which does the work."

With Jerry Simpson selling fat cattle and Peffer cutting off his whiskers, the Richmond News says it looks as if Populism was doomed President McKinloy has ap pointed Governor Russell a mem ber of the committee on the na tional celebration of the establish ment of the seat of government in the District of Columbia. The matrimonial question has taken hold of the Postoffice De partment, due probably to the ex citement in- Congress over Rob erts. It has been decided that married post-office clerks, who are females, cannpt retain their places. The Philadelphia Ledger says there seems to be no longer any doubt that a gigantic trust, with a capital of 200,000,000,-' is being formed in this country for the purpose of contro ling the output of automobiles, ii es and bicycles. News' conns from Washington that ''expenses will he higher and more money wil; be needed." Of course. It costs more money to run an empire, pay lor Hie cost 01 harems, royally and war than a republic that neither practices slavery, polygamy or murder as a part of government, says an ex change. The Asheville Citizen says: Bryan stands for freedom, and the people know it; he stands for larger opportunity for those who have to make their own living: he stands for a better social system, a better industrial system which means that lie is radical in all his views, that he is not in favor of the conservatism that reigns in the cemeteries. That's why Bryan is popular. The Administration with char acteristic cowardice hopes that Aguinaldo will escape from the Philippines as his capture would embarrass the President. So much for the principle involved in the Philippine struggle, of which the Administration leaders have pra ted so extensively. If Aguinaldo will leave the island free for Mc Kinley and Olis to dominate, it is all those worthies desire. In the fiscal year 1S95-96, the War Department expended in round numbers $54,000,000, and the Navy Department $29,000,000. For the fiscal year 1899-1900, a year of rebellion and warfare, the appropriations amounted to $163, 000,000 for war and nearly $52, 000,000 for the navy. For the year 1900-01, which is expected to be a year of peace, the Secretary asks $190,000,000 for war and .$76,000,000 for the navy. Truly, the cost of empire is high. It is said that the striking miners of the Susquehanna j Canal Company will now go back to woit on a new wage scale. They have been out since August 5, and have lost in earnings $462,000. But, what has the company lost? Nothing, seeing that the strike kept down the supply and en abled the company to keep up the price of coal. That is the history of every coal strike. Brooklyn Citizen. The Washington Post says bat nobody can now go into any gallery, -in the House without a card from a member. It is said hat the order was adopted to keep he negroes out, and the House is Republican! It was a Republican Congress, that denied to the Dis trict of Columbia home rule in or der to get rid of negro rule, and now the Republican Congress m. r n wants be f rep from negroes in the galleries. It is only in the South, far from them, that Republicans insist upon negro rule and negro prominence. Raleigh News-Ob server. Two joint resolutions were in troduced in the House of Repre sentatives yesterday by Represent ative Williams, of Mississippi, which are the result of consulta tion among a number of Demo cratic leaders j in the House, and are understood to be expressive of their general position on the Phil ippines. The substance of the Democratic position is : Inde pendence to be granted to the Filipinos after they have estab lished a satisfactory system of self- government, but they must give us a coaling station and pay us back the $20,000,000 we paid the Queen of Spain; we to look after them for a period of ten years, bu they must pay the bill for troops and ships. The Emperor William's re peated declarations in' regard to the insufficiency of the navy o Germany have borne fruit in the form of a decision of the reprosen tatives of the Fedei ated States that the navy should be doubled. Last year a law was passed au thorizing a large increase of war ships, the construction of them to extend over six years, but it is now felt that six years will be too long to wait and there muat be an increaso of 100 per cent, in a very short time. Money will be bor rowed, if the Reichstag assents, so as to expedite the completion of the program. Germany at present ranks after France and Russia in number of ships, but is not content o occupy that position. Twice Sought Death. Durham, N.iC. Dec. 12. Grace Kestler, an inmate of a house of ill fame in Smoky Hollow, tried to end her wretched existence last evening by taking laudanum. Physicians and friends worked he roically over her and succeeded' in saving her life. She is said to be of one of the very best and most prominent families in North Caro lina. Brooding over her. past is what almost caused her to end her life by her own hands. It is the same old story of a beautiful, re fined young lady ruined by a young man, and through his broken pledges and perfidy, cast off, to lead a life of shame and degradation. Notwithstanding the life she has led, she is still beautiful and shows numerous traces of having been used to bet ters days. Previous to this attempt, she got hold of a pistol and would have shot herself but for the fact that the weapon was taken from her. Her sister, who is also an inmate of the house, was almost crazed with grief over the occur rence and wept incessantly. Sit a Baby on a Hot Stove Baltimore Sun, 13th: Mrs. Julia Brennan and her sister, Miss Kate Brady, were convicted in the Criminal Court yesterday of man slaughter for causing the death of Joseph Burns, 21 months old. They were each sentenced to seven years in the penitentiary, three years less than the maximum pen alty. It was alleged that the women seated the infant on a hot stove on the 2d of last October. burning him so badly that he died October 13. A Lover's Brief. A young lady was acting tem porarily as hostess and her time was much occupied. One of her admirers, a nervous and absent minded lover, perceived that this would be the case, and to facilitate matters' he determined to bring affairs to a point. He didn't get a chance. . "Afterward," says the object of his ill-starred devotion. "1 found this memorandum on the floor, where he had dropped it in his agitation. It read thus: "Mention rise in salary. Men tion loneliness.

Serious Shooting Affray Near Betha nia, Forsyth County. From yesterday's WInston4Sen tinel we get this: A serious shooting pcrape occurr ed yesterday afternoon about 1 o'clock, two miles west of Betha nia. Sam Ilauser, Joe Hauser and Rom. Finch are the names of the parties who were engaged in the trouble which resulted in Finch being dangerously, if not mortally wounded. ; Mr. Hauser married & sister of Mr. Finch, she being Jus second wife. Trouble has been existing for some time between Mrs. Hau ser and her husband's children by his first wife. Yesterday Joe Hau ser, who recently returned from Porto Rico, where he served in the United States army, got into trouble with his step-mother, and it is said slapped her. Mrs. Hau ser sent for her brother, Mr. Jb inch, who came to her rescue. It is claimed that Rom. hit Sam Hau ser, husband of his sister, on the side of the head, splitting his ear with a billet. The wound is pain- ul but not serious. Finch then turned on Jo, when the latter drew his pistol and began shoot ing. When the firino1 ceased it was discovered that Rom had six holes in him four in the body and two in the arm. One of the balls fired at Mr. Finch struck Mrs. Hauser in the thigh. She is confined to her bed but will recover. Joe Hauser, who did the shoot ing,, made his escape. Ofneers were out looking for him to-day. A preliminary trial was held this-morning at the home of Mr. Sam Hauser, where Mr. Finch is, in order to get the statements of Mrs. Hauser and her brother, as it is feared Mr. Finch will not ive. The latter is well known in the county. He was keeper of the county home for several years. It appears that before Joe Hau ser shot Finch, the latter shot one of Sam Hauser's ears off. While the father was gone after an of ficer, the son and Finch got into trouble, as told above. A Double Blessing. Few men can resist a bargain when they have the money to buy. A good advertisement daily re minds them of desirable bargains and of the merchant offering the same, and secures for the adver tiser the floating custom he would not otherwise receive. The adver tisement benefits him who buys and him who sells. Philadelphia Record.

The report of the State Treas urer for the fiscal year ending No vember 30th, giving'the receipts and disbursements of the treasury department, was made public yes terday. The disbursements exceeded the receipts by $54,316.61. The total receipts were $1,545,717.69, and the disbursements $1,600,033.30, as shown in the treasurer's report. The disbursements exceeded those during the year 1897 by over $300,000 and those of the year 1898 by over $350,000. The re ceipts this year, however show an almost corresponding increase. The disbursements in 1897 were $1,294,726.24, and in 1898 they amounted to $1,254,502.09. The receipts for 1897 were $1,308,691.- 81, and in 1898 amounted to $1, 337,552.40. The fees from the insurance de partment amount to $6,868.50. This is the amount Dr. Thompson, the Secretary of State, would have received had not the Legislature urned the fees into the State Treasury. A noticeable feature among the items is a decrease in the amount received from insurance companies. The Craig law is, in all probabili ty, responsible for this. The revenues derived from the tax on corporations were almost loubled last year. j The public printing cost $24,- 856.35. In 1897 it cost $20,497.- 96, and in 1898 it cost $8,810.26. Raleigh Post. Items of Interest to Housekeepers. Queen Victoria eats American pickles. Sugar burnt in gas flame is death to mice. Rice should be washed in hot water, not cold.

In the Federal Court at Raleigh last week the grand jury found a true bill against A. J. Marshall, a young lawyer of Wilmington, for counterfeiting. Marshall is under a bond of $5,000 and his case will probably be called for trial this week. Millions Given Away. It is certainly gratifying to the public to know of one concern in the land who are not afraid to be generous to the needy and suffer inor.

Before she could res cue it the flames had been inhaled. Concord Standard.
