I The Sun wishes to all of its pat rons a happy New Year. The year closing to-day has been one of great moment to the citizens of this country. A war has been waged against Spain by the United States, resulting in the conquest of Cuba and the Philippine Islands. Prosperity has visited ihis coun try during the year. Salisbury and Rowan county have had a reasonable share of goods things. Peace and plenty has reigned throughout the State and nation. "While there have been disasters and reverses the year has scarcely been marked with as great dis tresses as during some of the pre vious years. The State has been redeemed and reclaimed by the Democratic party. Democracy - - - is triumphant in North Carolina. Business has been generally good with our merchants. The city has been improved,; Quite a num ber of elegant reidences and sev eral new business houses have been erected during the year. Altogether Salisbury and the State are in better condition than last year. The farmers in the county have been signally success ful. The mechanics1 have inost of the time had work. 'There have been few idlers. The year has, indeed, been more or lesd. a goodly one. Before another issue of the Sun the new year will have been usher ed upon the country. We "trust that it may be a still more prosperous year. All of the citizens should join in endeavoring to make it such. It shoujd ordi narily be better. The outlook is certainly fair. j We bespeak success for Salis bury. I ! ' - They are now referring , to him as "Lieutenant Hobson of the Merrismack." Disband armies in peace, for the devil still some mischief finds for their idle, hands to do, says the Norfolk Pilot-Virginian. I The Toronto World openly announces a fear that the next move of the United States expan sionists will be in? the direction jof Canada. It is said that when Gen. Gar cia died he left his widow and daughter in poverty, and patriotic Cubans are now raising a fund for their benefit. I Torrey E. Wardner, editor of a Boston paper, has been sentenced to 30 days in jail because, said the court, he made comments on a case which, had they been seen by the jury, might have affected the ver dict. Senator Daniel, of Virginia is now enroute to7 Cuba, where he will spend a short time in obtain ing personal information concern ing the Antilles, with the view j of using the information in a speech which he is to make in the nate. The Senator is opposed, to the ex pansion policy, and it is under stood that he will take a strong stand in opposing the proposition when it comes up. j The quartermaster-general of thb aimv will besrin next month thb work of brinarino back to the United States. the bodies of Amer ican Soldiers who died in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines. h-lt is expected that General Miller, who has been sent with an American force to Ilolio, Philip- pipe Jslands, will take prompt steps to secure control ' of that" place from the, insurgents. " h Two petitions for disarma ment and arbitration, one from the organized Protestant churches of the world and the other from, the Pah-Presbyterian Alliance, were presented to President McKinley this week. -The Georgia & Alabama stock holders guaranteed yesterday an issue of $1,000,000 of bonds for the construction of terminals at Savannah, Ga. The terminals will be built at a cost of over $2,000,- 000. h The Asheville Citizen says it seems that we have annexed a gen uine revolution down in the Phil ippines which ..will, - in all proba bility, necessitate the using of some oi tne excellent nemp grown I A.I 1- . I thle re sooner than was expected. I i ine uuoan delegation, to tne Ubited States has prepared a petfj tion appealing to all natives ot tne is and - to remember that iaG 1 :i fo ugnt tor independence, not an nexation; and urging them to stand steadfast for the former. The petition pdints out the industry, labdl and energies of Cubans as an answer.to accusations that Cubans are unfit for self-government, and scbut the idea that annexation w tuld be best for Cubans, Graceful and Timely. Asheville Ciiizen. It is not only well to remem bar the pit from whence you have been digged, but it is equallly im portant to remember who did the .digging. This conceded, it is easy to say tnat the Democratic State execu tive committee did a graceful, a timely, and a very proper thing in Raleigh on Tuesday night when it p ssed the following resolution: 'Resolved, That we, the State Democratic Executive Committee oi j North Carolina, hereby ex pi ess our thanks to all the voters on this State and especially to for mer Republicans and Poxulists who voted with us in the last elec- tion for White . i i . .

' Vast Cost of the Army. - Secretary Alsrer estimates that it will cost this republic $166,000-, 000 a year to support a standing army of 100,000 men.

Already we are paying more for pensions than any European army cos to main tain.
