Statcsville, N. a, Mar. -7, 1901 THE NEW .EIGHTH -DISTRICT. j The bill dividiog the State into ten Congressional districtsias pass ed both houses of the Legislature and is .now the law. The- bill as p assed has been printed in full in this paper. It is practically the bill introduced some .time ago by Representative Watts, of this coun ty, with a few changes. IredeH is now a part of the eighth Congres sional district There are eleven counties in this district, namely: Ashe, Alleghany, Alexander, Cald well, Cabarrus, -Iredell, Rowan, Stanly, Surry, Watauga and Wilkes. The district is a fairly compact one, and seems to us to be very well ar ranged. - There has been considera ble objection to the district by pur Rowan neighbors, who fear that it will be Republican, alleging that it gave McKinley 731 majority in 1900 These figures are correct but McKin ley's majority was the result not only of an increased Republican vote over the vote for candidates for Con gress but also from the fact that 923 Democrats who voted forKluttz and Buxton in these counties did cot vote for Bryan: The Democratic vote for isrvan in the eleven coun ties was 16,356, the Republican vot for McKinley 17.0S7. The vote for the Democratic candidates for Con gress was 17,279; for Republican candidates, including Shuford's v ote), 16,479, Democratic majority 800. Again Aycock's majority over A dams, was 1,159. We take it that the 800 majority for the Democratic .candidates for Congress is the best e videcce cf the character of the dis trict, and this shows it to be nomi naliy Democratic, though by a small maj ori ty. It is certainly not fair to base the calculation on the Bryan McKinley vote. ;When the ignorao necro vote is eliminated, as it wil' be in 1902. this district should b Democratic by a safe and comforta ble majority. Iredell Democrats will rejoice t; see that under the new arrangement of State Senatorial districts Iredei constitutes the thirtieth district. L 1S91 this county was placed wit Yadkin and Davie and since ther except at two elections, the Dtmr c rats have been engaged in1 a fruir less effort to-overcome the Republi can majoritiesof Yadkin and Davie lJoreafter we elect our own senator. Yudkin and Wilkes are put together and Davie is in a district with Ro wan and Cabarrus. A Spectacular Dlcplayf 40,000 Peo ple Strive to Seethe Prsldnt. Washington, Dispatch, 4. William McKinley, a second time, is President of the United States. He was ushered into that office to day, in a city ablaze with moro and finer decorations than ever have graced the holidiy-loving national capital, whose streets today re sounded to the tread of more march ing soldiers and sailors than ever have partieipaed in alike function, and had as witnesses to the cere monies a vast multitude, who cheer ed frequently whenever he or his ice ptesidential colleague was visi ble. Tnere has been better weatner on inauguration day, and there has been much worse than that wnich attended to day's ceremonies. The worst of the wet weather un ortunatelv came just as the Presi dent was being inducted into office m the east front of the capitol, be- ore 40,000 people. But the air was mild and pleasant and the day ended with dry weather. liarneld was in augurated in a storm; Harrison in a cold rain which deluged the city from dawn till dark, and Cleveland took he oath at his secoud inaugural be fore 10,000 cheering-psople in a fierce gale with the snow beating down up on his bare head. To dav s down pour again brought forward the agi tation of April 30 as the time for uture inaugurations. i On Pennsylvania avenue the crowd surged up and down both sides, over flowed the terraced stands and bal conies, walled in the windows and fringed the roofs. Washington had decked herself out as never before. Only a comparatively insignificant portion of tbe vast multitude saw anything of the actual inauguration ceremonies at the capitol. The brilliant and impressive scene in the senate wnen tne vice .rresi dent-elect was inducted into office was reserved for a few hundreds The assemblage in the Senate felt an electric thrill as the Vice President elect was announced. The greatest curiosity existed to see this man who has been so much in the public eye during recent years, and instantly all eyes were turned toward mm He halted a moment, drew himself up until he seemed a foot taller and marched down the aisle erect and with the bearing of a soldier. The President, the last to enter, got an even more enthusiastic reception lie never loosed better and never seemed mor graceful and at ease. It was just after 1 o'clock President McKinley stepped out up on the east portico. A great cheer went up that re-echoed until th huge stand .fairly trembled. The President bowed in acknowledg ment. With him was Chief Justice fuller. Through the lines of Senators and officials, all standing to do him hon or, the President proceeded to the central pavilion and at the railing faced the vr st assemblage, again and it-aiu bowing before the tramenllous chorus from the 40,000 throats. A hush fell upon the assemblage a che President aud the Cnief Justic Tobacco Its Growth and Ue. Atlanta Journal. Although the United States pro duce more tobacco, than any other country, its consumption -of tobacco is smaller here than anywhere else in the world except in France. This statement will suprise most of our readers, the general opinion being that the American is temost inveterate and the most extravagant eonsumer of tobacco. The normal annual production of tobacco in the United States is 923,- 000,000 pounds. Only 285,00O,u0i) pounds are produced annually in int . .,- ftf T , Tk Z - ran legislature.

Lx Senator Fields, of AUes-hanv. who is one of the wisest men in Wes tern North Carolina.isays the people of his section are greatly pleased with the spirit manifested in ar ranging the Congressional districts. The suggestion of a rock-ribbed Re publican district, he says, would, if carried out, have, resulted in great loss to the i Democratic party in hi.- section of the State.- He there for thinks it was wise to make every di-trict Democratic, even if two or three are debatable. He says the Re-publican vote in 1900 was high water mark for that party and that when the white men, who1 were de ceived by Republican lies about the amendment, see that they can vote, the Democrats will make gains. Senator Fields has served three term3 m the Senate and his are entitled to great wefght." views representative Watts Is Duly .Thank ful. News and Observer, 5th, Yesterday at noon Marion But ler's term as1 United States Senator and George White's (colored) term as Representative in Congress ex pi red. The people of the State have waited impatiently and watched anx iously for this to come to pass, and now that it has they are rejoicing with exceeding great joy. Even the Legislature, now in session took a sort of semi-official notice of the passing of these two "states men." As the clock in the hall of the House chimed the hour of noon, Mr. H atts of Iredell, very properly a ro?e and said: "Mr. Speaker: I rise to a ques tion of the highest privilege. At this moment Marion Butler,' the renegade, is no longer Senator from North Carolina. Geo. H. White, the insolent negro, who has so long misrepresented the proud people of NonhCarolina in the Congress of the United States, has retired from office forever. We have a white man's government in every part of the old State, and from this good Lour no negro will again disgrace 1 voe oia orate mtneeouncu chambers ' of the nation. For these mercies. I thank God." 'i liili to Secure Four Months' Schools The General Assembly of Nor-i Carolina do enact: oacuor. 1. mat mere snau be and tbere is hereby appropriated, annu iily, out cf any funds in the State rreasurr not otherwise appropriat v-d, an amount which, together with trie scaool funds, apportioned by he several counties, shall be suffi tient to maintain and operate every public school for at least-four months every year Sec. 2.

The United otates proauce aimosi as much tobacco as all the rest of the world, It is estimated that 4ol, 000,000 persons or considerable mote than one third of the human race, are hab itual users of tobacco and the average vearlv consumption is lour ana a half pounds for each person. rhe Dutch are the greatest tobac- co users, the average ror tiouana oe- ng more than six and a half pounds. Belgium four and a half pounds; Ar gentina four and a third pounds; rurkey two and a half pounds: 1 he United States two and two-third pounds, and in France two pounds. Though the average per capita consumption of tobacco is lower among our people than any other, taking the entire population, we still use more tobacco in its various forms than any other because there are so many more tobacco users here. The demand for tobacco is increas ing in every country where it is used at all and it is becoming a more im portant crop in this country every year. ' The Vice Presidency. Some IiSsons irom tha Past. Constitution. Once more we have a vice presi dent whose privilege it will be to keep a silent, if not a wise, tongue in his head, and who serves himself and his country best by being heard from as little as possible. Only once has the vice president an opportunity for a hearing, and it is well, even then, to be a trifle so phomone, and not to put on an ap pearance of too much earnestness From being a very popular con gressman, acnuyisr uonax passed into the shade as the addendum to the first administration of Grant, and iilassachusetts lost a fine senator thrdugh the eclipse of Henry Wilson by Grant in his second admin is tra tion. Mr. Hayes had a vice president whom the world has forgotten, while an assassin save Chester A. Arthur a chance by the remoyal of Garfield The greatest of modern holders of vice president office, Thomas A Hnedricks, went down to his grave wounded by the slights placed upon him, while President Harrison's running mate did not permit the office to interfere with his ordinary avocation. Then Lcatne Fice Presi dent Stevenson, who warned by the experience of Mr. Hendricks coatin eJ himself to the social pleasures of Qis slate and is still in good condi tiou. Mr. McKinley brought with him to Washington a man unknown in puoiic life, who ventured in his inaugural of four years ago - to threaten tbe courtesy of the senate It did not take the . senate long to couvince Mr. Hobart that the best thing he could do would be to retire to the tea party function, while a friendly Pro Tempore would keep the chamber in order, Mr. Koosevett, an earnest man, with a lecture bureau turn of mind. has muen to say about "world pow ers and lite work and other ex pressions familiar to the staije Mr. Koosevelt should now com pose himself for a goodtime and trust to the senate for the safe running of that body.

Referring to politics, he says "It becomes our party, as patriots 1 TV . . .1 ana democrats, to strengthen our party organization, to unite all ele ments opposition to radicalism, to organize for future contests upon right lines, so as to make national victory again possible, to avoid re criminations and to subordinate al) selfish and personal consideration in the exhibition of a widespread national and party patriotism.

A report from New York says that j 11- is rumorea there that Lieutenant Richmond P. Hobson, of Merrimac fame, is engaged tomarry Miss Griga by, of that city. The rumor adds that Hobson 's parent's are opposed to the match. Judge Hobson, the lieutenant's father, was asked today at Greens boro for a statement about the mat ter. He said that he knew nothing of the reported engagement, and irT timated that if it was true there would be no objections from Hob son's parents, as the. lieutenant is old enough to manage his own af fairs. Another member of the Hobson family expUiued that Lieutesaut Hobson is no.v a gue-.t at the Grigs by home in New York by invitation, and that he and the youog lady are very good friends but nothing 'ij known of any engagement.
