The Legislature just elected in this StHte will elect a lj. B. &tn: ator to fill the place so Ions and so well filled by Senator Ransom. Much has been said about Minis ter Jarvis in this connection but he seems to have dropped out of the race, and two others are now mentioned, and by "a special dis patch from Raleigh," one to the Washington Post names Col. A. M. Waddell of Wilmiugton and the other is to the New York World naming Cpt. 3. B. AlX ander. Both are good men who may some day be called to serVe. it- ni l. a; ; A .t.; .iilC-i me oiaie accoruiag w tntur sum ties and deserts, but we respect fully submit at this time we spe cially iteed Ransom in the Senate. If the result of the 6th had been different and it were a time when we could afford to reward soma other of our many worthy co-la borers in the cause of honest gov ernment, it would not seem so suicidal to talk of a change, but the condition of tlungs after tlie 4th of March next, to our mind forbids suc,h a thought. With a Republican President said to be unfriendly to the South, and both bnuiches of Congress, with oue third of our own tielegation in the House, of the same joHtic8 and prejudices,"' we need, more than ever, the services of Senator Ran som and no amount of jersonal preferences or factional prejudices should deprive the State and the South Of such services. -'.Ransom .served six years in the Senate with .-President-elect Renj. Har rison and, as ii;sual, made him his persmal friend. r lie i iM'rson the most. iKijuilar man tliat the Senate has held since the war, aud is on friendly relations with every prominent Republican who may be a cabinet probability with the incomniug administration. He will have the ear of President Harrison as no other Democrat will have it, and will have more inliuence for the good of our State, and the South than auy other five or ten Southern meu. His expe rieuce and knowledge of Senatori al usage, and of parliamentary law will be more serviceable to us in the impending and inevitable crisis thau the untried wisdom of any new, and perhaps more im petuous, man we can send and we trust no nnwise experiment will be risked by our Legisture. The Presidential Vote of Virginia to be Contested. As the resnlt of a confer ence between Gen. Mahone and Senator Quay, recently held, it is announced that proceed ings will be begun in the Virginia State Courts and theU. S. Circuit Court for Virginia, attacking the right of the Democratic electors of that State to cast their votes for President in the electoral col lege. The certificates of the elec tors will not be issued until after the meeting of the State Board of Canvassers in Richmond next Monday, and the contemplated proceedings will be then immedi ately instituted. It will be in the nature of a petition of writ or quo warranto, to compel the electors receiving the certificates to show by what right they assume to serve as such. One of the jieti tiouers will be Mr. Lamb, of Nor folk, the other probably the Re publica candidate for elector from the Richmond district. It is said by the Republican attorney in the case that the petition for a writ will be backed up by such a show ing of fraud in the count of ballots cast on. the sixth inst. as will sat isfy any one that the Republican candidates for electors received at the polls a plurality. Inasmuch a only a very short time will in tervene between tne beginning of procedings aud the meeting of the electoral college, and. as the electors ioluiug certiflcatoa can - We Need Raosom. nqbe prevented from exercising the fusctions of their office by in junction, it is nior than probable tBat Cleveland will receive the vote of th Old Dominion for Presidsnfc Both Quay and Mahone deny any desire for mere party advantage, but say that it is of prime Importance to develop and prove election frauds m the South with a view, in case of failure in hese efforts in the courts, to arousji; 4Qohgress to the necesity of eiiacting laws te secure a true count Of votes cast for presidential elecf of nfmerobers of Congress. New StatwC It seems certain that it will be the porejr, of,.; the Republicans to mill; several nw States out of the NorthVestern Territories.This would give the Republicans the Senate (or many years "tb come, and make it impossible solid South atuAr2sre-r " iTork, Kew Jersey, and 1 Cortnccticttfc tv elect a President. This makes the proposition one of great interest aud moment to the wnol$ country. In view of this ttic roiiowmg aoout the pro posed bew iStates from the 2 c w Yorlz-Jierfld is interesting: The Democrats in the new House contend that Dakota shonld be admitted as a whole. The Re publicans Want tci make two States of 'it by ijividing the Territory into Nortliern and Southern Da kota. Kaeh is supposed to be Republican, VtAsh i n gton Terri -tory, next in importance, lias now a Democratic delegate. Montana consecutively sent a Democrat for many Oohj;resses. Jew Mexico has 'vjuietllts political renresehta' . .vMion) have Wyoming, Arizona Representative Herman, of Ore gon, Republican, who is th only Congressman from' that big State, is anxiously awaiting the conven ing of the next Congress to urge the admission of all Territories as States. In reply to the question as to what the Republicans were going to do when they again as sumed control of the House aud Presidency, Mr. Herman replied: One of the first things they will do will be to make several new States. They will admit Dakota, probably as two States, thus giv ing us lour more Senators and perhaps six new Representatives. Montana, too, is ready for admis sion, jand there we will have two more Senators and a Representa tive. Then Washington Territory, which, with Oregon, has gone Republican; wants to come in,aud has enough population for it; and there we get still another pair of Senators, with one and perhaps two Representatives. This , will makefile -party so strong that that there can be nothing to fear from the solid South lor years to come. . .; DAKOTA AND WASHINGTON TER RITORIES. i Representative Bay ne, Repub lican, of Pennsylvania, stated that it was his opinion that the next Congress would admit Dakota aud Washington Territories to State hood. " Will the Republicans divide Dakota and admit it as two States one to represent Northern Da kota and the other Southern Da kota!" Mr. Bay ue was asked. "It is large enough for two States, I presume." "How about Montana and New MexicoF 44 TTell, Washington Territory has a very large population. It is, however, somewhat doubtful about the . propriety of admitting Montana and New Mexico, as also Utah." . - 1 DEMOCRATIC VIEW. Representative Allen, Democrat of Mis8issippi,8aid that he thought the Republicans woul admit every Territory that would strengthen their party. . 'Do you think titer will divide i Dakota i?ito two and ad mU both ' atatesV I think they will divide it and let it in as two 8tates.n Representative Thompson, Re publican, of Ohio, when asked if it was the purpose of the Repub licans in the next Congress to ad mit Dakota and other Territories, replied that undobtedly the two Dakotas and TTashington would be brought in as full fledged States; that they had the requisite population and ought to be ad mitted, and it would be done when the Repu bl icaus were in control. He stated further that the admis sion of these Territories would ob viate the necessity of coercion legislation applicable to the South ern States. He said that the ac cession of these States, coupled with the return of West Virginia to the Republican ranks, would add great strength to the Repub lican party. "About what would be the rep resentation from , the three new States!'' "Those three Territories when admitted will give us six Senators and six Representatives or more. That will be twelve electoral votes at leasf, and I have no doubt that old Virginia in 1892 will be as re liable a Republican State as Ohio, and I have no doubt that Tennes see and North Carolina will follow suit." , . Who Reads Advertisements? From the Charlotte Chronicle. Business men who have not much experience as advertisers, think that few persons read the advertisements in newspapers. They are mistaken. Next to the local news, the advertisements OHt g"erally read parts of a paper, Wno reads ad vet tisementsf Ev erybody does. You do. Yoar wife does. Your children do. Go home to night and talk aboutsome item in the ten cent column of this is sue of the (JkronicUy and see if some member of your family does not S3y: i4 Why I saw that in the paper this moruingl" And so, of every other advertisement, espe-4 cially those that are changed often and are most interestiugly written. The advertisements of a paper are the best news that it publish es and the news that the people are most anxious to read where they can buy what they need, and get the most for their money. Official Vote of South Carolina. The State Board of Canvassers has at last co Deluded the canvass of all the &tate and Federal re turns and has declared the result, which is the election of the entire Democratic electoral ticket by the following vote: Clevelan d 65,825, Harrison 13,740; Democratic ma jority 52,085. The total vote is 11 932 less than four years ago. The Democratic majority is 4,054 great, er. The Democratic Congressmen are elected in the seven districts of the State, the contest in the seventh and black districts having been decided by the State board in favor of Col. Wm. Elliott, pres ent incumbent, who is elected by a vote of 8,358 to 7,003 for Miller, his colored competitor. The Eleetorial Vote of New York. The Electoral vote in New York State as canvassed by the State Board of Canvassers is as follows: Highest and lowest number of votes received by any elector being given, electoral Republican high est 650,337, lowest 648,759; Dem ocratic highest 635,965, lowest 535,800. Prohibition highest 30, 231; lowest 30,222; Socialist high est 2,068, lowest 2,022; Union La bor, highest 626, lowest 587. La bor electors at large, Redpath 2, 668; Wilder 2,447. The official vote of Alabama for President shows that Cleveland received 117,310, and Harrison 57,197. u : C3AHertt? in Um Jorum ax Jf yovi wul to recb tX2 pp?e of A trdw?. State Hews Items. A silk factory has been locate;.! at Wadesboro. , A Beaufort county lad killed s 200-ponnd bear last week. Salisbury has organized a knit ting factory with a capital of $12, 500.

A Salisbury barkeeper "smashed a beer bottle over a patron's heail and a piece of the glass struck a negro in the eye, passing through the bail and destroying the sight. We learn there are five candi dates in the field for the position of postmaster in this city. The number, of course, will greatly in crease between this and the 4th of March. Gretnshoro Workman. Mr. McDonald, the Democratic candidate for the House in Cabar rus, was elected by 1269 majority, and his brother, who was the Re publican candidate for the Senate in Mecklenburg, was defeated by the same number of votes. Radical candidates for the post mastership in this city, says the Asheville Citizen, art ? getttngL la be as thick as mosquitoes on the J ersey coast, and Democrats are asked to sign petitions with all the sang froid a Republican can as sume: and that is illimitable. How It Was Fought. From the Boston Advertiser. ; The campaign of 1888 will be re membered as the first that was ever fought on a scientific basis. The tariff question is a question of political economy, and political econony is a science. And it is a matter to be very specially noted, a matter for congratulation and philosophical reflection, that mill ions of American people have been engaged much of the time during several months in studying the laws of supply and demand, the purchasing power of wages, the nature of commercial exchange, the balance of trade, the relations of capital and labor, the true na ture of money and other elements which enter into that complex whole which we call business. Who is Your Best Friend ? Your stomach, of course. Why? Becanse if it is out of order you are one of the most miserable creatures living. Give it a fair, honorable chance and see if it is not the best friend yon have in the end. Don't smoke in the morning. Don't drink in the morning. If you must smoke and drink wait until your stomach is through with breakfast. You can drink more and smoke more in the evening and it will tell on yon less. If your food ferments and does not digest right, if you are troubled with heartburn, dizziness of the head, coming up of the food after eating, biliousness, indiges tion, or any other trouble of tho stomach, yon had best use Green's August Flower, as no person can use it without immediate relief. Nearly a million votes were cast in Pennsylvania for President. Harrison's plurality is 79,571, and majority over all 54,058. For the first time in twenty-one years a Democeat has been elected to a 8tate office in Iowa a rail road commissioner being elected by 5,000 majority out of a total vote of 400,000. Cleveland's plurality in'Conhpc ticut is 336, according to the offi cial canvass. In Virginia his in a jority is 1535.
