M. Quad on North CaroLna.
From the Detroit Free Press.
North Carolina has held to her
traditions longer than lahy other
State in the South, but she is at
last prepared to wheel into line
and welcome the new era. From
one end of the State to the other
the towns are 'alive and booming,
and there is new and better feeling
among all classes of people.
And the Old North State is a
grand domain rich in its broad
acres, rich in its timbers and min
erals, rich iii its water powers and
waterways, and bbssed with a
thousand advantages denied to
other sections. She - is to-day
working gold mines in 31 counties
and silver mines in five others.
She in i n es a u d iu a rke'ts se ve n -
Aljr
hts of the mica dsed m the
.
jUuittMl States. She supplies this
; country with the emery of com-
i merce.
She has 112 varieties of native
timber which are usable and mark
etable. She lias . 146 varieties or
minerals. , She has water' power
estimated at 3,000,000 horse power.
She can grow any grass, fruit or
vegitable knpwu to the United
States. She has au honest, con
servative; administration, a low
death rate, a high standard of
morality, and in mo State in the
Union is the law more respected
or more closely obeyed. She has
the coal and iron and timber to
invite manufacturers the climate
and soil which promise the best
reward to the farmer.
Manufacturers caii secure cheap
iron and coal here, and tin of "all
sorts is abundant and easy ot ac
cess. The railroad facilities, are
good, and the people will hold out
their hands to all who come.
When we of the North refer to
the South. the negro always conies
in;o the (iiiestiou. RU statu and
iii luiuie are regarded by us as a
great proMem. We are much
worried over it at times, it is a
matter which should he and can
be left with the South to take care
t
of. The Southern negro is

stance to the, Southerner.' lie
knows more about him in a day
than we do in a yeai. He fiasgot
more excuses for his failings "than
any Northern man dare urge. lie
treats him more kindly than we do
the same race at theNortli.
But I wanted to say that the
colored people of North Carolina
are deserving of praise over those
of utility other Southern States
They are a a rule intelligent, re1

aims and ambitions, and the Imsi
nes.s of various localities. has.. -depended
upon them to a great ex
tent. -
North Carolina can and does
j4iow as riue a grape as California
or any country in Europe. Indeed,
had her peojile alter the war given
ever thing t tmt fruits the go-by
she would t6-day be the wealthiest
State in the South.

A Trip to Africa.
Do you want to be carried to
Africa a ud see how the terrible
blave trade is couducted in that
country! how whole villages are
laid waste, and all the inhabitants
manacled and marched off to the

or too old to be of service? We

Badicalism in the South. ,
From the State Chronicle.
Mi. A. S. Willis, a very efficient
white postal clerk ou the A. & N.
C. RiRn has been discharged and
a ne$ro;natMed llaudolph has been
appointed in hi, place. This
makts three such removals and
appointments in one week in North
CaroHtra' Jrt before the elec
tion white men were told that ne
groes would not be appointed to
office in the South.
lloeky Mount aud Halifax are
two of the best towns in the State.
They are not large, but no better
people live anywhere. President
Harrison has appointed a negro
woman postmaster at Halifax and
a negro man postmaster at Rocky
Mount. He is thus pursuing his
policy of winning over the South
to Radicalism).' We tender our
sympathy to our Halifax and
Rocky Mount friends. They are
thus practically shown what Rad
ical rule in the South really means.
The Chronicle has al ays said it
meant this sort of thing.

Very good! But the farmers of
Montgomery have heads as level

trust bagging. It is a common
thing to see bales of cotton on this
market Wrapped in old bed sheets,

Washington Letter. ;
Washington, April 15.
"Sunset" Cox, the ever-smiling
Representative from Sew York,
was met coming out of the White
House by your correspondent,and
asked what in the duce he was
doing in that gang of place-hunters.
"Oh, I simply called to say
good bye to my old friend Benja
min Harrison,as I am afraid these
fellows may worry him to death
in tueir mau nunc ior omce oeiore
I return to WTashington." Then
as Mr. Cox was leaving he added:
I feel well; very much better than

of political death with the rest of
the Democrats, and uow I am off
on a lecturing tour through Indi

folks smile you know, while I
gather in a little money. I trust
that I shall get no more eggs than
I pay for."
Mr. Cannady, the sergeant-at-
arms of the United States Senate,
aud a good John Sherman Bepub
lican,is charged by Senator Jones,
of Nevada, ex-Senator Mahone
and Warner Miller, aud Repre
sentative West, of New Tork,with
swindling and forgery m connec
tion with his management of the
Nort Carolina oil and creosote
company located at Wilmington,
N. C. It is also stated that Can
nady is indebted to other Senators
to the amount of 80,000 or more
for borrowed money. With the
usual audacity of men of his kind
Cannady says that when the case
is settled it will have no effect up
on his "personal integrity."
The Republicans have always
beeu notorious for their williDg
ness to make use at all times of
United States vessels for private
pleasure parties and being. out ,6f
power for four years and without
a precedent for that length of
time has not changed them a par
ticle in this respect. On Saturday
afternoon Assistant Secretary of
the Treasury Tichner took a party
of friends from here to Baltimore,
where they got aboard the U. S.
Revenue Cutter McLean and start
ed ou a trip to Chesapeake Bay
which lasted from Sunday morn
ing to Monday morning. Another
government vessel,the light house
tender, Holly,,has been lying at
the wharf here, waiting for three
days to carry President . Harrison
on a pleasure trip down the Poto
mac. This looks like a rather
early revival of the old abuses.
By summer half a dozen vessels
will be needed for the various
members of the administration
for their families and friends,
and the people will foot the bill.
Senator John Sherman has just
proved himself to be a "bigger"
mau with the administration than
Representatives McKiuley and
Benjamin Butterworth combined.
Ohio had two candidates for the
position of sixth auditor of the
treasury. One was backed by Sen
ator Sherman and the other by
Messrs.McKinley and Butterworth
The Sherman man, Mr. Coulter,
has just been appointed.
Laud Commissioner Stockslager
fears there will be trouble in Okla
homa. He says that only about
10,000 homesteads can be entered
under the President's proclama
tion, and he has every reason to
believe that at Wst 100,000 per
sons will enter the country within
thirty days from its opening next
Monday.
The new administration is ma
king a record for itself on the
pension question. It is going fast
er than the most radical had any
idea that it would a short time
ago, and no man can at this time
forsee the end. Assistant Secre
tary Bnssey, of the interior de
partment, before whom appeals
from the decisioRS of the com mis-
i .. . m
siuuei "f ymauaa
to outdo the "Corporal" in his 'peeds, Warranty Deeds and Masis
constrnction of the law as applied 313 BkaJw fw sl at tfcfc cc.
to pensions, it is estimated that
the decisions of the late commis
sioner) Gen. Black, which Bussey
has already reversed will cost the
government more than $1,000,000.
He should change bis name to
"Bnster." The "Corporal," not to
be outdone by his superior officer,
made an order last week that will
cost more than $50,000 a year.
The following is the order: "When
ever a pensioner is disabled in a
hand or foot in a degree entitling
him tn liOi. rx montb mirier tb fit.
of March 3, 1883, such pensioner
shall by reason of that fact be en
titled to the rate of 30 a month
under the act of August 4, 1886,"
Nearly 800 pensioners get an in
crease of $72 a year by this order,
and arrears from August 4, 1886.

The South a Kevelation.
Fredrick Taylor, a banker of
New York, who accompanied
Messrs. Cooper, Hewitt, and In-
man on their recent trip South,
gives his impression of that sec
tion to the Manufacturer Record.
Mr. Taylor states that the South
was a revelation to him. "It
seemed to me," says Mr. Taylor
"that we travelled through a con
tinuous and unbroken strain of
what has been aptly termed. 'The
Music of Progress7 the whir of
the spiudle, the buzz of the saw,
the roar of . the furnace, and the
throb of the locomotive." To the
young men of the South Mr. Tay
lor accords high praise for the
work which they are doing, and
to the "eager, earnest, restless,
driving erergy which seems to
fill them " "The South," says Mr.
Taylor, "to my mind is only on the
threshold of its boom. It has ev
erywhere possible advantage
everything that God can give.
The new South has been built up
. .... . - -. j t
oy tne maomuaoie energy hhu ujr

people themselves." And he adds:
"To any young man to-day of
pluck and grit, with the world
before him and his fortune to
make, I should say, 'go South,
young man; go South!"
