INDIANA AND ILLINOIS.
Indiana and Illinois are sister
States. They stand side by side

same agricultural productions
Their people are homogeneous and
Influences that control the one af
fect the other. For many years
they have been usually allied with
different political parties, Indiana
being Democrat ic and Illinois Rc
publican. It now seems probable
that thev will stand together in the
approaching election.
In the earlv part ot this cam
paign Indiana was comment!
claimed by the Republicans. Iu
deod General Harrison was nomi
nated because of his supposed
ability to carry Indiana. Republi
can newspapers anil campaigD
orators still claim the State, but it
is evident, to those accustomed to
party tactics, tbat the effort, now
being made in Indiana, is to pre
vent the route oi the party and
ave as many Republican members
of Congress as possible. A little
while ago there was great cheering
in the Republican camp over re
ported gains in western Indiana,
but an investigation of the facts
transferred the cheering from the
Republican to the Democratic
camp. Indiana will not orjly vote
for 1 leveland and Tburman, but
she will give toil or three more
Congressmen to the Demoeratic
party.
Rut we have said that it is
probable that Illinois will stand by
Indiana in the Democratic column.
Such are the present indications.
Tbe Democrats hae the advantage
of the Republicans 1 u the guber
natorial contest . General Rainier,
the Democratic nominee for Gov
ernor, is the magnetic statesman of
Illinois. For a long time he lias
leen i ecognized as the purest and

A very remarkable illustration of
the spirit which animates the South
and of the enterprise of the people
of this section has been given in
the manner in which "Trusts" are
handled. Wo believe that only
two ''Trusts'' of any special im

business interests centering exclu

practically defeated by the deter

ganized in other sections we cannot
recall the defeat of any single one
of note.
The American Cotton Oil Trust,
an offshoot ot the great Standard
Oil Co., was organized to monopo
lize the cottonseed oil business.
Before the public was aware of
what was being done, this "Trust"
had secured the control of almost
every first class cotton oil mill in
the South, and its monopoly
seemed complete. Like the Stan

FR.WH AM) MEANNESS.
Attention has been called to tbe
fraud perpetrated on the Postal
Repartment, by the Republican
Campaign Committee, iu sending
out eampaign documents under the
franks of Republican Senators.
Previous to last night none of
this precious literature had reached
this office, but it is now flowing at
a rate that threatens a delnge.
The paper before us, at this
moment, is a circular entitled Rsti
mates and Appropriation?.
The estimates are made by the
Republican Campaign Committee,
and are accurately misleading. The
truth is told in detail so as to make
an immense lie in the aggregate.
The Postal Department is swindled
by joining these estimates to ex
tracts from the Congressional Rec
ord, in the form of a circular, and
sending thousands and thousands
of them all over the country free of
jiostarje under the franks of Repub
lican Senators and Representa
tives. This circular must be examined
to be appreciated. A man has no
idea ot what a polecat is by its
looks. The circular contains about
one hundred and twenty live lines
in priut. It begins with an esti
mate running through nine lines,
and then comes an extract, of
seven lines, from the speech of
William R. Allison, a Republican
Senator from Iowa Then we have
thnty-thne lines of estimates fol
lowed by sis lines from a speech of
Hon. W, S. Ilolman ot Indiana,
twenty live lines from a speech ol
Hon. James O'Donnell, of Michi
gan , twenty-nine iines from a speech
of Republican Senator Plumb and
twenty eight lines from a speech of
Republican Senator Allison.
Not a whole speech is published

are put together, the whole re-
Simbling a "crazy qnilt."

Tuckahoe 24th, Dogwood 25th, ( ceSsfnl fight against the first great
"Trust" which threatened Southern
prosperity.
The jute bagging Trust was 60
skillfully planned and so badly
managed that not until the cotton
crop was beginning to move was
its existence realized. Its organ
izers felt safe. They knew that the
cotton must be bagged promptly
and sent to market, and they
boasted of what they were going to
do in the way of advancing prices.
To attempt to fight this '-Trust" by
bringing out a substitute for jute
bagging in time for the present
crop was apparently worse than
useless. It would only lead to de
lay in shipping cotton and to still
higher prices for bagging. Planters
were advised to submit with the
best grace possible this year in
hopes that before another season
rolled around a remedy for the evil
would have been found. This ad
vice, however, was not taken. In
stead of that the whole South was
bent upon delending the TruBt"
at the very start, and many have
been the devices brought out to
accomplish it. Practically the
'Trust" is dead. Substitutes even
better than jute have been found.
As already known to our readers
the Lane Mills, of New Orleans,
and the Acme Manufacturing Co.
have produced bagging, one from
low grade cotton and one from pine
straw, which meet all the require
ments and which are destined to
supplant jute bagging
Night and day the mills will run
to meet the demand for this bag
ging, and thus from what seemed

We beg to make enquiry through
your paper of the Postmasters on
the route from here to Newport
why it is that our mail matter, con
sistmg of letters, are delayed be-
een here and Newport! 11ns is
the third time within three weeks
tbat the mail bags have come here
without a single letter, and once
the letters going from New Rerne
were delayed also : and we have
been informed tbat the fault is in
some Postmaster on the route from
here to Newport. Now we don't
wish to cast any reflection upon
any one, but we do hope the Post
masters on the route will be a little
more careful and see that the
letters are put in the mail bags at

Onslow Tefichers In Counsel.
Maysville, N. C, Oct. 4, ?88
The teachers of Onslow county
met at Jacksonville on Saturday
September 29tb, and organized
Teachers' Council for the benefit of
the white teaahersof Onslow conn
ty. The Council was called to order
by Mr. II. M. Koonce, when we
proceeded to elect the officers

to meet in the court house at Jack

A. W. Coofer, Secretary.
To the Teachersof Onslotc County :
We earnestly request you to come
together with us in the interest of
the educational cause of Onslow
county. And as things, become
noble by association, there is no
better way for men to improve
their usefulness than to come to
gether and confer with each other,
thereby getting new ideas. And
teaching is no exception to the
rule, for, surely if any profession
needs careful attention and im
provement, teaching should have
the full and honest share. As we
all know that however marked may
ba the 6kul of the statesman, ora
tor, lord, or sage, it must have its
hrst training, care, and attention
in the ordinary school room. Then
how important is the work of the
teacher, who has charge of laying
an example for the pupil's first
consideration. How careful, then
the teacher should be to inform
himself, that he may perform this
important duty well, for early im
pressions are lasting ones ! And
the best way to do this is to come
together and consider the different
modes ol teaching. By doing this,
alijmight reduce the different modes
of teaching to a single unit,
thus relievieg the embarrassment
both to teachers and pupils, when
the teachers are changed. Then
when a teacher takes charge of a
class, he will know that the last
teacher taught on the same princi
pie that he is to pursue; thus there
will not be a portion of ihe term
lost trying to get his pupils started
on a different plan. This may be
done by systemizing the modes of
teaching, which we cannot do with
out your presence in our council.
We know that Onslow county is
behind badly in her educational
work, but with a sufficient amount
of energy, used in the proper way,
she is not beyond redemption, and
1 by the proper course, old Onslow
i can yet come to the front and stand
' side by side with her sister counties,
in an educational capacity, clothed
