stand forever as a tribute to the
fidelity aud devotion of the South

memorials have been dedicated to

" spr&titadt to the humble aud faith--ful

V the Texaa State Fair, the greatest.
V. in oar opinion, of his many wonder
t"tal public addresseees on "The
. .'. Soath and her Problems," Henry
Grady, of Georgia, paid a most
, i eloquent tribute to the loyalty of
. the Southern negro, as follows:
v "History has no parallel to the
V-i" faith kept by the negro in the South
- . daring tne war. Often five hundred
- v?i" negroes to a single white man, and
' yet through these dusky throngs,
: . the women and children walked in
- safety, and the unprotected homes
' . ' -". rested in peace. Unmarshalled, the
black battalions moved patiently to
. -.' ; the fields in the morning to feed the
Armies their idleness would have
V starred, and at night gathered an
, xiously at the big house to hear the
J; V";?.; news from "marster' though con
- scions that his victory made their
. -j.-y chains enduring. Everywhere bum
- ' ble and kindly; the body giianl of
' , the helpless; the rough companion
; ; of the little ones; the observant
r . friends; the silent sentry in his low--ly
cabin, the shrewd counsellor. And
-; vwhen the dead come home a mourn
f er . at the open grave. A thousand
7 ; torches would have disbanded every
. Sootheni army, but not one was
lighted.
.-''V-When the master going to a war
, V?in which slavery was involved id
' . to liis slave, leave my home and
'X x loTed . ones in your charge," the
: tenderness between man and master
- stood disclosed. And when the slave
. -;.V held that charge sacred through
' . . storm and temptation, he gave new
'meaning to faith and loyalty. I re
joice that when freedom came to
bin after years of waiting it was all
the sweeter because the black hands
from which the sbackels fell were
stainless of a single crime against
the hopeless ones confided to his
care.'
... 'Mr. Grady was right when he said
that "history has no parallel to the
faith kept by tho negro in the South
during the wa" and we are glad
that an old Confederate soldier of
South Carolina who fought for
Southern independence in the war
between the States even as
his fathers fought for
American independence in
the War of the Revolution we are
raid that he will have the honorable
distinction of being the first to pay
this great tribute to the Southern
slave. All honor to Samuel E.
White, of Fort Mill ! His example
should be an inspiration to the peo
ple of the South, who should esteem
it a sacred duty to build at the old
Confederate Capital a menorial
column to the Southern negro in
the war. This monument should
no tbe the grateful work of one man,
bat it should be built by the whole
people of the South, and bo built
ander the direct auspices of South
ern women and children. Charles;

E.x-tiov. Louittt said to-day:
" In my opinion the explosion
was caused by dynamite instead of
the boiler. I think it was done to
kill Mr. Gumry. You know he is
superintendent of construction at
the Capitol building and lately dis
charged a number of men. Those
men have been hoard to threaten

Senator Daniels oresided with great

Kx-Sciiator darvis said : 'Among

oiie-tifth of the Democrats in the ag

counties the proportion may be as
one in twenty; in others as one in
two. I was told by intelligent citi
zt-ns of Rowan that Mr. Walter Mur

against silver shows that he knows
nothing about the sentiment of the

wan is for free silver. In some of
tiie counties in the Charlotte region
there is more of the gold feeling
than elsewhere.
.North Carolina as a whole is a
strong free silver State, and as you
well know is going to remain so.
We are mt in a condition there, if
we felt like it, to abate an iota of
zeal for free coinage. North Caro
lina Democrats were in the last elec
tiun a minority of the others of the
State. A party that is so situated if
it is wise seeks to strengthen, not
weaken, itself. To adopt a gold
standard on an ambiguous platform
and nominate acandnate for Presi

is to invite the loss of votes in North
Carolina when we have none to lose
We shall have hard work but we

Representative Lockhait was eon

In response to a ouestion he said:

I was mice the only palace 111 North
Carolina. Magnilicent as was this
colonial structure it was soon to fall
j into decay and aimost oblivion.
Sure it is t hat the people of the prov
ince were not in favor of building
so elegant a heme for their govern
or: for the legislature was with the
greatest difficulty moved to pass the
bills necessary for its erection. Pol
icy, perseverance and covert threats,
with the assistance of lady Tryon
and the unusual and powerful attrac
tions of her sister, Miss Esther
Wake, at dinner and "church par
ty' finally succeeded in securing,
from a people scarcely able to meet
the ordinary expense of government,
the sum of fifteen thousand
pounds.
'The heavy and almost intolerable
j taxation involved in this caused the
I people at large to look upon the
1 Royal Palace rather as an unjust
I burden than as a monument of love
and pride to their chief executor.
Many of the political leaders of that
day claimed that all the existing
evils in the colony were caused bv
the appropriations for the " Palace''
and for its maintainance: and that
RT.
tn
Tryon merely gratified his vanity,
and made an elegant monument to
his taste and political influence, at
the expense of the colony, and also
of his personal honor in changing
the plan of a province house to that
of a palace worthy the residence of a
prince of the blood.
From the Colonial Record we
learn that the "Palace" was first
mentioned in lTnC, and that during
the same year a bill passed the Leg
islature appropriating some five
thousand pounds for its erection.
In January of the following year
Tryon writes the Earl of Shelburne
saying: "The i.ct for erecting an
edifice for the Governor and his
successor was carried by a great
majority in the Assembly. The
money appropriated for the house
and offices will be short of the ex
pense of erecting them. The pub
lic have entrusted this building to
my care and management, and I
have contracted with Mr. Hawks to
superintend this work. He agrees
to finish it in three years from the
laying of the first brick which will
be" in May next. I shall send as
soon as possible, the plan and eleva
tion of this house for His Majesty's
approbation.'''
John Hawks, the contractor above
referred to, was a Moor from Malta,
who had been educated in England.
His salary was six hundred dollars
per year.
The contract was made in 1807,
brick and material were imported
from England, and in the same
year the work was begun.
Is v hard work ana intrigue eacn
succeeding Legislature was induced
to make appropriations, until, in
the year, 1?7", Tryon writes to Lord
Hillsboro: "The palace being in
such forwardness as to afford me a
residence, I am just removed into it
from Brunswick. The whole
structure, I am in expectation, will
be completed by next Christmas. I
still wish furniture mav be obtained
and precedent cease to be a bar to so
well directed a liberality.
The accompanying picture was
made by J. B. Lossing, from the
original drawings were in possession
of Rev. Francis Hawks, a grandson
of the architect, and rector of Cal
vary Church, New 1 ork. The
main or centre building is tbe place.
ami contained the legislative halls,
and public rooms for government
use. By contract it was to be "two

Here was the focus of royal display

also have found here his heart's

autumn, when work was finished,
would look, through the hazy veil of
Indian summer, upon the street

masses of virgin forests, its broad

brown trees, and wild flowers on a
green carpet; stretching up to Cler

A EW TRUST FORMED.
It Will Fight the American Tobacco
Company,
St. Lofis, Mo., Aug. 14. "Yes
sir, we contemplate manufacturing
cigarettes in the near future. Going
into the business to stap. We have
known for some years past that it is
a growing and profitable business
and have been for some time quietly
investigating the subject and formu
lating our plans, and we now have
the necessary machinery and raw
material of all kinds contracted for,
and some in transit, and we are fit
ting up one of our buildings to be
used as a cigarette factory. Statis
tics show that the business has grown
from about seventy million cigar
ettes manufactured in 18'is to over
three hundred thousand millions
manufactured in 1894.
The greater part of these cigar
ettes have been made in the East.
We have made up our minds that
the West, and particularly St. Louis
is entitled to a share of this enor
mous business, and we intend to
have it. Our machinery will be of
the latest and most improved kind
and we will employ the best skilled
workmen in that line of business
that can be procured. This branch
of the tobacco industry will give em.
ploymcnt in St. Louis to a large
amount of capital, and to hundreds
and perhaps thousands of people.
We believe that dealers in the West
and perhaps also in the Fast, will
hail with delight the determination
of others to enter into competition
with Eastern factories for a share of
the trade in cigarettes. Wo have
been reliably informed that other
prominent plug tobacco manufactur
ers are making preparations to en
gage also in the manufacture of cig
arettes, and we see no reason why all
should not be successful in this
branch of the tobacco business."

Some few weeks ago the manager
of a local printing and lithograph
ing eoinpaiiv was asied by a foreig
ner described as "dark looking and
mysterious," (of eoursci ( Mho
graph a weekly paper for a Turkish
company. As 110 h 1 1 u I edge of I he
Turkish language was iicce.Lsai v for
the job, the manager of the I'liighsb
concern undertook I he con I rati , ami
1 1 1 i a,;' II , ' 1. d ! I e ! . 1 1 ! - ..f copies of
th- I 11 r k i - I , w e, k I . . t be paper l.e
ing mostly -.-nt abroad. A few days
ago. however, two detectives from
Scotland Van! called at the litho
graphing establishment and asked
the manager if he was aware that
he was suspected of being engaged
in a plot to blow up the House of
Parliament and" that bis visitors
hailed from Scotland Yard.
In reply to tbe unfortunate mana
ger's protests of innocence, the
detectives explained to him that he
had tieen printing in the guileless
looking Turkish weekly red-hot
anarchists literature calling upon
socialists ami others to combine for
the purpose of blowing up the
Houses of Parliament upon the
occasion of the opening session.
One article actually stated that
sixteen men were really on their
way to England from various points,
in order to make the necessary ar
rangements. In spite of bis protests, tbe terri
fied manager was escorted to Scot
land Yard where he was examined
by the chief of detectives and a
police commissioner. To these olli
eials the manager explained all the
circumstances of the case, and was
allowed to go upon promising not to
lithograph any more Turkish week
lies without first ascertaining the
nature of their contents.
