Ever since the proposition to build a tobacco warehouse was first agi tated in New Berne, there has been a succession of inquiries poured into the JOCBXAL concerning it, and the proofs sent to the Joi kv.il in regard to the adaptability of the . lands ia this section for the cultiva tion of tobacco 'are perfectly con vincing and prove that this h a 'tobacco country. There has been no real necessity for a tobacco warehouse ia New Berne until recently, but by the time one can be built here, it will bo a wonder how it was that this sec tion's tobacco growing possibilities had never before been discovered. Ia another column of the Joi r y XX will be found a very important ami significant report from a farmer wbolia lived, until recently, in this action, who tried raising truck and it ;u it crop too 11 r t ;un, and so gave cou ntv, it up, going to another wlvere liu has engaged in tobacco growing. This is an unusually good illus tration, but the JorRy ai. has more which will go to prove thitt the coun ties in this immediate vicinity are unequalled for their tobtteoo pro ducing qualities, in quantity and quality. The time is very near when one or more tobacco warehouses will be actual neccasities for this city, and thoao who have tUo tobacco ware house for New Berne in baud liavo wisely Been it, and are providing against that time. From all sides, the farmers are already making preparations to plant tobacco next year. They are all reading up on tobacco culture, and will go into the cultivation of the plant with some well defined ideas 3oncerning its production. This is right, and another thing it will be well for the farmers to care fully consider, and that is not to overdo the business, and put in too many acres in tobacco. There are other industries which can and should be started in this city. There may seem no apparent necessity for them, but the neces sity nevertheless exists, for through the creation of industries and man ufactures in New Berne will come growth, in commercial prosperity and a desirable popufation. Let the. tobacco industry but be the forerunner of many other indus tries in this city. AXX UPON A CAST. The stay-at-home, quiet, old -fash ioned democrat who was brought up in the way arid spirit of Jackson ian and JeffersOnian democracy, whose motto has always been "no terror for us and political death to our enemies," to such a democrat, the Democratic make-shifts of today must seem very strange. To see the Democrats of today in close affiliation with their political enemies, fawning and dickering, as if the Democratic party was a beg garly one, without force or prin ciple of its own. Just now the Democratic party, upon the eve of a great National Convention, is senrring about, the greater part of the time cheek by jowl with Republicans and Populists. It does not feem to be enough that the Democrats in a number of State conventions have declared for certain principles of Democracy. It does "not seem to be sufficient that the Democrats of these States have declared for free silver coinage, in fact this seem 8 to be a political year when the old-fashioned Democrat is at sea, (and looks with amazement upon gatherings of Republicans and Democrats, or sees in the news papers how Democrats and Populists are "getting together." The Democratic party this year seems to recognize no enemy, ex cept upon one issue, and that is free silver, coined at the ratio of 16 to 1. It makes no difference to Democ racy this year, if a person has been its enemy in Congress, upon the stump, or in the press; if be is for free silver, unlimited, he is good enough for the Democracy, and whether he believes in anything else pertaining to Democracy, makes no difference From all reports, the Democratic party seems unwilling to trr.st its fortunes to one of its own people, but must go abroad and seek out some political castaway, to whom it offers the crowu and scepter of leadership. It cannot but be humiliating to every sincere and honest Democrat to see his party making overtures to such a Republican as Senator Teller to head the National Democratic ticket. It is an insult to every prominent Democrat in the party, and it is a certain sign of political paresis, when a party thinks it must seek leaders among its enemies. The Democratic party may be strong in its demand for free coin age of silver at 10 to 1, but is this all there is for the party to fight for, and must it trade off its politi cal sovereignty to secure the success of this one issue? Is there not more for the Democratic party of this country than free stiver, if to gain tnis it must stoop to designing Populists and recreant Ilepubli- cans. The Democratic party seems to be going forward, williug, anxious to make one throw, and risk all upon that cast. If it must risk all upon one issue, et it have manhood and courage, at least, to place Democrats in the ead, aud not seek political castoffs to lead it.

With no special efforts being made in way oi securing new peo ple or any important increase in manufacturing interests, the popu lation of New Berne shows impor tant gains, not in comparison witli boom towns, but gains which are permanent, and of a character which assure a healthy and progres sive city. From 18S0 to 1S0O, New Berue's increase of population showed a fair increase, and since 1890 it has shown an important increase, aud this during a period of dull times. Wich a continuation of the growth in population during the next four years, proportionate to that of the last four year, New Berne in 1900 will have a population of at least twelve thousand inhabitants. But New Berne is not going to be satisfied with such an increase, neither is there going to be any boom developed which shall draw in thousands of new people to be disappointed after they come here. Between the present steady increase and a boom town development, New Berne will go ahead. Her develop ment will be called a boom, but it will possess only the characteristic of a boom in its increase of popula tion and commercial activity. Its growth will be permanent, for it will be based upon a first class, in dustrial development in the way of manufactures. It has received mnny natural benefits in the way of soil, climate and geographical position, and to these can be added an industrious and intelligent farming community. The seeker after good farming lands will find them in this section, and the eeeker after investments will find in New Berne an oppor tunity where capital can be safely and profitably placed. The record of the banks of this city is a splendid one, and the value of property in this city shows no signs of slackness, any piece of prop erty offered finding a ready buyer and at a coustanly increasing valua tion. With commercial interests in good condition, banks paying large divi dends, property in demaud and manufacturing interests being made ready to start up, the future of New Berne is most encouraging, aud with the manufactures which will be developed here within a few months, and those, which will fol low. New Berne's population is eoinjr to show surprising figures in the next government census. New Berne is a city of permanent and substantial growth. It is gooa city to nave your interests in, and it is going to reward those who not only believe this but act upon it, by taking an active part in its development. EDITORIAL PARAGRPBS. The Caucasian man may not be exactly scared, but he keeps talking mighty loud for a man who is not. The New York World keeps harp ing on Democratic "duty and op portunity" at Chicago, or in other words thinks the party should de clare for a single standard of cur rency value, namely, gold. The World may be putting itself on record, but its "duty and opportu nity" will not be utilized at Chicago It will be free coinage of silver at 1G to 1. The Richmond Dispatch's issues for the last few days, have been mammoth ones, with unusually full and interesting accounts of the Confederatate reunion which was held in its city. The Dispatch seems to have exceeded, on this occasion, all its previous journalistic feats and given its readers splendid daily editions. The news that (leo. T. Winston, President of the University of North Carolina, has accepted the Presidency of the University of Texas, will be received with sincere regret by President Winston's num erous friends in this State. Mr. Winston has enjoyed a well merited and honorable position as President of North Carolina's University, and his departure from the State will be a distinct loss to educational cir cles. His friends will wish him all success and prosperity in his new field of labor. The Raleigh Correspondent of the Southport Leader calls attention, and quite appropriately, to the cir cumstance that at the annual cruise of tho North Carolina Naval lie serves, this year, neither Gov. Carr or Adjutant General Cameron " - i vot ui.. iu owiiis t n jr Diianf t0 inspect the Naval Reserves, and it snows a very lmniiereut spine on the part of our Chief Executives tmt t1Cy (0 not attend these Naval ., j . n iUbtrvw amelt' auu Btu peisonany what is done. James Spruut, Esq., of Wilming ton, N. C. , has put forth an exceed ingly attractive little paper-back book not such a very little one, either, for it is of about 300 pages entitled "Tales and traditions of the T 1or.r liwfir line rear lMil-l'w. Its style is delightfully fresh and chatty, 1 a gi.inoe 3fio'.vs that tlu- hiutc is not (onfir-cil to the telling of tales but is in a sense a history of the historically interest ing lower (,'aio Fear section, and deals pretty generally with the attractions of the Cape Fear of to-day. Capt. J. W. Harper's picture, and that of his hue steamer, very appropriately are in the first place of the hook, and to-day no pleasanter trip can be made than on this steamer, which is commanded by the universally popu lar Capt. John W. Harper. THE 16 TO 1 QUESTION. what is 10 to 1 ? Reply. A gold dollar weighs 25. 8 grains of which 9-10, or 2:.$. 22 grains, aro pure gold, tho remainder being alloy. A silver dollar weighs V2.o grains, of which 9-10, or 371.25 grains, are pure silver, the remainder being alloy. Thus the pure silver in a silver dollar weighs about sixteen times as much as the pure gold in a gold dollar, and this is the meaning of "1G to 1." The proposal to adopt the free coinage of silver at a ratio of 10 to 1 is a proposal that any owner of silrer bullion shall be authorized by law to take it to a Ua:ted States mint and have coined and returned to him one dollar for each 371.25 grains of silver, this dollar being a legal tender for the payment of all debts, public or private. The silver in such a dollar would be worth, at the present price, about 51 cents. ONE ALABAMA IDEA. "It is astonishing to see the ig norance that prevails among some people as to the meaning of the free coinage movement," said W. P. Saunders of Mobile, Ala., at the Metropolitan. "The editor of a country paper down in Alabama tho other day showed me a communication he had received from one of his subscribers. The correspondent urged that the 'mint for the free coinage of 6'ilver for Know county' be located at Au gusta, one of the ehief towns of the count'. He strengthened his argu ment by saying that Augusta had the sidetracks and elevators necessa ry for loading and unloading the silver, and that it was the most ac cessible point in the county, lie admitted that there were certain portions of the county that would have to be reached by wagons, but declared that the farmers could easily haul their silver home iu that manner until railroads were built. He wound up his communication by saying that he knew Augusta was the proper place for the mint, and he "would fight for its location there." Lounger in Wash. Times. The Confederate Reunion. The scenes presented in Richmond today will be such as the capital city of the Confederacy has not before witnessed in its history, and no man is able to accurately describe them. Of course it is known that there wM be graud parades of the citizen sold iery of the South and of the ex Confederate veterans, enlivened by martial music. It is also known that there will be a great display of Hags and bunting, and that the city gen erally will bo in holiday attire, but there will be scenes enacted which are not put down on the program, so to speak, and it is these which make the gathering, or rather the reunion, the more interesting. The reunion will give tho old soldiers an opportunity to meet friends whom they have not seen since the fall of the Confederacy many of whom are no doubt believed to be lost. It will give many who underwent the hard ships of the field an opportunity to recall that life, aud there will be meetings of joy and of sorrow which no man can fully measure and describe. It will only be those who partici ticipate who will be able to fully measure up the feelings of such meetings. There will be clasps of hands and heart throbs, and there will be rejoicings mingled with tears. Many who meet today have not met for thirty years or more, and will not meet again. Before another reunion of the old brigades the- roll call for many will be made and answered on the other side of "the river.'' The ex-Confederate reunion means more than a simple gathering of men. Apart from the pleasure which will be afforded the veterans in meeting old comrades, thev assemble to do honor to the dead chieftain of the Confederacy by laying a cornerstone for a monument to perpetuate his memory, and to settle the question of locating the great "Battle Abbey of the South. Besides there are to be many things done for the welfare of the veterans, collectively and individually, and the Virginian bids them God speed in all they may do. July 2. Norfolk lrginian. In Partnership With a Ghost. "The most practical belief in ghosts I ever knew," says A. P. Drennan of Chicago as the National, is that of a customer of mine at ekin. 111. The firm is the leading one in the town handling agricul tural implements and wagons. The business is transacted under the name of T. & II. Smith. I sold them several bills, and on one of my trips .Mr. II. Smith, with whom I always dealt, said that he would confer with his brother that night a'a to a matter of business. I returned to the hotel and happened to mention that I was detained 111 order that t tie brothers could confer. To my astonishment, I learned that Theis Smith, to whom the matter was roferred, had been dead 2 years, but was supposed to return every night and conduct the business. In case of any doubt in the mind of the living brother, he goes to the oihee and comers with the spirit of his departed brother. The profits of the business are divided the same as they were before the death of the senior brother." Wash Evening Star. 1V. t. L. S't-;u-it, Kdil-jr Jort'nuK Acw Hu tu , A. ('. The first copy of the Journal I have seen, siio'e it came into the hands of its present management, is before me. It was hardly recognized in its new dress. J To accurately describe the vast1 improvement, made, would bo toj infringe upon the patented compli mentary phrases of that flowery language manipulator of Wijson, who sometimes lectures "Beyond the Alps,'' aJid often gazes in the Mirror at the reflection of "fascina tingly charming girls with bewitch ing curls." Recently my attention has been attracted by tho tin morons articles being copied from the JoritXAL by Northern as well as home papers. In last, Sunday's Washington, (D. C.) Times there were only two articles copied from Southern papers. One of these was on "the literary page and credited to the New Berne Joukxal. Only a few days ago the New York Journal, which is now by far the best paper in the metropolis, and contains less reprint than any other, copied an article from the New Berne Jour nal putting it upon the editorial page. About two weeks ago tho Boston Globe commented on an edi torial in the JornxAL. To publish a paper whose articles are meritorious enough to attract the attention of other journals, as well as the public, is highly praise worthy. It is a matter over which any editor should feel elated, especially one in the South, for Northern edi tors do not carefully read Southern papers. If the Journal's rapid strides of to-day, art to be taken as a crite rion of its future prosperity, I pre dict a bri$5nt and lengthy career. Every person in Eastern Carolina should read it. Surely its cheap enough. H. M. 11. Wlio A re Democrats ? Editor Journal: Not many evenings ago the Even ing Despatch of Wilmington, N. C, edited by Chas. L. Gaskill, late of The Courier of New Berne, asked, "What ia he politics of the New Berne Journal r' We in return would like to know what is the poli tics of the Despatch ? When the present editor took charge his edi torial in no uncertain words stated that its policy would be democratic. That for the State to go Republican would place it in incompetent hands, aud that the Populists were prone to vagaries. Yet in less than a month, what do we behold four fifths of the reading matter in the Despatch of the 29th ult. is devoted to propagating Populism, defending Populism, and eulogizing the ajjostle of Populism, who had the audacity to slander the great Democratic Convention just adjourned by stat ing that the 31 gold delegates con trolled and shaped the policy of the S72 silver delegates. And now why has this great change taken place ? Is the Des patch a chameleon ? Did riding in a carriage down to the Sound with the Senator from N. C, on last Friday, give the Despatch the Pop ulistic colors with which it has been so resplendent since then ? Possilrt' the editor has visions of a 60ft sniwjisthe Mecca which all reformers are striving so hard to enter. Wonder if he gets it, will it do the owner of the Despatch any good, the man who has the dollars in it ? Brother, watch your sub scription list. Again we would most respectfully ask, What is the politics of the Despatch ? "God Almighty hates a Quitter," but he despises a Flop per. What is the editor of the Despatch, a fiopper ? or just an old- fashion "Vind jammer," or both ? The Jon:NAi. is supporting the Democratic State ticket, whatever its politics may be.

E. B. C. Hambley, Rockwell Park stock farm, by G. F. Weston, farm superintendent of the Biltmore es tate. This collection of registered jer seys has for some time been recog nized by experts as among the finest in America, both lor royal breeding and individual performance at the pail and churn. Included in the purchase are all the cows at Rockwell which have stood tests showing a yield of from 14 to 21 pounds of butter a week, many prize winners, and daughters of such noted animals as Jersey King, Oonans Tormentor, Ida's Pioter of St. Lambert, Odelio, Bess Pogis of Prospect and a large rep resentation of the Lowndes fam ily, which are noted for being unusually persistent milkers, giving from ;,000 to 8,000 pounds of milk a year. This makes seven carloads added to the Biltmore herd so far thia year, and The Citizen is informed that even with so large an increase the dairy cannot keep pace with the home demand for butter and milk. As the prices of this milk and butter are much above the market it may be inferred that the people of Ashe ville appreciate and are willing to pay for a good thing. Asheville Citizen. lii"-s or vcry One. Ilcimagei;, a Roumanian country town of 1200 inhabitants, holds its annual fair 011 t he feast of St. Theo dore. On this occasion the place swarms with newly-wedded brides from GO or 80 villages in the district; widows who have taken .fresh hus bands remain at home. The young women, in festive attire and gener ally attended by their mothers-in-law, carry jugs of wine enwreathed with flowers in their hands. They kiss everyone they meet, aud after ward present the jug to his lips for a "nip." The individual thus regaled bestows a small gift on the fair Cybele. Not to partako of the proffered wine is regarded as an insult to the young wife and her family. She is, therefore, reserved toward strangers, and only kisses those whom she thinks likely to taste her wine. The kissing is carried on everywhere in the streets, in the taverns and in private houses. The origin of this cubtom is veiled in obscurity. Some say that it dates back to the time when the Turks made frequent raids into Transylvania and carried away all the young women they could lay their hands on. Such of them ' as contrived to escape from captivity, happening to return to Helmageu at the time of the fair, kissed their friends and relatives, and even strangers, who congratulated them on their wonderful deliverance New York Recorder.
