The Washington Post is dis ptisted with all the rot in mam of the papers regarding the feai -ful probability that President Cleveland will attempt to get a third term. It points out that he conld not very well make a house to house canvass denying the rumor by word of mouth, nor should he be exprcted to strike a Spartan attitude and reject with indignation what has not been offered him. A LARGE ATTENDANCE NOT EX PECTED. A well-known Democrat who has been over a large portion ol North Carolina in the past few days, says he does not hear ol man' Democrats who are going to attend the free silver conven tion at Raleigh on the 25th instant. Many would have at- . m , - I 1 cenaea sucn a convention neiu entirely within Democratic cir-! cles, but they disapprove of a Democratic Populist- Republican jumble.-Wilmington Messenger J no THE CHAMPION HUMORIST. The champion humorist of the day is the prohibition candidate for Governor of Kentucky. He predicts his own election. Kan sas City Journal Mexico. Amid universal rejoicings the Mexicans celebrated on Sunday last the independence of Mexico, the freeing ot their country from the Spanish yoke which it had groaned under for nearly three centuries, and from which it was relieved through the revolution begun eighty-five years ago bv the bold piiest Don Miguel Hidalgo. With reason the Mexicans re- joice over the expulsion of Spain irom their well-favored land. It enjoys a measure ot prosperity, ot liberty and nappiness wtiicn it could never nave possessed as a ; Spanish dependency. Lp to tnis i it would have suffered under; Spain as Cuba yetsuffers, and as j other countries of Spanish Araer-; ita huncreu su iuug as V.J I under Spanish domination. It; would be plundered by Spanish j functionaries and crushed under ; Spanish taxation. Its resources would be used to enrich Spain, Its rule would b.-that of royal or would be tew. As a republic of self-governing and progressive States, Mexico is a very different country from what it would be if it were yet divided into provinces ruled Irom Madrid. Look at Cuba, still oppressed and plundered by Spain, still struggling lor the right to liberty. Not only our neighbor Mexico, but every country of South America which has broken away Irom Spain in our century, re joices in its independence and re publicanism. Spain was always a hard governor in all her collo nial dominions. Mexico is peaceful. She is bet ter off than ever before. She has bright prospects and great re sources. We give her honor, as one of the two independent re publics of the North American continent. Cuba has followed Mexico's ! example in striving to break the shackles cf Spain; and we sin cerely trust that she will be as successful as Mexico was in the assertion of her rights. New York Sun. Life. Life is a narrow vale between the cold and barren peaks of the eternities. We stare in vain to look be yond the heights. We cry aloud, and the only answer is the echo of our wail ing cry. From the voiceless lips of the unreplying dead there comes no word ; but in the night of death hope seea a star, and listening love can hear the rustle of a wing. He who sleeps here, when dying, mistaking the approach of death for the return of health, whisper ed with his 'atest breath, "I am better now.

From the sloping, pebbly shore. "Some intruder!" then I muttered; "Want official bread, well buttered; Some intolerable bore, Seeking office, nothing more." A I at in deep reflection, Thinking of the next election, I experienced uch dejection A I never felt before; Turning.

Can anything be more dreadful than the thought that an inno cent child has inherited from you a disease, or a weakness, the penalty in yourself of sin, or want of caution.-S. T.Coleridge. There are certain manners which are learned in good socie ty of that force that, if a person have them, he or she must be considered and is, everywhere welcome, though without beauty or wealth or genius. Emerson. After listening attentively to the speeches of Butler and Henry we express the opinion that they gave no good reason why a free silver Democrat, or any other sort of a Democrat, should leave his party. We are more firmly convinced than ever that the po litical salvation of this country is in the old Democratic party. Let Democrats stand by their convictions and preach true Dem ocracy. Sooner or later the truth will prevail. Charlotte News. Baking Powder WIT AND HUMOR. DISILLUSION. Twinkle Twinkle, little tar.

In his first public speech as President of the State Farmers' alliance, Dr. Cyrus Thompson. speaking at Cary, said : "When the Church fully com prehends its mission, the men at the altar will crowd the alliance. The Church to-day stands where it has always stood on the side of human slavery and not on the side of liberty." This has aroused considerable comment among Church people, and some alliance deacons said he must have been misrepresent ed. But Dr. Thompson told a minister of this city that he said t, and defied him to answer the proposition. That gentleman said to-day: "I am not against the Alliance, but such an qncalled for attack upon the Church calls for the deepest censure." Wilmington Messenger. Fighting; the Trusts Sunday's New York Herald gives tne career ot Attorney General Maloney, of Illinois, who is known as the Nemesis of trusts. He has successfully prosecuted the Pullman Palace Car Com pany, the Valley Coal Company, the American Building, Loan and Investment Company, and banks doing business without charters. In addition to these his greatest victory was gained in securing a dissolution of the Whiskey Trust. He is an Irishman and was elect ed in 1892 on the ticket with Governor Altgeld. He is a brave and resolute man, and now the U. S. Secretary of Agriculture depends npon him to convict the big packing establish ments of Chicago for an illegal combination that put up the price of beef. Looking over the country, Mr. Maloney seems to be about the onlv public officer who has shown the true Democratic spirit of hostility to trusts. May his ex ample be emulated ! Duty and Sucoess- The thoroughly successful man is he whose labor is of real value to the community, who has form ed the habit of doing what is be fore him, unhesitatingly and man fully, quite independently of whether he likes it or not. He has chosen his work, and takes it just as it comes , if it chance to be agreeable, so much the better; if not, his energies do not swerve. His question is, not "How much shall I enjoy doing this piece of work, or carrying out this new plan in my business?" but "Is this work necessary ? Is this plan wise?" No question of like or dislike comes in to interfere. DELIGHTFUL SUMMER HOMES AND RESORTS ON THE SOUTHERN RAILWAY.
