' The Cottm States and In ternational Exposition will be held at Atlanta, Ga. beginning Sept. 18th and continuing till Dec. 31st, 1895. In interest iand attraction this Expositon will be almost equal to the World's Fair. The Seaboard Air Line will olfer special in duce'tnent to those desiring to at tend the Exposition. This sys tem runs double daily trains to Atlanta, with all modern con veniences. Being the leading Railroad system of the South, it eoes without savin? that the S. - . - " - - A.

We knew Mr. Butler was ap posed A to State aid but we thought he had the good sense to maintain a dignified silence on the subject. The Populists oj North Carolina love Mr.. But ler and have given him a seat in the United States Senate and we think he should play hands off in a matter in which & ma jority of his party is against hira. It is not a question for discussion but the people have already decided that State aid to the University shall stop. E. W.F.

OUKB1LE1GH LETTER. Klchard Razor "Takes in" the Leis : latnre and the National Aliiancf. We gave notice two weeks ago of our intention to go to Raleigh . Monday evening the 4th at 6 :40 we boarded the fast mail train on the. Southern R. R. Some of our friends who have more of this world's goods than we have, got on Mr. Pullmans double-back-action automatic sleeping works. We contented ourself with the good old way. We had fair sailing to Greensboro, arriv ing there at 10 o'clock. We found we had two and a half hours to lie over. We were al lowed to put in the time think ing over past sins, 5-cent cotton, Cleveland, bonds or anything that might corae up. We pass- ed the time very ' pleasantly in the waiting room watching a young matri and his sweetheart apparently from the rural dis trict as they sat together on a regulation waiting room bench with their mouths open sleeping. In due time we pulled out, a!r riviug at Durham, at 4 o'clock. We found we were in for a hold over of li hours at that tpwm : we speriL'one nour oi cnac time listenings at 6 fat passengers su'ore.' The other half hour we had the chimes, of the manufact ures' bells mixed with the snor- At 7 we wTere driven from the depot to the Yarboro liouse at Raleigh. At 10 o'clock we re paired to the State house and saw the FusioU'Legislature open the 2(5ih business day of the sesion. It is a hue looking body of men.. 1 mean all the Dems, Reps and Pops, as to their gen eral appearance, are the best average body we have ever seen l u the N. C. Stae house. It has been said in a sneering way by Democratic papers. that senie'ol the Legislature did not wear col lars. Well, we saw a whole reg iment of nie'n in Raleigh outside of .the law makers that iuve tak- .en off the old galling eoiiars tiiat have taken the hides, otf their neck, and we pray God that they mav Ve never put Liiem on again, said the law-makers were good iuokiiig but some of thein ai e the lonesomest looking lm uuiii brings we4" e"er " At 3 o'ciouk tiie National A I-1 iiiiuce was called- to ordef by i 17 i resident butler. 1 he Opera House was pretty well packed as it was to be a public meeting. 'Mav or Badger ot the cttvv the atMiv.ss ot of R-ileivHu made ( welcome in (mhaif tiie city tll)'e Provident J . M. Mewborne n .de hv H 1 LoneL- nf Sniilh Dekota, and I. E. Dean of New York. We will say without the fe.ar of bein'sr contradicted that. f'e,ar of being contradicted that two li ner-! speeches were never made in Raleigh. The couucil adjourned to meet in private; session at & o'clock. Promptly at 8 o'clock Presi dent Butter called the counciT to order. The roll of delegates was called and the delegates seated. President Butler deliv ered his address. It was not noted for its length but was pro nounced one of his finest efforts. After the regular routine of busi ness the Alliance adjourned to meet at 9 o'clock Wednesday morning. Wednesday morning promptly at 9 the council was called to order by National Lecturer Wil letts, President Butler being ab sent. The national officers all made their annual reports and they were put into the hands of the different committees. Ad journed to meet iit 3 o'clock. The session s continued till Thursday 12 o'clock. As the business was mostly of a private nature, we will have nothing more to say of the proceedings. We will say however that every-: thing points to a general reviv al of the Alliance all over the' United States, j . We divided our time between the Legislature and the Nation al Alliance to show them that we had no respect of persons. We will say the ladies of Raliegh put a greater valuation on them selves than any city we have struck. We were criticising a member of the Legislature at our boarding -house one night about voting against the bill of fered to reduce the price of mar riage license. ; Two ladies pres ent took sides with him. Both of them said that license should be raised to tiiiy dollars. They said a man that was not willing to pay fifty dollars for a wife was no man hardly. Think of that young man. Woman suffrage is coming to the front at railroad speed. Soon you will see wo men at the ballot box, in the legislative halls, etc. Now, just think of yourself going to, town with twOjbrdes of cotton and 20 bushels ojf corn to get $50 to payv for one pair of license to marry some sweet looking girl with her hair scrambled and tan shoes on her feet and may be before 12 months she will frail you over the head v uh a stick. Well we got oil. A fine ban quet was given the supreme council at tho Yarboro Wednes day night. 250 had tickets. None others w ere admitted. The supper and speeches lasted until 2 o'clock Thursday morning. v Thursday had been set as the day lor laying the corner stone of the Polk monument. We a woke to find a blinding snow stortij in full blast. At 12 oclock the Grand Lodge of Masons of the State and National Farmer's AJijapce-nled out of their respec tive halls and boarded street carsjxarriages, busses, &c. and proceeded the cemetery and laid the porner stone near the head of the grave of tile lamented (Jol. L. A. Polk. After the coremouv we.HJ over we were conveyed to tpe.cityj filed in the opera hoiie and listened to a eulogy of Col. Poik bv his warm friend Hon Vol" Maun Page, of Richmond W e wish we could give vou thwhoje speech. It was one of Cql . Page's best efforts and that rutins agreat deal.

Th-e Democrats abused the Re publicans on account of the in fernal revenue, but when they got ill they have not yet intro duced a bill to repeal it. Gee, Frank. Hickory Mercury. A. t!reat Lamentation. The Monroe Enquirer devot ed a large amount of space last week lamenting over the fact that one Jno. Hart, colored, had been sentenced to the peniten tiary for one year, stating that the Rep-Pop committee would miss Hart for a secretary. Who is this John Hart? We have never seen him. Is he one of the Democratic hirelings that rode out in a fine turn-out and made straight Republican speeches for the Democrats who didn't want fusion to fuse ? If so, the county will not suffer on account of Hart's absence. Its a hard matter for the En quirer to become reconciled at the - defeat of what it is pleased to call "the virtue and intelli gence of North Carolina." We hope our dear Democratic broth er will make up his mind to take it easy Our Home. Stanly County Jail Burned. The Stanly county jail at Al bemarle was burned last Friday night. It was done on the same plan as that of. Poikton guard house set on fire by -prisoners. It is a wonder they didn't get burned. but fortunately they were rescued before any damage was done. i B El '. 1 Mens Wool Hits 5J5c 32e A 3 $l.o for 89 cents. . ! .: ' . r ' Thread, in white for o cents. , , chine u for DID YOUR BOY G ' we gave lot is gone but i next Tuesday.
