(From The Gazette of July 23, "SI.- Roscoe Conkling is not big enougn to run the republican party and he is too big to let the party to run him.

Mrs. Eliza Garfield, mother of President Garfield, had a severe at tack of cholera morbus on Friday from which she partially recovered but she is now prostrated by fever On account of her extreme age, she being 81, her condition is regarded as very critical and fears are enter tained of her recovery.

If I had another opportunity I would not try to shoot the Presi dent." said Guiteau Friday. "I thought I had an inspiration to re move him, but I see I must have been mistaken. 1 think it is or dained by God that the President shall not be kjlled and for that rea son I would not try it again if. I had a chance. If it were not decreed by God that he should not be killed, how could he be alive now? I held the pistol close to his back and my hand was steady as iron. I fired point blank at him. and nothing but Divine Interposition could have sav ed him. He will not die, I am con vinced, and I am sorry I caused him so much suffering. Jt is no use for any one to try to kill him now for If I could not do it with the chance I had, no bullet can do it. It is so or dained and we must abide the will of Heaven." Washington Cor.

Lumberton Robesonian. It is interesting to note that in the old 1-ebanon Presbyterian churchy, near Alma, which church has gone down, a good church organ was al lowed to remain in the church build ing and rot. It has been many years since any services were held in the building, which in its day was one of the best church buildings in this entire section. The carpet still re mains on the floor, the oid Bibie Is still on the stand and tiie organ was never claimed by any one. The building is almost rotten, the doors having rotted and fallen down. More Than One's Reputation at Stake. Statesville Landmark. Some of the newspapers have re marked that the courts shouldn't De too hard on the Charlotte doctor, convicted of performing an illegal operation which resulted in the death of a young woman, because lie was trying to save her reputation "following a practice that is more common than many people think." Yes, but it should be remembered that that sort of practice is made a crime a serious crime by law; and it is easy to see. if it were per mitted or excused, the serious re sult. that would follow. It is well enough to try to save reputation, but there are some things that cannot oe permitted even for that, and we are sure that the newspapers who have suggested that this offence be passed lightly have not reflected on its seri ousness: and this is not passing on the merits of the harlotte case but on stxh cases generally. The Gaston Fair. Cleveland Star. We are beholden to Editor At kins of The Ga.ette for his splendid compliment in last week's issue of his paper, occasioned by his visit to Shelby a few days ago with Secreta ry .1. M. Holland in the interest or the Gaston Fair to be held Oct. :!rd to Tth inclusive. The Gaston fair this year will be far in advance or what it was last year when those who visited it pronounced it a most suc cessful undertaking in every way. i leveland county people feel mucn in sympathy w ith the Gaston fair and will attend in large numbers. Messrs. Holland and Atkins got considerable encouragement on their visit to Shelby and as a consequence it is al together possible that the Cleveland County Boys Corn Club and tne Cleveland County Girls Canning Clubs will accept an invitation which has been extended to them to make exhibits. When our people visit tne Gaston fair and see what it means to all branches of agriculture, it is en tirely probable that a fair will be promoted in Cleveland, one of the best agricultural counties in the state and where a fair should be a " go" from the beginning.
