Raibiqh, November 18 -NotwIih standing tbe assurances that all the as pirants (or the Democratic nomtnatlon for Senator were willing that the sena torial matter should be held in abeyance until after ibeoonBtltullonal amendment question had been settled by the people at the polls, it appears from a letter ia a paper in South Oarolina that the friends of one aspirant Intend to press the mat ter without delay. It appears that there is to be a fight against what the writer of the letter terms the Democratic "ma chine."' Now, North Carolina has been thought to be singularly free from a Democratic machine. .. Certainly the last campaign seemed to so prove. : For it was the people who did the work. The Democratic organization has not thrust Itself forward into public affairs and es eciallr into this senatorshlp matter. It has done no endorsing. ; ' Manager Antler, of the Cape Fear A Northern Railroad, when asked If- his road would be extended to Fayetleville, said he had made no statement as to that effect, but declined to deny or confirm the news. The Southeastern Tariff Association people deny that tne'reduotion in Are in- luruivB mica n m im l uw vriovustruiw Untuals; and ask If it Is probable that they would make a business cut of $150,. 000 to meet a $15,000 business. v?-:: R. J. Reynolds, of Winston, offers to to give $5,000 to the Stale Industrial and Normal School there, if the Other friends of the school will duplicate It. It Is to establish a hospital and new training de partment. ) ' 'J One of the observers at the weather b-ireau here watched for three n'ghts this week for meteors, but saw none tie had an excellent telescope which he used.

The secretary of the State fair sajs that the receipts from lire Fair will be sufficient to pay all obligations inourre t, payoff any old debts, pay the interest on tbe bonds, and have a small bal. aoee in the treasury,.; It has been long since anything of the kind has been done. . " - Dr. It. H. : Lewis, Eecretsry of the State Board of Health, says that with the present prospects smallpox -will be more prevalent In the State this-winter than It was lastwlater, for that even now it Is spreading -more rapidly than heretofore. .The only way; to stop the spread is for an enforcement of the vac cination ordinances. - v - - ' ; la the report of the Fourth Assistant Postmuter-QeneraL North - Carolina -anks fifth in the number of postoffiees, there being 8,002, and tbe gross North Csrolica receipts were $788,m,67. .

Mr Travis, of the board, says that be ex pects out of the receipts for this year to pay all debts contracted since the 1st of January, but this does not mcsn to pay back tbe $53,000 which the Legislature spproprlsted for the penitentiary this year. Mr. Willie Nndford, of Scotland Neck ran off with Mr. Lewis Barfleld's daugu ter and tbey were married. Mr. Bar- fl;ld was so angry that he hunted for the young man all day with a shot gun. He was arrested and put under a peace bond... . - - , , " Dr. W. Wlxon, Italy UU1, a. Y.,says "I heartily recommend One Minute Cough Cure.
