Wolfcnden came in yesterday and gave us the name ol the strange flsh which we alluded as being caught in Neuse river. It was a tarpon sometimes called the silver king.

It is a pleasure to see New Berne-made articles of any kind equalling or surpass ing those that are Imported, and Messrs. Waters & Son deserve credit for such work. Congressional Nominations. The Democratic Convention of the First District which met a Greenville on the 15th named Congressman Branch on the first ballot as his own successor. He 135 were the number of votes necessary to a choice and he received 1 51 out of the 258 cast. 'How Chas, M. Cooke is the nominee in the Fourth district. In the Ninth District Crawford isj the man. He was renominated by acclama tiou. The Republicans ol the Fifth District huve again put forward Thoe.J Settle. He wii9 renominated by acclamation. Antioch Ohnrch Basket Party. : The Sunday school of Antioch Free Will Baptist church at Askins, Mr. C. L. Gaskins, Supt., had a basket party in the church grounds, Saturday morning, August lllh, several other schools joining in with them. The others were those of Saints Delight church, oftheBame de nomination Kit Swamp Sunday school, (Disciples), and also Truitt-S. S., near Fowler's ferry. A table 96 feet long was constructed and. amply filled with substantiate and delicacies for the entire crowd numbering between two and three hundred people. Diaper was preceded by a short speech from Mr. Jas. A. Ernul. Among those who attended were visit ers from Beaufort, Pamlico and Pitt counties. It was such a pleasant gathering and reunion ot neighbors as always does good. It was an occasion which all who had the good fortune to be present great ly enjoyed. Notify Promptly of Changed Addressef. Parties who leave the city, or come home after protracted stays, and , want changes made in the sending of their papers, should, in every instance, notify us. We sometimes have subscribers to tell us, after they have been back some days, "Why, what do you keep on sending my paper away for, you knew of return; vou bad it in the Journal?" That may be, but how do we know until we are told that there is hot same, mrmlier ol the 1am ily, or some one else still behind whom you still wish the paper to go ot while away though you yoursalf are back? We have occasionally s'.opped sending a paper, though according to rule, we had no right to do so, simply because we knew of the return home of the one to whom it was addressed and have some times made the subscriber cross, because jtis.as we have said there was some one still left to receive and enjoy reading the paper. The direct notification is the only thing we can reliably go by; so whatever you may think we kuow, do not count on that. , Give us directions for every change wanted. From Nebraska to North Caroliua. Mention is made, ia the News and Ob server of the arrival in (Raleigh of Mr. H. H. Stoddard from Kearney, Nebraska. He came from the far distant West to en gage in dairying in this State, Nebraska having been found too cold for them. He expects to be followed by (juitea colony from the same place to follow the same business. The next that come will be headed by a man named Chandler. , ' It will be remembered that two ladies from Nebraska visited this State a few months ago; Mr. George Allen being with them when they were in this immediate section. ' Their being so well pleased with what they saw is largely the cause of .this particular importation, but it is qountid , that the agency . which has worked most potently in this regard is the little (book -'The Manual of. North Caro lina,''' which 'opening the eyes of out siders to the manliold advantages oi every section of our good old 8tate; s. V-'i ' Mr. George R.' Sherwood of Kentucky has written a letter which' is now irnthe possession of Commissioner of Agriculr tare" Robinson, : Mr. Sherwood eays we have no idea how many, farmers of that section are coming South. There has been' failure i "of crops' there for . three years and this year the failure is complete. He says It is hard to make the Southern people appreciate the condition, there, and that there never was such a time to work to secure good farmers South, and that if the Western ftrmera. could buy some of the good Southern farms 6n easy paymentswe would be surprised to see bow large a number could be, induced to coma.:'1 '--.-': .

The psoplo of Vanceboro arc consid crahly exercised about their mail facili ties and not without cause. The reason is that the contractors for carrying the mail to that town have struck, not for higher wages but to recover back pay, Mr. Wm. Adains has the conduct for parrying it between Vanceboro and New Berne and Mr. John Allen 'Jackson for carrying it between Vanceboro and Washington. Their pay belongs ro come quarterly but their services have not been paid for for ten and a half months past, and not having as much cash as Uncle Sam they refu-c to serve him any more until he ponies up. This action of the mail carriers not only shuts off the Vanceboro post office. but also the offices along the route so that New Berne, about twenty miles dis' tant, is the nearest office to the Vanceboro people. They got the last mail from New Berne Tuesday and have to send to New Berne if they wish to mail anything. We think the strikers in this instance will win. What the reason is that the pay has not been forthcoming seems not to be at all understood, but the people are not going'to do without their mails. In fact some arrangement has been cntored into by which the service is to be resumed Monday. We hope everything will be satisfactorily adjusted and no more hitches occur. Protest Against Substitutes for Regular Bagging, The Amoskeiig Manufacturing com pany and fifteen other leading cottm man ufacturing firms of New England havo issued a very positive utterance in a cir cular to the President of the New York cotton Exchange upon the subject of using unsuitable bagging as Uncover ing for bales of cotton. It reads thus: "We. Treasurers of Cotton Manufac turing companies in New England, hereby enter our protest against the use of sugar sacks in the cavering of . eotton bales in the states growing cotton, for tho reason that being closer than the ordinary jute bagging, it takes water quicker, absorbes more, retains it longer, and stains and damages the cotton immediatey next the covering much more than the jute. Any extra loss to the mills from the sack cov ering would cause ns to reject any cotton thus covered. Farmers would do well to bear the above facts in mind. Justice to Whom It Is Due.

Street, Dear Sir: I learn that at a recent con ference of the Northern Methodist Church held at Hatteras, N. C, the committee appointed to investigate the charges against Rev. W. E. West, the'pastor of that church at Ocracoke, N. C, of alleged drunkenness while in New Berne, decided that the charges were ialse. Several people, members of that church among them three of their ministers came up hero to investigate and get statements and did get, statements from men of the best character who saw tlio Hev, West in bis drunken condition. Each of the min isters who came ni here to get state ments said before they lett tual the evi dence was sufficient, and that they were satisfied of the truth ot the statements. Now it appears to me that those who came here for and got statements from good men and men they cannot help k.iowmg to lie ol high c linracter certainly must not have exhibited those statements to the committee, and did not report cor iv ctl y Hit oral sbitemeuts and if ibis is so the church and the good people of the cliurcli especially at Ocracoke have been imposed upon and should know the truth will you please let nie know whatstate uti'iu vou ir.ade to those who-came to you fur statements, as near as you can id regard to the alleged tlrunkeuness ot the Rev. West. Very Truly, Jas. A. Thomas. New Berne, N. C. Aug. 8, 1894. Mr. Jas. A. Thomas, Dear Sir: Your favor of the 7th inst, is received and noted. In reply to your request that 1 let you kuow what statement I made to those who came to me for statements in regard to the alleged drunkenness ot the Rev. West. I will say, that some time in the latter part of February, or first part of March, this yiar. 1 saw a man at the corner of Middle and South Front streets in this city in a very drunken condition leaning against tlio store occupied by Lucas and Lewis. I nt close to him and saw perfectly well his condition, This man answered perfectly in every par ticular to the description siven mo of the Rev. Mr. West. At that time I did not know the mai personally. I have made the aboye statement to several who came to me for it and who I understood were investigating the matter. Subsequently, this same man came to my place of business and introduced him self as Mr. West, and asked to see me, we went into my office. He then asked me if I had said that he came to my place of business drur.k. I told him no I had not said he came to my place drunk, but that. I had said I saw a man answering his de scription drunk at the corner ot Middle and South Front streets leaning against the store of Lucas and Lewis, and that when I saw him I did not know who he was, but after he introduced himself I knew who it was, and that it was him and he was drunk. He asked me. "Do j'ou say so and stick to that now? I told lim 'A'e?,'' most emphatically and that I would swear to it. tie then left me. I have not seen him since. This is what I know and is about the statements I have made to several who have asked me about the matter. Very Truly Yours, E. S. Street. JOSES COUNTY DEMOCRACY, Former Financial Wreck of the Connty. Fine Condition Now Uphold Those Who Hade It So. Editor Journal: I am a former citizen of Jones county. Have not had had any business relations with any of the otneers ot the county until recently in a loner while. I notice a remarkable difference between the way in which the finances ot the county were run then and now. Then county vouchers were worth under the old "Regime" only 40 cents on the dollar. Now they are worth dol lar for dollar, and if the county treasurer by some mischance were to happen to be absent when an order became due almost anv ono would cash it in fact the pres ent sheriff makes a practice of doing so simply for accommodation's sake. How is that for a change? Verily and truly the times have changed lor tne better. As an old citizen of Jones county, whose welfare and m'osneritv I shall ever desire, I am proud of her present board si sommissiuuerR aim tuso ul uef couuiy officers- as well. Under the old "iron clad regime" you had either to take forty cents on the dollar or nothing, unless you waited almost interminably tor your money. Now whenever an order is ap proved the treasurer of the county sits serenely and smilingly on hand and grace fully hands oyer the money, dollar for dollar. . Such men as I. I. Simmons, sheriff, Lafayette Dillahunt, jr., James F. White, and A. C. Haskins are the right men in the right places. They cannot be bought for money. They are too pure to soil their bands or consciences with bribes, or sneculatins on the necessities of the pco- pie.- ineyjire uiopure uuu uuuurauro uj - . J t U..1. rob the poor ot their nara earnings so as to enable themselves to gain a little "flltbv lucre"; nor have they gone to the poor house and deprived the ' inmates tbereot or tneir scanty lare ana apparei. What a contrast between then and now: and the people wilt take a note of this, and trive honor to whom honor is due when the election comes off next Novem ber by re-electing them if they so. desire it, the garnet old set ot officers-who helped by their voices and acts as welt (o place old Jones county on her present elevated financial standing, .

' :; In dusky obscurity groping their way to high places of honor ana renown witn no pretentions or claims, save ignorance,, "sore-headed-edness and irrepressible and inimitable cheek to urge them on, could Grant's presumption and asinine chcetc go furth er? Ithink not. Now then, inasmuch as the present in cumbents have done their duty so well and faithfully we believe the people of i "lies county wilt also do theirs oy giving u next November such an overwhelm ing majority as will make 3rd partyism wilt into the unknown and unknowable Irom weence they sprang. Methinks now I can see them as they skulk a ay to their obscurity, oue by one, like thewild beast to his lair, and lie thomselves down to take that political sleep that knows no awaking. As physicians in extreme cases have to resort for a cure to "heroio. treatment," so also twill the 8rd party receive the same and hence the political undertaker's services will be in requisition. Will they come again 1 I think not, for they will be most effectually squelched, and the plncts that now know them will know them no more forever. E. F. B. Hotel Chattawka.

Emphatically a new and desirable discovery in every particular. Entirely unlike all other Insect Pow ders, as they devour this with avidity, while all other insect powders partially suffocates them, driving them wildly to other rooms and other houses to live on and multiply. No- a poison. A child inny taste or eat this food witli impunity, hence there is no danger in having it about, as with other poisonous powders. No extra ap pliance required tor distributing tms tooa its own case is its own best distributor, purposely constructed to do it perfectly and easilv. As the buss 20 to the food. you are not compelled to carefully bel lows it Into every crooked cell and bes mear each individual bug, as with the old insect powders. One package ol this food, tolerably well distributed, will en sure entire freedom from the nasty bugs, large and small, as there is always enough lett in crevices to feed and destroy all new comers for years to come. Dampness does not destroy its efficiency. The above facts being guaranteed, what excuse is there for any Dwelling, Restaur ant, Hotel or Ship being inlested with the ' ile bugs. All 'that ue thi?, make o comparison with other powders. Save ibis, that one box is worth a ton or a :y other. . The natural place for bugs is in the kitchen, and the reason of their being in other parts of the house, ordinarily, is becauso they have been driven thither by insect powders previously used. Fifty cents will demonstrate the fore going assertions. Condemn it if you can, See directions on the case. Price 25 cts. 50 cts and $1.00. Wholesale Agent, L. J. TAYLOR. Cor.
