A DEAD LETTER.
The Civil Service Act in North Caro-
lima Politics.

The reluctance with which the Republi-
can gentlemen in this city talk about the
sorry plight in which Mr.. I. j. Young
has got himself is truly remarkable The
CHRONICLE has made efforts to find out
what they think of Civil Service Reform,
and the only reply it has received from
most of them is: ''You ought to see DIR.
Mott now. He would talk.'' They are
tmid and afraid Of cold type. Yet one
gentleman who knows how to talk opened
his lips in an undertone and demanded the
suppression of his name. Beautiful as it
looks in type, it must now be kept silent.
But his religious confession is worth read
ing.
You know we'll enough, > he said with a
smile. THAT our side can't afford to quarrel
with Ike"
''But the Civil Service Law?''
''Oh, that is a dead letter here 1t would
break up the whole organization. do not
mean to say" he continued with great
caution. that Col. Young uses his office
for partisan purposes exactly, you know
But every man must take care of himself. -
The suggestion that perhaps Col. Young
still has an eye on O'Hara's district pro-
voked wise smile and nothing more. The
Democrats are of the opinion that Col.
Young ought to be tried and fined. Yet

dld while the great expositions were held
IN those cities. This, therefore, eliminates
that difficulty
Another difficulty is the lack Of suitable
buildings for the exhiblts. Well, hardly
more than half the covered space Of the State
Agricultural Society has ever been used,
aud that has been used lavishly. The
whole exhibit Of our resources now at BOs
ton can be beautifully displayed on the first
floor of the Grand Stand. Then. why not
build other buildings at the Fair Grounds:
THE PEOPLES EXPOSITION
The committees who will have charge OF
the work will issue an address to the peo-
pie of the State explaining the purpose Of
the exposition. and proper person will
visit most of the counties to explain in per-

ing The people have it in their own hands.
The men Of Raleigh have simply pledged
themselves to : see the thing through" and
0 take care of visitors. Every product Of
he State from peanuts IL diamonds must
be on exhibition; and every kind Of manu-
facture must be represented An excellent
dea would be to have the peculiar products
IF every county arranged s , AS to show at q
glance the marvellous diversity of our re-
sources. The people Of North Carolina
will cooperate with the business men OF

THE ENTHUSIASM HERE
The exposition has for week been the
main topic of conversation, and not de-
5enting voice has been heard. The appa~
rent Indifference which has SO often be- q
charged against the citizens Of this city ha.
given place to enthusiasm.
Governor Jarvis, whose admin abstraction

confesses that he has had just such pro

Tho world ID growing better
Livery year:
II throws OF N ,ng fetter
Every year;
There are many saings to relish.
Though the ancient thing m lst perish
Bot the .beaus ifrl We cherish
Every year.
Many changes have come DER "a
Every year:
Many friends have gone before as
livery year;
Through many a strange mutation
Who have reached higher station
Of thought and observation
Every year.
We have had our slight vexations
Every year;
And our pleasing jubila,ions
Every year;
There are visions TO remember
OF flowers in September
And Christmas in December
Every year.
The sun shines as brightly
Every year,
And the snowhakes fall as lightly
Every year,
As in days when We were younger
And the years appeared nuch longer, i.
To our hearts, which then felt stronger
Every year.
Affections have not shrosded
Every year;
And troubles have not clouded
Every year.
But hope the whole discounted,
While the former we recounted,
And the latter all surmounted
Every year.
Our weakness is more trying
Every year;
And the days more swiftly flying
Every year;
Our faults bring deep contrition,
Our errors adrnonition,
Experience its fruition
Every gear.
The end of life comes nearer
Every year:
The friends left become dearer
Every year;
And the "goal Of all that's MORTAL
Opans wider still its portal
To the land of the immortal
Every year.
And thinner grows the curtain
Every year,
That divides US from the certain
Every year,
We look forward to the morrow
Which shall close all earthly sorrow
With the caimness Hope can borrow
Every year.
