THE wedding Of Sir John Lubbock, in
London, last week, was a fashionable
affair, and all may have been happy,
even including the bridegroom, but he
must have felt more keenly than most men on
such occasions that every rose has its thorn, or
words to that effect John Lubbock baronet, is,
or was previous to last week, a wealthy widower,
and his bride, Miss Fox Pitt, is young and
beautiful The conditions seem favorable for
bliss, but, alas, in connection with his wealth
and matrimonial experience Sir John has also
accumulated years and the govt. The govt was
with him when he marched down the aisle of St
Peters with his feet enveloped in huge cloth
boots. 1t was with him when he made the re-
sponses before the altar and caused him to re-
peat his marriage vows in spasmodic. sharp
way in accompaniment to twinges of pain. If
the bride had been awkward and had stepped
upon one of the big cloth boots, as they turned
to go, the consequences are hardly to be thought
of. A divorce suit would probably be upon the
records to-day.

SEEN FROM A DISTANCE.
How the State Exposition is Regarded
by the Leading Industrial journals OF
New England.
From the Commercial Bulletin (BOstO9a.)

New England.
From the Commercial Bulletin (Bostoa)
A State Exposition at Raleigh, N. c.,
next fall is no longer a matter of the
slightest doubt. For its proper direction
a stock company has been formed with
capital of $4,000, and an organization
effected with Mr.. w. s. Primrose, of Raj
eigh, as President, and Henry E. Fries, of
Salem, as Secretary. Governor Jarvis is
this in less than five months since THE
STATE CHRONICLE suggested the thing
pretty good work for a paper less than six
months old.
The whole State is enthusiastic and the
scheme gains ground daily. The people
are slow to arouse in fact, the people of
North Carolina never did put forth their
strength except in war, and then, though
unwilling to the last, when they did make
the fatal plunge, it was for all they were
worth of men, means and material wealth.
From the evidences seen on every hand
it is safe to predict that if the season is
favorable there will be an effort this time
| superior to any State endeavor of the like
kind that has been made in the whole
| Union. Politics may rage, but so far as
the Tar-heels are concerned industrial de-
| 1elOpmeflt will take the lead in their
thoughts, and grand thing it will be for
| them.
New England can we'll afford to follow
| the course of events in North Carolina.
Its industrial possibilities are numberless
its soil and surface are teaming with nat
ural wealth it's atmosphere is charged
with industrial electricity, and many years
will not pass before there will be such a
flash of activity there as will not astonish
the natives only, but the nation as well.
| Pleasure-seekers, too, will find a nc
more delightful place to spend few weeks
next fall than at the capital of the old
North State, and it will make charming
resting place for visitors bound for New
Orleans to attend the great Cotton Expo
sition, whcih will not open till the fair at
Raleigh closes. North Carolina did a
splendid thing for New England last fall
in coming to Boston with display of its
resources. New England must not fail to
return the compliment. North Carolina's
Governor graced the opening of the In
stitute Fair here last fall. We submit that
if the Bay States Governor is invited tc
the opening of the fair at Raleigh next
fall, and accepts, he will express all New
England's feeling in wishing North Caro-
lima and the whole eSouth-Godspeed!

What Major Bingham Says.

Major Robert Bingham was in Raleigh
this week, and when asked about his ad-
dress before the school superintendent at
Washington and about the Willis bill and
national aid to education, he said:
81 am in favor Of it. There is clear
precedent in the management that has been
made by the General Government of pub
lie lands for educational purposes. We
are burdened with dangerous ignorance
the greater part of it thrust into our
citizenship by the General Government
And, although we spend as much for pub
lie education in proportion to our taxable
wealth as any of the Northern States, see
what slow fight we must make against
it!
81 told them that spoke simply the
plain truth. The educators in the North
do not know our condition.
''North Carolina would receive the first
year, under the Willis bill, about $780,
O00-every cent of it, mind you, to be
managed not by the United States, but
by the State Government, and to be spent
not in bricks but in brains.
'SOme of my friends have told me that
it would be detrimental to private schools,
mine among others. / do not agree with
them. When you lift the foundation of a
house you lift the roof also. But suppose
you did not, is that any reason why the
foundation should rest always in the
mud?
"We must be educated. This is the
only-at least the best-way now to helt
the work along, and as an educator, as
North Carolinian, | am in favor of it."

dolph admires Judge Gilmer and would
vote for him cheerfully, but that old ''war
horse" Hon. A. N. Scales is her first choice.
We will wheel into line and do our full
duty, no matter who heads the ticket, but
must insist that John NJ. Worth shall be
Treasurer. He can show that he has saved
the State in the last four years enough
money to pay the officers of his depart
ment for four years to come. Give him a

New BERNE, February 27.-The opening
up of the indigo question carries my mem
ory back to the days of childhood, when |
remember, as dream almost, that my
mother made her own 'indigo mud as it
was called, and dyed her warp, spun by the
cheerful Negro women, and woven by one
of them into beautiful striped or plaid
''homespun, for the use of the female
members of the family. The indigo was
grown for the purpose, and just how the
manufacture into ''mud :" was accomplish
ed is not sufficiently impressed upon my
memory to enable me now to describe.
Poppies were also grown i'll her garden,
and in those of the neighborhood gener-
ally So as to the soil and climate you
may with considerable assurance assert
that these articles may be grown, and the
profits in the manufacture into proper
commercial form is the only question to be
investigated.
In the DAYS of indigo ,peAtioned above
I remember how the pe.3 independence
of our people must have been nurtured by
genial soil and climates. We wore shoes
made at home from leather tanned on the
farm with lime burned from shells at the
landing, and bark from oaks just over the
fence Our winter clothes were made of
wool clipped from our fathers own flock,
cotton grown in the orchard, among trees
bearing the finest of peaches, pears, ap-
Piles, plumbs, cherries and fgs-all dyed
with indigo made at home, walnut hulls
and other articles of neighborhood pro-
duction, supplemented by little copperas
from town; sewed with thread made from
fax of our own culture, my fathers
breaking, swinging and hacking, and my
mothers own spinning and skeining, while
the tow was utilized by working into
coarser fabrics for the sturdy back of ''us
boys" everyday shirts. Our bread was
from wheat, corn and rice, grown from
the place; and no vegetable in general use
to-day-save only the tomato-but could
be found in our garden as well as fllberts,
calicanthus, snow-balls, ilacs and ether
shrubbery, together with thyme, sage, pep
pers, and all the needed herbs of nadteria
1aedica Tomatoes are excepted above be-
cause at that day they were considered
only an ornament, and a dangerous one at
that, because many persons regarded them
as poisonous.
The soil and climate is much the same
now as then, and will readily respond to
any reasonable demand of the husband
| man, and will reward careful culture
| with an unstinting hand. D. T. G.

A BRILLIANT DISCOVERY.
Moore County Becomes Proud of itself
and makes Ambi tious Promises.

Special Correspondence Of the Chronicle.
MOORE Co., N. c., Feb. 28.-This is the
Tooth year of Moore county's existence.
1t was cut off from Cumberland a centu-
ry ago for some reason, surely not because,
like Durham or Vance, it had a young
metropolis It must have been done be-
cause the few (and they were few who
lived in the country bordering on Deep
River had so far to go to pay five cents an
acre to take up lands. l can't imagine
that in those ''good old times" our fore
fathers had any use for court of justice
or county officials, if these latter were
paid in fees as most of them are these
days, they must have been compelled to do
something else to get their bread.
But things have changed as all things
do in an hundred years-an things at
least, except the North Carolina court
house. Who of your readers can tell who
the architect was that planned all the
court houses in the days that are gone
Certainly one man did it all, for who ever
saw one of the old kind built otherwise
than in a square with door in the center
OF each side and a cross passage each way,
the four corners being Offices wherein you
can find the Sheriff, the Register of Deeds
the Clerk and the County Treasurer, and
on the second floor you find, by climbing

THE CHRONICLE thinks we were discov-
cred by the Raleigh & Augusta Railroad.
Well there is truth in that In fact we
had not found ourselves until about that
time. Beginning at that period, however,
we are willing to compare with any other
county in the State as to progress made
How many of them can boast of manufac-
turing establishments that equal those of
our county that have been told in your
columns within the last two months And
yet the half has not been told there are
half an hundred small manufacturing
concerns that within half dozen wears viii

us and we are not going to be left in the
race. NEWTON.
