AT the special election to be held
on Tuesday the 4th day of March, the
question of township organization
will he decided either for or against.
Every voter in Stark county who
favors the organization of the county
into townships should be at the polls
and work for it. The benefits of or.
ganization are many. Last summer
a great many complaints were made
by persons who had crops in, that
stock running at large had almost
wholly destroyed them or had done a
great deal of damage. Organize and
one or more poundmasters will be
elected in each township whose duty
1T will be to take up such stock. Fol
this easo the farmers, especially
those who are located near the towns
are interested in having the town
ships organized. The citizens of the
towns are interested in organization
because they will then be better pre-
pared to preserve law and order
Every cltizen of the county is inter
ested in organi cation because it viii
give them the right to elect Justice
of the peace and constables from
amongst themselves. There al,
many other reasons why the count,
should he organized into townships
Should the voters decide in favor O
organization. and we believe the,
will, the election of township officer
will not take place until next fall a
the general election.

AWAY back in the dim past when
the printing press was unheard of it
was necessary to notify the public of
any special election or other event

the country to post written notices OH
the highways and public roads; but
in this age of newspapers such a
relic of antiquity should be done
away with. In this county a MAJ

SINCE the establishment of the
freight line from here to the Black
Hills several other towns along the
line have been making quite a splut-
ter by sending men out to view roads
and circulating petitions for mail
routes. We understand that a petit
ton from Beli-ld is being circulated
in Bismarck and numerously signed.
which will be sent to Washington
asking for a mail route from Bclfeld
to tho Black Hills. We fail to see
what interest Bismarck, which is one
hundred and twenty-five miles east of
Belfeld, has in the proposed mail
lines 1t looks to us as though it was
a scheme of real estate spectators,
who are interested in the town of
Belfield, to mislead the authorities
at Washington by making them be-
lreve that Belfield is large town and
should be the point from which the
Black Hills mail should be estab.
lished. The scheme is very trans
parent and not likely to amount to
anything. The freight line being al
ready in operation from here and
stage coaches ordered, the govern
ment will hardly establish a mail
line rye any other route. While
we r pleased to see other towns
show enterprise and energy enough
to make an effort for these lines.
we must say that they are too late.

DR.. YORK.

DIR. York's candidacy at present
reflects no credit on him as a legis-
Iator or statesman. His statements
made on the stump show him to be
grossly ignorant of the Constitution
of North Carolina-the fundamental
law upon which all Legislation must
be based. He says: "When IN the
Legislature [ voted forthe reduction
of the pay of the members to 81 a
day and ten cents mileage" The
Constitution of North Carolina dis
tinctly limits the per diem Of MEM
bers Of the General Assembly to four
dollars: which DR.. York should have
known. Again he says:
Il voted in the Legislature of 1879
against the bill for compromising
and settling the state debt. To that
bill [ offered an amendment that the
new debt should not exceed four
million dollars. Ny amendment
rejected. | offered another amend
ment providing that the public
school money should never be used
to pay interest Or principal OF the
new bonds. That amendment was
also rejected, and the hard earned
money Of the people which ought to
have gone into the School fund was
used in the payment af interest OF
these new State bonds"
The Constitution of the State for
bids the diversion Of the School
money! any other purpose than
that Of education.' How will all
this compare with DR.. Works state
ments? We leave the inference to
our readers.

it will be continued as long as pos
sible. The contrast between DIR. York

the latter that good must result from

The Elisha Mitchell Society.

We are indebted to Prof. Venable
for a copy Of the journal of the
Elisha Mitchell Scientific Society,"
for the year 1S32-S3, being the first
report Of its proceedings published.
The society has about seventy-fye
regular members, and an equal num-
Der Of associate members. Sixty
seven subjects were touched on in
The papers contained in the panph-
let, the most Of which are interest
ing only to scientists, while others
are entertaining and Instructive even
TO persons who are not ranked III
that class. This humber is rendered
particularly ATTRACTIVE by tha sketch
Of Dr.. Mitchell, a fine engraving of
whom adorns it. We are greatly
pleased with what is so well said of
this laborer In our fields whose fame
is now q part Of our fame, and who
during his long career at Chapel
Hill was yenerated and esteemed no
less for his virtues than his learning.
It is q fine tribute to his worth.
We heartily commend the objects
which the society has i'll view and
hope that it will become more and
more useful to the State and to It's
members with each recurring year.

pen is so nearly rs we purposed re-

merely adding that the pamphlet IS

in its way a better advertisement OF
