The Democrat. (Scotland Neck, Halifax Co., N.C.) 1884-1896, 1886-09-17

Let us enquire for a moment what
impression he (CIcveland) has made
on the nation. No one calling him
self Democrat could have pleased
the Republican party. That was
not to &e expected nor desired. 1t
is evident though thst he has given
great satisfaction to those half and
hslf party meh who are technically
called Mugwumps. Bat the qnes-
tiOn that concerns his future aspira>
lions is, has he strengthened himself
with the great masses of the Demos
cratic party who elected him. We
think not. His adminstrat' on has
been patriotic and progressive, but
only half Democratic.a. We int rpret

religious discussion, as you have been
 twitted for countenancing in the secular press. It is political question. The
 Roman supremacy is the claim of a. political power, falsely assuming divine authority for universal jurisdiction. The claim has been passed upon both by the enlightened judgment of the Christian world, as we'll as by the providence of God. It is in the nature ef'res adjudicata" so far as Heaven and earth are con cerned, and the relics of the claim as witnessed in Italy, in Spain, in Portugal, in Mexico, and in the South American States remain as sad reminder of the past, and an effectua warning for the future to all who are unmindtul of lhe Masters saying, "My kingdom is not of this world, for if my kingdom were of this world then would my servants fight" THOs. w.

Dr. D. B. Simmons, of New York, delivered very interesting lecture last night on "The Social Status of the Women of Japan" at he national museum. Twenty-Five years residence Tn Japan afforded the lecturer unusual facilities for observing the domestic life of the people. Nine of the sovereigns of Japan have been women. In intellectual power they have shown themselves equal to the men. They have contributed most to the development of the literature of the country. Etiquette isa subject of much study by Japanese women. Theor. etically every girl is married before she is IS years of age, and men are not per mitted to be bachelors. The style of the dress of the women never changes. The simplicity and neatness displayed in dressing the neck and shoulders is most strikingly like that of the Quakers. Jewelry is never worn by the rich and noble. Respect for parental authority is the most beautiful feature in the domes tic life of the idolatrous and heather Japanese. The family organization is the unit of Oriental government, which chiefly depends upon women.

Died.

At Wahpeton, Monday. Nov. 1st, 1886, Martin
Syverson, aged 20 years oftyphoid fever.
1t seems that Mr.. Syverson had
been at work for several months in
Eugene Richards tailor shop and
changing some two months since to
John H. Armstrong; shop. worked
a few weeks when he complained of
feeling i'll, but worked on for two
or three weeks thus, when he
changed boarding houses going to
the Merchants and that very day,
some three weeks ago took to his
bed, never to. be up again. The
young man had good medical assist
ance and such care as Mr.. Arm
strong and others of his friends had
time to give, his brother of Morris,
Minnesota, having been early sent
for, but who soon returned strangely
leaving the i'll brother almost alone,
with the presumption that he was
not very sick. but with the Doctors
ass urance he would be very sick
and likely to die if left alone. The
brother was sent for again few
days before the boy died, who came
and remained to the end. returning
to Morris with the remains Monday
evening. Deceased was Il very
good tailor and was we'll liked by
all the boys who knew him. His
people are in the old country, there
being no relative here except the
brother at Morris, at work in some
hardware stOrt there.

The Field Of Fair Oaks.

The condition of the battle-ground
of Seven Pines and Fair Oaks is /,
disgrace to the citizens of Virginia
and the nation at large. Bones of
those who died in that bloody con-
flict are scattered thickly on the
surface Of the ground, and if the
facts were told, many Of the stones
which stand in the National Gene
terry of Seven Pines, within Il quar-
ter of a mile of where many men
who wore the blue and gray fell,
mark almost empty graves.
A Sunday News correspondent,
in company with w. IL. Barrett and
Michael Fogarty, of Philadelphia,
and NJ. G Thortpn, Of Wisconsin,
slipped away from these guides and
were Mortified ut what they found.
Under the leaves and twigs and amid
the thick brush Of oak and pines,
which had sprung up:within the last
20 years, and bones Of many brave
men were found. They had ans
wered to the order to charge the
batteries which stood on the other
side Of the ploughed field and had
laid down their lives ere tho outer
intren chment was taken. AS might
fell on the Both day of May, 1862,
many Of the boys failed to answer
the roll-call and were placed among
the missing. 1t was partly culti-
waited field then. Now pines twenty
feet in height cover the bloody
ground and even stand on the
breastworks from behind which tile
rebel cannons belched forth death,
and where the marks of the wheels
of the artillery are still visible. The
bones of many of the fallen
still lie there, although the flag
which flies from the staff in the
Seven Pines Cemetery is in sight
Whether those bones were clothed
in the blue or the gray is unknown
but many men are ready to testify
that whoever was intrusted with
the duty of collecting those bones
has failed in his trust.-Philadelph i;

Pioneer Press: Up at Brainerd,
the other day, the Hon. William
Erwin, deeply buried in character.
istic defense of one of the murderers
on trial, was in the midst of his
plea, to hear which a number of
ladies gracsd the occasi ion. He was
at the height of impassioned appeal,
when ten-year-old boy slipped into
the crowded room, and worming his
little self through the standing
crowd, sidled up to his mamma, his
eyes bulged out at the figure of the
Titanic counselroaring and gesticu-
lating before the jury. Just then
the great plcader rounded out one
OF hls climaxes-of the variety ac-
com panied by an agonizing facial
exhibit-turning, with the same,
around to the court, and the look
fell full and fair upon the child.
Not doubling but that it was the
murderer, 'Red Ray" himself, whose
case he had heard discussed, the
little fellow tremblingly whispered
to his mother: "Ma, see what an
awful look he has; l am sure he
must he auilty."

A special from Helena, Montana,
October 26. said: "a party Of Grow
Indians camping on the Little Big
Horn river, about three miles south
of Fort Custar, were surprised and
fired upon by about fifty Sioux.
The Grows who greatly outnumber-
ed the Sioux, returned the fire and a
pitched battle ensued, which termi-
mated by the Sioux retreating with
a loss. of, five killed: and several
wounded. Several Crows were also
wounded. Saturday morning five
com panies Of cavalry went after the
Sioux, but up to last accounts had
not succeeded in capturing them.
The Crows scalped the dead Sioux
and reliable report says they are
holding war meeting, and all have
their war paint on. The command
ing officer at Fort Custar has sent
two companies to the agency to stop
them, if possible. Further trouble
is expected,
