GREENSBORO, Nov. 24-The political
situation here undergoes some little change
in appearance to the eye of a quiet observer.
The causes assigned By some of the leading
Democratic papers of the State for Demo
cratic defeat, appear to be the correct ones,
to wit the party is largely divided upon
the policy Of the Administration and upon
the repeal of the Internal Revenue and the
present conflict of opinion may end in the
final disruption of party organization as has
been the case once twice before within
the memory of the writer. Some of our
"didn't-get-elected this-time" incumbents
of County Officers accept the situation with
cool and commendable philosophy.

will formally organize their forces Wednes-
day night-End men toning up-No "chest-
nuts" this time-Side splitters from fur
back" You can just g" bank" on Dick Bogast
and Ed. McDuffie -Then there will be a
combination of vocal solos and concert parts
sandwitched into the program.
THE PLANNERS AND SAW MILLS
of this place have been kept going on full
time all the summer and fall but have been
unable to keep up with their orders until
recently. They have dispensed many car
loads of building material in all directions,
both by rail and by teams and at reasonably
fair prsft.

children of the Celestial Empire, with " a
smile, childlike and bland" have effected a
Judgement in the City of Flowers and are
renovating the dilapidated linen of single
gentlemen. Kwong says "Greenbulla no
bigger nuf,' but there is a perfect avalanche
of the aforenamed single gents, who, if
they will do Kwong justice will keep him
employed all the year round. Success to the
Knight of the sad iron.
THE CIRCUS VS.. HUMAN NECESSITY.
The impecunious American taken in con-
nection with the circus is a strange sort of
a vegetable. A short time ago a man walk
ed into store and called for a pair of bro
gans, asked the price, and when informed it
was one S1.00, said che needed the shoes,
but conld not afford to pay the cash for them,
just had $3.50, which was necessary to put
his family through the circus that day, and
would haye to do without the Shoes" And
away he went and the circus likely got his
$3.50.
MARRIAGE BELLS.
The SENTINEL may just keep one ear at
its telephone all the time to catch the tinkle
of the merry bells from this till Xmas. The
good looking youngster with fine clothes and
who knows how to present handsome we'd
ding gift, will be in requisition as g best
man."
The newly married couple, Mr.. Dorsey
Hagan and bride took new departure for
their bridal tour. Instead of New York,
Saratoga and the like, they struck out for
the land of the orange grove, and after TAX
ing Florida lengthwise, when last heard
from, were doing up Cuba.
gentlemen who has just made tour by
private conveyance through Caswell and
Rockingham counties says, there is much
discomfort among the negroes of those sec
lions, dissatisfaction as to the outlook. Not
willing to work unless paid largely increas-
ed wages, general murmuring and threats
OF. riot and disorder unless their necessities
are met.
The new R. r. schedule which went into
effect few days ago on the r. ID. and n.
e. h. Rs. and which requires the travelling
public here to be on hand at 4:30 a. m., is
not by any means popular one. To sleep
with, one eye open and sand listen for the
strike Of the clock, to bounce out and meet
the frosty air and get no hash to brace the
inner man, is an arrangement not calculated
to promote brotherly love toward r. r. men.
