Orange Comfy.

We have heard good deal within the
past ten days about the disaffection in
the ranks of the Democracy in Orange
county. We have investigated the mat
ter as thoroughly as necessary, and be-
lieve that We have arrived at the true
situation of affairs. 1t was said that
the feeling against Dougherty was tre-
mendous, that the Democrats would not
turn out and vote for him, that no or
ganiZation existed in that county and
most everybody was going to do as he
pleased. Moreover, the selection of Mr..
Bryan for the State Senate on the Dem
ocratic ticket, is said to have dissatisfied
DIR. Harris and his friends at Sanford
We have failed utterly to find any
thing that will approach a confirmation
of the above statements. We have seen
DIR. Harris in this office since his defeat
for the nomination for the Senate, and
he has reported to us that Orange was
all right for Dougherty. As for him
self, he is earnestly and consistently sup
porting the entire Democratic ticket, To-
cal and COMPRESSION al. His paper, the
Journal, has hoisted all the names on
the ticket and the editor is dealing
heavy blows for the noble and conserva-
tive Democratic party. Mr.. Wilborne,
chairman of the Democratic congress
sional executive committee, also has in
formed us that everything is all right in
Orange and the rank and file never in
better spirits. a good, strong Democratic
club was organized few days since at
Sanford, with DIR. Harris as president.
and every Democrat in that section is
zealously and diligently at woIk for
Dougherty and all the balance Of the
ticket.
In other words, Orange is solid for
Doueherty." 1t is good for the usual
Democratic majority. and prabably may
increase the vote for Congressman. We
put Orange down rs good for 500 or 1000
majority for the entire Democratic
ticket in November next.

The AutnorIuics OF Philadelphia
Practice What They Preach.


1t must be admitted that the citizens
of Philadelphia believe what they
preach, that public Office is public
trust" As ia" as we know the munic-
ipal affairs of that city have lcen man
aged generally with great freedom from
corruption. Thr sligqtest suspicion of
wrong doing has been sufficient to re
move from public trust any officer, how
eyer high. Mayor Smith, who has lust
been impeached for the violation of the
law regulating the management of pub
lie money, is IA singular example of this
determination on the part of the citizens
to have the affairs of the city managed
as the law directs. The city did MT lose
any money by Smiths action, as he re
stored every dollar that he Illegally ap-
propriated, but the collation. of the law
was regarded as bfeat offense all the
same and he has been impeacheI. Ac-
ton like this restores ones faith in the
honesty of people and their courage to
enforce the law, even when violated by
an official at the head of a great city's
government. The telegraph gives us
the particulars of the action of the city
council before which the impeachment
resolution was considered. The vote on
the question was taken amid great eX-
element. The telegraph reports that
1.-The city council this evening by vote
of 40 to 80 decided to impeach Mayor
Smith. There has seldom been wit
messed such "A scene of anxiety and eX-
citeme mt as was presented in and about
the Common Council chamber during
their entire session to-day. The gallery
and lobby were crowded to their eN-
IRENE limit. and hundreds were turned
away by the officers who were stationed
at the entrance. Nothing was thought
of beyond the Impeachment of Mayor
Smith, the first event of the kind ever
occurring in this city. Every member
was in his seat, and the arguments both
pro and con were forcible and eloquent.
The arguments of Messrs. Clay on be
half of report and Smith against ITS
recommendation were mastery and
every word fell clesr upon attentive
ears. When the last speaker had re
sumed his seat the votes upon the motion
of censure as "A substitute for the resolu-
ton of Impeachment and upon the res
olution itself were quickly taken, and
the result spread like wilGfire through
the city, forming the all-absorbing topic
of discussion and comment"

Gratifying News Tor captain Me
Graw.

Arrangements are being made at the
Treasury Department for the early dis
tribution of the new silver certificates
which are now being printed at the Blu
reau of Printing as rapidly as possible.
The first batch of one dollar certificates
was received at the Treasury Depart
ment Monday. 1t consisted of 5000 sheets
and amounted to $50. 1000. They now
need only the seal of the Treasury De-
partment to he finished notes. The Blu
reau will continue To print these notes
at the rate of SEQ, 600 a day during the
present week. Additional facilities viii
be supplied next week by which the
issue will be increased to $50. 900 day.
Orders for these bills in large amounts
have been received from all parts of the
country. 1t is the purpose of the Depart
ment, however, to hold the notes until
the supply will allow pro rata dis
tribution of q respectable amount to each
section of the country, and they will be
shipped from Washington so as to Sc
cure their simultaneous delivery at the
different sub-treasuries. 1t is expected
that the ones will be put into general cir
culation in about two weeks. The two
dollar certificates are somewhat DELAYED
and will not be ready for issue for about
three weeks.

Our School Interests.

We had an agreeable interview. last
evening, with j. III. Harp, Esq, of Cres-
cent City. a member of the County
School Board, and Prof. Woods, our
county Superintendent of Public In
struction. They called TO give points in
connection With our school interests.
Mr.. Harp advised US that the fee of one
dollar charged applicants for schools at
the public examinations was q good and
proper one. 1t was, however, the act of
the School Board, instead of the Super
intendent, as stated in THE NEWS of
Monday. 1t is customary to charge the
fee in other States. In Tennessee the
charge is two dollars. The object of the
charge is, oslensibly, to raise money to
defray thu expenses of the teachers
annual institute. But it works a
two-fold purpose-it creates a fund
for institutes, and keeps persons
not qualified as teachers, and who know
that they cannot secure certificates from
coming to the examination and occupy
ing the time and attention of the Super
version Of the case, we are not sure but
that it is a good policy to exact the fee.
We understand that n large majority of
the teachers pay the fee cheerfully. The
law leaves it to the discretion of the
board to require it or not asst deems best.
In this county iu has been found judi
cious to make the charge.
We also stated on Monday that it was
good plan to close up schools IN the
county where sufficient interest was not
taken to keep up an average attendance.
Prof. Woods says he will enforce this
rule, and last year squire Harp, acting
for the board, did close up one for this
cause in the southern part of the county.
Parents and teachers should bear this
matter in mind, and see that the
scholars attend school regularly, or
else they may wake up some morning
and find their school discontinued by or
der of the board. Squire Harp expressed
himself in favor of compulsory atten-
dance.
There will be over sixty schools in the
county tiilS COiiIHR SCHOOi year, poSStpiy
sixty-four. Teachers for nearly all have
been provided, and many of them are
reported first class. Generally, the
schools in the county will begin on the
1st promimo. Ii will take large sum
of money to meet the current expenses
of these schools, and it will he a matter
for the board of county commissioners
to consider carefully the question of
means. Prof. Woods thinks it will take
not less than $500 nor over $50, 900
to carry on the schools succe ssfully for
the coming school year.
There seems to be much zeal NANTES
ted in popular education and our school
officers have caught on" about as ear
nestIy as anybody else. Both Squire
Harp and Prof. Woods seem very much
encouraged at the outlook, and trust for
a liberal support from the county author
iIies. Parents, too, are taking a much
deeper interest than formerly. Consid
ering the salaries paid, the class of teach
ers employed this year are above the
average. With careful superintendence,
Pros. Woods thinks, we shall make very
decided progress this winter in our pub
lie schools.

"THE sensation some Of the Chicago
papers have been making over the
hardships endured by Joaquin Miller's
daughter, and the unfeeling cruelty OF
the poet is entirely baseless and more
sIanderous than otherwise" says "Vi-
dette," the New York correspondent
of the New Orleans Picayune. vi
dette adds:
The true story of Maud Miller is
this: She is a spoiled child. When her
father went abroad his publishers had
instructions to give her $50 a month.
He was called hone particularly on
her account, when she had reached the
age OF twelve, and placed her in a
Canadian convent school to be edu-
Gated. When she graduated, something
over a year ago, he sent her
to Europe in charge of a wealthy lady,
but she came back without his knowl-
edge and secretly married Steele Mac
hayes son against his express wishes.
He and Mr.. Mackaye both forgave the
young couple, however, and tried to
make the best of their rashness. Soon
after the marriage Maud became stage
struck aud contrary to the wishes Of
her husl and, obtained a position in a
company playing "Forty.Nine."
Young Mackaye could not go West
with her because he was acting
in Zone of Our Girls" at the
Lyceum Theatre, and with
habitual willingness she went alone.
When the Company she was with be-
came stranded she was simply too
proud to send to either husband or
father for assistance, but instead, call
ed upon strangers, who magniied her
temporary needs into a narrowing cas-
Of deseltion, distress and restitution.
Her husband is waiting now to receive
her back again and to provide for her
the home he has never denied her, lit
tie consideration as she has shown for
it or him.

LtaAGAH
HENRIETTA, TEXAS; Jan. 27.-The
preliminary trial of A. A.. Steagall, of
Clay county, charged with living in
adultery with his daughter, who died
after giving birth to a child a few days
ago, came off yesterday. The evidence
against Steagall shows that he had
lived in adultery with his daughter for
five years; that be was the father of
her babe. and that he killed the child
by breaking its neck. 1t was shown
that he had administered all the medi
cine taken by his daughter, from which
it was inferred that he had poisoned
her. Bail was refused the
prisoner. During the trial the
crowd brought a rope into
the courtroom for the purpose of
lynching Steagall. The crowd was
kept quiet until the trial. When the
officers started with the prisoner for
the Jail one of the crowd carried a
rope, with a loop in one end, and as
soon as the defendant stepped out of
the courtroom door, an effort was
made to lynch him, but the rope man
was caught and SJeagall, seeing the in
t%ention, ran to the jail, begging for
entrance, which was quickly given by
an officer who CHANGED to be there.
The officers turned, brandishing their
pistols in the faces Of the mob, threat
ening to kill the first man who pur-
sued the prisoner. The crowd finally
%dispered, but public feeling is so in
tense that it is thought another at
tempt at lynching will be made soon.
