An Opinion.

We had the pleasure of an inten'
view on Thursday last with Hon.
7. S. Adams. He is 4 regular sub.
scrlber to our paper, and expressed
the hope that 1.-The skies Of the Sun
may always be cloudless."
We asked Capt Adams opinion
as to the outlook for the next
gnbernatorial race in our State. He
frankly answered; ut would be
premature to from 4 definite con
clusion as to the result Of the next
campaign, hut belived that the
Reform Democracy would choose
as its standard bearer, a man that
would lead them to victory that
man he thought had been agreed
upon and would consent to yield
his great prestige and pure name
to the party, and was no other than
that statesman, soldier and patriot
Francis I. Nichols. Capt. Adams
said he recently had adyices from a
friend holding Federal Office, who
approached Gov. Nichols on this
subject, and the Governor left the
impression that he would permit
his name to 60 before the next
State Convention.
So far, continued Capt. A., as the
present administration is concerned
he personally likes Gov. McEnery
but thought him surrounded by 9
coterie of advisers who we're using
the Democratic party as a cloak fol
personal greed and gain, and who
were sapping the blood Of the PEG
pie. Captain Adams course in tn
legislature has been consistent ans
creditable.-Wilson Sun.

was authorized by the council to
have shade trees planted in the pub.

luton relative to streets was adopt
ed /:
RESOLVED, That all owners Of lots
in the town Of Donaldsonyille are
earnestly invited to plant shade
trees on their fronts. Be it further,
ResoEved, That as an encourage.
ment to parties who are thus willing
to improve and beautify the streets,
the council promises to pay, from
and after the month May, 1887, the
sum Of twenty-five cents for each and
every tree, provided. /. that such
trees are then in full and vigorous
growth, 2. that they are not less
than fifteen feet apart, and 3. that
they are not willow trees.
Our council, we think, might thus
beautify Madeleine Square and Ger
tain streets, specifying. however,
that the trees should be oak, elm,
Eastwood or sycamore and not china.
