WE SEE IT announced that Prof W A.
B'ar ri Winston, the we'll furnished and
-ucccssful rditor Of the ''School Teacher" "
Viii shortly issue i book that will have a
-uecia interest and value to North Caro-
luians. 1t will contain an Alphabetical
list Of the counties, the date of their ere
alton, &c, by Prof. Blair, and the history
OF each county by Hon. Kemp P Battle,
Ill d. 1t will be published at the low
price Of 80 cents.
IT Is A good sign that such a publishing
house rs the Congregational Sunday School
and Publishing Society of Boston
should offer prizes so unusual as 800
and 5000 for the two best MSS. for Sun
day School books. 1t means to get some
thing worth having. Writers can learn
the terms by addressing the Society. This
IS new departure. The namby -pamby,
sOodv-goody lit, rature which has been
given to Sunday School scholars has been
enough to take away the vigor of mind
Anything is better than the ''stuff" that
has been given them in the past and the
CHRONICLE welcomes any change as better
than what has been in the past.
PRATT BROTHERS, of Marlboro, Mass.
own and publish forty weekly local news
papers, Two years ago they reduced the
price Of all these papers to fifty cents a
year, believing that they could quadruple
their local lists. After two years exper-
stored to the old price of two dollars per
year They have established the fact that
they cannot afford TO publish first class
weekly for less than two dollars per year.
We would like to reduce the sub Grip
tion price Of the CHRONICLE, and we have
made careful survey Of the field to see
il it could be done Our conclusion is
that we cannot now publish a first class
KY paper in North Carolina for less
money than two dollars a year. II We
could take the matter from daily and
avoid the cost of type setting, or use plate
matter, we might make reduction, but
to print paper of the character of the
CHRONICLE, with the small circulation that
North Carolina affords, for less than two
dollars per year is not possible to US.
In cities where paper has 80, 900 sub
Scribers. il is profitable TO have a low sub
scription price. In North Carolina no
aper has as many as 5000 PAYING SUB
~CRIBERs The CHRONICLE has less than
t,OOO and II has more than any other
Raleigh newspaper. Less than two dollars
year viii not leave any profit for the
editor, if the subscribers are given first
class paper. # We could secure, without
THE expense Of agents, eight or ten thou
sand subscribers who would pay CASH IN
aDyANCE We could reduce the price and
make clear profit. With fewer subscrib-
trs than that we cannot see our way clear
u reduction of the subscription price.

The birthday of samu/ Mi Il is fit

Kings county, for~he found there in all
| his efforts to rnorm The public service
and to relnsttte his party in the confidence

and effective support. Let these friends
now remind all their fellow citizens Of the
patriotic and useful career of their honor

protesting his political faith proclaim the
value of his teachings. He taught tie
limitation of Federal power under the
Constitution, the absolute necessity of
public economy, the safety Of a sound cur
rency, honesty in pubic place, the re-
sponsibllity ofpublic servants to the people,
care for those who toll with their hands,
a proper limitation of corporate privileges
and a reform in the civil service. His
was true Democracy. 1t led him to meet
boldly every public issue as it arose. With
his conception of political duty he thought
it never too early and never too late to
give battle to vicious doctrines and cor
rupt practices. He believed that pure
and sound Democracy fourished and grew
in open, bold and honest championship of
the interests of the people, and that it
but feebly lived upon deceit, false pre-
lenses and fear. And he was right His
success proved him right and proved, too,
that the American people appreciate IA

Ii has come to our notice that for some
time past some dealers ia the city have been
selling cheap preparations for Aiabastine,
eitbes by handing II out Ia bulk when Ala
basliae was called for. or with al expiaus-
ton that while 10 IS not the same brand Il
is the same thing THIS IS 10 inform those
who would use Alsbastine. that there Is no
article made that is even similar 10 Alsbas-
tine, or that makes n perinasent coating,
texcepting Anti-kSisomine. which is H.
censed under our patentsl and that ell other
preparations on the market make only
temporary coatings, that require taking %
before renewing Ii they do not rub oil or
scale at once which causes more trouble
and expense than TO apply the new. The
binding property OF these temporary coat
ings is snimsl glue, which must dscompose
and dislodge in time, which Is the cause Of
much sickness. Many painters Will say
that they will use Alabastine when a Gus
toner insists upon il, at the same time they
will use some cheap mixture, and II the re-
suit is bad. will lag it 10 having been re-
quired TO use AlabsStine.
As rule dealers do not know the dam
age they do their customers buildings by
palming off on them these kalsomines.
The only way for buyers to know that they
are getting the genuine Aiabssiine is 10 buy
in our sealed paper packages, and II they
wish 10 hire the work dore they should en-
gage some one Of the wcrkmen recommend
