IN HIS recent speech i'll New York,
Senator Vance uttered this language,
and he spoke the sentiments of every
true man of the South when he said /:
There are in this broad land no
men more devoted to the Union of the
United States for all the benehcent
purposes of its formation as set forth
in the Constitution, than arc the peo-
pie from whom come, they be-
lieve as l do, in an indissoluble
Union of indestructible States.
They believe, as do, that he is not
the best friend of the Union who is
loudest in its praise and is forever
rolling it as morsel under his tongue.
but he who most sacredly regards the
obligations, terms, compromises, con-
WILSON'S and fraternal feeling by which
it was formed and out of which il
grew.

AFTER THE INTERNAL REV
ENUE

ENUE.
Recently Mr.. Richard H. Battle
chairman of the State Democratic Elk
ecutive Committee, appointed a spe-
clal committee to visit Washington
to confer with the North Carolina
Senators and Representatives in Con
gress, also other Senators and Repre-.
sentatives, and try to influence some
immediate legislation looking toward
the abolition of the internal revenue
The gentlemen composing the com
mittee are: R. H. Battle Esq, chair
man Messrs. c. NJ. Busbee, of Raleigh
Josephus Daniels, of the State Chroa-
itIe,, R. 3. Glenn, of Winston w. ].
Yates, OF the Charlotte Democrat; J.
c. Buxton, Of Winston; J. p. Cald-
we'll, of the Statesville Landmark; ;
Clement Manly, Of New Berne; +. B.
Womack, of Pittsboro; a. II. A. vii
liams, Of Oxford r. B. PEBBLES. OF

NJ. L. Carter, of Asheville; Harry
Skinner of Greensvjlle F. L. Lamb,
of the Elizabeth City Falcon; w. II.
S. Burgwyn, of Henderson w. c..
Lamb, and Attorney General David
son. lie committee is in Washing
ton this week. The Nez0s- Observe,
ssys the entire body has declared I'M
equivocally in favor of this measure,
and have an influential precedent in
the State legislature of 1885, which
was largely Democratic, and which
passed resolution requesting the mem
bers of Congress from this State to use
all their influence for the repeal of
the internal revenue law.
Since the above was put in type
Col. Burgwyn has returned. He tells
us the visit of the committee was a
very satisfactory one, and it is conf
IDENTIFY expected that the object Of
their mission will finally be accom-
pllshed. They had conference with
the Ways and Means Committee of
the House at which were present
Senators Ransom and Vance and the
Congressman from North Carolina,
and others, and the delegation were
promised that rs far as the Com
nittee was concerned they were in
accord with the views presented, and
would use every means in their power
to bring about the change sought.
The North Carolina gentlemen were
complimented by being told that this
was the best and most satisfactory pre-
sentation Of any subject that has yet
been brought before the Ways and
Means Committee by any deputation
TOR any purpose. Col. Burgwyn speaks
encouragingly of the prospects of
some speedy and satisfactory action
with regard to the internal revenue
question. Certainly it looks as if the
AK on tobacco and brandy distilled
rom fruits may be taken off, and the
balance Of the revenue machinery so
modified as to make it less burdcnsome
Ind odious.

Poor "lniuu- Hoe.

The following account of the exc
cntion of Indian Joe, an old Medicine
Man of the Shoshone tribe, is vouched
for by our Wells correspondent, to
whom we are indebted for the partic-
ulars.
There was a genuine execution in
this county last Sunday which was
not on the court calendar. Medicine
Joe, whose principal range has been
IN Clover and Star Valleys, was hang
ed at Flat Rock, on Mary's river, on
account Of his failure to effect cure
oil three or four young Indians who
died Under his treatment. Owing to
the fact that as medical adviser he
failed to save the lives of his patients,
an indignation meeting was held, and
III accordance with their superstition
old Joe had outlived his usefulness
and deserved to be numbered with
his defunct patients. A committee
was appointed to proceed to Wells
and have a telegram sent to johnson
Sides, the Big Chief at Reno, request
ing his immediate presence upon the
scene. After waiting four DAYS in
vain for his appearance, it was deter
mined in council to put their purpose
into effect, as it was asoertained that
no less than nine Indians had been
caused to pass over to the happy
hunting grounds through the malprac
tiee of old Joe. The method of exc
cutlon as giveu in confidence to our
reporter is this: The victim is tied
by the feet to some secure anchor
such as tree or rock, a rope plac-
ed around his neck to which a horse is
hitched and made to pull until life is
extinct This is the manner in which
the inefficient healer was disposed of
on Sunday, December 25, 1887, and
1t certainly proved anything else but
a merry Christmas to poor old joe

Go AND SEE HIM.-Good Saints
you are some of you in good dea
of trouble nowadays. The cause
is, you have run into the face of the
laws, and the result is inevitable
There is no prospect of this state O
affairs ever becoming any better un.
til you make the needed change il
your institutions, except the little
hope Of securing statehood. If that
were accomplished you would not be
sure Of your position single day
at least not for a single year. But
in this city now is the son of the mar
whom you hold to be your prophet
he claims to be the rightful heir to
his fathers leadership; to be the
rightful head of the Mormon Church
and what Is more important, he as
serts that there is nothing in his
fathers teachings which should cause
believers in them to array themselves
in hostility to the laws Of this repub-
lie, but on the other hand that it is
directly enjoined in his work that be-
levers in him shall make themselves
subject to the laws of the country
they live in. That is, he believes
Mormonism is q religion, pure and
simple, and that the political and
commercial machine which is being
pushed here in the face of the laws,
under the name of religion, is a mon
strous mistake and crime against
the memory of his father. Would 1t
not be good idea for you who are
in trouble to go and see this man?
Your own leaders have made mistakes
in many things; who know but they
have made a mistake in claiming to
possess the keys that give them the
right to rule you? Your lives certain
ly are unhappy now, and you can
never hope for that real peace except
through changing your programme or
moving to some other country. You
know, too, that you could not go to
any other country and do what you
do here, except you went out into
some barbarous realm and built up a
country for yourselves. Why not &c
and see this man who is your proph-
cts son, and hear what he has to say
1t might bring peace to your souls

How THE CHINESE SPEAK OF THE
DEAp.--A Chinaman would never
say his friend was dead "His name
has been added to the muster-roll of
ghosts" would be the language used
to inform us of his death. "He has
become a spirit" is metaphor
equally impressive. "He has become
one of the ancients," is speech
strikingly poetical and significant,
remembering the ancestral form of
worship of the Chinese. "He has re-
turned to the shades" ale has taken
farewell of the world" "He has
gone long Journey" are expressions
all very frequently used when speak
ing of the dead. But the Chinese
are not without unfeeling phrases on
the same subject. Still, it is not
customary for them to make use of
such expressions when mentioning
deceased friends. "He has swallowed
his BREATH is quaint periphrase;"
but to "Slip his skin or "Stretch his
legs" are Objectionable and vulgar
speeches. "He mounted upon the
dragons back to be a ghost on high"
is the apotheosis of an emperor.
The mountain has collapsed" refers
to a dead emperor. "The dream is
over" is the exquisite and truthful
reference to the death of a prince.

No MANS LAND.-Wasb ington, ID.
c., is awaiting with some interest the
arrival of the delegate from No
Mans Land. A great many people
will be surprised to learn that there
is such a province under the shadow
of the American flag. 1t will only be
found under that name on the older
maps. 1t is the disputed strip Of ter
ritory north of the panhandle in Tex
as, whose inhabitants recently held a
convention and elected officers. A
territorial delegate is on his way to
Washington to ask for seat in con-
gress and admission Of their section
into the United Ssates as the territory
of Cimmarron. The name is derived
from the largest river which flows
throw the proposed territory. This
land appears on the maps at the In
terror department as "public lands.
1t is "a parallelogram thirty miles
wide, larger than the state of Dele
ware and nearly as large as New Jer-
sey. 1t is bounded on the north by
Colorado and Kansas, on the east by
Indian Territory, on the south by
Texas, and on the west by New Mex
loo. The Cimarron river rises near
its southwestern boundary and emp
ties into the Arkansas river in the In
dian Territory.
Cimarron Territory came into the
possession of the United States in
1919, under what is known as the
Florida treaty with Spain, by which
treaty we secured Florida but lost
Texas. The proposed territory of
Cimarron is the most symmetrical
division of the United States. Not
far to the south of it, in Texas and
New Mexico, is the high table land
known as the "staked plains" which
forms the eastern base of the Rocky
Mountains, and rises to the height of
over two thousand feet. The vote of
the new delegate will be Democratic.

Senator Stewart introduced in the
Senate bill to authorize the sale to
aliens of mineral lands in the Terri
tories. 1t provides that nothing in
the act of March 3D., 1887, entitled
San act to restrict the ownership of
real estate in the Territories to Amer
lean citizens" shall deprive persons
not citizens of the United States of
the privilege of purchasing and hold
ing mines of gold, silver, copper,
lead, cinnabar and tin, after patent
shall have been issued for such mines
by the United States; but no alien
shall acquire any right, title or inter
est in such mines previous to the is
suance of patent therefor. This is
not only right in regard to aliens but
the principle should be extended to
all others. A patent should be made
necessary in all cases before sale.
