The papers are now discussing the card
of ExGov. ". w. Holden, which was
printed in the News sorle days ago, APP
pealing to the next Legislature to remove
him from under the ban. The ex- Governor
had one staunch friend in the late Mr.. W.
j. Yates, Of this city, whose aid, in his
present situation, he would be glad to
have, for the papers, or those that we
have seen, are crying out against any in
reference By the coming Legislature with
the Holden matter. Charlotte News
The state chronicle. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1883-1893, 1888-12-28

We shall be very much mistaken in the
character Of the men, composing the next
General Assembly, if they were TO resolve
that in their opinion Ex-Governor Holden
''was actuated by good and honest motives
in what he did," and that he ''had for his
object the best and highest interests of the
State" The Messenger, in common with
the good people of North Carolina, turns
back with horror and Indignation to the
days of the Holden Kirk war, and will
ever hold the opinion that about that time
Elk Governor Holden and his conspirators
were inspired by the devil, rather than
good motives. - Wilmington Messenger.

The best interests of the State and of
the whole South demands Senator Ran
SONS valuable services If he is not to
be returned the East should furnish his
successor, and Maj. G. NJ. Stedman, of
Wilmington, would come nearer filling his
place in the present juncture of national
affairs than any other man in the State.

Wedding Anniversary.

On Thursday, November lst, Mr.. and
Mrs. George N. Wilson, Of near Aliens.
burg, celebrated the forty.second ami
versary Of their wedding.
The weather was very favorable and
things were looking cheerful. About
one hundred and fifty relatives and
friends OF far and near availed them
selves of the opportunity of bringing
with them baskets ladened with good
things, also tokens Of regard and esteem.
In short time we retired to the dining
table where we found it ladened with
all the delicacies OF the season.
The presents were very useful and
grand, and attested the goodwill and
taste OF their many friends and children.
At the arrival OF the bride and groom
they were highly elated. The afternoon
was spent in pleasant conversation and
reunion.
With bright smiles and sparkling eyes
we bade the bride and groom OF forty.
two years adieu, wishing them many
returns OF the day. -

RAILROAD TRAVEL.

A Very Common, But Not Worry PlessAns
Reminder.
There Is one reminder Of the draw
backs OF the railroad excursions which
give 30 much pleasure to people avail
ing themselves OF them for small out
lay, in the notices posted up near the
ticket offices here in Boston and else
where OF the sale OF accident policies
OF insurance. It Is somewhat Of q
damper to the enjoyment with which q
person looks forward to vacation
tour to be confronted with a schedule
OF rates Of compensation for injuries to
different parts Of his body, which sug-
gests the possibilities of dismember-
ment which await him. In looking at
such a schedule the pleasant thoughts
OF the comforts OF parlor cars gives
place to visions Of ambulances
and hospitals. While every pr,,-
dent person is careful to count
the cost OF his outings : II
is not inspiring to reckon the loss Of
limbs among them, even though the
pecuniary Offset is put down In what
appears to be attractive figures. One
does not like ut such time to be i'm
peled to estimate the money value Of
the deprivation Of what have come to
be regarded as essential to health and
enjoyment And yet there are people
who take pleasure in forecasting the
chances OF railroad collisions which
will give them few hundred or thou
sand dollars as compensation for
serious bodily injuries. It is fortunate
for the most persons who are In the
habit Of guarding against possible dan
gers OF travel that their nervous sys-
TENS are not disturbed by the prudential
considerations which appeal to their
pockets. -tr.
believe that Mr.. Charles Francis
Adams has said that the safest place
for q person to be is in q railroad train
going at forty miles an hour. Such an
assurance from such an authority
would seem TO blight the prospects Of
accident insurance companies, and yet
the fact that costly disasters do occur
on even our bestmanaged railways
gives field for profit TO such COM
panies by leading travellers to consider
that their individual chances Of acci-
dent are chiefly guarded against by
;he investment Of q few cents or dol
lars In these policies. While I have
never been led to expend any portion
Of my hard earnings In procuring
luxuries Of this sort, can appreciate
the feelings Of persons who invest In
them with the conviction that they
are fulfilling a duty to themselves and
families. boston Post.

Mr.. John Gilmer Speed has become

which, under its new ownership, has
already shown many evidences Of vigor
and enterprise. Mr.. Speed, who belongs
TO the well-known Kentucky family Of
that name, is well fitted by taste and
training to successfully carry out the
new work he has undertaken. He has
passed through all the grades of journal
ism, and was for several years managing
editor of the Ne,0 York World, before it
was purchased by its present proprietor.
Since then he has spent much time in
travel, and has also been a frequent con-
tributor to the magazine and newspaper
press. He has written a life of John
Keats, and edited his letters and poems.
For this work Mr.. Speed had peculiar
advantages, as his mother, daughter OF
George Keats, the younger brother OF
the poet, had preserved all of John
Keats letters to his brother, and many
Of the manuscript poems to which Goo.
Keats fell heir, upon the untimely death
of the young poet in Rome. Mr.. Speed,
in turn, inherited these letters and man.

his edition to Keats. In conducting the
