SUDDEN DEATH The sad news
was brought here on Monday of the
sudden death at his home in Potosi on
the previous day, of Edward Kinney, 3
son of Mr.. Geo. Kinney. He had been
confined to the house a few days with
mumps but was not considered danger
ously i'll. Erysipelas set in and compli-
Gated the case and before his friends
realized that his condition was at all Sc
rlous he was past recovery. The funeral
was on Wednesday. Ed. as he was
known to his friends, was young man,
of whom everybody speaks in the light
est terms. He was employed in the
store of w. H. Hunt, and was efficient
and popular. His death will be Sc
we're blow to the afflicted family and to
the whole community. He was about
% years of age.

Cured here during the election ex-
citement. Two young North Caroli-
ma Treasury clerks made bargain
that as one wanted to go home and
vote. the other should send him the
size of Cleveland's victory by tele-
graph as fast as the returns came in
Tuesday at midnight the clerk sent
off "ResuIt in Doubt" Wednesday
as the news became worse, he contin-
ued to send ambiguous dispatches
somewhat doctored to suit his hopes.
Tuesday the clerk in N. G. became
impatient and wanted something def
mite. Whereupon he got this: "Me
and German still in the ring and
claiming New York by 1900 I" The
evident despair which prompted this
was so apparent that the melancholy
truth was out.
Another is this. General Robert B.
Vance, now Commissioner of Patents,
but formerly member of Congress from
the Ninth District, became impatient,
and telegraphed TO Colonel Tom john
ston to let him known how the district
stood. Quickly the wires flashed
back this laconic but somewhat char
acferistic answer: "Gone to h-ll by
200" As General Vance is both a
preacher and a poet this answer must
have appalled, him. GRANVILLE.

RANSOM OR WADDELL.
Which Will be the Next Senator from
North Carolina


From the Washington, Cd. c. Capital
The Post of the 9th instant has a
special dispatch from Raleigh, N. c.,
announcing that Hon. A. Il. Waddell
had entered the lists as a candidate
for United States Senator before the
Legislature that meets in January.
This gifted and distinguished son
of the old North State has a host of
friends here who would heartily well
come his return to the national cap
ital. When here he was the young
est member of the House, and once
took a prominent position and was
made chairman of the committee on
postofice affairs. His many accom-
plishments peculiarly fit him for the
Senate. Senator Ransom has been
here for a number of years and is a
gentleman of unexceptional manners.
This arrangement which is said to
have begun early in the spring of
1885 between the President and SEN
ator Vance appears to have been en-
uirely reconciled, and hence Senator
Ransom has been known to have ac-
cess at all times to the ear of the
President, and tke North Carolinians
here have constantly said, and it has
been repeated throughout North Car
oltna, that the State could not afford
to dispense with his services on this
account. Unfortunately for him and
the country at large the ear of the
President will not be OF any service to
the Democracy after March the 4th,
and with this obstacle out of his way
Col. Waddell's chanches for success
ought to be greatly strengthened.

TREATMENT OF THE SOUTH.
A Conservative Policy Expected of the
Harrison Administrations.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-The last
fading hope of the Democrats for pos
session of the next House of Represen-
tatives to-day apparently vanished en-
tirely. The most enthusiastic of the
Democratic lightning calculators puz-
zled their brains in vain to figure up
even majority of one The Repub-
leans irsist that they have five to sew
en- majority. But it may be more
satisfactory to wait until the official
returns are in and certificates issued
before final acquiescence. 1t is con
ceded ON all sides whichever party has
the House, it will not hesitate to in.
crease its small majority by turning
out its opponents in all cases where
there is color for contest. Dismal
forebodings are expressed in some
quarters as to what is in store for the
South in case the Republicans get
control of both houses. Visions of
force bills and other obnoxious meas
ures are oubling the minds of some.
But, singular as it may seem, such
apprehensions do not appear to have
gained any strong foothold in the
South itself. Democrats most natu-
rally, North aud South, want the
! House of Representatives, and it is
quite right that they should do, as the
Republicans are doing, strain every
nerve to secure it if they are fairly
entitled to a majority. But if they
cannot get il, lamentations and the
borrowing of trouble for the future
can accomplish nothing. The idea
of a new era Of carpet bagism in the
South is absurd, although an era Of
scallawaisn. Public sentiment in
the NORTH would not tolerate it for a
moment. Undoubtedly, in case of a
republican majority in both houses
there will be talk of force bills, and
extreme measures will certainly be
brought forward. But talk and action
are too things. The master minds of
the Republican party have pro6ted
by their experience, and appreciate
that there can be no chance Of build
up respectable and influential Re
publican party in the South by a re-
turn to the Infamous methods of the
past The destinies of the South are
too much bound up with these of ths
rest of the country to suffer any en-
actments or any policy which woule
seriously retard its progress or Grip
pie its resources for prosperous ad
vancement and development.

CHATTANOOGA, January 1O.-A con-
vention composed of more than one hun
dred delegates from the leading cities of
Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and
Tennessee, assembled in this city to-day,
to take action for the purpose of secur-
ing cheap rates on all Southern railroads
for excursionists from the North who
desire to take up their residence in the
South. or visit this part of the country
to make ir rvestments. Most of the dele
gates were appointed by boards of trade
in the various cities. The following
committee was appointed to confer with
the railroads and see what can be done:

LOUISIANA CONVENTION.
The McEnery Men Searching for . Candi-
date to Beat Nichols.

date to Beat Nichols.
BATON ROUGE, La, January 1O.-The
Democratic State nominating convention
met at noon to-day. Judge James jeff
ries, Of Rapides Parish, was elected tenn
porary chairman. The McEnery dele
gates conceded the Nicholes party 10
uncontested delegates, clear majority
over all. The convention took a recess
until O'Clock to allow the delegations
to hand in their credentials and to give
the committee time to act.
Judge .Jeffries called the convention
to order at $50 O'Clock and announced
that the committee on credentials had
sent word that it could not make any
report tonight and would probably not
be able to report until tomorrow noon.
The convention accordingly adjourned
till that time.
1t is now very generally conceded by
the McEnery delegates that McEnery is
no longer possibly in the Gubernatorial
race, and in caucus they are determined
to stand as one man in favor of any
thing honorable to beat Nichols. As
surances have been given them, they
say, that the Moncure delegation would
cooperate in that purpose. A committee
of nine was appointed to make any COM
bination for the Governership and any
slate for the minor offices to beat
Nichols before the convention. Judge
Jeffries, of Rapides, was first ap-
preached by the third man schemers,
but declined the honor, saying he should
support Nichols to the last. Judge
II. C. Davey, of Orleans, and other
prominent Nichols delegates, were
spoken of as the third man candidate for
Governor, but as far as known all have
declined to enter into such a scheme. II
does not now seem possible that any
combination can be made to weaken
Nichols strength before the convention.
His friends claim that he will be nomi-
mated on the first ballot

ST. PETERSBURG, January iO.-The
Journal de st. Petersburg says that the
political blackmailers and calumniators
are profiting by the fact that the authors
of the forged letters sent to the Gar
have not been found, and pretend to at
tribute their authorship To high Russian
diplomats, who they can with impunity
defame as the personages they try to
criminate are too highly placed To lower
themselves by repelling suspicious which

Arrangements for the movement of
the court have been altered and the ini-
perial family will make n shorter stay
in st. Petersburg than was intended.
The Car and his family will come here
Thursday and will hold his customary
New Years reception Friday, but after
that is over they will Immediately re-
turn to the palace at Gatschina. The
court balls which had been announced
will be abandoned. All these changes of
programme are due TO the discovery of
a plot against the life of the Gar. A

rested here for participating in the plot.
among them are several officers of the

NEWPORT, r. L., January A sensa-
tional trial here will reveal the skeleton
IN the closet of very respectable fam
lily which, in some respects, has no par
allel in the records of the courts. A
short time ago Miss Ella Aibro, a young
lady, died. She was connected directly
with a very respectable family residing
on the island. She had an interest To
the extent of several thousand dollars
in an estate in Middletown.
After her death il Immediately became
known that she had made a will in fa-
vor of a colored man named James Haz-
ard, who belongs to the Hazard family
of negroes in Naragansett County, this
State. The mother of Miss Allbro, at
one time a handsome woman, lived in
the same house as Hazard.
After it became known that Miss Al
bro had made a will in favor Of Hazard.
an inquiry was made by the coroner into
the cause of her death. but nothing of
importance was elected. The provision
of the will in which she disposed Of her
property, gave il for life to her mother
and then in fee simple to Hazard. Now
fierce contest is to be made over the
probating of the will. At the time OF
her death Miss Albro was about to be
come a mother.
Ex-United States Senator Sheffield
has been engaged TO contest the will.
