ments, trusts or combinations between per-
sons or corporations which tend TO prevent
free competition in the production, manu-
facture or sale of articles of domestic
growth or production, or the sale of articles
imported into the United States, or which,
against public policy, tend to foster mo-
nopoly or advance the cost of the neces-
saries of life.

Grafton OF the fishery treaty, and was ad-
dressed by Hoar in opposition to it. His

FELTON, said that a great deal had been
uttered regarding the depressed condition
of American agriculture, and he declared
it to be due 10 competition at home, and
said we could not afford to compete with
Europe. The duty on raisins and other
products should therefore be maintained.

RUIN AND REPueLscANisM.

The election in this town yesterday
was the quietest Of any kind ever
held here. Not a cheer was heard al
dag. The town was unusually quiet
all day and last night. Very few
negroes voted, and most of those that
did vote, voted for Cleveland. The
vote here was, for Dargan (no oppo-
sition) 347; for Cleveland 800; for
Harrison Is. There was no opposi-
ton to the State and county ticket,
the vote being about 227. All over
the State the voting was quiet, and
of course Democratic.
In the national election the news is
bad. Harrison has been elected by a
very large majority. New York city
gave Cleveland majority of 81 1855,
but Harrison will carry the State by
several thousand majority. Most OF
the doubtful States went Republican,
The election was quiet al over the
United States.

Several papers IN the State seem to
think, because the grand jury recon-
mended reduction of the salary OF
the School Commissioner Of this
county, that he is a very poor COM
missioner. We do not view the pre-
sentiment in that light. We have said
often that the present School Com
missioner is among the very best the
county has ever had, and above the
average school commissioner OF the
State: yet he does not come up to our
ideal of school commissioner, and
We presume the grand jury took a
similar view OF it. The duties of the
school commissioner Of this county
win probably not take three months
actual service of five hours a day: the
pay IS it now stands is six hundred
dollars, or at the rate Of two hundred
dollars a mouth. We are free to state
that no school commissioner Of this
county has ever done his duty as laid
down by The statutes. Were this duty
properly performed it would be fully
worth the six hundred dollars salary
and one hundred dollars travelling ex-
penses. But while we make the above
assertion we wish it distinctly under
stood that in our opinion the county
has never had any better school COM
missioner than Maj. Benbow Few
of the school commissioners of the
State do their duty and it is time
Better work In that Office was done.
Our public school system will always
remain worthless unless o radica,
change is made.
