Iue Deao ZONES 10 Lie.
Frank Morrison, whom the Harris Island
authorities few days ago thought to be dead,
was sentenced to four years imprisonment to-
day. On black night, about two weeks ago,
Morrison and fellow convict stole boat on
the shore of Harris Island, and pushed OF. The
waves were high, and the boat was soon upset.
Morrison's pal clung to the boat, which was
found unoccupied in the sound next day.
Morrison was washed away. He swan in the
darkness long way to City Island. Thence he
swan to the city. He lay concealed under
wharf all day, and the next night tried to
burglarize a shop in the Bowery. He was
caught and was brought to trial this morning.
Some Systematic Robbery at an End.
Daniel Maloney has long been a window
dresser in the employe of many downtown
haberdashers. For the last two years he has
plundered every man who employed him.
While arranging goods in the windows, he
usually stuffed handkerchiefs, neckties and
trinkets by the score into his big sack-coat
pockets. The articles were afterward pawned
by his brother, John Maloney. a salesman out
of other work. Altogher, Maloney stole many
thousand dollars worth of goods. From one
Fulton street haberdasher alone he stole 100
worth. A short time ago John Maloney was ar
rested while pawning two dozen silk handker-

Nothing In Common With a Trust.
The National Confectioners' Association had
their banquet last night at Delmonico's. They
have been holding convention in che city for
the last two days. During the hours of the
meeting they have discussed various questions
of interest to the trade, and last night was the
first time they have given themselves up to
pleasure. Some SIS, 100000 in capital was repre-
sented. Mr.. T. ID. Bouchle presided. Mr.. r.
H. Moses, the President of the association. got
beside him. About 200 more members were
present. They did not begin their dinner until
9:l5 p. NJ, but they stayed late. Burdette, the
humorist, was there, and said things that made
all laugh. There were speeches from Charles
Holman, on the Ethics Of Confectionery" and
c. T. Guenther, on confectionery as Fine
Art" Frank Slbley. Thomas Adams E A
Heintz, George Close and John q. Hawley also
talked for the amusement of the feasting party.
At the meeting of the association tod he
chief business was the adoption of q res, .son
directing the Secretary to make it plain to the
public through the newspapers that the as
sociation has nothing to do with the Sugar
Trust, "either as friend or foe." This action
was taken in consequence of reports that the
association was in antagonism to the Sugar
Trust and would probably build q refinery of Its
own.

SOME of the State exchanges do not
think Judge Clark's place has been
filled in the appointment of his sue
cessor. Nor do we. While his APP
pontment was eminently deserved and
such recognition of his ability and fit
ness for position on the Supreme
Bench gives us peculiar pleasure, yet
we feel that the State has sustained a
positive loss in bis retirement from the
Circuit Bench. The Concord STANDARD
says this:
Here is subject matter enough for
meditation, if not comment. Judge
Clark's promotion will be a loss to
the State, much greater than the good
he can possibly do where he is now.
He ought to rave been left where he
was, for the impression he was making
upon evil doors was having good re-
suits.

Our special 5000 edition will con-
tain write up or an advertisement

That is the kind of people the Dur
hamites are. They are wide awake
and ever alive to their own interest
and the interest OF their town; and
Durham is to-day one of the best ad-
vertised and best known towns on the
globe. We suppose when Mr.. Hack
ney talked with his people about get
ting out a trade edition of his paper
for the good of his town, they did not
ask him I" What is the necessity of it,"
"What good will it do?' How much
money do you want ont of me?' and
hundreds of like questions,all OF which
were meant to put him off and defeat
the scheme. His own statement that
this special issue "will contain write
up or advertisement of nearly every
business House in Durham" shows that
he was not.

THE Winston Sentinel, always wise,
conservative and outspoken, takes the
same view of Gov. Fowle's appoint
ment to fill the vacancy on the Superior
Court Bench caused by the promotion
of Judge Walter Clark as expressed
by the GOLD LEAF last week. 1t says:
While we are plased with Mr.. Whita-
ker's appointment to the Bench, we
are inclined to think that Gov. Fowle
has made mistake. Mr. Whitaker is
far more politician than a patriot
and won his place more as a reward
for the service he did in electing Fowle
than for his judicial ability. As q
lawyer, ne has sought and won the
reputation for shrewdness rather thar
fairness, and for carrying his point al
all hazards, without sticking too much
as to to the means employed.

About Gambling and Horse Racing
at Agricultural Fairs.

M1DDLEBURG, N c., Nov. 25, 1889.
EDITOR GOLD Leaf am gratiied as
citizen of Vance county, to see that the
editors Of our two county papers are the
first to utter an objection to the sur
prising indulgence given the proprietors
of the miserable and disgraceful gambling
dens allowed within the Enclosures Of our
fair grounds and especially the one at
Weldon. Your editorial on this subject
was manly, outspoken declaration of
needed truth, for which the good people
of this portion of the country are
brought under lasting obligation. Let
the Christian people, demand at the
hands of the managers an assurance that
these gamblers will not be allowed to
practice their games to the annoyance of
all decent people.
And one other thing I wish to speak Of
at the fairs may be seen good men, min
listers of the Gospel lin charge of churches,
to whom the youth of the land are look
ing as guides, looking on the horse race
with as much interest as any other spec
tator, and we hear nothing from any OF
them, either from the pulpit or press, as
| to the improperly of Offering premiums
| for fast running horses, Notwithstanding
it is generally admitted that the owner
and as many others as desire, bet largely
| on almost every race.
Why are premiums offered for such
things? Would the State be benefited il
| every tenth man in it owned fine racer
Does horse racing fail to induce men to
become fond of betting, &C., simply be
cause it is allowed within our fail
grounds? Would it not be better tt
offer premium of one hundred dollar.
To how IS l.
could bring the best horse, pillow and har
ness and do the best work with his owl
hands? And premium of two hundred
for the young man under 81 years of ag
who would present the best show of farm
products made with his own hands
Then, let the young lady WAC could pre-
sent the best show OF either cooking, O
other housework come in for hundre,
or two. Is it not high time for thes
fairs to be conducted on Christian prin
ciples? GIRL.

IT does not take political econo-
mist to see the truth of the following
from the Durham SIN:
National wealth depends upon the
productive capacity of the nation, and
the productive capacity of the nation
is regulated and fixed by the product
i've capacity of each individual, or in
legal part of that nation. 1t does moi
result from what is saved, but from
what is produced. The true econo
mist teaches people not to sit down
contentedly, as does Mexican peor
with sack of meal and goat and
endeavor to save it, but rather how to
increase their producing capacity.

FAYETTEVILLE CENTENNIAL
CELEBRATION.

The celebration of the Centennial
of North Cardinals ratification OF the
Federal Constitution in Fayetteville on
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of
last week was a great success in every
respect. 1t is estimated that $4,000
people were in attendance. The ad-
dresses of Governor Fowle and Sena-
tors Ransom and Vance were pro
nounced worthy of the occasion and
the men.
OF Senator Ransom's speech the
Wilmington Messenger'sreporter says:
Senator Ransom began his speech
at 2:15 o'clock and closed at SIS.
His speech is regarded as one of the
most brilliant of his brilliant life.
Many people say it was decidedly the
finest effort OF his life. The address
sparkled with gems of wisdom and
points secured by North Carolina IN
the amendments to the Constitution.
He spoke of the wisdom of our fore
fathers and refuted the assertions OF
Bancroft, the historian, that North
Carolina had other reasons for with
holding her ratification of the Constl-
tuition than those of pure love of llber-
ty. He magniicently portrayed the
glory and devotion of our State IN the
righteous course of personal and re-
ligious liberty and proved every asser,
ton by history of facts. 1t was a
grand theme, handled on a grand oc-
casion by a grand man-one OF the
most eloquent orators of the United
States, whose handsome physique ano
flashing eye depicted the true orator
and ideal Southern statesman.
Letters were read from Hon. Jeffer
son Davis, President Harrison ano
Grover Cleveland. At the mention
of the names of Davis and Cleveland
the cheering was hearty and loud
There were brass bands and military
companies from all over the State
Altogether it was one of the grandes
affairs ever held within our borders
Much credit is due Chief Marshal J
S. Carr, OF Durham, who did his par
on this occasion in 4 mastery name
as he always does. As the BibAfa
Recorder says: "The State has reason
for being pround Of such a man
There are few like him in all TIL
earth" As a testimonial of their hlgl
appreciation ofhis enterprise, liberalit,
and progressiveness, and the executive
ability displayed as Chief Marshal o
North Cardinals centennial, and tn
grandeSt occasion ever within her Dor
ders, the assistant marshals presented
Mr.. Carr with a very handsome pal
oflacquered plaques, representing sun
shine and tempest and bronzed fan
cy piece of jewelry. In accepting tn
gift he responded in a feeling an
elegant manner.

In Memol spf the Anarchists.

ST. Louis, Nov. Son Saturday and
Sunday evenings the Anarchists of this
city will hold meetings to commemorate
the death of their brother Anarchists on
November II, 1857. The revolutionary
sentiment is apparently very strong, ildg
ing from the circular recently issued. It
is one of the most venomous and radical
ever published and has been distributed all
over the country. 1t speaks of "bar-
barous laws, the assassin band of
200 policemen against whose attack
the bomb was hurled in legitimate self
defense" etc. It declares that daring
deed would, have frustrated the hanging
and instead of working the people passing
resolutions, how different it might have
been with those who participated in this
kind of demonstration had they made a
bold stand as the urgency Of the situation
demanded" The circular calls on Anar-
chists, Socialists, Knights of Labor, Turner's,
free thinkers and citizens to seize the op-
portunity on November II to divide the
good and the evil into two camps and rally
under the standard of a social revolution.

ILLINOIS.
COOK COUNTY DEMOCRATIC.

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-The election was held
in Cook county to-day for two judges, a
recorder of deeds and the board of county
commissioners. Tonight the indications
are, at 10 80 p. m, that the Democrats have
scored sweeping victory. 1t is conceded
they have captured the board of county
commissioners, which will now stand 10
Democrats to Republicans. The record
ership is a neck and neck race between
Stephens. Republican, and Crawford,
Democrat, with the chances in favor of the
latter.
At lip. m, the recordership is not yet
settled. and full returns will probably be
necessary to determine it. The best esti-
mates, however, give Crawford the cleo
ton by 500 plurality. The bar candidates
for the judgeship, one Democrat and one
Republican, were unopposed.
