The Candidates for oounoilmen.

The near approach of the Demo-
cratic primaries next Tuesday is
causing a good deal of activity in sew
eral of the wards where there will be
contests.
liz the First Ward DIR. j. NJ. Den
mis- and Mr.. NJ. w, Davis are the can
didates, and the probabilities are that
the successful candidate will have to
tackle DIR. Andrew Seargent on the
other side at the December election.
Tho ward is close.
In the Second Ward Mr.. M. c.
Forbes is conceded a walk-over in the
primary, 1t is understood that Mr.
Polk Cansler will be his opponent
but Forbes cannot be beaten.
In tho Third Ward matters are
somewhat unsettled. Messrs. Geo
w. Shaw and w. II. Fyke will likely
be the only candidates voted for and
it is doubtful which will win. Coun'
Gilman E. B. Long is in this ward and
will probably run again, but the ward
is safely Democratic.
Up in the "Funnel," or Fourtl
Ward, Mr.. Frank W. Dabn y is su
....or, both in the primary and a
the election. Mr.. e p. Campbell
will likely be the Republican candi
date.
Out in the "Bloody Fifth" MIR. Ii
w. Tibbs is willing to buck agains
the little Republican majority OF $50
with which Councilman A. H. Ander
SOIL will be backed in his race for re
election.
The Sixth Ward, the Democratic
stronghold, is all torn up with quar-
tette of candidates - Messrs. f. M
Flack and w. E. Ragsdale, on Main
and Geo. W. Collins and r. H. De
Treville, on Virginia street Each II
confident of winning. Councilman
&C. Mcdaniel will probably be re
Q nominated by the Republican party
! but the Democratic majority is to-
1 big for him to have the ghost OF
chance.
The Seventh is having neck-and
neck race between Messrs.. w. j
Withers, Geo. H. johnson and d. c
! Cary, and the indications are that
blanket will cover all of them on thu
/ home stretch. 1t is said Mr.. w. L
Williamson would like to try to bea
the winner.

An honest Swcdo tells his story in
plain but unmistakable language for
the benefit Of the public. "One of my
children took cold and got the
Group. / gave her teaspoonful Of
Chamberlain's Cough Rene ly, and
in five minutes later | gave her one
more. BY this time sh, had to cough
up the gathering in her throat, Then
she went to sleep and slept good for
fifteen minutes. Then she got up
and vomited; then she went back to
bed and slept good for the remainder
of the night. She got the Group the
second night and gave the same
remedy with tho same good results,
| write this because | thought there
night be some one in tho same need
and not know the true merits OF this
wonderful medicine" CHARLES a

CHANGE IN EDITORSHIP.

The Oxford Day announces the fact
that Miss Marie Rolin Stubs, who has
so ably and acceptably filled the edi-
torial chair of the Orphans Friend
for some time. has resigned that posi-
ton, and is to be succeeded bv Miss
Matte w. Rountree. The Dar says
Misfortunes rarely come singly.
Right on the heels of the intelligence
of the loss of DR.. Is. +. Dixon to the
Orphan Asylum follows the news that
Miss NJ. Rolin Stubs, the brilliant
editor of the Orphans Friend, has
severed her connection with that paper
and..will leave in few days to study
painting in New York. North Caro-
lima journalism loses its brightest Jewel,
and the society of Oxford IS bereft OF
one of its prettiest, most charming and
highly accomplished young ladies'
The Day is very sorry to have Miss
Stubs leave, and trusts that she will
reach the highest round in the ladder
of fame with the palette and brush
Miss Matte w. Rountree, who has
shown marked capability for the posi-
ton, is the new editor, and will keep
the Fjiendup to its present high stand

fullest measure of success.

fession in the past few years, and they
are devoting themselves to the work
CON AMoRE. One Of the draw backs
to journalism in the past is that the
remuneration has been so small that
the ablest men have devoted their
talents to other callings. But that con-
dition is changing, and journalism is
quite as much of profession now as
law. or medicine, or the ministry.
They are an earnest and industrious
body of men. The yearly coming to-
gether strengthens the bonds that bind
US together, and gives me higher re-
gard and appreciation for them. They
do more work for less money than any
people in the State-more unselhsh
work, work that is Of strictly public
nature. Many are too poor to take a
long absence from labor, but, God
bless 'em, they have the consciousness
of being true to their convictions and
useful in their day and generation. An
honest editor is the nobiest work OF
the age and its most useful worker.

THE NORTH CAROLINA PRESS,

Mr.. Josephus Daniels writing from
Durham during the meeting Of the
North Carolina Press Association, to
his paper, the Raleigh DaiN Chronicle,
said this:
So far as the North Carolina press
is conCerned,it is not necessary for ME
at this time, to give my estimate of its
integrity, its ability, and its devotion
to the interests of the people of the
State. Taken as a whole, there is no
class of men in North Carolina who
are more patriotic or more useful to
North Carolina than its editors. No
lnen work harder with less compensa-
ton, and no men are more deserving
of the confidence and esteem of the
people of the State. know that most
people appreciate the labors of the
editors, and will take an interest in
whatever concerns the betterment OF
the press.
One month agoI attended the an
nual Convention of the National Edi-
torial Association in Boston and since
then | have received probably one
thousand newspapers from every State
in the Union. This has given me an
opportunity | never had before OF
comparing the NortE Carolina papers
with the papers of other States. The
compar ison has been much more
favorable than would generally be sup
posed. And not only SO, but this com
parison has shown me that the weekly
papers in North Carolina are incom.
parably superior to those of any othe,
State in the Union. This is not onl,
true as to the ability displayed in the
editorial columns, and the vigor and
freshness of contributions, but also in
typographical make up. The improve.
ment in North Carolina papers has been
most marked in the past few years
Quite a number of brainy young men
have entered upon journalism as a pro-
