SAMUEL RANDALL DEAD.

It is inexpres sibly sad to witness the
closing of a great and useful life. 1t
is as if one were gazing in admiration
at the great sun, riding the heavens in
majestic splendor, and suddenly saw it
fall and sink out of sight and leave
nothing but darkness and silence!
Some such feeling swept over us
momentarily when the wires brought
the news that Hon. Sam'l. j. Randall
was dead.
1t was about five years ago that we
saw him on the floor of the House, the
very ideal of leader, erect, alert,
keen-eyed and strong. In that assem-
bly, composed of so many noted men
his face was the one that attracted us
most. There was more power ill it
than in any human countenance we
ever looked into. Slice then we have
watched his career with the deepest in
terest and, although frequently not
approving his principles, we have yet
been able TO admire the adroitness and
the ability with which he forced their
recognition. We are fully prepared
to accept the following estimate which
the Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun places opon him: GIN
all respects be was one of the most re.
markable men of his times. In the
long period of his twenty eight years
of service in the House Of Represen-
tatives there was no man in either
branch of Congress who displayed
such striking individuality, or whose
hand was more firmly felt in all the
councils in which he participated
His moral and his physical courage
reached a standard which has never
been excelled by mortal man."
Mr.. Randall was always honest and
true to his convictions One incident
will serve to illustrate this. When he
was candidate for re election as
Speaker railway king said to him:
"Mr. Randall you want to be Speaker.
1 can elect or defeat you and you know
it. Let me name majority of the
Pacific r. R committee and you shall
be elected. Will you do it?
mo.
as that your final word?"
eyes"
"Then you will never be Speaker"
But he was, all the same, and was
twice re elected.
He was high tariff teader and this
alone is what kept him out of the Pres.
idential chair. Had he been in line
with his party he would probably have
been the Democratic candidate instead
of Mr.. Cleveland in 1854.
1t will be many a day before his
equal as a politician and as a man OF
intellect will be seen on the floor OF
the national Houca

THE CANNING INDUSTRY,

The SENTINEL this week presents a
most interesting article from the pen
of Baltimore gentleman giving esti-
mates Of the cost of establishing fruit
canneries and of their profits.
We do this for the purpose of show
ing the people of Piedmont N. G. how
much money they could make if they
saved the tremendous fruit crop which
"hits" here nearly every year.
The Greensboro North State recently
said that the canneries in Guilford
county are doing remarkably well ,and
the High Point Canning Co. last year
were 80 much encouraged that they
have greatly increased their capacity.
The cannery at Lexington has done
well, we learn, and so has every one
in North Carolina, so far as we have
been able to ascertain.
These facts should stimulate our
people to 60 into this business on an
extensive scale.
We venture the assertion that there
is enough fine fruit wasted in FORSYTH
county every year to pay the entire
State and county taxes, and the same
is true of the adjoining counties.
Nature has blessed this county
abundantly. The fruit that is raised
here has a flavor that is unsurpassed.
The finest canned peaches that are
sold in Winston today were put up in
Salem They have a rich, fruity
taste which the Northern fruit
lacks. These peaches were sold dur
ing the season last year at from TWEEN
ty to forty cents hushel.
What an enormous profit was made
by the canneries
When our people have an opportu-
nifty to make from $40 to $50 per day
on capital of four or five hundred it
is astonishing that there are not hun
dreds of canneries established all over
this section. It beats banking and is
more profitable than tobacco fac
tory.
The demand for canned fruit is
practically unlimited. It is growing
every year, and the time will never
come when canning will not be =
profitable industry to the people in the
central and western part of North
Carolina.
Although some of the fruit in this
elton was killed by frost this year,

A VILE HUMBUG.

We conceive it to be the duty of an
honest newspaper to expose humbugs
wherever found, whether among men
or medicines, consequently we deem it
our duty to call the attention Of our
bretheren of the press to the fact that
they are advertising one of the great
est swindles of the day. We refer to
Radam's Microbe Killer. According
to careful analysis of this so-called
"great discovery" as published in
The Druggists Circular and Chemical
Gazette, it contains:
Oil of Vitriol (impure) drs
Muratic Acid (impure) 10000. ............i DIR.
Spring Water gallon.
This preparation costs about 3 cents,
but is put up in jugs and heralded
throughout the country as "the great
est discovery of the age!' And people
rush to buy it at three dollars per jug
The fact that as long as life exists
there will be germs or microbes in the
human system and that any medicine
which would kill all germs would GER
tainly put an end to life, proves the
claims of this patent-medicine ven
der to be false.
But in addition to this, the Chemi-
coZ Gazette calls attention to the fact
that some microbes flourish in dilute
acid. Consequently, after taking a
dose of the "Microbe Killer" patient
would have microbes in his system
which he didn't have before. \
Further than this, the "Microbe
Killer" is dangerous to health. II
contains Sulphuric Acid, which is a
cumulative poison, and is apt to have
very bad effects unless administered by
physician to those cases in which il
might prove beneficial.
THE SENTINEL was asked for ad.
vertising rates by the Microbe Killer
Company but we declined to furnish
them. So long as we conduct news
paper we propose to keep frauds and
humbugs out of its columns. When
ever we can't publish paper without
the cash which such advertisers pay
then we will retire from the business
Such policy has made THE SEN
TINEL what it is,-a clean paper
which honest advertisers value.

LATE WASHINGTON NEWS.
The Death of Hon. Samuel Randall Deeply
Regretted.

The Death of Hon. Samuel Randall Deeply
Regretted.
WASHINGTON, April 14.--Hon.
Samuel J. Randall, member of Con-
gress from the third district (Phila-
delphia) of Pennsylvania and ex-
Speaker of the House of Representa-
tives, died at his residence on Capitol
Hill yesterday morning just as the
bells of neighboring church were
tolling FIVE o'clock.
A few moments before his death he
had opened his eyes, and looking ten
derby at his wife, who bent over him,
said in low tone, Mother" a word
instinct with all the fondest recollec-
tions Of their long and happy married
life, and by which he always called
his wife when none but the family
were near. He looked into her eyes
as if he were about to say something
more, but he seemed to have no
strength left, and in few moments he
had passed away. Death had come
with the coming of the dawn.
The expression Of regret at Mr..
Randall's death was universal and sim
cere. None paid him higher tributes
of admiration and respect than his
Democratic colleagues in the House
who differed with him vitality upon one
of the most important measures in
Congress.
Representative Roger @. Mills had
not heard Of Mr.. Randall's death when
reporter called about 1 o'clock and
asked his opinion of Mr.. Randall. Mr..
Mills spoke feelingly and earnestly.
"He was very great man., said he,
''a man Of unimpeachable integrity
and natural born leader of men. He
had more of the elements of leadership
than any man have come in contact
with since I have been in public life.
Nothing but his views on the tariff
could have prevented him from being
the leader of the Democratic party.
If lit had not been for that he would
have been nominated for President in
1876" and, said Mr.. Mills, with en-
phasis, che would have been elected
and seated, for he would have asserted
his rights. but when he believed his
opinions were right be would never
change them, no matter what might
happen. I never saw such remarka-
BILE determination; when he set his lips
and brought down that great jaw of
his nothing could change him. Why,
when our tariff bill was up 1 pleaded
with him, urged and begged him to
make some concessions and compro-
mise, but he believed he was right and
could not be moved. When all of his
