GOOD ADVICE.

Men who have succeeded can give
good advice. Those who have failed
make good critics. And generally the
critics are those who have failed To-
day THE GLOBE prints letter from Mr..
w. DUKE, written to the members of one
Of the colored churches in this city, in
response to an invitation to address
them. MR.. DUKE rarely makes speech,
and for this reason he addressed the let
ter. In plain, vigorous language he tells
the people to whom he wrote how to
succeed. And no better advice was ever
given to young men-white or black
than will be found in Mr.. DUKES letter
elsewhere printed to-day. Be sober, be
industrious, be frugal, be gentlemaply in
conduct. This is what Mr.. DUKE says,
and it is what will win.
Mr.. DUKE is essentially man who can
give advice. He has lived in the world
until its winters have frosted his locks ;
he has battled as young man with pow
erty, and as an old man he is enjoying
the fruits of his younger days. He labored,
he saved, he was honest and frugal. This
has been his history, and the magnif-
cent brick manufacturing establishments,
credit good for any amount and bank
account to meet all wants and all demands
these things show conclusively that he
has solved the problem of success in life
and carries the proposition that his ad-
vice must be good.
Save something from your earnings il
only dollar a week This is what MR.
DUKE says and this is the secret of sue
cess. Save something each week, and in
bank it does not take long for interest
to pile up and your principal is doubled
But all the way through the article
elsewhere printed will be found the road
to success. 1t is written in language that
all can understand, and THE GLOBE is
glad to be able to present it to his readers
WAKE county routed the republicans
from pit to dome. And it was ever thus
FARMER JOE DANIELS claims all the
credit. The staid and able News and
Observer, the wonderful speeches by able
men had nothing to do with it. FAR
MER DANIELS did it all, and he wants
everybody to know it. FARMER DAN
IELs is making people who think very
tired.

THE SIDEWALK QUESTION.

THE GLOBE man went before the town
commissioners last night and with few
remarks stated the object of his visit.
First he was there professionally to report
the action of that body. In the second
place he wanted to present list of names
some two hundred and fifty citizens,
who were in favor of the merchant en-
joying part of the sidewalk. There was
no speech making. The old man Of this
shop did not see any occasion for speech
making. He wanted rather to plainly
state his case; to insist upon a general
proposition that is true, which is that no
other city Of the size of Durham in the
civilized world places such restrictions
around merchants, and he wanted finally
to ask the board, as board to yield a
part of the point, modify the ordinance
and let the merchant have at least two
feet of his own sidewalk.
The names were left with the clerk,
and it is understood that at the next meet
ing of the board the question will be set
tied one way or another.
In this connection THE GLOBE desires
to thank Mr.. CARRINGToN for the part
he took. The other members have not
yet expressed themselves. Mr.. CARING
TON was in favor of allowing the mer-
chants two feet on Main street and a foot
and half on Mangum street. This
would be in the way of progression, and
if we mistake not at the next meeting of
the board, the gentlemen composing it
will follow the prayer of the signers to
THE GLOBE ballots and grant them some
space. At least in this hope we shall
await the action of the meeting two weeks
from last night.

The purchase by the First National
bank of the corner on Main and Corcoran
street, upon which will be erected $685.
900 building, is the exhibition of straw
that indicates the blowing of the wind in
this city. In the first place, the new
building will be stately and imposing. 1t
takes the place of an old landmark, a
building that belongs to smaller places.
In the second place, it shows that the
bank buying it is prospering. When a
bank does well, no better evidence Of
general prosperity is wanting. All the
banks of Durham are increasing their
capital and deposits In the third place,
bankers and men owning bank stock do
not pay fancy prices for dirt. They
know, if any one knows, the value of a
lot in the city in which they are doing
business. The price paid for this lot was
$3.50 a front foot Who would have
thought two years ago when the failures
came; when the town was down to its
lowest water-mark, and all men felt blue,
that to-day property would be selling at
such a price per front foot? No man
dreamed such dream in those days
On every hand are gratifying signs
that Durham is on the upward road.
People who have lived here for years do
not notice as stranger does, the general
expression Of the people. All are hope
full. Most all are prosperous. Within
we are sanguine and without men are
turning their eyes this way.
1t is not wind-it not idle talk, when
THE GLOBE, says that within two years
this town will be more than doule. Every
honest indication is for more than that.
The move Of the First National is COM
mendable, and while it shows enterprise,
there is no less an exhibition of business
about the transaction that should give us
all renewed hope.
The Durham daily globe., 1890-11-05
THE KIND OF ENTERPRISE

The town commissioners last night
reached out in the way of progression
A week ago THE GLOBE was talking
about an electric alarm system for fires,
and some people hooted the idea. They
said we had no business with such new
tangled business. They wanted to re-
main in the ruts and quagmires of in
activity.
Last night at the meeting of the town
board, Mr.. PEAY made a motion that the
city adopt system of electric fire alarms
and Mr.. HEARTT was On his feet in a
minute to second the motion. He thought
that it was business. 1t was keeping pace
with the growing city, it made securer
what buildings we had and reduced in
surance rates. His second to the motion
met with no opposition. The clerk was
instructed to at once commence cores
ponding with different companies and
get propositions for the system. The
plant will cost perhaps two thousand
dollars. This will make some of them
squirm. But the board displayed a com
mendable spirit of enterprise and did the
proper thing. There was no wrangling.
When a motion was made to inquire into
the water service, again a unanimous vote
was given to bring the water company to
time. \ fireman, one of the volunteer
boys, was hurt in the fire at the Parrish
building and lost a weeks work. Very
promptly the board allowed him his
weeks wages from the general fund
THE GLOBE wants to say that such
meeting did its heart good. 1t did not
get what it wanted last night in the way
of the sidewalk display. but it ascertained
the fact the commissioners are willing to
listen to reason and will yield any point
if respectable majority of the people
ask them TO do it.
The electric fire alarm viii soon be

A CONFESSION.


THE GLOBE is printed every even
ing-Sunday excepted. 1t prints all
the local news; it prints three col
umns of editorial slush daily. THE
GLOBE is independent-not neutral 1t is
honest and fearless and fair. 1t recognizes no
faction, ring or clique. 1t talks politics when
IL feels like it, and will point out an abuse. no
matter in which party ii may be
found. 1t is not conceited, but ex-
poets to make enemies and it will
not be satisfied unless it does. 1t
will oppose VnSpg and always commend Right
with as muci Eor as it is able to command.
THE GLopr ltes comparison with other pa
pers pubklslM in the South. It's religion is TO
DOC AbD. It's politics is to Build
Up the South. THE GLOBE accords
to every living person the right to
an pPinion, and will respect it, but
at the SAM time it demands the right to ex
press its ;e.Gn opinion and does not care whether
it is respected or not. In the upbuilding of
Durham and in the fight for the New South,
THE GLOBE will always be found
right. On other questions it will try
to be right, but being human may
err. 1t asks the patronage of all
classes, and promises decent treatment to all
citizens who deserve decent treatment. 1t is
not muzzed 1t is owned by the editor and he
will pay his bills 1t is not mendcant and is
not turning hand-organ labeled, Il
am blind If you want it, we want
you to have it. If you don't want
it, you had better not take it. The
price is six dollars a year-fifty cents per
month-and we want the cash in advance if
you have it with you.
The Durham daily globe., 1890-11-05

another improvement in the city; Mr..
HEARTT and other members insited that
the sidewalk question be met and repairs
made one way or another. This is all i'm
the way Of life and energy and business,
and we will pin our faith to the present
board, until they disappoint US in rea-
sonable demands. If We should make an
unreasonable demand and it were thrown
out, then we would not blame the board.
To this date we believe it is a level
headed body of men.
The Durham daily globe., 1890-11-05

DURHAM is to have an electric fire
alarm system, and we are on the right
road to have what we long ago should
have had-a paid fire company. The
fire boys should receive some pay.

THE merchants of Durham have re-
sponded nobly to THE GLOBES special

but is running over with bright and in
teresting reading matter.

BY vote of the board of aldermen,
manual training has been introduced into
the graded school at Charlotte. Five
hundred dollars has been appropriated
for tools and the school board is author
lied to employ a teacher at one thousand
dollars year to give instructions in me-
chanical drawing and wood work. This
is a move in the right direction. Under
the old system two much time was de-
voted to terminating the dust of lost arts
and dead languages, and too little to the
practical needs and necessities of life.
THE results of the election, as is always
the case on the second day, or properly
the first day, give no satisfaction. Both
sides in doubtful states claim the whole
business So far as can be learned from
our advices, the democrats have made
gains over the entire country. This is
merely rebuke to Tom REEDIsM and
the MCKINLEY robbery. This paper be-
lieves that the MCKINLEY bill will wreck
the republican party. When the re-
turns are in from the prairie states in the
far West, we predict that the Democrats
will have made great gains. When it is
considered that those states are filled
with old Union soldiers, who draw pen
sions from the common people, the re-
suit of yesterday is most gratifying.

MINORITY REPRESENTATI
A Wise Suggestion to the State Con.
VentiOn.

VcntlOus
Especial Cor. STATE CHRoNICLE.l
Every good citizen is anxious to have
the will Of the people obeyed. Their
wishes should be fairly represented in
all political conventions It should be
the aim of every true man to do all in
his power to secure such representation
Under the present plan of organization
of the Democratic party, it is often the
case that in State, Congressional and
Judicial conventions the votes are not
cast in accordance with the wishes of
the delegates of the primary and county
conventions, and very aften minorities
have no representation whatever in the
higher conventions. 1t is 30 be hoped
that the State convention, which con-
yenes in this city next Wednesday, will
see that the plan of organization is so
changed as to INSURE MINORITY REPRE-
sENTATIoN. l would also suggest some
amendment to section one, under the
head of General Rules, in the present
plan of organizations. The section reads
thus: "Such delegates Cor alternates OF
absent delegates) as may be present at
any Democratic convention, shall be al
lowed to cast the whole vote to which
their township or county may be entl-
tied" Often the delegates for some rea-
son are unable to attend, and those at
tending cast the whole vote contrary to
the wishes of absent delegates. | trust
the convention will take steps to prevent
such evils from occurring hereafter
