Auk6cracy.

: One of-the strangest things about
the present Legislature is the auto
sracy established by Senator Gardner.
It appears that he is the supreme
lrbiter of all legislation. He may not
be able to dictate what bills shall
pass; but his veto is more powerful
than that of the Governor, for when
he says No. his followers in the
Senate dare not vote in the affirma-
tive.
This predominating influence is due
akastwo causes. First is the weakness
he Republican party in the Sem
Gardner is the only Republican
"a that body who is endowed with
any brains worth speaking of or any
lorce of character at all.
The second cause is the position
which Gardner holds as chartered
railway agent. The Republican party
and all its members being wholly
dominated by corporate influence. the
word of Gardner is as the mandate of
d master to his colleagues, who are
mere puppets in his hands,
The resulting conditions are some
what subversive of constitutional
IDEAS, somewhat harmful to the peo-
pie of the State. 1t was hardly con-
iemplated when the plan Of the State
government was $780, that a single

Little Women Shouldn't Wear Tall Hats
Little women with large heads very
often think they will look taller if
they'wear large hats and a fluffy ar
sangement of the hair. This is a fall
lacy, and instead of looking taller
they will only appear the shorter,
The reason is very simple. Their
height is only about six lengths of the
head. Naturally, by increasing the
size of the head the disproportion will
be greater, as then their figure will
appear to be only five times the
length of their head. Little women
should veal small hats and simple
hair dress.

Gasoline is the best fuel for summer.
But one must be careful when using
it. A stove with a double burner for
wash boiler and oven and two single
burners costs about SIG. Two and
one-half gallons of gasoline, at a shill-

A Pretty work Basket.

A pretty piece of handiwork, which
can be made at small expense, is a
work basket for holding embroidery
or crochet work. The Japanese lunch
basket forms the basis and costs only
a few cents. 1t is simply two baskets
pushed one over the other, like a box
cover. Line both of these with China
silk in contrasting colors, say apple
green for one and pink for the other.
Put a layer of cotton batting in the
bottom, and the silk shirred loosely
around the baskets. Then set them
side by side and fasten together with
inch-wide ribbons in both shades of
silk. One basket is fitted up in dainty
fashion with tiny pockets for needles,
silk, thimble, and SO forth, while the
other holds the work. 1t is the dainti-
est little affair of its kind imaginable.
A sprinkling of sachet powder put
within the lining is an added charm,
more especially If ones own favorite
perfume is used. Nothing could be
prettier for an Easter offering.-NeW-
ark Eoening Nea0s.
Mrs. Hearst's Fondness for Society.
Senator Hearst is not given to So
ciety. He is, OF the contrary, in
clined to get away from fine people
and fine houses. But Mrs. Hearst is
fond of social life, fond of young
people and fond of keeping about her
pretty yong women as her seasons
guests. The Senator evidently en-
joys having his wife do all these
things, and he is proud OF her, with
very good reason. She is a handsome
woman, and strikingly of the Spanish
type. Mrs. Hearst admits that she
takes the best of care of herself, and
this she considers every woman's duty.
Her complexion is dark, but wonder
fully soft and clear: her eyes are dark
and expressive, her hair is dark and
shining, and worn as smooth as satin.
She is slightly below medium height,
with a slender, graceful figure. Her
voice is low and her manner exceed
ingly quiet, gentle and easy. Senator
Hearst is in his SEVENTEEN year. His
wife looks scarcely half his age.
Taking good care of herself has taken
a good many years off her personal
appearance Washington Letter.

About Cotton Ties.

The tax on cotton ties has been raised
from 35 per cent. to 1O3.71 per cent. un.
der the Mckinley tariff bill. 1t will
"check imports" " effectually and cotton
ties hereafter will probably cost at least
S2O3.7l for a quantity worth S100. Ties
now cost from 2 to cents per pound.
With entire control of the market the
manufacturers can make the price as high
as they choose, and should imports begin,
they can reduce the price and ruin any
body who has temerity TO engage in i'm
porting, just as the manufacturers of
quinine did when they had tax on that
article There are five to six ties to a
bale of cotton. There are 1000, 600 bales
produced in the South, and II 900, 900 in
the world of unmanufactured cotton.
We exported in the year ending June
3Oth, 1890, 1896, ,543 bales of short staple,
or 2, 1862, $40, ,O34 pounds. We exported
24,37O bales of sea island cotton, or 9,221 :
819 pounds, the total value being $751;
100000. The disadvantage at which this
tax places us in the foreign market is
thus apparent. The manufacturers can
easily add so cents to each bale of cotton.
That amount will turn the scale in any
market in the world. This is Republican
friendship for the negro, who works the
cotton.-Rdleigh Chronicle.

IS Andrew Carnegie is quoted as
saying in recent speech at Dundee /;
Scotland, that the annual salary of the
Prince of Wales-$575, ,00O-was enough
to keep 10000 people. Inasmuch as this
is less than $40 year for each individual,
it would seem that Mr.. Carnegie's ideas
of what it costs to support person with
the necessaries of life are somewhat
peculiar. Perhaps the high tariff million
aire was thinking of what the working
classes might some day be compelled to
endure if the manufacturers continue to
grow rich upon the profits wrung from
ill-paid labor.-Chicdqo NeaUS.

A Negro Killed at Religious Meeting of
Negroes in South Carolina.

COLUMBIA, S. c., October 17.-Primus
Jones, was killed Sunday morning at
Sumpter, S. G. A protracted meeting
was held by the negroes at Beulah church
and the greatest excitement prevailed.
1t was at first reported that Primus had
been offered as sacrifice to the Holy
Ghost, because Of his incredulity. Deputy
coroner, J. A. Norris, held an inquest at
the church. The testimony showed that
in perfect frenzy of fanaticism Jones
was killed by Rev. A. 81. Durant, the
negro pastor, and one Richard Campbell,
a prominent member of the church, be-
cause the deceased had expressed doubts
about the supernatural power of Durant
to kill and restore to life, and that was a
test case, but the experiment failed. A
large number of Durants congregation
believed that he possessed supernatural
power until his failure in this csse. The
finding was that Jones was killed and
murdered by Richard Campbell and A
H. Durant. The jury was composed OF
intelligent colored men, and the coroner
complimented them on their verdict. The
prisoners are in Jail.

passed Vo miles west of here about 4
o'clock this afternoon doing great damage.
We first heard of it two miles south of
Hasty's station three miles southwest
of Maxton near the State line on the Cape
Fear and Yadkin Valley. Four tenement
houses were blown down there. One color
ed person was killed and several wounded.
Its path was from eighty to two hundred
yards broad and everything destroyed in
its way. At Campbells bridge, three
miles northeast of Maxton, the saw mill
of Mr.. A. McKinnon was destroyed and
a colored man slightly hurt. At Floral
college house occupied by Jim Bethea,
colored, was demolished. Three children
were in the house, two escaped unhurt; a
boy had his thigh broken and head
severely cut by falling timbers. The
beautiful grove at Floral College was
ruined

A GOOD WAY.-Democratic stumpers
in the West have adopted simple but
very effective mode of campaigning.
They carry with them bag of samples
of the necessaries of life for women and
men, each sample having three tags
attached to it, on which are marked the
price thereof under the old tariff and
under the new tariff, and what would be
the price of them with no tariff. These
samples. with the attached tags, they
expose on table, preach from the text
thus laid down, and challenge the Repub-
women folks, it is said, examine the sam.
pies and tags critically, and when they
get home tell the. men that a dollar would
go much further toward the support of
the family under Democratic law than
under the Republican high tarin.-Aler-
