A CORRECTION.

Mr.. W. H. WORTH, Business Agent of
the State Alliance, desires the CHRoN-
lCLE to correct an error that has been
circulated that the State Alliance
adopted jute bagging for cotton this
year. The National Alliance recommends
any substitute for jute, and the State
Alliance endorses the demands of the
National Alliance. While jute bagging
has been offered at one-half the price it
Was offered at when the Alliance COM
menced the fight against the jute trust,
the State Alliance did not think it wise
to adopt jute bagging.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-Postmaster
General Wanamaker sent to the House
to-day an answer to resolution adopt
ed by the House on the 10th inst, call
ing for information concerning the case
Of Alexander J Wedderburn.
Mr. Wanamaker stated that the post
office at Grange Camp was discontinued
because Wedderburn, though not post
master there, was IN reality inspector Of
the Office. He was, it is stated, almost
its only patron, and he mailed large
amounts Of matter himself, not paying
any stamp money, and, as a result,
while the receipts of the office during
the time it was in existence amounted
o 81, ,495, the SUN OF 81, 2l5 went to pay

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30, 1904 prom
inent Republican politician who has had
several conversations with the President
on the subject tells me that the Presi-
dent thinks Collector Eaves has been
treated very badly by his party collea-
CUES. He therefore intends to allow him
to remain in Office as collector of West
ern North Carolina district ten days
after the adjournment of the present
Congress, which is the utmost limit of
the law. After that date, whenever that
Is, y new collector will be appointed and
nice place will be found for Eaves as a
further reward for his distinguished
services TO the G.. O p. during the last
campaign. A consolidation of the two
districts under the collectorship of Mr.
White was Sed by a number Of Repub-
lican party leaders two or three months
ago The President vetoed the plan
most emphatically.
~
The Election bill is dead, perhaps be-
yond the hope of resurrection. If, how
ever, the fall elections roll up suffi
cient Democratic majority to cause q
panic among the Republicans here, the
corpse may be galvanized. There is one
powerful motive which will influence the
leading Republicans against the bill. l,
is this, Quay, Cameron, Hurst, Spooner
aud other moneyed Senators, have large
pecuniary interests south of Mason anC
Dixon's line. The business interests O
the North are also understood to be in
imical to the bill.
The Lafayette statue, which is said tt
be masterpiece, has just arrived from
France, and will soon be placed upon it
pedestal in Lafayette square. This sit
ls too near the equestrian statue of Gen
eral Jackson, and it is thought that tn,
effect will be so inartistic that Congress
will have to move one of the two.

Never in the history of this place has boom

principal street. is fast assuming a city air. and
the streets are being extended in all directions.
Broad avenues have been laid out extending a
mile to the southwark To the west several
hundred acres have recently been laid out in
lots and upon them already many fine
houses and others in course of construction.
To the eastward what were short time ago
pasture fields are now being dotted with hand
some and inviting homes. Mrs. r. T. Veirs has
sold to Mrs. Mary l.. Hughes a lot in West End
Park for $500 last month Mrs Neirs paid $500 for
this lot. Messrs. Ahern, Cummin and CULVER

tract of land at the west end of town from
Mrs. Sarah McCahill. have subdivided the
same into building lots. DR.. j. +. Owens has
commenced the erection of fine brick resi-
dence on his lot at the west end of town. The

| years.

Ffthceu 10 sucn degree as 10 render the next
basis of taxation much larger than heretofore.
/ Mr.. Dorsey W. Offutt has completed the
erection OF fine residence on the Georgetown
! turnpike near this place, which will soon be
occupied by himself and family. The new resi-
dence of Chas. B. Jones at the west end is ap-
preaching completion and when finished will
be an ornament to that section of the town.
