her Election.

| The man who was nominated here by
the democrats OF the Ninth district yes
tcrday is cheering example of what can
be done by n determined mind when the
odds seem all against him.
William Tccumsch Crawford was born
on farm in HAYWOOD county in 1856
| As soon as he was able to do so, hc
worked hard in the field until he was
about eighteen wears old, when he was
taken with n desire to go to school and
.ca,n something. Young Crawford went
to the public school until twenty years OF
age, at the same time keeping up his
share of the work on the farm. AT the
age Oi twcnty-tour he advanced to the
position oi teacher of a country school
Soon after this he entered the academy
at Wayncsvillc, studying whenever the
duties Of his own school would allow
him. The course at the academy was
completed in so. and then MIR. Crawford
cmigratcd To Colorado, where he hccngagcd
in farming. Before he had been in that
country very long, however, he came to
the conclusion that Western North Caro-
lima with its mountains and hills was tn,
better place of the two to make money
and enjoy life in. So he pulled up his
stakes in Colorado and came to Wavncs-
willie. There he engaged in mcrcantil,
business for some time and in 1854 was
elected to the legislature, carrying the
county by 800 majority. He served two
years in that capacity and was reelected
in 1856. After two more years service in
the legislature, he was. in 1883, chosen
clector OF his district. His majority oven
Waddell in that contest was 800.
In lSSS Mr., Crawford was made en-
crossing clerk OF the house of represent
ativcs. Since that time Iic has studied |
law at the University law school nj |
Chapel Hill, standing highest in his class
Mr. Crawford is a very pleasant gen

Gen. Wheeler's Seeds.

Strangers in the House gallery, says the cor.
respondent CT the New York Tribune, are apt
to inquire, when gazing down upon the mem.
bers OF the popular branch of congress, if Gen.
Wheeler of Alabama happens to be on the
floor, Who is that mite of a man, so full of
energy:" and when told that it is none other
than Gen. ice" Wheeler, they eau hardly be.
lieve that so diminutive specimen of manhood
was during the civil war major general of
cavalry, and figured in some of the greatest
battles that were waged.
Gen. Wheeler is a nervous, indefatigabe man
~ congress, and ION the CO. constantly. He
introduces more bills than the average member
and this season has distanced everybody in
sending out garden aud flower seeds to rural
constituents. The other day a clerk to q city
member approached the general and handed
him a note. The Albanian read the contents
eagerly and said:
Yes, tell Mr.. - that will take his allow
ance of seed
Then turning to the writer he said:
That makes $1,000 packages of seed have
obtained this session have traded for some,
but most OF the packages have been pur-
chased"
member of congress is allowed about 5000
packages OF seed a year at the department of
agriculture, bat such an allowance would ap-
parently not satisfy Gen. Wheeler's constitu-
ents under the policy that he has inaugurated.

en- Experim emit With a Bride.

bridal couple took the train from Buffalo
Tor Philadelphia, and it was generally re-
marked, says New York Sun correspondent,
that they conducted themselves as well as
could be expected under the circumstances.
After about four hours ride the groom got off
at S. alton where short stop was made, say
ing TO the bride that he wanted to speak to q
man, but saying to one of the boys on the quiet:
When the train starts I'll get in the car be-
mind, and she III think was lsft. Then look out
TO see her go into fits I'll appear on the scene
In time to prevent consequences"
The programme was carried out. AS the train
started drummer rushed into the car and
pumped himself down beside the bride without
question, and in five minutes he was talking
about the weather, Buffalo, Philadelphia, and a
dozen other things She grew interested at
once, and did not even appear to think of her
newly-made husband. The latter waited a
quarter OF an hour, and then sneaked into the
car. He expected TO find her half dead with
anxiety, but she wasn't. She was talking in a
very animated way, and when he came forward
she looked up and sand:
That you, James. l thought you were left
Sit down back there somewhere"
And for two hours he ''sot. - while that drum
mer held the fort. and every body was tickled to
death. Later on one OF the boys said to him:

sazannan.s Railroad Boom.

Now that il is quite cert1in that in the
very near future Savannah will have
twenty-six feet of water from her wharves
to the sea, the prospect that she will become
the seaboard outlet for a very large portion
of the south ahd west is more promising
than ever before. She is, of course. already
the port for a large section of country, but
the Improvement of her harbor will so
lessen freight rates that she will rapidly
approach New Orleans in commercial i'm
portance.
Two or three years ago it was not thought
that she would have any more railroads
soon. The outlook for more was not very
encouraging. Within the last year or two.
however. the Alabama Midland has been
built, reaching this city over the Savannah,
Florida and Western. and also the Thomas
vile and Monticello opening new route to
Florida. The Savannah and Western will
be completed within a few days, and will
connect with the Savannah, Americas and
Montgomery line at Sterling, thus opening
a new route to the southwest.
The South Bound is certain to he finished
within year The construction company,
which is TO build it, will begin work within
week or two. 1t is preparing for active
operations. Its purpose ia to build from
Savannah, crossing the river somewhere
near Sisters ferry. 1t may be stated that the
building of the South Bound has practically
been begun. Doubtless enough of it will be
completed by the beginning of the next
cotton season to bring a good many thous-
an0S of haIo- Of IN Savannah from
territory not now tributary to her.
But what about the Middle Georgia and
Atlantic and the Savannah and Birmingham
roads, concerning which there has been so
much said in the newspapers recentlya Will
they be builtG 1t seems to be safe to say
that they will. The managers of both of
these enterprises have been in Savannah
within week and have convinced the peo-
pie here that they are very much in earnest.
They were prepared to make definite prop
ositions. and it is positively asserted that
one of them received assurances that
his road could have the money it
wanted. The other road has strong friends
in Savannah and there is reason for think
ing that it will receive substantial aid. In
one of the railroad meetings this week it
was stated that one OF the foregoing roads
could obtain in Savannah ten times the
amount 1. asked for. From this it appears
that the confidence in SavGInah's pros
perity is very strong.
The other day the MORNING NEWS called
attention to the fact that a charter had
been obtained for the Savannah and 0conee
road. The impression is that this road is
going to be built. Its projectors are reti-
cent, but there is money in building it, and
they are shrewd business men.
Does it not look as if Savannah were
having railroad boom. What other city
in the state, or in the south, can make as
good showing in the matter of railroads!

Minus q Hog,

A thrifty but obtuse German, who owns a
small farm in Jefferson, says the Chicago Her
aid, has decided recently that he will only deal
with his own people in the future. Not lone
ago Connecticut man purchased a farm nexi
to his, and one day he bought sheep of his
German neighbor. agreeing to pay him for it In
thirty days About two weeks later he called
on the German and traded him the sheen for q
hog. At the end of the month the German
went around after his money. Money for
what?" asked the yank. ivy, fer de sheen .
replied the German. Why, you've got yonr
sheep" said the Connecticut man. Il traded
him with you for a hog, didn't II" The German
nodded and then asked for pay for the hog
why should pay you for the hog" asked the
yankee, when l traded you the sheep for him 81
The German looked bewildered and said he
must have pay for the sheep. Now. WHY
should pay you for what haven't got ~ asked
his neighbor. We'll, den | want pay yer INV
hog The yankee smiled compassionately.
Didn't you trade me the hog for the Sheep
he asked The German nodded, looked tired.
and said: Dots a - of a way to do pizness -
Hereafter he will deal with his own people.

Beware of Gossins.

DIR. Rylance, the distinguished rector Of
st. Marks churehs New York city. can
now look the msuzbers of his congregation
in the face without feeling that some of
them regard him as an mineral man. For
several months there were whisperings in
his parish that tended to destroy his repata-
ton, and finally charges of immortality were
openly made against him. The charges
appeared in the newspapers, and the public
became aware Of the fact that one or more
prominent members Of his church had placed
themselves in a position to be responsible for
the charges. The doctor discovered that these
members claimed to have In their possession
evidence that would compel him to resign
from the ministry. To show that he was an
innocent man ne demanded an investigation,
and when that was denied him he brought
a libel suit against the chief Of his accusers.
The suit was not defended and he was
awarded $4,000 as damages. Bishop Pot
ter then ordered an investigation, the re-
suit Of which has not yet been announced,
but it is certain that it will be wholly in his
favor.
The chief of his accusers is lawyer of
considerable prominence, and at the in
vestigation he admitted that he had put his
trust in certain women, and that they were
not in a position to prove the statements
they had made. There was, therefore, no
evidence against DR.. Rylance, and the only
thing the bishop can do is to announce that
so far as he knows DR.. Kylance is one of the
purest men in the ministry.
The lawyer who is chiefly responsible for
the attacks upon DR.. Rylance's reputation,
appears to have given too much weight to
idle and malicious talk. He probably has
some grievance against DIR. Rylance, and
was only too glad to listen to the stories
which the gossips reported about him. He
has received lesson which, probably, he
will not soon forget. 1t is not wise TO give
credence to every idle tale that Injuries the
regulations OF persons. Tales of that kind
pass from one to another in almost every
community. As a general thing they are
SANDERS.
