OUR WEELY SENTINEL.

We are anxious to largely inn
prove the usefulness and greatly
enlarge the scope of influence OF
our paper. In the latter days OF
December we consummated an
arrangement whereby we ac-
quired the Western Sentinel, an
old established weekly paper of
this community, at an undertake
ing OF fully IS, 900 of fresh obliga-
ton.
We entered upon this undertake
ing with the purpose of furnish
ing a better daily ano weekly
paper. With improved facilities
and enlarged opportunities we
have seen no reason why this
goal ofour ambition should not
be reached. We see none now.
The fire, and it's consequent
loss, that destroyed the office and
plantof the old Daily was a tenn
porary check upon our purpose;
but we are gradually overcoming
that. We are getting on firm
ground again, after a hard strug-
gle to bring order out of chaos.
Without Boosting we can say
to-day that we are sending the
Western Sentinel TO more solvent
subscribers thanit ever enjoyed in
the thirtyfive years of its exist
ence.
Now, the point is this, that
our friends in the city, who wish
to extend their trade, and at the
same time show their apprecia-
ton of our efforts, will consult
the advertising columns of the

vERMONT'S CENTURY.

The hundredth anniversary Of
the admission of Vermont into
the Union has more than a mere
ly local interest, since that State
was the first of the one-and-thir-
ty that have now joined the
original thirteen.
She barely succeeded in carry
ing off this honor of seniority,
for the act admitting Kentucky
vas approved Feb. 4. 1871, and
the enabling measure for Vermont
fully two weeks later; but while
the former was not to take ef-
feet until June 1, 1871, its Con-
stitution not being framed at the
time of it's application for adj
mission, the latter was allowed
to go into operation on the 4th
of March, 1871.
Her first settlement, at Fort
Dunmer, on the site of the pres
ent town of marlborough, had
been as early as 1924, and Cham
plains exploration Of the region
dates back to 1909. Theinhabi
tants badgered by the conflict
ing claims of New York and
New Hampshire to the owner
ship of this territory, had even in
1777 declared themselves indie
pendent, and had adopted II
Constitution under which they
sought admission for Vermont
as q member of the Union.
One week after the approval of
the act admitting Vermont, an
other statute allowed her two;
r Representatives in Congress, the
number she has today. Under
Jefferson she rose to four Repre-

THE UNITED STATES AND IS
REAL.

Events are shaping themselves
for the young but great Western
nation to play an important part
i'll the restoration of old Isreal,
and the reunion of the wandering
people of the scattered nation .
Vim. E. Blackstone, of Chicago,
visited the President in company
with Secretary Blaine and pre-
sented memorial in behalf OF
the Russian Jews. He explained
that the memorial was the esult
of a conference of Christians and
Jews recently held in Chicago,
and called especial attention to
the fact that it did not antagon-
ize Russia, but only sought in "a
peaceable way to give the Jews
control of their homes in Pales-
tine.
He pointed out many evidences
of the possibility of great devel-
opments of that country, both
agricultural and commercially,
under an energetic government,
and said that the railroad build
ing from Joppa to Jerusalem, if
extended to Damascus, Tadmor
and down the Euphrates, can
not fail to become an interna-
tional highway.
He said that the poverty of the
Turkish government gives en-
phasis to proposed indemnity by
funding a portion of the Turkish
national debt through Jewish
capitalists, and that only peac-
cable diplomatic negotiations are
asked for, to the end that all pri-
vate ownership of land and
property be carefully respected
and protected.
In closing he said, that being
on such friendly terms with Rus
STA, and having no complications
in the Orient, it is most fitting
and hopeful that our govern
ment should initiate a friendly
movement to give the wander
ing millions of Israel settled
and permanent home.
The President listened atten-
lively to Mr.. Blackstone's re-
and promised to give the
subject serious consideration.

LEGAL TENDER SILVER.

Fractional silver coins, including
all denominations less than the sill
.:et dollar, are legal tender for all
debts, public and private, to the
amount of $40. The minor coins of
copper and nickel, including the
copper l and 2 cent pieces and the
nickel 3 and 5 cent pieces, are legal
tender only to the amount of 25
cents.
The law of July IA, 1890, requir-
ing the purchase of $4,000 600
ounces of silves per month has the
effect of putting in circulation paper
currency to the amount of the cost
ofthe silver. When the price of sill
yer is at present little less that 81
per ounce, the effect is to increase
the currency of the country little
less than 81, 500, COO per month.
This paper currency is a legal tender
for all amounts. Up to July l, 49,
81, 1000, 900 ounces Of this purchase
must be coined monthly. This
weight of silver will make 1855, 1853
silver dollars, which are added to
the circulation either in coin or in
silver certificates.
After the first of July the Secreta-
ry of the Treasury can increase this
coinage in his discretion Up to the
full amount ofthe monthly purchase.
The effect ofthe present coinage law
is, therefore, to increase the currency
at the rate Of about Sc, O0O, 900 per
month until the first Of July, when
il IS within the power Of the Secre-
tary Of the Treasury 70 increase II IT
the rite Of about IS, SOC, 600 per
month.

The Municipal election in
Mobile, Ala, resulted in an over
whelming victory for the demo-
cratic ticket. The Daily Regis
ter says a gratifying feature of
the election was the fact that
quite a number of colored citi-
zens walked up to the polls with
open mot folded up) democratic
ballots in their hands and voted
them. They wished to show
that they were deeply interested
in the city having a good NUM-
clpal government, and bOubt as
to how they had voted. The

ent and patriotic conduct is
highly appreciated by their white
fellow-citizens and will be re-

Some of our people most assur-
edly put in some good work at
Raleigh for the senatorial dis
trict including Forsyth county.
AS the re-districting bill for the
State Senate was first reported
and promptly passed it looked
as if Forsyth was hopelessly
transferred to the Republican
column for ten years. And mas
much as the time of the legislat-
ure was growing short, and to
effect a change would rip up the
settled arrangement of districts,
our men went to work in the
forlorn hope. They deserve
credit for most gratifying sue
cess.

The New York Tribune chuck
les over the legislative robberies
of the Fiftyfrst Congress. "The
work OF this Congress-" it says,
..'has.been so done that it will
stay DONE" BY this it is meant
that the admission of a lot of
mining camps and ranches has
given its party control of the
Senate, sat all events until Il
new President has been inaugu-
rated in 1893"

WE ENDORSE IT.

We feel easier now that the
Ffty-frst Congress has expired.
There will be no further organ
lied raids upon the public treasu-
ry for some months to come.
There will creep across the land
scape of our free American life in
the future no baleful shadow ola
Force bill. The farmer, who has
been and is being robbed by the
minions of II thieving tariff, will
submit to the processes which
take the bread away from his
children, and prosperity and
hopefullness out of his home,
with a feeling of some slight re-
lief, that the miscreants who set
those nlinions on are dispersed
from the National Capitol, some
of them not to return any more
forever. 1t is some little comfort
to know that the dastards who
have stolen millions of the peo-
pies money to waste it in all
sorts of jobbery have gone away
for time at least to divide and
enjoy their stolen swag. There
are some elements of relief to
overstrained honest natures in
the fact that some of those who
have stood, for the greater part
of two whole years, upon the
elevation of the Congressional
tribune, reeking with every
species of velnality and rotten
ness, are gone away for the time
being from the public gaze into
we know not what places of
darkness, to plot for future
spoliations and robbery, Yes,
we are glad the Fifty first Con-
gress has expired. If it has done
one thing during it's ignoble ex-
itsence to Tighten the weight of
the burdens that press upon the
shoulders of the toiling people,
we do not know what it is. fit
has done one thing to widen the
horizon of hope for the common
people-if it has done one thing
to quicken and encourage the
aspirations of the lowly masses
