The nomination of ex-AttorneyGeneral Les
lie W. Russell for Judge of the Supreme Court
in the Nth Judicial District will create a
vacancy in the Office of Congressman for the
Jeffeson-S' Lawrence District. The Democ-
racy can build no hopes upon this fact, how
ever. The district is normally strongly Repub-
lican, and Mr.. Russell was elected last year by
a plurality of nearly 5000. The election of a
Congressman in that district this year will in
some sense serve as test of public opinion in
the State on the chief issue in the last cam
paign. The Republicans are bound to win, but
at the same time they ought to put forward
their strongest candidate.

Although the prospect for an abundant crop Of
fall apples is excellent, reports from New-England
regarding winter apples are not so encouraging
To the casual observer however, the orchards
look promising and there is at least the possibility
that the growers of apples have taken their cue
from the peach men and are inclined to be oearish
without good reason. Lovers of apples had such
a hard time last winter and had to pay such high
prices for poor fruit that they cannot but hope
for plenty of apples of all good varieties this year

The advice to farmers to lay by part OF the

The conductor and fagman who were respon-
sible for the recent wreck on the West Shore
Railroad, and who disappeared Immediately after
the catastrophe, have been found and are now
under arrest 1t is to be hoped that the pros
ecuting authorities will take vigorous action in
the matter and will lose no time in ascertainins
all the facts and laying them before the Grand
Jury. If the accounts of the accident which
have already been made public are correct, there
is no doubt that these men were guilty of most
cupable neglect. 1t will be well to have an
example made Of them as a warning to railroad
employees generally of their continual RESPONSE
bility and Of the absolute need Of obeying rules
and orders to the letter. Even the most perfect
system of rules will avail nothing unless the per-
SONS amenable to them fully informed re-
garding them and careful to follow them in all
respects

Plenty of fruit at prices within the reach of
all is the rule in the markets of this metropolis
at present. The contrast between last year and
this is most striking. A year ago New-York
was almost wholly dependent ON California for
pears, peaches, ETC.. but now the Eastern grow
ers have practically monopoly Of the field

Bathing in diluted sewage, which is said to be
inevitable considering the location Of some of the
public baths, is something which the authorities
should do all in their power to prevent According
to Sanitary Inspector Doty's report. some baths
are fit to be used only at high tides, and others
are not fit to be used at all. In sense, this is
gross outrage upon large section of the COM
munity These baths should be located in the
best possible places which means, of course, as
far from the mouths of the sewers as they can
be placed.

An enterprise that should prove of the great
est practical value to the poorer people of the
city is approaching completion. On Monday
the Peoples Baths will be opened in Centre
Market Place, having been constructed through
the liberalty of the Association for Improving
the Condition of the Poor and some of its
friends These baths are not a charity since
a charge of s cents is to be made for the use Of
them. The charge is hardly more than NOM
nal, and can scarcely keep away any who de-
sire % enjoy the benefits OF the place. The
baths will be open on Sunday as well as during
the rest of the week, and deserve to be largely

The presence of the New-York "booders" IN
Canada seems to have demoralized the community
Ever since they took up their residence and lived
in apparent abundance at fashionable hotels, stories
affecting the credit Of Canadian officials nave
been frequently told and recent statements and
confessions make it apparent that there is wide
spread corruption among Canadian politicians.
The punishment, insufficient as it was, which some
Of the aldermen met with seems to have made
New-York officials more careful but the Canadians
saw only the success and prosperity of the exiles
who have returned and who remain UNPUBLISHED.

1T PAYS TO TALK.

The following from the News and Cb-
server shows that il pays to advertise in
this country and in the papers:
We think we have the smallest man in
America residing here in Raleigh in the
person of JAMES LANIER. He is 81 years
old, three feet six inches high, weighs
424 pounds, is perfect in form, sound in
body and enjoys good health. He has a
sister living in Burlington, n. c., who is
a little taller than himself. We think he
and his sister are smaller than Tom
THUMB and his wife, who travelled over
the world and made a fortune at exhibit
ing themselves.
The little people above referred to are
about to be restored to a long lost uncle.
1t is COLONEL LANIER, who is a COM
position in this office, and who weighs
300 pounds before eating. After eating,
if the hotel authorities are to be relied
upon, the colonel weighs about 400
pounds.
This particular COLONEL LAN1ER was
born in the South Sea Islands, and at the
tender age of three months was lost in
the Red Sea. He foated around for sew
eral years, living on seaweed and alliga-
tors. He struck Durham and that ended
it. 1t was this colonel who introduced
the alligator shoe. He was in a swamp
one day and in attempting to kick the
alligators which beset him, fastened a
pair on his feet. He walked out and has
since worn the alligators.
COLONEL LANIER says that he pro-
poses to get his nephew and start a one
ringed circus. He will exhibit the little
fellow in the Main tent and exhibit him
self in the side show.
We only refer to these things to show
that there is real virtue in printers ink
and that this long separation of nephew
and uncle has been brought about
through the wide circulation of our es-
teemed and able contemporary, the
Raleigh News and Observer. For full
and further particulars see small bills.

NOT INVITING.

Did it ever occur to you what a tough
old world this must be to the Methodist
preachers? 1t didn't, Ell? Well, think
about it for a while and then say if you
do not think so.
The different conferences are now on
or are just closing, and the preacher is
absolutely in the hands of his bishop.
One may be willing and wanting to stay
in a certain place, but that makes no diff
ference. The bishop says his say and
that goes.
A year may have been pleasantly passed
in forming new acquaintance and in
grasping the brands from the burning
but then the acquaintance which be-
come old acquaintance make no differ
ence-the brands which were snatched
are accepted as a matter Of course and
the weary jog goes on.
A preacher has no particular house
hold goods in the way of furniture-that
is, n Methodist preacher has not-for if
he did they would all be broken and
ruined In the yearly move. He simply
takes life as his schedule reads-he goes
here and he goes there and he gets cussed
roundly or praised loudly-he knows not
which will come and he does not seem to
care.
1t appears that he is doing the best he
can, and that is about all any of us could
do-whether inside or outside the church.
This is to us a lot of foolishness. The
Presbyterian preacher or the Baptist
preacher tries his lot and if he suits he
stays and if not he knows it and he takes
his staff in hand and journeys on. 1t
would seem that some ministers can do
more with some communities than
others.
Religion should be made a business
is popular and who builds up his church
he should be allowed to say whether or
not he should remain. 1t was the Great
Book itself which says that by their
works We shall know them. But not so
with the Methodist preacher. If a man
is running a business and employs a man
who is popular and who adds to his
trade that man is kept ever if salaries
must be advanced. But no matter about
the preacher. He can be shifted here
and there-and with due respect to the
loyal and fearless ones, We can ONLY
compare them to a switch engine on the
railroad tracks.
They switch the sinners here and
there-bat they may be called to the

Notwithstanding the fact that pious
George Watts, who made such ado over
the fact that he had purchased Durham's
school bonds, and who finally refused to
take them because Of a miserable one
per cent which be was not to get and
upon which he had figured, we are
happv to state that the bonds have been
sold and that the first brick in Durham's
graded school building has been laid.
1t is pleasing to know that the bond
purchase was unlike the same mans
1900 contribution to the Y. NJ. G. A,
and no begging was required.

and will be built-WATTS or no WATTS

Thanksgiving Proclamation.

Praise and thanksgiving to God as
required by his word is the daily duty of
all individuals, and as a commonwealth
it is but fit and proper that we should en-
stated occasions, as a people, render unto
him, the great ruler of the universe, our
united praise and thanksgiving for the
many blessings and mercies we daily
receive at his hands.
To him we owe our civil institutions
and our religious liberty which bring
happiness and numberless blessings alike
to the rich and poor. The people Of u
| state have much to be thankful for. The
earth has yielded up her treasures with
a bounteous hand and peace, prosperity
and happiness prevail within our borders
Now, therefore, that public acknowl-
edgement of our trust in and gratitude
to. Almighty God for His great goodness
to us as a state and people may be made,
I, Thomas NJ. Holt, Governor of North
Carolina, do hereby appoint Thursday,
the Goth day of November, 1891, as a day
of general thanksgiving and praise, and
| earnestly request the people of the state
to assemble on that day, at their usual
places of worship, and offer up their
thanks for the innumerable blessings and
great prosperity we enjoy.
And at the same time let US remember
the widow and the orphan, the disabled
soldier, the poor and afflicted in our
prayers, and contribute of our substance
to those institutions which our people
have established for their maintenance
In witness whereof, I have hereunto
set my hand and caused to be aft xed the
great seal of the State of North Carolina,
at the City of Raleigh, this the 10Th day
of November, in the year of our Lord,
one thousand eight hundred and ninety
one, and in the one hundred and sixteenth
year of our American Independence.

fore the last alliance Legislature who is
all things to all men, and a sneak on
general principles, to say that he did not

has not grown any during its second

has dwindled amazingly in the two states

dent activity and strength. 1t is likely
that it will cut no greater figure in the
next presidential election than did the
greenbackers when they entered the
arena with a national ticket. In fact,
with the sub treasury and cheap money
schemes as the distinctive principles on
which it will enter the contest next year,
it is nothing but the old greenback party
galvanized into semblance of life.
