A CHANCE FOR OUR STATE.

$500, O0O-that is on the far western
coast.
THE GLOBE could cite a half hundred
cases of where other states and cities
had lone their share.
But THE GLOBE finds that North Car
DINA has failed to do its duty, and tha'
there was a feeble attempt which ap
proximated nothing.
THE GLOBE believes that every man
in North Carolina should take an es'
pecial interest in bringing before the
whole world the manifold resources of 8
state so rich in a thousand times more
than a thousand possibilities.
But The GLOBE is in an earnest talk,
North Carolina must be represented.
There is no hope now unless individ-
uals who are interested-and what in
dividual is not-subscribe to the general
fund.
Let US have a show at Chicago ever
though it cost US some real money.
Let every man in North Carolina con-
tribute his mite and let hat help swell
the general fund.
Without adopting any advertising
methods, and without the hope or the
desire Of any greater recompenSe than
that which state pride will bring, THE
GLOBE now proposes to open a general
subscription paper and it proposes to
raise as near $25, 900 as is possible.
There must be no contingent fund.
Every man who subscribes must write
his name for what he believes is loyalty
to his state.
THE DURHAM DAILY GLOBE subscribes
$3.50 and it wants to hear from other peo-
pie who are loyal to North Carolina.
THE GLOBE will insist upon hearing
from other newspapers. 1t will ask no
advertisement for what it proposes to do.
But it shall insist upon a fair and full ex-
PLANTATION Of it's plan.
And briefly it's plan is:
That at least $4,000 shall be raised,
and that the people Of North Carolina
shall contribute to the fund-that THE
GLOBE gives $3.50 and that all moneys
shall be sent to LEO D. HEARTH, cashier
The proposition further is:
That The GLOBE proposes to give $3.50
to ar exhibition at the Worlds Fair and
liable it "North Carolina" if no other man
or individual donates a penny.
MIR. HEARTT, cashier of the First Ma
lional Bank, will keep a correct account
Of all moneys entrusted to his care.
Every city and every town owes it to
the state to send something to LEO. D.
HEARTT, cashier of the First National
Bank, Durham, n. c., to see that our
state is properly represented at the
Worlds Fair.
The subscription stands to day:
DURHAM DAILY GLOBE, $4,000.
Let it be known that The GLOBE has
no ambition in this matter-it simply
wants to see North Carolina represented.
We hope the state press will join us in
our efforts and see that $25, 600 are raised.
\ full plan Of the scheme will appear la
ter. Those who will contribute sums
greater than $50 are simply requested to
mail us their intentions.
Now let us all get at it.

COMMERCIAL OPPRESSION ABROAD.

COMMERCIAL OPPRESSION ABROAD.
The reports regarding the state of trade
in England indicate the beginning of a
period Of depression which may have Sc
riOus consequences for that country, and
which suggest some considerations as TO
the possible effect upon the United
States. England has enjoyed several
years of more than ordinary prosperity.
Her manufacturing industries have been
making money. Her commercial enter
prises have been profitable, h~ertranspor-
tation interests have paid good returns.
There has been a steady and large accu-
mutation of capital which, being in ex-
cess Of the demands and opportunities
for nome investment, has found employ
ment in various parts Of the world, a
considerable amount having come to the
United States. Perhaps if her prosperity
had been less generous the outlook would
not now be quite es threatening as re-
ported, for a much less amount of capital
would have gone to aid such wild and
reckless financial schemes as those in Ar
gentine, which drove the great banking
house of the Earrings to the verge of bank
ruptcy. The shock of that event the fl
naHcial system of England has not re-
covered from, and it is doubtless to a
larger degree respons ible for the existing
condition of affairs than any other one
circumstance 1t created a deep sense of
dlstrust that must have had a damaging
effect on enterprise. Another cause cited
in explanation of the growing trade de-
preston in England is the hostile tariffs.
which on every side are reducing the
markets for the manufactured products
OF that country, our " tariff plaving
a larger part in this direction thar that
Of any other nation. Advices from
France report that a number Of industries
IN that country are also depressed, and
the cause of this is charged directly to
the operation of the American tariff.
Some Of the French manufacturers whose
business has materially decreased alIege
this cause with a good deal Of asperity.
1t is an obviously sound general prop
osition that the permanent prosperity
Of any nation doing business with the
world at large depends upon all the ma

AMERICUs, GA, June A brilliant
wedding occurred in Americas tonight.
The occasion was the marriage of Charles P.
Payne to Miss Mitch Bolton. The groom is
a prominent young business man. The bride
is one Of the most beautiful and lovely la

daughter Of j. T. Bolton, prominent and
influential citizen.
The barns and stables of Wade Rose, two
miles from Americas, were completely de-
stroyed by fire at l o'clock this mornin &.
The fire was evidently the work of an in
cendlary. The loss is about $500, with no
insurance.

All OF them have told, but no two are alike

and that he walks up there by creating a
vacuum in bis instep and allowing the pres

Others think be carries minute bottle of

CoMMERCE WITH CANADA.
Sir John Thompson's Statement Gre
ates Sensation.

ateS Sensation.
OTTAWA, ONT, June 4.-The returns
brought down yesterday by Sir John
Thompson in reference to the commercial
regulations with the United States are the
political event of the day. The papers in
clude only the Canadian side of the story,
and deal with the matter from the date of
Canada's protest against the Newfoundland
treaty. which was successful. IL appears
hat tho English colonial secretary agreed
to suspend the treaty made by Minister
Bond of Newfoundland. Subsequently he
proposed a similar arrangement for Canada
to that made by Newfoundland. There is
no record that this proposition was ever
made to the Washington government.
CANADA's OBJECTION.
Canada's objection to the Newfoundland
arrangement was that their interests were
treated separately aud distinct of Canada
New Brunswick and Nova Scotia were left
in the cold. The report Of Sir Charles Tup-
per's interview with Secretary Blaine shows
that the secretary complained Of the
statements made on the hastings
during the Canadian elections that the
American government bad withheld reci-
procity negotiations with Canada, while as
a matter Of fact Canada had made the first
move in that direction by interpretation in
the Newfoundland negotiations. Sir Charles
Upper contends that Secretary Blaine
agreed to consider Canada after the inter
position of the Canadian government in the
Newfoundland negotiations.
BLAINE VERY DIPLOMATIC.
Secretary Blaine's statements to Sir
Charles Upper were courteous but were
thoroughly diplomatic and committed him
to nothing. After the return of the Cam
adian commissioners from their hurried trip
to Washington, a dispute arose. From the
letters and kilograms it is evident that an
Secretary Blaine's Office, but President
Harrison put a veto on this arrangement Of
the secretary, aud it was decided to post
pone the negotiations. 1t has been denied
that information reached here of the PresI-
dents intention to postpone the negotiations
in time to prevent the commits
sioners from starting on their fruit
loss errand, but Sir Charles Upper init
mates that a telegram was sent by
Secretary Blaine to the governor general,
acquainting him with the desire on the part
of the American government to modify the
date. He says that he saw this tele-
gram in Ottawa, but despite that
fact proceeded with the Ottawa con-
tingent to Washington. Sir Charles Upper
attributed this action on his part to exces-
sive zeal. 1t is evident that the Canadian
commissioners were treated with courtesy
by the American government, and Secre-
tary Blaine in a subsequent letter expresses
regret that they were unable to remain and
enjoy the hospitality of Washington.

From the NeW York Sun.
One youth said to another as they sat in
club window: ~ wish, my boy. l could
look one-half as well as you do all the time.
Somehow you always seem better dressed
than any man 1 know. Now, you don't
keep a valet, aud hardly think you spend
more money for clothes than | do, but l
simply am not in the same class with you in
the matter Of dress. Give me some pointers
on how you do it."

who spent very nearly as much on personal
adordment as the entire income of the
other amounted to, his friend being par
ticularly impicuneous member OF fashion

necessary science. Let me tell you the
most important items in gentleman's GET

gloves Let a man be physically clean; let
him wear a good hat, bright shoes of fine
quality and gloves that are not soiled. and
his overcoat can be pretty rusty without

Some Of the Characteristics OF the In

From the Chicago Herald.
The fly has some advantage over q man.
For instance. he has a pair Of double COM
pound eyes, and with them he can see In
any direction or In ell directions at once
without for an instant turning his head.
These eyes have 1000 distinct faces, and
all of them have direct communication
with the brain, so that il man comes
along on one side of him and a lump of
sugar on the other he will be able to watch
both Of them and stay for the sugar 30 long
as IT is safe on accout Of the man.
When he sees be can get one and dodge
the other, that is exactly what he does,
and he does not have to twist his neck in
two trying to keep track Of the opposite OBJ
ject.
The fly is particular about the air he
breathes. He hasn't very big mouth, and
his lungs are small in proportion to his
body, but he is particular what he puts into
them.
Good green tea, such as the best Of the
grocers sell for a dollar, stepped pretty
strong and well sweetened, will kill as many
flies as drink OF it, 1t is estimated that a
pound of tea and two pounds of sugar will
rid room of flies within ten days-that is,
q small room.
Flies are voracious eaters. They do not
careso much what they eat as when they
eat 1t. Trey are particular about regular
meals. They do not eat long at a time, nor
much at time, but they eat often.

The Proceedings of the Third Day Of
the Conference.
MoHoEK LAKE, N. Y, June 4.-The
third session of the Mohonk negro confer
ence, President Hayes in the chair, was
opened with reports from workers in the
south. President Dunton of Clsflin Univer-
sity, 8. C., argued in favor of indus
trial education, and presented inter-
esting specimens Of the work of his
students. Miss Martha Schof1eld, of the
Schofeld normal and industrial school,
at Aiken. 8. c., spoke of the present needs
Of the negroes.
Miss E. H. Bottume of Port Royal, s. c.,
spoke on the home life of the colored people.
Mothers, she said, need to be taught how TO
take care of their children, and the children
need discipline. The colored people need to
be taught to make virtue respectable and
to make vice disreputable.
HIGHER EDUCATION,
President Bumstead of the Atlanta uni
versity said it was mistake to suppose
that the higher education of the colored
people was being overdone. Not over
five, or at the most ten per cent. of the
pupils were getting it. 1t was mistake to
forget that higher education Of
the few was contributing most
efficiently to the elementary education OF
buo AAObuoI niStdAo was buo b6u-
dency to depreciate higher education In
favor Of industrial training. Another mis-
take was to make too much of the comical
and grotesque side Of the negro life and
character.
INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION.
Morris Jessup of New York, treasurer of
the Slater fund. emphasized the Importance
of industrial education. 1.-The negro, too,"
he said, must be taught to save" He
deprecated the sectarianism which exists
in educational work for the colored people.
President Hickman of Clark university
of Atlanta read thoughtful paper on
"Co-education of the races treating fairly
the arguments on both sides Of the question.
Rev. Lyman Abbott, D. D., said he felt
sure that, taking the south as whole,
and earnest desire for the best and largest
education Of the colored people was COM
ing.
