FORSYTH AND THE EXPOSE
TON,

The different counties in the state
are falling in line and voting ap-
preparations to the Southern Expositi
on. Wake, Vance, Warren, Neck
linburg, Forsyth and others have
voted from 5000 to $1,000 each.
Several others are expected to make
appropriations next Monday.
While the private exhibits will be
of .unquestionable merit, the greatest
factor in North Cardinals exhibit
will be those arranged by the county
appropriation. Forsyth will have
perhaps the most attractive exhibit
displayed. The $500 certainly will
make creditable one, but the priv
ate exhibit of this county will aug
ment that wonderfully. And this
should be SO. While small in area,
she stands among the lead in taxable
property and with orr interests and
srecources there is no reason for being
exceled in this Exhibition.

PRESIDENT BATTLE RnT1REs

The resignation of Hon. Kemp
p. Battle, as president of the
State University, took effect
Thursday in appointment of his
successor, Prof. G. T. Winston.
President Battle resigned in
order to accept the Chair of His
tory which has been recently es-
tablished. In his association
with this institution, he has won
a name that will give him a high
stand among the leading educa-
tors of the State and the posi-
ton he now fills will enable him
to WELD even a wider influence,
educationally, than ever before.
Professor Winston is in his for
tieth year, and ranks as one of
first men in the State for his
literary and scholarly attain
ments. He is a native of BERTHE
county, is a son of the late P.
H. Winston, and is brother of
Judge r. w. Winston and of
Pat Winston, who was at one
time the most noted politician
in this State. He is n graduate
of Cornell University up till it's
close during reconstruction,
when he entered the United
States Naval Acamedy, at An
napo-lis, and gained distinction
there but resigned to enter Cor
nell University Upon the reor3
ganization of the North Carolina
University in 1875 he was elected
to the chair of Latin of that in
stitution, and has held the posi-
ton up to the present time. He

PREMIER DEAD.

At 1895 o'clock Saturday
night Sir John Macdonald,
whose death has been hourly ex-
pected for the past ten days
passed away.
Some elements of greatness he
undoubtedly possessed, and, al
though the stage was relatively
small on which his abilities were
exhibited, he cannot be refused a
place among the foremoststates
men of his time on this side of the
Atlantic.
Sir John Alex. Macdonald was
born in Scotland, January 18th,
1916. His f,,ther emigrated from
Sutherland to Canada and set
tied in Kinston, Ontario, in the
year 1920. Sir John received his
education at the Royal Gram
mar School in Kingston, adopted
law as his profession and was
called to the bar of Upper Canada
in 1886. Ten years later he was
appointed Queens Counsel and
afterwards became a bencher ex-
ofiicio, of the Law society of
Ontario. AS counsel he achieved
distinction by his memorable de-
Tense of Van Schultz who raided
Canada in 1888. But it is as a
politician and a statesman chat
he has won his place in Canadian
history.
He entered public life in 1914,
as the representative of the city
of Kingston in the House of As
sembly and continued to sit for
that constituency until the union
of 1868, when he was elected to
the House ofCommons of Canada
by the same electorate until
1873, when he was defeated.
Marquette, in Manitoba, and
Victoria, British Columbia. alter
ward returned him, and in 1882,
Lennox and Carlton counties
chose him as their member. He
sat in Parliament for the former
county and at the general cleo
ton of 1887 Carleton and
Kingston both elected him.

Mr.. ingalls, says that "the Republi
canism of the future must readjust
itself to the changed conditions of
American life" These changed con-
ditions have produced a Democratic
majority of 150 in the next Congress
and will quite probably Yield a De-
mocratic President next year. In
readjusting itself to this complete
change the Republican party will
simply recognize the democratic
principle or majority rule, which it
seems very loath to do.

men of North Carolina had no hope
save in the Democratic party.

ment that will be reiterated by maj

The German Baptist Conven-
ton at Hagerstown listened
Saturday to a report advising
the brethren to be careful not to
encourage the use of tobacco, and
to another report advising the
brethren to keep out CT politics,
neither ask nor desire election to
Office. We trust that the Con-
vention will be less austere than
the committees that brought in
these reports. To take away
tobacco and Office at once is
slicing off a rather large share of
the pleasure of life. Gen. Cling
man of this State finds that to-
bacco is II sovereign panacea and
mighty handy thing to have in
the house. The burning of it is
much recommended as q deter
rent of mosquitoes; and neither
to ask nor desire Office is to be q
Mugwump, an offence of which
no good Dunkard will be guilty.

EDITORIAL CHANGES IN NEW
YORK.

The newspaper changes made
in the last two or three days in
New Yerk city are rather surpris-
ing, especially to the knowing
once who have been circulating
the rumor that Colonel Cockerill
and manager Turner of the
World would soon join forces
and give New York Il new and
wonderful morning paper. The
following changes have been
made:
Turner, who has been the pub
fisher of The World since Joseph
Pulitzer bought it, and the man
credited by his friends with
making the paper what it is,
on Saturday moved around to
The Recorder, in which paper he
has purchased an interest along
with Colonel Charles H. Taylor,
owner of the Boston Globe. Mr..
Turner, it is understood, assumes
the general management OF The
Recorder. What changes, ifany,
will be made in the editorial
rooms is not known.
John Dillon, from The St.
Louis Post Dispatch, succeeds
Turner as manager of The World.
Pulitzer is on the ocean home
ward bound. He will arrive to-
day, it is said. tits said further
that his eyesight mas been fully re-
stored and that he is coming
home to take charge of The
World in person. There is
another story, however, to the
effect that Pulitzer no longer
owns any stock in The World,
having disposed of it for the
building in which the paper is
printed. But as his name is still
at the head of the editorial
column, the latter story is proba-
bly, not true.
Frank Munsey has sold The
Continent, and it is announced
that the same syndicate that
purchased The Commercial Adj
vertiser for Colonel Cockerill also
bought The Continent, and that
the two papers will be consolida-
ted and publish morning and
editions.
Bradford Merrill, formerly
managing editor of The Phila-
oelphia Press, has accepted the
same position on The New York
Press, the protection organ.
There are many rumOrs OF
other changes, but most of them
probably have little or no foun-
dation.
It seems to be generally be
lieved that Colonel Cockerill will
make his paper a tariff reform,
snti-Tammany democratic or
gan. That is the only politics
involved in any of the recent |
newspaper changes.
