And yet some democrats talk
about ieopardizing democrat

had no opportunity to do
anything for the relief of the
people. They have only been
able to hang on the back OF
the radical party and keep
it from doing more devil

why any democrat should

A False Alarm.

Lenoir, NC, Aug. "a, 1891,
Messrs. Seagle and Hol-
land, Of Charlotte, created a
big sensation at Blowing
Rock on Saturday by fight
ing a duel near Blowing Rock
Hotel, and at the word fire
one of the number fell SEEM
lngly severely wounded. He
was carried to the piazza of
Mayor Harper's cottage,
and physicians hastily sum
moned, who bandaged the
arm during the groans of the
wounded m q n. The news
spread rapidly, the ladies
rushing to the place with
bandages and the men to rem
der the twounded any assis-
they could. The Mayor rush
ed to the bloody field and
had heparticipantsa arrested
and q strong guard placed
around them, 1t was SOME
time before it was found out
that it was all d hoax, and
nothing but blank cartridges
had been used. -Lenoir Topic.

charge upon the public, are
the targets aimed at.) Mr..
Chandler says that Congress
never intended when the bro
hibitory laws were enacted
to authorize any such sys-
TEN, and it is fair to assume
that he proposes that the
matter shall be brought to
the attention of Congress.
Treasury officials say that
written opinions have been
furnished that department
by Attorney-Ge Garland
under the Cleveland admins
tratiou and by Attorney
General Miller under t h e
present administration to
effect that such bonds may
,be taken in the disertion OF
the Secretary of the Trea-
ury.
The cattle on the Cherokee
strip may be the cause OF
quite an administration row
when Mr.. Harrison comes
back. 1t is said that the
proposed scheme to have
them remain there by trans
ferring temporarily the titles
to them to individual Indi-
ans was first suggested to
the cattle barons by a prom
inent official of the Interior
department and now Assis-
tant Secretary Chandler, OF
the same department, says
| thaa. the ruSe is entirely too
thin, and that it will not be
allowed. Well, we shall see
who will win. 1t, may be q
sldnder, but it has been saiG
over and over again, that
these cattle men would not
beput off the strip, because
they had u good friend who
was very near, in more than
one respect to Mr.. Harrison
who would put them "onto"
some way to stay.
When the Weather Bureau
passed un6er the control OF
the Agricultural department.
the statement was made that
Francis E. Nipher, DIST. Lou
is, would have been placed
incharge of it had he not de-
clined to state his politics.
This was vehemently denied
at the time by Secretary
Rusk, but it was nevertheless
true. Profess or Nipher, who
is now here in attendance up
on the meetings OF the Amer
ican Association for the Ad-
vancement sOf Science says
that otter six months per-
suasion he had agreed to ac-
cept the position, but when
he received a telegram from
a member Of the cabinet
signed officially, and reading:
"What are your politics :?
Answer by telegraph" he
concluded that he did not
care for the position and
wired as follows: Replying
your telegram as requested,

not a politician and do not
intend to engage in any pol
itics."

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent

Only those republicans who
already hold Federal offices,
or those who are reaching
out after one, speak publicly
in favor OF his denomination;
Robert Small, the negro ex.
Congressman of South Caro-.
lima who is drawing q federal
salary in that State, dropped
into Washington last week
and, having succeeded by
some hook or crook in get.
ting himself interviewed by a
reporter of a respectable pa.
per. proceeded to eulogize
Harrison and to say if the
Southern republicans could
dictate the nomination ii
would certainly go to him;
he cast Blaine anchor tt
windward by saying that the
opposition which once exist
ed among Southern republi-
cans to Mr.. Blaine was now
entirely gone and that they
would gladly support him il
he was nominated. TilNnext
Harrison man to turn up in
Washington was ex-Repre-
sentative Mc( 'omas, OF Mary
land, who by his reason OF
his supporting the Force Bill
was deEehted for reelection
in a districtwhich isstronaly
republicon. Mr.. MrComas is
hankering after a seat on the
Federal bench; and it is not
strange that he should say
that during a tour OF the
northwestern States hef6und
thepeople all believing that
Blaine was too loyal to Mr..
Harrison to become a candi-
date and that Mr.. Harrison
deserved a denomination and
would get it. No such reports
have been brought in by dis
interested observers.
If Secretary Noble has not
got tired of saying that he
has not resigned and does
intend to resign, the people
are tired of hearing it. Just
to show how public opinion
gerards the matter it NAV be
mentioned that a sporting
man stood in the lobby of a
hotel, which was crowded
with people, and offered to
wager any amount from $50
to $1,000 that Noble was out
Of the Cabinet before the first
of January and there were no
takers.
Senator Carlisle is here
looking splendidly after his
long rest. He says that all
the newspaper interviews
with him concerning demo-
cratic candidates next year
which havefrom tine to time
appeared this Summer have
been entirely false, as he has
expressed in no opinions on
the subject.
Senator Chandler, chair
n an of the Senate committee
on immigration, has fred the
first gun in what may be a
very serious tightin Congress
by writing a letter to the Sec
retary of the Treasury set
ting forth his views as to the
legality of that officials ac-
tionin accepting bonds, in
suring that they should not
become d public charge, and
permitting the landing ofany
prohibited dclass tthe Russian
Jews recently permitted to
land, unon the Jews in tllb,.

Blowing Rock as I Saw It,
For the Democrat.

| am SO glad | went to the
Reunion. My conception OF
Blowing Rock was very mean.
| had not been there since
the first hotel was built. I
tbough6 the Rock at the
precipice and from which the
town took it's name, was the
principal attraction, and
more than half the town.
But as Attorney Todd said
in his speech "a man has a
right to change his mind"
and | changed mine. | was
agreeably surprised, and
made proud that old Watau-
ga had such a town. AS /
went from the seat Of gov
eminent into town | thought
that house down below the
telegraph office was one of
those hotels of which I had
heard. AS | looked at il 7
came to the conclusion that
it would do pretty well for
the place. | ventured on up
iuto town and caught sight
OF the Watauga Hotel. then
amazement seized my brain
and ] began to wonder who
in this over-taxeG and over
ridden Southern land of ours
had money enough to build
such a house. | went on and
found that "the half had not
been told"
Blowing Rock will surprise
any one who has never seen
it, taking everything into
consideration. While it id
not a city: and makes no ef-
forts to stand as a rival of
any great city, yet the geo.
graphical situation of the
country is such thatit is des-
tined to become a consldera-
bic place for health and pleas
ure seekers. The locality of
the country is such that
houses cannot, to any great
extent be crowded. A princi
pal element in the sanitive-
ness OF any place.
/ have made my descrip-
ton of the place too lengthy.
WANTED to say a word about
the Reunion. A portion of
the time the weather was nn-
pleasantly W t. Notwith-
standing, the people went to
enjoy, and | think every body
did SO. 1t was a success.
There were thousands ofpeo-
pie there and if the weather
had been fine, many hundreds
more would have come. On
Friday, Judge Bynum made
a speech. His opinion OF a
true soldier fighting for what
he conceived to be right, was
so exalted, that | could not
help loving them, whether
they be Union or Rebel. He
appealed to their experiences
as soldiers; leaving home,
larlng a praying wife and a
weeping babe, and I saw
them brush a tear from their
cheeks. AS that most excel
lent Hickory Band played
some Of the airs of Old-lang-
syne | said to a Veteran who
had lost an arm, "Does that
call to memory the past?''
"Yes" said he with moist
eyes, Il now think Of the
boys, and circumstances that
| had not thought Of for
twenty years"
