put Baldwin in the box up to nearly the

his humor in the second inning, and gave
what could fairly be called 4 wretched display of

Depths Of Depravity.

A depraved nature that covets
money, will do almost anything
to gain it. The case Of Lee
Hefiin, who has confessed that
he murdered a mother and her
three children, near Calverton,
FauQuier county, Va, for mon
ey, furnishes a striking illus
tration Of this fact.
Another illustration is that Of
Mr.. Beals, of Kansas City, whose
little boy, like Charley Ross,
was abducted a short time ago.
By paying 5000 he got his boy
back again, and the abductors
are now in Jail awaiting the
punishment that the law will
impose upon them. This is
very gratifying 10 every parent
and good citizen.
How q man can become SO
callous and heartless as TO muir
der his fellou-beings, or TO
snatch from a devoted parents
bosom the darling of his affec-
tions, for money, is q mystery
to US and mahifests q depth Of
depravity that we cannot un-
dsrstand.
Early in life children should
be deeply impressed with the
fact that every method Of OBJ
tanning money, except by hon
estly sarning il, is wrong and
will bring them into disgrace
aud trouble. Children are often
allowed TO grew up without
proper moral training. They
cultivate habits that lead them
farther and farther away from
right. They 20 from bad to
worse until, for crimes, they are
placed behind prison walls, or
suffer death upon the gallows.

The Presidential Contest.

From now until the close of
the Presidential contest next
November, the warfare will be
waged with increasing ardor
and enthusiasm, between the
Democratic and Republican
parties upon well-defned prin-
ciples. The Republican would
doubtless like to relegate the
tariff issue to the rear, but the
Democrats will not allow them
to do so. They know that high
protective tariff is working
great injustice to the people of
this country, and they are also
aware of the fact that there is a
daily increasing sentiment in
favor of tariff reform, and to
meet the demands Of the Dcca-
sion they will force the fight on
the tariff question.
If the Democratic members of
Congress are discreet they will
make such a record for their
party during the present ses-
sion of Congress that will ap-
peal directly to the good, plain,
practical, patriotic, bLsiness
proclivities Of all classes Of men
who are seeking redress from
the burdens and expressions
heaped up on them by the un-
just legislation of the Republi-
can party. They will make a
record that the people will en-
dorse at the polls, and hurl the
Republican party from power.
The history Of the Republican
party will not bear the light Of
investigation Its r.ucri is
conspicuous for it's errors. blum

travagance. the last Congress

Be Brief.

In Cyrus Fields advice to
young men on how to get rich
he says: "Stick TO what you
undertake. Be honest and be
brief. l don't believe in long
business letters. There is no
business so important that you
cannot put the whole of it upon
one sheet Of paper"
Mr.. Field here states one of
those great modern truths that
ought TO sink deep into every
human soul, but which do not.
Cyrus also thinks the chances
for making a fortune are just as
good as they ever were, only
the methods are different and
large combinations of capital
are now necessary. But then
several poor persons can put
their small capital together in
our day and make il one large
one, 50 that even the necessity
for enormous sums to begin with
may be met aud fortune won,
provided only people will be
brief enough. The testimony
of this man, who has managed
many millions and made them
grow larger always, is that he
has made the cultivation Of
brevity in all things a prime
point, and found that il paid.
Therefore, be brief, and you
will get rich. Whether you
make 4 call, write q letter or
preach O sermon, be brief.
When you write for publication,
be brief. Make no palaver Of
beginning. make no palaver Of
ending. Dash into the midst Of
what you want 10 say, say Il,
and stop. The essays in the
magazines and reviews could
in almost every case be short.
ened by at least one-half and be
the better for IL. Life is too
short in our country for q del

Something Incomplete.

4'In reading the newspapers, "
said a man, speaking to an ac-
auaintance, 1--WE sometimes
come across a simple remedy
that we find to be of great BEN
eft. The old woman remedy
admits Of no explanation, and
doctors hoot at it, but some
time found to be of great ofica-
cy. I'll give you an instance:
About three weeks ago / saw q
paragraph stating that q hand
ful Of cold water applied to the
back Of the head every morn
ing, will prevent toothache.
Of course, / couldn't see any
reason why it should, but I be-
gan to try il and haven't had
the toothache since that time. "
THAT is really quite remark
able, {" the acquaintance replied.
But tell me, did you have the
toothache before you tried the
remedy"
"Weli, come to think Of it,. /
didn't. Humph. l thought
there was something incomplete
about il. t."-Arkansaw traveller.

Cotton looms IN the South.

IL was said some years ago
that New England could never
compete with Old England in
the manufacture of the finer
grades of cotton goods. Yet in
all but the finest of dress mate
rial New England now makes
better cotton fabrics than Old
Englani. In China our white
goods are preferred to those of
Europe.
The same story is repeated in
reference to the competition be-
tween New England and the
south. New England manufac-
turers say that the southern
mills can never equal those of
the north in the finer grades of
cotton textiles. The south there
upon responds, "We shall see" "
New England manufacturers
put forward as an advantage
that cannot be overcome the
fact that their mills are near to
the consumers. On the other
hand, southern manufacturers
answer that their mills are on
the very ground itself where
the cotton is produced. Cheap
fuel lies all about these mills
and labor is cheaper. The cost
of a bale of cotton to the man
ufacturer by the time it reach
es Lowell from Savannah is
within two cents Of forty six
dollars. The cost of a bale of
cotton at the local mills in the
south is five dollars less than
this.
In counting the cost of the
raw material alone a southern
mill consuming 5000 bales an
nually can be operated for S25,-
900 less than a mill of the same
capacity in the north. Then, as
a southern journal unblushing.
ly remarks, the southern mill
has the advantage Of clover
taxes and, in the majority of
instances, entire exemption
from taxes" This last seems
enough to tempt the northern
manufacturer to move his mills
south.

DURHAM NORTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 1891.
Cyrus W. Pields Troubles.

The ingratituds Of children
often brings the gray hairs of
parents in sorrow to the grave.
The boys they have watched
over from earliest infancy with
tenderest solicitude, instead of
being a joy and solace to their
declining years. ovsrshadows
their lives with deepest troubles
and sorrows. Such is the sad
experience of Cyrus w. Field,
who is known the world over as
the famous originator Of the
Atlantic cable. Gill;.
He is now nearly seventy.two
years old, with a reputation
that is not confined to one coun-
try, hsnored and respected by
his fellow-men and until recent
ly happy in his domestic rela-
tions A few days ago he had
considerable wealth, but it is
now all gone, through the in
gratitude Of his son
His wife, who Lad been his
devoted companion for more
than fifty years, was torn from
him by the messenger of death.
This sad affiictisn prostrated
the old man, and in q short time
the annoucement was borne to
him from his son, the head of
what was supposed to be a
thriving banking firm, that he
required a large sum of money
to save him from financial ruin.
1t is reported that the loving
father gave him the key to his
safe-deposit box and told him to
take the needed securities. 1t
is said the son took all the Sc
curities and lost them in Wall
street speculation. The son,
who has ruined his aged father,
is now an inmate of q mad
house. T
His physicians say the father
looks forward to death asa re-
lease from his troubles. Young
Field has ruined himself and
brought death to his
devoted, but now broken-hsart-
ed father. ~
Thi. sad history should be a
warning to all young men. IL
teaches lessons that cannot fail
to make deep and lasting i'm
pressions upon all thoughtful
persons who read it. The wise
will heed them, the foolish will
trample them under their feet.

"a well-dressed stranger walked

asked for the millionaire pro-

He was not in and the man
was asked what he wanted, and
he replied to Mr.. Charles Lewis

Mr.. Lewis said he had not
that much change on hand,
but would give him all he had,
and setting the stranger by the
nap of the neck and the seat of
the pants he threw him out the
door.
A few well-dirscted and
judicIously administered kicks
caused the stranger to change
his mind as to wanting the
money, and he took his painful
departure in an eastwardly di-
