Boys, Don't Do 1t AGAIN.

In passing along one of our
streets yesterday afternoon, we
were deeply grieved to over
hear a group of boys, not yet
out of their teens, giving vent
to the most profane language
Now boys don't be guilty Of
such expressions again. All
the words needed to express in
dignation and wrath are found
in our language and why resort
to such profane and vulgar lam
guage. Perhaps you think it is
manly to make use of such
words but you are very much
mistaken. An oath never
strengthens or emphasizes an
assertion and swearing is a
dreadful habit that will grow
upon you as you get older,
Once into its clutches it is an
exceedingly difficult matter to
free yourself from its iron grip,
1t is extremely wicked, but
leaving the wickedness out Of
the question, it is useless and
irrational, for it brings nc
pleasure nor comfort.
1t is imagined by some of oul
youths,that occasional oaths and
a little vulgarity thrown in
gives spice to a conversation
it may be so if you are talking
to profane and vulgar minded
persons, but such expression,
are quite offensive to people Of
refinement. You would be dis
gusted with yourselves if you
should happen to see your con
versations in print with tn,
coarse and vulgar words ant
oaths all along the line of you
remarks, 1t is just as cheap X
express your thoughts will
chaste and simple Language
and certainly more becoming Il
boys of your age.

F Mr.. BLAINE's reciprocity pol
icy that presents such alluring
possibilities tn the anxious gaze
of many Republican politicians
and manufacturers, was shown
from the start to be upon Dem
ocratic basis. 1t is no new
thing under the sun. So far
from this it is the Democratic
policy as enunciated in 1884,
and the Secretary of State has
simply stolen Democratic thun-
der. The Louisville Courier.
Journal has this and it is worth
noting: "In 1884 the conyen'
ton which nominated Mr.. Cleve'
land at Chicago adopted a so
called 'free trade" platform, in
which the following declaration
relative to reciprocity is found
We favor an American CONT
mental policy, based on more in
innate commercial and politi
cal relations with fifteen sistel
republics Of North, Central anC
South America, be entanglinl

ANlNDIAs MARRIAGE.
The Daughter of Chief Smith
Led TO the Alter.

Wednesday was a gala day
at the training school on the
Indian Reservation in Swain
county. Any one approaching
the picturesque headquarters
would, from a distance, have
observed notes from a brass
band, echoing through the
mountain valleys. A nearer
approach would have disclosed
the children of the well ordered
school in holiday attire and
many signs of some unusual
event, which was nothing less
than the marriage of Miss Lot
tie, the third daughter of Chief
N. j. Smith, TO Capt. John P.
Pattee, recently graduated from
the well known school at Hamp.
ton, Va. The nuptial ceremony
took place at 7 O'Clock in the
evening and was performed by
the Rev. William s. Barrows,
minister-in-charge Of Grace
church, Waynesville. The
service used was that in the
Episcopal prayer book, both
bride and groom being members
of the Episcopal church. The
bride is not only famed for her
beauty and accomplishments,
but also for the more enduring
attractions of "worth and
truth. y. The groom, who is d
Sioux, has distinguished himself
in many ways throughout his
course at Hampton, where the
bride also studied) but, it is
safe to say, in no way more
than by the winning of this
coveted Cherokee prize. The
couple have every body's best
wishes and will in a few days
start for South Dakota where
Capt. Pattee's property and IN.
terrsts are. special to ,sshe,

HAVE you ever thought Of the
fact that the progress and
wealth Of the world Is largely
we may say vastly-due to
those who give thought, time
and money TO new industries:
They forge ahead and blaze the
way for others to follow and
reap the rewards. Those who
hold back, hunt for easy places
for themselves and families;
seek perfectly safe places for
their capital, at a big per cent.
in what has already been es.
tablished, are not the greatest
benefactors Of mankind, or the
leaders in the pathway Of true,
enjoyable wealth.

THE PEOPLES MONEY.

The unity of purpose which
will mark the opening of the
next Congress, not distured by
the son-of gun Reed, augurs
well for the fidelity of the DEM
ocrats to their purpose. We
believe the year 1892 is destined
to do its work of national re-
generation. 1t can be done,
Investigations should be the
order of the day; everything
should be overhauled, and
abuses exposed and corrected
spectators and defaulters call
ed to an account, and robbers
of the treasury made to dis.
gorge. The people will feel re.
lieved, when these investiga
tors will put q stop to the ex
travagant expenditure and ap
preparations of so many long
years, and by putting a stop t.
them will made economy pos
sible and taxation bearable.
The people have long yearne'
for endurable taxation. 1t i
the peoples money with which
the administration and its pet
have been playing with. 1t il
the peoples hard earnings tina
have wrung from them to fat
ten the fortunes of a WORTHLESS
set. The uprising of the hon
est farmers was the first hasl
of that light which will illum
mate the whole country and in
spire it's hearts with hope tina
the end of such troubles is fas
approaching.

4 Free Fight.

3 I Il
It was rumored that there was
quite a row yesterday between the
colored excursionists who went to
GAINESVILLE, and a number Of colored
men at that place. A reporter failed
to find out much about it this morn
ing, as no one seemed to care to talk
about it. There was a free fight,
however, in which about two dozen
lent a hand, and some Of them were
pretty badly beaten up, but no one
was seriously hurt. The colored peo-
pie here say that some Oxford dar-
kies and GAINESVILLE darkies did all
the fighting.
The best information obtainable is
that bar keeper there sold whiskey
that made a lot of darleys sick, and,
as they thought, poisoned them.
They started row about it, and the
juicery man called on the Clarks,ille
darkeys for help. A fight followed,
and the fire water famed the flames.
When the train was pulling out for
Durham, a yolley was fired into it,
but no one was hit.

COLORED CONVENTION.
The Lake Mohonk Negro Con-
ference.

ICECuCCe
We see from a telegram TO
the Lynchburg Advance, dated
Lake Mohonk, N. Y, June 9th,
that the fourth session of the
Lake Mohonk Negro Confer
ference was marked by a spirit
ed but fraternal debate on the
race question. The Rev. Al.
Phillips, q Southern delegate,
made a ringing speech in favor
of the education of the negro.
The time had come when north
ern teachers would no longer
be ostracized by the Southern
whites. He urged, however,
that Northern teachers, while
maintaining business relations
with the colored people, should
maintain social relations only
with the whites. The Rev. DR..
Hall, of Brooklyn, as a South
ern,man, disputed this position.
President Hickman, of At.
lanta University, did not be.
lieve in Haunting the flag. He
advocated the avoidance Of pol
itical irritation.
N. John Glenn, of Baltimore
read a paper fayoring compul
sorry education.
At the fifth session, President
Woodwork, of Tougaloo Uni

valuable paper on the economic
conditions of the colored people
in Mississippi, which he thought
were better than in any othsl
