the State averaged five and one half

section report wheat injured. The top
IS, Ill some fields, badly Drowned, but
injury to root cannot be determined.
The ground IN the northern counties

damage Is reported. The total number
OF bushels OF wheat marketed IN Febru-
airy was ,269 ,412, and in seven months
August to February-lO,05 0,320 bush

OFFICIAL PAPER Of The CITY.


The action of thc Democratic senators
yesterday in bulldozing through the
senate, with the very efficient help of
the Lieutenant Governor. a resolution
70 discharge tile select committee from
tae further consideration Of the Frid-
auCbahle buresques ever enacted aud
he.d out as a piece OF smartnsSs. 1t
shows that the Kindergarten psrlia-
mentarans have much 10 lexrn, II they
want 10 escape making themselves the
laughing stock OF every one but idiots.
Doubtless the Democratic papers viii
take up the cry and land Il rs another
shyewd trek devised by Senator Park
and Boss H0sford.
Let IS see what they have done. AS
j. well known, senator Croker sub
mittcd Il report IN the Fridlander
Morse case, which ne signed as chair
maa. That report Was adopted by the
Senate-sO the Democrats claim. II
that was report, and 10 was adopted,
as the Democrats insist, then the select
committee had performed It's functions
and WAS absolutely discharged and dis
solved. But yesterday senator Croker
stultIted himself by Offering resolu-
ton and the Democratic Senator'S stultl-
fed themselves IN adopting it, to dis
charge the same committee.
WAT does that mean? Was that go
called report in reality falsehood?
Was the action on that report really
taken, when there was not a quorum
present? Was the entire proceeding
null and void aud the committee sAil
existing IL so, then Frldlander IS an
intruder. On the other hand, was that
really q report? Was 1t actually
adopted II so, the committee had
been already discharged, and instead of
doing sharp thing, the Democratic
senators performed q very ely ante
and dream themselves secure now IN
their stead. The whole action is exact
" on a par with the parliamentary
skill displayed by the ParkHosford
combination IN the whole dIsgraceful
Transaction.

THEORY AND ACT.

Grover Cleveland, IN his message TO
Congress on the revision of the tariff
laws. December 8, 1857, announced this
startling proposition: These laws, as
their plain aad primary eject, raise
TIE price To customers OF all articles
imported and subject to duty, by pre-
cisely the sum paid for such duties"
That IS democratic theory of very
stale kiad. The following quotation
from the Boston Commercial Bulletin,
of February %, 1891, IS practical fact.
zone of the heaviest importers of
wOolens IN Boston states that as soon as
his present contract with foreign man
ufacturers expires, he has been prom
ised = reduction IN prices to meet the
advanced rates OF duty now applicable
20 the merchandise OF his importation"
And IN this connection With the above,
Z = well 90 consider the other practical
facts that are coming % the surface
almost daily since the passage Of the
Mckinley bail, that "a, the location of
many English manufacturing plants IN
tins country, because the tariff duties
cannot be added az Grover Cleveland
said they were. Cleveland and his
apostles may theorizs very prettily n
favor OF English manufacturers. but
they DO not adopt his theories 30 gov
eru their business movements They
conform 70 the practical facts Of pro-
lection.

STING OF RESENT MENT.
The Changers Justly Indignant Over
the Democratic Insult

prominent Democratic farmer, and
one closely identified with the manage
ment of the State Grange, thus delivers
himself on the unseating of Senator
George Il. Horton: 1--WE consider the
action of the Democrats n broad and
deliberate insult, IN whatever light Il
may be viewed. Ii seems that the af-
front t. the State Grange IS alltne more
pronounced IN view of the fact that
Senator Horton was one of our most
respected and popular workers, rank
ing equal IN Influence with Judge
Ransdell and Governor Luce. Senator
Horton was offered the position of
Master OF the orde-. but declined to
accept, preferTlng To remain on the
Executive Committee. He WAS the
author of the resolutions introduced at
the last meeting of the Grange directed
agalns. the Alliance on account of ts
dabbling IN politics, and has always
stood as firm, unyieldInC champion OF
farmers right. The very fact that the
Grange is not n political organization,
only lutensifies the kecnness Of the in
suit Haunted in orr faces by the I'M
seating OF senator Horton. 1t i safe to
say that the Democrats having humlll-
ated US. viii find the sting OF our re-
sentiment IN this springs election"

READ AND REFLECT.
A Free-Trader's Views on sManchester's
Going to- Michigan"

From the American Economist:
Our English exchanges report that
negotiations have been concluded by
which a large linoleum factory will be
transferred from Manchester to Muske-
gon, Mich, as under the Mckinley act
1t IS thought that 1t will be cheaper TO
make the material there than to I'M
port it." This is only another of the
fruits Of the Mckinley bill, which is,
according to the assertions of British
manufacturers, going to bring so much
distress to our people. English manu-
facturers think 1t will be cheaper to
manufacture here than to continue to
export.
This growing faith on the part of the
British IN the permaneucy Of protec-
ton is growing extremely troublesome
10 our free-trade contemporaries and
the Milwaukee News says OF it:
the manufacturers OF Manchester
are the ones to profit most by the thing
or they would not move.
TINS is the discovery or an original
thinker and doubtless throws grave
in the mind of every one reading it
and believing 1t.
According to British accounts there
are but three linoleum factories in this
country, and fourth one moves here
because II is thought cheaper To make
II here than IN Manchester. This does
no. look ike a diminished supply, nor
Ike an increased cost To- the consumers,

THE ENGLISH CLUB.

1t Is Radically Different from tho Social
Organizations of America.
The English club is a place TO live in. In
one of these clubs a member lives for five
hundred pounds year about as well rs he
could live for five thousand year in bis
own house. He Of course wishes TO make
the club his own house rs far AS may he.
This fact explains the soltariness Of these
institutions. The member wishes TO find
in them the independence, the privacy.
and in a sense the solitude of his own
house. The great clubs are therefore de-
signedly unsocial.
Many of the features of the club accord
with this intention. This is perhaps the
reason OF the plain decoration and the alb
sence OF pictures from the walls. lt is
thought that club should he prevented
from looking like drawing room; the no
ton Is that rather than look like a drawing
room it should look like an hotel-thc sug-
gestion being, perhaps. that the members
are strangers to one another, as people who
meet in an hotel'are. But OF course il
should look like neither.

Children Covered aoth Purosites.-
A Tale Of Suffering and
Cruelty.
BV Cable.

DUBLIN, Oct. 27. Highly SEN
sational and startling testimony was
to-day given at the trial of the Rev.
Samuel Cotton, rector at Carnego,
who was charged with criminal
i'll treatment of the children at Car
nege orphanage. The clergyman
who had conducted the affairs of
the institution for many years has
often appealed to the people
for assistance and has re-
ceived large sums of money
by subscription for the maintenance
of the orphanage. The society for
the protection of children recently
made examination into the matter in
which the orphanage is conducted
and horrible state of affairs was re
vealed. The children were ragged,
emaciated, filthy and covered with
parasites. The toes of ono child had
rotted off, while little girl had bee q
chained by the legs to log. An
infant six weeks old was found in the
orphanage kitchen covered with rag:
and dying of starvation. Other chill
dren were found in the same apart
ment crouched around small fire
almost frozen and half starved. A.
the poor little ones were stunted il
growth and weak and sickly in health
The sanitary condition of the estab
lishment was also abominable to tn,
last degree. The accused clergyman
was committed to trial, bail beins
allowed in order to enable him to at
tend the synod cf the diocese 0
which he is member.

Parties coming in from Morgan
ton yesterday tell of the sad death
of Mrs. Clarke, of Burke county, a
few days ago. She attended cir
Gus in Morganton, and thoughtless-
ly got too near the bear who jumped
at her and scratched her painfully.
1t was not thought the accident was
fatal, but the scratch was more Sc
rious than was supposed, and she
died from the effects. It is sup
posed by some that she neglected
the scratch, and that her death
came from neglect.
