LET UP.

When POLK remains silent, while JERRY
SIMPSON tells him that the negro is his
moral and social equal, does he mean to
admit it, or is he afraid to rebuke this
Kansas fanatic and leveler? A report
comes from Georgia hat the alliance
members Of the legislature of that state
refused to accept a home donated for dis
abled confederate veterans, to avoid in,
curing the displeasure of PETER and
SIMPSON; and have these republican ennis
saries and enemies of the South so dis
ciplined POLK that even when one of
them is present he fears to assert the race
pride of a true Anglo-Saxon? SIMPSON
is now talking as if the farmers of North
Carolina are in favor of negro equality,
because when he declared for the doc
trine, from the public hustings in this
state, he was %applauded. Polk has sue
ceeded in placing ONE of our good peo-
pie in a very unenviable attitude before
the country.-News and Observer.
The negro nightmare seems to disturb
the good CAPTAIN AsHE.
But he is Inconsistent. He says that
POLK thinks when he is attacked the
alliance is attacked.
BQt AsHE thinks by attacking the
blatherskite SIMPSON, he is attacking the
alliance.
The truth is, the alliance is all right,
and the frauds POLK and SIMPSON are all
wrong.

THE IDIOCY OF NOTHING.

That curious woman who calls herself
Mrs. ROBERT RAY HAMILTON, but whom
the courts decided to be MRS. JOSHUA
MANN, has once more shuf1ed the cards
and has made a new deal in the enter
tanning but uncertain game of adventure
which she began so many years ago. In
this small New Jersey town she made
her debut as an actress last night in a
play embracing and centering about the
incidents of her life with ROBERT RAY
HAMILTON.
The above choice bit Of news which is
just now going the rounds of the great
newspapers in the form of a special from
Boonton, N. j., the scene of the first ap-
pearance of this new theatrical star, is
another of those refreshing and frequent
instances in which the notoriety born of
disgrace and crime is put up by the scan
dial stained celebrity as so much capital
stock On which the giddy, gaping human
v%ultures, known under the general head
Of the "public," who feed on sensation
and who rush with equal eagerness to
the scene of a murder or a bull fight, are
called upon to pay interest and keep the
stock on the market.
Everybody remembers the story of
crime and shame which two years ago
filled columns of space in all the papers
and which made the names of ROBERT
RAY HAMILTON and the siren who claimed
to be his wife, but who was never married
to him, familiar in every household where
a newspaper found its way.
Everybody remembers also the fate of
the fallen mantle stricken conscience,
the remorse, despair and final desperation
which caused him to throw himself into
a river and thus end an existence which
was no longer bearable to him.
Everybody remembers the slush and
slobber which cheap scribes ground out
on the subject at so much a column, and
the part played by the miserable adven-
turess who now has the brazen effront-
cry to show herself behind the footlights,
the most conspicuous position she could
possible assume, and ask the decent and
intelligent people Of this country to
com out and pay for the privilege of
looking at OVERLOOKING at a bold, de-
PRAYED and thrice fallen woman, who
spe~culates on her dishonor and
makes of the tragedy of her life acomedy
and a pretense.
And yet this woman, this heartlesA and
brazen creature, whose only claim to the
notoriety she enjoys lies in the fact of
her having entrapped and betrayed a
man who was one a high and honorable
and useful citizen, and of having passed
through a criminal court unscathed, will
be patronized by a class of thoughtless,
freak-loving people, who never stop to

THE EIFFEL TOWER BEATEN.

4 friend writing us from Chicago says
that HALE, the elevator mans will build
a steel steeple for the worlds fair reach
ing a quarter of a mile into the sky. The
Paris tower was $50 feet high. The HALE
| tower will soar 200 feet higher. The
WAYS and means committee of the Worlds
| Columbian exposition, at a late hour last
night, practically agreed to grant the
| concession asked for. The plan will be
referred to the building and grounds
| committee. There is no doubt that a IA
vorable concession will be granted. 1t
is said the tower can be erected within
fifteen months. The area at the founda-
ton is 44O square: At the first landing
feet wide and 73S feet in circumference.
Inside this space is room for four holes
each 45x90 feet, and as many stories high
as may be required. This building can
be made of appropriate style of archi-
lecture for French, German, Spanish
and Italian restaurants. The restaurants
can seat six to eight thousand guests at
one time. The second landing can be
used as picnic quarters in the day and a
dancing platform at night. This land
ing will hold 5000 people. The grand
lookout on the top will be three sto-
ries high and will accommodate 1900.
| About this will be four offices which
can be used for the signal service.
Above the offices will be an electric rail
way carrying a light at night and signals
by day. On top will be a light house,
carrying the most powerful revolving
light ever made. From the flagstaff the
stars end stripes Will wave100 feet higher
than ever d flag fiuttered. There will be
eight elevators, each carrying fifty people.
Two will run to the top without stopping,
Two to the second landing and four to the
first. They will have a carrying capacity
of 1900 per hour. A fee of so cents will
be charged to the first landing, rs cents
to the second, and $3.50 to the top. The
estimated daily revenue from the elevator
service CT the tower is $4,000.

CROP OUTLOOK.

The weekly weather crop report says
that although slightly better weather
has prevailed, no improvement in the
crops has taken place. The early part
of the week was decidedly too cool, the
temperature reaching the normal only
during the last few days. The excessive
rains have ceased, but light showers,
which were quite unnecessary, have fall
len. The rainfall was the heaviest in the
eastern district and least in the western,
otherwise the same conditions have pre-
vailed generally over the state. Cotton
continues to shed and is affected by rust.
1t is opening very slowly. Corn was
not much damaged but the saving of
fodder and hay is not progressing very
well Tobacco curing is progressing
rapidly, the yield not promising to be
quite as good as expected. The pros
poets are now for a few days of saving
weather and lower temperature. The
present condition of the staple crops is
as follows : Eastern district, cotton 60,
corr SO, tobacco 50; Central district,
cotton 70, corn So, tobacco 10: Western
district, cotton 7S, corn 81, tobacco S4

THE record of the dashing LIEUTEN-

Is THIS TRUE.

1t has peer charged that LIEUTENANT
POLK was a coward in the war; that he
has been a coward ever since.
The following is the information which
THE GLOBE has been furnished. If lit is
not true, LIEUTENANT Polk must say
that it is not and prove that it is not.
THE GLOBE is strong enoughto command
respect. We understand that other men
have accused POLK of c~owardice. This
is u information and POLK must admit
it's truth or deny it. THE GLOBE was
not in the war-the Old Man was in his
swaddling clothes in those days.
But if he had been in the wal he would
never had hid behind a damp and cold
stone wall in the shade to have had a
chill. He should have engaged in the
fray and warmed up:

such marked GOODNESS and bravery on the

JoNEs-HE-PAYs THE-FREIGHT has in
Dictated a willingness to run on the indie

This particular JONES is lieutenant gov
ernor Of the empire state and his flirta-
ton with the independents is an indica-
ton that he does not propose to be ig-
nored by by the democrats without re-
senting the indignity.
The story Of the negro who was shot
at is worth thinking about. DAVIS says
he is going there tonight. He says he
has been there once. The trouble is that
when a negro is shot at the officials do
not worry. But let a negro shoot at a
white man and the hounds of the fields
would be let loose TO find the man. And
this is where the negro question causes
trouble. No man had a right to shoot at
TURNER, and when it was known that
young Turner (white) had shot at old
TURNER (black), it was manifestly the
duty Of the constable and the officers to
see to it that young TURNER (white) was
punished. This is the business OF it and
the logic of it.

THE HERALD has received a circular
from the Keystone, the organ OF the
jewelry trade, asking for design for an
article on souvenir spoons" We are
asked to kindly suggest an appropri-
cate subject or design for spoon, that
"would serve to recall some well-remem-
''bered spot. or some character taken
'from history, poetry or art" with such
remarks as we may think necessary.
The only subject that occurs to us now
is the eventful career of General Ben
jamin F. Butler in New Orleans. II
seems to us that our contemporary is
wasting good deal of energy in discur-
sive efforts. To the average citizen il
would look as if an application to the
strabismic hero of New Orleans and Dutch
Gap would be most fruitful in sugges
tions in the line sought to be exploited.

WE ARE pleased to learn that our
esteemed confrere, Mr.. H. q. Osborne,
of the Express, has at last fallen into a
comfortable federal berth. President
Harrison has appointed him collector of
the port of Wilmington, vice P. HI.
Downing, deceased. Our felloweditor
is worthy of much more lucrative and
distinguished appointment from the ex-
isting administration. He should have
been placed in the Office of public prin-
ter; and, failing in that, it would have
been an act of grace and gratitude on
the part of the president, who owes him
so much, to have named him as one Of
the federal appraisers. There has been
fatality attending the Office of collec-
tor of the port OF Wilmington which, to
one of superstitious makeup, would
have been a drawback to the acceptance
of the appointment. Collector Briefly
died soon after his term expired; Col
lector Kinds lost one of his eyes during
his incumbency; Collector Stowe filled
the position a short time and died J;
and Collector Downing was called
away soon after he had received his
commission. If the hoodoo is to con-
tinue, we hope that in the case of our
contemporary it will be modified in its
severity to something very mild-say,
such slight mal-de-tete as might fol-
low symposiacal celebration with his
friends Of his accession to the position.
