In another column will be found
a call from Chairman, M. M. Kiliett,
for a convention of the Peoples
Party for Sampson to nominate a
county ticket, etc. We regret to see
this, tor in our opinion it is a mis-
take. AS we said last week, it will
divide our people and we fear put
the next Legislature in the hands Of
the enemies of the people. We
trust that the delegates to the State
convention will be instructed not to
put out State ticket. There is no.
thing to be gained by defeating the
present ticket. Thousands Of re-
formers took part in nominating
that ticket headed by Ellas Carr,
thousands ale satisfied with it and
thousands will vote for it. Then to
put out another ticket would be sui
eidAl. The editer of this paper has
nothing personal at stake. He is
simply interested, as every other
citizen should be, In what he consid-
ers to be for the best interest of his
State. THE CAUCASIAN is for the
present State ticket and will advo-
cate it and vote for it under any and
all circumstances.

work of dozen men. AS the day

POLITICS SEPARATES Low
ERS

There were two people at the
Minneapolis convention who sepa-
rated to travel in opposite directions
the remainder of their lives unless
they shall hereafter recall their
determination. One was man from
Ohio and the other a woman from
Colorado. They bad been lovers
and sweethearts in other days, but
on account Of one of these estrange-
ments which intervene in the cur
rent of affection they had drifted
apart. The young woman was with
her father at Minneapolis when she
met I -. old lover. He wore a
Harr -, ,ge, she Blaine ribbon.
The s. Ing a Chat she converted him,
and .Ce< promised to cast one
vote f IS Sc when the State of
Ohio shoG.e 2 De called. She was
with her father in the gallery wait
ing to see the moment of her
triumph, for on the fulfillment of
the young mans agreement to cast
a ballot for Blaine hung his destiny
in the hands of the young woman
from Colorado, The State of Ohio
was called in its turn, and the only
vote in the delegation that was not
for Mckinley was for Harrison, and
that was cast by Mckinley. On
this announcement the young wo-
man and her father left the hall and
that night they took the train for
home, the young woman leaving a
note charging the young Ohioan
with cowardice. He confided the
story to friend in Chicago on his
return from the convention.-Chica.

they say to Congress you cannot af-

it is a fine straddle that you can in
terpret North one way and South

commenting on the silver vote says
"let the great business interests of

chievous and dangerous measure has
been killed for good" Now if the

it TO mean that both metals shall

ratio of coinage, but construe it to
mean that Congress shall determine
that ratio, and who can affirm that
If Congress shall decide by the pas
sage of the Senate bill to declare

from the hand Of adverse legislation,
will not speedily reassert that parity
with gold bullion which prevailed

TO YOUNG LADIES OF SAMPSON.

The Normal and Industrial School
of North Carolina, located at Green's
boro, will be ready for the admis-
sion of students this fall. The pros
poets for usefulness of this institu-
tion for the young ladies of this
State are very fiattering, and we
hope and believe Sampson will be
well represented. The act estab-
fishing the Normal and Industrial
School contains the following langu-
age:
"The Board of Directors shall
make such regulations about the adj
mission of pupils as will not dis
criminate against any county as to
the number of pupils allowed it, in
case all applicants cannot be accom-
modated. Each county shall have
in proportion to its
white school population, if it de-
sires it; and should any county fail
to avail itself of it's proportionate
number, the Board of Directors may
recognize applicants from counties
which already have their proper
tionate representation"
The Catalogue of the school says
$50 far as recitation-room and
teaching force are concerned, the in
sGtution can accom- mOdate three OF
four hundred students but the
number it can accommodate with
board in its dormitory buildings is
limited to about one hundred and
twenty. Board can be had in good
families in Grt ensboro at from SIC

in the dormitory buildings of the
institution at So month";"
OF the one hundred and twenty
scholarships, with the privilege OF

son county IS entitled to two, and

Deafness Can't Be Cured

by local application, as they cannot
reacf the diseased portion of the

Deafness, and that is by constitution

an infiamed condition of the mucus
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets infiamed you
have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely clos

prc' Hing for the election Of U. icial
Senators Ivy the people without dele
eating to the Congress the power to
alter or amend State regulations or
otherwise interfer with the eiec-
tions, was discussed to-day, and,
when the demand for the "previous
question" was made, Messrs. Reed
and Burrows and their radical SYM
pathiZers commenced fliibustering.
The result was that there was no
vote on the bill and IL Is the COM
mon opinion among members that
this bill will never be | ermitted by
the Reed gang to become a law un-
less il be amended so that they can
gister the voters, count the votes,
and certify the result.
During the debate some one was
advocating the passage of the bill
and commanding the feature which
cuts off any Force bill mcddling
with the election of Senators, when
Mr.. Reed was heard to say: "D-n
them, we've let them 90 far enough.
We have the game in our own
hands," Yours very truly,

THE PANAMA. DiTCH.

Recent occurrences in France have
again called attention to the Panama ditch.
The disappointed share and bond holders
are besieging the French government to
advance the money or to guarantee the in
terest on loan sufficient to complete the
work as canal with locks. The amount
which they consider necessary is $780,
900, 200. The government has declined to
accede to the prayer of the petitioners,
and even the deputies who present the Pc
titions have no confidence in their ability
to persuade the government to assume the
desperate undertaking. The concession
from the Colombian government will en-
pire on the 2Sth of February, 1898, if the
work is not resumed. Although the
chamber of deputies declined to recon-
ed resolution inviting the minister of
justice to institute criminal proceedings
against the promoters of the enterprise if
the facts developed by the investigation
should warrant them.
The French investors in the scheme have
abundant reason for encouragement They
have put in $266, 100000 and the great
ditch has made but little progress. If the
government will not help them, and there
is no reason to think it will, they will be
in tight place. There is only a year
more for them to make some arrangements
in. 1t now looks as though work on the ca
nal, if continued at all, will be preceded by
the sale by the liquidators of the assets of
the company, regardless of the protests of
the security holders, for the best price
attainable. It is said that there are pur-
chasers ready if such a sale be offered, and
that capital is ready to make good the
conditions of the extended franchise.

Glimpses OF Byron.


Probably no man has ever suffered more
from unhappy domestic antecedents. The
son of a mother with whom he shared g
temperament which made them mutually
insupportable to each other, the son of 9
father whose early death was the best
boon he could have conferred on his infant
heir, Byron had no kin on either side to
fill the void which nature abhors, and
which an especially emotional nature like
his Graves to have filed. While from
earlier ancestry a tangle of embarrassment,
was demised to him, and his noble guar
dian showed to him the cold shoulder OF
distssteful superciliousness, he had ga
heart which, though faulty, was feeling, :"
and sensitively susceptible of all the mis-
chief of which this array of misohanoss
could produce.
With manifold charms of person, voice
and manner, and with features which
flashed a mobile mirror of emotion and in
tellect, he was dashed and marred by one
malformation, which, while it mortified
vanity, undermined physical health. Too
conscious of his besetting corpulent ten
dencies-these again being due to q mater.
nal source-he would persecute his consti-
tuition and exaoerbate the pungency of his
csprices by extreme dietary treatment, by
fits of self f-starvation and unwholesome
counter-agents to the dreaded obesity. By
means of tobacco-chewipg, green tea drink.
ing, breaking long fast on biscuits and sods
water, by an outbreak on potatoes, fish
stale fish, one bisgrapher ststes-and vim
egar, he carried on an unnatural self
coercion, q struggle between vanity and
svoirdupois. The loss of stone of flesh
weight gladdened him more than all the
sold copies of the "Corsair." 1t was
Adonis = but Adonis boiteuI pitted
against Sir John Falssaff, in the same
capricious personality; and even If he for
a while conquered the flesh" he retained
the "frailities." The consequences were
stomach in rebellion, liver stsgnating, and
temper ever at full cock of rebellious YER
satility, while his minor habits were 70
the last degree vagrsnt and non-domestic.
What a subject for mstrinony-this risky
mass of conflicting eccentricitiesi
