AFTER THE NOMINATION
Little Benny Busy Pulling the Wires in
His Own Interest

Going to New York to Finally Fix up
the Matter-Secretary Blaine De-
clines to go Along to be at the Grant
Monument Ceremonies % h r
News of the Wire.
WAsHINGToN, April 25.-Mr. Har
rison's visit to New York, while os-
tenslbly for the purpose of attending
the laying of the corner stone of the
Grant monument, is in reality for
the purpose of settling the question
of his candidacy for. renomina-
ton.
He will carry with him the two
men who were taken into the cabi
net solely to bring about his renomi
nation -Secretari Foster and Elk
kins-and while there these political
manipulators will meet the Rep ubli-
can bosses of New York and other
States and try to make bargains with
them.
Secretary Foster has just returned
from Ohio, where he went to lay
Harrison wires, and there is reason
for believing, although he maintains
! to the contrary, that he found the
anti Harrison sentiment too strong
for him, and that the Ohio delega-
ton will go to Minneapolis unin
| structed. With such States as Penn
| sylvania and Ohio sending uninstruc-
| ted delegations. it becomes neces,
sary tor Mr.. Harrison to capture the
| New York delegation or throw uI
/ the sponge.
Some gossip has been caused by
the report that Mr.. Blaine was very
briske in his refusal of the invita-
ton to accompany Mr.. Harrison anC
the administration party which is tt

to take part in laying the corner
stone of the Grant monument OF

THAT ALLIANCE DICKER.

What will the staunch Demo-
cratic masses think of the party
leaders if they consider for a mo-
ment the proposition of Polk,
Butler and Skinner, the Third
party combine, for coming to
terms of peace in State politics?
1t is no time to oicker with an
enemy and The SENTINEL trusts
that no good Democrat will be
caught mapping, while the ut
tempts are being made to work
this scheme.
Ifthis proposition to allow the
straight Democrats to name the
State ticket, and the Third party
men to name the delegates to the
National Convention, is agreed
upon the result will be entirely
to the advantage of tie Polk
crowd.
The State ticket would almost
certainly be opposed by a Third
party ticket, and the SO called
Democratic delegates would &C
to Omaha instead Of Chicago.
This is another strategy of The
enemy to distract the Democratic
forces.

THAT IsA PATHETIC story about
James G. Blaine told by Chris
MAJ zee, in which the greatest liv-
ing Republican says that he
would not take the oath of Office
If elected.
And the most pathetic part of
the story is that it is true. Mr..
Blaine realizes his physical con-
dition. Should President Har-
rison be reelected he will doubt
less be unable to carry even the

for another four years.

of this class of soap, it say:

CARE OF OUR INSANE.

North Carolina has an enviable
reputation for the care of her
helpless unfoI tunatess and her
public charitable institutions are
inferior to those of none OF her
sister states of relative wealth
and population. Such institu-
tions are the products of our civ
ilazation, and the care of the
poor, the helpless and in the IN
sane, the unfortunate, in short,
charity is a true index of the civ
ilization and enlightment of any
community.
North Carolina must sustain
herself aIongthis line. The state
ment of the Board of Directors
and the Superintendent ci the
| Morganton State Hospital,
shows that the institution is
crowded and unable to meet the
| demands that are constantly be-
ing made upon it. 1t appears
that many unfortunate people
who need treatment within It's
walls are crowded out for long
time, and it is well known fact
that a delay in treatment is one
Of the chief reasons why many
cases Of insanity are never cured
Prompt treatment for all diseases
and especially diseases of the
mind. A man doesn't have to
be a specialist to know this.

tions for the increase of the CO

THE WORK OF CONGRESS.
Dull Times are Expected Throughout
This Week.

WASHINGTON, April 26.-In contrast
with the lively scenes of last week,
the proceedings of both branches of
Congress during the present week
promises to lack public interest. The
managers of the House, in pursuance
of their program of pushing the reg
ular appropriation bills through in
order to secure opportunity for the
further considera ton of the tariff
bill and hasten the approach of final
adjournment, have decided to devote
the entire week to the consideration
of these measures The diplomatic
and consular appropriation bill will
be one of the first called up. This
measure has already been severely
made in existing law, and will doubt
less be subject of further attack upon
the floor After this bill is passed,
there may be a conflict for the right
of way, between the friends of the
sundry civil appropriation bill and
the friends of the river and harbor
appropriation bill, and both of these
measures contain SO many items OF
vital interest to members of the
House that prolonged discussion is
certain to follow WHEN they are taken
up for consideration. Appropriation
bills are likely to figure largely in the
Senate proceedings also during th'
week. The Army appropriation bill
is on the calendar, and will be called
up at the first opportunity. 1t will
be followed 10y the naval appropria
ton bill, which will be reported in ;
day or two accompanied by al
amendment increasing threefold tn
number of new ships to be construct
ed for the Navy.

Mr.. Abbot l.. Swinson, secle-

ance has issued the following
Third party call:
"The citizens of Wayne County,
who are earnestly and truly in favor
of the ST. Louis demands, and are
willing to stand by them as til Peo

ciple. and who as-Alliancemen and
true reformers would evidence in

Goldsboro, N. c., Friday, May l3,

for this County a People S party,
promising in advance, that no Butler

| Every person who favors the forma
tion of Peoples Party upon the st

by principle, rather than policy and
intrigue in OBJ tanning and repudiates
the idea of cap uring any o. her parry
machine as a means to gain their
ends, are invited to come. The
question of color or previous political
affiliations are waived in this fight
for rural and and urban labor upon
the merit of principle
From this it will be seen that
Buffers methods are repudiated
by the men he presnmes to lead.

deplore the desertiou of the par
ty by those who have affiliHted
in the past, they will prefer to
meet an avowed and honest enc
my to a man of Buffers STAMP
who is striving to pervert the

than a traitor in the camp

But it cannot applaud Il MAJ

SILVER.

If silver keeps on the down
grade in price, some more of the
big mines of Butte, Montana,
will have to cease operatisns.
The Clear Grit and Black Rock
closed recently. The Granite
Mountain, OF Montana, and the
Ontario, of Utah, are two of the
great silver mines of the country
which can keep on sometime
longer, but few others can.
The outlook for silver at this
session of Congress does not ap-
pear to be very good. and its
friends are not so hopeful as be-
fore the session commenced.
The gradual drop in the price
of silver is very discOuraging to
the miners IN the silver CAMPS.
AS there are more silve,. mining
camps than gold, this greatly
affects the mining industry. In
some of th-. big camps work is
bound TO give out for the men
unless there is a change for the
bet ter shortly y. Not only must
those mines now opened curtall
operations, but new ones will
not be developed until the pros
pc: lis are better than at present.
Ores of gold, copper, and lead
will be morrin demand for a W hile
until the silver question is settled.
1t is most unfortunate that it
should have got into politics.

lowing to the current member OF

GItseems to me that if the name
of Mr.. Frank III. Fries had been
suggested in connection with
Democratic nomination for Con
gress in this district, when the
re tirement of Col. Co vles leaves
the field open to new unen, thel e
could have been no difference of
opinion to the propriety and
and policy of the proposition, as
there was when he was spoken OF
as candidate for Governor. Mr..
Fries is one of the most valuable
men in North Carolina. Now, he
is, in my opinion, the best equip
ped and the most availa bic man
whom the Democrats could nom
ina.e to succeed Col. Cowles. |
trust that he may be elected as
our standard-bearer in the com
ing contest"
If Col. Fries could be induced
to accepethe nomination the dis
trict could not send a better rep
resentative.
