elgh August Sd TO nominate candidate

Randolph, and A.. ID. Jones, Of Wake.
The Supreme Court ISSUES an order tnat
hereafter no cases will be argued on Mon
days.
GOOD SELECTION.
Mr.. II. NJ. Eames has been assigned the
work OF making the collection OF gold ores
from the most important districts of the
State for the North Carolina department
at the Worlds Fair. His selection Is an
excellent one, as he Is thoroughly in
formed.
The county commissioners all over the
State are revising the pension lists. Many
new applications for pensions have been
fled aud will be forwarded 10 the state
Auditor. In this county ninety-twO pen
sions will be paid this year and there are
ten new applicants.
WELL DONE.
The work of collecting the farm statistics
under the new law is being quite well done
this year, the Commissioner OF Agriculture
says he has every reason 20 believe. Last
year 1t was done impertectly. or not done
at all. and as result no reports could be
published by the Department OF Agricul-
turs, though a great deal Of time was
wasted in an attempt TO summarize the re-
turns. This wear the tax-list takers Were
plainly given 10 understand that they
would be punished If they failed 20 do
their duty and get these farm statistics at
the same time their taxes were listed.

fBy Anglo-Amerlcan cable TO the Dispatch
LONDON, July lathe registered elect
ors in the Midlothian division OF Edin-
burg shire, which Dir. Gladstone has re-
presented in Parliament since 1850, mum.
Der Il, 236, and the polling lists show that
IL 900 of them cast their ballots. 1he re-
suit shows great change in political SEN
timent in Midlothian. Hitherto the dis
trict has been looked upon as belonging
to Mr.. Gladstone. and his canyasses have
been regarded as covering the entire coun-
try in the interest of the various candi-
dates of the party rather than Midlothian
alone.
GREAT sHRrSKAoE.
Mr.. Gladstone's actual majority this
wear il 500 votes. In 1855 Mr.. Gladstone
received majority of 1861. and at the last
general election of 1886 the district was
regarded as such Liberal stronghold that
the Unionists did not run candidate.
TORY REJOICING.
The Conservatives and Liberal Unionists
are in hlgh glee over the result. Hey say
that if anywhere in Great Britain cam
paign of education has been carried on II
has been in Midlothian. There MIR. Glad
stone IN his numerous addresses has eS-
planned as fully as he explains anything
the real intentions of the Liberal party.
They hold that the announcement OF To-
day shows that he has sIgnally failed IN
winning supporters TO the home-ruie
scheme.
