Historical Societies.

Historical societies exist in ma
jority of the States of the Union
which have been potent influences in
stimulating historical investigation
and in gathering historical material.
Quite three hundred volumes have
issued from the historical societies of
New England and the Northwest,
and in order to investigate properly
any subject in our history one must
travel or correspond with Madison,
Wis.,; Worcester, Washington, or
Boston. No active historical society
exists in North Carolina. Therefore,
it has seemed wise to mean in
dividual worker, to invite all those
interested in historical study to meet
at Morehead City, June 27th, to es-
tablish historical society in North
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES in charac-
ter, and seeking TO embrace in its
membership all earnest historical
workers, in Or out Of schools, young
or old.
The object of tie society shall be
to collect, embody and preserve, a
library of books, pamphlets, maps,
charts, manuscripts, papers and other
material illustrative of State history:
to rescue from oblivion the memory
Of its early life and pioneers to
exhibit faithfully the antiquities and
the past and present condition and
resources Of North Carolina, and to
take proper steps to promote the
study of history by lectures and with
legislative assistance, to publish and
difuse information relatiye to the
history of the State.
Trusting to have your counsel
and your sympaty, either in person
or by letter, | am,
Most Respectively Yours,

COL. l., l., POLK DEAD,

A special telegram to The ARGUS
Saturday at noon announces the
death Of Col. L. L. Polk, the Third
Party leader and president of the
National Farmers Alliance, which
occurred of blood-poisoning at the
Garfield Hospital, in Washington,
u. c., Saturday morning, after a
brief illness.
His death had been expected for
three days, and as the news of his
dangerous illness had been heralded
throughout the country, this an
nounced that he has at length come
down to occupy the narrow house
that is the portal through which all
mortals must enter into Immortality
will not be received with surprise,
although it will be read with the
deepest regreet by thousands in this
State as we'll as throughout the
United States.
Col. Polk was native, we believe
of Anson county and was probably
some SO years of age.
No man in public life of this gen
Grafton has his history before the
people more thoroughly than is thai
of Col. T.. L. Polk. It is not the
province, therefore, of this article tt
do more than to make this announce
ment that he is no more.

sleep we'll.

the hour and the yicissitudes of the

the hour and the vicissitudes Of the
future.
At the service Thursday morning
Mr.. Fife extended to all who would
an invitation to express their senti-
ments in regard to the meeting then
drawing to a close. The ministers
of the several churches of our city
spoke first, and they spoke
from full hearts and in burn
ing words, mellowed and softened
with emotions of joy at the CONVEX
sion and retaining of so many
souls. Then all over the tent many
laymen s2elled the grand-the uni
versal chorus of commendatiop.
Nor was that sweet singer, Mr.. W.
J. Ramsey, Mr.. Flies choir master,
who has sung his way into the hearts
of all our people, forgotten-nor will
he ever be. He was presented
with handsome purse Thursday
afternoon as purely free will offer
ing on the part of our people.
Crowded for space and the late
ness of the hour prevents. us from
giving more extended notice at
this time. A cursory summing shows
that SOP cards were issued to con-
verts up 10 and including Thursday
nights meeting of these 317 have
already been returned with the fol-
loving church preferences: Meth
odist, .144; Baptist, 80; Presbyterian,
55; Episcopal, Is; undecided, 81;
Quaker, 2.
Mr.. Fife left at noon Friday for
his heme in Fayetteville, accompa-
MED by his excellent Christian
wife, who has done great good by
her tireless aid in the meetings here:
may God bless both, as we know
He ever will, abundantly.
Mr.. Fife opens meeting in Rocky
Mount on Thursday, June 23,which
will be his last meeting until the
Fall.
