THE STATE CHRONICLE CHANCES
HANDS.

NEGOTIATIONS which have for some
time been pending between Hon. !.
K. Iernigan and Mr.. Iosephus Daniels
for the purchase of the Raleigh State
CvmicLe by the former gentleman OF
the latter, have been consummated,
and Mr.. Daniels announces his retire
ment in Sundays issue. Mr.. ternigan' 5
appears in Tuesdays paper.
1t is modest, dignifed and in good taste.
Mr. Daniels gives as his reason for
selling the fact that he was not flnan :
cially able to run it as it should be.
He made good paper Of the CAr0nl-
cIe, and welded All influence for good.
It's impress was stamped upon journal
ism and politics in the State, IS we'll
as upon all questions Of right and
morals as Mr.. Daniels saw them. No
man of his age has made more en-
viable reputation in journalism or out
of it in North Carolina in recent years.
1t is to be hoped he Will not put aside
the editorial pen altogether, but in
whatever direction he may bend his
energies and apply his talents he has
the best wishes of the GOLD LEAF and
thousands 0: friends throughout the
State for his success and prosperity.
Mr.. Jernigan comes to the editorial
chair not as stranger. He has had
newspaper experience in which was
exhibited rare aptness and ability tol
the work. He will be remembered as
editor first of the MtelHgenter, weekly
paper which he conducted with signal
success previous to becoming one OF
the editors of the Nr70S and ObSerUs,
His work on both papers was of the
highest class. He is strong and
forCeful writer, vigorous in style and
pleasing in manner, and is in all re-
spects one of the best furnished and
ablest journalists in the State. His
return to the editorial chair will be
welcomed by his brethren of the press
and all advocates of sound Democratic
principles, OF which he is such a
staunch and well equipped champion.
Already the Chronicle shows improve
ment under Mr.. Jernigan's manage
mcnt. He has changed the form Of
the paper, making it four pages, seven
columns to the page, and given it a
new and much neater heading-and
we like that better. He has the abil-
ity to conduct it up to high standard
of excellence and the financial means
to make such improvements as may be
needed in a first class daily paper, as
the support given like enterprises in
North Carolina will warrant.

TIE WORLDS FAIR.

North I ,srOllna should be we'll rep
resented IL Creditable exhibit of its
resources nd industries at the Worlds
Fair. 1t unfortunate that there is
no State preparation for this purpose
but that s ould not keep us from max
ing good showing nevertheless. The
Agricultural Department will do its
the hearty cooperation of all patriotic
citizens. tate pride and a sincere
desire TO ,dvertise ourselves to the
world and ;,roft thereby should be in
Cen,ive en- ugh to secure such a dis
play as W i not cause North Carolina
to suffer il comparison with her sister
COmmonw calths. And now IS the
time to begin the work of preparation.
The agricultural exhibit must be ar
ranged for. We give this week pict-
ure of the Agricultural Building to-
gether witt a graphic description OF
the same. Since we are chiefly an
agricultural people we desire to see
North Carolina farm products well
represented in that building. Thus
early we should bear this fact in mind.
The seed must be sown this spring.
Let our farmers plant and gather with
view to sending something to the
Worlds Fair.
1t is we'll to remember that the
Worlds Columbian Exposition IS not
a three day "county fair" it is not a
six-day " State fair" it is not thirty
day municipal exposition 1t IS not
the repetition of the " National Cen
tennial of 1876" or the "three-Amerl-
can expositions of 1885" 1t is more
than all these combined. 1t will en-
brace 400 years OF time, and all the
progress in every line and channel IN
which the people of the whole earth
have moved and wrought. In the ag-
gregatc it viii be so extensive and far
reaching, 81 wonderful and marvellous
that North Carolina, in her greatest
efforts in &, pcnse, in skill, in energy,
in taste, il good Judgment, in prepare
ton, man cement and accomplish
mcnt, will be but "drop in the
ocean" Int we should cndeavor to
make that lrop as conspicuous by its
Completer IS and excellence as it is
possible t DO.
The BIZ providing for the erection
of public lildings in towns whose
postofticc Ceipts amount to $4,000
and upwar S. annually, as heretofore
mentione, in these columns, has pass

Carolina w)uld be entitled to build

The L:"oir 2obit is hopeful Of the
political outlook in North Carolina
and the Country at large, and believes
the sober .tter judgment OF the pco-
pie will p cvail. In such case the sue
cess of III, Democracy is assured. 1t
will not do to divide and run off after
strange goes and all sorts of visionary
schemes Al this time. The Topic says:
Courage, brethren. The skies are
Frightening. The appearances are
all favorable. Democratic prospects are
growing il every direction. We see in
dications Of 4 great Democratic tidal
wave that promises to sweep the coun-
try and assure us of a glorious and
overwhelming victory.
