GEN. VANCE'S VIEWS,

In recent number of the Asheville
Citizen appears an interview with
General r. b. Vance, on the Guber-
material nomination, in which General
Vance says: 81 think it would be a
nice thing for the Democrats to nomi-
nate Governor Holt this year. 1t
would be in the regular order of things
for this to be done, as he is now filling
the unexpired term of the late Cover
nor Fowle."
General Vance is a member of the
Alliance, and having talked with o
number of the order ourselves, We
know that he but voices the sentiment
of many who can but see that Cover
nor Holt is a typical North Carolinian,
representing in his own vocation the
agricultural interest of the State, and
possessing from practical experience a
knowledge of what will best protect
and promote that interest.
We see Governor Holt nearly every
day, as he is engaged in the discharge
of his official duties in the Capitol, and
aside from the fact that the nomination
for Governor is due him as matter
of courtesy and custom, he justly de.
serves it by the able and impartial
manner in which he has administered
the affairs Of the State. We have had
many able Governors of this State
some whose administrations have left
lasting benefits, but even the short
time Governor Holt has been in office
he has so administered public affair;
as to make his administration one O
the very best the State ever had. /
has been honest, safe and beneficial
such one as every citizen should fee
pride In maintaining.
If the farmers of North Carolin,
could know Governor Holt as he reall,
is; could understand that he too ha
guided the plow, and is now practi
cal farmer; that he possesses the sens
of justice and right which recognize
the protection due to all occupations
a principle which underlies the safet
of society, they would see that he wa
nominated for Governor by the COZ
vention to assemble in this city on th
18th of May, next.
We regard our present Executiv
as a true North Carolinian, devoted t
the best interest of his State, and i
every essential particular fully i
touch with needs of the people, an
in accord with them on the gre:
question of financial reform.

SHOULD BE UNDERSTOOD NOW.

There are a class of men in this
State who have very excited political
aspirations. They have no settl d
plans, and no settled convictions, but
are ready to 60 into Office On any wave
of popular sentiment. They are not
particular about the character of their
political pabulum. They are ready to
swallow and assimilate any thing that
will quiet their nerves or act as a sed-
ative to their unhealthy ambition. Just
now many of these gentlemen are
counting the smiles of the Farmers
Alliance. The wooing is earnest, and
there is no mistaking the intensity ol
the apparent affections. 1t is believed
by them that the surest way to win is
to travel faster than the Alliance, and
point to their advance position as ar
evidence Of fealty. Everything thai
has value is to be regarded as sublec
for confiscation, and against it the,
must sound their battle cry.
These gentlemen had better realiz,
now that they were never making /;
greater mistake. They have mis-
judged the objects of the Alliance, an,
they do not understand the rulin,
characteristics of the North Carolin,
farmer. There is nothing in the tru
objects of the Alliance inimical t.
property. They only seek to regulat
It's power, not to destroy or cripple it
and the farmers of North Carolin
will never Intentionally approve legis
lation tending to abridge the legiti
mate functions of property. 1t woul
be well for those who would give tn
color of communism to an homes

Tomorrow is Christmas day and we must not
omit the good old custom Of wishing all our
readers MERRY CHRISTMAS Christmas is
a sedson of good will to men, and ought there
fore to be a sea-oh of good will among men
also and we trust that the present Christmas
will not pass without having it's full share Of
those happy reconciliations which are not
only so appropriate to the season, but also
bring in theiH rain their own reward IN the
peace Of a'consciehce void of offence towards
God and towards man.

We learn that some gentlemen in this

for Monday, the 2eth instant, to come off at

There will also. be a race for labourers' ponies,
IN which a good many have agreed to take
part. All persons DESTROYS of seeing the

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Chloride of lime is a sure preventative
for rats.
An excellent way to clean old brass IS
10 rub it with q brush saturated with
household ammonia.
A few drops of turpentine sprinked
where cockroaches congregate will ex-
terminate them at once. Moths also flee
from the odOr Of it.
To remove scorches, boil an onion and
squeeze out the juice, put with it soap,
fuller's earth and vinegar, very little OF
each. Spread the mixture on the
scorched place and leave till dry. Rinse
thoroughly.
To wash lawn OF thin muslin, boil two
quarts of wheat bran in six quarts OF
water for half an hour. Strain through
A coarse towel, and mix in the water IN
which the muslin is to be washed. Use
no SOAP and no starch. Rinse lightly in
fair water. This preparation both
cleauses and stiffens the lawn.

FASHION NOTES.

Blue and green are colors now USED in
combination.
Wide sashes of black watered ribbon
are in demand.
White bunting is favorite material
for house dresses.
Black silk ulsters are shown for dust
cloaks for travelling.
Gloves have very long cuffs. Some of
them are very deliberately embroidered
in gold, jet or steel.
Surah silk is not the favorite it was Of
old. 1t does not wear as we'll as Others
owing to the stiffness in it.
Deep Spanish fringes in black silk
cord, having a latticew work pattern, arc
seen on light silks, over which black lace
is used.
The shoes for evening wear, at present,
almost always match the toilet, and the
material made use of in the gown is often
seen in them.
In novelties in dress fabrics it is i'm
possible to escape from pltternei mater
ials. Every textile fabric shows some
device or other The most "Frenchy"
combine stripes and brocaded figures.
The diversity in round hats and bon
nets is more displayed in the trimming
than in the shapes, which have not ma
terialIy changed. In the hats the brims
are narrow and the crowns very small.
A great novelty is shown in chiffon
scarfs, with fringel and satin striped
ends and striped edges, which are draped
around the hat, and either knotte in
full bow or the ends left hanging in the
back.
The long street skirts are going out of
fashion, and in their place is a prettily
shaped round skirt, which just escapes
the ground. Demi-trains are for calling
and house wear, and long trains appear
only on very elaborate occasions.
The very latest Partisan fancy is the
Greek bonnet. 1t is made OF jet, and in
front is a jet moon. Instead OF the con-
ventional ribbon ties are three strings OF
let beads, fastened on either side by
crescent, and finished at the back with
mauve and green aigrette six inches
high.

are that the combination will produce

1t costs but little more to raise athree-

better profit than the steer II poorly
bred, he pays less.

Here is a hint in regard to the pre-
ventiOn of dust that is well worth
attention. Dutch artists Of old, who
had a perfect terror Of dust, always
chose, if possible, to have their studios
In close proximity to a canal. II this
was not practicable they got over the
difficulty by keeping large tub Of
water in their studios, most Of the
dust flying about the room being
caught in this receptacle. The neigh
borhood Of a river, the substitute for
the Dutch canal, may not always be
desirable at the present time, but a
bowl Of water, especially in these
days, when VIC rejoice in any excuse

rooms is within cverybOdy's reach

AGGRESSIVE, PROGRESSIVE WOMAN.
A young woman in St. Louis made
$1,000 last year furnishing bread to the
Woman's Exchange. She was a high
school graduate and wanted to teach,
but while waiting for a place turned to
bread making. She now has built a
large oven at home aud is satisfied with
her profession. Miss Louise E. Francis
is the Editor and proprietor of the Castro
vile (Cal.) Enterprise. AS editor she
writes every line in her paper, she keeps
her own books, is her own advertising
agent, and not long ago, when her fore
man was away and her printers struck,
she rolled up her sleeves, set the type,
ran the press and got her paper off
to mall herself. Miss Francis is only
twenty two, and is making money. Mrs.
Ida A. Harper until recently was the
managing editor of the Terre Haute
Daily News. She is now the associate
editor OF the indianapolis News. Her
capacity for work is large. At one time
she travelled and wrote different letters
to eleven different Journals, each unlike
the other. Mrs Mary Eagle, the vile
of Governor Eagle of Arkansas, is re-
garded as the best osrliameutarian in
the Womau's Board of Managers for the
Worlds Fair. While Governor Eagle
was Speaker of the Arkansas House of
Representatives she thorou yhly familiar
lied herself with parliamentary usage.
A cooperative dressma&ing establish
ment has been started in St. Louis. By
paying so much cash down, according
to ones means, each customer is for that
occasion a stakeholder and receives her
dress finished according to contract. -

"TrappIng" steam.

We say that we shell" peas when
we unshell them, and for the Same
reason Of cOntraries, probably, We
speak Of a steam-trap when it is a
trap intended to catch the water and
let the steam go free. Be that as it
may, 8eyer-and they say that "a
rose would smell as sweet by any
other name-steam-traps are very
useful and sensible affairs, whero
there are long lines Of pipe between
boiler and engine or heating appara-
tus. They save cylinder heads or
pistons being smashed by the water,
which is either carried over from the
boiler or formed by condensation OF
the steam against the cold walls OF
the pipes. They stop the hammer
ing which is heard in steam-heated
buildings where the steam comes a
long way, particularly If it comes on
horizontal lines. If they are prop
erly constructed and mounted they
will return to the boiler the water
of condensation, and thus prove coal
savers, for the hotter the feed water
is the more cheaply steam can be
made. Furthermore, it is much bet
ter to run back into the boiler the
water that has dropped its scale or
other deposit, than to introduce new
feed with new quantities Of material
which tend to coat the sheets.

The Newspaper.

Philip Gilbert Hamerton, in his papers
on "Intellectual Life" thus speaks Of
the paper: newspapers are to the
civilized world what the daily house. talk
is to the members Of the family-they
keep our daily interest in each other,
they save US from the evils of isolation.
To live as a member OF the great whit

SUMNER GOWNS.

The princess gown is still feature OF
prevailing styles. 1t is strange, too,
for there is no other mode of cutting
dress which is so hard to make a
good fit. 1t is especially used in the
wool crepons, which are so pretty and
so cheap. If it were not for the appal-
ling prices good dressmakers charge,
there is no reason in the world why
everyone should not have pretty gowns
this summer. With ginghams, summer
silks, India silks, wash silks and wool
crepons all at fifty cents yard, and
point de gene lace at astonishingly low
prices, every one of us ought to look as
dainty as dainty can be. And then these
things can be made up so simply, with
not a scrap of trimming except band
of velvet ribbon round the waist aud the
bottom of the sleeves and tie collar,
which is finish enough.-Chicago Her

lExTRAoRDrNARY CONVERSATIONS on HATS.
Hats for summer of every sort and
kind, and as variously trimmed, are to
be worn, aud the most extraordinary
combination of colors appears in the
decoration. In some cases it requires
all the skill OF the miliners to make the
result other than either flashy or dowdy,
the claim for admiration resting upon
that very doubtful quality sometimes put
forth as a plea for liberation, if not for
admiration, that its beauty consists in
its ugliness. "Uncommon" certainly
some of the bonnets aud hats look, aud
whether it be that what is fashionable
needs no other rec )mmendation in wo-
mems eyes, or that the milliner has at
tanned such perfection in her art, and
such nice discrimination in the blending
of colors, it is certain that shades origi'
nally hostile to each other eau now be
reconciled. New York Post. -
