The formation and policy of the
incoming state administration will be
watched with an interest and curios-
ity never excited by any that has pre-
ceeded it The genuine populists OF
the state-those that subscribed un-
reservedly to the Omaha platform
are comparatively few. The recent
populist victory came through the
desire of certain republicans to record
their protest against the past treat
ment of silver, and of the democracy
to wrest the electoral vote of the
state from Harrison. Patterson's
sincerity as genuine populist is
generally questioned, but he claims
the credit for the results, and with
out doubt it was largely due to his
efforts through his paper. Ee is am
bilious with plans of his own. He
will try not only to control the fed
eral patronage of the state, but also
the most important of the state ap
pointments. The governor elect is
reported to have mind of his own
as well as opinions, and his policy
therefore and appointments will be
watched with interest 1t is reason
able to suppose that he will desire
to build up and strengthen his party
and he may think he best knows
how to do this, and resent any ad-
vice or outside meddling. At any
rate there is much curiosity outside
of applicants for places, and it is en-
HANGED by the fact that Mr.. Wait has
up to this time given no hint of his

An old Question Asked Anew

The old question has been lately asked anew, Why fill the infant mind with images of cruelty and horror? Why suggest to innocence the dreadful vision of ogres fattening captives like sheep for their table? Why torture it with that appalling cabalistic bloody invoca- tion, Fee, flaw, fun? Why permit the hoary murderer Blue Beard to terrify the young before in historical sequence they reach Henry VIII, in no exten- uating page of Froude, but as the grisly murderer and defender of the faith of the older annals? And why per. plex the callow pilgrim scarcely em. parked on the journey of life, which the reverend and the wise describe as a moral warfare, by the rhyme which de clares the greedy thief of plum from the copious pudding a good boy3
 Why is a glutton who triumphs in his gluttony to be commended in honeyed measure as good, while nothing is said in praise--nay, he is not even mentioned --of the virtue of the unnamed com rade, who was undoubtedly present and who restrained his desire to pull oul plums, and who, so far as posterity knows, not only had no plum, but alsC forbore the sauce?-George William Curtis in Harper's.

Railroad speed and Obstructions.

Two years ago a COW was seen in the middle of the Monon tracks in front of train. The engineer tried to stop, and the result was the locomotive was de- railed and the engineer killed. A few months ago the writer was riding on an engine on the Chicago division of the Pennsylvania, and herd of cattle got on the track. The train was running almost forty miles an hour, but when the engineer saw them he ''threw her wide open." and went into them at full seventy-fye miles an hour.
 No damage was done except to "muss up" the engine extensively. The engine man was asked why he had thrown on the extra speed. His reply was that had he been running slow it was eight chances to ton that he would have lefi the track. .-.-IpiisnspoIts News.

 Uncertain Pieces of Mechanism-Main- springs iu Expensive Watches.
 "Mainsprings are very much like peo- ple," said Broadway matchmaker the other day. They are as susceptible to extreme degrees of heat and cold as human beings. When the thermometer is lowering around the freezing point or dancing away up in the nineties the lit. tie handspring will give up in disgust and uncoil itself and die, just as men succumb to freezing or sunstroke."
 This uncertain piece of mechanism is supposed to be adjusted to meet the various degrees of temperature. but when the change is very great and comes with short notice there is nothing that can prevent them from suapping. They are made in Switzerland of tho very finest quality of steel, absolutely hawless, Very often the watchmaEer can detect bad spring before putting It Tn the watch, either by its color or the softness of it's spring. These have been too highly tempered in the making, and instead of being subjected to merely red heat the fire has been brought to White heat, thus weakening the strength ot the metal.

IN A COMMERCIAL WAY.
Why Durham Is a Live Town and One OF

Why Durham Is a Live Town and One of
the Fellows Who Make 1t Hum.
Travelling men all agree that Durham is
the Invest town in North Carolina, and
the reason that it is so is because live
men are running it. The m~ossbacks
have long since been pushed out by
younger and more enterprising competi-
tors and are no longer in it.
OF the young men who conduct big in
institutions and who help to make things
hum, w. III. Proctor, the grocer, is al
ways on deck. He is one of the fellows
who has made Durham what it is in a
commercial way, his W business being
an index to his ability in this line.
Commencing on a scale in keeping
with the size Of the town, Mr.. Proctor is
to day at the head of one of the largest
wholesale and retail grocery houses in
the state, and his business is every day
increasing. His hold upon the public is
readily explained. He sells good goods
and cheap goods and his customers know
it. In addition to his CITY trade he does
an extensive business with country mer-
chants, and the indications are that he
will be on earth for some years yet

GOVERNMENT COTTON REPORT.
n Deterioration Least in Texas and
Heaviest in North Carolina,

Heaviest in North Carolina.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1O.-The statisti-
clan of the Department of Agriculture
reports a reduction of 81 points in the
general percentage Of the condition Of
cotton-from 76S in September TO 70 3
in October. The deterioration is heaviest
in North Carolina and least in Texas OF
any Of the states of considerable pro-
duction. Georgia has maintained its
condition better than any other Atlantic
state. The percentages are: Virginia
II, North Carolina 80. South Carolina
%, Georgia IS, Florida So, Alabama 60,
Mississippi y, Louisiana II, Texas II,
Arkansas "A, Tennessee IS.
Rain in the early part of September
and cool nights later have caused the
rotting Of immature bolls in North Caro-
lima and South Carolina. The r is
maturing somewhat better in Georgia,
though excess Of moisture in the south
ern counties has been injurious. The
low condition Of Florida cotton in Sep.
TENDER has been further depressed by
heavy and incessant rainfall, which has
delayed picking. The low status of the
Alabama breadth is the result of wet
weather, insufficient cultivation, dispro-
p%Ortionate growth of stalk and fruit, and
rotting of young bolls. Somewhat more
favorable influences in Mississippi give
rise to more cheerful reports. Louisiana
cotton is very late and u~npromising from
excessive moisture through the season to
September ID, and cool nights since,
which d~iscOurages the expectations of
late planters. There is less complaint
and Encouragement in Texas than in
any other state. Areas planted late in
Arkansas are very u~npromising, though
recent favorable weather is rapidly open
ing the early bolls. Favorable weather
has recently succeeded the heavy rains
in Tennessee, and bolls are beginning to
open. A late and favorable autumn can
lone dispel the prevailing discourage
ment. The boil worm is most fire.
