The Lecture Saturday Night.
Hon. John Temple Graves, Of
Georgia, gave 70 the citizens of
Durham q rare treat on Satur-
day night at Stokes Hall. His
theme was, "The Reign Of the
Demagogue," and he handled il
in such a manner as to give
great satisfaction to the large
audience that greeted him.
This was the first Of a series
of lectures to be delivered here
in the interest OF Trinity Col
lege and the up-building of the
city in D literary point of Wow.
We fear that Trinity has given
us the good wine at the begin
ming. Ii the lecturers to follow
do not bestir themselves they
will fall behind Mr.. Graves.
We hope they viii be able to
come up to him
These lectures are far mors
beneficial to Durham than any
one at q first thought would
think.
The eyes of many citizens
were opened on Saturday night
70 important facts that they
had not given q thought, be-
fore that time.
We sincerely hope our people
will be As generous IN the fu.
ture as they were on Saturday
night, and If the lectures TO
come are fraught with as much
interest as the one we have al.
ready had they will be on hand
every time.

The Fatal Grin

An eminent physician in New York
describes the grip as specific epedemic
and endemic disease due to the animal
microbe. which reproduces itself again
and again" Like all microbian diseases,
he SAYS, it has definite period OF incu-
baton. In sou,e respects it is mar.
velous germ, able to multiply in the air
and reproduce itself. 1t most readily at
tacks children or old people who have
become feeble The cold weather does
not destroy the germ OF grip. but only
renders it less active. A very severe
winter, beginning early and lasting late
in the spring, would wipe out the grip
bacilli. At present the New York doc
tors agree that the conditions point to a
ve-y grave danger from the disease dur
ing the next month or two, in their city,
and persons are especially warned to
guard against exposure or doing anything
that will lower their vitality, because a
weak person cannot withstand a severe
attack OF the disease.

now admit that Cleveland will got the
electoral vote Of that state and that his
election ia assured. They are turning
their attention to tho election Of third
party candidates for congress, and will
be satisfied to get an increase OF repre-
sentation in that body. The populists
OF the south are patriots. They know
that the loss Of any of their states to
Cleveland by reason Of the third party
detection would almost make Harrison's

them, before another four years rolled

OF a successful political campaign
than good music. Great Falls was full
OF it during the sessions Of the demo-

was harmony and enthusiasm in making
the ticket. The success Of the monster
ratification meeting in Helena, Wednes-
day night, was due in a large degree TO
the sweet strains Of tho Emmett Guard

That band is the sort of democratic
combination to make democracy en-.
