GOVERNOR HOLT.

Few men have risen more in public
estimation than GOVERNOR HOLT.
At the time of his nomination to the
office of Acknowledgements, he was lit
tie known to the masses in this state,
and those of us who had the pleasure Of
his acquaintance considered him only a
good business man of high integrity and
respectable talents.
When the gifted FOwLE was taken
from us by the hand of death, many Of
us were painfully apprehensive that his
successor would suffer by a. comparison
Of the two, but this was of short dura-
ton, for GOVERNOR HOLT at once dis
played executive ability of a high order
and has, ever since, constantly grown in
public estimation.
In public address, no less bar in the
duties of the executive chambers, be has
been equal to the occasion, and to day
North C~arolineans, irrespective Of party,
are justly proud Of their governor.
Admitting the claims of many distin-
guished North CarOlineans, we do net
see hat the democracy Of the state can
do better than to nominate GOVERNOR
HOLT as his own successor
II tinitely superior to olHcIaI station, that
ll1ts him above party spirit and makes
hAhA thO liuC representative OF a great
people.
The above is from the Wilmington
Star, an able and conservative newspaper.
All we figure out is this:
That other distinguished North Caro-
lima men are, by their works, entitled to
consideration.
GOVERNOR Holt has made a good
ofticer-yet others may do as we'll.
We are not for or against him-vet
IHE GLOBE holds that the Star made q
mistake when it said that Holt was I'M
known as lieutenant governor. If that
be true, which it is not, then it would be
presumptious for him to want to be
elected governor.
BY chance which was most unfortu-
nate he became governor. The unfortu-
nate part of it was the death of FowLE.
What is the matter with BURGwYN,
STEADMAN, CALDWELL and others?
The Star forgets that these men have
made their presence felt long before they
have been in the executive chair.
Holt is able and a good man, vet he
must not let his friends convince him
that he has a patent right on the office.

The Mohican left San Francisco May 19
last conveying aud towing the United States
steamer Npsic to the new naval station at
Port Orchard. The summer was spent cruls-
ing in Boring Sea, and she succeeded in
capturing five poacheTs, which have all been
tried and found guilty. One cruise was
made TO the island of Attn, which is IN the
extreme west of the Alentian group. Two
OF the p0aehers were captured there, the
other three at Cooks Inlet. Most of the
cruising, however, was done In the vicinity
of Pribyloff Island. The weather was fine
and tie men all remained in excellent health
the whole cruise.

vessel launched at Mare Island in 1895, but

Darkness.
The return of Professor Jack Tanning to
the ranks of the Friscos proved beneficial TO

win the game but his men played an eleven
inning draw, which is quite encouraging, to
say the least.

proved exciting enough to hold the attention
OF the people. Professor Tanning vacation
did not destroy his effectiveness in the box.
de kept the hits well scattered and struck
out ten batsmen. Harper twirled for the
other side and pitched his usual game:
Both teams put no good fielding game, and
after the ninth inning the play settled
down to question of science
The Dukes scored their first tally in the
second and Frisco followed with it's initial
run in the third. Then came long row OF
binders until the ninth, when each side in
creased its string one run.
Two more innings were played without
results and the twelfth was started. but

Mr. Harvey was very interested specta-

remains of Mrs. Felicia Spiez of 10 Sonora
place, who died Tuesday afternoon at the
Receiving Hospital. She was riding upon a
Preside and Ferries car Monday afternoon,
and, while fondling her dog. slipped from
her seat and fell to the ground. Her skull
was fractured and she was taken to the hos
pital, where she died. The Coroner's jury
found that Mrs. Spiez's death was acciden-
tai. They said that 1t was caused by her
own carelessness and exonerated the grip
man and conductor of the car of all blame.

William f. Obermeyer, a saloon-keeper
at 75S Bryant street, who has been one OF

dead In a cardroom at the rear of his saloon,
having killed himself by gas asphyxiatlon.
Obermeyer lived at 201S Mission street.
He left home Tuesday morning in appar-
emily good spirits. His last words to his
wife were that he would be at home be-
tween u and O'Clock Wednesday morning:
Mrs. Obermeyer has been in the habit Oh
taking her husbands dinner to him every
day between and o'clock. Yesterday
she went TO the saloon shortly before .
o'clock and found it closed. She supposed
that her husband was absent on business
and returned home.
When Obermeyer failed to come home
yesterday morning his wife became alarmed
and, going to her father, Jacob Beck, she
got him to accompany her TO the saloon;
Finding the saloon still locked, Beck ana
Mrs. Obermeyer forced an entrance. They
found the saloon filled with gas. Opening
the door of the small cardroom in the rear
of the place Obermever was found sitting
in a chair dead. He had initiated johnson,

There is no question but that the suicide
was deliberately planned. The deceased
