LEGISLATIVE FIGHT.

The Legislative fight on the nortl,
side OF the river has developed, as
usual, into 4 fight between the two
rings. These factions are bound to
elect their men or "bust'' the party.
1t Is known fact that no one need
run for an office unless he belongs to
one OF these rings, and in most ms
tances their candidates are men who
can be used in more ways than one,
and often against the peoples inter-
estS as well as the principles of the
Democratic party.
Personally we have nothing against
either of the Bloom candidates for the
legislature, but we do decidedly OBJ
ject to this boss rule. This factional
fighting is getting worse each year,
and is always so arranged that a man
who will not stoop to ring rule is
''trozen out" by being told that he is
mot in it." We think this .eating
crow, or dog" at every primary
eiectioh is ABOUT played out.
Bloom, We think, is not entitled to
all the offices. They have the Sena-
tor, and to give them a member every
time is giving the lions share and
putting too much power in the wrong
place. But, happily, there is a good
chance now of defeating these rings
by voting for R. F. Kshinka, of Briar-
creek, gentleman of ability and in
tegrlty, and who is abundantly able
to discharge the duties of that Office.
MIR. Kshinka has proven by the de.
termined stand he took for Pattison
when delegate to the Scranton con-
ventlon that he is man who ,,M
represent the wishes of the people re-
gardless of bulldozing or Doodle, and
since he is outside of these rings we
think every democrat who is in favor
Of throwing these factional fights of
the Bloom rings overheard should
give Mr.. Kshinka his support. He
would be credit to the party and a
faithful servant at Harrisburg Will
YOU help accomplish thisl
ANTI-RING.

WORLDS FAIR NOT BANKRUPT.

Some ignorant or malicious person
started the report that the Worlds
Fair is bankrupt that it had drawn its
last cent and used its last postage
stamp. And this false report has been
published in hundreds and probably
thousands of newspapers. 1t is still
spreading, and naturally is doing the
Fair harm The fact is that the Expo
sitlon has now Sc, 500, 900 cash in bank
and about a million more in sight. 1t
has not had, at any time for year and
a half, less than million dollars to its
credit in cash, and has had as much
as $S,ooo,ooo at ore time. During
the last six months the money has nee
essarily been expended rapidly for
constructing the great Exposition build.
ings. Abou. three-quarters Of a mil
lion month has been paid out for
this purpose. A like expenditure will
be necessary for several months to
come, and more money will be needed
by October. The bulk Of the receipts
Of the Fair from admissions, etc, will
not begin to come in, of course, until
the Fair opens. 1t is in order to tide
the enterprise over until that time that
the Government has been asked to ad-
vance $4,000, 900. The most conserv.
ative estimate Of the Fairs receipts
and expenditures places the former
about $4,000, 900 in excess of the lat
ter. There need be not the slightest
fear of the Fair being bankrupt, or
even Of its becoming 'hard up" if the
Government gives tn. aid which has
been asked and which is confidently
expected. Should such aid not be Civ
en-, the public can rest assured that
Chicago itself, though it has raised al
most II, 900, 900 and ought not to be
expected to do more, and will put its
hand deeper into its pocket and will
provide enough money to carry the
FAIR through to the grand success
which it is determined it shall be and
which it certainly will be.
The Fair is not bankrupt and will
not be bankrupt. The only founda-
tion for the injurious report referred to
IS the fact that the National Commits
sion, or supervising body, has expend-
ed all of the money which the govern
ment appropriated for its expenses for
the current year. That body does not
provide the money for constructing the
buildings, gathering the exhibits, or
otherwise putting the Fair in complete
condition for the inspection of the
public. This is done by the Worlds
Columbian Exposition" or local Chi
cago corporation. The Fair will be
dedicated and open on time, and all
bills will be paid.

AN ERROR CORRECTED.

As Mr.. Kshinka is unable to see
every voter in the county on account
OF his farm duties, an impression
prevails, which is much famed by
over-lealous Office seekers and their
friends, that he is a foreigner from
Poland. This is very wrong. He
was borne in our neighboring
county of Sullivan, his father being a
native of Berlin, Germany, where
this family resided for generations.

ARDEN, n. c.. October, 1892.
October is the choicest month in the
year in these parts. Geraniums and ham
should now be potted for winter. The
farmer now looks over his cows and Sc
lects the milk cows from the others be-
cause they are more apt TO produce milk.
Corn should be housed and blowing
done. Here we have light, calcareous
soil, which is soothing 10 the bare feet
of the peasant, and sometimes produces
a large green worm called the tobacco
worm.
He is not so plentiful In this State as
formerly, having gone farther South,
where he can get his tobacco cheaper.
Here, coo, he found a good deal OF COM
petition. The tobacco worm has no
other occupation on earth than to use
tobacco. Here he found that others
had 4lready entered the field before
him and undertaken to suOsist entirely
upon tobacco and rest. Therefore the
tobacco worm is less plentiful now In
North Carolina than formerly. Tobacco
is also 25 per cent. less in quantity here
this fall than formerly, but OF good
quality. The brightest and most fra
grant tobacco for smoking Is grown IN
this State. 1t smells as sweet as clover
and is not injurious TO health.
Snuff is not grown here, and so some
times when there is blockade or wash
out on the railroad snuff cannot be read

great deal Of suffering. Nobody nose
how much there is.
Snuff is not administered up the nose
here, however, among those who use 1t,
but is kept in neat little bonbonniere,
or gourd, and small wooden stick
made of birch, chewed into a brush at
one end, is ever and anon dipped into
the snuff and then chewed thoroughly

hers;f. but gives herself up fully and
entirely, as true artist, forgetting all
else when face TO face with the public.
Was the evening of yesterday more
fatiguing than usual? l know not, but
we find her to-day, pretty as always,
but very pale, stretched on her antique
gilded "chaise lounge" in the midst OF a
pile of downy, d9licately tinted SIX
cushions. This little privileged corner
Is shaded by large palm tree and sur
rounded by sweet little embroidered
silk screen; by the side Of her sofa
is a bookstand, covered with pamphlets
and new books, a little whatnot,
laden with the thousand charming
nothings, trihes having each its history
and endeared to one because each con-
tains some tiny portion OF ones own
existence. The blinds are lowered, and
the sun, filterlng through and mixing
with their rose-colored tints, envelops
this captivating corner with luminous
shade, giving rainbow colors to the
crystal drops Of the listers, flashes OF
gold to the cut-glass goblets and Dres-
den china, throws fantastic shades on
the weIl-rounded, fat Japanese vases,
on the outstretched necks Of the great
golden ibis and softens and idealizes the
adorable little statuetees OF Tanagra,
snugly sheltered in their glass cases.
All is lovely, delicate, exquisite In
this salon, entirely Louis XVI; every
thing gives out a rich perfume; the
thousand cushions of every shade heaped
M on the divans, the fine old lace COW
ers on the backs and arms of easy chairs,
the fine piece OF wadded old damask
covering the grand piano, the flower
stands filled with lilac, roses and lily-of-
the-valley; evidences OF the triumps
of the eve. She is reading, for this
charming woman has the good taste TO
interest herself in multitude OF things
which are not part OF her vocation. No
one converses better than she, with
more finesse, tact and intelligence, OF
the last article of NJ. de Vogue in the
Revue des Deux MOndes, OF the last
book Of Mons. PaleOlcgue on Alfred de
Vigny, or again OF the discourse OF
Pierre Lott on his reception. There
fore many come to chat with her,
and not only they come-they come
again.
This evening she is not playing. She
expects few friends 10 dinner-two or
three only-and to receive them has
put on this pretty undress OF loose,
flowing, soft silk, doubtless an emana-
tinn Of Doucet. The long white Prin-
cess robe is trimmed with ostrich feath-
ers, forming round the throat thick,
snowy ruch, from which energies the
small head, delicate, but energetic,

piercing light eyes. The wide, open
sleeves, reaching almost TO the hem OF

" successful,

read of a windmill in Faversham
that in ten weeks raised 21,000,0 600 gal
Ions Of water from depth of 100 feet,
thus saving 100 tons of coal, or say $3.50.
In fifty-two weeks this windmill would
have saved $3.50. This, with what
vegetables we can raise here, would al
mos6 run our house. BY taking a
boarder or two one could retire from
active work and thus avoid attracting
unpleasant comment.
The post windmill was the earliest
wind engine that had to be pulled about
to face the wind. 1t was succeeded by
the smock or frock mill which consisted
of stationary tower and movable gear
ing for the miller. The American wind
mill is said to be the best made, and
even mine, am sure, would work If air
couli be supplied. An asphyxiated
windmill is sad sight.
For finding the horsepower OF wind
mills give the following rule. 1t is
for the old mill with sales, but might be
fixed up to apply to American mills:
Let ~ equal number Of sails.
Let A equal area of each sail In square
feet.
Let V equal velocity of wind in feet
per second.
Then the horsepower OF the mill is:
