THE GOVERNOR OF NORTH
CAROLINA.

At the Press Banquet in Charlotte
July 18th, Mr.. w. w. McDairmio
responded to the toast "The Governor
of North Carolina He spoke as
follows paying merited tribute to
Hon. Thomas NJ. Holt, our presen,
able and efficient chief executive:
Mr.. CHAIRMAN:-The mention OF
the distinguished gentleman now oc-
cupying the gubernatorial chair is an
eloquent response to the toast am
called upon to reply to.
Memory, Mr.. Chairman, goes back
to the time when the silver-tongued
Fowle was suddenly stricken down by
the "Silent Reaper" and for mo-
ment the Ship of State was without a
pilot and but for a moment, for Thos.
M. Holt, lieutenant-governor, placed
his hand on the helm, and she glided
into the calm waters of peace and
prosperity.
Untried in the arts of craftsmanship,
his fellow citizens soon realized his
patriotic purpose to subserve the best
interest of his native State.
Sir, his administration is 4 correct
delneation Of the plain, practical
character of the man. AS a farmer
and manufacturer, he has been emil
nently successful, and because of his
intense practial energy and persever-
ance. Therefore, he was enabled to
see clearly the wants and necessities of
his fellow-cit;zens, and with spirit of
true loyalty to them, as their chief, he
boldly, honestly and courageously |
endeavored to alleviate their wants,
advance their material interests, add |
to their prosperity, and, sir, in my /
opinion, his simple, plain, honest ad-
ministration, his efforts, and his ex-
ample have all been a stimulus to
them.
He will be remembered as the gov
ernor who earnestly promoted the ag
ricultural and manufacturing interests
of the State, who by prccept and ex-
ample endeavored to make labor hon
orable, industry noble, integrity
sublime and success the sure reward to
the possessor of these virtues. Loving
his native State with true, unselhsh
devotion, he aided in every conceiva-
Bile way to upbuild and foster her ed
ucational interest, for he realized that
this was the only foundation upon
which to erect an imperishable temple
of glory, grandeur and prosperity, in
which the people of the State could
abide. In this we find no selfish pur-
pose, no idea of self-aggrandizement,
no vaunting ambition: but a patriotic
desire for North Carolina to occupy
and adorn the glorious station as
signed by nature in the sisterhood of
States.
All honor to the practical governor!
All honor to the patriotic North Caro-
linian, to the honest citizen, to the
Christian gentleman! All honor to
Thos. NJ. Holt!

If Third partyite expresses his
wish to save the State from Republican
domination he at once ,ses his in
fluence in Third party convention.
He is hissed and denounced as dis
loyal. Why? He prefers the rule Of
white men TO the rule Of negroes. For
this Third party convention openly
proclaims HIM as unworthy OF conf
dence. This is what the Third party
convention in this city, last Tuesday,
proclaimed and decided. Let the
people Of North Carolina make a note
of the fact. Let those who joined the
Third party from honest convictions
no longer allow themselves to be made
cats paw in the interest of Repub-
licans by such men as are now leading
that party. At once let them separate
themselves from an organization the
leaders of which have turned out to be
wool dyed Republicans, scratchers and
Office seekers The farmers OF the
State are not going to be led by any
such men.-State Chronicle.

THE WYANOKE'S MOVE,
CARGO.
1tComprises the Southern States
Exhibit at the Buffalo Fair,

| The New York IEorII publishes ti;
following:
| No vessel probably ever arrived i.
| New York with such novel cargo a
that carried by the Old Dominion
line steamer Wyanoke, which swun.
into her dock last evening. Their,
were all kinds of growing fruits, plant.
and trees, and a queer collection o
birds and animals. There were also
on board forty negroes who mad never
been North before.
The collection was in charge OF
| John I. Patrick and comprised in part
the exhibit of the Southern States fot
the Buffalo exposition, which OPEN
August II which has cost large
amount Of money and will cost much
more, is due to the enterprise of the
immigration Commissioners of North
Carolina and South Carolina, aided
by the railroads.
The growing products have been
transported in immense boxes and are
fourishing in their native soil. They
consist of cotton bushes, rice, pine
trees, bananas, figs, pine apples, sugar
cane and cocoa nuts. All arrived in
fine condition and Mr.. Patrick said
there was no doubt that they would
flourish, a: least until the Exposition
was over.
All the wild animals and the prin-
cipal birds are included in the col
lection. There are fifty alligators
ranging all the way from few inches
in length up to fifteen feet. A tenn
porary tank had been provided for
them in the hold of the Wyanoke.
Between decks there where enough
birds and animals to stock first class
menagerie. There were fifty pos
sums, bakers dozen of 'coons, four
foxes, and half hundred squirrels of
various kinds, couple of deer and a
solitary black bear. Accompanying
the deer was as pretty little fawn as
was ever born. 1t was only two
months old and literally covered with
dark spots, which in little while
will entirely disappear.
Thore was also good sized aviary
aboard the steamer, the principal
features being large number of
Carolina mocking birds and two
specimens Of the American
eagle.
The colored people are typical
colored laborers of the South. Whole
families, including grand children,
were represented, and their songs on
the boat when tied up might have
been heard across the river in Jersey.
Mr.. Patrick has secured over six
acres of floor space tor the States he
represents, and three acres will be
devoted entirely to the growing pro-
ducts of the South. There will be
large cotton field, section of a sugar
cane plantation, a section of pine
woods in which turpentine is made,
and figs, bananas, cocoa nuts, and
other fruits will be growing just as
hey do down South. Each stage of
cotton growing will be represented,
In the pine forest Of growing trees
still will make turpentne |
rom the sap of the trees, and tar
siln will manufacture tar The ex-
libits will be looked after by the
>olored folks who will be in regular
Southern field costume and will! sing |
southern field songs as they work.

TIE SOMA ! In the Aryan religion
PLANT. the chief offering to the
gods was the fomented juice of the
Soma or Moon plant, which, being a
strong drink, gave new excitement to
those who partook of it, and was be-
lieved to impart power to the gods. 1t
was believed, moreover, that it wrought
miracles, and for the reason, perhaps,
became the chief god of the Hindus.
In vedic hymn the worshiper says:
"Wc've quafted the Soma bright,
And are immortal grown;
We've entered into light,
And all the gods have known.
What mortal now can harm,
Or foeman vex US more?
Through thee beyond alarm,
Immortal God we soar"
No such power as that is attributed
to any plant at the present time, and
yet many of the cures performed by
5. S. s., a purely vegetable remedy,
seem almost TO border on the miracu-
lous In contagious blood poison
scrofula, skin diseases, some forms ot
cancer, etc, it is the remedy par ec
| cellence.

A Mr.. Logge of New Brunswick has es-
tablishod a new branch of business at Island
Pond, Vt, viz that Of canning blusberries
He expects to ship about thirty carloads of
canned blueberries this season, and will
probably largely increase his shipments in
future years. The establis hment of this
business on this side of the Canada line is
one of the results Of the Mckinley tariff
Tbs Essex County Herald says Of it;
man is canning large quantity Of
b!ueberries and hiring a large number OF
men In the enterprise. His raw material ia
in Canada. He can hire his men cheaper
there. The advantages Of doing his work
there are greater than here. But
the duty on his manufactured article in
duces him to come this side the line. This
creates new enterprise in our midst. 1t
adds so much to the value OF this country,
especially to this locality in which it is
operated. In this benefit the farmer shares
1t creates greater demand for labor and
that especially benefits the laborer, while IL
only affects the farmer in that slight de-
gree which comes from change in the
ratio of skilled to farm labor IL that dis
tinction may be permitted, and this Is
much more than overcome by increased de-
mand for his products right at his door.
The benefits OF home market immediately
touch him. Without the protective tariff
the country would lose not only the revenue
