the first hour. The market was almost at a

weakened for the most part aud by II o'clock
values had declined 1s@lh per cent. Rock
Island recovered q frac ion IN the second hour
and Gas recovered per cent Aside from these
two no change Of moment from the figures at
the end OF the first hour occurred. The market
was decidedly more active during the last half
of the day. Bears made frequent raids on the
market, hammering the leaders and circulating
reports of large gold engagements for to-
morrow's steamers They kept prices on the
downward grade all day by these tactics, not
Withstanding the fact that the only engage
ment of gold known to have been made for
shipment by to-morrow's steamers was some
5000, 600, which is to be shipped by LaZaFd

strength, but these eventually weakened with
the remainder of the list, aud the whole market
closed weak. Reading was of the weak
features, closing a a decline of 16s per cent
Closing prices were 1sA2 per cent below

WINSTON, Dec. I'D. Nj. Furches, late
republican candidate for governor, comes
out in card in the Winston Republican

the republican defeat at the last election
in North Carolina Among other things
he says: "The true theory OF the repub
lican defeat was fraud. There was no
limit to this in the large negro counties

Halifax since the election, saying if the
election had been fair and fairly counted

in that county alone and it was as bad in
Edgecombe, New Hanover and other

INVESTIGATING RAuM.
Committee Appointed to Look After
the Commissioner of Pensions.

Committee Appointed to Look After
the Commissioners of Pensions.
A committee of the house has been
appointed for the purpose of investi-
eating Mr.. Raum. There is little doubt
as to the need of such investigation.
but the committee should be allowed
to extend its inquiries beyond the
merely personal transactions of the
pension commissioner. The private
speculations of Raum have little to do
with the great scandals that have made
his administration notorious save as
they may lead to conclusions as to
Raum's relations with those known in
Washington as members of the pension
ring. What enormous profits these
pension sharks have made within a
few years is common talk at the CAPT
tai If the house committee shall be
able to lay bare even a moiety of such
frauds it will have performed a great
service to the country. When it is un-
derstood that the number of pension
ers exceeds 100000, and that this is to
be increased to more than a round mil
lion within the year, it will be seen
that something must be rotten in Den
mark. A quarter of century after
the close of the war the pension list is
to exceed in numbers the roll of the
federal army at any one time. The
bare statement is proof of frauds that
are disgraceful to honest pensioners
and wickedly burdensome to the peo-
pie.
The committee will discover in the
course of their work that many vet
Grams in Washington and throughout
the country will aid them in uncover
ing some of the schemes by which the
pension Office has been disgraced.
There is an organization of old veter-
ans at Washington whose members are
earnest in their determination to stop
pension frauds before they shall have
destroyed the entire system. To these
old soldiers the committee may appeal
with certainty of valuable assistance.

Fortunately for tax-ridden peo-
pie the democratic majority in the

Cultivation of Forests.

A forest is like any other crop in its
growth and development After ii
reaches maturity it begins to decay,
and If not interferred with, growth and
decay will just about balance each
other, and no progress or increase OF
crop can follow. The true way is to
cut the timber as fast as IL is fit, thin
ming exactly the right distance apart
as may be, permitting the young tim.
Der to come as fast as the natural tim
Der is removed. 1t would take many
years to get forest in just the right
conditions; but when once fairly
started, no other known crop can be
made to yield so large profit Farm,
