HOW TO GET RICH.

The Constitution has great many
novel inquiries. Many we do not
notice because we haven't time, and
they are frequently frivolous. But
here is one that has merit in it. A
young man writes us to know how to
become rich. The formula is simple
and certain, we give it. Save all of
your income; don't invest your saw
ings in anything that will build up the
country, but lend it at the highest rate
of interest you can obtain; grind the
needy whenever occasion offers never
make a donation to anything; never
be hoSpitable; always remember that a
fat kitchen makes lean purse never
have any politics or religion. Observe
these rules strictly, and if you live
anything like the allotted time for man
to live you will be rich man, and
whenever you die everybody. includ-
ing your heirs, will be glad of it.

40 TINE FOR REORGANIZATION.

Democrats may have some very in
tense convictions regarding their re-
cent defeat and its causes, but it is not
necessary to air harsh opinions.
Silence is sometimes golden, and a
clamor of tongues after the battle is
over cannot change the result. We do
not want any crying over spilled milk
no grumbling, growing and COM
planning. 1t takes something besides
talk to mend broken bones.
Some Democrats may think that
certain other Democrats have blum
dered, but it will do no good to
constantly tell them 50. We should
give our brethren who hold different
views credit for loyalty and sincerity,
and instead Of exciting their resent
ment by ill-timed lectures, we should
urge the necessity of getting together
on the Chicago platform.
This is an off year and we can we'll
afford to lose several States if we profit
by the lesson Of the defeat and make
it stepping stone to victory next
year. Democrats will now take
counsel of their second sober thought,
and the central idea in their minds
will be the reflection that the financial
and tariff pledges of the Chicago plat
form caused the overwhelming triumph
of the Democracy in 1892. These
promises won the support OF the masses,
secured their ratification of the plat
Iorm, and it is impossible to doubt
hat our hopes of future success are
bound up in the pledges which have
heln SO heartily endorsed by the
people. There is danger in every STEP
that leads us away from the platform
and safety in every effort that we make
to carry it into effect.
We believe that Democrats of every
shade of belief will come to this con
elusion, and we expect to see them
compromising their differences anc
aOlldifying their ranks. Let US have
no reCrlmlnatiOn-nO reprOofs. The
thing to do now is to plant ourselve:
squarely on the platform and aid tht
President and congress in the work o
redecming the pledges OF the party

Resolutions.

At a meeting OF the Executive Com
mittee of the Roanoke & Tar River Agri-
cultural Society, held in Weldon, the
following resolutions were adopted, as
published in the Roanoke Neus last week ::
WHEREAS, it has pleased the Great
Creator, to remove from our Society, our
fellow members, Richard II. Smith, W.
II. Shields, H. J. Pope and W. W. Hall,
who since the organization OF our Asso-
citation have been its most Jealous and
faithful workers, now, therefore,
ResoIved, L. That while we bow to the
decree, yet we appreciate the fullness OF
the loss we have sustained.
=. That our community has deeply
felt the bereayements.
3. That our Society will cherish their
memory; and in emulating their virtues
will set examples worthy to be followed
+. That these resolutions be epread
upon the minutes of our Society.
r. II. Smith, Esq, was the first presi-
dent of our Society, at its organization
24 years ago, and from then on to the
end, he labored, at all times, for its
success, and in thus laboring he served
the best material interest of our people,
Mr.. Smith came down from a by gone
generatioa, representing and typifying
the highest civilization OF the anti
bellum days. And in his day, his walk
in life, was filled with charitable deeds,
and kindly feelings to friends and
neighbors.
w. H. Shields was our first Vice -Presi-
dent and held this position to the date of
his death. In doing all things for our
organization Capt. Shields was untring,
and by works and example helped to
make it a success. To him our annual
reunions were days of pleasure. To each
and all he was genial and pleasant,
making his duties in his various depart
ments a pleasure to all having associa-
ton with him.
Mr.. Pope was one of our ice-Presi-
dents from 1869; and his especial de-
partment was always the special pleasure
Of visitors. He was the soul of honor
No man who knew him ever asked
further evidence of any fact than his
statement that twas so. In his depart
ment, that of racing, etc, no Jockey
ventured upon any sharp practice His
stern repudiation Of trickery, awed this;
usually lawless class, into prOpriety. 1t
Will be long before his place can be
supplied. His death was calamity to
thecommunity and county alike.
Mr.. Hall was for many years the Sec
retary of the Society and gave to its ad-
vancement his highest energies Genial,
affable, courteous to all, he was especially
fitted for the position which he so faith
fully filled, and all who come in contact
with him were made to feel an increased
interest in the exhibitions which have so
long been looked for annual as coming
together of Or people He was atten-
tive in the discharge of his duties,
accurate in detail, painstaking, and he
brought to his work an earnestness
which always left its impress. His life
should be emulated and his death deeply
deplored

The following is the Thanksgiving
proclamation issued by Gov. Carr:
At the close Of another year it is
meet and proper that SIS a State and
nation we should give thanks to the
Author Of every good and perfect gift
for the many blessings vouchsafed to
us. The people Of North Carolina
have much for which to be thankful.
The ravages of the storm, the blight Of
disease and the serious ills which have
befallen some other States God in His
mercy has spared US. Our lands have
responded to our labors, and although
not as abundantly as heretofore, still
we have sufficient to preserve us from
want and suffering.
In compliance, therefore, with the
time hOnored and beautiful Christian
custom Of our Commonwealth, and in
conformity with the recommendation
of the President Of the United States.
l. Elias Carr, Governor of the State of
North Carolina, do appoint Thursday,
the thirtieth day of November. 1898,

praise to God. I earnestly request
the people of the State to observe this
day in suitable manner. laying aside.
as far as possible, their secular pur-
suits. and to assemble in their usual
places of worship and with thankful
hearts give praise and thanksgiving.
And that every heart may rejoice, let
us remember with that charity which
is twice blessed the poor and afflicted,
the widow and the orphan, the unfort-
unate inmates of our charitable insti-
tutions, and be especially mindful of
our fast aging heroes at their own fire
sides and in the Soldiers Home.
Given under my hand and the Great
Seal Of the State Of North Carolina, at
the city of Raleigh. this Sth day of
November, in the year of our Lord
one thousand eight hundred and ninety
three, and in the one hundred and
eighteenth year Of our American In-
dependence. ELIAS CARR.

The victories won by the Republi-
can party on Tuesday last were simply
the result of great big senseless
scare. With a little time for rehec-
tion a majority of those who contri-
buted to said victories, will see the
bugaboo that fooled them in its true
light, and be ashamed of themselves.
Regarded from National standpoint,
the Republican victory is a compara-
lively barren one. The Democratic
party has still three year grip on the

Some of the most ntolerant of Mr..
Cleveland's supporters during the
campaign in which he was nominated
now say that he is bulldosing the
Democratic party and causing it to
split on the money question, and that
his course is not consistent with his
acceptance of the Chicago platform.
They are repudating their leader too
soon. Wait, and give him chance
to show his esteem for silver money.
Mr.. Cleveland's patriotism is too wide
and deep to be disCredited on account
of differences about currency.-Norfolk

Fall Fashions for Ladies. Sea-
son 1898,


son 1898.
The latest fashion news from Paris all
agree in saying that the "Godets'' styles
of circular drapery, in new and endless
variations, will be most extensively worn
this season. Skirts, capes, jackets and
collars all partake of this tendency.
The overskirt is meeting, thus far,
with very little favor, and Partisan
ladies being adverse to it, it is only seen
on rare occasions.
The old time paner is revived for GER
| tain full dress tOilettes.
The round waist of the Spring and
Summer is still a favorite, with the ad-
| ditiOn of circular, or "Godets" hip cross
! skirts, in varied designs.
| These items of news are extracted from
the Mcdowell fashion journals, and will
undoubtedly be of interest to our fair
readers, for the aim of these handsome
Partisan publications is to always pre-
sent to their customers the only correct
and refined styles adopted by the gentle

to be the fountain head of fashions

Lines by Edward Gillian.

Raleigh News -Observer-C Chronicle
The grief that las been SO generally felt
at the death of the beloved wife of Mr..
in some verses penned by Mr.. Edward
Gillian, of the Reidsville Rerie,o, which
we have the privilege of publishing. The
death was very sad one. The tenderness
of her relations at home and the bright
promise of realization of cherished hopes
made life very dear to the young and
loving spirit that has been taken from her
sorrowing household, and the bereavement
of MI Caldwell is so complete as to evoke
among his friends profound sympathy.
The following touching lines by Mr.. Gill
liam in some measure express the general
feeling:
BEREAvED.
TO JOSEPH P. CALDWELL ON THE DEATH
OF HIS WIFE.
All, the life cord is broken ere the last
words are spoken,
And the spirit is flown like story un-
told
The sweet harp was scarce strung and the
song is unSung.
On her pale lips has perished the smile
that was cherished;
The dread Angel of Death has entered
the fold
And his changes are rung Oh the old and
the young.
With the wings of the morning and giving
no warning,
The soul SO beloved flew ever away;
n OF the one at her bed with the tears yet
unshed
/ Felt the young life SO splendid was al
most then ended,
| AS the Angel came down near the close Of
the day,
she is dead!"
His great loss, who can share it? God
help him to bear it;
| How deep is the shadow can any one tell?
She who walked by his side, his compan-
| ion, his bride,
In her last sleep is sleeping and her last
VOW is keeping,
Called home by the Father who doeth all
Look to Him as your guide in whatever
| betide.

Or the thirteen States in which
elections were held last week the Dem
ocrats were triumphant in only three,
Virginia, Maryland and Kentucky.
New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts
and Iowa, (Democratic) went Kepub-
lican, while Ohio and the other Re
publican States were held with firm
hand and showed large Republican
gains. In Kansas, Nebraska and
Colorado the Populi5ts have a
majority. Altogether it was not a
good day for the Democracy, but
perhaps the result has no special signill-
canoe outside of local politics.

Leo's Mantle May Fall to Cardinal
Gibbons of Baltimore.
LONDON, April ia dispatch from
Rome, emanating from high authority,
states the Italian Government intends,
upon the occasion of the next Papal con-
clave, to issue brochure in which it will
declare the next Pope ought to overthrow
the democratic policy established by the
present Pope and become reconciled with
the Quirinal. The work, it is said, will
also declare Pope Leo's successor should
favor an alliance between Germany, Aus
tria and Italy. The dispatch adds that in
official circles it is greatly feared Pope
Leo's successor will be foreigner. The
liberals especially dread the election of
Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore. The
officials at the Vatican laugh at the idea
of the proposed brochure having any
effect. They smile, also, at other attempts
the Italian Government has made or NAV
attempt to make change in the Pope's
policy. Ecclesiastical authorities believe
the democratic policy ofthe Pope has OBJ
tanned such a firm hold upon the minds
of the people that it will become tradi-
tional, and other Popes will live up to it.
STUDY OF THE SCRIPTURES.
ROME, April ll.-Pope Leo has COM
pleted an examination of the question of
The study of the Scriptures, he having de-
voted inquiry especially to the diverse
opinions of savants on great biblical
questions. His Holiness will proceed To
indite letter to the bishops. requesting
them to enjoin upon their hocks a more
profound study of the Scriptures, and a
larger place in the schools for the study
and critical explanation of hermeneu-
tics. The Pope urges the necessity OF
keeping in the track of modern progress
and discovery, in order to adapt Cathon-
cisn to the needs of the day.
