PRESIDENT aLF a. THOMPSON AT
NEW BERNE.

Mr. Alf A. Thompson, President
of the North Carolina Business
Mems Association, returned yester-
day from New Berne where he ad-
dressed the editors on behalf of the
Association, making valuable sug-
gestions which were most favorabiy
received, and also read letter from
Gov. Carr. After MIR. Thompson
concluded his address committee
of three editors was appointed as
follows: Messrs. Lambe, Kernodle
and London nd;:made report which
was adopted and which was sub
stantially as follows: First, that all
towns throughout the State be en-
couraged to form Business Associa-
tions looking to local development,
and that they connect themselves
with the State Association.
Second, that they extend every
assistance possible to Governor Carr
in securing the publication of his
letter, which is to consist of six
thousand words, setting forth the
material resources of the State.
This letter is to be published in
pamphlet form, with letters from
the Governors of the other South

The Savannah Morning News yer

THE Savannah Morning News very
pertinently says: The Republican
party is remiss in It's duty toward
those colored squetters at James
City, n. G.. They were settled upon
land belonging to somebody else
by federal army officers who told
them the land was to become their
own. They were innocent enough
TO believe the army owned the earth
and could spportlon it at pleasure,
and they looked to the Republican
party TO see that their rights of
ownership were rot encroached
upon atterward. And the party
has always taught them to regard
it as their protector. Now the
proper thing for the Republican
party to do, inasmuch as the
courts have decided that the
sqratter5 ere trespassers and
must be removed, is to buy the
Land IN question aud make it 8
present to the squatters But tha,
the party will not do. 1t will per.
NIT its James City charges to suffer
disappointments similar to those
that fell to the lot of the black,
who were promised forty acres anc
mule during the reconstruction
era
This is we'll put in, and it Nigh
be added that the Republican part,
has had thirty years in which t.
rectify the imposition practicec
upon the negroes by supposed Fed
eral authority. If the Republican
party had done this it would hav
saved the State of North Carolin
the trouble of having to order on
q whole regiment of troops to main
tain the rights of one of its citizens
and would at the same time hav
done the square thing by the unto,
tunate negroes.

MANY do not understand why it
is that if the james City dispute
has been settled amicably the troops
are not ordered away. 1t is neces-
sary that the papers setting forth
fully the terms of lease be drawn
up in legal form, signed, sealed and
duly filed This is necessary to the
full execution of the law, and that
is what Governor Carr ordered the
troops out for. 1t is a voluminous
task, and cannot be completed in
an hour, nor in twenty-four hours.
That business is now in progress as
rapidly as possible, and TIL it is
fully closed the troops cannot be
ordered home.

Many interests would have been in

necessary to take peremptory steps,
but the law has been carried out to

to satisfy all parties concerned. 1t
appears that the matter has been

A North CarOIinian Called to Georeia

A North Carolinian Called to Georgia
Charlotte Observer
The Atlanta Constitution of yes
terday says that Gov. Northern, of
Georgia, has appointed ". S. Yates,
of North Carolina, geologist of that
State, and that he was notified of
the appointment and accepted by
wire. The Constitution adds:
Professor Yates is well known
scientist and his reputation as a
geologlst is all that could be asked
to qualify him for the position to
which the Governor Of Georgia has
appointed him.
He has been out of college about
ten years and has devoted himself
to the sciences ever since he left his
University, He comes with the
highest recommendations from the
New Jersey College of Sciences, and
also from the Smithsonian Institute
with which he has been connected
for several years as o teacher OF
geological science.
He graduated in 1878, but ha:
| been hard student of the sciences
| much Of the time since then. II
1881 he WAS made assistant scien
tist in the department of mineral,
and economic geology in the United
States National Museum and {
month afterwards was placed il
charge Of the mineral collection O
the departlaent Since the deatl
OF the curator he has had immediat,
charge of the department., and hi
work has been such as las brough
him in close study with all manne,
OF minerals, ores, gems and semi
precious stones. He is thorou 81
scientist and practical geologist
The Constitution spells the nam.
as above, but correctly spelled it il
Yeates. The gentleman in ques
tion is son of the late Hon. Jess,

its connection with this scheme is
what led the engineer Meluikoff to
inquire into the history OF the old
canal and attempt to explore it's
wonders. It is subject Of COM
ment that historians have not STUN
bled upon an object Of such great
interest before this day. It forms
an important addition to the his
tory of canals, which were believed
to have come into use about the be-
ginning OF the Christian era, al
though canals for irrigation, and
perhaps for other uses, existed in
China and Egypt before that day
The location has been an impor-
tant one in all the many wars that
have been waged in the Crimea at
intervals for centuries. AS late as
It'll the old fortresses were taken
from Turkey by the Russians, but
returned IN l775, when peace was
concluded. They had become 80
familiar to those acquainted with
the country that no one had an idea
OF their high antiquity.
Melnikoff writes in French and
conveys vivid description of the
ancient ruins. He has just written
a pamphlet, which is fresh from the
press, and this contains in Russian
a full account of all that is known
and all that has been said about 9
canal in the centuries since its Gu
struction. It also contains dag .us
and illustrations of the canal as it
! now appears.

PROHIBITION AND LICENSE IN
MASSA SACHUSEITS.

Last week large number Of Massa-
chusetts cities voted on the question
OF license and no-license. The follow
ing from the Journals report of the
state of affairs in two prominent
places teaches lesson that Vermont
people might well learn:
SALEM, May 1. To day was virtual
ly the beginning Of the year of no
license, although the local dealers
closed their doors to the public at II
O'Clock sharp Saturday night. But
two drunks we're arrested yesterday
and none to-day.
The general supposition was that
the dealers would give away to-day
all the beer they had left over and
that all the FOUNDERS would be found
drunk. Not drop was given up, how
ever. the dealers preferring to let the
ardent flow unmolested into the sew
ers. The course they pursued was a
bitter disappointment to those ex-
pecting free beer.

looms III UH0 Guy are 1ocdOeu, ,Hdu d uo-
serted appearance. 1t was very quiet,
and scarcely person was noticed
lounging about the corners as has
been the custom ever since license has
been in vogue.
The general public is now anxiously
waiting to see if the authorities can
and will prevent the illegal sales that
viii take place. The officials say they
Will stop the business and are fully
equipped to fight even those parties
who will sell from the pocket. A can

finds all unanimous in the approval of

THAT PRESS EXCURSION.

On account of some severe UnlngS
that have been said of late in certain
places in regard to that Sunday
Press Excursion,u so called, we give
some facts that may, perhaps, be OF
interest, and relieve it of some of the
severest criticisms that have been
made upon it. The Press Association
of the state has an annual meeting,
and, usually, an excursion OF two or
three days length, which more often
than otherwise extends beyond the
confines of the state. An excursion
to Niagara Falls had been contemplate
ed. but had never been carried out.
After the location of the Worlds Fair
at Chicago, it was suggested that the
trip might embrace the Fair and the
Falls. The Association was called to
meet at Montpelier some months since
and there were present quite large
number of members. The matter was
pretty thoroughly talked up. Gov.
Fuller was present and suggested that
the trip be made early in May, mas
much as it would be necessary to
'sdedicate'' the Vermont building the
first of that month, and soon after the
opening of the exhibition. 1t is stated
by some that the 9Th day Of May was
suggested as the date on which the
party should leave the state. We do
not remember that the day of starting
was named. If so, it was not under
stood that the start was to be made
on Saturday, and the proposed stop OF
several hours at Niagara Falls was to
occur on Sunday. Had that been un-
derstood we are sure that objection
would have been made then and there.
A committee was selected to go to
Chicago and make the arrangements
there, and to procure Wagner train
to take the party out and back. In
due time the arrangements were per-
fected. An elegant train, cheap fare
and pleasant home in the Christian
EndeaVor Hotel were arranged for,
and a large and respectable party was
enrolled for the trip. So far every
thing had been perfectly satisfactory.
A circular of information was issued,
and for the first time it came to be
discovered that the contemplated trip
involved two Sundays for travelling,
and one for sight seeing at Niagara.
Protest was made at once against the
Sunday part of the arrangement, some
positively refusing to go on this ac-
count. The committee at once set
about making change if possible in
the dates, but they had made and
signed contracts with the car compa-
nies, the hotels and the Fair people,
and found they could not make the
change without serious pccuniary loss.
They did, however, plan a second
excursion, which involved no Sunday
travelling.
In what the MONITOR has said in re-
gard to this thing,we have not intend
ed to intimate that the Association, or
even the committee Of arrangements
is made up of a set of Goddess men, or
of Sabbath breakers. We have stated
that they made a great mistake in the
matter, which we regretted. This is
not written to apologize for anybody,
or to accuse anybody, but to give the
facts as we understand them.
