WATCEFUL BOOMERS.
An Assoc alton To be Organized TO Prosscu
Fraudulent ''HomeseekerS.'

FraRdulenc '.EomessekerS.
Now that il is thoroughly understood
that the demand for homes in the Cicero
kee strip exceeds the supply no effort viii
be spared 70 see that no man can take, or
rather bold claim except those who are
entitled 20 it under the law. Az associa-
ton IS talked of whose mission IS 10 prose-
cute every man VINO enters upon land con-
trary to the spirit of the laws governing
the opening OF the Cherokee strip. No
man, it appears, who owns property 10 aoy
other state or territory to the extent Of
$4,000, or farm of 100 acres can take
claim in the Cherokee strip This being
irou-clad, it is said that many people are
GisUosIng of their property SO TO make
themselves poor enough 10 come under the
requirements of the law.
The association contemplated is for the
purpose OF watching these fellows and 30
fight their title 10 claims should they OBJ
tain any. The movement Is in its infancy
yet, but as it IS popular with the bona ide
hoIE eseekers, there is no doub5 bnt what it
will gather strength. i convention for
the purpose OF organizing the association
will probably be held at Caldwell early
next week 20 which delegates from every
boomer camp on the borders OF the Chero-
kee strip VIII be invited.

THE PRESIDENTS HEALTH.

The exaggerated and sensational
reports of President Cleveland's con-
dition have met emphatic denial
from his physician. The President
has been TIN ough very severe strain
during the past four months and
naturally he feels its effects, He is
suffering from rheumatism and is
sadly in need of rest, but there ap-
pears to be no ground whatever for
the report that his condition Is such
as to excite alarm.
The president has done sensis
BILE thing in taking a respite from
the heavy cares of his office. This
was his duty to the country and to
himself. A rest for the remainder of
this month will in all probability
put him into good condition and ems
able him to return quite we'll to
Washington in time for the extra
session.

World'r Fair.

A leading North Carolina jour
nalist writes: "In order to get to
Chicago from North Carolina and
the adjacent territory, take the
Richmond and Danville Railroad
to Charlottesville, Seaboard Airs
Line or Atlantic Cost Line to
Richm ond, and there take the
Chesapeake and Ohio (Which is
now running through trains to
Chicago, which will land you
nearer to the Worlds Fair grounds
than any other railroad from the
South, This road is thoroughly
equipped, AID will take you through
as comfortably as you could desire.
The Chesapeake and Ohio fast
trains, which are vestibuled. cleo
tricslighted and fully equipped
with through Pullman sleeping aud
dining cars, are luxurious indeed.
Theestop over privileges allowed
on Worlds Fair tickets at the
summer resorts along the Chesa-
peake and Ohio add additional at
traction. The Chesapeake and

the immense business, which will

APl-koAUHING TWO MINUTES.

When Mr.. Hobert Bonner, one of
the best authorities on the American
trotter was asked a year ago if he
thought lille would ever be trotted
in two minutes, he replied that no-
body could tell.
The rapid development of the
trotter in the last decade has led
many persons to believe that two
minute mile was near at hand.
The performance Of Ayres P. last
Tuesday on the Kirkwood, Delaware,
kite-shaped track will strengthen
this belief.
The horse, accompanied BY run
ming mate, and drawing a bicycle
sulky, covered full mile in 2:O3 1-2,
This is faster than any other trotter
ever went, but those who saw the
trial ARE confident that with better
running mate the record would have
been still further lowered. Ayres
P. Will be given another trial soon,
and is expected to clip off one or two
more seconds. The trotter has not
yet reached his full development.

The Real Trouble.

The Populist leaders went
throughout the length and breadth
OF the land last year proclaiming
that our currency had been fatally
contracted and that the great need
Of the country was more money.
This is pure nonsense. The
present situation is bad enough,
but it will be made far worse by
the Issue OF money of doubtful
character. The main trouble we
now have to contend with is sus-
picion of the character of some
of the money we have.
There is no truth in the asser-
ton that money is scarce. Never
before in our history have we had
so much OF it. We have issued
S600,00O,000 of greenbaclle, coins
notes ana certificates and we have
gold reserve Of only about $90.>
100000 to meet these notes.
There is the trouble. Serious
doubts as to the soundness of our
money system are entertained not
only abroad but among cur own
people. The result is natural.
Capital is timid and confidence is
lacking in business circles.
In the face of this fact the gov-
ernment is obliged under the
Sherman act IT, go on purchasing
4,5O0,O0U ounces OF silver every
month, though its losses On its
stock of silver bullion since the
21st of the present month have
been nearly $1S,O00,0OO, or about
100000 day,
Secretary Carlisle stated on the
13:5 of June that the government
had lost up TO that time on its purs
cbases Of silver under the Sherman
act $1O,SSS, $50 and this added to
the loss sustained by reason OF the
recent silver slump, makes total
shrinkage in the value of the gov
ernment's silver purchases under
the Sherman act of over $2S,OOO.-
coo.
The present value of all tie sffs
er the government has bought is
S95, 900, 900 less thaa what was
paid for it.
What we need is the assurance
of sound and stable currency and
the first step in the direction OF
such assurance must BE- the repeal
of the Sherman act
We think it is pity that Con-
gress is not in session right now
and at work to deliver us from
this danger and set Us On a safe
path,-Ahonta journal.

Gettyburg's Case.

The first two days of this month
were the thirty-second anniver-
sary of the first and second days
battles of Gettysburg. The State
of New York unveiled a monument
last Saturday to her troops who
tell on that field, and the New
York Herald embraces the occas
sion to reepublish the speech Of
Abraham Lincoln at the dedica-
ton OF the Gettysburg cemetery,
November 10, 1868. It has passed
into history as perhaps the most
remarkable Utterance of modern
times. Many of our readers have
likely never seen it. 1t is so lofty
in tone, SO felicitious in expression,
that, whether ones sympathies
we're with this side or that, one
should not neglect an opportunity
to becoue familiar with it. Ii is as
follows:
Four score and seven years ago
our fathers brought forth upon
this continent a new nation, con-
ceived in liberty and dedicated to
tue proposition that all men are
created equal. Now we are en-
gagged in a great civil war, testing
whether that nation or any nation
so conceived and so dedicated can
long endure. We are met on a
great battlefield of that war. We
have come to dedicate a portion OF
that field as a final resting place
for those WHO here gave their lives
that that nation might live. 1t is
altogether fitting and proper that
we shonld do this. But in. a larger
sense we cannot dedicate. we cans
not hallow this ground. The brave
men, living and dead who struggled
here have consecrated it far above
our power to add or detract, The
world will little note nor long res
member what we say here, but it
can never forget what they did
here. 1t is for US, the livs
ing, rather to be dedicated
here to the unfinished work
which they who fought here have
thus far go nobly advanced
It is rather for us to be here dedi-
Gated to the great task remaining
before rs. that from these honored
dead we take increased devotion to
that cause for which they gave the
last full measure of devotion; that
we here highly resolve that these
dead shall not have died in vain:
that this, under God. shall have a
new birth of freedom, and that
government of the people, by the
people and for the people shall not
perish from the ea-th.-M Chariot {

The Press and Party H0nors.

Every now and then some of the
brethren Of the press say something
about the immense services of the
Democratic newspapers and of how
little they are recognized and how
poorly rewarded by the party.
The brethren who thus discourse
are off their base. The present ad-
ministration has dealt and is deal
ing with the press in the most gen.
erous manner. 1t is stated that
Mr.. Cleveland has appoin ed
sixty editors to Office - that
is to say TO the higher posts
tions. Only one North Caro-
lima editor-Seott, Of the Lenoir
Topic-has received a presidentia
appointment thus far, but see what
the boys have received from the
administration There is Scott,
chief of a division in the Treasury
Department; Daniels, appointment
clerk in the Interior Department;
Tiptcn, of the Shelby Revieao,
State Statistical Agent; Powell,
of the Soattherner, position un-
der the General Land Office;
Newell, of the Henderson Herald,
a position in the Treasury De-
partment; Kerr, of the Citizen, ,post-
master at Asheville, NOEL, of the
Person Courier, postmaster at
Roxbcro; Marshall, of the Gastonia
Gazette, postmaster at his place;
Roberts, of the Lincoln Courier,
clerk in the collectors Office; and
Sheriff., of the Concord Times, is
to be postmaster if the influence
of two Senators and Representa-
tive can effect this result. There
is no other class of people in the
State that has gotten half as much
as the editors, and more of them
still are slated for positions. When
the brethren OF the press charge
the party with lack of apprecias
tion they are talking through their
hats.-Charlotte Observer.

THE BOARD OF EDUCATION.

Under the above heading Marion
Buffers Caucasian this week goes
far out of its way to attack Mr.. M.
L. Lee, the efficient and pains
taking chairman of the County
Board of Education because he
asserts the rights of the dominant
party-the party that has ever
been the friend. of public
Education in North Carolina
and appoints only Democratic
school committeeman in the vari-
GUS free school districts of the
county.
The Public =; School of
Wayne county are free to every
mans children-the white schools to
the white, and the colored schools to
the colored.
The presumption of the Caucasian
in wanting to force third partyites
on Democratic School Board is pre-.
posterous and the singing out Of Mr
Lee, who does not even vote on ques,
tions of this kind except in case of 8
tie, to be the lone target of its ats
tack is in keeping with the Caucus,
tam's unfair policy of procedure.
Besides, Mr.. Lee informs US, il
has no cause for complaint IN fact;
because the Board has recognized
Thirdpartyites and appointed many
of them on the colored free sch ol
committees. But Third partyites
will "kick," anyway you try tt
please them.
1t is on record too; that in white
school district in this county, before
the recent reappointment of com
mitteemen, where the commit G
had majority of Third party
ties, a lady teacher. holding a frs
class certificate, was refused employ
ment for the absolute reason tha
her father was Democrat. Ane
now the Caucasian cries out agains
INJECTING politics into the public
schools of the county,"
Consistency, where art thou !?
