J. A. HARRELL FOR PUBLIC
PRINTER.

Rev. B. T. Long, the very intelligent
and conservative editor of the Warren
ton Record, refers thus complimentary
to our townsman Mr.. ]. A, Harrell,
in connection with his application for
appointment as Public Printer by Presi-
dent Cleveland
Mr.. ]. A. Harrell, of Weldon, is
an applicant for the Office of Public
Printer and while Mr.. Harrell has
never asked our endorsement we take
very great pleasure in saying We hope
he will be successful in securing the
appointment. If the United States
Public Printer has ever been appointed
from the South, we have not learned
the fact. Mr.. Harrell is thoroughly
posted in all the details of the printing
business. He is an intelligent man
and fully capable of discharging the
duties of the Office. If success is a
proper criteria of capacity, he is GER
tainly entitled to be considered a
thoroughly capable man for he has
made splendid success in the printing
business where ninety-nine in a hun
dred would have failed. We have
been having business transactions with
Mr.. Harrell for about twenty years
and have always found him thoroughly
honorable and reliable, and we do not
believe any man could be appointed to
the position of Public Printer, who
would discharge the duties of the Office
more efficiently than ]. A. Harrell.
The Norfolk Nrginian also has a
kind word for Mr.. Harrell, and says
this:
Mr.. J. A. Harrell, of North Car
DINA: editor Of the Daily Railroad
Ticket, and known from one end Of
this State to another, is in the field
strong for the position of Public
Printer. Mr.. Harrell is in every way
qualified for the place, and considers
that he has good chance to secure

Mr.. jOsEPHUs DANIELS has been
honored with the position of appoint
ment clerk in the Interior Department
by Secretary Smith. The office pays
$4,000 per year. We congratulate
Mr.. Daniels upon his good fortune
He is young man of high character
and has risen by his own merit. No
man in the State has labored more
faithfully for the Democratic party,
and his efforts to concillate the war
ring factions last year resulted in great
good. His firm hold upon the party
was most conclusively shown by his
election as State Printer over the strong
combination made against him in the
last Legislature. Secretary Smith pays
the Old North State a high compli-
ment by honoring Editor Daniels

The readers of the GOLD LEAF will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been able
to cure in all its stages and that is catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure known to the medical fraternity. Ca
tarrh being constitutional disease re-
quires constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system, thereby destroying the
patient strength by building up the consti-
tuition and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have SO much faith
in its curative powers that they offer one
hundred dollars for any case that it fails
to cure. Send for list of testimonials.

THE South certainly has no right
to, and will not, complain Of lack
of fairness in the matter of the distri-
button of Federal offices. Up to date
SIX Southern Democrats have been
appointed to the most important
missions within the gift of the Presi-
dent, and it is safe to assume that
there are other good plums which the
South will get in due time. The
South was loyal to Mr.. Cleveland,
even in the hour of bis defeat and
when it was believed that his political
star was on the wane, and like the
true man that he is, he is now
manifesting his appreciation in a
manner that is as gratifying to
Southern Democrats as it is substan-
tial.-New Orleans States.

Cured at Home in Ten Days by Ad-
ministering DR.. Haines' Golden
Specific.
1t can be given in a glass of beer, a cup

knowledge of the patient. 1t is absolute
ly harmless; and will effect "a permanent
and speedy cure, whether the patient is

1t has been given in thousands of cases,
and in every instance a perfect cure has
followed. 1t never fails. The system

study Of the model family living in tie
New York state model workingman's
home at the worlds fair. Unwittingly.
the bachelors summary strikes the key
note to the sociological problems of the
day, says the Boston Globe.
Not until the woman of his home
learns TO apply exact knowledge to her
homely, everyday affairs, will the best
living at the least cost be possible to the
wage-earner.
None realize this more keenly than
college-bred women. 1t is they who are
conducting the varied sociological eX-
periments now being made at the
worlds fair to practically demonstrate
the economic. hygienic and comfortable
living that lies within the means of the
Wage-earner.
One of the most Interesting OF these
experiments is the New York state
model workingman's home. located at
the terminus OF the Intra- Muir al rail-
road, IN close proximity to the Ant hrO-
biological building.
The house was opened July l, and q

pie continues to inspect its situation,

rejected it as too expensive to be prac-

to exhibit a model house for the average

Finally some word of the project
reached the ears Of John Boyd Thatch-

so that it should be So'ely in the inter
