With all their sheep and little ones,
Their cattle and their men.
And kept themselves in tribes apart
For awe of the great plains,
And learned the length OF days and nights

Save their own kind, who came TO birth
And marched and sang and died.
And left the mark of well pitch'd tents.

And tracks of beaten. billowed grass
Their fiocks had pastured through.
And sometimes on a mountain top
They stood among their spears.
And gazed across m unknown sea
Into the unknown years.
And sometimes DER a silent plain,
AS endless as the sky.

And meet them eye to eye.
And they would gaze and love and speak
And rest awhile. and then
Each journeyed past with all his sheep
His cattle and his men.

The Are Of Senator Harris.

The exact age of Senator Harris is a
profound mystery. He resolutely re-
fuses to state the date Of his birth in
the Congressional Directory. This il
only one OF his eccentricities. but II is
his strongest. | asked Representative
Patterson OF Memphis once how old his
friend really was. II any N should
know it. he should, for they are as
intimate as any two men in congress,
Patterson shook his head sadly. IF
Harris were to die tomorrow" he said,
Il do not believe any one could tell his
age to the marble cutters. In Tennes-
see we figure this way" he said, laugh
ing we know that he went ON the
duelfeld with Andrew jackson in 1908
at least this has never been denied.
He was . man then and supposed to
have some gray hairs at the time. A
conservative estimate would make him
ont to be about 100 years Of age."-

No Improvement Visible In Business

No Improvement Visible In Business
Circles Throughous the Country.
New York, Dec. lI.-E. G.. Dun Is
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says:
Trade of all kinds il waiting. There
In no visible improvement and ON the
whole the indications are q little less
satisfactory than they were a week ago.
The volume of business measured by
clearing house returns outside New
York shows a decrease of only 10 per
cent compared with last year, which is
encouraging, but as the statement COW
ers the payments for the first of the
month, it may not correctly measure
the volume OF new transactions. The
report9 from other cities show o hest
tating hede almost everywhere with a
decided disposition to wait until con-
gress has acted ON the tariff question.
Hence the
Delay and Uscertainty
are likely to last foi some weeks.
Wheat has risen a shade. Western re-
ceipts were only 3,577,231 bushels,
against 1894, 1870 for the same week last
year, while the exports from Atlantic
ports were only 49,, asa bushels, against
1881, 400 for the same week last year.
The receipts Of corn were unusually
large, amounting to 1927, III bushels,
against Q ,766, 780 for the same week last
year, and the exports were $50, 068 bush
els, against So, 500 last year. The
movement Of cotton was not encourag-
ing to holders, and appearances indicate
a larger supply on plantations than had
been expected. The cotton manufacture
does better than other branches at pres
emit, and yet it has not . very healthy
appearance. The demand is not strong,
and
Prices Are Barely Maintained.
In wooden goods the sense Of disappoint-
ment is very clear and there seems no
reason to expect any decided recovery
until congress has acted on the tariff
question. Several works nave stopped
production during the past week q 4
others running only to fill orders which
viii Don be exhausted. In the iron and
steel manufacture there are symptoms
Of Improvement. Copper liz somewhat
stronger. Lead has remained unchanged
in price and in tin the prices have bee1
almost stationary.

THEY STILL PANT.

AS announced yesterday, the Patriots
still pant. We notice that ever Durham
patriots are sending in credentials to the
great GROVER and in idle expectancy
wait for his gracious gifts. 1t is to be
sincerely hoped that one of these days
the faithful may be called.
Wouldn't it be a funny president, a
queer cUss, who would issue a royal
manifesto 70 the effect that no man who
made an application for office would be
recognized That the president would
appoint a commission in each district to
report to him about those who were eli,
gible-and not fifteen, as they would say
down here? All, it would, but then that
will not happen this summer or this fall,
Wait till the clouds drift along for such
business as that.
But the pension beggars are no less OBJ,
nOxious than the place beggars are be,
coming. Let us bray.

government, take hold Of it and manage
it? Why was it not located in Washing
ton, where it belonged, and what right
has a newspaper to call the fair a Ma
tional affair when it is in the hands of
money-makers and road agents? The
railroads charge too much fare; the ac-
commodations are not sufficient and the
bunco-steerers in one way and another
are playing hob. Let the Worlds fair
fizzle and die the death it deserves. 1t
was conceived in fraud, and because
level, headed people refuse to aid and
abet and enrich the fraud, furnishes no
excuse to herald the failure as a National
exhibit, nor as a National calamity.

MR.. WILLIS MANGIM.

The announcement of the death Of Mr.,
WILLIS MANGUM will be received by
many people in Durham with regret. Mr.,
MANGUM had long ago passed the mile
posts which so few are permitted TO pass,
and he was always an honest mana
upright citizen. For some time he has
been feeble-the inevitable penalty of
age-but in his last hours he was a man
who had no enemies; he had scores of
friends. THE GLOBE makes the an
nouncement of his death in sorrow, and
friends by the score will be deeply moved
10 hear the unwe'COme news.

AN APOLOGY.

THE GLOBE lifts its hat to MR.. L. '.
ROGERS, Mr.. J. D. BOONE, editors, and
Mr.. J. J. OSBORNE, Associate editor of
the Waynesville Courier, because we
have done these gentlemen rank injus'
tfce in not printing their pictures, as it
would seem they expected. The able
crowd, commenting on the>picture OF a
steer, somewhat elongated, which we
print whenever we feel like it, says:
So then you get pay for that old COW you
print at the head Of your first page six times a
week and forget to take it out of your weekly
edition. We have heard Of stereOtyped ap-
pearance, but The GLOBE don't belong to the
press association for the reason that when
enough of obituaries fail 10 arrive to fill its
columns the old long-legged COW invariably
finds her "topO Of column next 10 pure obituary
not rcading) matter" and therefore 1t Is a
COW o-typed paper.
We really regret our oversight. The
picture Of the cow "as so much more
preferable thar that of Mr.. +. '.
ROGERS, that of course we naturally gave
the COW the preference. But WI pro,
pose to do the square thing and thus pre-
sent Mr.. ROGERS as follows:

iii ONE QUESTION.

There is a { great deal of speculation as
to the chances Of a repeal of the silver
purchasing act. Members of congress
who nave good opportunities for know
ing the sentiment of the house are quoted
as saying that there will be a safe major
ity for repeal, while others insist that the
act cannot be Internationally repealed.
The Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Ledger, who is a most intel
ligent and trustworthy observer, thinks
pass the house, but he does not regard
the chances of such a measure in the
senate as favorable. The latter body, he
observes, is less under the influence Of
public opinion than the former, yet a
positive vote in the house for repeal
might exert a wholesome influence ia the
senate. There appears to be no very
good reason to expect, however, that there
will be such a positive vote in the house
for repeal as would affect the position Of
a single one of the senators who are OPP
posed to touching the Sherman law unless
there is substituted for it legislation
equally favorable to silver, and there is
no question that the number of these is
sufficient to defeat repeal. A majority
of the democrats in the house are with
out doubt opposed to repeal and those
who assert that it will have a majority
in hat body must count on the republic
cans, but there is some uncertainty as to
what their course will be. Indeed, the
whole matter is surrounded with uncer-
t~ainties 1t is said that the feeling in
financial circles has improved somewhat
since the president announced that con-
gress would meet in September, but the
outlook for the financial legislation
which the administration wants is not
so bright as to greatly encourage conf
dence.

WHY Is IT?

The New York Morning Advertiser,
in a burst of patriotic enthusiasm, ex-
claims aloud
Practically one fourth of the time allotted
TO the Worlds fair has passed and the attend
ance thus far indicates plainly that the great
exposition cannot be made a financial success
without heroic effort. II can be and il should
be made Il great National success. The whole
world recognizes the magnitude and the ex-
cellcnce of the show. Let every citizen feel
that ii is incumbent on him TO do something
TO help it. The honor and glory of the great
republic are at stake.
Why is the Worlds fair a ward of the
nation, and why should every citizen
feel that he has duty TO perform: Who
originated the scheme which had for its
purpose the enrichment of railways,
fakirs and monte banks: If the thing
was National, and hat was the intent, as
We take it, why did not congress, or the

LET IT BE DONE.

THE GLOBE understands that the city
council will positively refuse to Fay the
water company for its alleged service for
several months past. This might be a
hardship on the water company, but it
would be eternal justice. The service
has been wretched. The supply Of water
has been practically no supply, while the
stuff called water has been principally
mud and filth.
To a direct question from MAYOR
PEAY, SUPERINTENDENT NICHE adj
mitted that ven hydrants in the city
were choked with mud. Those who are
the guardians of the city's finances, and
those who do not believe that something
should be gotten for nothing, are justly
indignant when they hear such admis-
sions are accompanied by a demand for
cash, in payment for services never per
formed. AS it is to day, the water COM
pany is a fraud and in dealing with it it
should only be treated as such.

He Is Still Bitter.
New York Morning Advertiser

LHO' ANAN nm
The South still pleads to be let alone,
as in the olden days. 1t may continue to
send representatives to congress to make
laws for northern people on the suffrage
of negroes who do not vote and it NAV
continue to deny free speech and free
action to citizens, but it wants no cen
sure at the hands of the North. The
editor of THE DURHAM IN. c. GLOBE
says:
If the Northern press is so violently in IA
vor of free thought and free institutions, the
South might be let alone and allowed to enjoy
the inherent right of every human being in
the way which suits il best. The fact of the
business is. the Morning Advertiser would be
in better business in attempting to clear the
moral atmOsph,r re of tn great wicked metroI
Oils in which " has its home, and in devisi. 9
plans TO keep out cholera the coming season.
The South will take care Of itself.
The old heresy that the South is a
separate section of the country to lie
managed in a peculiar way under special
laws and conditions seems to be still
fostering in southern brains. As To this
newspaper 1t certainly criticises the acts
of public servants in its own neighbor-
hood and there is not a day that it is
not engaged in honest effort 10 improve
the morals of this metropolis. No pent
up Utica or Syracuse contracts the pow
ers of this newspaper. What we say in
criticism of the South is based upon fact.
If it is not agreeable TO the brethren who
are so anxious 10 be let alone we can't
help II.
