VIRGINIA DEMOCRATIC

The result of the vote in ' If
ginia Tuesday is an overWhel-
ming Democratic victory IN the
election of O'Ferrall for Governor
and the rest of the State ticket
The Norfolk Virginian says, II
is a victory complete, a through
route of the Populist party and
the Prohibition coalitionists. II
is a victory that endorses IN an
emphatic manner the Domocra tic
administration of the affairs OF
State. and secures a CONTINUANCE
of good government. which VIII
rebound to the material prosper
ity and general welfare OF the
Commonwealth.
The General Assembly is again
Democratic by a large majority,
but few losses having occurred.
This secures the election OF a
Democrat 20 the United States
Senate for the long term, t he
election OF Democrats to the
Court of Appeals, ofDemocrats
as our Circuit and Country Jud-
ges. and of all the other State oth-
Gals whose selection are made
by the General Assembly.
The great majority secured by
the State ticket is splendid Gu
dorsement of the action OF the
Richmond Convention, which
was the largest and most thor
oughly representative body Of
Virginia Democrats that ever as
sembled in the State.

RAISE PECANS.

The Winston Republican says
Salem has for the last twenty
years demonstrated the fact that
pecansscan be successfully raised
In North Carolina. New Berne
can say the same for that is about
the length of time since the
hrst trees were put out here
The only reason for complaint Is
that so few of the trees have
been planted in either town OF
country.
AS pecans make good shade
trees and are long lived why not
utilize them i'll that way where
needed? The desired shade would
be obtained as we'll as from any
shade tree and the fruit of the
tree would come in without cost

w. D. PRUDEN.

In the Elizabeth City Econo-
mist Falcon we find the following
very complimentary mention OF
our distinguished toWnsman Mr..
w D. Pruden, which we take
great pleasure in reproducing
in the columns of the FISHERMAN
& FARMER Every word spoken
is true, and if he should be ap-
pointed to the Judicial char.
made vacant by the death OF
Judge Bond, mistake will not
have been made:
The Press of North Carolina
is looking around upon the bar
of the State to select some mem
Der upon whom we can all unite
to recommend as the successor
of Judge Bond.
Upon our own motion, With
out consultation or suggestion
from any one, fully impressed
with the Importance of unity IN
our recommendation, and accord
ing all honor 20 the distinguish
ed North Carolinaians who have
been mentioned for the place
made vacant by the death OF
Judge Bond, we beg to suggest
the name of our distinguished
fellow citizen, w. d. Pruden OF
Edenton for the place.
Mr.. Pruden is i'll the vlgor OF
ripe manhood, i'll the maturity
of his legal attainments, but IN
the dawn of his legal distinction
his private life is as beautiful as
his professional life is conspl-
cuous, and his name is the syno-
nyme of every virture. While
decided i'll his political conVlc-
tons he has never sought pollt-
ical preferment. His instincts
are all juridical. His aspirations
are all i'll the line of his profess
sion, but they are subordinated
to his modesty, his refined sensl
tiveness to propriety, his unset,
fish loyalty to his private friend
ships. He is FACILE PRINCEP:
at the bar of eastern North Caro-
lima, and the State has no bette,
lawyer i'll all its borders, no bet
ter man, and no more patriotic O.
devoted SON; and the appoint
ment could be conferred upon III
man i'll North Carolina wh'
would wear the judicial ermin
with more ability, more conscl
entiOusness or more credit to hi
native State.

A meeting of colored citizens
was held at Macon, Ga, recently
to take such action as they could
to stem the tide of the crime
which is the cause ofsO much
lynChing in the South. The
Wilmington Star says. The
men who took part i'll that meet
ing were respectable men, who
have the good name of their race
at heart, and represented the re-
spectacle element of their race
who have no sympathy with the
hends who perpetrate the crimes
which bring swift vengeance to
the perpetrators when caught,
and bring odium upon the race
to which they belong. Whether
the meeting will have any effect
Ill lessenlng the number of these
crimes is doubtful, but it at least
serves to show that colored as
we'll as white people abhor them.
Resolutions We're passed urging
the colored people of the South
to do all they can to discounten-
ance crime among their own PEG
pie and urging the churches to
take it up and wage a crusade
against it, but the misfortune IS
that the criminals and especially
the perpetrators of this outlaWed
CRIME which has become so conf
mon are not the class of men who
are influenced by public opinion,
or by the teachings of the chur-
Ches. They are simply brutes in
Whom unbridled passion is the
controlling power. They know
that the attempt at or the perpe-
tratlon of this crime outlaws them
among white people, but they
count on escape and therefore
take the chances. And they count
too. on being aided in ESCAPING
detection by their own people
1.-THE Colored men of the South
Who are interested in the good
name of their race, and would see
an end put to this reign OF lust
ful violence, would give the per-
Petrators to understand that thew
would be outlawed by their own
race too, and would resolved to
unite with their white fellow
citizens in hunting them down
and brining them to speedy
atonement with their lives i
might perhaps have salutarv
effect.

COL. WILSON'S INVESTIGATION.

He Finds the Annex Of the Ford's Theater
Building Unsuited to Present Uses.
Col John NJ Wilson, corps Of engineers, has
lost no time In entering on the discharge Of
the duties just assigned him by Gen. Casey,
chief Of engineers, looking to the scare, preser-
walton and safety" of buildings used by the
War Department outside Of the State, War and
Navy Department building He devoted most
OF his time yesterday to a careful personal in
spection Of the Army Medical Museum in the
Smithsonian park and the annex Of the wrecked
Ford's Theater building. which issstill used
as the printing branch of the record and pen
sion office. The Medical Mirseum building was
found to be in a thoroughly satisfactory con-
dition in every respect, but the same cannot be
said OF the building used By the branch
printing office. The building is not
regarded as entirely suited for
its purposes, and will have to be repaired and
strengthened. This course may be rendered
unnecessary, however as the department is
seriously considering the advisability Of aban-
the printing force to the Winder's annex at 6l0
18th street. Col Wilson will examine all the
other buildings committed tb his care at the
earliest opportunity with view to having
whatever repairs may be needed made with the
least possible delay. His report will probably
be submitted to the chief iof engineers before
the week Is over, SO far at least as two or more
OF the buildings are concerned.

A HEALTHY CITY,
what Ststistician Moore Says in Regard to
the Recent Deaths.

What Statistician Moore Says in Regard to
the Recent. Deaths.
Mr.. W. b Moore, who has charge of the de-
pertinent Of vital statistics In connection
with the health Office. and who makes a study
of the progress Of the different diseases, is Of
the opinion that the cholera will not reach here
this summer. 1t is now too late in the season,
he thinks, for the disease to make headwav
enough to reach here. and then. he says, this is
the healthiest city in the world. Its present
clean condition, he thinks, will 90 far toward
keeping down any disease Of q contagious ma
ture
In the report Of the health officer made last
week there were many deaths of children re-
ported Two-thirds of those who died were
under five years old. and the report which will
be made public tomorrow will show further
mortality among children.
Thus far this season." said Mr.. Moore to a
STAR reporter, ''.here has been but one death
from heat Last summer sixty-four persons
died from the effects of the heat. just about
this season last year there u spell of hot
weather, which carried off q number Of per-
sons
Mr.. Moore believes that many chidren's lives
could be saved by removing them to the coup-
try for the summer.
