A Bee Story.

An Irish landlord appointed a day to re-
ceive his tenantry, and the agent presented
each one to his principal, who inquired into
the conditions Of the grimbling and dissat-
isfled recipients Of his favors. Things went
on pretty smoothly, until at length a ten
ant presented himself whom the agent
failed to recognize, and the landlord turned
to the figure before him. which, with face
and head swollen out Of all proportions,
awaited his address In sullen silence.

LET EN- GO.

DR.. 1ates has written a screed, as we
would say were we in France about the
Mormon Elder. We fear the genial and
gentle doctor does the Mormon Elder
great injustice. We, speaking of the
gentleman side of this institution, have
seen the Mormon At Work.
lie is for the nos part, an ignorant,
dirty, shiftless devil and he never cares
whether school keeps or not. But he
does do this: He gets married and he
takes care Of his wife or wives and he
treats them decently; but all the same
he is not our kind of man.
If the Mormon elder can get recruits
down here, we want to ask DR.. YATES
what's the matter with him getting them.
Is any one is fool enough to line" the
Mormons, maybe he will not Zine" the
We. I. L, and maybe he will not cine
the Gmcars, and thus will we be rid Of
the presence of the Awful One.
We are not defending the Mormons,
but it seems TO US if we have any fools
here who know no better than to 90 with
them and join the church, that we would
be, by all odds, the gamer in securing
their room.
Let all the idiots join the gang. This
would REFUGE the number of foolish and
miserable ones at our work houses and
poor farms.
DR.. YATES has viewed a fool through
the windows Of a rational being. We are
sorry that he has interfered. Education
never made brains. AT best it bat as
sisted brains. The Mormon is absolutely
and irretrievably lost.

THE FUN BE,

When Durham town establishes a prec
edent on the rights Of franchise and
"sich," the law will be wonderfully en-
riched. When the city can extend a
franchise tc a corporation, and the cor,
pOration lives up to all its agreements
and the city declares that which it, in
fact, created, a nuisance and goes to tear.
ing up property and destroying it-Well,
the courts will perhaps decide that case
when they get to it.
To morrow is the time when the track
of the Consolidated Land company will
be pulled out. COLONEL CHARLEY NOR
TON will get on one end, COLONEL ED
L~INEBERRY on the other, while CITY
ATTORNEY PARKER will give 'em a little
boost, and the whole business from Five
Points to a dozen points down Main
street will be yanked out.
1t looks like another company wanted
a franchise for street railway purposes,
and the obliging council was getting
ready to accommodate them. This, how
N'NA) 10 SObJCSIulOJ anu may d~SCOIuluSl|
be true and it may not be true.
Anyhow, the track pulling will COM
mence. We are informed that COLONEL
DICK WRIGHT proposes to run cars con-
tinuously over the track tomorrow, and
that he will put some forty cars on the
track and arm the drivers. He will post
a note of warning, defying any one to
pull up the track, and if any one attempts
to pull it up, we are also reliably in
formed that the said one will get the pea
green stuttin' shot out of him. For all
We know, at this writing, to the contrary,
MIR. WRIGHT may equip each car with a
cannon. THE GLOBE desires to warn
mothers and nurses and caution them to
keep their children off the streets when
the fun begins.

fdence when men are almost wild, can it
not appease hunger by a simple turn of
the wrist? Why should there be sorrow
in the world when We have a congress?
Why should there be anything but a long
summer afternoon and a flower garden
and We all its butterflies.
The reason is that congress wants TO
meet and repeal a law and the chances
are Ten to one that the Sherman act has
nothing to do with hard times. We are
always in favor of a low tariff. We
think, in our little way, that the country
has no right to rob the many to enrich
the few, but we tell you, friends, the
tariff is what is doing this thing. Capt.
tai thinks tariff is to be cut off, and CAPT
tai is a bigger coward than a monkey
pursued by a snake.
Confidence cannot be restored by law,
even if we do have artificial rain-makers.

1T CAME.

The rip snorting, ram-iamming and
bob-tailed street car in a blaze of bril-.
liant and gaudY glory, came down the
street this morning-came like the French
general with his troops, because it went
up the street again.
Piles of stone and sand, and numerous
and sundry workmen were engaged by
the city and for the city, and there was a
blockade on Main street and all this
made it impossible for the street car to
traverse the track.
Tomorrow morning, under the order
of the city council; the street car track
will be torn up. Mr. r. II. WRIGHT,
representing the company which owns
the street car line, made a public propo.
sitiOn to meet all the requirements which
this city, under its official charter, could
possibly demand.
The GLOBE desires at this time to
state that the logic, the honesty, and the
decency of the proposition to tear up the
track are at variance with any form of
moral law. The owners Of the Durham
street railway company have complied
with their contract, and for the learned
statesmen-we pause for laughter-who
constitute the present city council to
say that it can rescind all former CON
tracts, is, briefly, idiocy in the superlative.
The taxpayers of this town should
earnestly protest against this order of
the city council an order which would
cause the Gar Of all the Russias to be
astOnished at his moderation.

LEGAL CONFIDENCE.

Congress meets on Monday. 1t meets

nation has lost, why not let them vote

An Excursion Coming.
Washington Evening News.

Col. Al Fairbrother, the editor of THE
DURHAM GLOBE, is another mOulder of
opinion who believes in hoeing a row of
potatoes while studying up pearls of
wisdom for the next issue of his valuable
paper. He has a great moist, mellow
farm a few miles out of town, and on it
he raises a fine crop Of Hail Columbia,
with a few acres of garding sass on the
side. The colonel is celebrated for the
yams he produces, and has also a local
reputation as a cOnnoisseur in saur kraut,
of which he annually sells 800 bales.
This department is arranging for an ex-
cursiOn to Colonel Fairbrother's farm.
The number participating will be limited
to fifty, and every man must take along
his W blankets, as the colonel cannot
be expected to furnish both board and
bedding free. Three weeks will be spent
by the party at Durham, at the colonies
expense, when the excursionists will adj
journ to Col. Bill Nye's farm at Arden,
where they will remain until elected by
process Of law. Those who desire to
join the party should make their applica-
tions early.
