The Public Printer.

The Washington Evening News
says: It has been suggested that
the President is rather inclined to
view with favor the appointment of
Southern man as Public Printer.
1t has been urged that the great
majority of the chiefs and minor ap-
pointees in the Government Printin g
Office would come from the East
and West, and that therefore mat
ters should be somewhat equalized
by giving to the South the principal
appointment. The fact that there
are two candidates from North
Carolina might perhaps tend to
initiate against the chances of eth
er. but it is understood that one Of
them stands ready to drop out of
the race in the event that the other
seems to have show for winning.
North Carolina has two candidates
both of whom are practical printers
and men of executive ability. One
is MIR. J. Abner Harrell, of Weldon,
N. c., who, it is said, runs the largest
job printing establishment in the
Southern States. The other is Mr.,
N. B. Broughton, of Raleigh N. c.,
who also runs a large job Office.

PHILADELPHIA, June 7.-Ceremo-
MES preliminary to the casting of
the new Liberty Bell were held in
independence Hall today. Much
OF the time was devoted to the ra.
port OF the committee, which sub
mitted a list of historical dates that
ought to be commemorated by the
ringing of the bell. Over $50 dates
were given. It was agreed to meet
IN Chicago on July next, when the
bell will be rung for the first time.
Chairman Mcdowell informed the
assemblage that the New York Cen
trail Railroad would take the new
bell to Chicago in the same manner
that the PENNSYLVANIA Railroad

Liberty Bell to that city, stopping
on the way at places where recep-
tions will be rendered.

Germs In the Malls.

By Southern Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, June 8.-The first
action of tn 4nfice Department
to prevent the spread of cholera by
transmission of the germs through
the mails was taken today.
The following order, which was
prepared several days ago, was
signed by Postmaster General Bis
sell this morning;
"My attention has been recently
called to an article published in one
of the medical journals of this
country, in which the author, an
eminent physician, offers to make
analytical examinations of persons
supposed to be affected with cholera,
and suggests that if these speci-
mems be bottled and tightly sealed
they may be sent to him by mail.
GAS this article has probably OBJ
tanned wide publicity, and may
therefore induce many physicians
to attempt compliance with the
writer's suggestion, I think it proper
to announce that disease germs,
discharges of any kind from dis
eased persons, or other things of
like character, no matter how
securely put up, are of the nature
of poison, and extremely dangerous
to health, and that they are there
fore absolutely unavailable.

FINANCIAL QUESTIONS.
CONGRESSMEN INTERVIEWED IN
IMPORTANT SUBJECTS.
Inc Repeal of the Sherman Silver
Law---Ihe Income Tax-.Repeal of
the State Bank Tax.
'y Southern Associated Press.

BY Southern Associated Press.
New YORK, June 8.-The World
interviewed nearly all the members
OF Congress by telegraph on the fol-
lowing questions:
l. Do you, with the present in
formation, favor the repeal of the
Sherman Silver Law?
2. Do you favor the income tax j.?
3. Do you favor the repeal of the
State bank tax?
The World in reporting their an
swers says
Many of the answers deviate so far
from plain Eyes" and "no" and in
volVe so many qualifications that no
tabular statement would fairly rep
resent the opinions they express.
The important facts shown are that
to the first question: Do you, with
your present information favor the
repeal of the Sherman silver law ?"
There are eighty-six representa-
tiyes who say practically "yes," )"
while only eighteen say "no." OF
the rest many who qualify their an
swer so strongly that they cannot
fairly be placed in the affirmative
column, show plainly that their in
clinations are in favor of the repeal.
The sentiment of the lower House
on the question seems to be over
whelming.
The World had already polled the
Senate on the silver bill, and March
8, last printed table showing that
the body stood for repeal thirty
nine, against repeal twenty-eight,
noncommital sixteen. It will be no,
tlced that several who were non
committal then are now in favor of
the repeal. There seems to be no
doubt that nearly two-thirds of the
Senate will vote that way. The new
er question of income tax develops
an interesting situation. Many who
speak freely as to the Sherman bill,
evade or ignore this question, but IS
say squarely they favor it, AZ say
that they do not. The Southern and
Western Congressman are the most
numerous advocates of such tax.
On the State bank tax question
opinion is almost as one sided as
IN regard to the Sherman bill, Many
dodge it entirely, but sixty say pos
ltlvely against repeating the tax,
while only thirty favor the repeal.

BY Southern Associated Press.
FARGO, n. ID. June 7.-Duripo a
heavy wind fire broke out here a. ,
p. m. and the whole city is threat
ened. Aid was asked for from
Grand Forks and wss promptly
despatched or special train at
44O p m. The burned district
comprises the business portion OF
town, and is bounded by the Wes-
tern Union Telegraph Office. the
Headquarters Hotel and the North
Pacific depot, thence to the Great
Northern depot and along the line
OF the Great Northern Railway 70
he'd River; 225 business houses and
residences; % hundred people will
be made homeless. The fire ia not
yet under control.
MINNEAPOLIS, MINI June S.-One
half Of Fargo, n. D., has been wiped
out, only one half of the bushes
houses being left At 10 O'clock
last night the fire was still burning
lercely in a dozen places. The
wind had changed to the North and
was driving the flames back on the
burnt district. The block in the
middle of the city from Robert ST.
and front street South, four blocks
wide and ten blocks long is black
ened plain Of ashes with not do
zen buildings left standing. The
fierce south wind drove the flames
like prairie fire. Brick buildings
seemed to melt away into heaps Of
crumbling sand, and it was impos-
s!ble to force enough water through
the main to fight the fire. A con
servative estimate Of the loss is $3,.
OOO,OOO, with not to exceed one
quarter insurance. Over three
thousand people are homeless, and
1T Is almost impossible to verify the
reports OF accidents. James Flynn,
eight years old, was reported
burned, also three other children.
Photographer Gilbert and an un-
known man is reported dead. Prac
tically only one hotel is left, the
Headquarters. The fire burned all
around it but so far i. has been
saved. Only one restaurant is left

The Buildings at the Worlds Fair


ID. A. London in Chatham Record
The great buildings at the
Worlds Fair are thirteen IN mum.
ber, and will strike every visitor
with wonder and admiration at their
immense size and architectural
beauty. The name of each build
ing indicates the purpose for which
1t is used. For instance, the Agri-
cultural building contains all the
agricultural exhibits, such as corn,
wheat, oats, fruits, vegetables, &c,
while the mining building contains
mineral ores, precious stones, &c,
and the art building contains pic.
lures, statuary, &c. The lar
gest building is called the
Manufactures and Liberal Arts
building, and contains a more mis-.
cellaneous exhibit than any other
building, consisting of mans kiiful
handiwork in every conceivable
form and design. II there was no
other building, except this, and no
other exhibits but those contained in
1T, the visitor could there see enough
to repay him for his trip to the
Worlds Fair. In it are the varied
exhibits of every cline and country
IN the civilized world, and its inn.
mensity can be appreciated only by
seeing 1t IN person. In the first
place this building is the largest
that has ever before been construc-
ted, the ground floor covering
an area of thirty acres. It's di.
mensions are 1,6S7 feet in length
and 7S7 feet in width, while the
height, clear from the floor, is 2O3
feet. 1t is said that 1000 dwell
lings, each 25 by so feet in size, can
be placed within it's walls. The
Hoor alone consumed over three
million feet of lumber and five ear
loads of nails. There were forty
one car loads of glass, CROUCH to
cover eleven acres, used in this vast
building. If any person should un-
dertake to walk through all the
aisies OF this building he would
have several days of steady tramp
ing and become footsore and weary.
