Whereas, it is our duty to protect the in
tefeSts Of Douglas county a a probable

proper

shall read ANY time at the expiration of

On The wrong Er&CE1.


Nh. Johnson's resolution putting
more work ON the patroImen, rcquir-
ing them to report on gambling, must
be a mistake. Aid. Johnson should
have introduced a resolution for the
relief Of patrolmen in the perform
ance Of their arduous duties in the
shape of an assistant or messenger
boy as when some of those worthless
are interested in a crap game or poker
game it is asking too much of them to
90 and ring up police headquarters
when they are en- duty. They might
catch cold; and then it interrupts
them, They should have an assistant.
AID. Johnson, look into this.

For Mayor.

Already people are asking the ques-
ton, who viii be the Mayor" Who
ever it is should be able, honest and
capable. 1t matters not what his pol
itics may be. One of the most foolish
things done is to draw party lines in
municipal elections. The man of sense
is tired and disguised with being ask
ed to take off his coat and hurrah for
a democrat or a republican for some
city office. 1t is purely a matter of
business, and it makes no more differ
ence what the national politics Of a
city officer is than do the politics of him
who chops the wood or pl0ws the corn
There ought to be citizens OrganiZl-
ton that would disregard partisanship
and promote patriotism and economi-
cal government. II this is not done by
business men the campaign would
drift into the same old political TutS
as formerly.-South Superior sun.

Incendiarism Bearing Fruit.

The sentiment given expres-

the Reps and Pops would be JUS

ing fruit. In Pasquotank county

Washington News.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-Com-
mOdore Selfridge and the InSpec-
ton Board returned from New
York to-day. They reported to
Secretary Herbert that the Ma
CHS was found in nearly perfect
condition, that her crew were
sufficiently we'll drilled for active
service if any emergency required
the use of the ship in actual SER
vice. Secretary Herbert said he
would promptly issue sailing
orders for the ship to join the
Asiastic squadron, and after talk
ing coal for the voyage and re-
ceiving extra stores for the Chi
cago at the New York Navy
Yard, the Machias will probably
leave early next week.
The flagship Chicago arrived
at Lisbon this morning. She will
remain there until the arrival of
the Machias.
The President to-day appointed
JAS. B. Greene an assistant sur
geon in the Marine Hospital
Service.
Another case of smallpox was
developed among Government
clerks this morning. James, I.
Parker, of Indiana, q law clerk
in the division of the interior De
partment, the cases where re-
ported. was the victim. Secre-
tary Smith issued directions
to-day to have the depart
ment closed tomorrow. This ac-
ton was taken before the Secre-
tary was aware of the new case.
He said the order to close was on
account of the fumigation of sew
eral rooms,in the building, which
was very disagreeable to the per
sons employed in the building.
In consequence of the discovery
of the new case, the department
closed this afternoon, as each
fresh case becomes traceable to
contact with persons employed
in the department
| The President held his first
Cabinet meeting since the first
week in September to-day. All
of the members were present ex
cept Secretary Morton, who is in
Europe. Naturally, they had
much business to lay before the
president that had accumulated in
| his absence from Washington,
lSecretary Gresham in particular
being charged with several mat
ters concerning foreign relations,
and all the Secretaries wishing
to discuss the leading points to
be treated in their annual re
lports.
The cash balance in the Treas
ury at the close of business to-
day was S112,711, 431; gold re-
serve SOL, 140, 537. The increase
in the gold reserve to-day was
about $500, 900, and during the
last three days 81, ,624, O85. To
days increase was due to pur
chases of gold by the mints.

Train RObberieS.

The latest train robbery occur
red at Wagner, Indian Terri
tory, a few days ago. Where
the next one will occur, no one
can tell, but it is safe to predict
that we will hear of another soon.
There have been more than half
a dozen such outrages within the
last four months.
A few years ago, a train rob-
berry was a very rare occurrence,
and was unknown outside the
thinly populated regions of the
far West, but We are not sur
prised now to read the accounts
Of these desperate deeds every
few days, and two weeks ago,
one of the most remarkable rob
berries on record occurred within
forty miles of the National capi-
tai.
1t appears to be compare
lively easy thing to hold up a
train. Frequently it is done sue
cessfully by three Or four, OF
even two men. There is at least
one instance on record where
one man stopped and robbed a
train with hundred passengers
on board. He pretended, Of
course. to have gang at his
back, and nobody knew whether
he had Or not.
Almost every train robbery tina
has occurred in this country coulC
have been prevented if the pla1
suggested by the Journal som'
time ago had been in operation
We advocated the protection o1
mail trains by United States sold
iers. It is the duty of the gov
ernment to protect it's mails an
two soldiers with modern arm
would be more than a matcl
for almost any band Of train roE
bers ever assembled.
| Besides, if it were known tina
trains had such a guard, an al
tempt at train robbery woul'
rarely be made.
| The idea is, at least, wort
considering. To us it seems Ell
tirely practical and free frol
bjectiOns. ns.-Atlanta Journal.

They Don't Like Fusion.

In these days of fusion Of par
ties and confusion of principles
and candidates, it is indeed re-
freshing to find an honest and
open avowal of principle, such as
that made by the Wilson county
Republicans at their convention
last Saturday. The platform they
adopted is also significant as
showing the honest opinion en-
tertained by the colored people
of North Carolina in regard to
fusion and the Populist party.
The resolutions adopted are as
follows:
We the people of Wilson county
in convention assembled hereby
declare our firm allegiance to the
National Republican party; and
with grateful hearts acknowledge
what it has accomplished for the
negro race. We renew our adhe-
renee to its principles as de
clared in it's last national plat
form and standing squarely upon
that platform we view with re-
gret the departure which has
been made by that portion of ou1
Organization in the State now
Eclaiming to be fusionists.
! We denounce the effort made
by the minority of our party tc
sell US out to the few designing
men whose ambitions are alone
for office; who are emboldeneC
to term US traitors because We
are not willing to sacrifice ou1
principles to further their ambi
ton.
! We know that the attempt a
fusion as illustrated by the de
mands and efforts of the so
called Peoples Party in thi
county, has no show of fairness
or justice about it, that the negro
is altogether ignored, and that i
, he does not swallow at their die
tation a ticket which he ha'
/ nothing to do with making he i
: declared a renegade and a traitor
They have not even put a Re
publican of either color on thei
: ticket, and they do not preten
to advocate a single principl
: enunciated in the Republica
: platform.
r Resolued, That we are the Re
5 publican party, and those VIII
1 denounce us are the traitors.

SENATOR HILLS CAMPAIGN.
Greeted by Enthusiastic Crowds at
Utica and Syracuse.

OSWEGO, N. Y. October Co.
Senator David B. Hill arrived
here shortly after 6 o'clock this
evening and was met at the sta
ton by over a thousand persons,
who gave him an enthusiastic well
come. The Senator was accom-
panied by JamesLindsay Gordon,
of New York city, formely of
Virginia, Col. John S. McEwan.
Hon. Samuel A. Beardsley and
Agricultural Commissioner Mr..
Schraub accompanied the party
as far as Utica. On arriving there
the train remained for few
minutes. A crowd of several
hundred persons surrounded Sen
atOr Hills car, and there were
cries for Hill. The senator step
ped out upon the platform and
spoke for few minutes. He
said:
I am pleased to be able to
say to you that since my visit
here last week the cause of Dem
cracy has been gaining ground.
Be not deceived by the confident
spirit assumed by our adver-
saries. We are going to win The
people are not with the Repub-
lican party: they are with us. Let
them bring on Harrison Nc
Kinley and Reed. We have no
objection, but we are sorry to
observe that the Republican
party has not within its ranks
within this State speakers who
can defend her principles and
answer Democratic arguments.
| have only to say to these i'm
ported orators that New York
has always been able to vote for
itself without outside instruc-
tions, and will do so this Fall.
She has also been the one State
which has always stood for Dem
ocratic principles when the tide
of Republicanism has swept
over our sister States in past
years. New York will be true to
her record this Fall in this re-
spect, [ can assure YOU" His re
marks were received with pro
longed cheers.
The train to which was at
tached Senator Hills car arrived
at Syracuse at 4.35 p. m. At the
station another crowd greeted
him and large number of peo-
pie boarded his car and grasped
the Senator's hand. The Senator
spoke but a few words from the
car platform to the waiting
crowd and then introduced Mr..
Gordon, who spoke for a few
minutes.
At 1 o'clock Senator Hill left
for Oswogo accompanied by a
reception committee from that
city.
Along the road to Oswego
crowds greeted Senator Hill at
Phoenix and Fulton. On arriving
here he was driven to the resi-
dence of Theodore Irwin where
he was entertained at dinner.

THE SOUTH BECOMING BETTER
KNOWN IN THE WEST.

The following extracts are
from letter written by an Iowa
real estate and immigration agent
to an immigration agency IN the
South. The latter sent the let
ter to the Southern States maga-
zine. of Baltimore, Md, with
permission to use such parts of
it as did not relate to private
business matters:
''* x [ am not a believer in
special providences, but there
seem to be events on all sides
which tend to drive immigration
