Jarvis and the West.

Senator Jarvis arrived in
Raleigh Sunday, after a two
week. campaign in the West.
He brings with him none OF
the wearyingr effects OF those
days of Democratic toll, but
seems in good health, both
physically and politically.
He brings very cheering news
from the Ninth district.
"You can say" said the Sen
at0r last night, "that there
is no question in the Ninth
district except the question
of majority. Pearson went
into the campaign hampered,
and he has never recovered.
Crawford has got him beat
now, and every days cam
paign is only adding TO the
majority that is surely his.
IL made no speeches." con.
tinued the Senator, in Bow.
er's district. Bower ia max
votes every day and will
beat Linney by a good round
majority.
"You ought to have been
at Shelby ON Saturday," sal ]
the Senator, as glow of en-
thusiasm came over his fa@,
"you would have seel a gen.
uine Old-fashion Democratic
rally. lone thousand cavalry
men, one thousand footmen
and FIVE hundred ladies', and
these are not estimates but
correct figures. The great
meeting was an Inspiration
to Bower, Robbins and my.
self and we had a regular
Democratic love FEAST
"Yes, SIR" continued the
Senator, we are gainiug
every day and we'll
wnip'eln out for good this

The Chestnut anf its Weeyil.

1t is a well knownfac that
the weevil damages to q
great extent the chestnut as
a market crop. This is
made the subject of bulletin
los of the North Carolina
Experiment Station. 7 h-
life history of this annoying
insect is described, and how
the parent beetle lays her
eggs in the immature husk
or burr of the nut when still
on the tree. The eggs hatch
and il the nuts remain upor
the g,onnd the worms III
abont ten days bore their
way out and enter the ground
to pass finally adult state
during the coming spring.
1t is altogether Impossible
to prevent the beetle from
laying her eggs on the native
chestnut trees in the forests,
tut in cultivated orchards of
Spanish or Japanese chest
nuts the treatment would be
the same AS for the plum cur
culio. For treating he
nests, the following plan Sue
cessfnlIy followed by an ex-
rerlenced :or1 espondent is re
commended: scald thr nests
by placing a bushel or so IN
a tub, pour enough boiling
water over them to cover
one or two inches. Stir With
a stick. allow to remain
about five minutes, and the
weevilly nuts come to the sur
face and can be SKINNED off
and destroyed or fed to hogs.
Put the good nuts in bags
half full, and dry in the sun,
shake the manipulate freely
to hasten drying. The ker-
nels thus treated remain soft
and do not get ainty. Elk,

Democratic Rally at Shelby.

BALTIMORE, N. e., Oct. T..
Cleveland county on yes
terday had Il grand rally at
Shelby. Fifteen hundred ol
the "unter-ified" mounted
on horses, end two on oxen,
formed a procession. A ban
ner offered to the township
bringing the most rides was
awarded to township, No. 8,
which, by the way, captured
a fine silk banner two years
since, as we are informed.
The speakers were I. j.
Jarvis. "HOrt" Bower and
the irreprpssible Mack" Rob
bins. They made it a day to
be remembered.
The procession would have
numbered more by 1000 it
they had had horses, or oxen
available.
When as good d county as
Cleveland has more Demo-
Gratis than horses and cattle,
we feel like saying: God
reigns and the government
hives. News Observer.

The Presidents Wishes.

Baltimore Sun.
When asked about the at.
titude of the administration
regarding SenntOr HilPscan.
didacy Senator Faulkner
said: "The President is a
DemOceat. and as such is de-
sirOns 0t party success in
New York. THERE'S more in
volved in thisranpnign than
the mere election OF the State
ticket. The very life of the
party in the State depends
upon Democratic success, ms
does also the defeat of the
proposed constitution. ii
the Republicans win, they
will so gerrymander the
State that for twenty years
to come it will remain Re-
publican. This is under
stood by the Democrats of
all factions. and they may
be depended upon to use
every effort to prevent the
consuminHtlon Of the Rapnb-
lican scheme. So far as men
like Mr.. William R. Grace
and ex-Secretary Fairchild
are concerned, | think they
will have no hesitation in
giving their support TO Sena-
tor Hill. They may not
agree with other Democrats
upon a municipal ticket, but
they are ready to vote with
their party for the State
ticket"
Senator Faulkner does not
anticipate a declaration of
any k ind from President
Cleveland regarding the stu
alton in New York, at least
for the present. Nor do the
New York leaders, so far as
he knows. He says, how.
ever, if such a declaration il
needed, President Cleveland
may be relied upon to do the
proper thing at the proper
time, Just now everything
is progressing satisfactorily
and the prospects of ultimate
success are growieg brighter
every day.

Congressman Wilson 10 Welcomed
Home,

CHARLEsTowN, w. Va, Oct.
William l.. Wilson was vel
coined to West Virginia with
an enthusiasm unbounded
in the memory OF the Oldest
citizens of this quaint old
town. A committee of $50

Charlestown cornet ass
band, met the train convey
ing Mr.. Wilson and the Wash
lngton party at Harpsr's
Ferry. .As Nj. Wilson emerg
ed from the train the band
played "Hail to the Chief"
and Mr.. Wilson, as he passed
down the platform. was al
most suffocated by the crowd
that desired to shake his
hand. Entering the train
for Charlestown he was for
mally, in the car, welcomed
by Mr.. Brown, Il member OF
the reception committee as
the cable and fearless cha MP
ion OF tariff reform"
As the train moved out of
Harper's Ferry t he band
struck up "Home Again."
and the crowd, in three sp.c-
ial cars, packed TO their ut
most, followed with "a song,
the refrnin OF which was:
William L., William L.,
William L., we like to tell,
William L., welove you we'll.
As the train drew into
Charlestown two additional
hands hailed Mr.. Wilson's ar
rival with Dixie" He was
escarted to the court house,
where he made a speech to
the eager crowd.

Jesse KiIlian, an intelligent
and influential farmer, who
lives on the waters of the
beautiful South Fork Of the
Catawba, two years ago was
an enthusiastic aIlianceman
and popuhst and had great
weight in the councils of his
party. He helped to ncmi-
nate men who auvocated the
principles Of the alliance and
the peoples party, and work
ed for their election. This
year, however, he was invi-
ted to a different feast a sac
rificial feast, where every prin
ciple that he had advocated
before was to be offered up to
save a mongrel and fusion
ticket from defeat.
Theconvention met. Repub
licans and popnlists were
there talking about the SIM
ilarlty OF their principles and
advocyting fusion. 1t was
agreetfto. Jesse Killian pro.
tested. 1t did 10 good. Old
who had heard
the late Col. Polk on the cor
of the republican par
ty, looked eachother in the
fare dazed ut the thought.
Jesse Killian arose, with in
dignation in his countenance
and contempt for the unholy
proceedings, and made this
little bnt effective speech:
Gentlemen, | did not leave
my neighbors and friends Q
years ago to join the republi-
,an party. Good bye" and
eft them forever. And hun
lreds of other good men will

Senator Faulkner has been
in New York for several days
assisting Secretary Lamont,
ex-Secretary Whitney and
other prominent democrats
in bringing about a state of
harmony that is absolutely
necessary to the success of
the party at the coming elec-
ton.

assistant Secretary of State,
who was nominated by the
Michigan State Democratic
Convention for u. 8. Sena-
tor to fill the unexpired term

4, 1894. and which is now
held under a temporary ap-
pointmenI by the Governor
by Senator Patton, leaves
this week for that State. Be
ginning the Goth inst, when
he opens his campaign at De.
troit, Mr.. Uhl expects to
speak every week day until
the day before election. While
he is not Over-cOnfident that |
a democratic Legislature will
be elected he thinks there IS a
good fighting chance to do

share of the fighting.

Df the Board of General Ap.
praisers ut New York, and OF

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent

president Cleveland will
unless am badly mistaken,
said a usual well-informec
official of prominence, "tak'
steps within a few day &, pos
slhly this week, to l,t the
party IN New York and else
where know that the admin
istration wishes the election
of Senator Hill" This is in
accordance with statements
previously made in this cor.
respondence when poorly in.
formed persons, and Repub.
licans, were trying to creat tt
the impression that there
was a doubt as to the atti.
tude OF the administra ton
towards Senator Hills can.
didacy for the governship Li
New York. President Cleve-
land in his long political ca
reer has never been a holter,
and Senator Hill ia the regu-
lar nominee of the party and
as such is entitled to the vote
of every Democrat in New
York, and it will be safe to
wager that he will get that
of Grover Cleveland.
The formal announcement
that Senator Mcpherson, of
New Jersey, would not be a
candidate for reelection sur.
prised few people in Washing
ton. Simply because it was
expected, and was the natur-
al result of the state of his
health.
The statement cahlpd from
Europe t h "a t the United
States would join the great
European powers in interfer-
ring to prevent the complete
subjugation Of Japan by
China was really amusing to
those familiar with the set
tied policy OF President Cleve
land. The United States will
notioin the powers of Europe
for the purpose of interfering
with Japan, China, or any
other foreign nation, simply
becau use it does not believe
under the present admins
tratiOn-in entering into any
entangling foreign alliances.
1t is none of our business If
Japan licks China, or China
licks Japan, and the Euro
pean powers. which are sel-
fishly interested, will get no
assistance from this govern
ment in their schemes.
There has been quite a
storm among the Republican
leaders, hecause Of the report

Hia Order.

A speaker who has planned an ad

self confronted with but q single

be ludicrous A little story illustra-

University Of North Carolina.
One day, as this digni6ed and
stately parsonage was walking about
the campus, he observed an unlaw-
iul assemblage OF students at some
little distance. He did not hasten
his steps. but proceeded slowly TO.
ward them with his head down and
nis eyes apparently bent In contem.
plation OF his own boots.
When this lelsurely preceding had
brought him TO the spot where tho
students had been gathered, only one
roung man remained, the Others hav-
'ng precipitately departed.
The president raised his head and
surveyed the solitary cuipfit with
apparent severity, although the
Toung man always contended that
he detected twinkle in his keen
Eyes.
