The particulars are about as follows
,cAIIister. colored, was wanted by the
post-otIice department for breaking into
the post-office at Garysbnrg short
while ago, and warrant for his arrest
had been issued by the t. 5. Commits
<ioner. II. T. Harrell, and placed in the
hands Of deputy I. $. Marshall, T. +.
Gary, for his arrest Mr. Day had been
summoned to help make the arrest
bad arrested him and had hlm in Gus
.odv at The time Of the shOoting When
M Day told him to consider himself
under arrest he put his hand on him
and the colored man pushed it off and
and put his hand behind him and then
jumped and ran. Then Mr.. Day shot
him.
An eyewitness testified that he eX-
pected to see the deceased shoot Mr..
Day, so much so that if he had had a
pistol he would have shot him to pre-
vent Mr.. Day from being killed. There
was no inquest held, as 1t could not
have developed anything. The coroner
and everybody interested were perfectly
willing to divulge everything bearing
upOn the case. I he shooting was adj
mitted by the officer, and the attending
physicians, Drs \. B. Pierce and A. r.
Zollicoffer, testified that they believed
the wounds caused his death.
Our people were very kind to the
unfortunate man and had everything
done for his comfort possible, and the
community at large, as we'll as Mr..
Day, regret this unfortunate occurrence.
The officer believes that he did no more
thon stern necessity compelled him to
DO.
Mr. Day was ably represented by
>1essGs. f. + Clark, I. C. Harrison and
y. A. Damn Of Halifax county, and
". ". Fuller, Esq, OF Durham, who
made a most favorable impression upon
our people.

FOUND THEIR Place.

Some Congressman. who were defeat
Ell, have written to the SerSeant-at-
Arms, asking that their mileage be
forwarded them, as they do not wish to
come here this winter. OF course 1t
could not be done. Men who thus
desire to bleed the Treasury, prove that
the voters sized them up when they
voted to retire them to private life.
-Josephus Daniels IN Neus and o.
serrer
SO writes Mr. Daniels from Wachlng-
ton. And now it is not hard to see
why, during the last sitting OF Congress,
it became necessary t. arrest some of
its members and carry thea to Wash
ington in order to have a quorum.
ANY man who il so recreant to his
duties as a representative OF the people
Of any district in the Union as to negiect
his work in Congress, however short
the term, after he was defeated at the
polls in his candidacy for reelection,
deserved to be defeated And further
to ask for their mileage, which they do
not propose to take up in going to and
from Washington is disgrace to their
very names.
We hope that not many have made
such request-indeed we could hope
that it were all Joke, but we are forced
to believe it is true.
TUE DEMOCRAT insisted during the
last sitting Of Congress that 70 member
ought to receive pay for any time when
he is away from his post Of duty. unless
1t should be for temporary illness for a
day or two but to drop so low as to
entirely disregard his Obligations to
attend The sitting Of Congress a. all,
AMI tI:cn ask for mileage to be forward!
ed to him. is less than we had ever been
prepared to expect from any Congress
man, be he Democrat, Republican,
Populist Or what not. 1t reminds us
of Cicero's "Ad QUEEN finem ?" to Cata-
line, when he exclaimed "TO what end
will thine unbridled audacity cast
itself?"

TROUBLESOME DEER.

1t seemsa little strange to the average
hunter Or sportsman who tangles
through the forests and fields round
about Scotland Neck to Kill a deer
''once in awhile, that in Vermont fine,
large bucks with big antlers trOt along
the roads with the freedom that set
Element cur takes here 1t seems
stranger still that deer there are so gen
tie that they accompany COWS from the
pasture to the barn-yard and will rot
leave until driven away. 1t seems
strange also that farmers there complain
of the abundance of partridges which
ruin the fields and gardens. Vet such
is the case.
There Is a State law IN Vermont
which makes the killing or capturing
VI uccf, " even tlic iCSScsSlCI Cl lis
meat, crime punishable by a fine of
fifty dollars. This law extends until
the year 1900 unless it shall be repealed
and there is probability that it will
be repealed, for the deer nave so in
creased under the protection of the law
that they have become troublesome
cartridges are protected so are fur
bearing animals.
Wouldn't North Carolina hunter
like to be up there awhile after these
laws are repealed?

THE PRESIDENTS fESSAGE

Congress assembled on Monday and
the President sent in long message.
Perhaps it is the longest paper of the
Kind he has ever sent to that BODY.
We have not had the time to read or
review 1t yet Had we the time, we
could not give the space this week.
We may publish some of the more i'm
nortant parts of the message next week.
rom the tone of press comments
Niich we have seen, the message while
lie and strong, seems to be dlsap-
'intment. We do not know for we
ave not read it.

a common interest with other citizens
in this part Of the State, they will be
slow to aid in any legislation which
would NOS prove beneficial to their
neighbors and common fellow citizens.
And, too, both the Populists and
Republicans in the Legislature must

would be the means OF more petty strife

ACCORDING to the Goldsboro Head
light politics down that way seems to
be taking a serious turn. That paper
SAYS:
Because the principals Of the Mt.
Olive and Pikeville schools voted the
Democratic ticket at the recent cleo
ton, the Populist patrons of both
schools have withdrawn their children
informing the principals that hereafter
tney must look for their support
from the Democrats. We are also in
formed that they are treating their
pastors, who voted the Democratic
ticket, in like manner and are actually
