lima, are inexhaustible but they need
ed p~ersevering energy and intelligent
management to bring them to light,
and this the Newbern people have
grandly done.
THE farmers. and very sersitly,
toe, have made up their minds to
pay more attention to raising home
supplies this year than to politics.
The latter will not be neglected at
the proper time, but charity begins
at home. A hog and hominy cam
paign is what is needed in North
Carolina. In speaking of the in.
crease in the amount of meat raised
last year a farmer remarked to
rs a few days ago, that he killed
only one hog for the year 1898, but
for this years supply he had killed
twenty good sized porkers.
Blythe sav, what have the Hill
ties to say now for their beau-ideal,
who has aft cted to be so great a
stickler for Senatorial courtesy" in
the matter of appointments and vic
lates a plain rule Of the Senate by
giving to the press his speech on the
confirmation of Justice White ? How
ever, little else could be expected
from such a source. In this Sena-
tor Hill not only demonstrates his
insatiate peanut-politician DISPOSE
ton to advertise himself, but vio-
lates a strict rule Of the Senate and
has laid himself liable to expulsion
from that body.
The firm of Hall & Edmundson,
so long and flvorably known in this
CITY, have dissolved copartnership by
mutual consent. Mr.. Hall will re-
main and continue business at the
firms old stand, corner of John and
Walnut street, and Nj. Edmundson
will associate himself with his
brother Mr.. Ed. l.. Edmundson.

and soundest Southern Democratic
, newspapers, is in accord with man
comments which we have seer on thu
Senator's conduct: "The country il
thoroughly disguised with Hill and
f those Democratic senators who ar,
: consorting with him for the purpose
of humiliating the administrator
simply because they have not beer
allowed to control the patronag,
they desire, and the country will
surely find an opportunity to speal
it's mind, and do it in a way to con
vince the maleontents that the masse
2 of the people are standing with tn
President and will sustain him."
! IT suits the purpose of the higt
tariff organs to aesume that the re

EVIDENTLY, advancing years have
not sweetened Mr.. Hewitt's temper
At the dinner of the Southern So.
ciety in New York Thursday night
he gave an exhibition of both bad
temper and bad manners. His sheer
ing allusion to Southern statesmen
was naturally resented by the South
ern men who were present. His re-
marks were not only ill-timed, but
they we're untrue. The records show
that the great majority of the able
and effective men whom the Demo
cratic party has had in Congress
since the war, came from the South.
Southern men are filling positions
of responsibility and honor in the
