Resign your offices, Gentlemen, every man
of you, as soon as Mayor STRONG is officially
authorized to receive them.
We fancy that the afternoon Of New
Years Day, or early the next morning, will
offer an occasion that you may embrace for
the purpose, with becoming combination of
dignity and cheerfulness.
Don't wait for the hand Of the new Re
publican Legislature to he laid smartly
upon you for the purpose of your expulsion
Stand not upon the order of your going, but
go at once.
There are a dozen or more of these Com

A cloud of !admiring compliments will
now be rendered TO those brilliant and success
full Republican politicians, JOSEPH HoDGEs
CHoATE and ELIHu RooT, both Of this city.
They are the chief authors of the new Constitu-
tion Of this State, which the people adopted on
Tuesday. They have reason to believe that
they have established their party in control Of
the State for at least quarter Of n century.
But let them earnestly remember that politl-
cal omnipotence is very dangerous TO its posses
sors and let the Republican party remember It
also. Il was said OF old that pride Roeth before

For the encouragement and possibly the
reproof OF young gentlemen at school OF out of
IL that have designs upon the Presidency, we
take this affecting passage from an essay on
Invention" printed In the North Carolina
University Magazine:
=" But ambition that fell destroyer that rankIes in
the breast OF unregenerated man. rears her gorgon
head. and with the pestilence OF the tree OF Java
withers everything around her. The noble powers Of
the mind destined for other purposes have been con
verted into instruments OF self upon
the ruins OF fellow. Thorns float In seas OF blood
Issuing from the wounds of murdered subjects
Afncted humanity weeps and pines that the
faculty which at one moment ennobles must ct the
next degrade all that Is lovely In our nature.
Invention! child of necessity! daughter OF mis-.
fortune were 1t not for thee, o what were man ,
world without sun
In the same essay "ys naughty potentates
mantled In the ermne of injustice" are directed
TO view the Government which wisdom has
erected In the wilds Of America, and draw the
veil Of oblivion, II you can. your aggravated
aggression upon the rights OF mankind" They
are also invited TO contemplate the immortal
FRASKLIS. that could arrest the lightning OF
heaven as It flashed across the horizon, and
avert the impending danger OF a threatening
storm" Tho esssyist adds that 1.-THE powers,
too, are strikingly exhibited in the character
WEST whose standing an artist is not in
feriOr TO any In the civilized world. The spon-
taneous production OF Americas soil, unassisted
by the polishing hand of art"
This essay was written in 1913 by a sopho-
more, aged Is, OF the University of North Caro-
lima. At that date and age his style had all the
ludicrous humidity of Populst platform. But
he was patriotic. His preference for the re.
spectacle BENJAMIN WEST shows that. Thirty
one years after this essay written, the essay
ist was chosen President OF the United States.
His name was JAMES KNOX Polk.

Major-Gen. OLIVER O. HOWARD. who will
be placed upon the retired list to-day at the age
OF 81 years, enjoys the exceptional honor OF

gress. He is, indeed the only officer now on
the active list who has this distinction. and he
shares II also with but retired officer. Gen.
RosECRANs. who was thanked by Congress for
the battle OF Murfreesboro. Gen. HowARD was
named among those to whom the gratitude OF
the American people and the thanks Of their
Representatives in Congress were offered " for
the skill and heroic valor which. at Gettysburg.
repulsed. defeated, and drove back broken and
dispirited, beyond the Rappahannock, the vet
eran army OF the rebellion"
But Gen. HOWARD was distinguished on
Western well on Eastern fields After
graduating, forty years ago, from the Military
Academy, to which he had been appointed from
his native State Of Maine he served as a subal-
tern OF ordnance. and was also. from 1857 TO
1851, Assistant Professor of Mathematics at
West Point. On the outbreak OF the civil war
he was made Colonel Of the Third Maine In
fantry, and commanded q brigade in the first
great battle OF the war; at Bull Run. Thence
forward he shared for over two years the fortunes
of the Army Of the Potomac, distinguishing HIM
self on the Peninsula, where, at Fair Oaks. he
lost his right arm. For his services in that bat
tie he afterward received the medal Of honor.
and he reached the rank of Major-General of
Volunteers on Nov. 20. 1862. and soon after
ward the command Of an army corps. When.
after Gettysburg reenforcements were sent from
the East TO the West, HowARD's corps, the
Eleventh, formed part OF them: and he there
after continued with the Western army, ulti-
mately succeeding MCPHERSON in command of

Where We Are At.

"A good many people wonder why
Morris was not located a mile south
or north of its present site, as the
former would have brought the town
nearer the Pomme de Terre river and
the latter nearer Frisby's lake, either
being more slightly and desirable
location. The following reasons for
the selection of the present location,
was given by the late f. r. Delano,
who was superintendent of the st.
Paul and Pacific during its con-
struction. Mr.. Delano said, that it
was the intention at first to have
located the townsite near the lake at
Frisbys, but as soon as it was learned
that the only land available in that
vicinity, had been taken by De Graf,
it was decided to move to the lands
near the river, but here G. A. f.
Morris had gobbled the choicest tract
and SO the townsite was located be-
tween the points named. AS Col. De
Gran was one OF the CONTAGIOUS en-
engaged in building the road and
Morris the chief engineer, they had
the opportunity to know in advance
the probable location of the townsite.
The townsite could not, at that time,
have been conveniently located south
of the first mile post east of town, as
the old grade was crooked, steep and
impracticable for depot and yard pur-
poses.

formerly of Morris,to Silas Cummings,
of Franklinville, New York. The
ceremony took place at our house 3O2
Sixth street south, at eight o'clock
last evening in the presence of few
intimate friends of the contracting
parties. Mr.. Cummings was born
and spent his early days in Franklin
vile, where his father was engaged in
the mercantile business for over
thirty years.. Some ten years ago he
retired from business with a plenty
of this worlds goods to make his de-
Ginning years happy. About three
months ago he died, leaving an aged
widow, one daughter and one son,
Silas, to mourn his loss. The bride

Postmaster Randall had a letter
pass through the post Office the other
day, addressed to Santa CLAUS. The
address was in the uncertain wavering
handwriting of a child, and would
have gone to the unclaimed list, but
for the fact that the corner card on
the envelope gave clue for whom the
letter was intended.
In so far as possible, parents should
encourage the efforts of the school
children to equip gymnasium. It is
a healthful and invigorating means
of exercise, and will be the source
of much pleasure and benefit to the
scholars. The cost will be nominal,
as the purchase of an equipment will
be gradual, and where all contribute
the trifing, quartery dues necessary
to secure membership, the expense
will not be noticed by any.
The happiest day of the year,
Christmas, is fast approaching. The
parents will rejoice to see their
children happy, make them happy by
some gift selected from the large
stock at Kruger & Slawson's.

On Monday evening at about mid
night, fire was discovered in W. 2.
Fowler's feed mill, and had got a fair
start in one of the bins before it was
seen eating it's way out OF the roof.
The alarm was promptly given, but
failed to be heard and only about a
half dozen were on the scene to assist.
Quick and effective work was done in
getting water on the blaze, and the
damage to building is notvery heavy,
but as in the previous fire, water and
smoke have done considerable damage
to grain, feed and machinery. A
good many peopleare inclined to look
upon the origin of Mondays fire as
incendiary, and Mr.. Fowler inclines
to the opinion that it would be next
to impossible for fire to originate
where it did, unless it had been set.

1t has been suggested, that in order
to assist in defraying the expenses OF
the orchestra just organized, a literary
and musical entertainment be given,
and the proceeds donated to the
purchase of music and one or two
needed instruments, viola and bass
VOL, The cost of good class of or
chestral music is considerable, and to
equip the orchestra's repertoire, will
necessitate an outlay that the
members could not afford. Several
of our leading musicians have sug-
gested this method of assisting the
new musical organization, and we
have no doubt but that our people
would cheerfully and literally pat
ronize the entertainment.

sixty invited friends and relatives, by

acted as bridesmaid and groomsman
