The Downfall ofthe Bosses.

Danville Times.
Senator Calvin Brice, of Ohio, is
quoted as saying: "The results OF
the elections of 1895 make it almost
certain that the nominee of the next
Republican national convention will
be elected President. There are
just thousands of Democrats in this
country who do not agree with Mr..
Brice, but who agree, with some
what emphatic unanimity, that the
results of the elections OF 1895 make
it absolutely certain that millionaire
political bosses who use the party
for their own selfish purposes have
had their day in the Democratic
party and the places that know
them now shall soon know them no
more forever. If the downfall of such
bosses as Brice and German does
not in the end prove a blessing to
the party, we shall be greatly sur
prised. The blessing may not
materialize and fully develop in time
to save the next Democratic candi
date for the presidency, but it will
come sooner or later. The campaign
of protest against boss rule has been
fought out to it's logical end, and
the blessings must follow, quickly we
believe, but either early or late, they
must come.

AGREEMENT VIOLATED.

On Tuesday, the 18th day Of
September last, in the presence of
vast concourse of people, at the
Sam Jones' meeting, the following
agreement, signed by every ware
house firm in the city, was read:
ssWe, the undersigned warehouse
men. of Winston, N. c., hereby agree
to close our warehouses on Sunday
and earnestly request all farmers to
assist us in carrying out this pur-
pose. All ministers throughout the
tobacco growing section are request
ed to give notice of this.
Such an agreement should be
honored as much as q bond, but we
have evidence that it has been
violated by at least two OF the ware
houses.
IF the plain English Of the agree
ment doesn't mean what it says, or
If there has been q change of purpose,
the fact should be made known
Otherwise, it should be expected
that the responsible men who signed
that agreement win execute it's pro-
visions.

Must Get Together.

Raleigh State.
The Democrats must come togeth-
er, reorganize the party and begin
to build it up again. 1t is particu.
larly saddening to us who for a
quarter of a century have been
laboring to bring about the estab.
lishment of Democratic policies in
our country to have these terrific
backsets. But for ourselves we will
take a long breath and join lands
with the Others in starting over
again.
Fortunately the approaching Re-
publican Congress can do no harm,
because Mr.. Cleveland can stop
radical measures by veto, and next
year the skies may wear much
brighter hues. In the meanwhile
here in North Carolina it is the plain
duty of all who call themselves
Democrats and who propose to
stand together with their neighbors
for White Supremacy and Good
Home Government to ignore every
thing except their State platform
and take care that the State receive
no harm from themselves.

FASHION NOTES.
Chats on rhe Timely Subject of Capes,
Wraps and Cloaks

Washington Post
The accepted cape for the coming
season falls very full to little below
the waist line, is shade longer in
front and back than at the sides, and
is very iuil. being almost complete
circular shape. 1t sets close about
the top of the shoulders and chest,
hanging in great fiariDg folds below
that line The collar Ii rs close to the
neck for about two inches, ard then
flares widely into fve-point sailor.
These capes are shown in seal, some
times 81 second cape falls full from
the shoulder only third as deep as
The first, aud often each cape and the
collar is edged with cbiuchiila. coon,
or marten. But the most exclusive
~ fashiona bic models are of the seal
,, with no trimming of any kind, and
depending on perfection of cut and
hang to attain their correct ef1sct.
The electric fur, or the French seal,
comes in such perfect finish that 30
one but an expert or the one who
sees the hilI can tell the difference.
| aud it wears as long as long as the
! seal, too. So, though many have a
prejudice against an imitation, there
Is much to be said III favor of this
one.
Cloth wraps of full length are of
| many sorts this season, among
| them being many really handsome
| notifications of the ulster One OF
brown cheviot is made with fitted
| sides and back and ioos4. front that
shows wide box ples4t extending

On the right side there Is d pocket;
and lace jabot is put at tn, neck
| The balloon sleeves are MODERATELY
wide, and the whole wlap ~ lined
with plain scarlet satin. Thu skirt
part is arranged in side pleats in
back.
Another type of cloak that is fire.
Quently seen comes a little below the
knees. This sort has a deep belt
| fitted like a bodice about the body
and a high collar with a l'uche set on
the very top of it TO fill closely to the
sides of the face The skirts of the
coat are made very full, and such a
garment is supposed to be suita BILE
tor wear over a light gown that
hardly needs the protection OF a ful
length cloak.
! The new high collar for fur cloaks
is msde on very different lines from
those of last season. The spreading
part is set OF q wide and closely
fitted band that fits cLoker- fashion
about the throat This makes the
spread come becomingiy high about
the ears, and the very plainest CIR
takes distinction from this sor
of background. The enormou,
"beasties'' displayed last year ar,
again III the shop windows, and it ii
a question whether some of thos,
that are offered are intended TO
floor mats or to be worn about tn

that it is enough to make a timiC

ghost might all of sudden max
the JAYS work and snap her heac
right off.

Well to Remember.

That cheerfulness is the weather
vane of the heart.
That sleep is the best stimulant, a
nerviDe safe for all to take.
That it is better to be able to say
no than to be able to read Latin.
That cold air is not nee essarily
impure.
That cheerful face is nearly as
good for an invalid as healthy
weather.
That advice is like castor oil, easy
enough to give, but hard enough to
take.
That there are men whose friends
are more to be pitied than their
enemies.
That wealth may bring uxuries,
but that Injuries do not always
bring happiness.
That grand temples are built of
small stones, and great lives made
up of small events.
That nature is rag merchant
who works up every shred and part
and end into new creations.
That an open mind. an open hand,
and an open heart, will everywhere
find an open door.

TRINITY, TOO.

Not long since we had the pleasure
to note that the management of
Wake Forest College had put the
brakes on the college foot ball craze.
We are glad to note that Trinity has
Joined the same procession. Presi
dent Kilgo is quoted as saying that
he will not commit the success of the
College to the fortunes of football
team. The Dr.'s head is level on this
question.
The American public, by very
large majority, has decided that the
BRUTAL prize fight must go and
American Colleges, with the same
degree of unanimity and good sense,
should issue manifestos against the
BRUTAL and demoralizing football
game.
While we are on this subject wew will
give some extracts from a recent
article in the Ladies' Home Journal,
by Mr.. Edward W. Box. He says:
$50 far as the brutality of football
is concerned there can no longer be
two sides to the question. The most
uncompromising advocates OF the
game have conceded this fact. If one
game of college football differs from
another it is purely and simply in it's
degree of brutality. How disastrous
and fatal were these displays last
year will be brought home more
directly to people when by carefully
computed figures it is shown that
forty-six deaths resulted last year
from collegiate games Of football
within short period of four months.
No record has, of course, been kept
of broken ears, lost visions and other
disfgurements AS a matter of fact.
there is no sport practiced by any
civilized nation which can equal a
record of forty-six deaths in four
months. When we regard
the effects upon the players we meet
a condition OF things equally serious.
Leaving the physical injuries entirely
out of the question, the game OF
football, as it is played today, is an
absolute detriment to the mental
development of those who partici-
pate in it. | have, during the past
six months, been at some pains to
carefully inquire into the class stand
ings of the men who comprise college
football teams, and the results were
interesting. In two cases found
that the majority OF the football
players stood among the lowest in
their classes, while in the other two
instances this same fact was true OF
one-half of the members of the teams.
Nor is the effect on other
students wholesome one. 1t re
quires strongly-balanced mind,
such as is rarely given to growing
boy, for h young man to pursue a
craving for knowledge when all
around him he hears nothing but
football talk, and sees the men next
to him become the talk of the coun-
try. 1t strikes for him, at the very
outset of his career, false note"

Bic cores, Fires in California.

SANTA Rosa, Cal, Nov. 18.-A
forest fire has been raging for twen>
ty>fnur hours among the hills two
miles northeast of this city. More
than so, 900 acres were burned over.
Three houses were destroyed. Rams
cheers turned loose their cattle to
enable them to escape death. The
county hospital, in which there are
many patients, narrowly escaped.
Near Emigrant Gap fires have
been raging for forty eight hours.
The flames have spread from East
to the West side of the Southern
Pacific tracks, and miles of snow
sheds are doomed. Fire trains and
large numbers of workmen are
fighting the flames. Considerable
property has been destroyed around
CANYON City.

The Matrimonial Market.

The Richmond Dispatch comments
that "there is a wonderful amount of
marrying going on just now" and
asks: "What makes the matrimonial
market so active? Is it sign that
times are better, or is it because many
couples have waited and waited in
vain for times to improve, and in
despair thereof have brought their
court DAYS to close" For the Pied
mont section we can truthfully state
that the matrimonial market was
never better.

North Carolina has many things
that commend it to the home seeker,
the manufacturer, the farmer, the
merchant and the capitalist. To the
home-seeker, residence in a delight
full climate; to the farmer, cheap
lands and diversity of productions;
to the business man, channels of
commerce and trade in almost every
locality; to the capitalist, safe and
conservative investments and the
certainty OF a rise in values in the
near future To all good citizens a
hearty welcome, just laws, an
economical administration of the
various branches of government, and
kind and considerate treatment.

One effect of this years election
will be to discourage party duplicity
and dishonesty. The political con-

declare their positions clearly and
unequivocally if they would secure
the respectful consideration of the
public. Straddling and equivocal
platform utterances have done the
Democratic party incalculable injury,

If the Southern people can them

interest in new and improved
methods, can get out of old ruts,
break loose from old habits and give
their best thought and energy to
adapting their system OF agriculture
to the economic and industrial con-
ditions of the times, the question of
immigra ton is of secondary import
ance. The largest advantage to be
obtained from a good class of immi-
grants is not in the mere addition to
the population, but in the introduc-
ton of a more varied, a more
economical and in every way a bet
ter system of agriculture. If South

1T looks a little like the New York

Cleveland boom. 1t says it "does
not at this time favor the nominal
ton of Mr.. Cleveland or anybody
else for the presidency" This is
said in an article drawing distinc-
ton between three presidential terms
and third term. This expression
also occurs in the article: "To limit
by alleged 'unwritten laws a free
dom which the constitution does not
restrict is unrepublican presumptu-
ous." From which it is fair to infer
that the World is not opposed to
either three presidential terms or to
a consecutive third term. We think
it would establish q dangerous
precedent il any man should be
called three times to the Presidency.
