has just cropped out in the peremptory
demand served upon Lieutenant Frost,

instructor is usually assigned to duty by

relieved by the same power, Lieutenant
Frost has submitted the matter to the

be personally liked by the ascendant fac
ton, though he is admitted by all to be
a good officer and a gentleman.

GETTING TOGETHER.

We publish to-day thoughtful com
munication from Mr.. J. c. Buxton, of
Winston, on the political situation. In
concluding his article Mr. Buxton says
And while we are getting things in
order cannot the NEWS AND OBSERVER
and thesOharlotte Observer, the leading
Democratic dailies in the State, get a
little closer together along this line and
stop pulling the party to pieces over this
issue2
So far as this paper is concerned it has
not been party to any policy that
looked to quilting the party to pieces.
We stand upon the Chicago platform as
construed by the State Convention, and
we believe that this position is the only
one that we should occupy. But we
have not doubted the political in
tegrity of men who have held
an opposite view, nor have we at any
time criticized their position. We are,
and have all along been, firmly of the
opinion that the silver question and all
questions must be settled within the
Democratic party, and that talk of dis
rupting the party to secure any reform
was unwise and hurtful.
If this position, consistently adhered
to, is "pulling the party to pieces, the
NEWS AND OBSERVER is guilty of the
charge. Otherwise the sin does not lie
at our door. We believe that the Demo
cratic party can win in North Carolina
by united and aggressive Democracy,
which can be secured by concessions in
volviDg no abandonment of principles.
But it cannot win if a proscriptive policy
is adopted, or if the blue bottlers are
not rebuked.

The purpose Of this paper is to render
tardy justice to class of men ordinarily
too modest to sound their own trumpets
or too busy advocating the interests Of
others to take time for the contemplation
of their own achievements.

PROSPEROUS MEXICO.

In his message to Congress, President
Diaz says that Mexico is highly pros
porous Republic, and speaks in an OPTIC
mistic way of the expansion Of her win
ming industries, and the growth OF her
railways and telegraphs. Whatever
else is true about Mexico, this thing is
certain: During the period of unpre-
cedented depression in all good stand .rd
countries, Mexico has been more pros
porous than ever before. This may or
may not be attributable to her use of
silver, but it proves that even a silver
basis does not destroy internal pros
perlty. 1t is we'll to remember this
when you hear the gold men declare
that the country would 60 TO the DENIM

Walters Case Not Hopeless.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 17-Mr.
LangstOn, of counsel for ex- Consul Wal
Ter and Paul Bray, stepson of the latter,
were at the State Department to day.
They have received letters from Waller
showing that his health is improving
slightly in prison. As the advices re-
ceived here are to the effect that the re.
cord of the court martial in this cannot
possibly reach Paris before the 22d inst
at the earliest, the statement of the
French newspaper that the United States
Embassy at Paris has been given the pa
pers showing that Walters case is hope
less, is entirely discredited here.

PETTY MEANNESS.

The most indecent spectacle Of the
year was the spat of the brothers Till
man in the South Carolina Constitution
al Convention. A new county had been
named Butler, but in spirit of mean
ness Senator Tillmau secured a reversal
Of the action and had the county named
Saluda. There is nothing in a name, but
the bitterness that would permit a Uni
ted States Senator to denounce his own
brother because he would pay tribute
to the brave man the Senator had de-
feated, is unparalleled in history.

A special to the World from
Washington says: The Alaska boun-
Diary line question will be forced to
a speedy termination by the action
Of Canada, if not by some diplomatic
move on the part Of Secretary of
State Olney. It's announced that
the Dominion Government intends
to direct the mounted police to as
sumo control of the whole frontier
along the Canadian boundary of
Alaska, with power to collect Gus
toms duties and to hold courts-mart-
ial to try criminal cases.
The American and Canadian
boundary lines are in conflict as to
seven and three tenth miles of terri
tory along the Yukon river, on the
east end west line. The disputed
territory embraces the mouth of
forty-mile creek, through which ac-
cess is had to the valuable placer
mines at the headwaters Of that
stream. The Canadian police, in
carrying out their instructions, will
doubtless assume jurisdiction up to
the lines of the Canadian survey,
and several thousand American min
ers who will be in that region will
be subject to their authority.
Secretary Olney, it is thought, in
view Of the more or less serious
character of the situation, will make
some effort to bring up the dispute
at the Bering sea convention next
week.
In case of trouble along the from
tier ia the Yukon mining region, the

been enforced, until Miss Maud
Mullery was advertised to sing in a

young lady has sung in the choir of

joined the Salvation Army, which
she deserted to go on the concert

Great Water Power Project.

The United States Government
has made arrangement with the
Peoples Power company at Daven-
port, Iowa, for the erection of an
immense wing dam just above the
Government island. Thirty-one
turbine wheels will be erected. Two
1000 horsepower engines will be
put in, in addition to the 700 horse
power engine already in operation,
This improvement will cost about
s150,000, and will revolutionize the
manufacturing industries of Daven'
port, Rock Island and Moline. Next
to the harnessing of Niagara this
will he the greatest utilization ol
water power in the United States.
