EX-SENATOR JARVIS NOT A CAM
DIDATE.

Ex-senator Jarvis is clearly right in
saying that 'the Democrats ought to
nominate the strongest man we have for
Governor in May and start him to work
early" There will be need for long
and earnest campaign of education of
the right sort, and the nominee for Gov
ernor and his associates on the State
ticket viii win votes by having time to
go into all sections of the State.
The joke recently quoted in this paper
as coming from Senator Jarvis and the
advocacy of his nomination for Gov
ernor by not a few strong men, has
caused it to be talked that he would like
to be the standard bearer of the party
next year. The NEWS AND OBSERVER is
authorized to say that Mr.. Jarvis is not
and will not be a candidate for Gov
ernor. Rut land we say this not by
authority but with knowledge Of the
man and his devotion to the party he will
be second to no man in the campaign Of
1896 where the fight is the hottest, con-
tending for the principles and success of
the Democratic party.

TO KEEP ALIVE BAD FEELING.

The Fusion candidate for Superior
Court Clerk and sheriff in the last No
vember election, in Greene county, have
recently brought quo aOdrrGnto suits
against Messrs. John W. Blount and
BENZ. W. Edwards the present incum-
bents of those offices respectively.
We are reliably informed that there is
not the remotest prospect of the com
pIainants establishing their claims to the
offices mentioned, and that they have
instituted these suits at the instigation
of Republican leaders in the hope of
getting up campaign thunder" and
prejudice and ill-will for the needs of
the political contest of next year, and
with the view of thus keeping alive and
active the bond of sympathy between the
two wings of the Fusion element-a
feeling which has been growing ''beauti-
fully less" in that county on the part of
the Populists since the performance Of
the +. Douglass Legislature.

WORSE HERE THAN IN MEXICO.

The Philadelphia Record warns the
people against silver by saying that in
Mexico "the bankers are said to be con-
trolling the finances of the country and
getting rich rapidly under the single
standard" The only difference, then,
between Mexico aud the United States is
that in Mexico "he bankers" control the
finances, whereas in the United States
the job is in the hands of a syndicate of
a few big banks If we are to have
government of the banks and for the
banks and by the banks, it will be better
to let them all, little and big, join in the
control rather than to give it over exclu-
sively to rich syndicate, some Of whom
are not even American citizens.

Few Know About the Shakers.
AN INTERESTING, GOD-FEARING
PEOPLE WHO HAVE GIVEN
THE WORLD MANY I'M
PORTANT DISCOVERIES.

We may not accept their peculiar religi-
GUS beliefs nor can we enter into the spirit
of their sacrifices. 1t is not necessary to
believe as they do, but we can and do re-
spect their sincerity of purpose and the
honor and uprightness which marks all
their business dealings.
The Shakers have always been successful
inventors and some of the greatest of the
conveniences of the present day found
origin in their settlements.
In one particular they eXcelau other men
or classes of men, and that is in the cultiv&-
tiOn of medicinal herbs and plants ana
their preparation for use They have made
it a study for more than a hundred years.
1t is one of their peculiar industries. Their
lives have been devoted to it.
Their latest and greatest achievement Is
the Shaker Digestive Cordial. 1t is not Of
fered as a cure for all diseases. 1t does not
pretend to be, but one disease it viii cure,
and that is Indigestion.
1t is so effective in curing those who use
the remedy that they are loud in their
praises Of it, and in consequence large de-
inand for the cordial has been created.
sufferers who resort to its use have not
long to wait to see the result. The effect Is
almost immediate. The first dose usually
gives relief, and if continued permanent
cure will follow.
1t not only contains already digested
food but it digests food as well, thus toning
up the general system An interesting
pamphlet is now being issued by the Shakers
and can be had for the asking at almost any
drug store.

THE CUBAN WAR.

We call it war, although it is still
treated by all the powers as domestic
affair of which no country can take
cognizance. Spain insists that it is moth
ing more than a riot, and under inter
national law until the insurgents can
get possession of permanent head
quarters, establish a capital for pro-
visional government, they are denied
any manifestations of sympathy or help.
When these patriots obtain such a per-
manent capital their claim for recog-
milton of their belligerency cannot
properly be resisted. From the first we
have hoped they would be able to free
themselves from the dominion of Spain,
and have trusted that their success
would soon enable them to be in posi-
tion to prevent the delivery of the nine,
teen vessels Spain is having built for
their subiugation. Once they have
established a provisional government,
this country would recognize the war
and Cuba would be free,
The New York Times shows that the
"doctored" reports sent out from Cuba
are unworthy of belief, and points out
the gravity of the war by an examina-
ton of the Spanish sources of informa-
ton. 1t says:
"Some time ago it was given out that
the first reserve was to be called out IN
Spain to take the place of the troops sent
to Cuba. 1t appears that this announce
ment means that "the reserve of 1891,
that is to say, the men who have per
formed their term of service with the
colors, is called out to serve again. But
that is not ALL The date set for the con-
scription and the organization of the men
called out to serve for the next two years
is to be advanced. Moreover, the Gov
eminent has offered to remit what re-
mains of the punishment of those sol
diers who are now undergoing sentence
in Spain itself and in North Africa, if
they desire to serve against Cuba, and
they will be incorporated in special
regiment. Pardon is also offered to de-
serters who are abroad and who are
willing to serve against Cuba. There are
more than 800 Spaniards of this kind in
Brazil and Argentina, and arrangements
have been made to transport them to
Cuba. Promises of commissions are
made to non commissioned officers of the
Spanish Army who are willing to be
transferred to the Cuban army.
at will be agreed that these are ex-
IRENE, almost desperate, measures, such
as would not be resorted to except in
war in which the strain was great and
the situation very serious. The vigilance
of the Spanish government over the
shores of the island is about to be greatly
increased, of course to the further in
jury of its commerce, but what Spanish
Viceroy ever cared about commerce ?
The government has decided to have
built in England nineteen vessels for the
Cnban coast guard, including cruisers Of
800 tons, gunboats of 200, gunboats Of
100, and twelve armed launches"

A MODEL MAGISTRATE.

Reversed by the Superior Court.
Chatham Record.
Mr.. John A. Womack was first elected
a justice Of the peace at Pittsboro in
1869, and had held that office contin-
uously ever since until last Thursday, a
period of 26 years During that time be
had tried 1904 civil cases, and about
half that number of criminal cases, max
ing a total of about 1000 cases disposed
of by him, Among all these cases there
were only a few appeals to the Superior
Court, and his decisions We're affirmed
by the Superior Court judges in all these
appeals, except in one case wherein the
Superior Court Judge Kern reversed
him, but in that case, on appeal to the
Supreme Court by this writer, that tri-
bunal overruled the Judge and affirmed
Mr. Womack.
And yet with such an excellent judi
cial record this model magistrate was
dismissed from Office by our late re
