A BIG DONATION.

On November End, Mr.. Rockefeller
wrote to DIR. Goodspeed, financial agent
of the Chicago University, that he
would give one million in cash to the
University if like sum should be
given by others on or before January
LIST, 1896. Now that Mis- Culver, of
Chicago, who inherited fortune of
three millions, has given the necessary
one million, Mr.. Rockefeller says that
the story of her donation is rot" and
refuses to pony up. But President
Harper says it is genuine, and Mr..
Rockefeller will have to plank down
his million or publish that his offer
was made for 'buncombe.'
Two million dollars from two people
IN one year for the endowment of
University is unprecedented
1t is but justice to Mr.. Carlisle to
say that he tried TO get the last Con-
gress TO pass an act that would permit
communities and States to issue money
to take the place of the Treasury notes
he wants retired. Neither he nor the
President renews that recommends
ton now. The plain, bald proposition
is to contract the currcncy-to protect
the Treasury by further reducing val
ues and increasing debts. The country
needs financial reform, but to carry
out the present recommendation
would be like jumping out of the fry
ing-pan into the fire.
The decadence of the Ohio Democ-
| racy is best seen by contrasting the
| methods of Brice with the boast Thur
man often made in his old age that he
never spent a cent for nomination or
| TO influence votes in canvass for him
| self. Brice's boast would be that he
never secured n nomination or a vote
| except by the use of money.

HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF

The recent defeat of the Democratic
party has had tendency to discour-
age some Democrats. and TO utterly
dispirit those who are not well ground
ed in the faith.
after the disaster that befell the
party in the Greeley campaign the dis
enlargement and disgust were such
that disruption seemed imminent. In
Ohio movement to declare the Dem
ocratic party officially dead and to
build another party with new name
took shape. There was a meeting of
prominent Democrats who were ready
to launch the new party, but before
making the formal announcement it
was decided to send committee to see
Judge Thurman and to secure his CO.
operation. He received the committee
in his little unpretentious 10X12 office,
heard them patiently, and after they
had finished their long statements, ar
guments, and predictions the Old Ro-
man sat for while apparently lost in
deep reflection. When he came 10
make known his position he did not
reply to anything that had been urged,
but dismissed the subject and the com
mittee with this reply: Gentlemen,
this room is too id small to break
up the Democratic party in" The del
egation was offended, withdrew,
launched their new party, and saw it
die like flower willis in the sun.
Four years later the Democratic par
ty elected a President and carried the
House of Representatives by an inn
mense majority, justifying the wisdom
of Mr.. Thurman's memorable reply.
History repeats itself. The boastful
Republicans and Populists and the
weakened Democrats will find that
the Democratic party cannot die so
long as the people believe in govern
ment of the people by the people for
the people

JUDICIAL CLOWNS.

III to this time we have made no
editorial comment upon the behavior
of Judge w. 5 OBJ. Robinson while
holding court in the Twelfth district.
1t turns out now that the first pub
lished statements are corroborated,
and his only defense for his unbecom-
ing conduct is that he meant no dis
courtesy, and alleges that he placed
cotton in his ears while Mr.. Elias was
speaking, as a joke
The people of North Carolina have
not been accustomed to elect end men
and comedians to the bench, but in
these days of reform" we have buff
foons and clowns on the bench to take
the place of grave and learned jurists.
The people who elected unfit men to
high judicial position ought to hang
their heads in shame, and go and beg
the men who disgrace the ermine to
resign to prevent the further huniilia-
ton of the good sons of the old State.

CONDITION OF THE TREASURY

In his report to Congress Secretary
Carlisle is wise in making prominent
the fact that if the income tax provIs-
ions had not been declared unconstitu-
tional, the laws in force would have
given the Treasury surplus of nearly
500 100000. Because of this decision
and the unexpected falling off in the
receipts from the internal revenue
deficit of $17,000,000 may be expected.
4 more just system OF taxation than
and whenever Republicans point to an
empty Treasury, the truthful and I'M
biased citizen will show that it's condl-
ton is chiefly due to Republican eN-
travagance and to an unfortunate de-
cision of the Supreme Court, which de
cision the Democratic Congress could
not foresee. The cost of supporting
the government was eleven million dol
lars less than for the previous year,
showing that the Democratic Con-
gress, incompetent as it is said to have
nCen. Bul Il StCIi W iittlI MUM N~NtA'h'"
gaynce begun by the Reed Congress.
The only pity of it is that the Demo
Gratis did not follow the Sam Randall
policy of rugged retrenchment.
The cash balance in the Treasury
on the first day OF December was
SIT. 400, 3S6.G2, being $9S,072, 5000 in
excess of the actual gold reserve ON
that day, and $77 acc. 3S6.62 in excess
of any sum that it would be necessary
to use in replenishing that fund in
case the Secretary should at any time
be able to exchange currency for gold
There is. therefore, no reason to doubt
the ability of the government to dis
charge all it's current obligations dur
inc the present fiscal year, and have
large cash balance at its close, without
imposing additional taxation in any
form on the people'-this quotation
contains the git of Secretary Carlisle's
exhaustive report.

BILL NYE ON HENRY BLOUNT.

We do not know what Henry Blount
paid Bill Nye for the column write-up
in the Nye syndicate last week, but it
was worth at least 500. We make
room for one extract:
For some months past there has
been phenomenal hegira of bridal
couples from all parts of the country
toward Wilson, n. C., and every one
who contemplated anything in the con-
nubial line has seemed determined TO
reach Wilson for that purpose.
;sRecently the cause of this great
rush for Wilson has been discovered.
The Mirror, published there has two
editors, one plain editor, but. the
other literary editor. This latter
gentleman, as word painter, grainer
and shellacker, when feeling first rate,
can command large font of display
type and put on more frills and clothe
plain statement in more pink tarla-
tan and hemstitched and hand en-
broidered lingerie and advertisement
and futed and freshly Numbered deli
catessen than any man south of Mason
and Dixon's justly celebrated line"

Speaking from the secular point of
view, it is apparent from the action
and the spirit of the Baptist State Con-
Vention at Greensboro that the Bap-
lists in North Carolina are determined
TO persist in their opposition TO State
aid to higher education. Their princi-
plies are behind their opposition, and
they viii cling to them. 1t is worthy
of note in this connection that gen
tleman of Virginia declared to the Con-
senton that the same principles are
finding Judgment in the minds of the
people of Virginia; and also that the
recent Constitutional Convention of
South Carolina emphatically refused,
after great struggle, to accept an
amendment contrary TO these princi-
pies. 1t is now characteristic of the
average Baptist in North Carolina that
h- is opposed to State aid to higher
I, '.;cation; and misrepresented though
he !.as been, as seeking the destruction
of institutions, he is not the less sure
of the business of his contention or the
ultimate prevalence of his principles.

other denomination. He stopped sew

day, riding along. he was oyertaken by
the young preacher and they began TO
talk. Mr.. Tillett told him he had heard
him preach three or four times and
wanted 10 be candid with him. He
said: j do not believe that the man
who prayed your prayers could make
those sermons. The young preacher
bowed his head in shame and, blush
ing. admitted that he had been preach
ing other peoples sermons. We may
not doubt from the honesty of the con
fession that there was hope for the err
ing young fellow and that he 'mcnded

While the situation does not require
any legislation for raising additional
revenue by taxation at this time, it is
such as to require the strictest econ
omy in appropriations and public ex-
penditures. At time when the peo-
pie, upon whom the expense of sus-
tanning the Government is imposed,
are compelled to practice the closest
economy in their business and domes-
tic affairs, in order to meet their obi
cations, and re-establish their trade
and industries, it is more than ever the
duty of the public authorities to avoid
waste and extravaganza in the appro-
priation and disbursement of the
revenues.-Se rotary Carlisle.
