In the death of the venerable gen.
tleman whose name heads this article
Vance county loses one of its best and
most worthy citizens. He died at his
home near Middleburg Sunday night.
His sickness was brief and his death
was shock to his friends. Mr.. Har-
ris was an honorable, upright man,
quiet and dignified in manner, indus
trious and frugal in his habits, and his
life and character were an example for
his fellow-men. He was a farmer and
loved the pursuit of agriculture in
which he was very successful. Mr..
Harris was about "A years old, we

Genius is really only the power of
making continuous efforts. The line
between failure and success is 80 fine
that we scarcely know it when we pass
it-so fine that we are often on the line
and do not know it. How many a
man has thrown up his hands at time
when little more effort, little more
patience, would have achieved success.
AS the tide goes clear out, so it comes
clear in. In business, sometimes,
prospects seem darkest when really
they are on the turn. A little more
persistence, little more effort, and
what seemed hopeless failure may turn
to glorious success. There is no failure
except in no longer trying. There is
no defeat except from within, no really
unsurmountable barrier save our own
inherent weakness of purpose.-Elec'
trical News.

George B. Harris in their double be-

claimed bright and beautiful little
girl aged about three years, and ere
the flowers had withered on the new

form was laid to rest, another precious

anguished. Yesterday afternoon the

little girl one year old, died after a
short but severe sickness of whooping
cough complicated with other troubles.
Both were unusually bright and at

SUPREME LAW.
American Law Review:
Freights and fares on the government
road would be regulated so as to pay a
reasonable profit upon it's actual value,
and corresponding reduction on other
transcontinental roads would necessarily
result. The rights of the government
and the public generally would be Sc
cured, and an enormous incubus would be
lifted from the people of the west. I'm
agination can hardly realize the extent
of the relief that would thus be afforded
to the hard working and poverty OPP
pressed farmers of this territorial divi-
sion of the country, and to the people
generally.
In the history of the human race but
one statesman, in a position Of author
ity. great enough to rise above the i'm
moderate prejudices by which the inter-
ests of wealth and capital are buttressed,
has ever appeared. His policy, though in
conflic: with what are called sound imam
cal principles, in fac. rescued Athens
from the throes OF impending dissolu-
ton, and inaugurated the most happy
and glorious part of her history. 1t has
been approved by all historians; and by

name of the great Seisactheira Tor "shak-

memorated as a great anniversary. The
lesson that it teaches is that the safety
of the people is the supreme law (Salus
Populi, Supreme Lex: and that, what
ever views we may entertain as to the
general expediency of the government S
oDpratino railroads or other industrial
enterprises, they must give way to the
higher principle when necessity demands.
That, in the necessity of freeing the
people of the trans Mississippi states
from practical serfdom, the occasion is
now presented for the application of the
maxim, cannot be doubted. Nor can it
be doubted, if the government proves
equal to it's manifest and imperative
duty, that the acquisition of the owner
ship of the Union or Central Pacific rail
roads by it will be to u.s. as Solon's policy
was to the Athenians, an occasion to be
forever commemorated in our history.

this. so that they may be read during the

texture permits evaporation and cools
the feet. Rubbers should not be worn
except under most exceptional circum-
stances. because they produce tender
