A GOOD SHOWING.
ArdmOre VIII Become a Second Class
office June 80. Under Postal Reeu-
IatIOns-SOme Figures.

From Postmaster Hammer the ARD
MoREITE learns some things con-
cerning the volume of business done
in the Ardmore postofiice which
present a surprising array of figures
which are as follows:
The total amount of reveue from
all sources derived from April /, 1894
to March 81, 1895 was s7119.5O. From
April /, 1895 to March 81, 1895 was
Ss733'46. Increase over last year
s1613.96.
Money orders issued from this
Office from April 1. 1895 to March 81,
1896, were 6,4O7, amounting to over
$40 900; registered letters handled
in transit for other places Alps;
pieces of mail handled for other
offices besides this All ,5s2; letters
registered in this office for other
Offices 1880.
Captain Hammer adds, "any Office
making in revenues from SIS, 900 to
SO 900 per year rated a second class
Office, SO you can say to the citizens
of our town they have grown to be
a second class office; the benefits TO
/ be derived, however from such
classification Will not be felt until
after June 80, the end of the fiscal
/ year. This is an indication that the
croakers who are always saying the
town is not growing is not in it as TO
guessing"
/ Postoffice inspector Frank A.
Beebd who had been here checking
up postmaster Hammers accounts
up to and including April Is, left
yesterday. OF course we do not
know how he found things but it is
safe to say they were IN apple pie
order.

TIMELY ADVICE.

The Wilmington Star of he
Sth has the following timely and
appropriate paragraph, which We
commend to a careful reading by
populist: =
"No fear need be entertained
that any democrat elected to the
legislature will vote for Pritchard
or any other gold-bug for the
United States senate. But not SO
with the populists, some Of the
members-elect being, it is said,
pledged to Pritchard. The popu-
lists should hold meetings in all
the counties that have elected
populist members and instruct
them to vote for no candidate for
United States senator who will
not pledge himself to vote for free
silver if he is elected"

No Landslide.

The following editorial headed
"Bryan Might Easily Have Won" !"
is taken from the Washington
Post of Saturday:
An examination of the figures
of last Tuesdays vote results in
some very curious and interesting
revelations. 1t will be remem-
bered that the Post, from the first,
insisted that Bryan's chances were
good, that at any stage of the cam-
paign his election was a posi-
bility, and that McKinley's cleo
ton, although we regarded it as
highly probable, depended after
all upon 4 very narrow and un-
certain :. .argin. As unanswera.
bic proof that we were right in
this, we now call attention to the
following table, showing how a
change Of little more than $4,000
votes, distributed over nine states,
would have elected Bryan, not
withstanding his big majorities
elsewhere.

Sank With Six of Her Crew.

MUsDEGoN, Mich, Nov. g.
The schooner Waukesha broke
up while trying to ride out the
gale at anchor near here last
night, and only one survivor of
her crew of seven has been res
cued. He is still too weak to
talk. The vessel had a load of
salt and apples, which was
taken on at Manistee Saturday
morning. At 2 o'clock yester-
day morning she was sighted
running with the gale under a
torn mainsail. An attempt was
made to enter Muskegon harbor,
but the schooner dr.fted a mile
south of the piers and then an
chor was dropped. She was
riG.ag the sea about a quarter
of mile from shore at dark.
The engineer and firemen of
the city pumping station
watched the lights until 9
O'Clock last night, when they
disappeared. Shortly afterward
wreckage began coming in, and
oday nothing can be seen of the
ost boat above the water, where
she anchored. All night long
fhe wreckage continued to come
up ON the beach, and five bodies
have been recovered The names
IF the dead cannot be learned,
as nothing about the clothing
will identify them. The surviv
ing sailer was washed ashore
unconscious and nothing can be
learned fror. him.
The Waukesha was one of the
old feet of "canalers," and true
to all traditions she has taken
almost her entire crew down
with her in her last disaster.
She was owned by +. H. Head,
Of Chicago, and was formerly
known as the Nabob. She was
built in Manitowoc in 1864, and
rated 295 tons. She had a valu-
alton of 81, $50, and was given
an insurance rating of Bl. She
had been engaged in the salt
trade between Ludington and
Manlstee and Chicago for Joy,
Morton & Co., all the season.

Foreign Opinions.

PARIS, Nov. French states
men feel intense interest in the
election of Major Mckinley, and
M. Ribot. who recently returned
from the United States and Cana
da, said today:
"The election of Mckinley does
not surprise me. When | left
America at the end of September
it was apparent to me that Bryan
would not succeed. IfBryan had
triumphed over the republicans,
even with the influence of former
democration chiefs, with President
Cleveland at their head, his sue
cess would have had, both from
a political and a social point of
view, the gravest consequences,
Still, to us Europeans, the election
of Mckinley is not altogether
agreeable, for without doubt We
shall have to suffer before long by
a return to an exaggerated pro-
tective policy in the United
States"
ROME, Nov. THE result Of
the election in the United States
was received with joy by large
majority Of the Americans here,
and also with the marked approval
Of the Vatican.

The YNriend Again Seized.

boat yard here with the revenue
cutters Boutwell,, Colfax, and
Window ranged nearby as body

being released at Fernandina on
bond of $500, left quarantine there

ans are looking pleased, while
rumors fly thick and fast Of

Friends left here Friday, towing a
schooner and a barge down the

weighed anchor and steamed of'

YIELDED THE GHOST.

The Democratic press and ex.
ecutiye committees have flung
up the sponge and conceded the
.ele9t'nn of VIM. Mckinley as
chief magistrate of this coun-
try Whether they have done
SO prematurily, the official
count of the returning boards
will determine.
If it be true, as present re-,
ports plainly indicate, that
Bryan has been defeated in the
electoral vote, it is equally true
that this result has been ac-
comDlished by an amount of
bribery and intimidation never
before perpetrated in such large
expenditure of money in this or
any other country.
No matter what may be the
proportion e. the electoral COLI
lege, the official count will
verify the prediction that Bryan
has received y large majority of
the popular vote, and gives
another forcible object lesson
that the president should be
elected by a direct vote of the
people, and not thought this
uncertain agency which of
gives the victory to a minority.
Whatever may be the result
in the state and nation, Durham
county and the 5th district can
consider themselves in the con-
sciousness of duty we'll per-
formed. and in having reaped a
rich harvest from the local po-
litical field, and also in the
reasonable hope that her most
prominent citizen. defeated for
governor bv foul treachery, will
soon adorn the prestige of the
state in the nations senate
chamber, where he will be Of
more worth to humanity than
n the Raleigh chair.
