TURKEY PROMISES REFORMS.

Paris, Nov. 12-At cabinet meeting,
held this morning, NJ. Hanotaux, the
Minister for Foreign Affairs, announced
that the execution of reforms had been
commenced at Constantinople. He added
that all the persons taken into custody
who were believed to be innocent have
already been released, and he confirmed
the advices from Constantinople to the
effect that the official summary Of the
reform, put into execution by the Turkish
government, has been published and that
the provincial authorities have received
instructions to execute them Immediately.
NJ Hanotaux further stated that active
negotiations were continuing to obtain

THE TRUSTS PROSPER FIRST.

During the last week" says the New
York World, ''there has been an advance
of 2 1-3 per cent in the stock OF the Cot
ton Seed Oil Trust, of 6l5 in that of the
Sugar Trust, of 21a for the Tobacco and
Cigarette Trust, S1a for the Illinois Steel
Trust, for the National Linseed Oil
Trust, All for the Rubber Trust and 81
for the General Electric syndicate"
There has been no advance in the price
of cotton, tobacco or land. The prosperity
to do any good in the South and West
must increase the value not only OF the
products of the farm, but the farm itself.
We are not grumbling because the Trusts
are getting the first benefit Of the re-
vival of business. We expected that
when the people voted for a President
who was in league with Trusts. We are
only hoping that all the benefits win not
stop there, but that the crumbs at least
may fall in agricultural sections soon.

The st. Louis Star puts Senator prith-
ard in McKinley's cabinet as Secretary of
the Navy. Isn't it strange that North
Carolina never had cabinet portfolio
except the Navy? Senator Pritchard
deserves well of Mr.. Mckinley, for he
carried North Carolina for him in the
convention, and Topped from a silver
man to a gold man in order to advance
Mckinley interests. The new President
ought to give Mr.. Pritchard anything he
wants, and will doubtless give him a
high seat after he is defeated for the SEN
ate because of his advocacy Of the gold
standard. Mr.. Pritchard's financial record
parallels Mr.. Mckinley. Both talked
strongly for silver until the st. Louis
convention declared for gold. Then they
both began to make light of free coinage
and accept their party's declaration fully.
If Mckinley won on his flop" he ought
by the same token to recognize Pritch-
arts Ase.

PROSPERITY AND MARRIAGES

The Goldsboro Headlight sees signs
of better times ahead in the increased
number of marriages that are daily
noted in the papers. Is it true that there
are more marriages when folks are pros
porous? Is it not rather true that adj
versity makes young people yearn for
companionship? Or, is it not truer still
that marriage is wholly unaffected by the
times? Is it not a fact when a couple
make up their minds to marry they are
in world of bliss, and are not to be
FASTENED by prosperity o. delayed by ad-
versity?
These questions might for a time take
the place of the conundrum, is Marriage
a Failure?" They undoubtedly afford
wide scope for debate in the woman clubs,
debating societies, and the current peri
odicals?
