WATCH THE ELECTORAL TICKET

Within the past ten days the Repuo-
leans of the North have been claim
inr that North Carolina would cast
It's electoral vote for Mckinley, This
tone Of confidence began just three
DAYS after the Republicans took Kun
Henderson oil their ticket and put
Hal w. Aver, chairman of the leo
Mas marty Executive COMMITTEES, on
the Republican ticket for State Audi
tor As soon as that deal had been
contaminated, Mr.. Holton, Repub-
l;ean chairman. FASTENED TO New York
for n conference with the Republican
National committee. Was there any
connection between the endorsement
of Aver. the departure Of Holton for
New York, and the sudden claim that
Mckinley would carry North Carolina
MIR. Reid. populist poll-holder in For
syth, suggests there was, and asks
Mr.. Aver if in his contract with Hol-
ton. he agreed to give Mckinley the
vote Of North Carolina.
In view Of these things 1t behooves
every silver man in the State to be
extra careful in examining his ticket
~ see that the eleven electors agreed
mon bv the Democratic, Populist and
Silver parties appear properly ON
his ticket before voting it. Here is
the electoral ticket for Bryan and
silver:
Electors-at-Large-- Locke Craig, OF
Runcombe, and II. j. Davis. of New
Hanover.
First District Ralph Rowland, of
Carteret.
Second District-H. f. Freeman. of
Third District-C. r. Thomas, of
Fourth District--W. S, Bailey, of
Nash.
Fifth District William Merritt, of
Sixth District-B. f. Keith, of New
Hanover.
Seventh District-Theo. f. Kluttz,
Of Rowan.
Eighth District-Tyre York, of
Wilkes.
Ninth District-R. D. Gilmer, Of
Haywood.
All daily papers please copy this list
so that the people may become fami-
liar with these names.
A ticket containing the names of only
the FIVE Populists, with six McKin-
ley supporters has been discovered in
one county in the State. Is that the
method to be employed to rob Bryan
and Silver of North Cardinals elector-
al vote? There are other ways in
which fraud can be perpetrated. The
whole eleven Republican electors can
be placed on the Populist ticket; too
many electors may be placed on the
ticket to make it an invalid ballot;
the electoral ticket may be made ille-
gal by rolling it with the State ticket;
the electors may be put on the ticket
from the wrong districts; the wrong
names may be put on from the right
districts; or the ticket dispensers may
be bought outright, or the election of
ficers bribed 1t is known that $685.
900 has been spent to corruptly buy
the State for Mckinley. In what par
ticular method the purchase is to be
made, we do not yet know. Let every
voter who wants to vote for silver, see
to it that the above eleven names are
properly on his ticket.L Lack of extreme
care may enable traitors and tricksters
to get the help of honest silver men
in carrying out their nefarious
scheme to cast North Cardinals vote
for the gold standard and continued
hard times.
Be on your guard, silver men!

LIGHT SUMMER CLOTHING
is IN VERY GOOD DEMAND THESE
DAYS.
But There Is no Such Gain in Iudustriais-
Shoes Have Been Called For But Are
Quiet Nov-Incressed Exports
of wheat.

New York, April 17-Bradstreets to-
morrow will say:
Favorable weather, except in some
Northwestern States, has stimulated the
demand for seasonable merchandise no.
tably light summer clothing. on the
whole, the week presents distinct gain.
There have been fair orders for shoes, but
less Is doing in that direction now, and
leather Is weak, even with production cur
tailed. While prices for cottons and wool
lens are nomlnally unchanged, heavy
stocks of the former hang over the market
and good orders for the latter could prob
ably be placed below nominal quotations.
Silk manufacturers complain of scarcity
of orders. Less business Is doing In iron
and steel than expected after the forma-
ton OF the big steel pool. Mercantile col
lections generally continue slow and i'm
provement In sales OF general merchandise
is relative, as merchants prefer to carry
goods rather than accounts.
Exports of wheat (fiour included as
wheaD from both coasts of the United
States this week amount to 2,0l7000 BUSH
els, against 175,o00 bushels last week,
1886, 900 bushels in the week a year ago,
3,019, 900 bushels in the week two years ago,
and 3963.000 bushels in the corresponding
week of 1898.
Evidence of an increasing volume of
business is found in the total of bank

the cake was a blackened crisp, and To-
the once Juicy piece OF meat was 4 shYivei-
ed morsal In the midst of a gummy dark
brown substance!
She snatched kokh and cake from the
fire, and then, hearing her husband coming
she ran and hid herself in the nearest
thicket of evergreens; for she knew that
when he found not wherewith to appease
the rage Of hunger he would be seized with
more terrible one against her. Listening
while with a 'quaking heart, and catch
ing no alarming sound, but aware instead
of an unaccountable silence, she ventured
forth and peeped into the wigwam. Woksis
sat by the fire eating with his fingers
from the kokh, while his face shone with
an expression of supreme content and
enjoyment. With wonder she watched
him devour the last morsel, but her wonder
was greater when she saw him deliberately
break the earthern pot and lick the last
vestige of Bpoiled crockery from the
shards. She could not restrain a surprised
cry, and discovering her he addressed her:
20 woman of women! didst thou con-
ceivc this marvel of cookery, or has klose-
kur- Beh been thy Instructor"
Being a woman, she had the wit to
withhold the exact truth, but permitted
him to believe whatever he would.
Let me embrace thee!" he cried. and
upon his lips she tasted the first maple
sugar.
The discovery was made public and
kokhs of sap were presently boiling In
every wigwam. All were SO anxious to
get every atom of the precious sweet that
they broke the kokhs and scraped the
pieces, Just as Woksis, the first sugar
eater had done. And that is why there are
so many fragments of broken pottery, and
| so few vessels to be found.

Advantages of the Baltic Canal.

AS regards the commercial advantages
of the new waterway, whatever will be
Germanys gain will to great extent be
Denmnrk's loss. Tho two rivals although
each declaring the best intentions, are
jealousy watching each other. 1t remains
to bs seen whether the attractions at
Copenhagen and the Inducements offered
for vessels to mako uso OF the new free
port will DO sufficient to counterfeit the
rival claims Of the canal. For vessels trad
ing to England from the Baltic there will
be saving Of distance and consequent
gain In time and safety, but to set against
this 1t is anticipated that the improved
waterway will open up market in tho
Baltic ports for the sale Of Westphalian
coal, which, owing to tho difficulty Vt
transit, has not hitherto been able to COM
pete with English coal.
The opening up Of the Dortmund-E Ems
canal, which will be completed noxt year,
will place tho Westphalian ooalfelds in
direct communication with the Baltic and
permit of tho traffic Of vessels Of 500 tons.
The exports Of British coal In 1893 to
Russia amounted In value 10 G770, 148; to
Sweden, 97sS, 67S; to Denmark, f668, 072,
and to the German Baltic ports, $500, 000.
This traffic Is Of great Importance to this
country, not only for its direct benefit In
the sale Of the mineral, but in reducing
the freight of timber and other produce by
providing return oargoes for the vessels
employed. -Longman' Magazine.
