and the cotton buyers on Wilmington
and East Martin streets and the
weighers ar the cotton platform did a
rushing business for this time OF the

The local receipts yesterday
were GO bales. Last year not bale
was offered on this market. The crop
this year il at least two weeks in adj
vance of last year. The crop has been
damaged IS to IS per cent. by the
drought, and the dry weather has
caused cotton to open much earlier
than usual. At the present rate the
entire crop viii be marketed earlier
that heretofore.
Barbee and Company. the we'll
known Wilmington street cotton fac
tors. bought 173 bales of cotton yes
terday. A reporter called at the es-
tablishmept last night and learned
some interesting facts regarding the
cotton situation.
They bought the first bale of cotton
last year, September 9Th. This year
up to this time they have bought sew
eral hundred bales. All the cotton re-
ceived up to date has been of excellent
grad, strict to good middling, and cot

STATE VS.. KITTELLE.
Illegal Sale by Servant Against Mas

ter's Orders-L1aDlllty OF Mdst9i'
The following is the article from the
Law Register Review, which, 1T IS sug-
gested, sustains the ruling in State vs..
kittelle, 10 n. c.:
.sThe Chief Justice of England has
lately held that the proprietor OF
house licensed to sell intoxicating llq-
uors is guilty of an offense under the
licensing act if his servant during MS
absence, and against his orders, sells
TO a drunken person, since the act Of
the servant is within the scope OF ms
employing Commissioners OF romeo

weight of authority in the United
States. Edgar VS.. State, 40 Ark, 500

THE fuhlity of the reasoning on
which this depends is well exposed IN
State VS.. McCance, no Mo-, 39S (lS9@l
and the whole subject is discussed IN
IA Am. L. Mag, $50, 1T may be added,
however, to what is there said, that
the contention of the Chief Justice in
this case, that the act is within the
seopa of the servants employment,
means. if 1T means anything, that the
servant is employed TO sell Illegally
a conclusion which he had no right
TO draw.
"On the other hand, if this is not the
case. then the master was not guilty
The ruling is indefensible on any
ground"
4 legal friend suggests that the ar
ticle condemns the ruling in kitteiie's
case, and also that it does not appear
that the decision Of Lord Russell was
based upon a statute which, as III
North Carolina. requires a guilty
knowledge IN order 10 convict.

TIrad of the Burden.

The people of this country, irrespec- tive of politics, have tired of the pres- ent democratic administration. The workingmen are tired of it because of its tariff policy, which has injured in- dustry, harassed trade, reduced wages, and thrown tens of thousands of them out of steady work. The taxpayers are tired of it because it has been adding to the burden of debt through its bond issues. The farmers are tired of it be- cause they feel the burden of the demo- cratic hard times keenly. And there are shoals of voters tired of it because it has demonstrated that the promises made during the campaign of 1892 were glittering sophistries, which could not stand the test of experiment. They look back and recall that, under the Harrison administration, the country was prosperous. Work was plenty: wages were high; the national debt was reduced many millions. Then Cleveland came in and forthwith money was tied up; work became scarce; wages dropped and the national debt was increased many millions. No won der they desire a change. They realize the error into which they fell in 1892. in listening to the voice of the demo. cratic siren, and they are eager to vote for Mckinley and prosperity.-Toledo Blade.
