Start up themilIs and every work
man becomes consumer; start up
the mints for free and unlimited
coinage of silver, at le to l, paid for
by the Government, for the benefit
of silver mine owner, and the re-
suit is starvation to the mill work
ers, taxation to the citizen and ruin
to all. Better not do that business.

The $4,000 farm that the Statesman
speaks of, as a political pointer, car
ries out pretty well Mr.. Bryan
theory as to values. Of course, if
scrip, sbin-plasters, and worthless
Doodle are to be forced on the PEG.
Pile, all values will be reduced. We
respectfully beg leave to disagree
with the Statesman as to the $4,000
farm bringing only $4,000, unless
there are other surrounding circum.
stances. Something wrong some.

their interests affected by publica-
tions of this character. Our wishes

MAJOR MCDONALD AND BERKELEY
SpRINds.-In referring to bis course
on the lease two years ago Major
Mcdonald said be would rather have
the approval OF his conscience than
the approval of the people of his
district. In making the usual mo-
ton to kill the bill Mr.. Mcdonald
unconsciously stabbed the interests
of large portion of the people OF
the county, district and state, and
Oh Satusday last confessed he had
never read the bill. What kind of a
conscience has he got, any how, and
what kind of a legislator is he that
he moves, speaks and votes on a bill
he knows nothing about excepting
from hearsay p Berkeley Springs

BISHOP KEANE'S LOVE FOR
AMERICA.
A recent letter from Bishop Keane,
who is well known here, gives the
particulars of his appointment as an
archbishop, and his acceptance Of
the honor and his choice of remain.
ing in America. On Sept. 28th he
received, through Cardinal Gibbons,
letter from Pope Leo XIII, in
which the Holy Father spoke of his
resignation as rector of the Catholic
University of America, paid high
tribute to his successful career and
beneficial work~for the church, and
showed his due regard for Bishop
Keane's person and dignity by ele-
waiting him to the rank of archbish.
OPP. The Pope also left it to his free
choice whether be should remain in
America or 60 to Rome, and his re-
ply was Characteristic: Thanking
your Holiness for the freedom of
choice granted me, | choose to re-
main in my own country, and, more
over, without any official position
whatsoever, 10 tranquility and peace.'
Choosing his home among those he
knows SO well is accepted by his
friends as a high tribute to their
personal regard for him.

LIVELY AS A CRICKET.

Although in the first instance as
sluggish as a tortoise, the kidneys be-
come as lively as a cricket when a
healthful impulse is given to them
with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a
promoter of activity in these organs
which counteracts a tendency to their
lethargy and disease. Inaction of the
kidneys, it should be remembered, is
the first stage of those dangerous renal
maladies against which the resources
of medical science are too often eX-
hausted in vain. Peril is forestalled
by the use of the Bitters, which averts
Bright's disease, diabetes, dropsy
gravel and the troubles arising from a
weak bladder. Equally ef1icaciOus is
it in checking and eradicating mala-
rial, bilious and nervous ailments,
dyspepsia, constipation and rhcuma-
tism Appetite and sleep are improved
and conyalescence FASTENED by its
benefcent action. Either when
health is slightly or seriously impair
ed, the value of this restorative and
preventive medicine is speedily made
manifest.

LEXINGTON, y. c. Dec. al Spe-
cial. )--Y yesterday was the saddest day
in the closing year for many men, uo-
men and children in Lexington and
the county. for they had TO part. per-
haps forever. from their friend and
beloved physician, DR. Lee Payne. who
left here yesterday morning for his
future home in Norfolk. Va.
Notwithstanding the rain poured
down and the weather was cold, sew
eral hundred of the best citizens of the
town and county went to the depot
to bid farewell to DR.. Payne, his most
estimable and lovely wife and family
Fully one hundred of those present
were in tears when the north-bound
train pulled out from our town.
Had it not been for the inclemency
of the weather there would have been
at least fifteen hundred people at the
depot to bid the doctor and his family
good bye and God-speed
Thus the last of the Payne family
has left the county in which they
have lived and been prominent for
more than three generations. DR..
Lee, though quite young in years, has
attained a higher degree of promi-
nence than any of his noble sires.
The North Carolina Medical Asso-
citation has lost one of its ablest and
most efficient members, the State one
of its best citizens, and Davidson
county a Christian gentleman and
learned physician of whom it was
justly proud.

SOMEBODY HsA LIED.
If Not, There's "a Huge Mistake Some
where.

Referring 10 the rumors printed in
the Raleigh papers that, in view of the
suit to test the legality of the lease of
the Y. G. X. r., all plans looking to
making Norfolk the connection had
been abandoned by the Southern road,
the Greensboro Record says:
'.Only one thing that we have to say
is that if these papers are correct ahen
some exceedingly prominent railroad
officials have lied to the Record We
don't believe they have done this, for
developments are going on in conform
ity with what they have told us. For
instance, several Of the engines to be
used on the Norfolk run are here; of
the fifty men to run on this division
eight came in this morning and more
will follow tonight, although the first
train through to Norfolk will not be
started before January list.
Now it is reasonable 10 suppose that
If it had been decided last week to
abandon all these things that the en-
gines and the men would not have
been sent here.
eve incline TO believe that there is
a lob in view somewhere and that
these Raleigh papers have been made
a tool Of For instance, stocks of the
North Carolina Railroad took tum-
BILE when it was known that the At
torney General had allowed Butler and
his crowd to bring their suit. If they
/. can be forced down TO a low point
somebody can make big speck.
Reports about the abandonment OF
work, etc, will serve to run the price
still lower and then when the suit falls
to pieces as it is sure TO do stocks will

Charges of Gross immortality Bfoush'
Against the President.

GREENSBORO, n. c., Dec. 81
(SpeciaD-At the regular meeting Oh
the board of trustees of the Colofed
Agricultural and Mechanical college,
held last week an attempt was made
to find the cause of the friction which
has existed among the faculty Tor
some time. The result of the investl-
cation was attended with some very
Startling statements from members OF
the faculty. President Crosby was
charged by DIR. j. r. Dillinger, color
ed physician and a member Of the ia
Guilty, with gross immortality. Presl-
dent Crosby brought counter-charge
of seduction against the doctor and
things were very lively for awhile. The
trustees were unable to take any ac-
ton in regard to the matter on ac-
count of the fact that most of the
board had already left for their homes.
1t has been well known that trouble
has existed in the faculty for near
ly year President Crosby has
been very much dissatisfied with the
way the school has been conducted.
He says that nearly all authority has
been taken away from him as presi-
dent, while the other teachers say he
tries to take complete control over
their departments, and countermand
their orders. Charges of immortality
were brought against the president
last year by the matron, who stated
that he had been criminally intimate
with one of the students. The trus-
tees did not think the evidence was
sufficient to warrant dismissal, SO
the matter was dropped. President
Crosby is a bright man and he has
made favorable impression among
our business men. and ii is hoped that
the charges against him will not be
sustained

SATOLLIS SUCCESSOR.
No Importance Attached to the Report Of
Bishop Fsloonio's appointment.

Washington, July NO Importance
is isattached at the papal legation to the
report from Rome that Bishop Falco-
nio will replace Cardinal Satolli as the
papal delegate at Washington. No
information, official or otherwise, has
been received to that effect, and the
report is thought to have no better
foundation than is to be found in the
circumstances that Falconio has lived
in the United States and speaks the
language with certain proficiency.
Cardinal Satolli will not return to
Rome until his successor has been ap-
pointed and confirmed in his new dig
nifty. 1t is regarded as unlikely that
the pope will make the appointment
before September next, inasmuch as it
is not desirable that the change should
be made during the heated term, but
later in the autumn and upon the ap-
proach of cooler weather
