FOOTBALL INCIDENT CLOSED.

We dare not make any reflections a
gainst football, and we are not properly
equipped to make any reflection on foot
ball But we may venture to state that
the season is over for this year In the
midst Of the hieroglyphic account Of the
games given elsewhere, we were happily
enabled to freeze on to that triumphant
fact
These remarks are not made in any
spirit Of envy for, at the outset, we con-
Tess ourselves physically outclassed not
only by the quarter back, but by only an
cighth-ba for that matter 1t is not
impossible that we may some day find our
noblest achievement to lie in the father
hood Of a right-tackle, when we may
change our views to accord with the
Opinions of n philosopher"
But, for the moment, we rejoice that
the boys will be back to their books
and that there is only one disastrous
accident to record
The Carolina boys come back under
defeat that may make them all the
more Jealous next year toward finer con-
dition. The special story Of the game
elsewhere gives them ample material
with which to console themselves. But
they did their best, and should not suffer
evil consequences, if only they come out
victor i'm the vital game whose score
next commencement will be remembered
and valued when the defeat of yesterday
will have become but an unimportant, if
rollicking memory.

BE THANKFUL IT IS NO WORSE

1t is highly probable that Rev. Mr.
Norman had the Democrats in mind yes
terday in his excellent Thanksgiving ser
mon when he related the story of King
George, who commanded the keeping of
a day Of thanksgiving at the termination
of the Revolutionary War, and could
give no reason why the British should
be thankful except that ''it might have
been worse" 1t was doubtless this spirit
that caused the disappointed, though not
dispirited, Democrats to join in yesterday
in the pleasures and services of Thanks
giving day.

TO NEGROIZE THE EASTERN
TOWNS

1t is announced that certain Bepubli-
cans will give notice that application
will be made to the next General Assem-
bly, to change the charter of the city Of
Raleigh. An attempt was made during
the session of the Legislature to so
change the charter as to give the abso-
lutte control of the city over into the
hands of the negroes. The public is
familiar with the causes that defeated
that measure, and the people of Raleigh,
as well as the other cities which were
saved from negro domination, know
that but for the refusal of certain Popu-
lists to join with the Republicans in Civ
ing the negroes the control of our East
ern towns and cities not one would have
escaped negro rule.
The Republicans this year believe that
they can force the Populists to vote with
them for complete and full negro domi-
nation and in all the Eastern towns they
are arranging to have bills to amend
the charters introduced. BY reason OF
his large influence, Judge Russell got a
bill through the Legislature changing the
charter of Wilmington. Result: 4 negro
city clerk and negro policemen galore.
This is the condition the Republicans
would bring about in every town in the
State if they could. There are reasons
to believe the Populists chosen to the
Legislature will draw the line at turning
the Eastern towns and cities over to abb
solute negro rule.
