POLITICAL CHANGES.

Since THE DEMOCRAT last greeted its
readers Dec. 10Th, there have been
some changes in the political situation
OF the country. One Of the most STIR
ring events was President Cleyeland's
special message to Congress concerning
the disputed boundary line between
British Guiana and Venezuela. The
President declared that Great Britain
had refused to arbltrate, and applied
the Monroe doctrine in his recon-
mendatlOns to Congress-
He recommended the appropriation
of 100000 by Congress to defray the
expense Of commission to be appoint
ed by him to ascertain the line in dis
pute. Both houses of Congress con
Cured in passing a bill for the appro-
prlatiOn. II has been given out that
the President has appointed Edward J.
Phelps of Vermont, and Robert T. Lin
coin, Of Illinois, both ex-mlnIsters to
England. lie will appoint another on
the commission There was a little
breeze that smacked of war few days
but that has all passed away. There
will be 10 war.

Mr.. Ii. c. Olive, of Apex, said re-
Gently that the agricultural interests Of
that community have been as we'll
kept up FOR the past ten years and have
paid as we'll as IN any par. of the coun-
try All the farmers there have money,
many new homes have been built
and many % the young mea can not
be hired to leave the farm. There are
good scbool-houses and churches and
everything Is in a prosperous condl-
ton. Tobacco crops have been good
and that has had much to do with the
thrift OF the community.

4 gentleman OF mucn observation

PEARSON.

Mr.. Pearson (Republicau) comes
from the Ninth District, and readers OF
the Dispatch during the hot political
fight in North Carolina last winter will
doubtless recall the persistent and sue
cessful attempt Of Mr.. Pearson to have
Mitchell county taken out OF Linney's
district and put into his. Pearson was
elected by only 135 majority, and as
many think, he is a congressman more
Tor the social fun and distinction OF the
thing than for any great mark he can
make, it was quite natural for him not
to get himself into fashionable Wash
ington harness until he had by the ad-
dition Of more votes, added thus to the
probability OF his return. But it seems
quite likely in the minds of some III.
telIigent Democrats that his next re
turn Will be a return home. For the
majority in his district was reduced to
1875 from that of several thousand to
the Republican who preceded him,
whereas Linney had converted 1000
Democratic into 5000 Republican
majority.

There is more Catarrh IN this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable. For
a great many years doctors pronounced
1t a Iacal disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly falling to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it lncurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional disease,
and therefore, requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manu-
featured By +. J. Cheney & Co, Toledo,
Ohio, is the only constitutional cure
on the market. 1t is taken internally
in doses from 10 drops to teaspoon
full. 1t acts directly on the blood and
mucous surfaces Of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails to cure. Send for circulars and
testimonials. Adress, T. j. CHENEY &

SKINNER.


Harry Skinner, elected as Populist
from the First District, has thus far
distinguished himself mainly by voting
for the tariff bill, thus putting an add
tiOnal burden on cCttOn-t ties and Tag
ging, for which, 10 doubt, lie Will find
il hard to make answer to his constit-
uents.
Stroud, (PopulisD. from the Fourth
District, has voted consistently with his
party, and seems to be doing the best
he can, which, however, in a body of
congressman, can hardly be said to be
very luminous with promise. But he

North Carolina Delegation.

The Washington correspondent to
the Richmond Dispatch Sunday Dec.
%, gave the following pen photograph
Of North Carolina Congressman now al
Washington
To take a running glance at the
North Carolina delegation, it seems to
be the prevailing opinion, all politics
aside. that Llnney, Republican, from
the Eighth District, has attracted thus
far the greatest amount Of attention OF
the nine from the Tarheel State. He
drew sharp notice to himself, when, on
Thursday, he asked question by way
Of protest against the rule shutting off
the debate on the tariff bill at ) o'clock.
Thus it may have happened that he
alone was sent opt by the press dis
patches as having voted against the
gag. But Skinner, from the First,
and Stroud, from the Fourth, both
Populists, voted also with the Demo
Gratis against the rule.
Linney is undoubtedly beginning to
develop symptoms Of thinking for him.

uneasiness, and should he persist in his
Independent course it is quite likely
that he Will be returned TO his seat by

Spears, who was Republican national
delegate in the famous third-term
