London, March 1.-THE Dublin cor

graphs a story, which is taken in all
seriousness by the police of that city,
who are greatly exercised over the
prospect of a raid by Irish-Americans.
1t appears that the Dublinites are 60

Plotting a Revolt.

Galatz, Roumania, March 19.-It is
reported in Greek circles here that the
Greeks in Constantinople, of whom
$4,000 are we'll armed, are plotting a
revolt against the sultan's government.
The report says that advantage is be-
ing taken of the fact that apart from
the sultan's body-guard there are few
Turkish troops at Constantinople, all
available forces being sent to the
Greek frontier, and that in the event
of an uprising at Constantinople it
would be impossible TO recall the
troops from the frontier in time to
make them effective agailst a revolt
Recently large body Of Greeks left
here ostensibly for Greece, but it is
now said that their real destination
was Constantinople.

METAL AND COTTON.

The metal and cotton schedules
are in a large part the same as in
the present tariff, the increase
above those rates being in the more
advanced articles. Manufactured
lumber, which was put on the free
list by the tariff of 1894, has been
transferred to the dutiable list as
an act of justice to this large in
dustry and in the interest of reve-
nue., with little change in duties ex-
cept white pine. which has been
restored TO the duty of 1883.
The president is authorized to ne
gotiate with countries exporting ar
gols, chicle, champagne, brandy,
sugar, wines, mineral waters,
paintings and statuary and silk
ciprocal and equivalent concessions
in favor of the products of manu-
facturers of the United States.
It is believed that this extension
of the reciprocity policy of the tar
If of 1890, strengthened by the ten
ders of lower duties as a conces-
sion IN return for equivalent con-
cession, will result in even more
commercial advantages than those
that were received under the act
of 1890.

ports under the proposed tariff bill,
if enacted into law, would be the
same as the imports in the fiscal

the bill would yield, if it should be
enacted into law, compared with
the revenues obtained under the

THIS is FOR YOU

One of the greatest boons that ever
science gave to humanity was the dis
covery Of DR.. Edward Jenner. Since
then the death rate Of victims from
smallpox, one Of the plaques and curses
of the human race before Jenner's day,
has gradually fallen until it ceases to
be one Of the greatest death producing
diseases. Vaccination has indeed
proved a vast blessing to the human
family. But for the indifference, the
culpable carelessness of the people the
disease would have disappeared alto
breaks out here and there with fatal
results from time to time, and many
people are exposed to it's attacks who
have been vaccinated, but have vario-
old instead of the more viruient dis
ease. We have known people in North
Carolina-we knew three at Oxford,
one dying-who neglected to be vacci-
mated while exposing themselves to the
disease. The preventive is at hand
that will give you immunity and per-
haps save your life. Let every person
in Wilmington-young and old and Of
both races-be v%accinated who has not
been v~accinated within ten years. Try
it again. This ought to be done here
and every where in the state. It is
strange, when one reflects, how careless,
thoughtless people are acout this. It
is a positive duty that should not be
shirked. We are reminded Of his see
ing an editorial in the Atlanta Journal
relative to the vaccination in that city.
Perhaps it may add force to what we
have written by copying this:
Every man, woman and child in
Georgia should be vaccinated. Those
who were vaccinated years ago and
Therefore consider themselves safe
should be vaccinated again.
1t requires only a few moments time
to mak sure your protection against
one Of the most dangerous and most
loathsome of diseases. Thousands of
persons have been vaccinated in Allan
ia this year, but the good work should
go on until as far as possible, the entire
population is inOculated.
Not in the cities alone is vaccination
important. 1t should extend to the
towns and rural districts as well, fol
smallpox is most dangerous in such
places, because, as a rule, the facilities
for treating it are not so good there as
in the cities, and there is no telling
where the disease may appear.
This is the season most favorable tc
it's transmission, and the duty of vac
cination is imperative"

The Dispatch says General Maury il
zone OF the most charming reconteurs
thai we know Of. And. with charac-
teristic modesty, it is not his own X
ploits that he delights to relate. but
those OF others" We would like to
hear the address. We knew General
Forrest personally. We rave not
doubted since the middle OF the war
ttt1t he was beyond all comparison the
foremost leader in cavalry that the
great war developed on either side. He
was incomparably superior to any cav
alryman on the southern sfde-Morgan,
Stewart, the Lees or ANY others. In
General Bradley T.. Johnson's very in
teresting volume on h great soldier.
General Joseph E. Johnston, he says
that General Johnston said to him that
General Forrest was the greatest SOL
der in the war. This is a very high
opinion from a very competent source.

feast to be spread in the hall of the
Lee camp Of confederate veterans:
General Maury knew Forrest init
mately, and served with him in sew
eral campaigns, and is. therefore. thor
Oughly qualified and we'll entitled to

derful successes. The admission fee to
be charged is Insignificant, when we
consider the occasion, which enables us
to e a most distinguished general
do honor to n Of the most brilliant
lights that ever appeared above our
confederate horizon"
We once hoped that General Forrest
was born in North Carolina, but he
was a grandson and not a son. Cen
eral Zollicoffer, of Tennessee, was born
IL Halifax county, North Carolina, as
as General Ben. Mccullough. General
Leonidas Polk was another North Car
Gilman as vas General Braxton Bragg,
classed as from other states. General
Forrest was physically a fine specimen
of a man., and a ~pacificator in peace as
he was a stOrm-cloud in war. We have
written Of him before, and will not re-
peat two incidents in his life at Mem
phis where we knew him in 1868. THAI
he was a far greater genius in war
than he is generally held to be, we most
steadfastly believe.

An educational qualification is in
order in North Carolina. If all voters
must be able to read and write it will
stimulate the educational movement,
and cause the whites to be as active in
education as the negroes. The negro
illiterates are thought to outnumber
the whites by some 19, 600. 1t is really
highly di~screditable to North Carolina
that in A. D. 1897, there are $1,000
white electors who can not read their
ballots. There have been common
schools in North carolina from about
1S46-fifty- one years ago.. With this
lower state education it seems that

That must be an important over-es-

corr in North Carolina sent out by the

per acre. That is three times more than
it should cost. Think OF c~ultivating
land that grows two to three barrels an
acre that will fetch about $1.50 a barrel.
and costs $500 to produce it. The
farmer would do better to go-a-fishing
or sit round the country store door

that produces less than six barrels Of
corn to the acre il it is to cost him $500
