THE WILMINGTON TROUBLE.


The whole State was relieved last
night when the news came over the
wires that the Republican officials, VINO
had abundantly proved their incapaelty
to govern the States chief city, had ac-
cepted the advice of the business men
and resigned their positions.
The character Of the resolutions adopt
cd by the Wilmington mass-meetlng
made 1t clear that the only way to give
Wilmington good government and re-
store quiet and give a feeling of safety
was to put men in charge of the city gov
eminent who could govern.
For more than year, Wilmington has
had no government. What has passed
for government has been little short of
anarchy. One hundred burglaries in an
hundred nights, insults to ladies on the
streets, and a general spirit of un-
checked lawlessness brought about con
dition that was intolerable.
That rule has now been ended. There
is not Il good citizen of Wilmington or
the State who does not regret that the
change from no government by fncompe-
tents to good government by competent
men was attended by riot that resulted
in the loss of human life. From hundreds
of homes in North Carolina to-day pray
ers will go mp that quiet, peace ana
concord may rest upon the chief seaport
of North Carolina, and that never again
in North Carolina win the people of any
city have to pass through another period
like that in Wilmington on yesterday.

THEY WILL BE REMEMBERED
Chatham Citizen.

One result Of the great Democratic
victory in North Carolina will be the
passing away of the Populist party in
this State, just as it had already almost
ceased to exist in all the other South
ern States. And for the destruction OF
the Populist party in this State its
selfish and unprincipled leaders are re-
sponsible. They used that party
and tried to use ''both the old parties
for their own promotion and for the
selfish advancement of their personal IN
terests. They were ready to trade OIL
or sell out, the Peoples party to either
of the old parties, and finally succeeded
in selling out to the Republican party

Ex-Governor Sheldon Tells
Political Truths
Tersely.
Last Nights PoIitaI Meeting
a Republican Vote
Winner.

The first republican address Of the
year was delivered in Deadwood last
hight. There have been several adj
dresses to the people from those of the
opposing side in politics, but last night
was the first time a republican has lift
ed his voice in this city during the
campaign and it was by a gentleman
who was for four years the chief x e
cutiye OF the state-ex-Goyernor Chas.
ii. Sheldon.
The meeting was preceded by the
mandolin orchestra. MI. George v.
Ayres. chairman Of the county central
ctmmitte. then cali"l the meeting to
order. and in a few words introduced
the speaker. Mr.. Sheldon started out:
Politics Is the science of govern
lnent. which none of us can understand
.oo we'll. It carries with 1t the PROPOSE
ton that each of US must nave his own
political opinion. Another is that when
we go to the polls we should each vote
that ticket whose principles as ex-
pressed in platforms and standards CO.
ircide with our beliefs. and must see to
1t that there are men 70 represent our
particular phase who. we think. will
best execute that principle. We Of
South Dakota have had a queer kind of
politics for a number Of years. Last
spring a body of men met in Aberdeen
and named men for whom they are
asking the suffrage Of the people. This
bodyof men was made up Of three par
ties, and II any of them are to be be-
lieved. they were not agreed upon but
one proposition. Their actions compel
ua to declare with the eminent French
man. who once remarked that language
was made to conceal thoughts.
The democrats Of South Dakota
ave never embraced the populists.
Ecr have the populists embraced the
democrats. Those who call themselves
free silver republicans profess to have
no sympathy with the populists and
democrats except upon che silver issue,
but the tire parties have aAr.sd to pre-
sent a Joint ticket. They only want to
control the congressman and the seven
other onlces Of the state. rather than to
follow out the science Of government.
LET each Of the voters inquire for
himself, wherein am I to be benefited
by this?' The science OF politics Is Of
no concern or value to the majority Of
the followers Of the three parties, but
the chief aim Ii the destruction Of the
republican party. Let us consider: Peo-
pie are told that the questions which
have been under discussion are no
longer at issue. I believe It 10 largely
true, and the silver and tariff questions
hsvs scarcely been mentioned on the
east side Of the river this tall. But our
senior senator still denies that the sill

claim that the tariff with which the

How to Drink Water.

There are few people, we think, who thoroughly realize the value of water as a beverage or who know how to oh- tain the greatest advantage from it. The effects produced by the drinking of water, as pointed out by our excellent contemporary, Health, vary with the manner in which it is drunk. If, for instance, a pint of cold water be swal- lowed as large draft, or if it be taken in two portions with a short interval between. certain definite results follow effects which differ from those which would have resulted from the same quantity taken by slipping. Slipping is a powerful stimulant to the circulation, thing which ordinary drinking is not.
 During the act of slipping the action of the nerve which shows the beats of the heart is abolished, and as conse- Tuence that organ contracts much more :apidly, the pulse beats mere quickly and the circulation in variousMparts of the body is increased. In addition to
 his, we find that the pressure under which the bile is secreted is raised by the slipping Of fluid. And here is point which might weil'be noted by our read ers:
 A glass of cold water, slowly slipped, will produce greater acceleration of the pulse fer time than will a glass of wine or spirits taken at draft. In this connection it may not be out of place to mention that slipping cold water will often allay the craving for alcohol in those who have been in the habit of talk ing too much of it and who may be en- deavoring to reform, the effect being probably due to the stimulant action of the slipping.

MATES OF GREAT MEN.

ives Were Brave.
 Once when Gladstone was making ar outdoor speech it began to rain. Quietly Mrs Gladstone, with her sweet, moth erly face, and who always accompanied her husband, stood up, and, opening 2 domestic looking umbrslla of the GamI species, held it over him. The spectacle which the old couple presented thers standing together was so touching and appealed so thoroughly to the good feel ings of the crowd, because of the strik- ing picture of Darby and Joan domes- ticity, that when burly costermongsr. who had been loudest in his catcalla and hooting of MT. Gladstone up to that moment, suddenly shouted, 'Thres cheers for the grand old woman !'' every one responded with will.
 Lady Beaconsfeld showed similar de- votion to Gladstone's great rival on more than one occasion. She, too, was devoted to her husband, and many old parliamentarians recall the story of how after having had her hand terribly crushed in the carriage door while driv- ing down to the house of parliament with Disraeli she refrained from utter. ing 9 cry or from saying a word about her injury lest his mind should be divert ed from the great and important speech which he was to deliver that night. It was not until, he reached homesand found the doctor at her bedside that he was made aware that she had sustained any hurt.-New York Herald.

A Perfect Performanoe,

At 8 variety entertainment given in aid of popular institution one of the "turns" was a ventriloquist. As this gentleman was recognized as one of the cleverest members of his profession. his appearance was looked forward to with much interest. At last it came. The stage attendants carried on to the stage three dressed figures, seated in chairs, as usual. The professor followed and then went through an astonishing perform ance. No one could detect muscle of his face move during the Imaginable dia- logues, and the changes of voice seemed marvellous.
 On retiring the applause was deafen- ing, and the ventriloquist had to return again and again to thank the audience for their appreciation. A couple of min utes or so after, when the audience were talking among themselves as to how it was done, they were thunderstruok to see the three figures get up from the chairs and walk off the stage also, but on realizing how completely they had been ''sold" the laughter was uproari- ous.
