If Judge Street was to render a de-

No matter what your individual opin-

legislate for the interest Of the COM

committee will present to your honor
able body a petition signed by the
majority of the property owners of
Murphy's addition asking that you
annex said addition as a whole &c. the
city of Phoenix. Now if you are in
favor of annexing this land it will
mean that that property known as the

A carcass on either side would smell

mistake in acting as individuals when
you should have been councilmen. If
the public meeting held some time ago
did not convey to your minds how the
people felt on this subject, you should
call another mass meeting and have
the matter discussed and ask for in

Dana on the Bible.

Charles A. Dana has left on record
this opinion of the Bible:
''There are some books that are alb
solutely indispensable to the kind of
education that we are contemplating
and to the profession that we are con-
sidering; and of these the most in
dispensable, the most useful, the one
whose knowledge is most effective, is
the Bible. There is no book from
which more valuable lessons can be
learned.
81 am considering it now not as a
religious book, but a manual OF
utility, of professional preparation
and professional use for a journalist.
There is perhaps no book whose style
is more suggestive and more instruc-
tive, from which you learn more di-
rectly that sublime simplicity which
never exaggerates, which recountS
the greatest events with solemnity,
Of course, but without sentimentality
or affectation; none which YOU open
with such confidence and lay down
with such reverence. There is no
book like the Bible.
when you get into a controversy
and want exactly the right answer,
when you are looking for an express
sion, what is there that closes dis
pute like verse from the Bible?
What is it that sets up the right prin-
ciple for you. which pleads for a
policy, for a cause, so much as the
right passage Of Holy Scripture?n

Cotton rliIIs Give the Advantage.
(Chatham RecOru.)

The price of cotton is higher IN
North Carolina than in New York and
nearly all the cotton now raised in
this State is manufactured here
This would have seemed incred-
ible few wears ago, when most of
the North Carolina cotton was shipped
to Norfolk and New York, where the
price was always higher than it was
in this State. This change is very
significant and means a great deal.
In the first place it greatly benefits
our farmers, who now have almost at
their doors better market than they
can find elsewhere. Thus, at less
expense and trouble and at higher
price. they can now sell their cotton
to the factories here at home. 1t is
now no longer necessary, as 1t was
formerly. for our farmers to haul
their cotton to some large town for
shipment to the North, paving heavy
freirhts and several middlemen to
handle it. They can now huul 1t to
some cotton mill in the neighborhood
and sell it direct without any extra
expense.
it is therefore to the best interests
of the cotton planter to encourage
the building of cotton mills all over
our State. so rs to have a home
market and stimulate the demand for
their cotton. And of course every
cotton mill creates demand and
makes home market for all other
produce raised by the farmer.

Praises the Press.

(Rich Square Roanoke-Chowan Times.)
Hon. Thomas W. Mason, one OF the
most modest, unassuming and sim
cere gentlemen within the State, one
who has never been known to stoop
to fatterv. paid the Press of the
South high compliment few days
ago. In discussing the cotton sltua-
ton with friends, Mr.. Mason gave it
as his opinion that the farmers were
indebted to the Press of the South for
the advance in the price OF cotton.
He said that the Press had nobly and
fearlessly championed the cause OF
the farmers and deserved the fullest
measure of their gratitude. For not
only. said he. has the Press kept con-
stantly before the public eye the true
condition of the crop, it has also
pointed out clearly the un njust dis
parity in the price OF this great
staple between its raw and manu-
factured state.

Is There an Alliance Against England?
(CharlOtte Observer

For several days the air has been
full Of rumors of a continental al
lance for the purpose of stopping
British ':aggression''in the Transvaal,
the names of Russia. Germany,
France. Holland, Belgium and Austria
being mentioned in this connection.
These reports may or may not be
based upon recent remarks of Dr..
Leyd, the Transvaal agent in Europe,
giving promise of such an alliance
for such a purpose, but it is we'll
nigh impossible to conceive Of a chain
of circumstances as a result of which
Germany and France would make
common cause. Upon this subject
we copy elsewhere a special Wash
ington dispatch to the Philadelphia
Record which discredits this report and
says that in the event Of such COM
bination the United States would
come to England's rescue and give
the world to understand that it must
not make any demonstration pref
judicial TO British interests. This is
what it should do, and why it should
do it is we'll set forth in the following
extract from letter received by the
Obserrcr last night from a gentleman
of large experience and wide OBJ
servation Of public affairs:
Il was abroad last year" he
writes, ..before the war with Spain
was declared, and | was assured by
more than one Frenchman that the
powers would prevent our acting
against Spain. In fact the French
Minister Of Foreign Aaffairs thought
that he had arranged for a combina-
ton to control us. He had. except
the British Government. and Lord
Salisbury's refusal to listen to such
proposal put an end to it. Had
Salisbury shown willingness to
even remain quiet the French fleet
would have stopped our transports
enroute for Cuba. Don't let US forget
it
Speaking of French fleets, late
report is to the effect that France has
ordered several of her war vessels to
South Africa. This and the fact that
England is very active all this time in
naval preparations, give some color
TO the story that a combination Of
continental powers has been formed
against her and that she is preparing
for them. but we prefer to believe
and do believe the statements OF the
Washington dispatch to the Phila-
delphia paper.

fNA EN DOL\Ss
(Nixola Greely-Smith, in New York
WORLDLY
God of the hopeless! LO, we seek
At Thy dread throne a just redress;
Lord, succOr' us, for we are weak,
And strong the foemen who oppress.
In Afrie wiIds our fathers sought
The freedom that their sons enjoy;
In tropic jungles slowly wrought
The homes the tyrant would destroy.
For since his longing, lusting eyes
Heaven caught the glitter of our SOIL
His mission is to civillZe,
And civiliZing, to despoil.
Lord, when our helpless cities burn,
Our rivers red with carnage run,
Let not the mocking heart discern
Thy hand behind the heavier gun!
Heed not, O Lord, the promise glib,
The blunt petition of the strong;
O Thou who Smote Sennacherlb,
Be potent still to smite the wrong.
Behold, their far-famed navies come
Near and more near with every breeze.
Lord, suffer not our martyrdOm,
The ships are theirs-but thine the seas
Hear us. and as in days of old.

CHANGED APPAREL.
Very Naturally the Man Who
Made the Mistake Got the
Best of the Deal.

William A. Nickerson, of North Wal
nut street. purchased a new overcoat
and hat Saturday and wore them the
first time on Sunday At supper time
he entered an East Tuscarawas street
restaurant, hung his coat and hat upon
a rack and sat down to enjoy his meal
When he was prepared to leave the
place his coat and hat were gone and
in their stead he found an old coat and
hat much the worse for wear. Nicker-
son learned that a fellow had gone out
just before him and that probably he
had taken the stuff by mistake. So he
waited about the Barnett house and
about midnight he encountered the man
wearing his clothing and he quickly
turned 1t over to Nickerson. The
stranger stated that he had made a
mistake and did not intend stealing It,
while Nickerson could not believe that
way. No arrest was made.

HOME WEDDING.
Mr.. George Ernest McMurray
and Miss Minnehaha
Daub United.

At noon today Mr.. George Ernest Nc
Murray, of this city, and Miss Mime
haha Daub, of Louisville, were united
in the latter town. The ceremony was
performed by the Rev. ]. j. Leberman,
of the Louisville Reformed church, in
the presence of company composed
of the immediate relatives and friends
Following the ceremony with its at
tendant congratulations and reception
came the usual wedding banquet. The
bride and groom then prepared for their
honeymoon tour and were given a royal
send-off by their assembled friends
The wedding journey included a drive
to Canton where the train was taken
for Cleveland. From Cleveland they
will go to Buffalo by boat, then to AL
bany, down the Hudson by boat to
New York and from there other eastern
points will be visited. The trip will
take about two weeks and upon it's COM
pletion Mr.. and Mrs. McMurray will be
at home to their friends at 707 Summit
street in this city.
The wedding today was not marked by
ostentation, but was one of those de-
lightful, cheerful events pleasing both
to guests and to participants in the nup-
tial contract. Mr.. McMurray is, and
has been for several years, news editor
of the Repository and his amiable dis
position has made him a general ia
forite with newspaper men not only in
Canton but elsewhere. From the first
day that he came from his own beloved
Bolivar, many years ago, and began
work on the old Stark County Demo-
crat, until the present time, he has
never failed to add to his list of friends
and today there are hundreds who will
unite in wishing him all possible hap
piness in his new relations in life. Miss
Daub, the bride, has been a teacher in
the schools of Louisville and is a bright
and accomplished young lady.
