not the CASE we are not as particular
as we should be in setting up a standard
for our public officials. He is a man OF
the purest personal character. He rep
resents that type of character produced
by a long life of usefulness through which
the spirit of the decalogue has been care
fully woven-never with display-but
modestly woven into the every day busi-
ness fabric of life. We all know the
brand
He attended the State University in the
old days (hes not too Old mind you)
when it turned out some of the States
most useful men. He possessed superior
mental endowments which have been
turned largely to business pursuits-be-
ginning as a civil engineer. first on the
old Carolina Central, later in the service
Of the Confederacy, again with the Caro-
lima Central as superintendent, and for
many years since in farming, mercantile
and manufacturing enterprises.
Capt. Everett is a man of large affairs.
He has accumulated a good deal of his
own and is entrusted with a good deal
more. He has accumulated because no
has been a builder. He has nothing that
represents another mans loss. He
dollar What he has is a blessing to
others.
He is one of the largest farmers in the
State. and in this as in everything he
undertakes he is successful. He is
president of the Great Falls Cotton Mill,
one of the Oldest in the State, and is
connected with the most important busi-
ness enterprises in this community
A man couldn't properly fill these posi-
tions and be politician in the most
common acceptation of the word. Yet he
has never known any better than to vote
the Democratic ticket and to support in
other substantial ways the white mans
party.
In the last campaign-the first in which
the Democrats ever won complete vic
tory in this county-when the white peo-
pie came together and determined at
whatever cost to rid themselves of negro
domination Capt. Everett was conscript
ed to run for Clerk of the Court. They
wanted the most popular man in the coun
ty to beat the old Republican leader. en-
trenched behind twenty odd years contin-
uous service in this office, and it fell to
the Captains lot to accept the nomina
tion for this office a position by the
way which he had no desire to fill.
We neglected to mention that he was
elected to the State Senate in 1885, when
he carried the Republican counties of
Richmond and Montgomery.
1t NAV be mentioned incidentally that
Richmond county has never had rep
resentative on the State Democratic
ticket, and that the great sacrifices they
have made to place the county in the
Democratic list may merit some consider
alton, and with such a candidate as Capt.
Everett to offer the State Convention they
have great confidence in the success OF
their present undertaking.
The keys to the State Treasury could
not be in better hands than Capt. Ever
etts
There is not man in the State better
qualified TO discharge the responsible du-
ties of the position than Capt. Everett
We are all for him.

Special to News and observer.)

Goldsboro, n c., March 20.-Bishop c.
B. Galloway delivered a lecture here
last night on THE Twentieth Century
Fund of the NJ T.. Church.
His effort was q mastery one. holding
his hearers spell-b bound for over an hour,
with his strong logic, sublime eloquence
and easy and fluent delivery. After his
Introductory remarks he laid down the
following proposition: THAT all civiliza-
tion and nations are differentiated by
their religion" and then continued to
weave around it statement of facts ana
argument irresistible. He closed with
trilling appeal for education. Education
propelled by Christianity, with its ennob-
bling and purifying influences.
This. he said, was the foundation upon
which our republic was standing.
Things were quite lively around the
mayors court while yesterday after
noon.
Hardy Adam, colored, was before the
court for stabbing young negro boy.
After the conclusion of the trial His

court. The prisoners did not like the idea
of boarding at Sheriff Scott's Hotel"

exit at a window.

the sound of two pistol shots soon brought
the pursued to halt, and he was safely
carried to jail

FOR STATE TREASURER.
Friends Of Capt William I. Everett will Pre-
sent his Name to Democratic Convention.
(The Anglo Saxon.)

The friends of Capt. w. l. Everett have
decided to present his name to the State
Democratic Convention for the nomina-
tion for State Treasurer.
That they will have the unanimous and
enthusiastic support of the section of the
State where he is known intimately, goes
without saying
We are not going to attempt any eulogy
of Capt. Everett. Among those of his
immediate section-those who served
with him in his young manhood in the
Confederacy, and those who have known
him through the years since as friend
and neighbor-it would be a work of sup
ererogation. They know him every inch
a man and every inch true gentleman.
For those whom this may chance to reach
who have not known him personally, We
attempt only bare outline of facts which
mark him as the kind of man State
honors itself in honoring.
And we begin where, too often is it
