HOLIDAY GOODS.

Christmas is less than one month
off, and already our stores are
filled and Icing packed with holi>
day goods Most of our merchants
have returned from northern cities,
where they have been making
selections of goods suited to the
Durham market. The Durham
merchant is not satisfied that an
article be attractive only; it must
have real worth as well-worth
for service in an article of wearing
apparel or for the household, and
worth for real enjoyment in the
possession of the frailest, daintiest
piece of bric-a-brac. This elimi>
mates the "cheap" mot the low
PRICED and shoddy goods which
frequently flood other markets and
find purchasers among the un-
thinking and careless.
While the great rush of the
Christmas trade will be deferred
for a few days before Christmas,
there are many "forehanded" peo-
pie who will begin at once to do
their shopping, and thus secure
the first choice of the stocks and
avoid the inconvenience of the
rush that is sure to prove annoy
ing later on.
Preparations are being made by
the merchants Tor a big holiday
trade, and a glance at The Recor-
der's advertising columns will
show where trading can be done
to best advantage.
The progressive merchant finds
that by advertising his wares,
telling what he has to sell, the
time Of his salespeople is not USE
lessly taken up, and that at the

be ascribed for any desire to
injure Mr.. Gattls. None existed.
AS far as we can judge this is
the popular opinion. DR., Kilgo
enjoys today as he ever has, the
confidence, respect and love of
Trinity College, the Board of
Trustees and all connected with
the institution. And we are glad
to know that the same can be
said of the good people of Dur,
ham, and of the people wherever
he is best known. AS one star
litfers from another star, so
does one man differ from another
man. DR., Kilgo has been re-
ferred to by one of his best
friends as a steam engine in
pants;" implying that he has an
impulsive nature. Admit this
to be the case and it must still
be admitted that he has evinced
in this whole case a spirit of
meekness, gentleness and mod
Grafton that has commended
him to all admirers of these
qualities which adorn his per-
feet Christian character.
We would not conceal our
sympathies; they are with DR..
Kilgo and Trinity College and
the Methodist Church. We have
faith in them all and claim the
right to fight for their vindica,
ton. We are confident that DR..
Kilgo and the Trustees will be
vindicated. DR.. Kilgo is just
and honest, and would sacrifice
his life for truth and honor; and
certainly the Board of Trustees
is not composed of a set of reps
rebates and villains, as the YER
dict of the Granville county jury
would denote.
P. S.-Yesterday DR.. E. A.
Yates, at the North Carolina
Conference of the NJ. E. Church,
South, now in session at New
Bern. offered a resolution ex"
pressing the utmost confidence
in President Kllgo and Messrs
B. N. Duke and W. R. Odell,
Trustees of Trinity College,
which resolution was adopted
unanimously by a rising vote.

Gattis VS.. KilgO and Others.

At Oxford last week this case
was heard before Judge Hoke,
of the superior court. Mr.. Cat
tbs sued DR.. Kilgo. Mr.. Duke and
Mr.. Odell, as representing the
trustees of Trinity College, for
libel, on account of certain
charges against his character
published in pamphlet issued
by the trustees of Trinity Col
lege setting forth the Clark
Kilgo trial.
The case easily took preced-
ence of all other matters in the
papers and in popular interest.
The issues involved affected
personally more than one emf.
nent citizen, and involved a
great Church. 1t was argued
by leading lawyers of the State.
The jury found against the
defendants and awarded $50, 0C0
damages to Mr.. Gattis. 1t was
appealed to the Supreme Court.
The sympathies Of the editor
of this paper are all with Presi-
dent Kilgo and the trustees of
Trinity. The suit is not against
him personally; but against the
whole Board of Trustees, and,
therefore practically against the
Methodist church. We can not
appreciate the reasoning that
has led a jury to find such a
body of men as the Trinity
trustees guilty Of malicious libel.
We can not but believe that
ultimately President KiIgo and
the Trustees will be indicated.
If there was ever a true, chival.
rous, righteous man, that man
Is President Kilgo, and his
Boarp is above reproach He
has loved the truth and labored
for it; he has loved bis Church
and labored for il; he has loved
the cause Of Christian education
and labored for il; and to crown
all. he has been called upon to
suffer as few men could, IN be
half Of these things. We know
Of no man more capable Of en-
during for the sake Of Right and
Truth than he.
In the conclusion of Governor.
elect Aycock's speech we find
these words, utierted by him in
the shadow OF the great office to
which the people of North Caro-.
lima have called him; they are
not the special pleading of an
attorney, but the deep convic-
tions Of a man whose honesty
no man in North Carolina ques-
tons:

right and proper that the whole
facts as brought out in the trial
should be published and dissent.
mated as evidence to counteract
Judge Clark's publication.
1t was then that they issued the
pamphlet, containing a report Of
the whole trial, evidence and
speeches as reported at the time
of delivery, and taken from the
records without subtraction or ad.
dition. The record was made and
the Trustees claimed the right to
make it still more public by caus-
ing its publication in pamphlet
form for general circulation and
informatlon-as Il necessary vindi-
cation of its President, who had
been severely criticised in the
letter of Judge Clark.
1t is well in considering this
case, pro and con, to.inquire as to
the character and reputation Of the
gentlemen composing this Board
of Trustees. They are eminently
among the best men in the State,
noted for virtues that make up
the best citizenship. Among the
whole long list Of Trustees, Messrs.
B. n. Duke, Of Durham, and w.
r. Odell were singled out in the
suit for damages-because of their
wealth and liability for any
amount Of damages that might be
assessed.
Mr.. B. \. Duke is too well and
favorably known by the people Of
the entire country for US to at
tempt any laudation of his life
work, character or reputation,
His name stands for all that i:
honorable, true and correct in
every relation Of life-in Church
and State, in financial and social
relations. One great aim Of his
life has been the bctterment of his
fellowmen, and to accomplish this
aim he has deemed no labor too
arduous and no personal sacrifice
too great. As a benefactor, his
name stands high in the list Of
those who have contributed most
10 the relief Of suffering and mis-
fortune. In a word, he is every.
where recognized as the model Of
a Christian gentlemen.
Mr.. Odell is a native of Greens
boro, a graduate of Trinity College
and one Of her staunchest friends
and most ardent admirers, both OF
the College and Of DR.. Kilgo, in
whom, as in every individual
member Of The Bard of Trustees,
he has the mort unlimited conf.
dence md greatest respect; and
any reflection upon either was
regarded and treated az a personal
criticism which were unpardop-
able no: to contradict.
