have been opened as follows: In West
Raleigh, Brooklyn, Caraleigh Mills,

expense. They have proven a com
plete and gratifying success, and will
be continued during the next year
One teacher was employed at each
school and the total average aggregate

Congress Voted
HEROberts Out
BY a Vote Of 26s 1850. No Three
Wives for Them. They Want
None of Polygamy.

Brigham II. Roberts, Of Utah, was
excluded from congress Thursday Of
last week by the adoption OF the ma
jority resolution by y vote OF PCS to so.
The Affirmative vote was divided as
follows; Republicans, 1866; democrats,
90: populists, 4; and the negative vote,
democrats, AZ; silver republicans, 3;
populists, l. There we're over score
OF speakers, and the closing speeches
on each side were particularly able.
Mr.. Roberts was present throughout
the day, and only left the hall after
the result of the last vote was an
nounced. He said he was martyr to
spasm of prejudice. The text Of the
resolution adopted is as follows:
THAT under the facts and circum-
stances of the case, Brigham H.
Roberts, representatiyc-elect from the
state OF Utah, ought not to have or
hold seat in the house of representa-
tlves, and that the seat to which he
was elected is hereby declared vacant. !"

from the west. 1t Is thought to be fail
in him TO look to the nomination u
an eastern or southern manas his rnn-
ming mate. AS the south furnishes 50
little to the republican party it does
not figure heavily In the discussion.
AFR1RND OF CORPORATIONS.
Ina public way it is said the only
objection to Senator Elkins might be
that he is looked upon as Q friend Of
the corporations, but this, tits points
ed out, would strengthen heticket in
numerous ways, while the presence Of
Mr.. Mckinley at the head Of the ticket
would satisfy those who believe that
corporations should be held down.
Senator Elkins is also said to be very
popular with many organizations OF
working men, and this fact would aid
Ia offsetting his record OF frlendliness
to money concerns.
To be elected Senator from West
Virginia again Mr.. Elkins will have to
make the hardest fight of hislife. The
State is so fixed by Legislative districts
that the republican party has to have
over 5000 majority before 1t can have
a majority in the Legislature; that Is,
a republican presidential or state
ticket might pull through by as much
as S, 900, but this would not elect the
republican legislature. Senator Elk-
ms has twice carried his State under
such adverse circumstances but he
realizes the difficulty of doing this
right along.
LOOKING TO 1904.
Another feature of the whole affair
is that in the play for vice.President
this time the presidential nomination
four years from now comes in. If New
York secures the vice-presidency this
year her chances will probably be less
for the presidential nomination in
1904. Therefore afterall. the nomina-
ton may be allowed to go tosome 9TH
err State. Lieutenant Governor Wood
ruff might make good yice.President,
it is said, but he would not make
presidential timber in four years. If
be becomes yice-president he would
have to stepdownin four years or take
second place on the ticket again with
a new man at the head. Hecould not,
of course, go on the ticket for second
place four years from now II New
York man secured first place ut that
time on the ticket.
Senator spooner declines to say
whether he Will allow his name to re-
main under consideration for the vice
presidential nomination. He is hold
ing of to see what is to be done.

To the people of Harrison county:
There are some cases of smallpox, at
Mt. Glare, in this county, under strict
local quarantine and we advise all Of
the people, in that neighborhood, to
stay at their homes as closely as pos
sibIe and not expose themselves to
danger of Infection. All who have
not been recently vaccinated, should
be vaccinated Immediately, and use
every possible precaution to prevent
the spread of the disease. And if the
people do not heed this notice, it may
become necessary to establish general
quarantine.

A New Candidate.
Senator EIkins Mentioned for the
vice-Presidency.
Very Close To The President
FriendIyto Corporations, but very
Popular With the Workingnen'
Looking to 1904.

At the last meeting OF the special
committee of the republican national
committee having charge of the com.
ING meeting Of the republican national
convention at Philadelphia, the name
ex-senator Stephen B. Elkins of West
Virginia, was openly discussed In con.
nection with the vice-presidential
nomination. This is a fact which has
been learned since the meeting, which
was held at Philadelphia, and around
the fact centers much gossip and
sneculat4on. Since the meeting and
f,he talk about Senator Elkins there
has been more than a little serious
gossip in the Senate among the repup-
lican leaders there. Senator Hanna
himself is understood to have most
kindly feeling for the West virginia
Senator, but believes tnat he makes u
better man for his party on the floor
az the Senate than hewould presiding
over the deliberations Of the body.
DOING NOTHING HIMSELF.
What may come of the talk about
Senator Elkins is hard to calculate,
although it may be positively stated
that. he is doing nothing in the matter
one way or the other. BE really does
not know what he ought to do 1t is
said. His preferences are to remain
in the Senate, but he recognizes the
high honor of the vice-presidency'
which. unless he should secure the
nomination for President In 1904
would crown the elimination OF MS
public career.
Despite the fact that Senator Scott
OF west Virginia committed himself
to the theory of western man, a few
DAYS ago, he would take off his coat
and work Loyalty for Elkins If his col
league should express desire to be-
come vice President. West Virginia
Is one Of the States on which the adj
yocates OF a western and eastern man
could settle as compromise, any
how.
Personally not even Senator Hanna
Is closer to President Mckinley than
senator Elkins, but this fact would
make no difference in the selection of
a running mate If the President were
convinced that a New York or an
eastern man ought to be selected. The
positive statement has already been
made frequently that the President
has made no promises and indicated
no outright preference for New York,
ar any man from that State, but the
majority of public men who know the
president and his ideas believe that
this viii be the Presidents opinion
when the time comes to make selec'
ton. The President himself being
