North Carolina will make a credtable
exhibit at the Paris Exposition
1t will not be as large as that of some
other States, but it will be fairly repre-
sentative of the State and its resources.
Mr.. T. X. Bruner Secretary Of tho
Board of Agriculture, will have charge
of the exhibit. spending sometime in
Paris just before and during the opening
of the Exposition.
He will sail from New York for Paris
on Wednesday,, March 28th, and remain
as long as he may deem it necessary for
the interest of the State exhibit that he
should have personal direction of it. He
expected to have left here next week for
Paris, but the destruction of his resi-
dence by fire last Sunday has made
postponement necessary
To defray his expenses on the trip the
board has appropriated $3.50 The cost
of transportation alone will be $325-or
$3.50 there and $175 back. This differ
ence is due TO the fact that steamship
lines have rising scale of prices, SIS
each sailing, till the middle of June.
The entire amount expended for the
exhibit to be made by this State, eXclu-
sive of that for Secretary Burners trip,
has been 81 100. But the exhibit is quite
as large and more representative than
that of many of the States which have
spent three or four times this amount.
1t is matter for congratulation that
the exhibits were all packed, forwarded
and at the wharf, ready for loading on
the government transport, before the
date set by the National Commission,

cases.
The total number of specimens that
will be shown amounts to nearly 1 400

It is very hard to stand idly by and see our
dear ones suffer while awaiting the arrival of the
doctor. An Albany On. " dairyman called at
a drug store there for doctor to come and see
his child, then very sick with Group. Not find
ing the doctor in, he left word for him to cqne
at once on his return. He also bought a bottle
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, which he hop
ed would give some relief until the doctor should
arrive. In few hours he returned saying the
doctor need not come, as the child was much
better. The druggist, Mr.. Otto Scholz says
the family has since recommended Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy to their neighbors and
friends until he has a constant demand for it
from that part of the country. For sale every

Navigation has opened on Lake Bennett.
The honor of the first trip under steam on
the lake for the wear belongs to the little
Alpha. Determined to demonstrate the fit.
ness of her title, she yesterday got up
steam near Caribou and made her way to
Bennett. There was little ostentaton in
the accomplishment of the feat, but all the
big boats of the lake have to dip their col.
ors and acknowledge that the first wheel
of the year 1000 to ehurn old Bennett is
that of the little Alpha. This craft was
also the Omega in the season of 1890, she
having remained under steam and run later
last fall than any other craft in Yukon
waters. The ALPHA belongs to G. Racine,
owner Of the sawmill on Taku Arm and
proprietor of the Bennett hotel.
The news of the arrival of the Alpha at
Bennett was brought to the citv last eve

steamers at Bennett are all where they can
not get out right away because of low
water. There is but 10 inches of water at
Caribou Crossing, but we expect it to be
deep enough Monday for the Cleaner to
proceed on to White Horse. We have
freight at Bennett for the vessel and she
will 90 out loaded The water in the lake
is rising three inches every "a hours.

Bennett to Cariboufollows where the trail
ran last fall.
1.-THE Australian had up steam when we
left Bennett today, and her flags were ds>
played, so suppose thew were about to
launch the craft. She will go into water
which is now shut off from the main part
of the lake, but if the waters continue to
rise she will be able to steam out before a
long time"

Sixty-six years ago on Jan. 81, 1884,
Daniel Webster stood up in the United

gogism of his day. He said in part;
The natural hatred of the poor against
the rich The danger of a moneyed
aristocracy " "A power as great and as
danE erous as that resisted by the Revo-
luton "A call for a new Declaration
OF Independence " Sir l admonish the
people against the object of cutcries like
these. admonish every industrious

very independence and make him a beg

advised to do that which will destroy half
its value. Has he hands to labor Let

THE GOSPEL OF HATE.

Hon. Don M. Dickinson. Postmaster
General under President Cleveland, is
heartily supporting President Mckinley.
In a recent address, referring to Mr. Bry-
ans many wild declarations, he said :
"Mr. Bryan is preaching the gospel of
hate. Voicing appeals to the envous, the
discontinued, the improvident, the incom-
petent and the unworthy idle.
But, worse still, he endeavors to set
friend against friend, neghbor against
neighbor, family against family, section
against section and nation against nation.
He makes the always dangerous appeal
to the evil in human nature. His postulates
are Boxer and his propaganda is Boxer
He SPEAKS no encouragement 10 the I'M
uccos >iul. but tells HIM to lay the blame
al lac door of his more fortunate neigh
Dor, and that his sole remedy is to attack
him. He invariably speaks of creditors
as "merciless creditors, and to the debt
or he teaches that his friend who has
loaned him money or trusted HIM is his
enemy.
When man fails and becomes de-
spondent, he does not seek to inspire him
with the American spirit of perseverance;
he does not appeal to him 10 be up and
doing and to try again. but he tells him
to stop trying, and that the remedy is TO
pull down the more successful"
