day and pipes were raised 45 feet

1t Is a high inspiration to the whites

REPUBLICANS LOSING GROUND.

1t is not mere rumor or invention as
to the republican leaders becoming
something uneasy over the prospect of
carrying the country for Mckinley.
Hanna sees changed conditions, and
thinks the chances uncomfortably
close. Newspapers in the north that
supported him in 1896, are not inclined
to try him again. The republican or
gans are really or pretendedly sorry
over the settlement OF the gold stan
dard by the assured enactment of the
measure to be adopted SOC by the
congress. That is the talk. If it is so
settled at present it spikes their favor
lite gun and robs them of their best
issue. The machine managers are
bothered to know what is best to sub
stitute in order to carry the country.
The goIdbug New York Post says:
1.-The central west was carried for Nc
Kinley on the financial issue only af-
ter a very hard struggle, four years ago.
Republican and democratic journals in
that section do not conceal their feel
ing that the policy pursued by the Nc
Kinley-Hanna syndicate, of running
the government in the interests of the
protected classes, the subsidy schem-
ers. and the trusts which are protect.
ed by the tariff, is playing into the
hands of the democrats. The Indianap-
Ollie News, for example, says that the
thing to do is to- kill the subsidy bill,
and gives as one reason that the re-
publicans are not so strong in the con-
fdence of the country that they can af-
ford TO take chances"
If is unite probable that democratic
chances have frightened during the
last two or three months. If no set
back occurs they may defeat Mckinley
in spite of his barrels of money to buy
votes.

Gen. Gordon gave an impressive idea
of the bitterness of the early battles
by citing M fight in which he was
the only officer who escaped injury,
while every horse and two-thirds of
the command were killed.
At Sharpsburg, Ga, Gordon was
shot five times. His description of his
unconscious sensational the paradox
be allowed-must be of great interest
to psychologists.
The report says hat the audience
was enthusiastic over his character
ization of Lee, when the speaker said
that mo grander citizen ever adorned
private life, and no greater soldier ever
rode into battle"
Finally, the speaker said that he
stood there, a Confederate, who has
never blushed ave that he could not
have o more for the old cause.
He also dwelt at length on the sin
gular presentiments hat often come to
men about to go into a battle and their
fatal ve%rification. An officer once tool
out his watch and said to Gordon: I'm
a half Jour L shall be dead" And he
was. The Federal general, Keifer, re-
ports two similar instances regarding
officers under his command. So with
Letter, Ramseur and the generals own
brother-they rode to death after a
distinct prediction of it.

TIL CANAL.

h Messenger has had but little to
! canal. 1t is a matter of controversy
/ as to who should build it and how it
should be built. We motive that ex-
! Senator Edmunds is of the opinion that
| Uncle Sam should build it. 1t will cost
the people more than 500, 000, 900, but
that great surn with the politicians
now is a mere bagatelle. Judge Ed
munds holds that the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty ceased to be binding upon either
England or this country long ago
a h~alf-century since, and that the canal
should be built upon the lines of the
Arthur treaty and be strongly fortified.
He is reported in a special to the Char
lesion News and Courier as saying:
Under the circumstances ii is idle
for me to discuss whether or not the
new treaty a~brogates the Clayton-Bal-
wer treaty. / have always been in
favor of the building of the cana by
the United States government n l am
more han yer impressed with the imi
%portance of the early completion OF
that work. / favor the building of the
canal on the lines of the Arthur treaty
Let the United States go ahead and
construct the canal, after making &C
ceptable arrangements with Nicaragua
and other South American states di-
rectly interested. I would have the
United states construct, ownsa n reg
ulate the tolls of the canal. I would
take in Nicaragua Inc COcta: Rica or
such South American states as may
furnish territory to aid in the compile
ton of the work I would give those
states a reasonable share in the profits
of the canal, but the United States
would exercise absolute control over
she canal and regulate the administra-
ton of it's affairs without asking the
consent of any other nation in the
wcrld."
Trouble may yet grow out of the
great project. 1t Is not by any means

will pass. There is a commission sent
by the government to examine the two
routss-the Nicaragua and the Panama

to pass a bill as to Nicaragua at once

A special agent of the department OF
agriculture at Washington, Mr.. b. C.
White, lately made a tour of observa-
ton mong the cotton mills in North
Carolina. He saw much to admire and
many evidences of improved condi-
tons. We copy from a part Of his re-
port:
Il visited fifty-one mills, and all but
two of them were running on extra time
and employing a double force of mill
hands and operators. The little town
of Gibsonville now has two mills, and
the place is growing rapidly. At
Kings Mountain there are three mills
and another one is being built. This
town has a population Of 1000, and the
people are all prosperous. . The
Kings Mountain section is now quilt
up with cotton mills and is thriving
and prosperous.
while the other southern states are
behind North Carolina in the establish
ment of cotton mills, still efforts are
being made in all directions to &C
