Forotalling.

Mr.. Bryan. overruling the national
committee, has determined that the
national convention OF the demo.
cratic party shall be held prior to the
meeting of the republicans at Phila-
delphia. The reason which he ad-
vances for an early convention is that
it affords an opportunity for the
adoption of an antitrust plank be-
fore the republicans can express
themselves in the national conven-
tion upon the same subject. At the
common law it was an indictable Of
fense to obtain control of all the
necessaries of life so as to produce
famine in the market. and thus obtain
extortionate prices from the COM
munity. Mr.. Bryan has determined
that the denunciation of trusts is a
staple necessary to the existence OF
political parties and that the organi-
alton that does not possess it will
perish miserably in the approaching
campaign. hence he proposes by the
process of forestalling to monOpOlize
the entire output Of antitrust de-
nunciation. 1t is surprising that one
who on more than twenty-three thous-
and different occasions has declared
himself TO be the friend OF plain, COM
mon people, a large majority OF whom
differ with him in politics, should
freely admit that he has it in his
heart to cause so much Of suffering
by the absorption Of the entire sup
ply of political pabuIum. The ability
OF this anti-monopolist to monoIo-
lie is remarkable.

Dental chair. the republican party
has shouted ..war to. the knife and
knife to the hilt." Blood has flowed
in torrents and yet the old monster
is not-quenched. His cry is for more

This speech was followed by the
adoption of resolution declaring the
war for the preservation Of the union
a failure. And now these one time
republicans stand shoulder to shoulder
with the detractors of the immortal
Lincoln.

THE FITNESS Or THINGS.
If you would be the bard who sings
Of love. take heed of surroundings,
Select some sweet, secluded spot,
Build up a fire raging hot, 4
Let all your tingling pulses thrill
Like loose stones sliding down a! hill,
And get, ere you begin your grind,
The SoftestSpencil you can find.
If you would write of wealth, success,
Drag in an iceberg, more or less,
Sit down upon it's cooling side,
Pull out your pen andlet 1T glide.
With inspiration you'll be filled
When all your leaping blood is chilled,
And get, your thought to weave and
wind,
The hardest pencil you can find.
When spurred to write of friends, be-
ware,
No ink should mar the paper there,
And be not driven by heat or haste,
Use something easily erased.
When you would write descriptiVely,
Your pencil should have. you'll agree,
"a first class ssrubber'--IH be bound.
To fit itself for looking round,
In writing lines to ladies' eyes,
Be prudent, careful, calm and wise,
And write with ink, for in about
Aday you'll want to scratch 'em out,
Both lines and eyes, and SO you see
The wisdom of this homily,
The ladieS-dainty little elves,
Can pencil their dear eyes themselves.
Poor poet! All his genius, hope,

sOME VAGRANT NEW YEAR
@$ VERSE.
We have been coming our exchanges
for some really m%eritorious New Year
verse but have failed to find it Hence
we shall create some original stanzas-
something that will touch the heart,
please the a and not offend the eye.
We shall present the following selec-
lions:
The sentimental style:
Good bye, Old Year, good bye, good
bye,
We = you swiftly passing by,
And there Ire tears in both 0ur eye,
Tears since we know that on Jan. 1
The old yearNWill be dead and done,
Why then should we not cry, why then,
Since we shall ne''er see thee again.
The dreamy and quaintly categorical
style:
Swing wide the, gate and turn the lock,
The year will die at twelve o'clock
Pm. tonight and never more
Will 1t pass through Times rusty door,
so swing the gate and turn the lock,
The year Will die at twelve o'clock.
Or the humorous style:
I heard the old year in the night
When all the stars were twinkling
bright, YAH
Breathe low this pathetic petition:
Let me die without a physician!y
And as saw the dead year lie
thought: How sweet Ills thus to die..'
Or the heavy philosophical style:
Oh Time, thou never stoppest,
Or amy stitches droppest
From thy gray back.
| am sad for I knoWest
That thou SO swiftly goest!
Alas! Alack!
We are a little doubtful about tina
allusion to Times grayback but al
long as it is written, let it go down int
literature undisturbed.

AN PROBLEM.

At a meeting of the directors Of the
decided to ask the Legislature to APP
propriate at it's coming session $40
900 to pay a deficit. $150.000 to enlarge
tho buildings, and increase the an
nual appropriation to 100000. There
are numbers Of insane people who are
denied admission because the superin-
tendent cannot make room for them.
The State ought to provide sufficient
accommodations for all the INDECENT
insane Of the State, and for other in
ane as rapidly as the revenue of the
State will permit. But failure to care
for the INDECENT insane is inexcusablc.
These people have 10 resource except
to be 4 burden upon relatives too poor
to care for them, to go to Jail or to
be treated in an insane asylum. The
last is the only humane method and
the State ought to employ It III every
case.
The conditions calling for enlarge
ment at Morganton exist also al
Raleigh and at Goldsbcro. The i'll
creased population Of The State, the
increase in insanity which follows

ence Of insane persons in jails CT in

AN ALTRUISTIC HUSBAND.

The marriage Of Mrs. Phipps to Mr..
Roger Morgan, a millionaire, Of Mich
igan, which was a notable event in
high society during the past week,
has behind it the story of an altruistic
husband who loved his wife SO much
that he gave her up because he believ-
ed q millionaire could make her hap
pier than he could. 4 year ago the
lady, who was the apparently devoted
wife Of a travelling man, met the mil
lionaire. He feel deeply in owe with
her and she r~eciprocated his passion.
The husband permitted a divorce and
now he is minus a wife and his for
mer wife is plus a mansion and the ac-
cessories that go with the millionaire
husband.
Who will ever know the sacrifice the
husband has made? Ruskin loved his
wife devotedly, but he voluntarily gave
her up to enable her TO marry Sir
John Millias. Pipps is as great in
altruisin as Ruskin. What about their
wives?

SIZE OF THE COTTON CROP,

The statistician of the Department.
Of Agriculture estimates, as already
published, that the crop this year will
be 100000 bales. The estimated
yield per acre for North Carolina is
1919 pounds, the largest yield Of any
except the Gulf States. Upon the
basis Of a crop estimate Of more than
ten million bales the crop has taken
q tumble, not warranted by the esti-
mate.
Charles D. Freeman & Co.. cotton
dealers in New York, some months
ago estimated that the maximum cot
ton crop would be 9,40C.O 900 bales. Now
they have issued another statement.
based upon replies from every cotton
State, iii which they predict that the
crop may surprise the entire trade by
being smaller than even the smallest

Fer the past twelve years the average
movement Of the crop into sight to the
first CT December has been SOL per cent.
of the total o%ut-turn. The lowest per-
centage which has come into sight to the
cate named has been 47.42 per cent, and
the highest has been "a. So per cent. If
this crop has moved as fast as the fastest,
the total out-turn would be S,746. 5O4; if

would be 10.113.260. In making these
calculations we have taken the amount
IN sight to November 3Oth. as shown by
the Financial Chronicle, which is 4,795,-
'oS bales. In determining, therefore, the
SIZE OF the present crop, it seems to US
nat the most important fact was TO as
certain What percentage has come into
sight 10 the first Of December. The per-
centages stated in reply to our inquiries
would seem 10 prove that this crop has
been marketed faster tina any crop in
the Past twelve years. It is certainly
true that the exceptionally high prices in
