GEN CARR AND -'M'LAURINIsM'
Some OF the State papers continue to
ignore the recent interview of Gen. Julian
S. Carr. in which he ''cussed out the
peanut politicians and Organism
and 1.-THE machine and declared that
Senator McLaurin. of South Carolina,
was right in his fight against 'Tillman-
ism" and that the commercial Democ-
racy" would ultimately win, etc. Other
papers, in which Gen. Carr is known to
have a controlling interest, and still
others which are indebted to him finan-
cially. are expressing the hope that he
didn't say quite all that, and one OF them
stated Saturday that its editor had writ
ten a letter to Gen. Carr soon after the
now o-weeks-old) interview. asking
him if he had so ':stultified himself after
all his long years of devotion and finan-
cial aid to the party.
This looks as though the paper in ques-
claimer from the General, and was trying
to make the way easy by opening a GAP
for a disavowal of something the inter
view never contained. But up to this
writing the General has not sent in his
disclaimer-or at least, it has not ap
peared in print. 1t will probably be in
teresting reading when it appears. if i,
ever does, and may lead to further devel

ARGUMENT FOR THE WHIPPING
POST.

The Greenvle reflector records the
following circumstance which is
another argument in favor of the
whipping post. A negro who was
serving term in Pitt bounty Jail
was recently hired out to farmer
lie worked along for day or two
and then failed to show up at his end
of the row any more. The farmer
started an inquiry as to the where
ahouts of the negro and found that
he had returned to town and gone
back in Jail. The negro said he had
rather stay in Jail than to work. OF
course, when he has nothing else to
do but eat, sleep and idle the time
away with neither conjunction of
conscience nor feeling of shame at
what he has done. The whipping
post is the thing with nine and thirty
stripes well laid on. But the politi-
clans are as as afraid of touching
n law of the kind as they are one to
tax the NANCY sheepkilling ours.

THE DEAD POET.

Writing of his friend Theophilus
II. Hill, of Raleigh. DR.. King bury, in
the Wilmington Messenger, pays the
following brief but merited tribute to
the dead poet:
This writer only few weeks ago
had sent him by Mr.. Hill a poem that
may have been his last, and its sub
ject and sentiment not onl ~ manifest
ed an abiding trust and unclouded
hope as to the better life beyond, but
the poem reads now in the view of
his death as if he may lave had a
vision of 4 speedy close of life and
the coming glory that awaited him.
His last stanZas were these:
"For know that Ii is mercy enduretl,
Else it had never waited for me;
His life my salvation endureth,
And thine, for he waiteth for thee.
AS of Old, ever new the sweet story
Or Christine Redeemer of men;
When grace is TRANSPORTED to glory
May we sing it together again.
We knew Mr.. Hill since about 1888.
In that year or the year later we read
his first volume of verse, and wrote
of it at some length. perhaps as much
as two columns in a newspaper. He
was not Il prolific versifier, but he
produced some poems of true melody
and grace, and with original inspira-
ton of their own. Later, about 1868,
we recall that we wrote a second
criticism of his productions up to
that time. We think MIR. Hill was a
genuine poet, not Of commanding
or very original type, but he sang
| sweetlV. sometimes patheticall V, and
there is to be found in his best
work something of genuine lyrical
excellence, and careful art as we'll
as the sincere utterance of one who
was blessed with a God-given ms pira-
ton and poetical refinement He
had the poets touch and the
.'swallow's song" If he was not a
poet then we fear North Carolina is
poor indeed, without one poet to
| strike the lvre. We mean that he
has no superior among our native
singers with their 'wood-notes wild"
Indeed, upon a re-casting of Judgment
we incline to the view that Theophilus
Hill was the best of North Calolina
| poets. We are not essaying to write
criticism for that was done long
ago. We add merely that like all
poets he had moods. Sometimes he
was even gay, something rollicking
in his humor. But the more prevail
ing quality of his verse leant to pathos
with much of religious tone. There
may be found, we dare say, phase
of melancholy in his writings He
certainly produced some memorable
poems. He had smoothness, felicity,
natural grace and form, and was care
| full in phrasing, knowing the artistic
use of words. We were personal
| friends for more than forty wears,
and we sincerely regret his departure.
and yet may not dare to lament that
he has put on fresh. enlarged life in
the beautiful home prepared for him
by the dear Lord and Saviour. Said
He: Il go to prepare place for YOU
that where | am, there We NAV be
also The children of God never
die. May his memory be long cherish
ed by the sons and daughters of his
native North Carolina.

MIR. Edward A. Oldham, erstwhile
OF North Carolina, now of Washing
ton, has entered the ranks of the
doubters, and digs up copy of an
alleged poem by Chinese, entitled.
The Fn-Niano," which he thinks was
the progenitor of The Raven from
this Chinese rhymer, was original
with Edgar Allen Poe. Mr.. Oldham
evidently thinks Col. Poe stole The
Raven" from this Chinese rhvmer.
The Chinese verses resemble in a re-
mote degree Poe's poem. But Poe
was not the Chinese scholar Mr.. Old
ham and some others are. and prob
ably was put to the trouble of writing
his own poems.-Raleigh Times.

The Governor may have been beset

their patriotism will not permit them
to play the Achilles, the more espe-
cially when they see the States in

was the charter of the road itself. The
Governor has done the best he could,
