The people of Wilson are greatly in
earnest in their desire to secure the es-
adjustment of a dispensary in that town
Representative Croker has introduced
bill to establish a dispensary and has
filed with it petition signed by 46i
voters, being clear majority OF the
white voters of the township and by 700
Of the best women of the township. The
sentiment against the demoraliZing sa-
loon is strong and growing in Wilson,
as elsewhere.
Mr.. J. G. Buxton, who returned from
Raleigh yesterday, in speaking or the
result of the Senatorial contest, said that
Mr.. Watson's friends came away from
the capital city with the consolation that
they had made an open and clean fight
and that no improper methods had been
used to influence a sinle vote. He furth-
err said that the result was finally reach
ed by the desertion of six or eight men,
bers who had voted continuously for Mr..
Watson from the beginning and that the
singular feature connected with it was
the fact that the desertion took place
when Mr. Watson was in the lead, when
it was well-known that nomination was
inevitable within the next few ballots,
and neither Mr.. Watson nor his friends
We're advised Of any intention OF con-
certed action on the part OF those leaving
him, and it is now apparent that Mr..
Overmans friends were aware that the
movement was on foot before the caucus
met that night. Perhaps these gentlemen
could explain the matter, but Mr. Wat
sons friends cannot now understand it

IF it was the part of wisdom and good
policy to elect Overman United States

elect Cyrus B. Watson Governor of North

WISHING.

Of all amusements fer the mind,
From logic down to fishing.
There's not another you can find
So very cheap as "wishing.'

And not, as We are apt to do,
Peryert it, and abuse it.

My purse We're somewhat fatter,
That | might cheer the child of need,
And not my pride to f1atter.
That l might make Oppression reel,
AS only geld can make it.
And break the Tyrants rcd Of steel,
AS only gold can break it.
| wish-that Sympathy and Love,
And every human passion
That has ITS or1sia above.
Would come and keep in fashion;
L
And every base emotion,
Ndere buried It. fathoms deep
Beneath the waves of Ocean.

And motives always pure;
| wish the good We're not so few,
l wish the bad We're fewer;
| wish that parsons neer forgot
To heed their pious teaching;
| wish that practicing was not
So different from preaching.
| wish-that modest worth might be
Appraised with truth and candor;
| wish that innocence were free
From treachery and SANDER;
l wish that men their VOWS would
mind,
That women ne'er were rovers;
| wish that wives were always kind,
And husbands always lovers!
. wish-in fine-that Joy and Mirth,
And every good Ideal,
May come erewhile throughout the

To be the glorious Real;
Till God shall every creature bless
With His supremest blessing,
And Hope be lost in Happiness,
And Wishing in Possessing

The ministry seems to be losing its

of clergymen is better than it once
was. though in many instances it is
very small yet. The churches az

sizes the situation UP we'll, and it
shows that some OF the northern peO-
pie are beginning TO see the negro
problem in its true light:
Negroes are heading toward the
south since the Outrages in Indiana,
Illinois, Kansas, OHIO and Delaware.
There is more security and safety in
the southland for the negro than in
the north. The difference is this: The
south limits the privileges and the
liberty of the negro, and he knows
his rights and does not venture be-
yond the fold. In the north the negro
is permitted to become familiar. re-
straint is not placed on his daily ac-
tions in public and many become bold
ard take liberties which the southern
negro knows means death. If the
white man will quit his familiarity
with the negro and give him to un-
derstand where his place is it will not
take long to correct the existing evils
If the depraved and criminal negro
persists in depradations he deserves
the same fate as his white companion
in crime-imprisonme or death.

A PLEA FOR UNITY.
For Surveyor :
LOUIS GREEN.

The Maryland Republican of this
morning publishes the following plea
for unity
The senseless course now being pur
sued by the two factions in Anne Arun-
del should at once come to an end. The
State Convention by giving each faction
equal representation in that body has
placed them on an exact equality, and
neither can now with any sense or JUS
tice claim for its ticket any regularity
over the other. All such talk is now the
veriest bosh and we have no patience
with il. The leader, or leaders, who by
any such foolish claim or other senseless
contention prevents the Democracy of
the county from adjusting its differences
and uniting in the support OF a ticket
which holds out hope and promise of
success, will prove his unfitness to lead.
There is an almost universal desire
among the rank and file of the party in
the county for one Democratic ticket
upon which all can unite and it would
be well for the leaders to heed this de-
sire. Further, the masses of the party
are not greatly concerned as to what
names shall go on this ticket, provided
the names are those of competent and
honest men. This ticket can be made up
of names from the two tickets now in
the field, or of entirely new names, and,
when made, will receive the support of
the Democratic rank and file and will
have a reasonable hope of election.
Then why can't such ticket be madey
Why must the county be thrown away?
There is absolutely no reason unless the
leaders are too obstinate and too bitter
against each other. Such ticket ought
to be made and made at once. If they
did not realize it before since the action
of the State Convention it must be ap-
parent TO the leaders of the two factions
and to the candidates on the other tick
cts, that there is no hope of the election
of a Democratic ticket under present
conditions We hope. therefore, that
there will be conference shortly. Tues
day would be good day, and that, rec
ognizing the hopelessness of the present
state Of affairs, reasonable and sensible
counsel may prevail and that settlement
may be effected which will result in the
putting up of ticket which will unite
the party and result in Democratic vic
tory in the county.
