been the recipients of but few high
and honorable places in North Caro-
lima. and especially in national affairs
1t is true there are many places which
must necessarily be filed by members
of the legal profession. but the duties
of the position in question we assume
can be properly and ably administered
by a layman and we believe and in
sist that one should be appointed.
We pay the taxes, we do the voting
we defend our State and country in
every hour Of peril, and our claims
cannot and must not be forever ig-
nored.
The name of Gen. w. p. Roberts
of Gates county, has been presented
for the position made vacant by the
death of Major Robbins and we be-
lieve and insist that he is the proper
man for the place. He would fill it
with that dignity and reputation that
but few men who fought under the
standard of the immortal Lee could.
His reputation as a Confederate SOL
der has long since leaped the bounds
of our State and need not be referred
to here further than to say that a peo-
pie can poorly afford not to honor such
a son.
We also deem it unnecessary to re-
fer to Gen. Roberts as a man, a cit-
zen and a patriot, or to further COM
ment upon his qualifications, still we
believe and so insist that his superb
military record should be considered
as a peculiar qualification in this ap
So far as we have seen the various
Confederate camps in the State have
endorsed Gen Roberts for the place.

but they gave every appearance OF pc

market. But this influence proved less
effective than the comprehensive re
vival of a full line of merger and div
idend increase rumors, which nave
served the purpose Of advancing prices
several times already. Those bearing
upon the Northern Securities ADJUST
ment were especially prominent, ana
there was added to them the new sug-
gestion of a proposed retirement OF
the Burlington purchase bonds by an
issue of new stock by the holdlng COM
panies. Amongst the industrials, olo
rumors of combination were revived
by the news of q plan for the absorb
ton of the Rubber Goods Company
by the L. S. Rubber Company and by
the wide scope disclosed in the organ
ization of the rev American Smeltera
Securities Company. Large payments
to the sub-Treasury on account of the
return of the government deposits by
the banks left The money market un-
ruffied and confidence in the con-
tinued ease of money is undisturbed.
The advance in a number of public
franchise stocks was at the expense Of
the short interest. The professional
character of the market was indi-
Gated by the disposition to take profits
