nr. Epraim Stripe, an old Confeder-

1t was a copy of the North Carolina
Standard. dated Raleigh, Thursday,
December 10. 1895.
Among other interesting matter, IL
contains the message of President
Andrew JACKSON TO Congress. then IN
session. Il also contains the inaugu-
raj address of Governor Richard =.

mention incidentally that Governor

Trent river just above New Bern We
were told that during the civil war. a
Federal officer died in New Bern and
it was desired to ship his remains

to empty out the bones of Governor
Spaight, and place the Federal officer

done.-Winston Journal.

A recent dispatch from The Hague
says there is a possibility of Holland
becoming = republic on the death
of Queen Wilhelmina. She has been
married five years and there has been
born no heir to the throne and ner
health is such that there is little pros
pect of her leaving a descendant. The
queen is suffering terribly from the
disappointment. The nearest in the
line Of succession to the throne IS the
grand duke OF SAKE Weimer; the next
is a princess of Reus and then one
of Wied. All these are Germans and
there is great opposition among the
Dutch people to any one of these as
Queen Wilhelmina's successor. They
feel that it would give the German
government undue influence over Hol-
lands affairs. 1t is said that in case
the queen dies leaving no child a re-
public will be established in prefer
ence to allowing any one of the three
Germans mentioned to ascend the
throne.

THE RAILWAY RATE BILL,

Now the real fight on the railroad
rate bill begins. 1t was a foregcne
conclusion that it would pass the
house. The tug of war will begin
when it is taken up in the senate. We
have no idea that the bill will pass
the latter body in anything like the
shape in which it came to that body
from the house. Most probably it
will be amended out of all recogni-
tino by it's friends in the southern
wing Of the capitol. Then the ques-
ton will arise as to which house will
be the most stubborn on holding Out
for it's own measure. Some of the rep
resentatives talk about sitting unei.
the time for the next congress to meet
before they will give way to any sen.
ale amendment likely to destroy the
value of the house bill. That there
will be a lively time and a bitter con.
test between the two bodies when the
bill goes to conference on the senate
amendments is expected by all who
have kept up with the movements ir
the matter. 1t is likely that the bill

Several tons of the brick wall of the
new Reodigar building. under course
of construction at the corner of Church
and Third streets. was precipitated on
to the wooden building used as a sa-
loon by Mr.. Roedigar, Sunday night
about 10:45, almost demolishing the
building and fixtures entailing a loss
of several hundred dollars.-Winston
Journal.
We wonder what our good friends of
Winston have to say about this. Had
the accident occurred on a weekday
night and several of the morally
stunted who happened to be in the bar
at the time shaking their thirst with
some Of the ardent or of the mi.der
malt tonic had been killed or serious
ly injured, no doubt many would have
held that it was a dis~pensation of God
"a punishment on those men who
were present; but as it occurred on a
Sunday night when the saloon was
empty and closed and no life was
put in danger they may admit that
it was purely an accident; or they
may say that the disaster was sent On
Sunday night as a warning as to
what could be expected to, occur at
some time in the future when habit
ues of the place would not escape.

Physicians prescription DRINKS come
high in Charlotte. The recorder gives
it out that every man VINO comes be-
fore his court on charge of drunken
ness and is proven to have become
drunk on whiskey secured on a physi-
clans prescription will get no less than
a twenty dollar fine. What an ordi-
nary moonshine or blockade liquor
drunk will cost. he has not announced.
Well, we reckon this is right. The fell
lows who can pay for the prescription
in addition to the price of the whiskey
are to be supposed to be able to stand
a heavier fine than those who are lore
&c by the state of their purse to pur-
chase the cheaper stuff.

PARTY FEALTY.

1udL Ndo OH u4ucua4 CApE1 iIALC "
the federal senate last Wednesday. It
is not often that its dry and dignifed
proceedings are interrupted by such a
lively and spicy debate as the n be-
tween Senators Bailey and Patterson
Mr.. Patterson's idea, # carried to
legitimate conclusion, would relieve
every democrat from obligation to
stand by the action of his party in any
nominating convention. We thought
it was the rule of conduct of all politi-
cal parties that, on a question being
raised among party members. the mi
majority. Were it otherwise how
could there be party organization or
hope of carrying out party principles
unless there was perfect unanimity Of
opinion?
This Santo Domingo treaty contest is
an illustration of the necessity for the
rule hat the majority shall govern.
The democratic party opposes the
principle ON which this treaty is based.
The republicans cannot secure it's rat
ification in the senate unless they can
gain the support of at least four dem
ocratic senator's.
Should any four democratic senators
put their judgment in opposition to
that of all the other democrats of hat
body and Of their party generally?
Would it not be saying they were bet
ter able to judge what is best for the
country than all the other senators and
of a large majority of the members of
the party?
We cannot see where the matter of
conscience comes in. 1t is a question
Of acting for the greatest good of the
country, and such questions are to be
decided by the exercise of judgment,
after thorough investigation of condi-
tons and results likely to follow the
proposed action. In such cases. sure
ly n member of a party or even
four should not presume to say that in
their knowledge Of the facts and their
opinion as to the results to follow a
certain line of action they are superior
to their party and to its other repre-
sentatives.
Our position on the question does
not preclude opposition within the
party by any member of proposed &C
ton Or criticism of the conduct of any
member of the party in office or of the
record of any aspirant for office at the
hands of the party. We believe in in
dependence Of action and freedom Of
speech within the party. Every man
has the right to his views and should
have the privilege of expressing them
and he should not be ruled out Of the
party when they are counter to those
of the leaders Or even the majority of
his party provided he is willing to ac-
cept the action of the majority as the
of will and, declaration of
principles of the party though he may
not give them his approval.
