As the day of election approach-
es the Republicans are getting
more more sanguine that they
are going to sweep the country.
The Democrats, however, are
laying low working hard.
They are confident of surprising
the Republicans the 6th in
New York, Illinois, Indiana, Wis-
and the It is well
by Reflector readers
that the Republicans hope for
Populist victory in the South and
Democrats hope for Populist
in the West. The reason is
plain. They are working against
each other us ever and neither
side cares a straw as to the
fit to be derived by their
list brethren. Wherever they can
use the Populists to ride in pow

and Tammany will likely be de-

Delaware will have Democratic

Senators, Bryan may possibly
win in Nebraska, but not
; Wilson will have a close rub
in West Virginia; Republicans
will gain five Congressmen in
Pennsylvania, two in New York,
two in Michigan, one in
about ten from the West and
South. A very conservative
mate of the standing of the next
House, Democrats, Re-
publicans and Populists. With
these figures the Democrats can
organize, for the Populists will
all support Crisp for Speaker as
against Reed. Both Simpson and
Pence, the Populist leaders, have
been heard to say that as between
the two the full Populist strength
would go to Crisp, but there may
be an effort to make Simpson or
Weaver Speaker, should the
Populists demand it of the Demo-
with threats that otherwise
they will vote for Reed. In this
emergency the Democratic ad-
ministration would certainly re-
the support of the Populists
on every administration measure
and would have all the clerkships
and committee chairmanships.
But this is mere talk, for there
are very few Democrats who do
not expect to retain tie House.
On the other hand the
cans have already conceded the
Senate to the Democrats, and it
is conceded by all sides that if the
tariff bill bad been passed six
months earlier the Republicans
would have been swept utterly

A story leaked out here last
week that though dating back to
before the Democratic State
Convention of 1892, will be of in-
to North Carolinians. A
close acquaintance of the late Col.
L. L Polk told your
dent last night that when the
name of Julian S- Carr was men-
for Governor, Col. Polk
was delighted and immediately
declared that whatever the
might do toward putting up
another State ticket, he would
use his whole strength tor Carr.
Polk asked a friend of Col. Carr
to come to his office and talk over
the matter, whereupon he told
this friend that the Alliance in
North Carolina be con-
trolled by him in this mat-
and that he liked Mr. Carr so
much that he could get the entire
support for him, provided Mr.
Carr would write him a
j letter by claiming
I to be in sympathy with the Alli-
in its movements, Polk de-
that he would only show
he letter very cautiously to the
Alliance. This, said will
give Mr. Carr the Alliance vote
in the State Convention and elect
him Governor by an overwhelm
majority. This friend left
Washington to Durham
to see Col Carr about it, where
upon Mr. Carr is reported as say-
with great emphasis,

prouder than ever that he was a

with equal emphasis that no votes

North Carolina not, as now, by
the people, but by Mott and But-
Mott is a natural and
has had long years experience in
the business- Butler has within
two years developed into tho most
autocrat the State has
ever seen- He is the supreme
ruler of the Populist party in this
State and his underlings obey him
implicitly. Mott would pimply
take the Republican of
a fusion Legislature by the throat
choke them into subjection
by virtue of his force

It is alone that these two
men would elect themselves to
the United States Senate. That,
heaven knows, would be bad
enough ; but the States
Senate cannot hurt or help us half
as much as can the Legislature
of North Carolina, and well might
the State tremble for what would
be meted out to it through the
Legislature by these two men
intoxicated with victory
mated by the spirit of revenge.
The work of years would be over

the war rescued the Common
wealth from bankruptcy and dis-
grace, would see their work
strayed and themselves

recoil from it in the

God the State
people of North Carolina
should reflect well upon what is
involved in a transfer of
State government from the hands
of the Democratic party to those
of the party which has placed its
candidates before thorn but
which has not yet taken unto it
self a name. All but of the
members of tho Supreme Court
are to be elected, and half of the
judges of the Superior Court. As
to the Supreme
Court candidates, Capt. W. H.
Kitchin has been charged with
having said, and as far as
know has not denied having said,
that everybody in tho east knows
that Judge Faircloth is not tit to
sit the Supreme Court bench
and that he has heard the west
that Judge Furches is even less
tit than Faircloth. If Captain
did not say this we will
give him the liberty of our col-
to deny it- It is that
in his he cannot be in-
to tell the people who they
should vote for, notwithstanding
that he has been urged to do BO
by gentlemen who have met him
in joint discussion. He is the
chief speaker for the unnamed
party in their campaign and tho
people may naturally regard with
suspicion a ticket which he will
not advise them to vote for. As
to the candidates for the Superior
Court nominated by

We cannot. The majority of them
are men unheard of until now
and some of them are wholly in-

disappointed Democrats. One of
the most intelligent colored men

disgruntled element of the Demo-

in nothing except in name, only
from bad to worse. All the crazy
political freaks that disturb the
public and the legislation which
would unsettle, if not disrupt, our
whole system of government,
spring up and are advocated by
the Populist element. They
generally as much, if not more,
opposed to giving fair play to the

progressive Democrats- The
reasons for this are apparent.

parties that can hope to have any

the grand old Republican party

Democratic party which is now
in control of national affairs.
The history of the two parties is

reason yet why

Democratic party in North Caro-

plain that every man must see it.
He can't help it. The party in
North Carolina has stood for and
pledged an economical and hon-

man who can deny prove that
it has failed to keep its pledges t
Every man knows that taxation
is now lower in North Carolina
than in any other State in the
Union, that justice is dealt out
from our courts, that the laws
are administered the best
way, that
have without exception been
faithful to every trust, that the
whole department of government
has been administered iD a prop-
honest and economical way-
When a man denies these facts it
is in order to ask him for some
proof to substantiate his state-
Populist editors and
speakers deny it all, but offer not
a single instance which a trust
has betrayed-
Men of North Carolina who
have passed through tho expert
of the last thirty years
should be slow to turn
this party which has been the
salvation of of the State. If
will but stop reflect, and
bring to bear their common
and experience, they will not do
so. We are not surprised that
boys, irresponsible men, and place
hunters should do as they are do-
seeking to destroy tho only
party that can will govern
the State well. But why in the
world sensible honest men
who are seeking only the welfare
of their State should for a mo-
hesitate to give their en-
tire support to tho Democratic
party, we cannot see.

Bound to Get the Train.
A young woman, jauntily dressed,
wearing a natty suit, rushed into the
union station the other afternoon.
Taking a hurried glance at the walls
of the room, she finally discovered
the timepiece, and with an audible
ran upstairs as fast as her
already weakened strength would
permit. She was nearly overcome
by her exertions as she reached the
exit to the platform. A large box
and two bundles were all the imped-
she carried. She was climb-
aboard a train for Springfield,
minding not the drops of rain that
were drenching her costume, at the
same time telling the brakeman,
with spasmodic gasps, how she
feared the horrid train would leave
before she arrived, adding that she
had an engagement in New Britain
that she must break. On learn-
that she was not on the New
side of the station, and had
not time to go around, she tossed
her luggage over the fence, and with
an athletic bound sprang after it.
She landed all right, and, making a
dash, succeeded in boarding the
train she sought just in time. Hats
were off to the New Britain maiden.

THE PAST.
The Necessity for the Old-Time Ox
Team Gone.
Cattle Inspector has
finished his rounds, and reports not
one team of oxen owned in town,
says the Easthampton News.
Last year there was just one, which
was sold for beef on the day after
his call was made. This, the last
team, was owned by P. Burt.
This vanishing of the heavy ox team
marks an era in our progress just as
surely, if not as noticeably, as the
coming of steam after the stage
coaches and canals, or the entrance
of the electric car to supplement
and in some respects displace the
steam locomotive and the horse
team. Years ago the farmer was
not to be found who did not own an
ox team and oftentimes more than
one. The land was heavier than
now, much of it was new sod, and
the roads were far harder to travel
than even at this date when we are
apt to think them anything but
good. But with the coining of bet-
roads the more complete break-
of the fields, the of
powerful machinery and cheap
for removing stumps and
rocks, and, more especially, the
breeding of heavier horses, the pa-
ox has, like the Indian, gone
out of our civilization gradually but
surely, but, unlike the Indian, he
has not gone west. To the little
folks to-day the massive yokes,
smooth and glistening with the labor
of straining shoulders, arc a
The big-tongued cart is
most as obsolete as the ox himself,
and the long whip has gone with the
and and and
strange terms of a now almost
dead language. As, in so many
other respects, classic reference to
will have to be ex-
plained before long, with reference
to the cow as the
and undoubtedly the revisers will
have it in the
of a decade hence.
So we progress from crude muscle
and the tugging of sinews to the
power of swift horses, tireless steam,
and now stand on the threshold of
the universal electricity, that has
been back of all these forerunners,
and is now fast supplanting them.
There may be a pair or so of oxen
again owned in town, but, like the
getting out of the tin lantern, it
be but a flickering revival of a
past already dead.
goose, standing in dread of the
monkey, seeks salvation by speedily
making for the water, instinctively
knowing that in her native element
she is sure of freer movements than
upon the land. The monkey, afraid
of the water, exerts himself to the
uttermost not to drawn into it.
Both animals utter cries of despair,
while the noise and laughter of the
onlookers conduce to make the hap-
less creatures completely frenzied.
As a rule the goose proves
and the monkey is drawn
into the water. At the outset he is
utterly at a loss to know how to con-
duct himself there; but the cunning
rogue, quick recognize bis
advantages, presently sits
astride the the goose, in
true equestrian fashion. The goose
is likewise flurried at first, but soon
appears to regain her scattered wits
if a goose may be said to have
wits. She is about to take a dive,
but the simian throws his long arms
about her neck and prevents her.
Hardly the rascal made certain
of his advantage than his courage
returns. With the most provoking-
ludicrous grimaces the angered
monkey deals blow upon blow upon
the poor goose's body and tears her
feathers; and the more the
tors laugh and shout the wilder are
his antics. This state of things lasts
until the luckless animals are loosed
from an uncongenial companionship,
and the exhibition comes to an end.

the water, and the carp came
around and began eating it. He
jumped into the water with his pitch-
fork to throw the grass back on his
cart, and a regular battle
between him and the
carp for the possession of it. The
carp ran against his legs and nearly
threw him but he worked
away like a Trojan and managed to
save about half of the grass, and
with it pitched about half a ton of
carp into the cart. The rest of the
grass was eaten by the carp he did
not catch. He was on his way to

as a for his horses. When he

For a great many years doctors pro-
