Tie stock holders of the tic North Carolina railroad have re-elected Mr. James A. Bryan President. The road has prosper- ed under his administration Without undertaking to discuss the merits of the case at all, The Reflector would say that the controversy that has for some days been agitating the Tobacco Board of Trade is working injury to the market. Miss Mabel Duke, daughter of Mr. J. B. of Durham, left home Sunday with her sweetheart, Mr. H. B. of Richmond, and went to Raleigh where they were married. It is intimated that parental may be very slow but an the lady Is worth something like in her own name she and the young man may be able to get along. Mayor Powell, of Raleigh, was assaulted Tuesday night by a Mr. Battle. The ease was heard Thurs day before Judge who was holding court in at the time, and he sentenced Mr. Battle to the roads for sixty days. An appeal was taken to the court the ground that the punishment was excessive. Battle had appeared before the Mayor for disorderly conduct and took offense at the disposition of the case. An assault upon an officer in the dis- charge of his duties is a grave offense, which Judge re when Mr. Battle was taken before on this charge. An able lawyer from a distant county in the State told us not long since that he knew every member of a mob that bad lynched some and there was not one in the crowd who not freely give today all of his worldly goods to wipe the deed from memory. It brought into their lives; their faces now always pale as Judges from the bench are charging juries upon the sub of lynching.

They contend that in the pursuit defeat of the Spanish he acted accord- to the demands of the situation and the instructions of his superior officer, who did not happen to be within hailing distance when the reduced ships to junk. Admiral Schley has received from all parts the country pathetic concerning the death of his leading defender, with the advice to fight on. While Schley is by nature a last ditch man, the knowledge that the American people are following his case closely and with sympathy has served to en- courage both the Admiral and his energetic attorneys.

In presenting his views as to con- the archipelago, he is very hut of the statements made by him there Is a long thorny path before the American author- in the islands ere the Filipinos can be completely subdued and peaceful conditions established. General Corbin acknowledges that outside of the Island of Luzon there is a great deal of trouble, necessitating military operations ob a considerable scale. He also admits that it will be a full year before the army can be safely re- to men and that of troops must be retained in the islands for a long period, moral In addition, he states that from to will be required to provide permanent quarters for the who are to terminate the rev- habits of the natives. Preacher Ashes Should Be Scattered in Ocean. If the fate of the sin of President were left with the ministers of the conn- try, he would certainly receive the punishment he so well deserves. A prominent Charlotte pastor Sunday took occasion to make the following remarks regarding the assassin. He is ed his remains ate not worthy to buried in American soil. His body be cremated and the ashes shewn of the ocean.

Wilmington Mighty In Agriculture. Col. J. B. Southern Farm Magazine Baltimore for The estimated value of all farm products of the United States for 1900 was 13,000,000,000. Should the demand ever come, the South could sell at present prices cotton enough to reach this stun. Take the value of the products of the South to be as estimated, it will approximate value of nearly one half all the products of the States. In this estimate were not included, apparently, hemp, peas beans, which run up the aggregate several millions of dollars. All these products have been made square miles of proved lands of out of a total of square in the South. That is to say, there is only per cent, of the lands of the South improved. Concede that only per cent, is of being improved, then the South should easily produce over 4,000,000,000 of agricultural pro- ducts on per of its without any improved cultivation or fertilization, and employing ignorant labor.
