The authorities cf the <lb/>

reduction in the rates of first-class <lb/>

a-half cents per mile. The reduced <lb/>
rate goes into effect to-morrow, <lb/>
which is June 1st. <lb/>
It was also announced that pas- <lb/>
without tickets, who board <lb/>
trains at stations where there are <lb/>
agents, will be charged from to <lb/>
cents than rate Ht <lb/>

then being seventy-nine. The <lb/>
officers suppressed their <lb/>

verified his schedule of his posses- <lb/>
fare over the Wilmington and submitted the case to the <lb/>
directors. They looked the matter <lb/>
over in the light of tables, <lb/>
etc, and finally, after <lb/>
decided that the risk be <lb/>
too great and so notified the donor. <lb/>
Not long after he came back and re- <lb/>
newed his proposition to turn over I <lb/>
the money to the society and said <lb/>
that he would lie content with <lb/>

was accepted, and for some years <lb/>
he appeared regularly at the <lb/>
ration of the year and drew interest, <lb/>
taking in cash and <lb/>

doing this tor seven years he turned <lb/>

The Democratic hosts of the <lb/>

and will <lb/>

of the proceedings of the <lb/>
Convention would be interesting, <lb/>
but want of space prevents. <lb/>
Judge Fowle, Lieut. Gov. <lb/>
man and Mr. S. P. Alexander <lb/>
were placed in nomination for <lb/>
Governor. Judge Fowle led in <lb/>
the nice from the first to the <lb/>
twenty-second ballot, and the <lb/>
name of Mr. Alexander being <lb/>
withdrawn after that ballot, the <lb/>
fight narrowed down to Fowle <lb/>
and Stedman. The former re- <lb/>
the nomination on the <lb/>
twenty-third ballot, getting SB <lb/>
to cast for Maj. <lb/>
man. After the nomination of <lb/>
Judge Fowle Mr. Alexander was <lb/>
nominated for Lieut.-Governor <lb/>

the present incumbents <lb/>
being nominated by acclamation <lb/>
without opposition. There were <lb/>
quite a number of aspirants for <lb/>
Auditor, the names of Gen. W. <lb/>

Mr. D. E. of Moore; <lb/>
Rev. G. W. Sanderlin, of <lb/>

Skinner and Mr. Glenn withdrew <lb/>
their names, and on motion of <lb/>
Mr. Glenn Mr. Strudwick was <lb/>
nominated by acclamation. As- <lb/>
Justice Davis was <lb/>
by acclamation to fill the <lb/>
unexpired term of Judge Ashe. <lb/>
For the other two Justices quite <lb/>
a number of names were placed <lb/>
before the Convention. On the <lb/>
second ballot Judge J. E. Shep- <lb/>

declared nominated, on the third <lb/>
ballot Judge A. C. Avery <lb/>

and the upright judge <lb/>
who struggled singlehanded and <lb/>
alone to maintain the honor and <lb/>
dignity of the State when <lb/>
debauchery and <lb/>
ran riot over the land. <lb/>
As our Governor he will <lb/>
keep North Carolina up to the <lb/>
high plane upon which she now <lb/>
stands and will add new <lb/>
to her name and glory. Rev. G. <lb/>
W. Sanderlin is one of our most <lb/>
scholarly and efficient men. Be <lb/>
forced providentially, to <lb/>
abandon his chosen profession, <lb/>
the ministry, he accepted <lb/>
cultural pursuits as his calling, <lb/>
and he is one of our most pro- <lb/>
and prominent <lb/>
His nomination is an excellent <lb/>
one and will bring out a <lb/>

Without burdening the people by ex- <lb/>

Resolved, That the ability, wisdom, <lb/>

The Ticket. <lb/>
We place at our mast-head to- <lb/>
day the nominees of the State <lb/>
Democratic Convention, and <lb/>
from now until the 6th of No- <lb/>
we will do all in <lb/>
power for its success. The ticket <lb/>
is one which the Reflector can <lb/>
support with a great deal of <lb/>
pleasure, and it should receive <lb/>
the hearty endorsement and sup <lb/>
port of every white man in North <lb/>
Carolina. All in all it is a ticket <lb/>
of which we are proud, and is <lb/>
as good a one as could have been <lb/>
gotten out. The friends and sup- <lb/>
porters of the other gentlemen <lb/>
whose names were mentioned for <lb/>
some of the offices have pledged <lb/>
themselves to the nominees, and <lb/>
it behooves all patriotic men to <lb/>
aside personal preferences <lb/>
and work earnestly and heartily <lb/>
for the nominees. With two ex- <lb/>
Fowle, the <lb/>
nominee for Governor, and Rev. <lb/>
G. W. Sanderlin, the nominee <lb/>
for the candidates <lb/>
have been before the people of <lb/>
the State before asking their <lb/>
votes, and they are well and fa- <lb/>
therefore it is <lb/>
not necessary that we should <lb/>
mention their lives and past <lb/>
vices. They are now filling the <lb/>
positions for which they are can- <lb/>
for re-election, and the <lb/>
fact that they have received their <lb/>
nominations at the hands of the <lb/>

We again congratulate the people <lb/>
of North Carolina on the continued <lb/>
enjoyment of peace, good govern. <lb/>

Democratic administration of the <lb/>
the State has now <lb/>
been unbroken for so many years; <lb/>
upon the just and impartial enforce- <lb/>
of the law; upon the increasing <lb/>
efficiency of our common school sys- <lb/>
and the progress made in pop- <lb/>
education; upon the improve- <lb/>
enterprise manifested <lb/>
all parts of the State. We again <lb/>
challenge a comparison between this <lb/>
state of things the outrages, <lb/>
crimes and scandals which attended <lb/>
Republican ascendancy is our <lb/>
We pledge ourselves to exert <lb/>
in the future as in the past best <lb/>
efforts to promote the best interest <lb/>
of the people of all sections of the <lb/>
State. Affirming adherence to <lb/>
Democratic principles as heretofore <lb/>
enunciated in the platforms of the <lb/>
party, it is hereby <lb/>
Resolved, That no government Las <lb/>
the right to burden its people with <lb/>
taxes the amount required <lb/>
to pay its necessary expenses and <lb/>
gradually extinguish its public debt; <lb/>
and that whenever the revenues, <lb/>
however derived exceed this amount, <lb/>
t hey should be reduced, so as to avoid <lb/>
a surplus in the treasury. That any <lb/>
system of which <lb/>
the payment of a premium of <lb/>
by the government on each fl, <lb/>
of its bonds, taken up with the <lb/>
millions that would otherwise lie <lb/>
idle in its vaults, and paid to bond- <lb/>
holders who purchased, many in- <lb/>
stances, at less than par, is <lb/>
oppressive and iniquitous and <lb/>
should be refunded. The course of <lb/>
our Democratic Representatives in <lb/>
Congress, in their efforts to give re. <lb/>
lief to the people from burdensome <lb/>
internal revenue and tariff taxation, <lb/>
meets with the approval of the <lb/>
Democratic of this State and <lb/>
we <lb/>
they find it impossible to give to our <lb/>
people all the relief they <lb/>
support any just and practical meas- <lb/>
presented in Congress that will <lb/>
afford a practical relief such <lb/>
existing burden. <lb/>
Resolved, That while the details <lb/>
the methods by which the <lb/>
tariff shall be <lb/>
ally reached are subject which the <lb/>
representatives of our people at the <lb/>
national capital must be trusted to <lb/>
adjust, we think the customs duties <lb/>
should be levied for the production <lb/>
of public revenue, and the <lb/>
nations in their adjustment should <lb/>
be such as will place the highest <lb/>
rates on luxuries and the lowest on <lb/>
the necessaries of life, distribute as <lb/>
equally as possible the unavoidable <lb/>
burdens of taxation, and confer the <lb/>
greatest good on the greatest <lb/>

s i In your last issue <lb/>
see a letter from Superintendent, <lb/>
Finger, to county Superintendents, <lb/>
regard to Normal Schools; and <lb/>
in noticing the list of Normals, and <lb/>
the time of opening and closing <lb/>
them, I there is not a single <lb/>
Normal School, for the white race, <lb/>
in the State that opens before the <lb/>
3rd, of July, and some of them <lb/>
till near the last of August. Now, <lb/>
I wish to ask. what are the Normals <lb/>
for I And of course the answer will <lb/>
be, for the benefit of the poor <lb/>
of the State, who have not the <lb/>
means fee educate themselves <lb/>
Then why should the normals be <lb/>
kept the very time when <lb/>
more poor children can attend the <lb/>
public Schools than at any other <lb/>
time the year T For it is a <lb/>
well fact that more children <lb/>
attend the public Schools the <lb/>
districts during the months of <lb/>
July August, any other <lb/>
two months in the year; yet <lb/>
our Superintendents or those control- <lb/>
ling the Normals, persist in having <lb/>
them at that very time. Why is this t <lb/>
Is it because our Superintendents <lb/>
have never thought of the matter <lb/>
or is it because they do not care <lb/>
If is the cause, I think it is <lb/>
about time for the to take the <lb/>
matter consideration abolish <lb/>
the office of Superintendent <lb/>
or the Normal Schools, or both; and <lb/>
let the money which goes to them, <lb/>
go directly to the public Schools and <lb/>
mis , the <lb/>
If we are to have Normal <lb/>
Schools, the argument is to be <lb/>
maintained that they are for <lb/>
of the children instead of the <lb/>
teachers and Superintendent by all <lb/>
means let them close by the middle <lb/>
of July. . <lb/>

We wish him every success <lb/>
in his position and feel sure he will <lb/>

It is time spring chickens were <lb/>
making their appearance in market. <lb/>
Wonder if it will require a spring, <lb/>

testimonial of the enterprise of <lb/>

A Young Men's Christian <lb/>
was organized last night. It <lb/>
was too near the hour of going to <lb/>
press for us to make any report of <lb/>
it this week. <lb/>
We hope our readers throughout <lb/>
the county will come to <lb/>
pared to pay us some more money <lb/>
their subscription when they at- <lb/>
tend Court. <lb/>
The steamer Greenville will give <lb/>
excursion rates from Washington to <lb/>
persons desiring to attend the com- <lb/>
exercises of Greenville <lb/>

During the last week a book, <lb/>
has <lb/>
disappeared from the <lb/>
office. Whoever has it will confer <lb/>
a favor by returning it at once. <lb/>
Thanks are in order for a bucket <lb/>
of nice honey in the comb, which <lb/>
that excellent woman, Mrs. W. R. <lb/>
very kindly sent us on <lb/>
last Friday. It was greatly enjoyed. <lb/>
We are requested to that <lb/>
Mr. M. C Smith, of Swift Creek <lb/>
township, will be a candidate before <lb/>
the next Convention of the Demo <lb/>
party of Pitt county the <lb/>
office of Register of Deeds. <lb/>
Many have taken the advantage <lb/>
of our low offer to send the <lb/>

cents. There is room for more <lb/>
names and we hope to swell our list <lb/>
considerably during Court week. <lb/>
The M. E. Sunday School of this <lb/>
town has one of the best libraries <lb/>
that any town in the State can <lb/>
boast. And it is admirably con- <lb/>
ducted, the method for giving out <lb/>
the books and keeping a of <lb/>
them being nowhere surpassed. <lb/>
A system of deposit cards is used. <lb/>
A very handsome tablet to the <lb/>
memory of the late Mr. R. A. Starkey <lb/>
has been placed in <lb/>
by the Sunday School class of which <lb/>
he was a faithful and beloved <lb/>
There are many who cherish <lb/>
the memory of a friend who was so <lb/>
true as Robert Starkey. <lb/>

A Smart Calf. <lb/>
We learn that a right amusing <lb/>
incident occurred at the home of <lb/>
Mr. S. M. Jones, near Bethel, last <lb/>
week. Among his cattle was a calf <lb/>
that seemed to possess a very <lb/>
great dislike to being roped at milk- <lb/>
time and always made quite a <lb/>
to do when the rope was adjusted. <lb/>
One morning Mrs. Jones went out <lb/>
to attend milking and upon <lb/>
looking in the accustomed place for <lb/>
the rope failed to find it. While <lb/>
the search for it was going on the <lb/>
call thought, perhaps, to get more <lb/>
than his share of the some- <lb/>
thing seemed to interfere with the <lb/>
imbibing process, and bis peculiar <lb/>
act ions attracted attention to him, <lb/>
whereupon it was discovered that <lb/>
the calf bad swallowed the rope but <lb/>
failed to make a complete job of it. <lb/>
as the noose was hanging from one <lb/>
corner of his mouth. The noose was <lb/>
laid hold of and a steady pull brought <lb/>
the rope to light. The calf is <lb/>
amused and don't swallow <lb/>
any more ropes to evade being tied. <lb/>
Instead of the regular preaching <lb/>
services in the Baptist Church at <lb/>
o'clock next morning, the <lb/>
children of Sunbeam Missionary So <lb/>
will have an interesting <lb/>
to which the public is invited. <lb/>
Services were held in all the <lb/>
churches town on last Sunday <lb/>
morning. Two persons were added <lb/>
to the membership of the Methodist <lb/>
Church, were received as <lb/>
candidates for baptism at the <lb/>
Church. The recent meetings <lb/>
have awakened a religious interest <lb/>
in community influence of <lb/>
which we hope will be long felt. <lb/>
The protracted meeting at Allen's <lb/>
School continues with much <lb/>
interest. At this writing there <lb/>
have been about twenty conversions <lb/>
and scores of persons ask for prayers <lb/>
at nearly every service. Ten have <lb/>
given in their names to unite with <lb/>
with the church. Rev. Mr. <lb/>
had to return to his charge in Ham- <lb/>
on Thursday, and Mr. <lb/>
has had no aid since that time. But <lb/>
good work goes on. <lb/>
Sled. <lb/>
The sad intelligence reached <lb/>
Greenville on last Thursday evening <lb/>
of the death of Mrs. Elizabeth Res <lb/>
wife of J. T. Esq., <lb/>
which occurred near in <lb/>
Beaufort county, on Thursday <lb/>
morning, after an illness of twelve <lb/>
days with typhoid fever. Mrs. Res- <lb/>
is better known throughout this <lb/>
community as Miss Bettie Buck, <lb/>

Pennsylvania will join <lb/>

will be no differences of opinion in <lb/>

would be enough to nominate, and <lb/>
the thought is that such candidates <lb/>
as. have been mentioned will not <lb/>
further press their claims in the light <lb/>
of recent events. <lb/>
The Philadelphia Times sums it <lb/>
up that Governor Gray, of Indiana, <lb/>
General of Illinois, and <lb/>
of the Pension Ex-Congress- <lb/>
man Morrison, of Illinois, and Sec- <lb/>
of the Interior of Wis- <lb/>
have heretofore been <lb/>
to be most promising of the <lb/>
Vice Presidential candidates, and <lb/>
some thought has been given to <lb/>
necessity of having a candidate <lb/>
from Indiana, but the idea has <lb/>
been abandoned. the <lb/>
highest Republican circles there is <lb/>
no honest expectation of carrying <lb/>
for possible candidate, <lb/>
more particularly Elaine <lb/>
bead the ticket. <lb/>
One of the biggest in <lb/>
the country and who may be <lb/>
next national chairman of his party, <lb/>
in speaking of the matter <lb/>
made these <lb/>
Elaine be the nominee Indiana will <lb/>
be no longer a debatable State. He <lb/>
would be beaten votes, and at <lb/>
the same time would place some of <lb/>
States in Republican column <lb/>
upon debatable It is <lb/>
that the leading Democrats <lb/>
feel perfectly safe about Indiana and <lb/>
in pressing appeal to <lb/>
entire country and not to section or <lb/>
fraction. The nomination of <lb/>
man, think, will sweep away <lb/>
all petty wars and and <lb/>
party for a vigorous and <lb/>
aggressive campaign. <lb/>
The coming candidate is a Virgin- <lb/>
by birth, but has passed all of <lb/>
his seventy five years of his <lb/>
six, within borders of the State <lb/>
of Ohio. The ex Senator entered <lb/>
public life as a Representative to <lb/>
the Congress. At <lb/>
age of be was elected a Judge of <lb/>
Supreme Court of Ohio, and <lb/>
soon afterwards became the Supreme <lb/>
Justice. lie was elected Senator in <lb/>
1868 and after serving until 1881 <lb/>
was defeated by John Sherman. <lb/>
Senator was a <lb/>
nous figure in the Senate and his <lb/>
old fashioned, red bandanna was <lb/>
known from Maine to California <lb/>
and recognized as a sort of symbol <lb/>
of and forward <lb/>
Democracy. Senator of <lb/>
Vermont, and Senator <lb/>
were last personal friends, <lb/>
politically as wide apart as poles. <lb/>
Money In Cotton Stalks. <lb/>
Atlanta Constitution. <lb/>
For several weeks there have <lb/>
been on exhibition in office of <lb/>
the clerk of the Superior Court <lb/>
of pulp made of bulls and <lb/>
stalks of the cotton plant. pulp <lb/>
is as white as snow and can lie con- <lb/>
ratted into the finest writing paper. <lb/>
It is regarded as valuable and is the <lb/>
product of parts of the cotton plant <lb/>
hitherto deemed valueless. <lb/>
The process by which it is made <lb/>
is new. It is a process by which the <lb/>
substances of the halls and <lb/>
seed are dissolved. By this process <lb/>
over per cent of the is ex- <lb/>
from the bulls which have <lb/>
been regarded as fie only for in <lb/>
the mills or for feed and fen <lb/>
purposes, and which were sold for <lb/>
four dollars a ton. These converted <lb/>
into pulp will be worth lour times as <lb/>
much or about forty dollars a ton. <lb/>
From stalks usually left in the <lb/>
fields to rot this new process utilizes <lb/>
about per cent of at a very <lb/>
small expense. It has been settled <lb/>
that there are fertilizing properties <lb/>
in oil of cotton seed and it <lb/>
Is asserted that will not <lb/>
decompose for six years and cannot <lb/>
be used as a fertilizer. This is why <lb/>
woody matter eliminated from the <lb/>
stalk and hull is much more <lb/>
hie as a decomposing fertilizer than <lb/>
the entire seed. By the same pro <lb/>
the plant and its <lb/>
cousin, the stalk, is <lb/>
met and overcome. <lb/>
ting process the was <lb/>
and torn out by a slow and <lb/>
process. In the new <lb/>
is simply dissolved out <lb/>
and snowy films of the <lb/>
and the tawnier threads of sugar <lb/>
cane are coaxed out as easy as the <lb/>
infantile kitten to its milk. These <lb/>
specimens have been shown to <lb/>
prominent citizens of Atlanta by <lb/>
Walter. who has bought all <lb/>
rights for the entire Mr. <lb/>
Forbes takes pleasure and pride in <lb/>
showing samples and explain- <lb/>
the modus operandi of the won- <lb/>
process. Among the <lb/>
mens are four or five varieties of <lb/>
pulp extracted from the cotton bulls, <lb/>
from the stalk, from the and <lb/>
of the cotton mills from the <lb/>
cactus plant, from the saw <lb/>
to and the plant. <lb/>
Forbes is brimful of <lb/>
and does not hesitate to say <lb/>
that the new process will revolution <lb/>
the methods of the cotton plan- <lb/>
lie believes it will make the <lb/>
cotton crop per cent more <lb/>
than it now is. Mr. Forbes has <lb/>
been all through Texas, Louisiana. <lb/>
Mississippi Arkansas and he <lb/>
met with encouragement every- <lb/>
where, lie contemplates establish- <lb/>
mills at a dozen places in <lb/>
South. Of course Atlanta is of <lb/>
these points. Moneyed men of this <lb/>
city, to whom he has explained the <lb/>
nature of the invention and shown <lb/>
the products, have expressed their <lb/>
confidence in his prise and will <lb/>
co operate with him in pushing it <lb/>
forward. <lb/>

The idea the U- <lb/>
S. Senate, taken from Baltimore <lb/>
Sun, is considered of so much <lb/>
that we reproduce it <lb/>
these columns. It Should <lb/>
Mr. Cleveland be bis own <lb/>
March next it will be desirable, <lb/>
in the interest of the policy to which <lb/>
bis administration will be committed, <lb/>
that he should no longer be confront <lb/>
ed by a hostile majority the Sen- <lb/>
ate. The importance and dignity of <lb/>
the Senate itself would be enhanced <lb/>
if it were brought into harmony with <lb/>
the Executive the lower house, <lb/>
and should devote itself to its prop- <lb/>
work, small political schemes, <lb/>
with a view of promoting the inter- <lb/>
of a party. The fate of the fish- <lb/>
treaty shows how the Senate <lb/>
bring itself to subordinate a <lb/>
great national interest to partisan <lb/>
considerations when opposed in pol- <lb/>
to the President and to <lb/>
House of Under <lb/>
these circumstances it is worth <lb/>
while to calculate the probabilities <lb/>

elected for new terms. The <lb/>
of two of the retiring <lb/>
can Senators have been one <lb/>
them being a Republican and <lb/>
other, Mr. of a <lb/>
Democrat, who succeeds Mr. Riddle <lb/>
berger. This gain of one Senator, <lb/>
other things being equal, may have <lb/>
important results, if not <lb/>
by the loss of the Democratic <lb/>
Senator from Few Jersey. <lb/>
eleven Democrats whose successors <lb/>
have pot vet been chosen are all, <lb/>
with from the South <lb/>
where Democratic Legislatures are <lb/>
to be expected. Practically the <lb/>
Democrats have only to hold the <lb/>
New Jersey to make <lb/>
Senate a tie, and in that case if <lb/>
elect a Democratic Vice-Pros- <lb/>
next November the control of <lb/>
the Senate would fall to their hands. <lb/>
Oregon is considered a doubtful <lb/>
State. There was a split in lie- <lb/>
publican party of that State at tho <lb/>
last senatorial election, with the re- <lb/>
that Mr. Mitchell was elected by <lb/>
Democratic votes. The present Gov- <lb/>
of Oregon is a <lb/>
favorable circumstance in the <lb/>
ion of Democratic arithmeticians. <lb/>
On the assumption, then, that the <lb/>
Democrats will capture a <lb/>
ship in Oregon, and retain the one <lb/>
have in New Jersey, exist- <lb/>
division of the Re- <lb/>
publicans to <lb/>
be reserved. A majority of two <lb/>

Vice the <lb/>
most that Democrats can expect. <lb/>
It would be enough, however, for <lb/>
practical purposes, there is go <lb/>
to that the <lb/>
of the country would worry itself <lb/>
over the narrowness of margin <lb/>
