An Example Worthy to be Fol-
lowed.
We saw recently that the
county Alliance had re-
solved to take no part in the
tics of that county, and will permit
no candidate to use the Alliance as
a means of securing a nomination
for office in the county. This ac-
on the part of the
burg Alliance is very wise
and proper, and deserves to be fol-
lowed by other county Alliances
in the State. Such action is best
for the Alliance and best for the
Democratic party. It would be a
dangerous stroke of politics for the
Alliance in any county to under-
take to nominate only Alliance
Democrats. It would jeopardize
the success of the Democratic tick
et and invite a defeat of the plans
and purposes of the Alliance itself.
Take Pitt county, for instance.
We suppose Alliance is
composed of a little more one-
third of the Democratic voters.
If it should happen that only Al-
men were nominated for the
county offices, could it be expect-
ed that there would be that
feeling in the party
as would insure success We
need to have the utmost harmony
in Democratic ranks if victory is to
perch upon our banner. There
are five thousand voters in Pitt
county, and the Democrats only
have a margin of about one
and fifty votes. The relative
strength of the two parties is near-
the same, but the Democratic
ticket can always win if the right
men are nominated. The
Ton suggests that the best and
most competent men be nominated
regardless of the fact whether they
belong to the Alliance or not, and
in selecting good, reliable men
neither the of the Alli-
nor the Democratic party
will suffer any harm.

To the people of Greenville and
country.
At a public meeting held in
last the undersigned having been
appointed a committee to
pond with teachers and to secure a
suitable person to open a male
school of high grade in the town of
Greenville beg leave to advise the
public that, after much
and investigation, we have
secured the services of Walter
F. Mathews. Prof. Mat news comes
tons highly a scholar
teacher and a Christian gentleman
and we take pleasure commend
him to the confidence, esteem
of the public.
He assumes control of the school
on bis own responsibility and he is
therefore dependent upon the pat-
of the public for his support
and tor the efficiency of the school.
We therefore hope the people will
give to this school such generous
support and united good will as
will make it a school of which the
tin- people may look for a proper
place the education of their sons.
It. will be seen by his published
rates that he has made his charges
tuition very low and think
the patrons will appreciate this
effort on bis part to meet them in a
liberal spirit.
Many of our people have
subscribed money to repair
the buildings. The money will be
collected and the necessary repairs
made at by Messrs. John
and C. A. White to whom we.
beg that the will make
immediate payment so that the
school may be opened promptly on
the 1st day of September.

delegates, left here Monday afternoon
for Elizabeth City to attend the

They were taken over to

Plymouth. It was hard to tell how
the Pitt delegation stood it
left home or how they were going to
vote after they got to the convention.
But several of them promise to
graph the Tuesday eve-
what the convention had done
or was doing, so if the reader to-day
finds a telegram published elsewhere
in the paper he will know some
gate was heard from, and vice versa.
They Both Premised.
Last Friday evening Gov. Jarvis

Convention at Elizabeth
City. They were talking over the
two occasions. As they were bidding
peek, other good-bye Mr. re-
Governor, don't let
them nominate me for Congress

Governor replied, make that
promise on condition that you make
me one. Don't let the State Alliance
endorse me against They
both promised and parted amid a
laugh.

The bad weather last week caused
some to be made at tobacco
curing. Mr. C. Rountree tells us

this tobacco is not entirely ruined,

A very beautiful sample of tobacco
was brought us Saturday by Mr. J.
W. Martin, a specimen of his own
curing. Mr. Martin lives on
Creek and says his tobacco patch is
but a short distance from the creek,
which proves that lands over there
adapted to the growth of fine
tobacco. This is the best curing
have yet seen made entirely by a Pitt
county man without the of an
experienced curer.

THE OCEAN NEW IDEA
IN FOB

New Aug, 1800.
Four transatlantic steamers
harbor on Saturday, and
about a dozen more sailed
the week. This practically cons
eludes the outgoing rush for the
season, hereafter the steamers
will be more heavily loaded coming
the other way. In connection
it may be noted that the number of
people annually take a to

while the annoyances of the voyage
end the time required are constant-
growing smaller. And the pro-
in this direction will no
be greatly increased when plan
is carried out of running a line of
steamers from

This scheme is perhaps much more

understood. Part of the idea is the
p tunnel under the North
River, across the city ISA. street,
and under the East River to Long
Island. This is do little job, but
if it is ever an accomplished fact

Chicago to London with two

THE REBATE SOCIETY.
Quite method of

membership, it is almost
to say, is composed entirely of
women. Every one who joins is
given a ticket certifying that she is

purchase that amounts to one dollar

entered into the arrangements,
it is likely that will follow. I

A WEIGHTY DECIDED.
At last New Yolk has been drawn
into controversy and the all-absorb
question, is Mis.
has been settled in a Solomon like
fashion. The question first assumed
an important position in the gay
town of Newport, older
Mrs. Astor the Mrs,
Astor both demanded that all letters
delivered to
the respective residence of each. It
didn't require much pondering
the post master at Newport to decide
that it was impossible to comply
with both requests, so it seems the
matter was referred to Postmaster
Van of New York. And Post-
master Van decides that letters
addressed shall not
be at all, unless the ad-
dress contains the number of a par-
house. Otherwise the letters
will be returned to the Dead
Letter Office. In so as the
U. S. Post Office is concerned
does not exist.

Philosophy In Coaches.
A room without a couch at some
sort is only half furnished. life is lull
of ups and downs, all that saves
the sanity of the mentally jaded and
physically exhausted fortune fighter is
the periodical good cry and the mo-
loss of consciousness the
up stairs lounge or the old sofa in the
sitting room. There are times when
so many of the things that distract as
could be straightened out and way
made clear if one only had a long, com-
conch on whose soft bosom he
could throw himself, boots and brains,
stretch his weary frame, unmindful of
tidies and tapestries, close his tired
eyes, relax the tension of his muscles
and give his harassed mind a chance.
Ten minutes of this soothing narcotic,
when the head throbs, the soul yearns
for endless, dreamless, eternal rest and
the hands involuntarily reach out for
cold lead, would make the vision clear,
the nerves steady, the heart light and
the star of hope shine again.
There isn't a doubt that the longing
to die is mistaken for the need of a nap.
Instead of the immortality of the soul
business man and working women want
regular and systematic doses of dozing,
and after a mossy bank in the of
an old oak that succeeding Junes have
converted into a tenement of songsters,
there is nothing that can approach a
big or a low, long conch placed in
a corner tired nature can
her face to the wall and snooze or
sleep the gloom. New York

A New Preventer.
A new kind of mechanism for
venting smoke has been tried under
boilers with satisfactory results, the
principle being in this case, as in others,
the supplying of the furnace with the
proper amount of air at the proper spot.
The apparatus consists of a cast iron
cylinder, six inches in extend-
horizontally clear across the
box, about six inches above the grate
bars and immediately in front of and
below the boilers; in the cylinder are
two rows of apertures, about
inches long and half an inch wide, the
cylinder itself being divided in the mid-
by a solid partition. At each end
of this arrangement is an opening
through the wall of the fire box into
which a steam jet forces air from with-
out, and the air, playing on the bed of
coals, through the slits in the cylinder,
induces an almost perfect combustion,
consuming all the volatile gases and
carbon which ordinarily escape in the
form of York Telegram.
The New Discovery.
You have heard your friends and
neighbors talking about it. You may

from personal experience just how good
