The Year's Work Greenville, N. C. THE To the appears or the last time dozing the year 1890. As we our pencil to . , j indite the last item for the a V of relief escapes us at I that the year's work is every of life needs have some goal ahead t, buoy him upward-to .----- him to forward There are the occasional mile posts against which he can rest for a few gather him to take a ; start on the next succeeding Christmas is on hand again.

Instead of a day of thanksgiving and praise to God for his great love and kindness towards fallen man, it is turned by a great many into a of revelry and But we must recollect that human nature has always been, is, and always will be human nature, and we must not expect perfection. So let us all take it as a day of rest and enjoyment, for it is nothing but right that we should rejoice be glad. Men of all after the worry, vexation and anxiety of a year need a season of real free from all care. Our schools are closed for a whole and we hope the school will enjoy themselves. In- deed we feel sure that the average school boy will have his share fun and frolic. After four months of study and worry over books of various kinds, let him. as well as others, have his rest. Let him take it and enjoy it, return to his work with light heart and a good conscience. determined to do a better year's work next year than the past. And the teachers, too, poor, patient creatures. rest. After their hard and work, after the small pay, and little sympathy r , or I the store and room, cause his mind is constantly run- forward to the close of the season his accounts will be bin paid off and his old ledger laid aside. The editor is not like other folks. He, though incessantly surround- ed by duties extremely irksome, looks joyously through all to the time when the last paper for the year is issued and all left for him to do is to collect some bills, draw the line, count up his cash, smallest task of kick out a few dead beats and turn over a new leaf ready for a new year. And so we find ourselves to-day, the anticipations of the year most realized. In looking back through year just past there is cause for congratulation, that all the shoals of embarrassment and quicksands of debt have been avoided, and the annual voyage has been a prosperous one. The Reflector not made money enough to start a bank or to endow a college, but it Las paid its printers every Saturday night, always be- our first it baa met its bills as they fell due, it has pro for those who looked to it for a support, it owes no man any- thing but what it is able to pay. it has enough ahead to enjoy a right good Christmas and buy rations for two weeks. But, to speak seriously, to con- duct a country newspaper, make it worthy the name and acceptable to the people, is no idle play. There is hard worn about it that those uninitiated cannot realize, and we look back through the upon the scores of nighs in which the oil has been burned, almost as a dream. that this was intended only when the States failed to make such reg and was not intended to give Congress control of elections, i When several States satisfied the constitution they passed that Congress shall not in any manner interfere with times, place, or manner of holding except when the Legislature of any State shall neglect, refuse or be disabled by invasion or re- to prescribe the same, and North Carolina refused to ratify it on account of that clause. For a hundred years this principle was carefully guarded, but now a party is in control and has driven the people from its ranks, it seeks thus to override the spirit and principles of the constitution in order to keep itself in power. are glad that the more con- clement of the can is opposed to that it is very probable that enough of them will combine with the Demo- to defeat the measure. come to see us, we are one away. If yon want a nice Christmas present for your who ought to enjoy a vacation r. better People of all professions, of all axes, of all ages, and of all colors seem to Christmas above all But above all whom enjoy Christmas the young J are the ones. Well do me remember the days of our boyhood, how fondly we looked forward to the coming of Santa Clans, how impatiently we awaited the com- of Christmas, and counted the A M at this writing, which we real- is not a It is just this kind of work that brought the Reflector to where it stands to- day, yet we do not speak of this boastfully or with egotism, for we j believe any man of backed up by plenty of en- I and pluck could have as well, especially when his lot is cast among such an en- people as are the pat- of the Ami t those who have patronized Since our last issue, in which we said something of the Third we see that the call for a in has been and a committee of live from each of the labor called to consider the sub- We are glad this has been done and think it a decided victory for the conservative element of the organizations We hope there will be no party organized as we see no necessity for such an action.

And now when we see the small child running about with his merry face, tooting his horn, and hailing his friends. what Old Sandy brought we almost wish we were a boy again to help them enjoy the fun of the happiest days of life. And last but not least we must come in for our of Christmas During the past year we and our printers have served our patrons faithfully, and now we propose to take a holiday. And next year we hope to still do faithful work for one and all. A peep at the goods shows that there is enough in store for all who wish to have something nice, no one needs to have a dull time Christmas- We hope that every body will join in with us in a sea- son of rest and rejoicing.

Until a few days ago we were somewhat gloomy fearing that the Force Bill, advocated by Harrison, Reed, Lodge, Frye, Hoar Co., would become a law but now mat- seem to be brightening up a little. The Democrats are deter mined to fight it to the bitter end, and many of the Republicans seem to be giving away in their sup port. It has been known all along that some of the Republicans were opposed to it, but last Friday Mr. Stewart of Nevada came oat and boldly made a speech in to it, in which he takes a very sensible view. He opposed it on the ground that it would cause great race trouble in the South and would cause great damage to both the white man and the black man. Mr. Stewart was not one of the members counted on by the Democrats as opposed to it. As to the constitutionality of the bill the Philadelphia Record has an able comment on Senator Gray's speech in which he exposes of the Republican plea that the clause, States shall scribe the time place, and manner of holding elections, the Con- may make or alter such reg Senator Gray showed sends of a pleasant and lo tin- editor I lie its reader-.
