Charles W. Fairbanks, candidate for vice-president on the Republican ticket, has had his say in a letter of acceptance. Improvement is the order of the day with North Carolina newspapers.

THE Today closes the first week of the September term of court, and every who has had business in court, or who has been in the pres- of the court, recognizes the fact that he W.

A Salisbury woman accumulated her savings for years and kept them hid in a coffee pot under the kitchen floor. When the amount saved had reached about a thousand dollars somebody stole the pot. There good banks in Salisbury where the money could have been taken care of. In all his conduct and rulings the high sense of duty and justice is prominent. Only criminal cases have been tried, but the good order, a proper regard for the law and the best moral sentiment in the community is predominant in his administration. With a of fairness to all, high or low he has proven to the people of Pitt county that he is capable to a high degree as a judge. He has made a splendid and lasting impression upon the minds and hearts of the best people of the county. COTTON CONGRESS. This is the time of year when the get plenty of advice about holding their cotton. Perhaps the best thing to be told them is to sell their cotton when they please. Roosevelt has folded his tent at Oyster Pay and moved back to Washington. His next move will be to vacate the white house March 4th to make room for Judge Parker. Since the Atlantic North Carolina railroad has been leased all the preceding matters in the courts have been adjusted and withdrawn. Now let Mr. Howland push ahead with bis improvements. The Democratic state convention of New York nominated D. C. Her- rick, of Albany, for governor. There were several factions in the tie., but they settled their differences by ogre g I F nick. The d V. S , ail ex . kl he i t CT of Nothing would please the Demo- of Pitt county better than for the Republicans, pendents to all get together and bring out an opposition ticket. It will tend to solidify the true Demo- and bring out a full party vote. It will also show just where some men are and keep the party being bothered with them in future. The Republicans, too. are anxious to do something in the interest of the dear people, and have issued a call for a county convention on the first of October. they in conjunction with the Populist and the own candidate self appointed to right his great wrongs, can bring out enough of the stay-at- home Democrats to show them how big a majority Pitt can bury the whole push under. We regret very much that Col. A. Sugg is prevented from; going to St. Louis to attend the cotton con- Wake Forest Sept, An awful tragedy took place miles west of here to-day. A white man named Geo. Tilley, Jiving two miles up the river from Falls, shot his wife and mother with a shot gun. Mrs Tilley was in the bed with her two old baby when her picked up the gun and indicated that he was go- to fire. Thinking that Tilley was going to shoot the baby the mother threw herself over it, and the load grazed her shoulder. Tilley then opened fire upon his mother-in-law, Mrs Joe Lowery. The load took effect in Mrs Lottery's right shoulder. She ran into the yard and cried for help, then she entered the house turning, Tilley shot her again in the back of the head, thus rendering her conscious. Mrs. Lottery's condition is serious, and it is thought that she will die. The shock may also result in the death of Mrs. Tilley. The only cause that can be attributed for the rash act is that he became angry with his wife because her picture off to enlarged and did not send his. He has been gruff and has had little to say for the past month. He left immediately after the shooting and had not been cap lured at last accounts. AN EXCITED ANGLER. He Lost His Head For Awhile, but Landed His Fish. If there is any place requiring a cool head it is when one is in a light boat or canoe angling for heavy fish in deep or swift water. Undue excitement has cost many a life such circumstances. A curious example of the outcome of undue excitement has just been related to me by a fact,, the individual himself. Unfortunately for my friend, though a man of thirty-live years,. yet only once previous to this had he experienced the joys of angling. Business look him up near the pine woods, and between trains, aft- his business had been transacted, . he was invited by two of his to try the And- they started, he throwing out his. lure and within a few moments get- ting a vicious tug at his line which bent his rod and set his reel screech- The tug on the line, the bend- of the rod and the screeching,. whirring reel were too much for him, and, giving a spasmodic leap, ha- cleared the boat and landed feet first on the bottom of the lake, that was covered with five feet of water,, holding fast meanwhile to the rod. The cool water calmed his nerves at once, and, being a six footer, lie ply elevated his chin and arms and. in his own fashion to the rod and reel. The fish be- to leap and run. When he turn- ed his head toward the boat to ask for advice as to the proper way to handle the fish, no one was to be seen in the boat.
