New ‘cases are reported every day avd the fever spreads to naw places. Governor Russell on Friday suspended the two Wilsons a8 Railroad Commissions and ap- -pointee L. C, Caldwell and J. M. Pearson in their stead. The old commissioners refused positively to surrender the offices and the matter will be tested throngh the emma irbegesnientorcnirortne morgue a7 courts. The report comes from Provi- Jerce. R. I., that when labcrers were removing a day cr two ago the rains of the Masonic temple that was burned a year or more ago, they found a smouldering fire that burst into flame as son as air was admitted to tke embers. Postal Banks at Washington. Assistant Secretary Spaulding, of the Treasury department at Washington was interviewed on the subject of postal-savings banks the otber day by a Chicago Record correspondent. He said: “T do not think the government ought to enter the banking busi- ness in competition with private parties, but the postal-savings| bank need not do this. As I understand the purpese of the advocates ofthis system. it is to accommodate certain small de- vosiiors who could not in most casesreach benks and who dis- sipace their small earnings under present conditions. If this sys- tem reaches such people it will prove a great benefit to them. Postal-savings barks open a way for insignificant depositors to acoginulate and become of appre- ciible value to the depositors. In this way such banks are an incentive for econowy ane induce thrift. Self respect accompanies the possession of a little meney, and sucu a system, therefore, tends to better citizenship. It also tends to place considerable money at the disposal of the government which otherwise wuld be lost both to the govern ment and the citizen. lt seems to me that the plan ought to be werked out to great advantage to everybody concerned.’ Third. Assistant General Merritt said to the same correspondent : “The people should be encour- aged in habits of thrift and economy, and no better way of accomplishing that result can be ‘devised than by offering them a tly secure and reliable . sayings bank, where small depos. its can be placed atinterest. The bit of economy once formed ‘Tapidly grow and spread, and tal.-s vings banks will prove ecess from the day they are o Postmaster. Do Not Lease the Canviote. eA mae There appears to be eule une reason fcr leasing the peniten- tiarv convicts to @ syndicate, and that is that the administration cannot or will not have this instt- tution so managed that it is nota scandal and a budren to the tax-- payers. The penitentiary, under Demoacritic administrations, was self-supperting and a credit to the State. Now it is overrrn with Governor’s favorites, and accusations cf the most serious and scandalous nature are made against its officers without draw- ing any denial. The proposition to farm out the convicts ought not to be con- sidered. If a syndicate can make money from them, so can the State, and to turn them over to nersons whose only purpose it will be to get the most from them with the least possible return offers endless opportunity for abuse, downright cruelty and ecandal without end. The expe- rience of other States confirms this view, and the eommerdation that nae heretofore been made of North Carolina’s convict system, when it was under Democratic control, ought toa suggest that, instead of changing to 4 system condemned in all experience, & return be made to the erononical and humene management thai preceded the rresent exhibition of incompetercy and extraya- gance.—Asheville Citizen. As To Advertising Harper’: Weekly, we see in & contemporary, “thinks that the most notable thing in modern journalism ig the charm which has come to the advertisements.” Without any purpose to “talk shop” at this time, we may be permitted to c>ncur in tnis dec- laration. ‘Lhe advertisement has come to ba one of the very most in‘eresting feacures of the news- paper. Men and women read the advertising quite as much as they read the news columns. Both read trem for business reasons, and no advertiser offers a bargain in the modern news: paper that it is not immediately snapped up. ‘his 18 the result ota change cf method, In for mer years the merchant put his advertisement in the loca: news paper and it gave bis name and announced that he kent constantly on hand a large and well selected stock of dry gvode. groceries, hardware, general merchandise and everything usually kept in a a first class store. This convered vothing that the community did not aiready know perfectly well, and this advertisement stood from cne year’s eod to another, un offence to the eye, and a source of no protit to the udver- tiser All this has been changed. The business man now presents a specific article or articles to the public, and the public is always on the lookout for them. Adyer- tising, from being general, has become special, aud 1 has so much the element of news, and has euch an intensely practical side, that no newspaper read- er feels that he or she has gotten the worth of the paper unless the advertising columns have been read. This is one of the evolutions of the times, and one of the features of this prac - tical and resourceful age.—Char: lotte Ubserver. ee | Mr. and Mrs. Peter Lynch, of Scottsburg, Ind., have 23 chil- dren, 12 sons and 11 daughters, all alive and well, Jus uy @ Wu, tux of cascarets, the finest live. and bowel 1egu ator ever male The Sage: of Bunyan was in viewed by our reporter.

The Norfolk Ledger save: “Asa Saunders, a negro, who in July last attempted to kiJl a woman with whom helived, with an axe, created a sensation in the Hustings Court today while veing tried fur the offense. The jury had just retired to deliberate on their verdict, and the prisoner was seated before Judge Watts, near where counsel have thelr seats. He was seven to re&ch under a table and pick np the axe with which his crime hal been committed, and before his object could be frustrated, struck him- self three times in the forehesd ; making a bad flesh wound. Sheriffs Smith and Abbott took the weavon away from Saunders before further damage could be done, and about this time tke jury returned a verdict giying him ten years in the penttentiary. Affected Her Mind Only The “civine healer” cured one case yesterday—that of a colored woman who claimed tv have had rheumutism. She declares she was well and could get abcut as well as any ove of her years. Late iu the afternoon she went to a store and was telling about it, when someone stiggested she was wellby no means and was then limping. This talk was taken up avd in ten minutes the cld woman was so bad off that she had to be hauled home. She vowed she had been “hoodooa” avd was wrathy over it.-—Graensboro Rac- ord. Mt Year Without Summer Seventy-ning years ago was the year without a summer says aD exchange. Frost occurrad every month in the year 1816, Ice formed a half inch thick in May, Snow fell tothe depth of three incl es iu New York, and also in Massachusetts in June.
