The deluge appears to be com
ing. Wildcat financiering is al
ready smashing banks all over
the country. People have lack
ol confidence in the administra
tion, and this is the cause of a
rush on a bank, and the bank is
compelled to close its doors. The
leading Democratic newspaper
of the South says that things are
growing very uncertain.
The Jackson llearld says that
Joe Bumgarner believes that the
earth is llat, and wants George
Brown, the teacher at Givens
Station, to believe with him and
teach his scholars that theory.
Bumgarner is a school director,
and because Brown would not
acceed to his request, broke up
a spelling, and will have to an
swer to the common pleas court
for so doing.
We desire to inform Jackson
county that she is not alone in
having deciples of the "flat
earth" theory. A "learned law
yer and a patriarchal phonog
raph er of this city are both in
sympathy with the flat doctrine.
Seldom in the history of the
country has there been so many
bank failures in the same length
of tim e as occurred last week.
But the country will survive.
The Democratic party has really
no financial policy that the coun
try can depend upon and this
may cause a temporary embar
rassment which- will only last
until the people have an oppor
tunity to correct the mistake of
'92 and place the government
once more in the hands of the
party that established, its credit,
II ? ??
and gave it a financial policy that
was as grand as the country was
commercially great
Mr. Joseph Rosier was elect
ed County Superintendent on
Tuesday. The vote cast was
very small and it was plainly
evident that the people took very
little interest in the election or
the result
Mr. Rosier has an opportuni
ty to make for himself a splendid
reputation. The field is a fruit
ful one and the harvest ought to
be tempting. Mr. Rosier is
young, popular and progressive
and as County Superintendent, it
is to be hoped that he will lend
his best energies to elevate our
schools.
Ma Arthur Clark will not
act as County Superintendert
this year, but he certainly ne'jd
not be ashamed of tne support
that his fellow citizens gave him.
Every place where he was known
he received a splendid vote. At
his home, where a man is never
over estimated, his vote showed
his popularity and the high esti
mate his neighbors place upon
his ability.
At Allegliney, N. 0., a young
man courted a girl and she agreed
to marry him. He went to a
magistrate and procured the
license and went back, and to his
sorrow his intended had died. Ho
then made love to her younger
sister and she consented to take
liim for good or bad, so he went
back to the magistrate and claim
ed to him that he was mistaken :
n the name, and had the license
:hanged, and now they are man
tnd wife.

' "There are prosaic men and women,
and tlierc are matter-of-fact dogs," says
a writer in the London Spectator. "Tor
purely business purposes the.v are often
the best," headds.und tells a little story
to prove the fact:
"We onco owned an excellent retriev
ing spaniel of the simple order of mind,
without * grain of humor. This dog
accompanied us unasked when we
wanted to shoot a bullfinch In the gar
den to stuff. The gun went off, and the
poor bullfinch droppeiL Now this dog
hod been used, when the gun was fired,
to go and look for a dead or wounded
rabbit. So. Instead of looking under
the apple tree, ho disappeared Into the
hedge, und in a few minutes he returned
with a rabbit In his mouth! So much
for the value of a matter-of-fact dog."
II l? Reflection.
"Mamma," said Jamie, mysteriously,
"did I ever have a littlo brother that
fell into the well?"
No." said ids mamma. "Why?"
"Why. I looked Into the well this
morning, and there was a little fellow
down there looked just like me."?Har
