THE DURHAM DALLY GLOBE, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 1. The Durham Daily Globe By AL FAIKBROTIIER. A CONFESSION. The Globe Is printed every even ingSunday excepted. It prints all the local news ; it prints three col umns of editorial slush daily. The Globe is independent not neutral. It is honest and fearless and fair. It recognizes no faction, ring or clique. It talks politics when it feels like it, and will point out an abuse, no matter in which party it may be found. It is not conceited, but ex pects to make enemies and it will not be satisfied unless it does. It will oppose Wrong and always commend Kigbt with as much vigor as it is able to command TnE Globe invites comparison with other pa lters published in the South. Its religion is TO DO GOOD. Its politics is to Build Up the South. The Globe accords to every living person the right to an opinion, and will respect it, but at the same time it demands the right to ex press its own opinion and does not care whether itia respected or not. In the upbuilding of Durham and in the fight for the New South, The Globe will always le found right. On other questions it will try to be right, but being human may err. It asks the patronage of all classes, and promises decent treatment to all citizens who deserve decent treatment. It is not muzzled. It is owned by the editor and he will pay his bills. It is not a mendicant and is not turning a hand-organ labeled, "I am blind." If you want it, we want you to have it. If you don't want it, you had better not take it. The price is six dollars a year fifty cents per month and we want the cash in advance if you have it with you. DUK1IA1H, N. C. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1800. Have you registered? Wait for Thanksgiving. The Globe continues to increase in t he matter of circulation. Had Gkady lived the New South would be further advanced than it now is. A fte ii to-night there will be but one more evening to devote to politics. And it is well. The street cars will soon be running We then all can take a ride. Wait for the street cars. And now it is a wood famine. This suggests the thought a wood yard run exclusive would pay in Durham. This is the first day of November two more months in the year of 1890, and some old cuss should remark : How times fly. The state of Tennessee has been vis ited by a great snow storm. Rather early for the South to catch the beautiful, but it came. The building and loan association will help this town. It will be a profitable investment to all who go into it, and will especially help the poor man. Mu. Turner did not speak at the court house last night. There was no audience and the electric light did not shine. This is a tuff old world. Raleigh wants a new hotel ; Winston wants a new hotel ; Durham is talking about a new hotel and it would seem that people were getting hungry. This weather is good enough for us. It beats the world, and a few sample copies of it should be sent West and North. It would pay large returns. A tobacco trust has been formed at Louisville with a capital of $4,000,000. This is to control the prices on leaf to bacco, but the trust will not make it. The King of Holland has been pro nounced insane. He probably did not like the job of holding down a throne, lie should have sold the throne at a junk shop and made arrangements to take life easy. Advertisers are coming to see about the mammoth edition of The Weekly Globe and they are going into it. This four weeks edition will not only be the neatest paper ever printed in Durham couty but will give to advertisers a larger circulation. This fact we stand ready to prove. Stanley and his bride have sailed for Amerca. Mr. Stanley's lectures will be interesting, and will be doubly so if he euters into a defense of himself. The charges of his bull-dozing in the dark continent grow stronger and stronger. To date Mr. Stanley has maintained a rigid silence. , Govenor Campbell, of Ohio, who made the legislature come to time, is the hero of the Buckeye state. lie is out now showing up what he terms republi can frauds with all the vigor of his soul. The republicans are following him, showing up what they are pleased to term democratic frauds. And so the mad world wags away. While you are waiting for Durham to boom, go and write your name for a few shares of stock in the Mutual Manufac turing company. This is the way to show that you have faith in your own town, and when Manager Haasf. goes to in vite strangers to co-operate, the Durham list will aid very materially. Go write your name at once. The terms are easy and the investment is safe. The men or ganizing the company are well known in Durham, and there can be nothing in the scheme but a good business proposition. AN ETEX 3IOVTH. TnE Globe has been running under the present management just one month to-night. During the month it has ac complished about all that any newspaper could accomplish in thirty days. It has been talked about, and the general impres sion up to date is that it is a winner. The subscription books are still open, and any man suffering with indigestion, or who is bothered with that "tired feeling," will find relief by taking a few copies of The Globe. The following testimonial, un solicited, is sufficient: Winston, N. C., Oct. 21, '90. Editor Globe: I had lost the use of my lungs and had not been able to breathe for thirteen years. I was troubled with worms and night-horse. I also had the tuberculosus, the heaves and the influenza. I took two copies of your excellent house hold magazine, and yesterday my lungs were so strong that by merely blowing on boiler iron I cottld cnt a hole through it. Please send me another copy. Yours in the faith, Darby Smith. Hundreds of such testimonials could be printed, but we know where to draw the line. WHirriNG POST NEEDED. When tax-payers awake to the fact that they have enough to do without pay ing the board and lodging of every petty offender, for several months, then a leg islature of this state will introduce the old time whipping post. Take for in stance : Yesterday a negro was accused of stealing a lamp chimney. The law is plain and the fellow was thrown in jail to await his trial at the superior court in January. The tax-payer accordingly boards and clothes the fellow for over three months. Then they give him a trial at another expense, and if guilty, as it looks, he goes to the penitentiary. Sup pose the case that the negro was in hard lines; was lazy and shiftless as so many of them are. He perhaps would jump at the chance of going to jail and remain ing there in idlessness until January. It has gotten to be that but very few of the negroes feel disgraced because of a so journ in jail. On the contrary they come from their cells and are at once social lions. There is no shame no good has been accomplished. But suppose the whipping post was in vogue? Suppose that a man who stole a lamp chimney would be publicly whip ped and receive enough lashes to make him smart for six weeks? Why the ex pense would be very light, and there would be less crime. The severer the punishment the less the crime this is true over all the world. In China if a bank president or cashier absconds, he is beheaded. No matter what explanation he wants to make he is beheaded and that ends it. And so the history is that for hundreds of years there have been no defalcations. The cashier and the president remain in their places of business and carry their heads sbout with them. The Globe knows that a whipping post is the caper and it should be in vogue over the entire country. A wife beater, especially, should be whipped pub licly, and for ever" blow he struck his wife he should receive five hundred. The world grows slack on some things while it gets seyere on others. A whipping post in this state would save the tax-payers thousands of dollars. THE SCHOOL KEPOICT. In another column the school report for the second month is published. The roll of honor is included, and we notice that times have not changed any, in one particular at least, since the old man who writes this went to school some himself. That is to say there are more girls on the roll of honor than there are boys. Jrst why this is we cannot determine, but the little girls aro always better than the lit tle boys, just the same as women are al ways better than men. It seems as though in the economy of nature, the girls, who are to become our women, were made better, and the boys are inferior w hen it comes to being nice and good. It has been many days since we went to school the first lime. Many, many days and mountains of sorrow and clouds of re gret dim and obscure the path between the Then and the Now. With light heart and tripping step, w e carried our little primer, and with sister walked one bright spring morning out passed Ben tley's blacksmith shop and entered the little school house with its rude benches and its noisy little boys who had arrived in advance of us. Mother had dressed us in a new waist in those days kids did not wear suspenders until they were ten or twelve years of age our face was clean and our aspiration led us away beyond. Until we got inside the build- iuT. all the world was ours. But arneas ley, dirty faced boy, a year older than ourself, perhaps, with a siouch hat tucked in and pulled down over hi dirty mug, wearing red topped boots and blue jean clothes, saw us and doubtless mentally said "there's a jay." He had his mouth rilled with chewing gum, we called it wax, then, and he said something to us that caused a laugh and we why we cried ! The heart climbed up in the throat, and school life became a burden from that day on until we became acquainted with the gang; with its little deceits; its slang; its simple, yet in those days, seem ingly strong cuss words; its quarrels, its hair-pulling and its delight in torment ing the new boy at school. We bent pins and the new boy would sit down on them; we would lie to tbe teacher when she accused us of doing it in short we were a boy at school ourself and our name did not appear as often on the roll of honor as did sister's and we guess its the same yet. We all have had our school days and we all had fun then. In these new fan gled times, these days of patent seats ard patent desks; the "scientific" books and rules which teachers are forced to accept, we suppose there is some sport for the kid but the kid missed it not living several years ago, and having fun as we had it. TO THE VOTERS. It seems to be a style of journalism in North Carolina to assume that people generally do not know how vote. Ac cordingly The Globe, as the custodian of the state's morals and prosperity, ven tures some advice. It is this : Tuesday is election day. Go to the polls, if you have registered. (Did you register?) Read over the tickets care fully and then walk up and cast your ballot for whomsoever you please. If yoa want to vote for a rascal, if any ras cals are running for office, suit yourself. If you want to vote for honest men, if any are running, suit yourself. You should be the judge. If you do not know the candidates personally you know the principles they are pledged to represent. Then vote as you please and the coun try will be safe. If 37ou vote for one party or another party your vote cannot effect the ma chinery of government. There is, be hind all individuals and all parties, the supreme majesty of the law and before that all rogues must finally come. If a party is successful and betrays its trust or betrays the people, the agents of that party will be brought to time. It is none of our business, but we would advise you to vote for men whom you believe to be honest and capable. When you do this your duty has been performed. Do not believe radical news papers or radical speakers on either side. If you are in doubt vote as you please. There is no danger, no matter how it goes. This paper would always vote for a white man but it has no advice to give. Suit yourself. A PAINLESS HEART THROB. Our good friend Henry Blount throws out in his weekly Wilson Mirror several gobs of thought which he calls heart throbs. They doubtless make him pant, but his heart throbs do not hold a can dle to a bundle of bread and molasses gush which is printed this week in the Gastonia Gazette, under the caption of "Farewell to a False Lover." The verses are regular geysers of gush. They were written at Stanley Creek and the hippo DOttamus which sweats blood never had a harder job than the author of the j wretched rhyme. The second jag of the second stanza reads : The happy past I will not mar . With tears of sad regret. Nor say when you are gone afar, "I grieve that e'er met." Now, who in the world ever read any thing that struck the heart with a harder or a colder or a duller thud ? Imagine a woman panting and screaming and groan ing because her ear met. But there is no use to talk. The vigilance committee should organize and strike out and bring back the false lover. He should be hanged in every town in the state and his clammy corpse sent back to Stanley Creek and given to the young poetess who has poured her soul out in these steer-melting goblets. The grass will sigh over her grave some day ; the winds will sob, and the rain the cold rain will fall over the little mound that covers the heart which the false lover yanked out by the long, lank roots. Justice should arm itself with a horse pistual and flj' to the deso late scene on Stanley Creek. AT RANDOM. The McKinley bill is very bad. But of talks on it we've had a fill The thing that makes us feci so sad. Is YOUR unpaid sutscription bill. Colonel Pete Bhiggs is now trying to make people believe that be was the original Wil uak Tell. He claims that he and Colonel Robert Carr were in Switzerland on a towu lot booming expedition, and that the boom fizzled and they runout of money. In order to raise money he would place an apple on Colonel Cai r"s head and shoot an arrow through it, charging a small admission fee. From this fact the story grew as it has been read in the Fourth reader. Colonel Bkioos says that Colonel Carr always called him Bill Unices, and when they were discussing how they woaMret back to America, Colosel j Robert, in answer to Colonel Pete's ques tion, merely said, "William tell I can't." Have you voted? If not, have you regis tered ? The cool winds chill the heart of the ice cart driver, and he now sits shivering on his box, a hue nosed victim of des pair; the striking words "use Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup" stare him in the face.
