The fig.it be- tweon the leaders of the Republicans cansed bv administration officeholders this city, is one which grea-tly pleases the -Democrats, and they are not siow to every advantage pos-I si'ole of the constantly weakening po- sitiuii of that party. Last Monday's election and vote in-j dicates that the Democratic party of Southnort is united, that the colored vote is not solid, also that the bitter feeling among the leading Republicans vim which will not be easily healed, but is likely to cut the party two. Office holding patronage, here as well elsewhere in North Carolina, is the chain of love which binds a certain following to vote as the bosses dictate. The fight here is between the office holders and non-office holders of the Republicans, with the percentage of course in the favor of those, who can deal out the rewards. The Democrats are in a strong position here just now and it only requires good party man- agWiitfiF to continue to grow in strength and power.

The Democratic party in this city at present control the situation, but they must not imagine that this control is theirs to hold without future efforts. Hold fast to what. is already secured, and let the newly elected Mayor and Board of Aldermen show bv an honorable record and wise policy management that they mean to administer city affairs for the good or every one, and there will, bono need of fear that the party in power cannot continue to hold the goodwill of the people. The City administration while favoring no one should nevertheless be distinctly Democratic. The following were elected on Monday last by majorities ranging from 50 to 83 Mayor M.

The lovers of base ball who did not witness the game at the Park on last aturday missed quite a treat. The game was oetween tne "rats ana Dougherty of B. W.

S. R. doing the captaincy for the Slims, ami Gordon of 'Bouillon" fame acting the same capacity tor the Fats. The lavoc commenced about i o'clock, and for two hours the slaughter was kept! 1 1 j- 1 i up, and only irem sneer exnausuon was the contest ended. Appended will be found an account of the game by innings First innings Dougherty at the bat for the Slims.

After two or three fruitless attempts to break the bat against the air, D. countered on the sphere and sent a daisy to "Time" Gordon at short stop, who in his efforts to stop it, turned -a back somersault, but landed on his feet in time to see the ball go by him. Pyke of the Slims being next at the bat, with apparent ease raised a sky-scraper which netted a home run. The applause was vociferous, Pyke mo Jestly acknowl edging by raising his recently imported "hair protector." Hub Fullwood made a great effort but was retired at first by a well thrown ball from J. A.

Pullan, who had stopped the wild career of the leather from F's bat, i.e. by sitting down upon it. Tom Morse at the bat with fire in his eye. Morse seemed determined to do or die, as with mighty lunge he struck the ball, knocking the cover clear off the "yarn." The umpire however decided he was out. as the finances of the club could not stand such a drain.

7 The side being out the Fats came to the bat. "Clam" Jones made the effort of his life and sent a sand sifter to right field for two bags. '-Time" Gordon coming next, flattened the globe on Gene Guthrie's chest. J. A.

Pullan now to the stick and by a well directed drive to left field made first base in ample time. The bases now being full the excitement was intense, as Boullion" Gordon came forward, and after two strikes, one could have heard the steam whistle at the Mill if it had been blowing, so still was the crowd. Like lightning came the b'ali from pitcher Stevens, back went Gordon's bat, away flew the conical to third base, it struck the saw-dust receptacle, rebounded to the "bread basket" of "Time'' Gordon, doubling him up, and cavorted tp the cuticle of Clam Jones' leffmiasticator." When the dust cleared away "Time" Gordon was seen prostrate, "Clam" Jones ath wart him "Clams on Time" (See?) The disabled condition of the nine being now complete, the umpire de cided to call the game, stretchers be ing provided for the maimed and injured. The "Slims," we understand were badly used up, especially Dough- erty, who has been compelled to use a water mattress for several nights. The clubs will play again next Saturday and all who wish to have a real good time would do well to be pres ent.
