As this visit is understood to be purely one of affection­ ate duty to his grand mother, that was quite the tiling. He seems to be a rather thoughtful young man. Those who recall his speech­ es last winter will agree with us—especially that one in which he described his thoughts as he stood on the deck of his yacht, uncovered in the presence of the stars and awed before the majesty of nature, reflecting on his duty to his subjects, and what should be the prime ob­ ject of his career of life. By the way, women always have a band in affairs of state, and it is said the principal woman who influencies Imperial affairs is an American lady. Having married an elderly prince some years ago, on hisjdeath causes them not only to be easy and pleasant to take, but preserves their medi­ cinal integrity in all climates and for any reasonable length of time. The best family medicine, Ayer's Pills are, also, unsurpassed for the use of travelers, soldiers, sailors, campers, and pioneers. In some of the most critical cases, when all other remedies have failed, Ayer's Pills prove effective. " In the summer of 1864 I was sent to the Annapolis hospital, suffering with chronic diarrhea. While there, I became so re­ duced in strength that I could not speak and was compelled to write everything I wanted to say. I was then having some 25 or 30 stools per day. The doctors ordered a medi­ cine that I was satisfied would be of no benefit to me. I did not take it, but per­ suaded my nurse to get me some of Dr. Ayer's Pills. About two o'clock In the after­ noon I took six of these pills, and by mid­ night began to feel better. In the morning the doctors came again, and after deciding that my symptoms were more favorable, gave me a different medicine, which I did not use, but took four more of the pills instead. The next day the doctors came to see me, and thought I was doing nicely, (and so did I). I then took one pill a day for a week. At the end of that time, I considered myself cured and that Ayer's Pills had saved my life. I was then weak, but had no return of the disease, and gained in strength as fast as could be expected."—F. C. Luce, Late Lieut. 56th liegt. Mass. Vol. Infantry. "Ayer's Pills are The Best I have ever used for headaches, and they act like a charm in relieving any disagree­ able sensation in the stomach after eating." — Mrs. M. J. Ferguson, Pullens, Va.

The republican party is doomed. When the republi­ cans regained their power af­ ter having been out for four years, conservative men who voted the republican ticket hoped and believed that the managers of the victorious party would conduct affairs so wisely and conservatively as to keep control of the gov eminent indefinitely. But their hopes were dissipated early in the administration! In the first place, the repub­ lican President turned out to be exactly what the dem­ ocrats bad said of him—a very small man under an an­ cestral hat. Then came the rule of Reed—the worst high handed boss that ever at­ tracted attention in Wash­ ington. Congress under Reed seems to have tried its best to go to audacious ex­ tremes. No Congress since the war has been half so ex­ pensive to the country. This is a boodle Congress and ev­ ery republican boodler is going to get his share of the The MdCinley bill will in­ crease the taxes enormously and the force bill is intended to crush a growing section of the country. The people are becoming thoroughly aroused against this reckless gang in Wash­ ington, and the tidal wave of Democracy that sweeps over the United States next Nov­ ember will be even bigger than that which swept the reckless republicans away in the congressional elections of 1882. —Richmond State. ADVICE TO A YOUNG MAN. And remember my son, you have to work. Whether you handle a pick or a pen, a wheel barrow or a set of books, digging ditches or ed­ iting a, paper, ringing an auc­ tion bell or writing funny tilings, you must work: If you look around my son, you will see the men who are most able to live the rest of their days without work are the men who work the hard­ est. Don't be afraid of kill­ ing yourself with overwork. It is beyond your power to do that on the sunny side of thirty. They die sometimes, but its because they quit work at 6 p. in. and dontget home until 2 a. rn. Its the interval that kills, m.^ son. The work gives you an appe­ tite for your meals, it lends solidity to your slumbers, it gives you a perfect and grate fill appreciation of a holiday. There aie young meii who do not work, my son; but the world is not proud of them. It does not know their names even; it simply speaks of them as old So-and-so's hoys. Nobody likes them; the great busy world does nob know that they are there. So find out what you want to be and do, my son, and take off your coat and make a dust in the world. The busier you are, the less devil­ try you will be apt to get in­ to, the sweeter will be your sleep, the brighter and hap­ pier your holidays, and the lietter satisfied will the world be with you.—Burdette. �Watauga Democrat, lujfhorty, Editor.

Carson is e clerk of the House Commite (>n Ways and Means; he is in e very best position to be thor ighly advised as to the reveles and appropriations, and he known as one of the most conrvativeand reliable news pa­ ir correspondents, and his prentation of the financial condion of the nation is simply apalling. The people of the country who >r eight years passed have been Jrcing all parties to declare in ivor of reducing the Treasury irplus by reducing taxes must ow face the fearful truth that le profligacy of the present Con ress has already destroyed the surplus and bankrupted the Treasu y nearly #100,000,000in dependent of the proposed reducof fifty millions of revenue by the low tariff bill, and if the bill shall pass, the deficit will be increased fully fifty millions more, with in­ creased taxes on very many of the common necessaries ol life. Never in the history of partisan folly has such midsummer mad­ ness been exhibited by any par­ ty in power; and if there is any patriotism left in Republican lea^ dership in Washington, a sudden and peremptory halt will be call­ ed upon Republican suicide. Ne­ ro's fiddling over burning Rome has never had so bold a counter­ part as is presented by party leaders seeking to force anincrased tax tariff bill that reduces the revenues over fifty million dol­ lars, and the force election bill to cost twelve million dollars more, when sheer profligacy has already bankrupted the Treasury nearly one hundred millions ol dollars." The above is from a relia­ ble Republican paper, the Philadelphia Times, and we think sufficient to cause even our friend Crisp to quit talk­ ing about patriotism or quit the Radical party. No, the surplus is no long­ er a question; but is in the cold abstraction of death. It is no longer a condition. It has ceased to be a theory and will shortly cease to be a dream, and now in the lan­ guage of one of old, we would say to our friend Crisp, "Phy sician heal thyself." Dixie, Wash., Aug. 10th, 1890. Editor Democrat: 1 thought that a short let­ ter from far away Washing­ ton might be acceptable in your columns, I will venture to furnish you a few dots that I trust may not be en­ tirely void of interest to your many readers. I like the new State of Washington very much in­ deed. The soil is productive and the climate favorable. There is still some good wild land in the State owned by the Northern Pacific railroad which can be bought on easy terms. Crops in this country are good and the farmers seem to be hopeful of a good yield. Many of the farmers will har­ vest from eight to sixteen hundred acres of wheat. The actual cost of living in this State is somewhat greater than in the Eastern States. Groceries and clothing are much more expensive here than in the East. Farm hands are paid from #20 to #30 per month, including board. Sheep herders get from #30 to #40 per month, while carpenters get splendid wages, and brick masons and plasterers command the highest wages. Those who wish to locate in the most healthful climate, and best wheat growing country in the U. S., would do well to wend their way to Washing­ ton. ALLEN W. HOLSCLAW. Meat Camp, N.

The spring was found look­ ing blue in the water near the middle of the basin, directly over the hole through which water rises, about two weeks ago.

Then said John unto Thom­ as, his lord; "Though shalt take with thee a rod, and the length thereof shall be 216 inches, and it shall come to pass tha A t the rod shall be laid across the public high­ way from the township line near the house of Stephen, even unto the city of Balti­ more, and thou shalt see by the rod where the law is not fulfilled." It came to passaf ter the rod had been laid the decision of John was quickly made. Afterwards I was or­ dered to go to Soda Hill, to the house of Joel, and behold John ltuffin was there, ready to assist Thomas in any thing that was necessary. And it came to pass in the third year of the reign of Thomas, in the eighth month and the twentieth day of the month, that the word of Thomas went forth saying: "Go work the public high­ ways within three days or I will have to report thee." The Dramatic Company gave another entertainment, consisting of tableaux, on Friday last. I observed that the youngsters of both sexes were present and occupied front seats. The "show" as one expressed it to me caused them to stare with widely opened eyes and gasping mouths, and on reaching home began to narrate the sights they had seen, and could not give place to the embrace of Soranus till the wee small hours of the night. Thus was opened to their vision something beyond anything they had ever dreamed of or imagined. OVERSEER.

Bacon, Ayer's Sarsaparilla The Best Blood Medicine So say Leading Physicians and Druggists, and their opin­ ion is indorsed by thousands cured by it of Scrofula, Ec­ zema, Erysipelas, and other diseases of the blood, "Ayer's Sarsaparilla lias won Its repu­ tation by years of valuable service to the community. It is the best." — R. S. Lang, Druggist, 212 Merrimack st., Lowell, Mass. Dr. W. P. Wright, Paw Paw Ford, Tenn., says: "In my practice, I invariably pre­ scribe Ayer's Sarsaparilla for chronic dis­ eases of the blood." Dr. R. R. Boyle, Third and Oxford sts., Philadelphia, Pa., writes: "For two years I have prescribed Ayer's Sarsaparilla in numerous instauces, and I find it highly efficacious in the treatment of all disorders of the bloftd." L. M. Robinson, Pharmacist, Sabina, O., certifies : "Ayer's Sarsaparilla has always been a great seller. My customers think there Is no blood-purifier equal to it." "For many years I was afflicted with scrofulous running sores, which, at last be­ came so bad the doctors advised amputating one of my legs to save my life. I began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla and soon saw an improvement. After using about two dozen bottles the sores were healed. I continue to take a few bottles of this medicine each year, for my blood, and am no longer trou­ bled with sores.

Rivers, Publisher The republican who can praise the whole of the inonopolia tic tariff bill has an India-rubber conscience, and the tiller of the soil who can support the party that fath­ ers it is sadly indifferent to his own interest. The time may come when politics may mean all that is noble and good; when a small boy will break an ap­ ple in two and give his little sister the biggest half; when a tramp will work and a stray dog won't bite, but the day will never dawn when a fly can tickle a drowsy man's nose without making him jump. Representative Tillman, of South Carolina, a brother to Gov. Tillman that is to be, is rough on the man who started the Sub Treasury plan. He says he was "a dreamer, a speculator and a scurvey politician." Hefuther says he will not vote for it because it "is crude, imprac­ ticable, unconstitutional and republican." He says if adopted it will prove "a bridge to carry the demo­ cratic party over, horse,foot and dragoon, to the repubhcan camp.—Ex. "It is a penurious kind of economy to deprive your family of a local paper. The wife doesn't get out to see and learn as does the father and children, and she is de" prived of a sense of enjoy­ ment that serves to relieve many hours of loneliness when she is alone or with the small children; and then the home paper is an educator to the children, as they will read of the people and inci­ dents with which they are ac­ quainted. There is nothing that can be introduced that will teach the children to read faster and better than the home paper." Sworn on a Dictionaiy. The democrats of the fifth Massachusetts district have nominated for Congress Mr. Sherman Hoar, a nephew of Senator Hoar, and who is a young man of talent and pluck. In his speech accept­ ing the nomination, he said : "I shall strive to win this contest because you and I be­ lieve in a revenue reform, na­ tional in its scope and in its beneficent effects, a nd because we do not believe in that unnational . republican tariff measure which will destroy the industries of one section to benefit those of another, and which, while it will enrich some manufacturers and ru­ in others, gives neither pro­ tection nor encouragement to the American workman, whose earnings will be slow­ ly taxed out of him, not sole­ ly for governmental use, but for private and party excheq uers. As a democrat, I ob­ ject to being made to con­ tribute indirectly to tli * re­ publican campaign fund by being taxed on the necessa­ ries of my life in a way that gives a small part of the sum so raised to the government, and the rest to those manu­ facturers whose fat is ulti­ mately fried out of them into the hands of Quay and Dud­ ley." We think the above is very neatly put. Cambridge, we believe, is in his district, and young Hoar will probably have considerable aid in his canvass from his associa­ tions at college. We would be glad to see him in the House offsetting there the in fluences of his uncle in the Senate chamber.—News and Observer. DON'T GIVE UP The use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. One bottle may not cure "right off" a complaint of years; persist until a cure is effected. As a general rule, improvement follows shortly after beginning the use of this medicine. With many people, the effect is immediately noticeable; but some constitutions are less susceptible to medicinal influences than others, and the curative process may, there­ fore, in such cases, be less prompt. Perse­ verance in using this remedy is sure of its reward at last. Sooner or later, the most stubboru blood diseases yield to Ayer's Sarsaparilla Does it matter what k ; nd of a book people kiss when magistrates swear their?

For Treasurer, W. E. GREENE. David F. Baird, that old Democratic Roman, and friend of the people, is on the war path for sheriff, and he will be elected by a handsome majority. If our brethren of the farm­ er's Alliance will read Grover Cleveland's last message to Congress, they will see that he touched the key note to all their troubles. The Republican ticket ap­ pointed to run by the Repub­ lican Bosses of Watauga Co., are finding little favor with the people. This is right for such methods should be seseverely rebuked. The prospects for demo­ cratic success in Watauga has not been so cheering as it is to day. If our people have done their duty in register­ ing and all will come out and vote, our success is assured. W. C. Newland, the Demo­ cratic candidate for solicitor, is an experienced and able lawyer. It would be worse than folly to elect a man to that high position who was without these qualifications. We have it from authority that is perfectly reliable that these high-sounding praises, and beautiful pen-pictures of the wTay E. Spencer Black­ burn completely used up and destroyed W. C. Newland, as was reported to the Weszern Citizen, in his speeches atBakersville and Burnsville, was written by E. Spencer Black­ burn himself.(?) He was his own reporter of his own spee ches. Now, let every body read them and keep from get ting sick, if possible. Our county canvass is go­ ing on smoothly and quietly with the exception that the Hon. Thos. iflngham, candi­ date for SuperiorCourtclerk, is making a regular RadicalRepublican-Tom Reed speech of one hour. He tells the people what a great thing the McKinley robber tariff is for the people, and that the republican party is a great reform party, etc. He goes into National and State pol­ itics, and at the wind up he tells the people that he is a candidate for Clerk. From his speech one would judge he was running for Congress, oris making the campaign for Capt. Faucette. Our people were disappoin­ ted in not having the oppor­ tunity of hearing Senator Ransoir speak on account of so much rain. Quite a crowd assembled in the court house to hear him. Mr. Spainhour made a very good speech and told us about the McKinley and Force bills and the failure of the passage of the Blair bill. The republi­ cans don't like to hear so much of this, although most of them will vote for the par­ ty that advocate it. But our present tariff laws, the vicious, iniquitous and il­ logical source of unnecesary taxation, ought to beat once revised and amended. These laws, as their primary and plain effect, raise to consum­ ers of all articles imported and subject to duty, by pre­ cisely the same paid for such duties. Thus the amount of duty measures the tax paid by those who purchase for use these imported articles. Many of these things, howev­ er, are raised or manufactur­ ed in our own country, and the duties now levied upon foreign goods and products, are called protection to these home manufactures, because they render it possible for those of our people who are manufacturers, to make these taxed articles and sell them for a price equal to that de­ manded for the imported goods that have paid custom duty—Giover Cleveland. Capt. Faucette was in Boone a few days last week but we are unable to give our readers any information as to the Captain's movements, as he is very retisent, to democrats. We learn that he was visited by three or four of the leading moguls of the republican party. They came to him by night, and remained late before depart­ ing. The Captain said he was not afraid that Dr. York would come in as a candi­ date at the last days of the campaign, and that he had instructed his friends if York had tickets at the polls on the day of election to all vote for Cowles. We have been unable to find out his friends who would do as the Capt. requests them, and if York "or some other good man" should have tickets at the polls his friends would as a rule, vote these tickets any way, and not for Cowles. We feel some sympathy for the Capt. as he appears to be a good man personally. We are sorry that one who has the respects of his fellow citi­ zens would become the tool of a party whose object is to dis-organize the democrats of the Eight District. It was natural for those republican bosses to center on a manjlil e Capt. Faucette, an honest unsuspecting citizen who was eas3' to make believe that their pretentions to­ ward him were honestly in­ tended and that they really intended to support him, and that there was no repub­ lican in the back ground. The Capt. don't believe that there is any danger of his election but he will be a bad­ ly used up man and will find it out when too late.

Editor Democrat: There was a good turnout here to day to hear the coun­ ty candidates speak. First assistant Boss, Mr. Sheriff Hayes, acted as general di­ rector of ceremonies and, ac­ cording to the pre-arranged programme, he had the can­ didates for clerk to speak last so as one Thos. /iingham could explain why the Republican party had failed to keep a single one of its many promises made to the people two .years ago. He said it was true that the /flair bill had failed to pass but that it was defeated by Democratic Senators, but that the Republican Congress had passed the McKinley tariff bill, in spite of Demo­ cratic opposition, which would prove a perfect God­ send to the farmers of this country; because it lowered the tax on everything they had to buy and increased the. tax on such articles as fancy laces, decorated crockery, Ac that were used by the rich folks, and that consequently the rich would pay most of the taxes herafter. (Repub­ lican doctrine heretofore has been that the tariff was not a tax mind you.) Such state­ ments are a direct insult to the intelligence of every ten year old boy in Watauga county, because they were known to be false. Pretty soon after this remarkable delivery there appeared a. vast number of vultures sail­ ing around over head and finally they disappeared as did the candidates in the direction of Deep Gap. Some one remarked that this was a novel occurence in this high mountain country but a very natural consequence on this occasion. "Where the (-ar­ eas is, the eagles are gather­ ed to-gether."

"For many years I was afflicted with scrofulous running sores, which, at last be­ came so bad the doctors advised amputating ono of my legs to save my life. I began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla and soon saw an improvement. After using about two dozen bottles the sores were healed.

In T«dia the great serpent Ahi (whence our word "adder"), and the dragon Vritra, who caused drought and physical evils, being therefore mere demons, were succeeded by the demi-devil, ltavana. He Is described in the Ryrnayana as having ten heads, twenty amis, copper colored eyes, and bright teeth like the young moon. Ho was a breaker of all laws, es­ pecially a ravisher. Like Satan, he is of Celestial origin, and even in his lapse so potent, by reason of former sanctity, that he made each of the gods perform some menial office for him. He bore on his great form the scars of India's thun­ derbolt and Vishnu's discus, but reigned on still until Vishnu became incarnate as Rama, by whom the royal devil was slain. The Singhalese demons (Rakshasas), over whom Ravana reigned, re­ mained. and are still dreaded (under name of Bhuts in India), but they had to wait for a long time for another chief. This was Mara, originally the Hindoo Cu­ pid, who, when Buddha preached the evil of existence, naturally (as the god of reproduction) became the adversary. Buddha believed in no deity or devil; the universe he declared without begin­ ning, destined to be without end; it was entirely bad, and the only salvation of man was to escape not merely from the earth, but from existence altogether. On this purely negative foundation Budd­ hism has built up a system in which the Hindoo deities survive as angels, help­ ful or mischievous, Mara being its Satan and Buddha its Christ. Nirvana, how­ ever, still retains for a large proportion of Buddhists its original significance—a realm of unconsciousness—conscious im­ mortality being for the bad, who will be punished by automatic torturers forjned fora their own evil desires. The Budd­ hist solution of the problem of evil is purely pessimistic. Nature is essentially bad; any appearance of good in it is an illusion which, if pursued, leads from bad to worse.—Moucure D. Conway in The Cosmopolitan. Mechanism of tlio Heart. In the human subject the average rapidity of the cardiac pulsation of an adult male is about seventy beats pei minute. These beats are more frequent as a rule in young children and in women, and there are variations within certain limits in peculiar persons owing to pecu­ liarities of organization. It would not necessarily be an abnormal sign to find in some particular individuals the habit­ ual frequency of the heart's action from sixty to sixty-five or from seventy-five to eighty per minute. As a rule, the heart's action is slower and more power­ ful in fully developed and muscular or­ ganizations, and more rapid and feeblei in those of slighter form. In animals, the range is from twenty-five tx> fortyfive in the cold blooded and fifty upward in the warm blooded animals, except iD the case of a horse, which has a very slow heart beat, only forty strokes a min­ ute. The pulsations of men and all ani­ mals differ with the sea level also. The work of a healthy human heart has been shown to equal the feat of raising fiv« tons four hundredweight one foot pei hour, or 125 tons in twenty-four hours. The excess of this work under alcohol in varying quantities is often very great. A curious calculation has been made by Dr. Richardson, giving the work oi the heart in mileage. Presuming thai the blood was thrown out of the heart at each pulsation in the proportion of 69 strokes per minute, and at the assumed force of 9 feet, the mileage of the blood through the body might be taken at 207 yards per minute, 7 miles per hour, lCf miles per day, 01,820 miles per year, o; 5,150,880 miles in a lifetime of 84 years, The number of beats of the heart in the same long life would reach the grand total of 2,809,776,000.—Medical World. Caterers and Bon Vlvanta. The late Sam Ward, one of the most eelebrated bon vivants and epicures, la said to have originated several novel forms of cooking different meats and vegetables which lie kept a profound eecret to his death. The most noted ehefs of the present day, both in Europe and America, are as indefatigable ic their experiments as are scientists. As s result nearly every one of them makes a discovery of some kind in the culinary line which he is wont to guard against publicity as sedulously as does the detec­ tive his initial clews in an important criminal investigation. In a general way cooking among the aristocratic and wealthy has undergone many manifest changes during the last two centuries. Our most popular cater­ ers would be likely to stand amazed il they could be for a brief hour translated into the Sixteenth century to witness one ef the swell banquets of that period. Then princely tables were arranged with an eye single to splendor. Notwith­ standing this they used to have delicious things to eat. Moreover, their table manners of that age must have been superior to ours in many respects, for one was required to possess a sort of in­ tuitive knowledge of the many dishes prepared simply for show's sake—to be seen, not eaten.—New York Press. A Colored Prisoner In Florida. The average negro sees no terror in the jail. It affords him a great deal of fun, unless it be in watermelon time. It is to him what going to the sea 6liore is to the Caucasian, a relief from toil, and a season of rest most thoroughly enjoyed. When Sambo emerges from this forced, but m less agreeable, sequestration of the jail, he liecomes an object of interest to his friends of the house of Ham. "When did yo' get out, Bill?" said one of them to a fellow who had just with­ drawn from a ten days' engagement with the city. "'Bout half an hour ago." "What sorter time like d'ye have?" "Fust rate; plenty to eat, nice room t< Bleep in—no one there to bother me, so 1 slep' nigh all er time. Had a white max to wait on me, too. Yes, sir, had a ilrsl class wtiite man ter bring me water, an' kerry out my slops; 'm gwine in agaia pretty soon." He seemed especially ploud of the faei that he had a white man to wait on him, and this fact greatly amused his hearers —Hamilton Jay in Detroit Free Press. A new definition of America is givsi by M. Renan. It is; "America is i wonderful country, an immense ©alditx ©pen to all races.'' ( New Orleans is in the mid­ st of a panic caused by the assassination of Chief of Po­ lice. Hennessey. It is under­ stood that lie was killed in obedience to the mandates of the Mafia, a secret Itallian association, that has killed hundreds of the Itallian citi­ zens of New Orleans. Chief Hennesey is the first Americon victim of the order, though there are very few Italian merchants in the city who have not been terorized and blackmailed by this se­ cret band of cutthroats. De­ tectives have so far been una ble to obtain any evidence against the members of the Mafia, but now that they are strikng at the very heart of the city government, and threeteng the life of the May­ or himself, nothing will be left undone to bring them to justice.

Rivers, Publisher "Killed by the Force bill," will be the epitaph put upon Mr. Harrison's political tombstone. The Yale student who at­ tacked an actress because she refused to become "mash­ ed" on him would adorn a striped suit. New York city has discov­ ered several bogus divorce factories. It would seem that nothing can escape be­ ing counterfeited. The factions on the repub­ lican side of the Senate are almost as numerous as re­ publican Senators, and there seems to be no dispositioi among them to get togeth­ er. This is quite severe winter both in this country and Europe, but no thermome­ ter has yet been made that can register the actual con­ dition of the atmosphere surrounding the men who have led the republican par­ ty into its present hopeless predica ment. The republicans have been so busy lately trying to find excuses for the action and speeches of republican-Senators that they have had no time to devote to the selec­ tion of the democratic Speak­ er of the next House of Re­ presentatives and the next national democratic ticket. Hello there! Here's anoth­ er example of what a bless­ ing a high protective tariff is to the working man. The works of Carnegie, Phipps & Co., of Pittsburgh, at the head of which is the million­ aire republican apostle of protection, Andrew Carnegie, has made a ten per cent re­ duction upon the wages of 2,'000 of its employes. That's a nice sort of midwinter pres­ ent to the men who always vote for "protection." Mr. Harrison will find, if he still presists in retaining the Force bill as his personal platform for "92 that his fol­ lowing will not amount to a corporal's guard. Public opinion, irrespective of par­ ty, has been opposed to the bill since its first introduc­ tion in the House, and the month which the Senate has thrown away upon it, at the ex pence of more important legislation, has intensified the opposition. Besides this the republican press has, al­ most without exception been indifferent about the fate of the bill. The radical republicans of the Senate may in the end succeed in putting the Force bill through, but if they do, the republican party, as a natiounl organization, is doomed. Already such pro­ gressive republican Senators as Stewart, Wolcott, Teller, and Plumb have openly and manfully served notice on jtheir party thatthey will not support the iniquitous meas­ ure, and they have the secret sympathy of a number of their republican colleagues who are trying to screw their courage up to the pitch of openly following the good example set by those gentle­ men. quietly. They remind us of a man who had swallowed an egg without breaking the shell. Hewasin a terrible state of mind, because if hejumped around, he might break the egg, and the shell would cut his stomach, and if he lay still, the egg would hatch and lie would have a, shang­ hai rooster clawing his insides." The twenty-five white men who were killed by the In­ dians at Mounded Knee Creek, were worth more to this country than every In­ dian there is in it, and the U. S. government is directly responsible for their deaths, as it has been by reason of the negligence or open conni­ vance of the agents of the government that the Indians have come into possession of the rifles and ammunition which enabled them to kill the soldiers. How long shall th s farce be kept up? The Indian spends all of his time, when on the reservations, in preparing to kill the whites, and the whites furnish them the means to do it. Turn the Indians over to the Army and they will be kept in a proper state of subjection, unless they agree to go TO work like other people, which they will never do. But what ever is done, it should be made impossible for the entire brood of Indians to kill anymore white men. That much the people have a right to demand. We, the undersigned, do hereby certify that Dr. Gen­ try is a man of good moral character and high standing. He has been a merchant at Watauga Falls about ten years, and we have never known him to ted a lie or do a licentious act, and we do not believe that there is a respec­ table person in the county who will testify to the con­ trary. We therefore recom­ mend him to all people as a man worthy of their respect and patronage, and since he has lost his house and al­ most everything had by fire we believe that the people ought to help him. We request the editor to publish this in the county pa per. The above was signed by over 120 citizens, most of whom were Dr. Gentry's nei­ ghbors.

"Ayer's Sarsaparilla has won its repu­ tation by years of valuable service to the community. It is the best." — R. S. Lang, Druggist, 212 Merrimack St., Lowell, Mass. Dr. W. P. Wright, Paw Paw Ford, Tenn., says: "In my practice, I invariably pre­ scribe Ayer's Sarsaparilla for chronic dis­ eases of the blood." Dr. R. R. Boyle, Third and Oxford sts., Philadelphia, Pa., writes ; " For two years I have prescribed Ayer's Sarsaparilla in numerous instances, and I find it highly efficacious in the treatment of all disorders of the blood." L. M. Robinson, Pharmacist, Sabina, O., certifies : "Ayer's Sarsaparilla has always been a great seller. My customers think there is no blood-purifier equal to it." "For many years I was afflicted with scrofulous running sores, which, at last be­ came so bad the doctors advised amputating one of my legs to save my life. I began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla and soon saw an improvement. After using about two dozen bottles the sores were healed. I continue to take a few bottles of this medicine each year, for my blood, and am no longer trou­ bled with sores. I have tried other reputed blood-purifiers, but none docs so much good as Ayer's Sarsaparilla."—D. A.

Jan. 12.— Let us hope that the Force bill has been permanently side-tracked. That the measure is intend ed to be applied only to the South cannot be successfully conducted and while under it the democratic party would become more powerful there, yet all of us must look upon the measure with feelings akin to awe inspired by the be­ lief that it will inestimably injure the increasing prosper­ ity of this section by creaating animosity, fostering turmoil, disorganizing labor and retarding the inflow of a pi tal. The recent election demon^trates that this alarm drew forth a sympathetic response from the silent, unpartisan / voting population of the great North. All praise to them. The policy of suspicion, in­ quisition and repression em­ bodied in the Lodge bill is so repugnant to the age we live in that the wonder is that it ever found serious lodgment in the minds of so many of the party leaders. Besides de basing manhood and debau ching the judiciary it woulc lbe a very expensive expei" ment and there is no possi bility of executing it. The pe titioners for its application and the supervisors will be difficult to round up in theo pen, and the people would spurn such inquisitors and repressors. THE PLACE FOR ALL WHO FAVOR THE FORCE BILL IS OUT OF THE SOUTHRN STATES. It is far better that we put up with Democratic rule any number of years than to per­ mit ourselves to believe in the necessity for such a law The people are yet honest and they are able and wil­ ling to right every wrong up­ on the ballot by the ballot. They are also very apt to check extreme partisan legis­ lation. They ha ve no inter­ est in the perpetuation in pow er of any special dynasty. On the contrary the drift of public sentiment is in favor of a frequent change of party rule and a short official ten­ ure. This indicates suspicion and it is not an unhealthy sign.—A. V.

He spoke to-day for a little over an hour to the most attentive Senate of the present debate. As usual, his speech was replete with wit, philosophy and po­ esy.

NASHVILLE^Tenn, Jan. 18— Governor Taylor broke the pardon record Saturday, is suing pardons during busi­ ness hours to eighteen in­ mates of the State prison. Among the number are Julius Hite, of Davidson county, who shot and killed Frank McKinley and was recently sentenced to five yea re im­ prisonment; Mercer Muskovitz, who killed Meyer Frideman in Davidson county eight years ago and was sen­ tenced to life imprisonment, and Henry Younger, of Obion county, who was sentenced to lifeirnprisonrrent for rape.

Washington, Jan. 27.—Sen a tor Stewart this morning re ceived the following telegram from Senator Stanford at new York: On general principles I am in favor of the closure rule but I am not in favor of anything that would shut out your proposed amend­ ment to the Election bill, pro­ viding it will apply only to elections for Congress. With­ out such amendment, with m3 r present views I should be' oblige to vote against the Election bill I am in favor of doing important businesspassing the Apportionment bill and Appropriation bills, whenever we can. Show this to Senator Aldrich. If it is neces­ sary, pair me accordingly. 1 shall be in Washington this evening. [Signed] LELAND STANFORD. Senator Ingalls shows, by the speech he delivered in the Senate the other day that he is occupying just now a very humble seat at the mourners bench. We congratula te oth­ er Senators; and wecongratu late other Senatorsal sinners also. We congratulate Ing­ alls, because his action shows there is hope for him. And we congrat ulate others Senator­ ial sinners because the pen­ itence of the Kansas Sena tor shows that no man is or can be outside the pale of mercy. We insist however, that Mr. Ingalls must be taken upon probation It would hardly be safe to take him into full fel­ lowship at once We never be­ fore saw such force and-beau ty in the trite couplet of the old hymn: While the lamp hold out to burn, The vilest sinner may return.

James Storey, of this city, has just received letters pat­ ent from Washington for his invention of an artificial egg. The artificial is said to re­ semble the natural produc­ tion in all particulars. The inyenter says that he can manufacture at least one carload per day at a cost of three cents per dozen, with machinery that will cost on­ ly five hundred dollars.

Sarsaparilla The Best Blood Medicine So say Leading Physicians and Druggists, and their opin­ ion is indorsed by thousands cured by it of Scrofula, Ec­ zema, Erysipelas, and other diseases of the blood. "Ayer's Sarsaparilla lias won Its repu­ tation by years of valuable service to tlia community. S. Lang, Druggist, 212 Merrimack St., Lowell, Mass. Dr. W. P. Wright, Paw Paw Ford, Tenn., says: "In my practice, I invariably pre­ scribe Ayer's Sarsaparilla for chronic dis­ eases of the blood." Dr. K. It. Boyle, Third and Oxford sts., Philadelphia, Pa., writes: " For two years I have prescribed Ayer's Sarsaparilla in numerous instances, and I find it highly efficacious in the treatment of all disorders of the blood." L. M. Robinson, Pharmacist, Sabina, O., certifies : "Ayer's Sarsaparilla lias always been a great seller. My customers think there is no blood-purifier equal to it." "For many years I was afflicted with scrofulous running sores, which, at last be­ came so bad the doctors advised amputating one of my legs to save my life. I began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla and soon saw an improvement. After using about two dozen bottles the sores were healed. I continue to take a few bottles of this medicine each year, for my blood, and am no longer trou­ bled with sores. I have tried other reputed blood-purifiers, but none does so much good as Ayer's Sarsaparilla."—D. A. Kobinson, Neal, Kansas. Don't fail to get It is the best." —11. GRAND OPENING! NSW GOODS. -o E.

We have here the small fruits such as blackberries, whortle­ berries, raspberries, currents cherries and plumbs in great quantities and of the finest quality. These berries could be made to bring a hand­ some profit if they were han­ dled as abve suggested. Why not some young men who say they can't do any good here, and want to go west, try this business? It pays wherever it has been fried, why not here? The same could be said of cabbage. If some parties would set up machinery to cut up the fine cabbage heads that grow so abundenily in Watauga,and pickel them into kraut, they could sell all that could be made and the market would demand more. We believe here is a fine field to make money on a very small capi­ tal. Will not some parties try it?

Dougherty) Editor. R C. Rivers, Publisher A DEMOCRATIC family news­ paper devoted to the interests of County, State and Nation. Pub­ lished every Thursday at Boone, Watauga County, N.C. Thursday Mar. 26th, 189J. Bloody Work in the City of New Or­ leans. On the 15th day of Oct., last, about midnight, Chief of police Hennessee, of New Or­ leans, was murdered b y a band of Italians who belongto the notorious Mafia gang. Hennessee was the most pop­ ular Chief of police the city had ever had, but he had in­ curred the enmity of the Ma­ fia by his efforts to bring them to justice. The gang whenever incensed at a citizen plotted to murder him, and generally succeeded, but it was impossible to convict any one of the crime as the jurors feared the Mafia crowd and was generally notified of the consequences if the jury votes for conviction, conse­ quently the Mafia gang in the city controled in this way the action of the jury. After the killing of Hennessee, sus­ picion at once fastened upon a number of these Italians who belonged to this famous Mafia society. They were ar­ rested and the evidence against them, or the most of them, seemed to be conclu­ sive, but to the great sur­ prise and disgust of the pub­ lic the jury returned a ver­ dict of miss-trial as to three of them and a verdict of acquital as to six of them. This verdict caused the greatest indignation among the peo­ ple, and on the morning of the 14th inst., the papers pub lished a call for a meeting of the people, to be held at the Clay statue, to take steps to vindicate the city against the mock trial of the day before. An immense crowd of the peo pie of the city assembled and among them was a majority of the most prominent citi­ zens of the city. W. S. Parkerson, one of the most prom inent lawyers in New Orleans, led the meeting and made a speech denouncing the jury and the Mafia gang. Tremen­ dous excitement prevailed, and after other speeches, the meeting voted Paikerson as their leader, who, with a crowd of 6,000 men, in solid phalanx, marched to the pris on where the murderers were still confined; battled down the doors and shot these mur derers full of lead, killing nine. After this was accomplished, Mr. Parkerson ordered the crowd to disperse at once, which it did without further demonstration. Chief Hennesse was thethir tieth victim of the Mafia for the past sixteen years, and not, in a single case has, pre­ vious to this killing, had any of these assassins been pun­ ished for their crime. The scene of the killing of these nine men is reported to have been of the most barberous that can be imagined. This Mafia gang is an oathbound murderous society, which has terrorized New Orleans so long, was organ­ ized in Italy as a political organization, which taught the members the policy of assassination to get rid of their enemies. A great num­ ber of these Italians are in different cities of America and still are fllocking to this country in great numbers and no doubt will cause fur­ ther trouble. Much is being said by the Italians against the killing of these men. The Government of Italy is inves­ tigating the matter and is demanding repreation. There is now a great excitement through out the country. We must have legislation on this matter and keep out these cut throats from our shores. GENERAL PARAGRAPHS. NEWS-PAPERS.

The Bii*ert Tax--Formal Report of Mr. THE NESTOR OF THE PRESS Busliee to Governor Fowle. Cor. Jackson Iss; e. Mr. F. II. Busbee, who, as agent of the State, secured North-Carolina's direct tax fund from Washington and conveyed it to Gov. Fowle to be refunded to those who are entitled to if, has made a formal report to the Govern­ or, in which he sets forth at length the history of the rais­ ing of the direct taxes, etc. The money having been ob­ tained, the next qusotion is, how to pay it out to the per­ sons entitled to it. There are at Washington about one hundred and fifty books con­ taining the stubs of the tax receipts which from the re­ cord upon which, as a basis, the money will have to be paid out. Properly accredi­ ted agents of the State will have to copy this record. In closing his report, Mr Busbee suggests the publication of the following statements of interest to the public: "Tire books have not yet been turned oyer to the State for examination, nor is the exact number of the books or the amount of work to be done yet ascertained. It is not possible, as yet, accura­ tely to estimate the length of time which this work will re­ quire, but it will probably be at least sixty days before the payment of claims can begin. Until the copies are received in Raleigh, there is no infor­ mation whatever in the Gov­ ernor's office concerning the names of the persons who paid the taxes, and the amount paid. The names and amounts will be sent to the counties as soon as practica­ ble. No interest upon the taxes were paid to the Gov­ ernor, and none can be paid to the tax-payers* No pen­ alties, interest or cost was refunded, and none can be paid. If the tax-payer has lost or mislaid the receipt, it will not prevent the collection of the tax, provided the name and amount appear on the stub of the receipt book and the assessment book. If the person who paid the tax is dead, the amount can be re­ funded only to the legal rep­ resentative, that is, the ad­ ministrator or executor. No widow or heir can collect it without letters of adminis­ tration." The check for the amount, $377,836.42, was yesterday deposited* at the Citizens' Na­ tional Bank. All possible fac­ ilities will be afforded claim­ ants in the collection ofthe amounts due them.—Obser­ ver. Dear Friend: As you know, I have retired to private life, seeking quiet and repose in the narrow limits of the fam­ ily circle. I mingle but little in society on account of old age and extreme deafness. I am now the only editor liv­ ing who had charge of a pa­ per in Tennessee in the year 1830. All my associate edi­ tors have been gathered to the Silent City of thedead,so that I frequently feel like one walking alone •'Some- banquet hall deserted " I can but feel the solemnity of "the reflections now crowd­ ing upon my mind—reflec­ tions which call up scenes and recollections that no other reflections can inspire, while they teach me the mutabili­ ty of all human connections, ties and associations, and the rapidity with which the liv­ ing are hastening'to the great hereafter. I know from the number of years I have lived, that 1 have already ascended the r u g* g e d hill of life's wea­ risome journey. I am depen­ ding, rapidly, on the other side, and soon, in the course of nature, must pass down on the opposite side of the lane from whence I started. I hope when the time comes for me to join my comrades of the long ago that I will have so lived that I shall be able to grasp a bright horo­ scope and, with the eye of faith, look into the vast fu­ ture and see that all will be well with me; that when my eyes look upon the sun for the last time, and the night of darkness comes on, that I will be blessed with a Chris­ tian's hope and a Christian's faith, and be enabled togath er the drapery of my conchabout me and lie down to pleas ant dreams. The future of our country is all wrapt in the greatest mystery. For more than a quarter of a century our na­ tion has been toppling on the fiery verge of ruin.

But the ped pie can and will restore the country. Already the signs point to the grandest upri­ sing* of the people since the memorable canvass of 1840. The people are moving. Sooil every mountain will send forth its torrent, every valley its flood; and lo! the ava­ lanche of the people will come —come from Main's rocky shores to California's golden strand. Come—more terri­ ble than an army with ban­ ners, detei mined, through the ballot-box, to wrest the administration of the govern meiit from the hands of the spoilers and take it back to the grass-grown path, where where our four-fathers left the imprint of their footsteps. Come, to pour their roused thunders around the crum­ bling* pillars of liberty's tem­ ple, and drive off the vandals and vampires who for many years have been sucking the life's blood of the nation, to scourge them with scorpion lash of indignation and the history of their rule will be remembered a s containing the saddest page in the book of Time. God of Nations, speed the day for justice and humanity's sake! Pardon me; I have been communing with the spirits of the mighty dead. May God bless you. Your old friend W. W. GATES. The esteemed New York Press, a leading Republican organ, tickles itself in its lit­ tle ribs and laughs a sweet, low, happy little laugh every time one of the astute Demo­ cratic Senator says that Grover Cleveland won't do for '92. If it don't stop that sort of thing the country will begin to think that G. C. is the man the Rebuplieans are afraid of. The fact ofthe mat­ ter is that the big politicians have never loved Mr. Cleve­ land very much, because he had a way of treating Sena­ tors and Governors and Gen­ erals just like they were plain, every day folks. But there are a lot of common home­ spun-people around in the backwoods and by-ways and hedges who still think Cleve­ land is the next biggest man to Barnum and old John Robinson, and it will be hard to keep them from taking off the roof when some-body calls his name at the next Democratic convention.

The word tariff is derived from Tarifa, a town of the province of Cadiz, in the sou­ thernmost part of Spaine. The town is situated upon the Strait of Gibralter. T h e town was named iovtarifibn Malek, a Moslem chief who landed upon the spot in A. D. 710. During the time of the Moorish domination in Spain blackmail was levied from this point upon all ships that passed through the Straits. The strong castle, w h i c h stood upon a rocky promon­ tory, commanding the nar­ row passage from sea to sea; and all ships were forced to come to under its frowning turrets, and pay blackmail. We have given the origin of this word to show that it is the spawn of infamy—that it was associated in its very be­ ginning with, and was the progeny of, infamous wrong. And, since the day it was first empioyed to give name to robbery and spoliation, it has been used in connection with transactions of govern­ ment, not one whit less infa­ mous in their essential prima pies, than was the blackmail levied on commerce by the Moors of Spa in. The tariff of the Y. 8. m <i system intended to operate to secure the plain robery of certain classes of men for the enrichment of other classes. Was the blackmail of the Moors of S p a i n anything more or less? We say the sys­ tem of tariff is intended to rob certain classes for the ben efit of other certain classes, because those who devised it, and those who uphold it, know that itwas precisely t his effect, and no other. The man who is in favor of a tariff, is in favor of a system that ex­ torts taxes out of the consu­ mers for the benefit of those who have articles to sell. This is the plain english of the whole matter. And the trans action is not one jot more re­ spectable now than it was a thousand years ago; and the American who supports this wicked system is not less a robber than the Moorish pro totype of long ago. Some people may think the language we use needlessly harsh. But we do not think so. What we have said is the simple truth; and it ought to have been said long ago. We do not intend that the sin of silence upon this question shall rest upon our soul. Some of our poorer fellowcitizens are being robbed by this infamous tariff system day by day, and we will not hold our peace, and let the in fa my go on. We want all the readers of the Progivssive farmer to remember, that the word tariff had its origin in infamy a thousand years ago, and has been ever since used for purposes of in­ famous exaction. — Progres­ sive farmer.

It would do the President a world of good to leave his schedule trip in the heart of the South and do a little investigating among the negroes and North ern people who have come South as republicans. The result of such investigations would be, we know, a com­ plete demolition of some of the President's ideas and we could depend on his going back to Washington in a thoughtful frame of mind and with more of a determin­ ation to be a president of all the United States than he had when he left the capital. —Asheville Citizen. Murdered Witli His Own Gnn. LITTLE ROCK , April 20.— News of the murder Wiley Whittington, a wealthy plan­ ter living across the line of Columbia county, Ark., in Louisiana, has just reached here. Whittington came over into this State to seea negro named Gus Frazier. He was on horseback and carried a shotgun. Frazier met him in front of his house, and, af­ ter some sharp words, star­ ted away, apparently, to get a gun. Whittington told him to halt, when the negro rush­ ed at Whittington, seized the gun he was carrying, wrench­ ed it from his hands, nearly dragging him from his horse. Frazier fired both barrels at him, the contents almost tearing his head from the body. Two female relatives of Whittington cried murder and begged Frazier to let them have the body, but he said he would kill them also if they touched it. Arming himself with his own gun and that of the murdered man, Frazier disappeared in the woods.

Totten, of Yale, in speaking of the pub­ lication of h i s recent math­ ematical calculation says: "Home papers have published that I predict the end of the world within this century. They mistake. That is their error, not mine, I don't think that the end will come for a million years, and I have not made any prophecy about it at all. What I did declare was that a mathematical cal­ culation founded on Biblical truth proves beyond peradventure that the Messiah will come again before the year 1900. I don't mean by this that I believe the rnillenium will begin in 1899. 1 think that is a thousand years away. I say simply that at His second coming Christ will make the world better,, as He did at his first" Dangerous to live. Discovery of Coal Near Mt. Airy. Are we safe nowhere from bacteria, some one inqsires, not even when we are sealed up in a vacuum in a glass case? Not content with show­ ing us that horrid monsters claw and fight in every drop of water we drink, scientific gentlemen have now been mi­ croscopically overhauling a hailstone and find that an infinitesimal speck of the ice contains no less than 400 to 500 bacteria. They may be the germs of smallpox, scar let fever, leprosy, naughti nessand crime. Not even ice will kill them, for they thaw out and wriggle ferociously. The invention of the micro­ scope revealed wonders to man, but it has made life a burden to nervous people. Nothing is free from microbes an.v more, nothing is pure, except the benevolent motive of one, says the same inquirer, who lends a friend fivedollars when he never expects to get it back again —Exchange. The announcement that coal has been discovered in Sury county, near Mt Airy, creates much interest in Wil­ mington. It is said the in­ dications are that it is the hardest and best quality of coal discovered in the State, and should the developments prove this correct, the dis. covery will be a very valua­ ble one for this city particu­ larly, provided, of course, that the veins aresufficienrly large to amount to anything. The rail-road and steamboat people here are especia lly con­ cerned in the discoveiy and will watch the developments with much interest. The lion. Thomas B. Reed, of Maine, lately described the McKinley bill as "a bill which has for its object the aiding of the poor by raising their wages" And yet, as the New York Times has shown, since the enactment of that infamous measure the wa­ ges of working men in all the bran ches of the protected industries have been reduced. Did anybody expect anything else? If a man can be found anywhere who real­ ly expected the McKinley bill to raise anybody's wages, he may safely be classed as not of sound mind; and those who claimed that the tariff outrage of the last Con­ gress would raise wages, can be safely clased as not of sound heart. In our secret soul we be­ lieve that a man who favors pro­ tection by the imposition of cus­ tom duties, is either incompetent to think correctly, or else he is a knave. The man who honestly thought the McKinley law would benefit wage-earners must have been born an original stupid. ButTorn Reed was not born astupid. —Progressive Farmer. The attempt to force upon the Democratic party the sil­ ver issue in 1892, will fail we hope a n d believe. I f n o t there will be certain to come a very doubtful if not a dis­ astrous campaign. The next Congress must be very con­ servative and cautious so far as the Democrats are con­ cerned if they do not wish to make headway for the Radi­ cal party. The tariff and low­ er taxes are the real slogan for the party. A fight upon other lines will be of very doubtful result. There are no free traders among Dem­ ocrats amounting to much, and it is foolish to try t o force the fight upon any such 1i ne.—Messenger.

Reminiscences of the War. Last Sunday, 26 years ago, Gen. Johnson command­ ing the Confederate Army, surrendered to Gen. Sherman. Gen. Johnson's headquar­ ters were at Greensboro. The month of April 1865 will never be forgotton by all the living Confederate Sol­ diers, under Gen's. Lee and Johnson. Gen Lee sir ren­ dered at Appomatox on the 9th and on the 26th at the Bennett house near Durham N. C. Gen's, Sherman and Johnson met and a formal surrender took place. Gen. Johnson commanded at the first great battle of the war and won a glorious victory. He commanded thelast army (East of the Missippi) that surrendered, and survived, with one exception, all the great Generals of both ar­ mies. The Regiment we be­ longed to (the 6th N. G. Cav­ alry) wasencamped at Ridgeway N. C. and we were dis­ banded on the 16th of April, it being Easter Sunday, if we mistake not. We desire to speak of a coincidence which really occured. Capt. B. R. Jk, jti^own and Lieut. S. J. Brown were mustered into service at Ridge way under Col. L. S. Baker, of the 1st N. C. CavIfifrry, in 1861, when we took up camp 1 ere Capt. Brownand Lieut.' Grsv^^ftchecl their tent on exactly the same Ispot that they occupied four years before when they took up camp and were here at the same ground, when our Reg­ iment was disbanded. Col. Baker had become Gen. Ba­ ker, and was here in com­ mand on this occasion. We will never forget our feelings and despondency on this memorable day and days that followed. Gloom and sadness, poverty and wretch­ edness stared every Confed­ erate square iu the face. Des­ olation and distruction were in the land wherever you went. The Confederate Sol­ diers had staked everything they possessed, property hon­ or, life, everything that was near and dear to them. Per­ haps no soldiers ever had more to cause gloom and d ispon dency. E very th i rig wa s now lost, nothing to gladden their hearts on returning home but on every hand were seen desolation and dis­ tress. These days are over and we hope never to return again. The southern soldiers went home and commenced to re­ build their ruined houies. To day we area happy and pros­ perous people and many of us are living still to work and improve. Our enemies then, are living also, a great number, however, as the pen­ sion rolls will disclose, but think of the different condi­ tions. When the war broke up, the Union Soldiers went back to their undisturbed homes and drew their pen­ sions that, us poor destitute Rebels help to pay- Notwith| founding all this we are glad that no Yankee ball hit us, and that we are still alive and have no malice in our hearts towardsany man.

Asheville Baptist. This is what every life is do­ ing, and like the seasons of the year and the calling of the plowman, this work goes perpetually on. There is this truth which all men should observe, and it is that no hu­ man being ever reaps except as some one has sown, and that we always reap more than we sow. We have known some people, and even some good preachers at that, to re joice greatly at the prosperi­ ty which seemed to attend their ministry, and they re­ ferred to this work with evi­ dent satisfaction, but in fact they were but reaping the fruits of others labors and sharing the results of toils a n d sorrows and sacrifices which others invested for Christ's sake. The principles which are universally observ­ ed in nature are as absolute­ ly essential in the Kingdom of the Lord, a certain amount of prepararation must pre­ cede all really satisfactory harvesting. Wehaveknown pastors to be badly underra­ ted by their people and the public, and scarcely ever re­ ceive any appreciation of their services, and yet they were doing a work of painful discipline and sacrificing toil a n d painstakingH"pastoral and pulpit work, w i t h o u t which no one need ever ex­ pect a harvest. Every human being is a sow er, and when the reaping comes, as come it surely will, the harvest will be of the very character of the seeds sown, but the dreadful t h o u g h t which forces itself upon us is that this harvest fearfully ex ceeds the sowing. Every read er well knows that the laws of the spiritual world is as true to its mission as the law of the natural world—there is a fitness of things about them both. The man who sows an act will erelong reap an habit, and every day we are scattering bro a d c a s t these acts, and some of them are good and some of them are bad. He who sows an habit is simply putting out that which goes to make up a character, and when his character is made then out of this comes the destiny of the soul. Acts are l i t t l e things—little rain drops— that is all they seem to be; but they run together and glide into each other, and then comes the habit which is like a law, fixed in its course and restless in its movements toward the for­ mation of a character whose destiny will bring to she soul an eternity of joy or woe ac­ cording to the nature of the seed which had been sown long years before. We ha ve thought of the swearer whose lips utter oath after oath. We have watched the dramdrinker as cup after cup was poured down his lips. We have studied the miser as he gathers dollar after dollar and never tires of oppressing the poor. We have watched the untiuthful man as false­ hood after falsehood was con ceived and then rolled from his mouth with an earnest­ ness deserving the truth. Yes we have looked at all these and then we have looked still beyond to that awful day when all these dreadful vices will come up to the Judgr* ert bTraging their bawest of desolation and their heri­ tage of woe, under which the soul will groan and groan and weep and weep forever and forever. We have turned aside from all these and prayed for help that every day which we lived and every hour in the day that we may have grace giv­ en us to say and do only that which will be plea sing to God and redound to the soul's good throughout great and vast Eternity. 1 have faith and hope in God for the solution of all e nigmas and doubts and dark­ ness that surround tbefuture of the colored people.

Too Much Politics. One of our farmers hailed to the editor of the Times last Tuesday on the streets of Charlotte and said: Well, Mr. Editor, I'm get­ ting sorter tired of so much politics. I thing it would be a good idea for the yiewspapers of the country to stop talking politics for about a, year and discuss the road question or education. Laws cannot be better than the people and the only way to make people better is through the efforts of good schools and churches. The editor scratched his head and after a pause re­ marked that he believed the farmer was about half right. —Mecklenburg Times.

One bottle may not cure "right off" a complaint of years; persist until a cure is effected. As a general rule, improvement follows shortly after beginning the use of this medicine. With many people, the effect is immediately noticeable; but some constitutions are less susceptible to medicinal influences than others, and the curative process may, there­ fore, in such cases, be less prompt. Perse­ verance in using tiiis remedy is sure of its reward at last. Sooner or later, the most stubborn blood diseases yield to Ayer's Sarsaparilla SUBSCRIBE FOR, ADVERTISE IN, jivWatauga DEMOCRAT.

Southern Opposition to the Third A Republican Reach After Democratic Polk Against Cleveland The Prospect of a Third Party. Protectionists. Party Convention. Col. Livingston, of Georgia, has written a letter very de­ cided in tone, in regard to the Alliance convention to be held in Cincinnatti on the 10th, of next month. In it he says that the Southern Alliancernen will not participate in the convention, and that McGrath, as President of the State Alliance of Kansas, has no authority to call it, be­ cause the whole matter was carefully considered at Odala last December, and a conven­ tion for the several farmers and labor organizations was called for February '92. The members of the Alliance who reside principally in the West, and who want a third party, appear to fay or the move­ ment for the Cincinatti con­ vention, while the Southern Alliance oppose the third par­ ty idea, so long as redress of grievances is possible within the Democratic party, and are content to wait the ac­ tion of the next Democratic House o f Representatives. Many of the members of the Alliance in the West have been life-long Republicans, a n d are indisposed to unite with the Democratic party, which in the main favors the meas­ ures they advocate, because of a mere sentiment. We are gratified at the position ta­ ken by theSouthern Alliance. It shows that the latter are earnest, and will be governed by principles, believing that the Democratic party will aid In securing the legislation desired, and willing to give that party a fair trial. The President of an organization into which so many conflict­ ing elements have entered has a very difficult office to perform. He must see that with a divided counsel the ef­ fectiveness of the organiza­ tion will be greatly neutral­ ized; and his skill will be tax­ ed to the uimost to keep its strength intact in order to throw it where it will be most effective. We under­ stand such to be the aim of the National Alliance, and to reconcile theSouthern and Western wings appear to be the c.ifficulity. There is lit­ tle, if any, apprehension but that the Democratic party and the Southern wing of the Alliance will act .conjointly in the election of a Democratic President, and if the Western wing will be governed by the same conservatism as our southern friends there will soon be a Democratic Presi­ dent and a Democratic Con­ gress, and then business will revive and times get better. —N. C. Intelligencer. The Cn pe Fea r & Ci nci n n a tt i R. R. Company have sent Col. C. J. Cowles, of this plane a map of their intended line which runs from South port by Salisbury, Wilkesboro and on to Cincinnatti. The Vice-President of the Co. is expected here soon. This company have been contem­ plating this rout tor several years. They appear to be getting down to business at last, as they have just had recorded at South port a nine million dollar mortgage for the construction of the road. W e shall be glad to see this road built.—6hrdnicle. Last night a number of pro m i nen t republicans of North Carolina met in this city for the purpose of issu­ ing a call to the people of the State requesting them in each county to take neces­ sary preliminary steps to send representatives to a meeting to be held in Ashevillefor the purpose of or­ ganizing a "State Protective Tariff League.', Hon. J. C. Pritchard, of Madison county, was elected chairman of the meeting, and J as. M. Moody, Esq., of Haywood county, was made Secretary. The object of the meeting was explained b.yMaj. W. W. Rollins and Hon. Tyre Glenn, who stated that the meeting was held for the purpose of issuing a call to the citizens of the State looking to the organization of a State Pro­ tective Tariff League; and show to the world that the time for the development of the State and her industries and great natural resources depends upon firm and con­ tinuous support of the Amer­ ican system of protection. On motion of M. L. Mott, Esq., a meeting was called by the chairman, to be held in Asheville on Wednesday, July 22, 1891, to organize the league as stated. The meeting then adjourn­ ed . —Ashe ville (ivizen. President L. L. Polk, of the National Farmers' Alli­ ance and Industrial Union, is in the city and accorded me an interview on the attitude of thejAUiance. He says]J v that his organization is strongly in favor of the free coinage of silver, and no candidate who is not in sympathy with the Alliance on this question can hope for its support next year. Hence he is opposed to the nomination of Grover Cleveland for the presidency by the democrats. On the course of the demo^ crartic party in Cougressjwxll depend largely whether Hie Alliance in the South will join in the third party movement* If the Democrats do not show a decided disposition to give the farmers what they want .nothing can keep the Southern Alliancemen in line with the party. On this point Colonel Polk speaks with a good deal of emphasis. The nomination of Mr. Cleveland on a plat­ form either ignoring or traddling the money question will, he is snre, make a third party, a necessity.—Atlanta, Ga., Dispatch. A Sound and Safe Platform. The platform adopted by the democratic State conven­ tion ? in this city last year, contains the essential princi­ ples of the Alliance, and such as are satisfactory to the members of the Democratic party who do not belong to the Alliance. It was the re­ sult of a calm, dispassionate consultation between the representatives of these two elements of democracy, and was agreed upon as just to both, and conservative of the best interest of the State. This platform is now the platform of the whole demo­ cratic party of North Caro­ lina. It is the latest official announcement of the politi­ cal principles the democratic party professes, and which it is pledged to advance. The writer accepts it as his politi­ cal chart, because it empodies the principles which the farmers nnd other business men of the State thought were sound and safe for the basis of our laws, and for guidance in the administra­ tion of the government. Let us stand upon this platform, and prove to other States that North Carolinians are governed by principles, and are not mere waifs upon the political sea.—North Caroli­ na Intelligencer. Senator Edmonds, in an in­ terview with a Star reporter at Washington says he thinks the policy of his party 7 in 1892 will continue to be what it has been-- to maintain the McKinley tariff and pass aforce hill at the first opportu­ nity. He does not think the Democrats will be carried a. way with the free coinage i ("lea. As for the Farmers Alliance movement in protest against the legislation of re­ cent years, the Senator sees no just cause for it. "A large part of it arises," he says sagely, "from intrinsic quali­ ties of the human mind."One of these 'intrinsic qualities," he thinks, is its liability to peirods o f "excitement." Storms come and go and no body, can tell exactly why. So of the farmers'movement. It is a species of metal rough weather that has blown down a good many republicans fen­ ces but there was no real rea­ son for it and it will ultimate­ ly subside and leave things about as they were.

Remedies for some other derange­ ment are frequently taken without the least effect, because it is the liver which is the real source of the trouble, and until that is set right there can be no health, strength, or comfort in any part of the system. Mercury, in some form, is a common specific for u slug­ gish liver; but a far safer and more effective medicine is Ayer's Pills. For loss of appetite, bilious troubles, consti­ pation, indigestion, and sick headache, these Fills are unsurpassed. "For a long time I was a sufferer from stomach, liver, and kidney troubles, expe­ riencing much difficulty In digestion, with severe pains iu the lumbar region and other parts of the body. Having tried a variety of remedies, including warm baths, with only temporary relief, about three months ago I began the use of Ayer's Pills, and my health is so much improved that I gladly testify to the superior merits of this medicine." — Manoel Jorge Pereira, Porto, Portugal.

Why will peoplo pay evan­ gelists big wads of circula­ ting medium and let the old time preachers, the fellows who haveshoveled snow from the gates of heaven, while hell with its warmth was en­ tertaining evangelists at its front door, go. After the old preachers had cleared t h e way, and just before step­ ping into hell, many of these reformed ones have takenjup the Word of God and all of a sudden become very familiar w ith Him-even claiming that God had gone out into the sewers of sin to find them to act as special agents for the purpose of gathering recruits for the New Jerusalem. It sometimes takes plain words to express a vague idea but it is our opinin that where there is one good and sincere evangelist, there are five others who have gone in­ to the business purely for fi­ nancial speculation; t a k e n the livery of heaven to fill their wallets with—and that ends it. This thing of a man jump­ ing out of a gutter and im­ mediately commence preach­ ing about the goodness of God and the wickedness of other men and then passing the plate and yelling for dol­ lars instead of pennies—why, such stuff we believe is not just the proper caper.—Dur­ ham Globe. some of cinnatti gang would "be id­ actually iocy as well as suicide."

PUBLIC SAFETY Ayer's believe. She will make believe a doll is a live baby. She will make believe she is orful sweet on another girl or a feller if they cometoseehernnd when they are gone they will say, "Horrid old thing!" If yer don't do what a girl tells yer she says your hor­ rid. I'd rather be horrid than soft. If yer do what a girl tells you, she will do all sorts of foolish things. Girls can be good in school every day if they feel like it. I shud think they would get tired and have to do some­ thing /wonse in a while; I know a feller does. Girls say fellers act orful, but when a girl gets a going she acts orfler than any feller durst. They don't care for nothing. If a girl wants a feller to car­ ry her books home she ain't satisfied unless she gets the same feller some other girl wanted, whether she' likes him or not. Girls are great on having secrets; I mean telling secrets. They make a secret out of nothing atail, and tell it around to all the other girls, orful quiet, just as if it was something dredful. I beleeve a girl likes to make believe they are doing sum thing dred fill. Girls always git their jog geifry lessons better than a feller, but if they are going anywhere they don't know their way a bit, and they are sure to git lost. If a girl don't feel like doing a thing ynu can't make her, no matter whether she had orter or not. If she won't she won't and she'll git out of it somehow.

Amen! near and dear to you, may depend on the use of this well-approved remedy in prefer­ ence to any other preparation of similar name. It is compounded of Honduras sarsaparilla (the variety most ricli in curative properties), stillingia, mandrake, yellow dock, and the iodides. The process of man­ ufacture is original, skilful, scrupulously clean, and such as to secure the very best medicinal qualities of eacli ingredient. This medicine is not boiled nor heated, and is, therefore, not a decoction; but it is a com­ pound extract, obtained by a method ex­ clusively our own, of the best and most powerful alteratives, tonics, aud diuretics known to pharmacy. For the last forty years, Ayer's Sarsaparilla has been the standard blood-purifler of the world—no other approaching it in popular confidence or universal demand. Its form­ ula is approved by the leading physicians and druggists. Being pure and highly con­ centrated, it is the most economical of any possible blood medicine. Every purchaser of Sarsaparilla should insist upon having this preparation and see that each bottle bears the well-known name of J. C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Mass. In every quarter of the globe Ayer's Sar. saparilla is proved to be the best remedy for all diseases of the blood. Lowell druggists unite in testifying to the superior excellence of this medicine and to its great popularity In the city of its manufacture. Ayer's Sarsaparilla PREPARED BY DR. J. C.

A DEMOCRATIC Thursday June, 11, 1891. THE THIRD PARTY. It is not time yet to judge what effect this third party wi 1 have on the political hor­ izon. If the Alliance still con­ tend for the snb-Treasnry scheme. The occupation of railroads, telegraphies and steamship lines, by the gen­ eral Government and other demands peculiar to their ideas set forth by their lead­ ers, they will not be able to do much towards establish­ ing a successful political par­ ty, and it will prove a failure. We believe in many of the principles enunciated by the Alliance because they are democratic, just and right and are imperative, if we ever expect to have any future prosperity to the great mass of working people. The silver question, now agitating the people so much will no doubt be adjusted by the next democratic Congress and we believe that a Free coinage bill will be passed and everything will be satis­ factory with sensible alli­ ance-men in this respect. The farmers need and must have relief by legislation. High taxes must come down; ex­ travagance of the Govern­ ment, State and Nation must be reduced. No more biHion dollar Congresses should be allowed to assemble again to heap up further burdens and Reform snould be the watch word. The Southern people will not forget the Force Bill for several years and will still risk the democratic party. Foreign immigration t o this country has been larger this year than ever before. The Italians are coming in every week by the thousands and other nationalities are pouring in. They bring with them their ideas of govern­ ment antagonistical to the principles of our government. Have not the people of the United States some cause to be alarmed, and is not time that some steps should be ta ken by Congress to regulate this immigration question? We have restriction in regard to the Chinese, and whjr not put a check on the Italians and other notionalities. We think it is doubtful whether the United States are better­ ed by the over-flow of such immigrants, but think there is danger ahead. We are in accord with the alliance on this question, and think it a dangerous policy to allow so much of our territory to fall into the hands of this foreign element. As yet, the South is comparatively free from this population, but we may kok out for it soon. This is an important question to be considered. The steamer Itata, belong­ ing to the rebel party in Chil­ li, landed at Santiago, Cal., May the 4th, and in defiance of law took on board sup­ plies for thefcivil war in Chilli. The U. S. Marshal took pos­ session of her, but having no war-ship at hand she raised anchor and steamed off with the Marshal on board. The President ordered the war­ ship Charleston, at Sanfrancisco, to pursue, take or sink the ltata. On June the 4th, at Iqueque, Chilli, the ship was given up and will be ta­ ken possession of by t h e Charleston, Johnson City and Greens­ boro R. R. Company, Mon­ day morning in Boone. Pres­ ident Strattan is looking over the route, and examin­ ed Cook's Gap Monday. He informed us that the surveywould commence at Johnson City on last Tuesday. Their object now seems to be to occupy Carter and Johnson counties Tenn, Watauga and Caldwell counties N. C. and their survey will be made through these counties. The R&D R. R. Co., is threaten­ ing to build through this route also. We are greatly in hopes that some parties will accommodate us. There must be a screw loose in Minister Whitelaw Reid's diplomatic machine. Repub­ lican papers have long been telling their readers that Mr. Reid, backed by the adminis­ tration, was hard at work to secure the free admission of American pork into France, and that there was a proba­ bility that he would succeed. Now comes the news that the French government has deci­ ded, not to admit American pork free of duty, but to in­ crease largely the existingdu ty thereupon. That is the kind of diplomat Mr. Reid is.

In some of the most critical cases, when all other remedies have failed, Ayer's Pills prove effective. "In the summer of 18G4 I was sent to the Annapolis hospital, suffering with chronic diarrhea. While there, 1 became so re­ duced in strength that I could not speak and was compelled to write everything I wanted to say. I was then having some 25 or 30 stools per day. The doctors ordered a medi. cine that I was satisfied would be of no benefit to me. I did not take it, but per­ suaded my nurse to get me some of Dr. Ayer's Pills. About two o'clock in the after­ noon I took six of these pills, and by mid­ night began to feel better. In the morning the doctors came again, and after deciding that my symptoms were more favorable, gave me a different medicine, which 1 did not use, but took four more of the pills instead. The next day the doctors came to see me, and thought I was doing nicely, (and so did 1). I then took one pill a day for a week.

This action gives the lie to the statements of partisan pa­ pers that the Alliance lead­ ers are trying to wreck the democratic party in order to further their own ends. Now, had these Southern officers given the least countenance to the new movement, you Would to-day see the third party fairly launched on the political sea. As it is, final and definite action has been postponed until February, 1892, so that the democrat­ ic Congress may have a fair opportunity to show its in­ terests in the welfare of the people. "This action was right and proper. The Southern Alli­ ance men are the backbone of the democratic party, and have battled for its success in days that tried men's souls.

We are glad to see the sug­ gestion made by the New York limes that a per capita tax be imposed upon all im­ migrants. The Christian at Work has long favored this, and suggested the tax be not less than $20. The Times says: "If it were made a much costlier matter than it is to get into this country, immi­ gration would no doubt be restricted, which is certainly in itself no evil, but it would be restricted by being sifted, and this would be a very great good." And we think a restricted immigration is aboufc as great a good ,as a sifted immigration. This na­ tion is rapidly increasing, and so long as land is avail; able we shall see thousands kept out of the cities. But with our rapidly-decreasing domain open up to settle­ ments, it is clear it would be again if nine-tenths of our population could be kept back. The feelihg against foreign invasion is growing rapidly, and recent events have intensified that feeling. It will he very easy for the next Congress to give us more stringent laws, for it will have a strong unitedpub­ lic sentiment behind such an effort.—Christian at Work. To Room the Peoples' Party.

If there were many such men us Talir age in the North sectionalism would soon die cut. Read the closing of his sermon a few Sundays ago: "Among.tbe thousands of gatherings at the north and at the south for Decoration Days I am conscious that this service is unique, and that it is the only one in which there has been twisted two garlands, one for the grave of the northern dead and the other for the grave of the southern dead. O Lord God of the American Union, is it time that we bury for­ ever our old grudges? My! My! Can we not be at peace on earth when this moment in heaven dwell, in perfect love, Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee, William T. Sherman and Stonewall Jack­ son, and tens of thousands of northern and southern men who. though they once looked askance at each other from the opposite banks of the Potomac and the Chickahominy and the James and the Tennessee, now are on the same side of the river, keeping jubilee with some of those old angels who near nineteen centuries ago came down one Christmas night to chant over Bethlehem, "Glory to God in the high­ est; on earth peace, goodwill to men!" And now I hand over the two garlands, both of which are wet with many tearstears of widowhood and or­ phanage and childlessness, tears of suffering and tears of gratitude; and as the cere­ mony must be performed in symbol, there not being enough flowers to cover all the graves, take the one gar­ land to the tomb of some northern soldier who may yesterday have been omitted in the distribution of the sa­ crament of flowers, and the other garland to the tomb of some southern soldier who may a month ago have been omitted in the distribution of the sacrament of the flowers, and put both the wreaths gently down over the hearts that have ceased to beat.

Dougherty, Editor. R C. Rivers, Publisher A DEMOCRATIC family news­ paper devoted to the interests of County, State and Nation. Publish'Ml every Thursday at Boone, Wafcauga County, N.C. Thursday June, 18, 1891. Mr. E. S. Barnes, State Sec. of the Alliance says 95 per cent of the farmers that he has consulted are standing for the demands of the Alli­ ance, This is being interpret­ ed by the politicians as mea­ ning they endorse the third party. The democratic par­ ty has so far been the farm­ er's friend. In fact it was the farmers' party, they taking possession of it and, in many cases, electing their candi­ date. not by their votes alone but by the combined vote of the democratic party. What, outside of the democratic par ty do the ask ?~tbe sub-Treas ury? We are of the opinion that the majority of the thin­ king Alliancemen in the South have but little faith in this plan as a relief to the farmers. What have they in their new party? Womans' sufferage, and another little item in fa­ vor of the poor Federal sol­ diers. During the war they were paid in green-back which was under par. Now the new party is going to calculate ths difference between t li e green-back and gold and pay the old soldiers what they lost. We would ask them to think before the.v leap. It is gratifying to note the great improvement in t h e colleges of North Carolina for the last yea r. The State press has been full of the reports of commencements, and long lists of. graduates accompa­ ny every report. The Uni­ versity elects a new president and will have an endowed chair of history next year. Trinity has closed her last session at the old place and will open next year at Dur­ ham in the finest and best equipped school building in the South. W ake Forest increas­ es the salary of her profess­ ors $3,000; gave her presi­ dent a vacation in Europe, and will build an Infirmary costing $6,000. Other colleg­ es have been equally prosper­ ous, while the female colleges have made good showings. A thoughtful man is bound to admit that North Carolina is on an educational boom. Josephus Daniels editor of the State Chronicle had a re­ cent interview at Washing­ ton with Senator Peffer, of Kansas, in regard to the third party move. The Sena­ tor gave Mr. Daniels to un­ derstand that if the third party movement put the ne­ groes in control of the South­ ern States it would be no "calamity and it don't mat­ ter that such a question could not be considered by the Alli­ ance." This third p a r t y North and West will be run in the interest of men who want place and power and no doubt it. will become an agressive and bitter partisan p o 1 i t i e a 1 party. Will the South join in and help de­ stroy and break down the democratic party? We think not. When the Yankies raided Tarboro N. C, they stole and burnt property generally and the Masonic Lodge of that place was gutted .and the jewels were stolen. Since then two of them were returned, recently the third one has been received from Arizona. These jewels have passed through many hands and traveled great distances.

There was the first, gun I ever saw load­ ed with red-hot shot, which was thrown at the Yankee fleet while tearing out our breast-works. On the retreat as we went through the 26th Regiment, we found Col Van­ ce's liquor, and stopped to drink it. As we went through town we heard the Yankee cavalry was charging us and I undertook to jump a canal, which did not look to be wi­ der than a ditch, and, to be sure I did not get over, and before I could get out I had to loose my aceouterments and swim to the bank. You can imagine how I felt when I fell plump into the water. From there on to Kinston we had a rough time. This was my first experience on the battlefield, which was to be often repeated in the years that followed. " My father, at about the age of fifty, lost all the hair from the top of his head.

ANNOUNCEMENT. —o— The Firm Of Coffey & Councill, Elk Park N, C. —o— Aro wrought hy the use of Ayer's Hair Vigor in restoring gray hair to its original color, promoting a new growth, prevent­ ing the hair from falling, keeping it soft, silky, and abundant, and the scalp cool, healthy, and free from dandruff or humors. The universal testimony is that this prep­ aration lias no equal as a dressing, and Is, therefore, indispensable to every wellfurnished toilet. "I have used Ayer's Hair Vigor for some time and it has worked wonders for me. I was troubled witli dandruff and was rapidly becoming bald; but since using the Vigor my head is perfectly clear of dandruff, the hair has ceased coming out, and I now have a good growth, of the same color as when I was a young woman. I can heartily recom­ mend any one suffering from dandruff or loss of hair to use Ayer's Hair Vigor as a dressing." — Mrs. J.ydia O. Moody, East Pittston, Me. "Some time ago my wife's hair began to come out quite freely. Ayer's Hair Vigor not only prevented my wife from becoming bald, but it also caused an entirely new growtli of hair. I am ready to certify to tills statement before a justice of the peace."— II. Hulsebtts, I.ewlshurgli, Iowa. "Some years ago, after a severe attack ot brain fever, iny hair all came out. I used such preparations for restoring it as my phy­ sicians ordered, hut failed to produce a growtli of hair. I then tried, successively, several articles recommended by druggists, and all alike fell short of accomplishing the desired result. The last remedy I applied was Ayer's Hair Vigor, which brought a growth of hair in a few weeks. I think I used eight botties in two years; more than was necessary as a restorative, hut I liked it as a dressing, and have continued to use it for that purpose. I believe Ayer's nair Vigor possesses virtues far above those of any similar preparation now on the market." —Vincent .lones, Richmond, Ind. Ayer's Hair Vigor rRKfARKD BY OR. J. C.

A reporter was present and gathered the following information from the speech: "There are more than twen ty-two hundred sub-alliances with a membership of one h u nd red t h ousa n < 1, a nd every county in the State is organ­ ized. Class legislation was the first cause of the condi­ tion of the laboring classes. This policy of the govern­ ment to protect special class esof ifs citizens has caused the agricultural classes to now own only 24 per cent of the 84 billions of dollars the wealth of the United States, when in 1820 they owned 06% per cent of the 8 billions the wealth then of the peo­ ple, There are nine millions of mortgages, one for every family of seven." The tariff seemed to be the unjust legis­ lation he was striking at, and proposed to remedy it by having a tariff commis­ sion to gather data from the factories in England and the United States. If the manu­ facturers of the U. S. would pay 50 per cent more to their laborers, then the govern­ ment should levy a tariff of the same amount on the ar­ ticle manufactured. To run the government an advalorum tax and a tax on income was the policy. The labor­ ers pay 80 per cent of tax, and own only 2-5 of wealth, while the U, S. bonds, treasu­ ry notes and income of the rich are Untaxed." "The second cause was the contraction of the currency by the government issuing bonds and stopping coinage of, and demonetizing silver. It takes now four times as much cotton, 2% times as much corn, 2% times as much com, 2 times as much pork to buy a dollar as it did in 1860. Then there were only two millionaire in the United States, now there are 11,000, 45 of whom aie II. S. Senators, who, with Vice President Morton, can con­ trol the Senate. The objections to the order was then touched upotl. 1. As to the fighting of the merchants, was utterly im­ possible, oil the account of their close relationship. 2. S e c r e t organizations, which is the only way to reach all classes. 8. Admits females. This objection was beautifully an swered by a just tribute to women. 4. Dues. The dtles are only 50 cents to join, 25 cts per quarter, afterwards the chea­ pest f ra tern a 1 orga n i zat ion in the world. The remainder of the time was taken up by the discus­ sion of the demands of the order of which our readers are perfectly familliar. In the close he urged the alliances to purge themselves of bad men and to stand Together and win, "Be true to your­ selves, be true to your countrp, and betruetoyourGod." Gen. Ransom, at the Sol­ diers' Reunion at Wilson, told the standing of the South in the war. The follow­ ing taken from a report of the speech in the Wilming­ ton Messenger will bear print ing again: "Gen. Ransom urged as the duty of the Southern pen pie now the duty of truth— the truth of history. He be­ lieved history would vindi­ cate the South, and that fu­ ture generations could road impartial history and award to the South all thatb Jongs to her in the struggle with the North. Gen. Ransom then stated that he desired to state a few simple words to vindicate the South's carnage, and he contrasted the armies of the sections. Quoting from Spofford's statistical almanac, he said that the North had 2,<859,122 men in the field while the best estimate gave the South 600,000, and the most zealous writes of the North put it up to 700,000. The population of the States at war with the .S o u t h at that time was 22,000,000, While the South at the same time was 8,710,000. Besides this 8,710,000 of the inhabi­ tants of the South were col­ ored and we did not take a soldier from this number. On the other hand the North put muskets in their hand, and besides $3,800,000 peo­ ple in the border Statesrided vv i t h t h e wo r k, g i v \ n g t h em a total population of 26,000,000. Besides this the North received from the e n t i r e world, and had all the rea­ sons for carrying on the war, while the South had no treas uty, no founderies, no facto­ ries, no arsenals, and yet it took the North four years to pift an end to the war. And then Gen. Grant had even declared to President Lin­ coln he could never conquer the South so long as t h e armies exchanged men, and one year before the war clos­ ed there was no exchange. The North had 45,800 more soldiers than the South, and there were, 186,000 colored coldiers enlisted, and yet with one-half of the raenjthat the Federal army contained, the South won four-fifths of the actions, until the States were finally overrun by the millions of men, a g a i n s t whom there was no army to stern the time. Gen. Ransom touched on many interesting points, but time will not permit us to mention them in this hur­ riedly prepared article. He concludes by spenknig of the part North Carolina took in the war, stating that of the 600,000 men furnished to the Southern armies, North Carolina furnished 125,000 or about one-fifth, while she lost more in killed than any other State. He alluded to the distinguished sons North Carolina furnished to the war and made several allu­ sions to those present, re­ minding Oapt. W. R. Kenan of his gallantry in battle and paying a high compliment to the valor of North Carolina troops; A few days ago there was a heavy rain Up the country toward Jonesboro, and the creek rupning through towri overflowed its bank s. Iri places it flowed over low­ lands, forming an angry tor­ rent of ugly yellow water; freighted with driftWood; parts of fences, gates, pieces of timber arid even trunks of well grown trees. The torrent rushed through the t o w n bearing upon its rrigged bo­ som many springs of half ripened wheat, stalks of gass, drowning daisies and rose leaves. The waters spread over one of the meadows above town and it was natur­ al to suppose, moving like a torrent as it did, that vege­ tation would be ruined en­ tirely and nothing left of what there had been a few minutes before, so bright and green in the soft summer. A few hours afterward t walked across the meadows. The sun was shiningbrigntly then and beyond the wake of the angry flood, drops of wa­ ter sparkled on the grass, and the birds sang their glad some songs. A s h o w e r in summer is to languishing na­ ture as a bottle of old Bor­ deaux to a weary soldier: Where the Waters had been there was desolation. I imag­ ined it to be a lpiriaturecdpy of the Mississippi valley, af­ ter the Father of Waters haS gotten over one of his annual sprees. Here was a group of reeds bent and bending un­ der a load of slime and trash, and tufts of grass lying fiat on the ground all covered with yellow sediment. Therri was driftwood, bunches of hay, an.d branches of trees spread over the surface. In the midst of it all [noti­ ced a pink flower waving its head above the drift, the slime and beaten grasses. On close inspection I found it to de a rose, a wild rose, a blooming sweetbrier with its delicate odor of the wood­ land. To my surprise, the rose was without blemish. Its petals were as fresh and perfect as if there had never been a flood. The leaves were of the most delicate pink: Not a particle of dirt adher­ ed to any part of the sweet little waif. There Jwas only one on the bush erect abovri the earthy slums stretching away in all directions, pure as the sun light. Purity is always found ill the midst of filth and crime. 0. W.

Dougherty, Editor. R C. Rivers, Publisher The Alliance as an Educator As? an educator, the Alliance fs the pier of all. Men who never read before, are read­ ing 1 . Men who never thought before, are thinking. Men who never acted before, are act­ ing. Men who never spoke before are speaking. And, to sum it all up as a whole, the people are coming out of their shell of ignorance and are putting on the garb of a liberal education. There was never such a demand for in­ formation upon questions of national importance. Every farmer almost is seeking to be his own leader and his own educator. The Alliance has done what all other reform movements heretofore and even the preachers have fail­ ed to do. It has brought the masses together upon a com­ mon level and united them. It has forever ceased the wa­ ving of the bloody shirt and the various references to the carpet-baggers. It has al­ most made the people one in their demands. It has dis­ persed all partisan strife among the masses, according to every man the right to cast his vote as he chooses, and by so doing not making enemies of his opponents. It has introduced the plan of being a politician 364 days in the year and a partisan one day. What could do more? Who could ask more? —Southern Agricultrist. Stick to Your Business. A man in Ban Antonio un­ dertook to build a house a few days ago without the cost of an aichitect. The floor loaded down with brick and mortar fell from the sec­ ond story on nine men that were working below. Such is life. Men who un­ dertake something that they know nothing about gener­ ally make a failure. They may start off briskly, appearto be going up all right, but the superstructure is not well founded a n d their w o r k comes tumbling down, and as in this case to the injury of t h ose bel ow.

This would-be architect was a tin­ ner and could no doubt put the roof on his house in a substantial manner, but he would go out of his line and without having the experi­ ence of the architect tried to Usurp his business, but what a failure. He has not only lost money in the foolish ef­ fort, but entailed upon sev­ eral families the irreparable loss of its provider. If you expect io follow any business and make a success of it, it is better to start at the bottom and learn it thoroughly. He content with little things and work up at first, and by the time you have worked up to the state of proficiency that renders you capable of becoming your own architect whether it is or a house, for­ tune or character, you will know too much to overload your scaffold or your second floor, and to start your buil­ ding except upon a firm foun­ dation.- -Greenville Herald. Sometime ago, a local op­ tion election was held in Wadesboro, and the town went wet. They have a dry board of commssioners there, and when the board met last week it over-rode the voice of the people as ex­ pressed at the popular elec­ tion, ignored the election and refused to grant license. Bo, though W adesboro voted wet, it is still a dry town.— Charlotte News. The contractors on the new mammoth light house off of Hatteras have about cotnple ted the foundation, which goes down seventy feet. Its erection is probably the great est engineering feat in light­ house construction the world has ever known. In laying the foundation, which was the most difficult part of the undertaking, the bui 1 d e r s have been very fortunate in having little heavy weather. The light stands out at sea nine miles and will cost near a half a million dollars to complete it. News reached the city that the storm Wednesday night overturned tlm great caison inside of which the work was being carried on and swept away all the pumping ma­ chinery. The loss is thought to be about |75,000 and will necessitate the construction of another before f u r t h e r work can be done.-Newberne Journal. With Mini Ii.n )iiresl Maj. W. W. Hampton, a prominent and well-to-do cit­ izen, who resided in Wilkes, above Elkin, was noticed to be impaired in mind for sev­ eral weeks and a few days ago was taken to his brothers, Columbus Hampton, in Sur­ ry county. The latter was having a well dug in the,yard and the workmen arose shor­ tly after daylight and while standing out in the yard heard a noise in the well. Up­ on going there they found a. man's shoes and hat on the platform and o n looking down they witnessed MajorHampton struggling in the water. They drew him upas quickly as posible, but when he reached the platform of the well he was dead. The deceased was about 60 years old and was a rela­ tive of Gen. Wade Hampton, of South Carolina.

Chauncy Depew's trial and acquittal by a New York ju­ ry for having as a railroad director caused the death of several railroad employees by failing to have the cars properly equipped for safety seems to have given him a boom for the Republican gu­ bernatorial nomination in that State.

VVereadin the Bible tha^ the Lord sent a plague of lo­ custs on Pharaoh. The ac* count says, that they were blown in by an east wind and covered the whole earth? so that the land was darkened and that they eat every herb and the fruit of the trees. Travelers say that the Ho= ly Laud is yet the scene of destruction wrought by this pest in latter times. Air. Thompson, who has travel­ ed extensively in the Holy Land, in his book "The Land and the Book", gives a very vivid account of swarms of locust which are yet seen in that country. They move in a straight for­ ward direction allowing nothing to hinder them. W hen they come to a house they climb straight over it. The destruction done by these locusts to vegetation is immense — often destroy­ ing whole fields of grain. The natives have had a great deal of trouble fight­ ing them, but *as yet have made no progress. We have just read an arti­ cle in the Scientific Ameri­ can on the locust. A picD ui e is given which is almost a perfect representation of our large grasshopper. The article says: "The locust, as is generally known, is of the family of the grasshopper and cricket, but differs from them in having shorter horns and feelers and a more robust body and limbs." The manner of fignting them in Algiers and Tunis is the same as that used in the Holy Land. The American says:—"The manner of fight­ ing the locusts as adopted in Algiers and Tunis has been to construct a ditch with a fence at one side, across the line of march of the insects, which come in such numbers that the ditch quickly becomes filled up, when the natives jump in and trample them to death at the same time thrashing the living mass with a heavystick or log of wood. The fence at the side of the trench consists of long bands of cotton cloth or calico sup­ ported on sticks, such fences extending in some places across a mile or moreof coun­ try, the material at the top having a slippery waxed bor­ der about four inches wide, kept moist by daily oiling* The insects cannot keep their hold on this waxed border, and inevitably drop back in­ to the trench beneath, which is from three to four feet deep. When the insects ha ve at tained an age where all or a portion of them have wings, they are fought by a line of natives with long palm switches, a method of stopping their progress which, to he effectual, pre­ supposes the simultaneous exertion of great numbers of Arab palm wielders. The metal in a five (Lit nickle piece is worth about half a cent, and fifteen cents will purchase copper enough to make $2 worth of cents.

R C. Rirers, Publisher Thursday Au». 20, 180.7. The State Alliance has had a big" meeting at Morehead City, Col. Polk and oth­ er's made speeches. The ses­ sion was a harmonious one and every thing passed off lovely, and thefollowing offi­ cers were elected for the fiscal year: President, Hon. Mari­ on Butler; Vice President, Hon. T. B. Long; Secretary and Tieasury, W. 8. Barnes; Business Agent, Mr. Worth; Elias Carr, 8. B. Alexander and Mr. Lindsey, were elect­ ed delegates to the National Alliance, at Indianapolis, In­ diana. The sub-Treasury scheme was endorsed by theAl'iance. We see very little said about the third party movement, but there a r e indications that it will materialize on conditions that the next Con gress does not pass the Free Coinage Bill. Borne of the leaders will urge the Alliance to organize the third party, especiallv those who want office badly. But we believe better counsel will prevail and there will be no third party in North Carolina and perhaps none in the 8outhern States. Political indications now point to Blaine as the repub­ lican nominee for President in 1892. Harrison is losing ground with the 'bosses'. If we are compelled to have another radical President, let it be Blaine, as he has more sense than all the Harrisons combined. It is not, howev­ er the policy of the American people to again elect a radi­ cal President, for the coun­ try is getting worse all the time under radical rule. The people will never endorse a party that will run the expences of the government up to the vast sum of one bill­ ion, eight million dollars. No country, however wealthy, can endure such a strain and live andfprosper. Financial­ ly our government is in a bad condition and every year it is growing worse by the reekless appropriations of this radical administration. Al­ ready a tax on incomes is de­ manded to meet theexpenses so great have they gj*own un der radical legislation. Can the voters of the U. S. afford to elect such a hoard of blood suckers? Gov. Tillman, of 8outh Car­ olina, the alliance Governor, made a speech on the 1.4th, at the Bed 8prings Fair in North ^Carolina. He sailed into the third party and de­ nounced it in unmeasured terms. H e counselled t h e people to stand up for the old Jeffersonian Democratic party. He made a grand speech and was applauded to the echo. Maj. W. M. Bobbins made a rousing speech to the peo­ ple of Alexander county, at the Court House last week. He held up the old constitu­ tional Democratic party as the only safe-guard for the people. Maj. Bobbins was lis­ tened to by a large and at ton tive crowd of people. Fred Douglas now knows how deep the love which this administration professes for the negro is. He was sent as Minister to Havti to get rid of him, and he has been kick­ ed out of office for precisely the same reason. sophisty shall have vanished GLOBE ACADEMY, There appears to be a sub-! —o— and the reason of man like stantial boom among nlli- Editoi Democrat: ancmen and Democrats for The ir ind of man is never the ra vs of the noon-day sun THOS.

If any evidence was wanting of this, the articles in your is­ sues of April the 9th, signed 'E', and Aug. 20th signed "Blue Back" furnish it in bun da nee. What?

The writer of that hidroheaded article in your issue of Aug. the 20th may sneer at, may malign misrepresent and falsify an article he can­ not answer, but he shall not steal otlr naihe With impuni­ ty. The name "BlUe Back" assigned to our last article, was not by our design or in­ tention, but we accepted the name, and doftotintend that any one shall spew forth his venom, slime and filth ovei that signature without re­ buke. We have not the cop­ ies of the DEMOCRAT at hand in which the articles on the Compulsory law were print­ ed, (although we are a sub­ scriber,) the papers having been mislaid. But that does not matter, for we not here pretend to discuss that sub­ ject. All the excuse we offer for this is the old Proverb: "Answer a fool according to his folly." We confess our inability to see how such articles can edi­ fy or interest the public, but the editor is responsible, hav ing published one side we are justified in demanding the saraf for the other. That the false Blue Back laments over the great space of time elaps­ ing between the communica­ tions; if he will get his wits together and do his part, we promise it "hebdoniinal" af­ ter this. Hope he will pardon Us for using some of his big thunder, as we use it more to the purpose thaii he did.
