"Tn tbeCincinnattiConven­ tion the Southern Allinnee men did all and everything in their power to prevent or postpone the organization of a new political party. 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.

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.

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.

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. What a queei lot these Republicans are an­ yway. It would, of course, have been foolish in these days of puichasable men to have expected that Depew and his millionaire associ­ ates would be convicted; be­ cause lie escaped going to prison furnishes no good rea­ son why he should be honor­ ed by being nominated for the governorship of a great 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? With the ignorance shown forth in 'E's' article, the gross misapplication of words! yet claiming the most extensive experience in teach­ ing; together With the lamen­ table want of good breeding displayed in the article of Aug. 20th) in using the col­ umns of a public news paper under the guise of discussing matters of public interest, to vent his spleen for personal enmity; need we any farther evidence of the urgent need of a force Bill. 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.

We have been purged with this homogeneous compound un­ til the bare mention of it makes us feel like vomiting." Now it was a matter of choice with Col.. Folk's pa­ per whether or not it would send such views out into th° world for the farmers of the State to read , and it chose to do so. Why? What is the ob ject aimed at? What was ex­ pected to be gained by the publication? What is therea son for it. The Democratic lealers of North Carolina never promis ed to repeal the internal rev­ enue; they have urged that it ought to be [[repealed; but they have never made a prom ise to do what they never could of themselves perform. They did promise the peo­ ple good local government, and peace at home and the establishment of order in the State. When they were giv­ en power, what was the con­ dition of affairs? Half a doz­ en counties had been declared to be in a state of insurrec­ tion; hundreds of good men were in prison; Kirk's ma­ rauders were holding in sub­ jection several counties, a court martial was being or­ ganized to try people under martial law; and the negroes were burning barns, and the people were in a condition of unrest and inquietude. Such were the circumstances under which the people gave power to the Democrats; and since that time no people on the face of the globe have enjoy­ ed greater peace and moreun broken order, greater liberty and more confidence in the law; or more progress adapt­ ed to the situation of our people than have the citizens of North Carolina. The Democrats of North Carolina can turn with just pride to the history and acts of their party, which indeed challenge the admiration of the people. With such a record, the Democrats of North Carolina can treat with scorn the sin­ ister views Col. Polk's paper has chosen to lay before the public, and can defy the ma­ lignant efforts of that paper to array the people against it. And what shall we say of that last idea—that since the war the life of the Democratic party has depended on Radi­ calism and the negro, and chat the bare mention of these matters "makes us feel like vomiting? What was the case in 1874 when the social equality bill was before Congress and was defeated by only the most strenuous endeavors of the Democrat members? And then when theforcebill was defeated after a mostgallant fight last Congress, and radicalism and negroism were once more disappointed, did that, too, "make us feel like vomiting?" These are questions which the people will be apt to ask of the pro­ gressive Farmer.—News and Observer. OCTOBER, 8, LSI NO. 9. Week's Progress. through 'them would make or break as they did.

Of these fifteen only four. Messrs. Crisp, Mills, Springer and Hatch—are candidates for the Speakership, so that the other eleven doubtless expect to return to their old places.

"I know now" said a lady not long ago, "that my mother loved me tenderly; but during my childhood, 1 doubted it. If I were really dear to her, I queried, why did she never tell me so ? Why did she never caress me and assure me of her love? She thought her actions spoke loiuDyenough without words, and so they did hut I could n o t co m preh en d 11le 1a n gu a ge they spoke. I could not un­ derstand them as 1 do now, and how I longed to hear her call me loving names, and to have her lap me in the sweet embrace of a mother's love." Many a little heart aches as did this lady^s for the spontaneous utterances of maternal affection, Thesecan make it happier than gifts of beads, or dolls, or fine cloth­ es, or costly toys. As houseplants cannot flourish with­ out sunshine, so child ran can­ not thrive and be happy with out love. Children who grow up in this constant atmosphere of love are rarely mischievous, never vicious. The mightiest of all agencies to lead the young in path of virtue is in the hands of parents, and to command this agency they need but give expression to the natural overflow of their hearts. Children, to be hap­ py, need encouragement and praise. Let us give to these darlings of our hearts the sunniest, warmest spot in the household, and we shall see them grow up in symetry, to be fair women and brave men.—[N. Y. Advocate.

H a IBs reasons for the step he has taken: 1. Because it is advoca­ ting the adoption of meas­ ures violating fundamental principles which I have al­ ways and do yet believe to be just and right. 2. Because in its advoca­ cy of these measures it has beeo me i n tolera nt, denomin a ting those of its members who cannot endorse them as Judases traitors. 3. Because its members are expected to think for them­ selves only when in line with the plans mapped out by a select few. 4. Because while declaring itself to be "the Democratic party," ir has nothing but abuse and calumny for that party and its leaders, there­ by indicating its insincerity as well as unfriendliness to the Democracy 5. Because by persistently vilifying and belittling the Democratic party and insid­ iously holding it responsible for Republican misdeeds, it has developed its intention to destroy it by gradually undermining it in the affec­ tions and confidence of the peopleG. Because its present at­ titude is antagonistic to De­ mocracy and its principles, with the strongest indica­ tions of a fixed purpose to land in the 'third party' in time for the Federal elections next year. 7. Because the most im­ portant of its original prin­ ciples are violated and its purposes and aims so com­ pletely subverted that while declaring itself non-political it has degenerated into a mere political machine not yet attaining to the dignity of a party. These are the reasons which actuate me, honestly enter­ tained and honestly express­ ed; and I will not go contra­ ry to my convictions of what is right and just, though it bring down the maledictions of the whole brotherhood upon my defenseless head. H. H. Hall. Tar and Feathers in 1189. In England the penalty of tar and feathers was intro­ duced in 1189, when Richard I, before setting out for the Holy Land, ordained, in or­ der to preserve the discipline of his fleet, that whosoever should be convicted of theft should first have his head shaved; that boiling pitch should then be poured upon it, and a cushion of feathers (de la plume d'oreiller) shak­ en over it. He was afterward to be put onshore at the first place the ship touched at; though, after a babtism of boiling pitcli,the poor wretch, I fancy, would have little life in hi in. In modern times the practice has found favor with the populace as a means of readily executing justice on an offender whom the law, perhaps, shows no anxiety to reach— Gentleman's Maga­ zine. 22, 1891. Free Coinage of Silver-—The Issue is Still the Tariff From a Speech by Hoii. Roger Q. Mills in the.Ohio CanipEign- In one Congress a Demfl­ oat ie House passed a free coinage bill, and in another Congress a Republican Senate passed it. To-day in many states the Republican par­ ty is strongly demanding it, and in many others the dem­ ocrats are doing the same thing. But whatever m a .v be the views of trends or foes as to its propriety, it must be apparent to every one who has carefully examined the subject that opening the min­ ts to the free coinage of sil­ ver will not dispel the cloud that is darkening the land. Let us not be deceived by superficiei a 1 a ppearances. It i s not the scarcity of money in the country. It is the scar­ city of money in the pockets of the people whoearnit that produces the distress. If our circulation were to-day doub­ le what it is, and it was all in the pockets of a h u n d r e d thousand people, our condidition would not only not be bettered, but it would be de­ cidedly worse than it is. It is not the small circulation, it is the small distribution that plagues us. The amount of circulation per head is shown by taking the whole amount of money in the country and dividing it by the whole number of people. That shows that each person has in his pocket $23.96, but millions have none; other mil 1 ions have not "half of it. A few hundred thou­ sand in fact have a lion's sha re. The absu rd i ty of deter­ mining the prosperity of the country by such figuring is too patent to deceive any one. The amount of money re­ quired to do the business of a people does not depend up­ on the number of their heads but the amount of their busi­ ness, and the facilities they have for conducting it. Where there are no banks or clear­ ing houses, and credit is lim­ ited, money instead of the check must go from hand to hand as commodities cluing# owners. The highest prosper­ ity this county has ever known was from 1850 to 1861. The national wealth in­ creased 12G per cent, in ten years. Farms more than dou­ bled in their vain#, and every branch of industry was in the highest prosperity, and yet at no time during that peri­ od did the percapita circula­ tion exceed $18.33, and that was $5 per head less than it is to-day; for the whole de­ cade the average circulation was under $16 per head, or $8 less than (.air present pelcapita circulation. Between 1870 and 1880 it was over $22 per head, and that was the darkest period financially ever experienced in our histo­ ry, and now with nearly $24 per head we would gladly ex­ change our present condition for that of 1850, when we had less than $12 per head. What, then, is the scourge that is tormenting the land and driving contentment out of so many homes? It is ex­ cessive taxation, indirect, concealed, hypocritical, ex­ NO. 11. haustive and blighting taxa­ tion. It is that taxation that comes over the wall like d thief in the night, that muf­ fles its feet and gloves its hand with softest kid, that conceals its features with the smack of patriotism; that tells you that it is making you rich, when it is robbing the mouth of labor of the bread it has earned; that taxation that like a vampire fans your cheeks with cool­ ing airs and soothes you to sleep, and whileyou are slum­ bering buries its beak in your veins a n d draws your life away; that taxation that by jugglery decreases the prices of what vou have to sell and increases the prices of what you have to buy; that taxa­ tion which passes by accumu­ lated wealth, and lays all its remorseless exactions Upon articles which men, women and children are compelled to buy in order to live; that taxation that concentrates and increases the power of wealth, reduces the wages of labor, shuts the laborer out o f employment, paralyzes production, restricts con­ sumption and plunges the country into the depths of distress-^this is the cause of all our troubles, and to this we should direct all our thoughts and use all the power with which we are in# vested to remove iL THEIR OLD WAY. Pi jgressive Farmer. The News and Observer did not comply with the request of Col. Polk last week, to pub lish his statement in reply to charges made by that paper, and we were informed on th# next day that the editor said it was impossible to make room for it. This inforrna-* tion was obtained through st reliable gentleman, and we could readily see at a. casual glance at the columns of that paper that morning why it was that they could not make room for Col. Polk's state­ ment. They had only a lit­ tle over two columns of their space in that morning's issue devoted t o misrepresenta­ tions and vilifications of Col. Polk. We saw at once that there was no room for a truthful statement from Col. Poik, of course. That paper however, did publish it on Wednesday morning, and its readers will remember the prejudice and unmanly criti­ cisms made by that paper. The News and Observer says that CM. Polk "wall have to answer before another court martial but of a different character," and we desire to inform that paper that Col. Polk is not the only one who stands before the bar of pub­ lic opinion, as the News and Observer will soon find out. It was sincerely hoped by many leading Democrats of this city that the News and Obsever would so far change its course as to show at least a spirit of fairness and man­ liness now that it has been utterly overwhelmed in all its bitter and futile attempts to liesmiich the character of one of our leading citizens; but we again say to that paper that the friends of truth and justice and honoreannotand will not endorse and sustain a course of conduct so utter­ ly at variance with every con ception of true manhood. We pledge our readers that hereafter we will devote less space to these small matters. —Pi ogressi ve larmei, �SUBSCRIPTION HATE S £*3^If you wish to save money in buying boots, shoes, ieadyTO THE WATAUGA DEMOCRAT. made clothing, or, in tact, any­ 1 copy1 year $1.00 thing else, give me your trade. 1 " G months 50 W.

In a place where Tie went a lot of people were acting the fool, and one of them said: "I a n worth a million of dollars in my mind. If I lose my mind I am busted." The people who are always expecting \o die, usually live the longest.

When a man becomes iadherent to what others think of him, he is in a fair way to lose all self respect, and that lost, he is an unsafe man.

Pub­ lished every Thursday at Boone, Watauga County, N.'C. Thursday, Oct. 15, 1801. Our Courts. We think that our judges are over-worked, and are too hard pressed to get from one court to the other, in time to open court on Mondays, es­ pecially in our mountain countries. We witnessed this trouble after the last Lenoir court. There is one week's court at Lenoir which is apt to continue until Saturday evening of the week, then the judge and solicitor have about GO miles to travel to get to Jefferson by Monday morning to open court promptly. Now think how difficult it is to make this trip over the Blue Ridge and other rough mountains and bad roads. It is impossible to do so without traveling in the night, and all da} 7 on Sunday. Then from Boone to Bakersville we have the same condition. If our court holds until Saturday evening the judge and solici­ tor cannot get to Bakersville i n ti me Monday to open co urt Would it not be better for the courts at Jefferson and Bakersville to open on Tues­ days instead of Mondays. There are two weeks term at both places and Mondays could better be dispensed with than where there is but one week term. This will save cost to the counties and give better time for the judge and solicitor to be on hand promp t!y Tuesdays. We believed that this change ought to be made, unless it is, it will work badly, and cause the Ashe and Mitchell counties to pay the cost of witnesses and jurors when it is impossible for the judge to reach the places on Mondays. The alliance people in some of the Western States, are vigorously urging the third party, and will change the aspect of the political affairs into different conditions. It is evident, we think, if the third party runs, and signal­ ly fails, it will collapse as a political party, and go down as did the Granger and Green back parties. We d o n o t want the Alliance to fail, for we believe it has already done good and will continue to so do if they are lead by true men and not go off with such adventurers as Simpon, Peffer and others of like charac­ ter. We trust that our peo­ ple of the South will stand firm, as heretofore, and all v ill be right. The campaign in Ohio is waxing hot. Gov. Cambell is making able speeches and has large and enthusiastic crowds. He is making his campaign strictly on the tar­ iff issue, and from the best information we can obtain, the re-election of Gov.

In the early fifties a party of emigrants on their way to the gold fields of California by the southern route, via the Gila river, crossed the Colorado by the ferry left by Graham in 1848 "and struck out on the desert for the land of promise. 'J'he trail was well defined b y abandoned wagons and the bones of horses, mules and human be­ ings. Struggling through the yielding sand, the thermom­ eter at 120 degrees," wheels falling apart, animals dying from heat and thirst, they on the second night out halt­ ed some ten miles f r o m 'Cooke's Well,' with th« wa­ ter in their kegs exhausted. Tradition states that a little ten-year old girl was heard praying, in one of the wag­ ons, for water. It states that in her child-like faith she said: "O good Heavenly Father, I know that I havr been a very naughty, naughty girl, but, oh! dear, 1 am so very thirs­ ty, and mamma, papa and the bab.v all want to drink so much. Do, good God, give us water, and I will never, never be naughty again." The gaunt, half starved, desperate men gathered around the wagon, discussing how and what movement to make to save their lives and their dear ones, with no thought of gold now, and lis­ tened to the humble petition. One voiced the rest and said: 'May God grant it!' Soon the voice of the little child, in cheerful accent, sounded in the silent night. "0 mother. mother, get me water; oh, I hear it running; oh, do get some for baby and me." They thought her delirious from her sufferings, when suddenly a babel of sounds broke forth from the oxen and mules, all frantic and endeavoring to break loose from the wagon Xjoles. A rustling noise call­ ed their attention to a slight depression near the wagons, and on investigating the cause they found water gush­ ing up out of the sand, sweet, clear, but warm. Their suf­ ferings were over, and they reached the mines better and wiser for this interposition, as they firmly believed, of Di­ vine Providence. This spring continued to flow running due north for twenty miles, then was lost in the sand' In places itwa s over two miles wide and from four to twenty feet deep. When immigration in 1851 moved by the isthmus and the northern route, the mi­ raculous water disappeared, as its mission was aecomplised and its divine work done.

Electricity Does It; Probably the most remarkable invention of the age is the pro­ duct of the brain of a Chester county poultry raiser, says the Philadelphia Record. The ma­ chine is nothing more than aeon trivance to catch, kill, and pick chickens. It works like a charm, and, singular as it may seem, is not at all complicated. The ma. chine is concealed in an old bas­ ket, for the average barn yard fowl is away above the average bird in point of suspicion and in­ telligence. The farmer's wife or the farmer himself, as the case maybe,sann. ters out in the barnyard and calls softly, Chick, chick, chick, chook, chook, chook." After peeping slyly from behind the barn and seeing nothing more dangerous than a basket of corn, the doom­ ed birds flock to their fate. A few grains of corn are thrown out and the chickens eagerly pick them up. One of the grains, how­ ever, is a death dealer. It is made of iron and painted to re­ sembles a grain of corn. When the chicken swallows it. the ma­ chine is started, and in less than ten seconds the foolish bird is ready for the market. The wire is reeled rapidly, and the surprised bird is dragged to­ ward the machine. Just as it reaches the edge a needle is thrust out, the.bird's jugular is pierced, and death ensues. The chicken's body is drawn in­ to the machine and is suspended in a contrivance very much as a ship would be propped up in a shipyard. Then a dozen little nippers, all working together and with lightning-like speed begin to tear feathers out in clouds. The nippers seein to have al­ most human intelligence, for they go around that chicken like a cooper around a barrel, and in ten seconds thgpoor bird is ready for market and another victim is being plucked. Divorced All Around* The true story is told of a one-time Lewiston man who several years ago was divor­ ced in the West. He came East and married a woman who had also been divorced. They traveled South a few years later, and there as they sat on a. hotel veranda, the Lewiston man bowed coldly to a lady who passed them hanging on the a rm of a gen­ tleman. Curiously enough, his wife also bowed to the couple. She said, "To whom did you bow?" "To the lady", said the Lewiston man with a sort of flushed look on his face. 'She was once my wife. To whom did you bow? Did you know her?" "No", said she, "I bowed to the gentleman. I had the misfortune to once know him intimately. He was my hus­ band."

Shakespeare measured their true worth. He saterized and denounced them again and again. He said that taxa­ tion even reached the woods— "We take from every tree, top, bark, and part of the timber, and Though we leave it with a root, thus hacked, the air will drink the sap." He says of taxes, that "all their curses now live where their prayers did," and "all are in uproar, and danger serves among them." But the complaints o r the centuries were wrong and illfounded, and showed ingrati­ tude. The true way t o na­ tional prosperity and bless­ ing, as we have seen, is by the smooth,lawn-like, fiowers+rown way of taxation. Make the taxes high enough and everything prospers at. once. This is t ' e Harrison curative for all political ills' Pile up the taxes and you make the people happy. If you would let the great American Republic outstrip all rivals and become a land of milk and honey, with gold­ en rivers running everywhere and a bucolic people happy beyond the race, all you have t o do is to strengthen the bonds of taxation and levy contributions upon the poor­ er classes for the special ben­ efit of nabobs and Million­ aires. This is the sum of the wisdom of the Harrison-Reed McKinley gang who are the agents and exponents of the half million rich men of their party. The higher the taxes the happier the people. What a commentary upon common se n se!—Wilmington Messen­ ger. Inevitable With an If. Chairman Clarkson. of the National Republican Com­ mit tee says the renomina­ tion of Harrison is inevitable and that tLi^ will he accepted a s a fact by all within the next sixty days. Clarkson ad mits that Harrison is not his choice, but he, in common with other Republicans, must take his medicine. This, coin­ ing from the head of the Re­ publican machine, seems to i>e authoritative, but there's many a slip 'twixt the cup and the lip. especially when Blaine is within reachin g dis­ tance of the cup.—Kansas City fStar.

"Where did you get those lovely grapes?," said a weak, thin voice within. " I don't know," said sixyear-old Willie. "Jim Hook told me he knew where there were such nice grapes that we could easily get, so he and I agreed to go and get some. After we had gotten them, he said we had better not let anyone see them. I don't know why, but I suppose he thought they might take them from us," said injiocent Willie. The sick woman was on the point of scolding Willie and telling him he must take them back, when a heavy knock was heard a t the door. Willie answered the knock, and before him stood an angrv-looking farmer. "Good morning," was the surly salute. Willie looked innocently in­ to his face and said, "Good morning, sir." "Where is your mother?" . 4 4 In the next room. Step in, sir," said polite Willie. "Good morning, Mrs. War­ ner, I just come ter tell ye t h a t I am goin' ter have yer boy 'jerked; I'll l'arn him ter steal my grapes, the young THURSDAY, DECEMBER. ter! my lost Ethel!'

At the Thanksgivingdinner the reunited family looked happy, but as they looked around the table, they saw an emty chair it was the mothers; "S0MEB0DI ELSE MIGHT." A lady was quietly walking along a city street not longago when a door flew open and a boy shot out with a whoop like a wild Iniian. Once on the pavement, he danced a double shuffle all around the curb-stone, and then' reached the street in great haste,for it wasevident from the books under his arm t h a t he was going to school. She was thinking what noisythoughtless {'features heal­ thy boys are, when just a few yards before her she sa w some thing yellow lying on the stones. Coming nearer, she fancied it a pine shaving and looked after the boy again. She saw him stop short in a crowd of people a t a crossing and come back as fast as he wmf, so that just before she reached the shaving he dived and picked it up, not a sha­ ving atall, but a long slimy banana skin. Flinging it in­ to a refuse barrel he only waited long enough to say: "Somebody else might have slipped on it", and was off again. I t was a little thing to do, hu t the oneglanee of t he boys clear, gray eyes made the la­ dy's heart warm toward the noisy fellow. He did not slip himself; he was far past the danger, and when one is in a hurry it is a great bother t o go over the same ground twice; but the'somebodyelse' might slip, so for the sake of this unknown somebody the hurrying boy came back, and it may be saved the life or limb oi a feeble old man or a tender young child .—Angelus.

And thank God, no one need go far to find such books. I do not mean merely relig­ ious books, excellent as they are in these days; I mean any books which help t o make us better and wiser and sober­ er and more charitable per­ sons; any books which will tell us to despise what is vulgai and mean, foul and cruel and t o love what is noble and high-minded, pure and just. In our own English language Bishop Spalding:—And so we may read by hundreds, there are individuals—and books which will tell of all they are born to teach and virtue and of all praise; the rule—for whom to live is to stories of good men and wo­ grow; who, forgetting what men; of gallaut and heroic they have been and what they actions, of deeds which we are, think ever only ofbecom ourselves should be proud of ing more and more.

As it is they have only raised a smile, and re­ called the adage "Give a dog a bad name, etc." Although nothing definite is known on the subject it seems to be the opinion of the majority of democrats that the committee on Rules of the House will not recom­ mend the restoration of all the appropriation billstothe Committee or Apprcpria* tions, as they weresomeyears ago, and as Representatives Holman, Savers, Dockery and other champions of econ­ omy wish them to be again. It is possible that the com­ mittee may conclude to get the views of a democratic caucus before acting on this very important matter. Representative Springer has prepared the first oi the series of tariff bills with which it is proposed to assault the present class-favoring law, and it will be submitted to the Ways and Means Com­ mittee in a few days, proba­ bly this week. It will put wool on the free list, and place carpets on about the basis proposed by the Mills bill. Ex-Representati ye Perk ins, of Kansas, who is to attempt to fill the vacant chair of the late Senator Plumb, by right of a gubernatorial appoint­ ment, did not make a repu­ tation to be very proud of during the four sessions he served as a member of the House. As a statesman he was a bad misfit, but as a blind, bitter partisan, look­ ing slight of everything but the momentary success of his party, he was a howling suc­ cess. His career in the Sen­ ate will probably be but a repetition of that in t h e House. The amount of sugar boun ty so paid, under the McKinley tarif law, is nearly one million dollars; to be exact, $962, 930. Although the administra­ tion estimate for the pay­ ment oi pensions for tne fis­ cal year beginning July 2st, 1892, is only—mark the on­ ly—144,000.000, thos^ who have devoted much study to the subject predict that it will require at least $20,000, 000 more.

Michael Cook lived near the top of the Blue Ridge. Peter Cook, father of Ambrose and Samuel,lived a short distance easto* Jordan Councill's store. Ambrose v. s a married man. I was living at my father s in Burke county, N. C., at that time. I owned a horse and wagon. A strange man came to me one day and told me his name was Ambrose Cook; that he lived near Jor­ dan Councill's store inj| Ashe Co., and that he had a broth­ er driving a stage at Swananoah Gap; that th?y had re­ ceived a letter saying he had been thrown from the stage and his skull fractured and wanted me to go with him af ter him. I agreed to take my wagon, work his horse and go. It was now near night, but he insisted onstartingat once, which we did. After go­ ing about 1 1 / 2 miles, going down a slant, his rnarebegan to kick. 1 refused to go fur­ ther with the kicking mare but agreed to go back and get my horse and work him. When I started hehanded me his pocket book saying: There is my pocket book with $75 i» it, go get your horse and take your money out of it." When I got home 1 opened his pocket book and found 75 cts. in it. When I got back to the wagon he was lying in it fast asleep. We went on 6 or 8 miles and stayed over the night. Next morning, (Saturday) we met a man who said that he had seen Cook's brother only a few days ago, and that he was all right. On Sunday mor­ ning he got. a mule of the man we stayed with and went to see his brother and came back ip the evening and had a five-dollar bill, he said he got of his brother to pay me and our expenses. On Mon­ day morning we started home He got after me to buy his mare, saddle, bridle blanket and umbrella, all new, and a thousand pounds of bacon which he claimed to have at iiis father's. He proposed to take $100 for them all. I had a brass cased watch which cost me $18, an excel­ lent time keeper, a fine gold chain which cost me $12. I proposed to take his proper­ ty at $100. if he would take the watch and chain for $30, a bear skin, I used for a sad­ dle cover, at $3.50, my note on six months tune for $30; allow me $4 for my wages, making in all $67.60, and the balance of $32.50 in weaver's sleys on our return home. To this be agreed and gave me an order to his father in Ashe county for 1000 lbs. of bacon. I went home a n d then went to his father's and found him as he had said, living near Jordan Councill's store, in Ashe Co., but there was no bacon there for me. His father excused, his con­ duct toward me by telling me of a misfortune his son had m e t with. H esaid, h e w a s crossing the river in a canoe, had a gun in his hand and months for one dollar.

We learn that on Cove Creek n num­ ber of families are afflicted; some of them have been bad off, but most cases are im­ proving. Ma]. Vannoy and John Elrod and Mrs. Elrod have had a severe attack, but are now improving. We saw them on Monday, and they all show that they bave worsted by the vigorous at­ tack. We read an extract from a Michigan paper a cure that some doctor had recommend ed. He says take a 301ton shirt, dip it in saltwater and dry it and wf,ar it jmext, to the skin.

Anotner doctor says to "take a. pill of assafoetida four times per day, it will break up the grippe." Turpentine and oil /is good. Quinine and good whiskey is good also. We could take the quinine, but what about the whiskey? We might worry a few gills down also. Try these remedies; all very simple and no harm in them as we know, unless you take too much whiskey.

WATAUGA L892. A POLITICAL BLUNDER. New lork Wo.ld. The choice of the democrat ic candidate for the presiden­ cy should be determined by the free will of the democrat­ ic party. No nomination secured by sharp practice or machine ma nipulation can command the hearty approval of a party founded in democratic coneep tfons of free, popular action. No such means can be used in behalf of any candidate without doing serious* hurt to his cause. These are the truths which the Woild has earnestly press ed upon the attention of pol­ iticians and political mana­ gers. They are truths which politicians and political man agers will do well to heed. In such matters it is well to avoid not only evil but the appearance of evil. The call­ ing of New York's convention to select national delegates a t an unusual time and up­ on unpicedentedly short no­ tice is a blunder. Those most concerned need not be surprised if it is resen­ ted as a. wrong. A ' t?uL}e<*U' Takes (|uiek Leave. A special from Chicago to the New York World says: William Long, a negro, was arrested last night while try­ ing to dispose of stolen silver ware. He was locked up, and two hours afterward the turn key found him hanging by his suspenders, apparently dead. Long was cut down by the police and pronounced dead. It was decided t o take the body to the Michael Reese hospital on the way to the morgue, and get a doctor's certificate. By order of the hospital physicians. Long's body was carried into thedis sectingroom. The surgeon and two assistants entered. "Tliis would be a good sub ject t o work on, uoys," said tlie surgeon. "I've been loo­ king for a nigger for some time." "He seems too big for the table," said the other; " I think I'll cut him in two and place half of him in the other room." At these words the suppos­ ed corpse jumped from theta ble and before the police or physicians could recover their astonishment, escaped out of the window, which was on the second floor. The police ran down,7and after a ehase,®captured Williams^haffi car ried Jiim back to the cell. The Nevv York Advertiser says that "the work of civilizing Afri­ ca goes steadily oil, though there are some queer phases in the eudeavor. For instance, Boston a lone is sending to that benighted region an average of700,000 gal­ lons of rum a year. The rapidity with which the Africans are ab­ sorbing Boston civilization may be inferred from the fact that the export of rum to the Gold Coiast has increased to these figures from 251,000 gallons in 1889. A few more years of civilization, •and the Gold Coast will be a'gold cure' that will cure. The DEMOCRAT twelve months for one debar. NO. 27. SAM JONES' SAYINGS. These little dude3 vthoplay billiards, drink whiskey and go to wine suppers, they live in pigdom. If a man behaves tolerably well nowadays he can stay in the church. 1 heard an old fellow say the other day t h a t he had been in the church forty years and had not been turned out yet. You can't even try t o got whiskey out of tke tbwfl, but some old fellow will say, Why the grass will grow in the streets. Well, let's have more hay and less hell. Tell me what you love and hate, and 1 will tell you what your character is. A fellow who wanfcg to go t o heaven because he's afraid of hell, is like a rabbit with the dogs after him. He wants to get out of danger; he don't care particular w h e r e he goes; he just wants t o go somewhere. Whenever I see an old maid, I know that some man has not done his duty. When I see an old bachelor, I know I see an old hog. These fashionable ladies are no more like what God Al­ mighty made them, than if a Chinaman had whittled them out of white pine. Thesejittle preachers. I nev er did say they were not call­ ed to preach, but if they were called by the Lord, he must havecalled them t o k e e p them out of deviltry. A Methodist knows he has got religion, and is afraid he will lose it. A Presbyterian knows he can't lose it, but is afraid he hasn't got it. Every good lfrabrt a man implants drives out ail evil one. A girl who wears high-heal­ ed shoes is a good little thing but she aint got much sense. Common sense is the most uncommon thing in the world to-day. I like t o see a gfrl who can play on thecook stoveas well as on the piano. The intellectual man is the man who keeps his eyes open and sees things a s they are. Scott's Ultimatum. Mofgantou Herald. While on a business visit t o Lenoir last week, the editor had the pleasure of a call on brother Scott, of the Topic, who was found in his den, dashing off Addisonian sen­ tences, while three printers' sat on his table and called lustily for "copy." Bob Deal, of the Will esboro Chronicle, dropped in while we were there, and we three discussed the question, "Who is the man for President?" Deal fa voted Hill and Scott opposed him, "beause he is a bachelor and bachelors are no good." and then Deal accused Scott of having matrimonial inten­ sions and the meeting broke up in a row. Deal left Lenoir in a huff and Scott forwarded his ultimatum t o Wilkesboro on Tuesday, in which he re­ quired Deal tar withdraw his offensive remarks about inar ried men, apologize forhisinsinuation that S'ffottcouldn't marry if he would, make re­ parations for kicking over the 7opi&stripod, and salute the Topic's flag, which is a n apron rampant on a shoot­ ing stick. The presidential question, in the mean time,* remains unsettled. �—-"•» 1116 W At B.dg ^ D r8.t, 3iH D ?j A DEMOCRATIC family nowspaper devoted to the interests of County, State and Nation.

The Springer bill putting wool on the free list and re­ ducing duties on w o o 1 1 e n goods, has, together with other similar measures, been reported to the House, and will come up along with the silver bill. The woollen schedule is one of the most important in the McKinley act, and Springer's pet measure may be taken as an attack on the very back­ bone of the protective sys­ tem. But that is true only in its political aspect, for we are gratified to observe thai many of the woollen manu­ facturers are satisfied that the proposed change should be made, and that it will be for the interest of the manu­ facturing business n o less than beneficial to the coun­ try a t large. We have often reflected on the anaraoly pre­ sented by our people who use such hard common sense in dealing with most subjects, and who have endured so pa­ tiently the notorious and op e n hardships incident to this woollen schedule in the tariff act. A good piece of woollen stuff such as any man should be aule t o wear costs here twice as much as it does across che ocean, while the freight rates are entirely insignificant. Why should our people deprive themselves of substantial clothing a t reasonable prices? The prac­ tical American has not shown his usual discernment in this matter, but has been led by other considerations to sus­ tain a policy damaging every family among the poorer classes of the United States. The importance of this par­ ticular schedule is also shown in the fact that while Presi­ dent Cleveland devoted a rues sage exclusively to the sub­ ject of tariff reform,, the main topic discussed in it was the woollen duties. Mr. Spring­ er has thus put himself very much in line with Mr. Cleve1an d' s o w n p r ogra m. We note t h a t the commit­ tee has also reported favora­ bly Mr. Turner's bill, admit­ ting free of duty, all machin­ ery to be used in making cot­ ton bagging. That is also a step in the right direction; and we would like to see a further move made to ex­ empt from all duty such ma­ chinery as is to be used in cotton manufacturing. How can our cotton goods com­ pete with Great Britain in the markets of the world, when our machinery costs double what the same articles cost in England? It is to be re­ membered that the relative value of the machinery in c o t t o n manufacturing is greater than in almost any other industry, and we are thus severely handicapped a t the outset. Here is loom for reform, and the South i s greatly interested, for i, h e hope of the South is in fhe expansion of cotton manu­ facturing here among the cot­ ton fields.

A lad in Boston, rather small for his years, works in an office as errand boy for four gentlemen who do business there- One day the gentlemen were chafing him a little about being so small,and said to him: '".You never will amount to much; you never can do business; you are too small." "Well," said he, ' small as i am T can do something which none of you four men san do." "Ah, what is that?" they asked. "I don't know as I ought to tell you." he replied. But they were anxious to know, and urged him to tell what he could do that none of them were able to do. "I can keep from swearing," said the little fellow.

Hodge's, but the Lord knows what is uest, and all of us ought t o be impress­ ed by these providences that our death is approaching too, and may we all be ready. ''Be ye also ready, for in such an hour as ye think not, the Son of man coraeth." If he comes not in judgment in our day, he will come and call for us by death. I also knew well old Bro. Jesse Greer who died on Banner Elk. I was his pas tor a t one time when he lived in Ashe. He was a good chris­ tian man, and has entered in­ t o t h a t rest that remains for the people of God. I also la­ ment the death of G. W. Green of Gap Creek. He was not a member of the church, so far as I know, bul claimed a hope, I think. He was a good neighbor a n d citizen. W e have great reason to be thankful for the good health of our community, and, in fact, the health of the entire county is good. The weath­ er has been fine up to Sunday last, when it sleeted, rained or snowed all day. But March has opened this morning with prospects of spring-like wea­ ther. The farmers think they have a good stand of small grain unless it be some rath­ er wet bottom. I t is begin­ ning t o look green, but makes the least show on the ground for many years, a t this time of the year. Notwithstand­ ing the fine weather we have had, the nights have been cold and frosty, and kept all veg­ etation back. Thesmall grain crop has plenty of time yet t o come out. The farmers are well along with their spring work. Oat sowing is the order of the day now. Our school has dropped off some for work, but is still well attended. I was hoping t h a t the school would be small enough for Prof. Phil­ lips t o manage this month and the remainder of t h e term, but he informed me last Friday that my services would be needed anyway an­ other month. 1 am only anx­ ious t o get out t o rest a lit­ tle. I t is too hard t o teacli live days in the week, arid preach every Saturday and Sunday. I have not stopped a day this year, but hope I may be enabled t o w o r k through another month with out serious injury t o my health. 1 am much pleased with the DEMOCRAT , and it is the most welcome paper we take. Brother D. C. Harman has hit the nail on the head in his article on "Change." I say good. I am always ready to change for the better, when 1 know it is for the better, but I am satisfied with those old Bible truths as our fathers and mothers understood them by the aid of the Holy Spirit. If we ever change, let it be t o truths that will elcv a t e. moralize, regenerate and lead t o Christ more peo­ ple than those we have loved and held so long.

We send out. the DEM­ OCRAT every week to our nu­ merous subscribers, with our own opinions and those of our correspondents. Of course they are criticized by outreaders more or less. What suits some others criticize. All don'tseeand believe alike, in regard to politics, religion, orother importa nt questions. I t would be hard to find two farmers who would agree about every minutia of far­ mers. Politics is a vital ques­ tion for the citizens t o con­ sider. On this question hangs our prosperity, o r b a n k ruptcy. It is as vital to the prosperity of a nation a s is the christian religion to the prosperity of the church and the advancement of Christ's Kingdom There are true God given principles on which our polit­ ical structure should be es­ tablished and maintained for the general prosperity of the people. We often hear men say that they have no inter­ est in polities, which we think is caused by a proper -appre­ ciation of the importance of the subject. Every person, who is capable o r understand ing, should inform themselves on political questions, so as t o understand the principles maintained by the two op­ posing political parties and more especially on the tariff, for this is the great question now before the people. Men differ on the tariff. I t is maintained by the advocates of protection that a high tar­ iff brings prosperity t o the people. The advocates of low tariff maintain that a high protec­ tive tariff i3 unwise and bur­ densome to the working mas­ ses that a tariff for revenue is the onl.5 legal tariff and that this kind of tariff should be levied on luxuries of the rich man and not so much on the poor working man's goods; that the rich ought t o bear more of the burdens of expenses than they now do. The democratic party, who are the advocates of a lower tariff than the McKinJey hill imposes, say that the tariff laws have brought on t h e n u m erou s fa i 1 u res, st ri kes tramps and bank ruptcy, and t h a t the wages of laboringmen and women are reduced instead of being raised. The DEMOCRAT opened ' i t s col­ umns for a discussion of the tariff, which has been induc­ ed in by Dr. Carter, defending the high tariff, known as the MoKinley law. In opposition t o his view we have publish­ ed the views of "Alexander Bill,'' a n d also excellent productions from a Northern gentleman, o f fine intelli­ gence, who writes from Rhea's Forge, Term.

The gentleman idealizes a t some length on what might be done in North Carolina, growing and manufactuiing wool under the stimulons of the present tariff, ft is but fair to show what has taken place in other states under this same stimulous, and let the people judge for them­ selves. The first tax was put on wool in 1867, and instead of fostering the growing of wool, the number of sheep east of Missi«sppi River has decreased one-ha If; while in the country at large the in­ crease in 25 years has been but $12,000,000, about 80 per cent, while the increase.of population in the same time kas been 75 percent. In 1867 we produced 80 per cent of uir raw wool, to-day we pro­ duce but 60 per cent of our total consumption. Common people not being able to ouv high-priced woollens were for 3ed into using the shoddy and mungo, which have ta­ ken the place of the fleeces o f 29,000,000 sheep.

The Situation and the InsvitabdiyKesuIt With cotton selling lower than last year, and the McKinley tariff oppressing the Southern planters a s they have never been burdened with taxation before since the war, they are too ready to listen to the talk of wild theorizers who devised all sorts of fantastic schemes for government relief. They lose sight of the fact t h a t their only hope for relief is to re­ main in the Democratic par­ ty and elect a Democratic President arid a Democratic Congress pledged to the abo­ lition of the tariff law which lays its heavy hand upon the products of their fields to fill the pockets of the protected manufacturers. If the Third party did no worse than elect its own men to Congress it would still be able to offer no good reasons for Democrats leaving their old party t o swell its ranks. But the great er danger lies in the fact t h a t it may so divide the Demo­ cratic vote as to make it pos­ sible for the Republicans t o carry many districts they could not otherwise control and they may even, by di­ viding the vote for presiden­ tial electors, give one or two Southern States over to the Republicans in the presiden­ tial election, thus insuring the re-election of President Harrison. If the people of the South, by wasting their ballots on Third party can­ didates, give the presidency and Congress over into the hands of the Republicans, the inevitable result will be the passage of the force bill and disappearance (J all chance for lightening the burdens of the tariff for a t least four years m o re.— Washington dispatch to the Baltimore Sun A Big- Raid iu Wilkes'.

Clarke, of Clarkton, came down to the city yesterday on a business trip, and will be here a day or two. Mr. Clark tells us that the people in his section are very uneasy about the myriads of caterpillars which have again made their appearance along the Carolina Central rail-road in Bladen county. He says the caterpillars have literally stripped whole forests of white and black gum trees of their leaves, so t h a t t he trees a re a s de vo id of foliage as if it were mid winter. The cause of alarm t o the people, however, is t h a t the caterpillars buum attacked the fruit trees, and it is feared they will do great damage. I t is also appre­ hended that they might turn on the growing crops in the fields and also bring about their utter destruction. I t will be remembered that last .year about this time great armies of caterpillars made their appearance in portions of Bladen county, and t h a t the trains on the Carolina Central rail-road were actually brought to a stand still where thousands of caterpillars got mashed under the wheels of the train in their migrations across the track— Wilmington Mes­ senger.

Coming Down to Business. The Democrats of the House of Representatives seem at last to have realized the folly of frittering away valuable time. Yesterday, despite the opposition of the Republi cans, the rules were suspend­ ed, on motion of Mr. Bryan, the able and aggressive tar­ iff reformer from Nebraska, and the Free-binding-twine bill was passed by the deci­ sive vote of 183 yeas t o 47 nays. The bill had been ful­ ly discussed, and under Mr. Bryan's lead the Democrats decided that no more time should be wasted upon it.

We could hold up to popu­ lar view t he economy and fru gality that have been prac­ ticed, and could remind the people that fully threefourths of every legislat ure since 1870 have been farmers. We could point with pride to our excellent Governors-thought ful, patriotic and progressive and also to our pure and learned judges, who have, in the administration o f the law, tempered justice with mercy. Thus taking up seriatim every branch of our home government we could chal­ lenge the admiration of our people for the excellence of democratic rule and u r g e them to maintain it. With such a foundation we could with reason urge the people to stand by the democratic party and n o t allow the State government t o fall aguin into the hands of the republicans. Thus we might avoid the necessity of adopting a n y platform—and leave t h a t matter at large, t o be deter mined upon so far as Federal matters are concerned by the National convention t h a t meets a t ( hicago.
