; The South Wants Settlers.
' ' According to the plans of officials
of Southern railroads, a movement
Z will be inaugurated in the near f u
1 ture by which the South and South-
I east will secure its share of home
seekers who are leaving the North
' and Northeast finding homes in a
f warmer and more advantageous
climate.
, A large number of homeseekers
' f have been migrating to the South-
western States, and railroad repr
sentatives of this section intend to
ask the enforcements of rates from
X the Northern States to the South
' and Southeast by which many emi
"f grants can find homes in this sec-
4 tion.
' So interested have the officials be
' come that they propose to hold a
; meeting of all the railroads of the
country into Chicago when plans
can be discussed by which rates can
, be secured for bringing the home
r teekeas to the South and Southeast.
The movement was enthusiastical
f ly discussed at the midwinter cou
ference of the Southeastern Pas
, senger Association at Tampa, when
' ' was decided to ask the railroads of
the North and Northeast to put in
force reduced ratns to this section
$ of the country.
; There has been a grert advent of
the homeseekers to the Southwest,
' breaking all previous records. Over
," 10,000 settlers passed through Kan-
sas City recently.
With the splendid advantages
which the South possesses, there is
'' no reason why settlers should not be
' induced to come South. Ex.
i
i Mr David A Sikes, of Pisgah, paid
' the Courier a visit last week, the
$ first in three years but he says he has
i not been to Asheboro during that
time. He is one of our best farmers,
. and exhibited some fine corn which
A' he has been cultivating under the
j direction of Prof Massey, the well
I known authority on agriculture. He
j said he had been cultivating that
corn, growing his own seed since the
60s., and until six years ago he rare-
ly got more than one ear from the
j stalk. Under direction of Prof Mas-
sey he now raises two to the stalk
and frequently more in good soil.
,? Hefinds the Southern Agriculture
ist (which is sffere'd as a premium to
5 Courier subscribers who pay in ad
; vance) a great help in cultivating
t' .his farm.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D C,
Maich 10, 1006.
Ryan-Belmont.
Last week I warned you of the
dangers which threaten the demo
cratic party through RYAN-BEL
MONT control. And now my
statements have been confirmed by
a voice from the inside. Mr De
Lancy Nicoll, w ho acted as Chair
man of the Executive committee or
the Democratic National Committee
all through the last compaign, and
who knows every move that was
made, appeared for RYAN-BELMONT
in the Supieme Court of
New York defending the RYAN
BELMONT right to steal one
hundred million or so through the
street railroad merger, and brazenly
stated in open court that the hostili
ty of the Hearst papers to the mer
ger was caused solely for the reason
that RYAN-BELMONT had given
the nomination to Parker. When
De Lancy Nicoll makes such a dis
reputable statement openly you caii
bet it is the truth. Are you going
to let them give it to one of their
tools next time, or will you wake up
and see that the genuine Democrats
have a voice in the selection of a
representative man to head their
ticket?
This RYAN-BEMONT reptile is
one of the queerest and most danger
ous freaks of natural history. Its
head, Thomas F Ryan, is the most
dangerous individual in the United
States t-day, mentally, morally,
politically, and otherwise. Its tail,
August Belmont, is the least harm
ful in each of the same respects.
And although its tail is most often
in public view its head does all the
thinking for the combination. This
bunch of pirates of prosperity don't
care a rap for politics, anyway.
Their sole idea is to get control of
both parties, nominate one of their
deputy pirates on each ticket, anu
sit quietly back and hitch up new
schemes to absorb the money of
the country as fast as YOU PEO
PLE can earn it. If you want a
chance to see Democracy victorious,
md to be allowed to keep your
money after you have earned it,
take my tip and begin to root for
Hon Chas A Culberson of lexas as
our next Presidential nominee, and
watch him exterminate this band of
financial perverts.
Pure Food Bill.
When the pure food bill passed
the Senate its most pernicious
features had been so removed by
various amendments that, although
it still retained his name, Senator
Heyburn required an introduction
to it, as he could not recognize it as
his own. By the time the House
gets through with it we will prob
ably have a good pure food bill, as
it only needs a few additional
amendments to make it the same as
the amendment offered by Senator
Money, which is conceded to be the
best food bill offered at this season.
Senator Bailey's speech on this bill
was one of the ab'est made this
this session in the Senate, and he
tangled up Senator McCumber so
skillfully that he looked like a
bunch of bow knots on a bed spring.
Tillman Has Rate Bill.
Senator Tillman has been selected
by the Senate 'Committee to report
the railway rate bill. This necessi
tstes numerous conferences with the
President, and as the wielder of
pitchforks and lightning, and the
man with the strenuous teeth, have
the same regard for one another that
an agressive tomcat has for a suc
culent mouse, interesting times are
to be expected. So if you are awak
ened by a strange noise, accompan
ied by violent tremblings of the
United States, don't get scared. It
will only be the first conference.
Placing the rate bill in the hands
of Senator Tillman marks the first
time in our history that the fight
for aa administration measure has
been led by the leader of the minori
ty party and must depend on the
minority for passage. This proves
that the railway rate question is
good Democratic doctrine, and like
the ship subsidy bill is just a little
more Democratic thunder stolen by
the Republicai.8 to make them popu
lar with the people.

St Patrick's Day Party.
A pretty party for the seventeenth
of March may be given by having
all the decorations green, using
cheese clot.h of that piculiar green,
sacred to St Patrick Harps, potatoes
shamrocks and even the Japanese
jointed snakes may figure in the dec
orations. The Irish Hag may be pur
chased in all sizes and adds much to
the attractiveness of a room.
Cards may be the ampse'iient, or
the affair may be a luncheon at
which the following green and white
menu be served.
Cream of celery soup, sprinkle,
with chopped parsley, breasts of
chicken fried and served with Huffy
mashed potatoes ovtr which parsley
is sprinkled; celery sticks stuffed
with cottage cheese and chopped nuts
creamed cauliflower. The salad is of
white grape?, blanched almonds,
celery and apples and the dessert is
the palest green pistchin ice, served
in cloven forms. Tiny silk shamrock
pins ornament the nankins and jan
dy boxes are the most realistic imita
tions of liish potatoes. Carnations
and maiden hair ferns form the
center piece, with four candles in
glass, holders and green shades.

Mr and Mrs S II Hearne have in
their possession small phials con
taining samples of the water from
Moses' Well. It was sent them by
Mr Thos J Hurley, of New York,
who recently made a visit through
Egypt, and who is well lemembered
in Albemarle through severil visits
he has made to this place. The
well referied to is made famous by
the Bible story of Moses smiting the
rock, to quench the thirst of the
legions who were inarching with him
in the wilderness. It stands in full
view of Mt Siuui, where the Ten
Commandments were written.

Another Enterprise for Rockingham.
We learn that borings for water
have been going on around Rock
inham for some time for the pur
pose of getting a supply of water to
be used in a stamping plant soon to
be erected here. The right kind of
water it seems has been found near
the county home. It is said the
company owning the plant will
employ somewhere about 300 men.
This will be another important en
terprise for Rockingham, if all re
ports are tiue. Anglo Saxon.
