But, like jn in J others, he Jia neer seen any but tlie hai -side.

IV know that niany jgood people not members of the Alliance have never read or studied the Alliance measures for reform. W'e propose .4 gire them one at a timf and try ajad explain, iti detail tb.e olects and reasons. A good many wejllrmeaning people have accepted the . iss,ertions of certain prejudiced paperd apd politi cians without sftopping tq reason the matter and see if my good might com out of the.e measures. columns ot the AVatcii vast re open at all times and to any person wno m.ay wish to say anything in favor cf o,r against the.-e measure.". A free and .b,pnest discussion will Jo no harm. The question of land reform comes first. The Allianca depiands jaws prohibitory to alien ownership of land. Are there good ivkuoiis for that de mand? Let's sse. Foreigners own in fee simple 01,900,000 acrel Railroads own and control Vy niortgage nnd otherAvise 90,000,000 acien. Statis, tics show that there are real estate mortgages on land in this country imonnting to the euornibus sum of .33,083,572,000. Now these are facts. Is tbre any- tbing wrong in the demaiifl? Should not Americans own America. Should we sit still longer and allow powerful syndicates to use cprupt legislators as tools to wrench our soil jfrom us at such-a rate? If there is ally objections to this measureisoiue one will please say so and in what particular and let us right the wrong at one?!. 'CHE ROAD QUESTION.

Wo have the rock, now fonaway to do the work. ).'.' The plan outlinedWn thii paper two weeks ago was nothing new. It has een tried in various places', especially in Virginia. Mecklenburg county has tried it and they expect to continue. Cabarrus county is agitatiiig the mat ter. Mauy of the Ijest jfarmers in Rowan county are anxious to begiu the work. The business mien of Salis bury arewide awake as to the necessi ty of public improvement. J We would be glad if our business people and far- niers would unite on this matter and start the ball in motion. While it is true that it is a costly business, it can be done a little at a time, i the worst places made good and-finally all the roads will be good for all time to -i-i .... come. jvery cent of the money wi be kept in th county in which the work is done. It will go into circula tion and everybody will get a -chance to handle some of it. The columns ol the Watchman are open fir artich s either pro or con. Let's discuss it. The great colleges of the eountry that started "schools of journalism' 8 vTeral years ago with the declared in tention of turning out ready-made newspaper men have discovered what is already known by every veteran newspaper worker, that they had at tempted an imposibility and have abol ished that branch of their curriculum. A college education is a very desirable thing for a beginner in newspaper work, but it is only hard practical ex perience and touching elbows with all kinds and classes of people that can make a goiKlnewpaper man, and no matter. how many years he has labored at the profession he will find out some- thing new about" it every day. Jt is only the beginner who thinks he knows it all. Mr. Harrison told one of his audi diences that many'.of us are looking forward to th? time wheu we shall h ive one cent letter postage, but he did not, say that he would recomiriend in his next annual message to Con gress; , uLooking forward" will not ac complish much, it is putting your own shoulder to the wheel tharacomplishes things.

Gcnpoweee is dangerous any wnere and at all times. At Home, Itaiy last Friday week 205 tons tlat was' stored in the city exploded. Sevn persous. were killed and morn than 200 woand- ed. Much damage was done to proper-; ty. St. Pauls and St. PeWs churches were greatly dani igetl. ; M;tny relics were destroyed. 1 But little idea can bel formed of the force of 205 tons of gun powder, jt should nlways lje stored a long distance from dwellings. I-States-viye last week some of the politicians put Major Kobbins forward to auk some questions questions that he could easily answer himself, for he is an able man. ThefMjoV was an swered correctly, and so the Jtndinark and others are nad. jr. Terrell made about the same speech that he made at other points in the State,- all of which haye been commended. Whatever msiy be ones ppinion of ir. Harrison as a president and states man it must be con.ee4sd by .all whose acquaintance he bits made whvte on Sis present tour that he is the jvosessor of a happy faculty ot saying jtist the right thing at the right time aHd place, and it is undoubtedly a valuable faculty in politics,. Mr. Cleveland now appears to be trying to "hedge" on the free coinage question. He .Reclines to jsay whether jt elected president, he would veto the free coinage bill,, should one be passed by Congress, n the ground that by that tini free coinage may have be come a necessity for the country. Senator Pujmb struck the bulls eve when he 'aid that it would not make the slightest difference to this country if Italy sev.ered all diplomatic relations with the United States, and never to be renewed. Qen, Benjamin F. Butler has at (last fiiet bis match. A Rhode Island judge had him forcibly ejected from the court room, after refusing to allow bim to address the court iu behalf of a llietit. Ex-Senator Inqalls is getting a lot of free advertising from the news papers this spring. Perhaps he intends taking the place left vacant in the cir cus business bv the late P. T. Barnuni. Mr. Harrison did not seem so large a man iu the Republican League con vention as he does in the newspapers. He was almost lost in Mr. Blaine's shadow. A Massachusetts man with more money than brains proposes to erect a ar J i -:n i 1 v ,vvv uug iiuusc, inu tiu Lucie iiitr people wlu wonder at the discontent of the poor. We shall need the strongest no w iu the world if we are to be held re sponsible for the pictures of foreign rulers published in our alleged comic papers. B ism ark appears to be a Combina tion that is to German polities what James G. Blaine and Grover Cleveland are to our own. Killing one's mother-in-law is a hanging crime in Ohio, even if it be done with the most loving intention. The Farmers' Alliance appears to be preparing to give somebody trouble in New York. From Betlieny Academy. Correspondence of the Watch man. This year our farmers planted in cot ton heavier than ever, notwithstanding the present low price and future indica tions. This week will mainly end planting in this section. The 'prospect for wheat and oat crops is good. ' Rockwell still pulls upward. Building is progressing and lots are for sale cheap. Rev. Hales is conducting a protracted meeting at Gold Hill for two weeks. Gold Hill mines are working about 40 hands. The finds are good. Mr. Eli Beaver the other day showed us an old fashioned flesh fork, iron, and bearing the inscription, "G. M. C. 1766 " He proposes to carry it to the fair -at Salisbury next fall. A church will be built at. Elm Grove Alliance soon. The congregation will be organized the second Sunday in June, at three o'clock, Rev. G. H. Cox preach ing at that hour. The church will be Lutheran. We were visitited by a cgrps of light ning rod men recently. This is an Alli ance section and their gales, of course, were small. Our .men buy Iheir own rods and set them up for one third the cost of other cbmpanies. One cot wrathv and wished the lightning would tear some old house to pieces. Such men are not. needed, and will do us a favor to to stay away. Duusus. Wanted to See the First Train. : Ic is reported that when Editor Elkins. of the Stanly Observer, heard the first train approaching Albemarle he jumped out of his office through the window and broke to the depot bareheaded, iu his shirt-sleeves, aud wearing only one sus Eender. Spectators who were not too adly frightened to notice it say that he cleared twenty-seven feet at ever jump. Arriving at the depot he climbed upon the building and danced a jig on top f the roof. All efforts to induce him to come down where unavailing, and he roosted on his lofty perch all night, oc casionally awaking the echo(s with "Hail Columbia," rendered in a kev loud enough to be heard ! four miles. Laterreports indicate that this excite ment has somewhat abated, and fuarsare entertained that he will surviv. Men roe Register. A Complaint of Unjust flutes. Mr. Editpr-Utixesin and Stanly counties each, have hejped to -build the Yadkin .railroad. During the recent bad weather tlie roads jBrere.too" bad tp haul wood over and it was aJ most impossible for Salisbury people to get ioocL oine parties shipped it from Staly couutX,a dis tance of 21 tu.iles. This wood was furnished and loaded on the the cars at $1 per cord. The railroad clargel 9$ cents per cord to haul it here. Now that is within five cents ot the value of the wood when loaded on the cars. Is it right? Should the people be treated that way? After ailojwiiig ourselves to be taxed to help- build tbe road wc have to pay as much in freight as the value ot the ftvfeht. The company did not hav to take the cars both ways. They were down the road aud had not the wood been put on would haye been brought back empty. Again. The company charge the the .Salisbury spoke and' Caudle factory $11 for car loads of timber a distance of only ten mile. Is this not .too much? We hope this will be brought to the the attention of the master of tranportation, and if he fails to remedy the evil then the Railroad Commission should be notified and,aked to deal with the mat ter. .

Elm C rove Alliance has recently added several hundred dollars to their ware house funds. Their store will now hardly hold their goods. We suggest that they move to Rockwell and build a large house. Mumps and whooping cough have paid us a visit and judging by appearance have come to stay. Several deaths have occurred from the latter. Many of our farmers feel quite blue over present prices of cotto,n. Some of our most, extensive cotton raisers have nearly all their cotton on hand, yet there will be more planted than ever this year. The Womens Home and Foreign Mis sionary Society of St. Peters sold a quilt to the highest bidder last Saturday a week for four dollars. Each member pieced a star and then they met for the quilling or a jolly good time, we don't know which, but suppose the latter, but a lady member says both and I suppose she knows.

The mean, temperature and average rain-fall for the State of North Carolina for the first three baonths of the year are as follows: Jan uary, mean temperature, 41.3 degrees, which is 0.21elow the normal; average rain-fall, 4.84 inches which is 0 20 above j the normal.

Since April 8th remarkable fine weather has prevailed, with but little rain-fall, abundant sunshine and excess of tem perature.

The reports of correspondents for t he week ending Friday, April 21th, indicate that remarkably fine weather his pre vailed. Abundaut sunshine, excess of lemperature and deficiency of rain fall have caused most rapid growth of vege tation and crops. Planting corn, and cotton is progressing very rapidly. Much corn is up well and some cotton, With good stand reported. Winter wheat and oats generally looking very well. Considerably less acreage of spring oats and wheat planted than usual on ac count of very, wet weather at proper time of planting.
