SEPT, 1 tti, law. . -TO DEMOCRATS - We hear some talk occasion ally about Independent candi date in this county this year. We honestly do not thins it a good year for Independebt; still we have nothing to say just yet about that side of the house. But to the Democrats who came to polls and cast their ballots for th9ir choice in the primary election we have a word to say. You did your duty in that contest, you voted for who you wauted. If your men were nominated, stand by and sup port tbem. If they were defeat ed, it is your imperative duty to stand by the nominees also. The majority must rule, such is the foundation principle of Democracy. We must learn to give and take. We are all Dem ocrats. We must support Dem ocratic nominees. The Demo crats of Wilson coonty those worthy the name, those who have done the fighting and borne the burden in the heat of the day will do this. THE SECOND DISTRICT. Speaking of the Democratic Candidate for Congress in this District the Nashville Argonaut says: We give Mr. Rogers our hearty support because he is a thorough Democrat and other wise well qualified to represent the district. We support no man for office because he is a farmer or lawer or belongs to any particular class, but because he "is worthy and well qualified" and is sound in his Democracy. Let the Democrats of the 2d district determine to conquer and go into the fight expecting to win and work with zeal and hopefulness, and success will crown their efforts. Let . us send a solid representation to the next Congress from the "Old North State." 1 ;very town ana village in Forth Carolina should have a young Men's Democratic Clcb in good working order. It is the imperative duty of Democrats to organize and prepare for the coming campaign. The Republicans are deter mined to controll the L'egisla ture, if possible, and if Demo crats are too confident they will do so. Nothing but over confi dence on our part can make a Republican victory pisaible. a Convention of Democratic Clubs has been called to meet in Kal- eigh next Wednesday ,the 24th. This call meets the approbation of the State Excutive Commit tee, a Dig garnering ana a -grand time is anticipated. Sena tors Vance and Ransom and oth er N. C orators will certainly be a t the Convention and Gov. Hill of N. Y. Mr. Cleveland, Mr. Mills, Senators Carlisle and others are expected Senators Ransom and Vance have taken this in hand. - The railroads grant the lowest rates ever given to any political gathering in N. 0. and reduced rates for board have been secured at the hotels for delegates and club members. The State Campaign will be formally opened in Raleigh on the 25th inst. THE WILSON HABEET The- Hearty Endorsement Given it "by a PiU County Tofcacco Grower. Editor Advaxce- I feci it my duty as a citizen of Pitt county, and a friend of the W i 1 so n -Tobacco Warehouse, to speak a few words through -your excellent paper to my friends who seem so much demoralized by the results on tbe openiug sale of tha 10th inst. Friends, just think for a moment! Snch a scene was nev er before witnessed by the people of Wilson and adjomning counties "Everybody rushed to see the monkey shaved" and, considering the intrusion, I believe the prices paid in Wilson will more than com- ete with any other market. Do not hold the management responsi ble for your tobacco being trampled under foot. It would have taken a company of soldiers with bayonets to have kept that crowd off. And now a word to your people, Mr Editor. Do not crowd tbe buy ers. Give tbem room ana light and air, and you will be pleased with the results. The farmers will then go home with sbekles and smiles I will corf pare sales with any who sold at any warehouse in the State I sold the stalk through, from the lugs to the tips, for $24 per 100 pounds. I expect to be able' to compete ith aD j man In prices as long as I sell my tobacco in Wilson Good luck to the Wilson Ware use.' Lookout! I am. om p g , again witb mora tobacco, witn hope of Buccess.: iiVer YouWi John T. Phillips, Pitt County, Sept. 13, 1890. -. 1 m . . Good News The price of peanuts will go way uu next .vear. "The peanut crop of this year will not be sufficient to prevent a marks ed increase in the cost oftnefcation- al fruit" say Mr. S. B. Avery, of Petersburg, Va., to a New York Star man. "Peanuts will tw higher uext year than now if the present indications are correct. The price now is the highest it has been in five years. Wholesalers get 9 and 10 cents a pound. Xbis win laii on somewhat when the new crop is ready, about Nov. 1, but if the re ports received, not only from the peanut-growing sections of Virginia, but Tennessee and north Carolina, are correct the reaction will be bat temporary. The present high prices are the result of tbe short crop oi the past two years. Last season only about one-third ot the usua yield was harvested. This year, while vines look thrifty and tbete has apparently been no draw-back for the growers, reports state that there are few nnts on the vines and the yield will be small. If this trne, growers may hold back tbe crop and maintain the high prices. Few people have any idea or the amount ol peanuts consumed each year. Virginia leads in this indus try, and produces over 2,000,000 bushels a year; Tennessee averages about 500,000 bushels, and North Carolina 100,000 Most of those sent to New York are grown in Virginia and are shipped from Pes tersbnrg. The harvesting of tbe new crop wiP begin in Oct.. 1." ' The crop in this county is fine, we are told. The vines are wen fruited. We have heard such big stories about tbe crop that we are afraid to father some of them. If Mr. Avery is correct Wilson county farmers, who raise peanuts, will do well to hold on to their crop till next spring. But with the price going up what will the small boy and the average darkey dot. And if the prices get high will our good friend Bishop Lyman be able to procure enough to put him to sleep! Al these grave questions should be carefully considered before advanc ing the price. A friend of ouro has promised to give us a bushel or two and if the Bishop's supply runs short we are going to send him ours. We trust collections will be good enough for as to sleep withoat hav ing to eat peanuts. Wilsor, As Usual Ahead The New Berne Journal of 4th Inst. contains tbe following: "Mr. Jesse Harrison saw the statement of a Durham man that he had a 15 ounce tomato. To show what kind New Berne raises he has brought us down one of t he Cleveland Beaux ty variety, that weighs 17 ounces. He had one tomato that weighed H poundc. Thirteen of his tomatoes weighed 195 ounces, an average of exactly 15 ounces each. A dozen of them filled an ordinary painted peck water bucket, such as are usually sold at groceries, full aud heaped up three inches above the brim. He did not think it worth while to tell about them "in tbe paper' but when he discovered that another town was bragging on a 15 ounce tomato be wanted to let them know that they were not beat ing New Berne. When our truckers get in a notion to show what they raise, othere places find it pretty difficult to equal New Berne pro- ducts.'' We will state, by way of parens thasis, that yon fellows dont know anything about big tomatoes. ;. Mr. B. J. Cobb, ot Wilsou, presented us with a tomato about six weeks ago which weighed 29 ouncus. Gome again. s GOOD FOB " SALT LAKE " . The Sins oi the Fathers Shall ba -Visited Upon the Children- : There was a Jew in the town of Wilson who once wanted to be nominated a u d the nomination was equivalent to an election on the Democratic ticket as alderman of the 5th ward He thought he should be nominated because he was for street improvements and the advancement ol the town in general. He was telling what be could do when elected. He said "Py Tarns, we will pave the town, issue bonds to be paid in 20 years and derive all the benefits from the improvements, and make oar chil dren pay for it." Mariun Free Lance. Of course everybody here knows that brother Griffin refers to our local celebrity, "Salt L ike" H irriss. The story is said to be a true one. While this may not be the best and most unselfish argument to use in favor of issueing bonds, it still has some virtue. , All improvements in a town makes property more valua ble and this naturally raises more money from taxation. Why not, issue bonds for $50,000 and put in a good system of waterworks! The Southern Educator Published at Durham, N. C, is offering several hundred dollars in cash prizes for essays upon various tsubjtfuts, with a view to encourage ing literary effort especially among Southern teachers. v. .The September numbers contains two offers of five dollars each for two hundred and fifty woris.
