Ey WILLIAM II. BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C. Sunday Morning, July 12, 1891 POOR GENERALSHIP. The men who are leading in the Third Party movement may be hon est in it or they may not be. It may be their purpose to benefit the people whom they profess to repre sent or to benefit themselves. Mr. Pfeffer, for instance, who stands out as its most conspicuous exponent and champion, may be a patriot or a demagogue and a fraud. : But if the leaders in this movement be honest, as counsellors they show poor judg mant and, as leaders, the worst kind of generalship. As a factor in politics the Alliance menj united, were a mighty power, a power recognized by both of the great political parties. fThis was demonstrated political campaign without a single in the last which began Alliance man, as such, in Congress ed with sixty elected and end to Con gress, enough if it were not for the .unprecedented revolution in the membership of the House to give the Alliance representatives the bal ance of power and enable them to practically control if they could not dictate legislation. When to accomplish anything sub stantial it was necessary for the Alli ance men to stand together and pre sent a solid front, these short-sighted leaders flew off on a tangent, and called the new party into existence, .with its many-sided platform to dis tract and divide the Alliance, for di vide it will on that question. If their purpose was to benefit the farmers, whom they profess to rep resent, they resorted to the very worst method in the world to do it when they fesolved to enter the field against both of the "' old parties. There was neither good sense nor political strategy in this. Good sense and political gumption would have Suggested a combination with that party which came nearest to representing the opinions of the farmers of the country, and co-oper- . ating with it actively to accomplish not only the defeat, but the total overthrow of the oppos ing party. They should have made common cause with th"e Democratic party which did and does sympathize with them in some of their demands against the Repub lican party which sympathizes with - them in nothing. Having defeated the Republican party they could then have presented their demands to the Democratic party and if it , failed to respond in an acceptable way they would then have some ex cuse for a ' separate organization to promote the objects they had in - view. . That would have been politics with some lead mule sense in it, which might amount to something in the near future it not just now. -B . 1 it may oc answered that this would take too long, if they had to wait, to destroy the Republican party. and give battle, if . necessary, to the victor. That's true? It would, in the event it came to that, but 7 in all probability there would be no occa sion for any uprising against - the Democratic party, which would, if in full control of the Government effect such reforms and present such measures ot relief: that there would be no more thought of a Third Party. , : ..; '! V-;.' V If they look for practical results from independent' and separate ac tion now how long will it be before they; can control the legislation of i Congress j and carry out their ideas? How long will it take them to get possession of the Presi dency, the House of Representatives and the Senate? They can do noth ing in the way of j materially accom plishing their purposes until they get possession of the Presidency and control a majority in both branches of Congress. They start without one member out oi the 356 in the lower House of Congress, for even Jerry Simpson, of Kansas, did not favor the Cincinnati movement, and with but one member in the Senate Mr.' Pfeffer. How lone would it take a party which does not com mand more than 3,000,000 of votes out ot I 12,000,000, even if the Allianbe endorsed it, which it does . not, to elect President, a majority of the 356 members of the 16wer House of Con gress, and a majority of the 88 Sen ators? And this is just what Mr. Pf effer's party will have to do before it can turn a wheel or accomplish anything of importance. As the idea on which the Third Party is based is to secure prompt relief to the farm- ers through subtreasury bills and other schemes, the farmers who need relief will be all dead before the Third Party will be in a position to give it to them. MINOR MENTION. Hon. Wm. C. Oates, of Alabama, denies the alleged interview with him in which he was quoted as saying that the Democratic Party must fight the Farmers ' Alliance. We didn't believe it when we read it, for although we know that Mr. Oats is a bold and aggressive man, we also know that he is a; man of sense and didn t believe that he would part with his head long enough to give utterance to such; a rash declaration. Opposing those demands of the Al liance which are deemed wrong and indefensible is one thing, and making war an the Alliance is another. To 'advise fighting the Alliance, be cause- it makes! certain demands, upon which even Alliance men differ, would be the extreme of folly, that no man of ordinary sense would be guilty of, especially when, in the South at least, on all leading issues between the Democratic and Re publican parties eight out of ten of the Alliance ?men are with the Democratic party. They may go to extremes in some-things, and be in efror, but the way to meet the error is by reason and, argument not by driving them beyond the reach of reason and argument The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette congratulates the farmers of the united states on tne encouraging outlook, in consequence of the favor able crop reports and the prospects of a good market at fair prices. The reported shorf crop of wheat in Russia will probably open a market for American vhelt and insure good prices, especially s there is not a a large surplus in this country left over from last year's crop. But when the esteemed Commercial Gazette was congratulating "the farmers of the United States." it does not seem to have included the cot- ton growers have now of the . South, who million bales on nana, lor wnicnitnere is little or no demand, with prices pointing to seven cents-less than they have been in half a century-land .'another crop coming along to supplement these surplus million bjales, and possibly run the price still lower. The C. G. should be more concise in its phra seology when; it ''congratulates" the "farmers of the United btates," for evidently the cotton planters of the South do; not come in for the con gratulations at this writing. 1 In the next' Electoral College there will be 444 electors, 159 of whom will be frpm the South. It will require 223 votes to elect Presi dent and Vice President. On the presumption-that the South will be J f U TV ' l: J-i ;l Mjiiu iui tuc wcuiotidui; cduuiuates, as usual, they must get 64 votes from other States to be elected New York, Newijersey, Connecticut; and Indiana would give 67, four more than necessary. But in addi tion to these the Democrats have - t fair prospects iq Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa and Michigan, while possibly Nevada, Colorado and Montana may break way from their Republi can moorings n the silver coinage question. In j- Michigan, by a law passed by the last Legislature, the electors will be chosen by districts, which will give the Democrats a majority of them if not all. If the Third Party should continue in the field and nominate a Presidential ticket, it would also put the result in Ohio, Kansas,"' Minnesota and Nebraska in doubts with the chances against the Republicans. The. Columbia State, of the 9th inst., reports that a Boston syndicate is negotiating for the purchase of a 3,000 acre tract of land about eleven miles irom Columbia, known as the Lexington kaolin beds, on the Con- garee creek, with a view to estab lishing a $90,000 or $100,000 plant for the manufacture of kaolin and turpentine products. The turpentine will be extracted by a new process which is thus described: "The tree is Cut down, sawed into blocks eighteen inches long and then split up. Then it is placed in a retort, and everv ingredient of the wood is ex tracted by the process, in the snape oi marketable value. The plant will cost somethine over 30.000, . and will turn out turpentine, alcohol, tar, wood vine- ear, acetic acid and charcoal, all ready- tor market, thus using every portion ot the tree. He exhibited estimates show ing the relative amounts of the above substances that could be extracted Irom one-half a cord of wood, showing twenty eallons of turpentine, one and eight- tenth gallons of alcohol, etc One-half of the charcoal is sold, and the other is used for fuel. The profits for a year! on such a plant are very handsome. STATE TOPICS. Col. F. H. Fries, President of : the; Roanoke and Southern Railroad, re-i ports that the road, which is now completed from Winston. N. C. to Martinsvilie, Va., will be completed through to Roanoke by some time in the fall. If this be so it is sooner than expected some time ago, and speaks well for the push and vim of the men who have that work m charge. The road will be extended southward making its southern con nections either at Charlotte or Mon roe. This is' a road in which Wil mington s business men are some what interested as it opens up the way to them into border counties of Virginia, still further than the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley ; road ex- T 'i tends, and there is no reason why they may not find it an inviting field to work. WHEN ABE YOTJ iGOOTG T O BUILD YOUR NEW CHURCH P COMMUNICATED. This question has often been asked me by several of the citizens of Wil mington, and I desire to give some expression concerning this matter for public benefit. On assuming the pastorate of the First (colored).f Baptist Church in April, 1890, I found the members greatly scattered, there being about 18 regular attendants, and consider able talk of building, and no money. A great many thought that all I had to do was to lead on the building, securing woikmen, etc. i lound tnat tne church was in no condition to build at the time, so the first object to be reached was a union of the members, and from the 18 or 20 possibly at the beginning the number has increased to about 115, with an occasional return of a wan derer. . " This increase in membership be ing encouraging, we have decided to call together the entire membership and have from them an expression of their interest in this matter of building, and on the 3d Sunday af ternoon in this month at 3 o clock there will be a meeting for this pur pose. Knowing the public to be much interested in this matter, we cordial - invite them to be present. If the church desires a new build ing they will show it by pledging and doing ail in their power to se cure it. God helps those who help themselves.! Respectfully, j F. H. Hill, Pastor First Colored Baptist Church, Wilmington, N. C. CURRENT COMMENT. If President Harrison would say right out that he intends to ap point a colored Circuit Judge, it would greatly encourage the 30,000 colored voters of Ohio, without whom the dauntless McKinley will be nowhere. Louisville Courier- Journal, Dem. The McKinley bill is certain ly getting things down to bed rock when it taxes church altars, but that is what this administration is doing. The Republican party is determined that the people of this; country shall not worship God at a foreign-made altar unless they pay for the privi lege. New Orleans States, Dem. The total subscriptions to the Panama Canal scheme Rwrecrat . - 6 $260,000,000 and all France is en- raged at so much money having been spent in the last ten years with nothing to show for it, whereas it should thank Heaven it didn't have a Republican Congress to spend four times that amount for it in two years. iV7"., Y. World, Dem ' The Russian Government now proposes to abolish trial by jury, and io substitute a staff of Judges ap pointed by the judicial administra tion. As ,:there has never been a case reported of the acquittal of any person on trial in Russia the new system is - not likely to make things much worse in that des potic country. Phil. Record, Dem.

Charlotte News-. Mr. P. Cline, a merchant of China Grove, made an assignment a day or two ago. Rev. Paul Barringer was appointed assignee. Dull , times and inability to collect claims are the causes of Mr. Cline's as signment. Winston Sentinel: Mr. George Hege, the oldest citizen of Salem, passed away late yesterday afternoon at the ripe old age of 91 years. The deceased had been in feeble health for several years. His wife, who survives him, is 81 years old, and still very active. Carthage Blade: Mr. J. J. Lawbon told us that he killed a water moccasin a few days ago, which measur ed about 5 feet in length, and 3 or 4 inches in diameter, that had a horn on its back about 8 inches below the head, measuring 3 inches in length. Warrenton Gazette: From what we hear and see the tobacco is not near so good as it was at this date last year. There was too much rain for the early planted and a great deal of it is button ing or blooming at twelve and fourteen leaves, and the leaves are narrow and short. Durham Sun: Mrs. Emma Scott, wife of Sidney Scott, of Holloway street, died this morning at 8 o'clock. The Durham Light Infantry is now making arragements to attend the State En campment at Wrightsville. They will leave for that place to-morrow week. They hope to go with about forty strong. Concord Standard: .A son of Mr. Robert Gourley, of No. 10, came very near being seriously crippled for life. In handing a switch to his brother while he was driving a mower, the knives struck one leg and cut it half off. Had not the machine been stopped at the time both legs would have been cutoff. Raleigh News and Observer: There are parties in Raleigh who are negotiating with some of our most prominent capitalists lor an arrange ment leading to the establishment here of a mammoth steel car plant which will. employ 2,300 hands. The negotia tions are on and reliable men are inter esting themselves in its consummation Red Springs Farmer and Scot tish Lntef: During the prevalence ot a thunder storm last Friday, lightning struck the wife ot A. u.

McLau- rin says it was an hour before his wife recovered from the shock, that the storm was passing a mile distant and the sun was shining when . the bolt came, his wile saw no flash of lightning and knew nothing of what had hap pened until consciousness was restored and she was told of it. Charlotte Chronicle: Tom John son, the negro who shot A. R. Williams on board Capt. Clarkson's train on the 4th of July, was arrested yesterday by constable J. L. Smith, near Davidson College. While at the depot, waiting to take the train for Charlotte. Mr. Smith had occasion to step round the other side of the depot to get a package, and he left his prisoner in charge of a half grown boy. He gave the boy his pistol and told him to keep guard on Johnson til he came back. As soon a he was out of sight Johnson slapped the boy over, took the pistol and made his escape into the woods. Weldon News: The peach crop will be enormous. The tobacco crop is very fine in this section. We learn that efforts are being made to es tablish an Episcopal school at Littleton, as the most desirable place for it in Eastern Carolina. The good people of that progressive town have donated ten acres of land for the school and the pro ject will be pushed to early success. -1 For the first time, under its new charter, the town of Weldon will levy a tax on personal property. The value of person al property in the town liable'to taxation according to the returns of the list taken is $94,735. The value of real estate un der the new asssessment is $280,863. Four years ago its value was $147,000, an increase of $135,768, or nearly fifty per cent. A part of this increase is owing to the extension of the corporate limits ot the town. . New Berne Journal: Mr. C. C. Bordeaux is in the city after a large force of hands to work on the Onslow railroad. There are now at work about eighty hands clearing the right-of-way and grading seven miles this side of Jacksonville. A thousand more work men are wanted to push this road on as fast as possible in this direction. r How much snuff do you suppose is sold in New Berne? We think any one without information on the matter would suppose the amount to be great ly less than it is. One merchant alone, Mr. E. B. Hackburn, ordered 11,500 pounds of one kind yesterday. It takes about $4,000 cash to pay for that much snuff. This is not, as some might sup pose, an order of several firms clubbed together, but is Mr. Hackburns own individual order. He has before this bought as high as 10,000 pounds at a time. Statesville Landmark: Mr. E. B. Webster has raised this year the big gest onion the Landmark ever saw. It was one of these low, heavy-set onions, in shape like a squash, and was about as around as the bottom of water bucket. It measured 18J inches around and weighed pounds. A correspon dent writes the Landmark that Nathan iel Wagoner and others were riding in a boat on the Yadkin river near Boon ville, Yadkin county, last Sunday week, June 28th, when the boat sank. In his struggle to save two little boys Wago ner was drowned and his body was not found until Friday last,' July 8d, when the circling of buzzards over a point about three miles below where the boat sank attracted the searchers to that spot, and there the body was found, lying partly in and partly out of the water. The drowned man leaves a wife and children. PERSONAL.
