SUPPOSED SPEECH OF COL.
j DCCKERT, j I '
'bllow Citizens: I am a North
Carolinian, bred and , born on Jthe
Pee Dee, but as my distinguished
friend and brother Radical, Judge
Russell, says, I am a Southern man
with Northern principles. 1 1 believe
inthe North. The Northern peojrte
are smarter, cuter folks than jthe
Southern aristocrats, whom 1 hate,
are, or the poor white trash eitier
fr whom I have no great fondness,
as shown in my votes. I am prlud
of the North. They managed to
make the Southern slave owners toil
for them before the war. Tiey
Knew now to do it. They
went
to; manufacturing everything
South ' needed and they
them getting the products
the
Sold
of
the j farm in payment. They
were first opposed to a Tariff. YiW
ster, the great New England Whig
leader, was first anti-Tariff. But he
was Bmart. He saw the true waV to
make New England rich was to have
a law enacted for its especial benefit.
This law was called a Protective
Tariff. It levied a bountv on! tha
Southern planters and tax-payer for
ine oenent and enrichment of
New England manufacturers
the
It
was a law that was sure to eive con
trol of the country m the end to jthe
Plutocrats. All that was neoesaarv

the North was to start the-Tanff'land

oooiea sucn a eooeme, cunningly ae-
vised and bo exquisitely dovetailed
I and jointed. It has panned out just
I as they supposed and planned.! The
i indirect tax has done the work most
efficiently. The South for J thirty
years has been bound hand and foot.
The slavery is complete. ' Nabobs
and Plutocrats and Monopoly are all
on top. While Carnegie s workmen
half starve he draws his $5,000 a day.
The earnings of the whole people
find their way into the pockets of the
sharp, intellectual, calculating, smart
Northern capitalist. I like it.
bellow citizens, another reason
why I am a man with Northern prin
ciples, and which should commend
mo in a very especial manner to
your kind consideration and warm
support, is, that the North, by the
aid of Europe and Afrioa, was able
to whip the South. . This was right
eously done, and in accord with the
eternal fitness of things. The war
freed my good friend. Judge Bus-
selrs "thieves" and "savages ' as it
ought to have done, and. it is an
other feather in the Northern cap.
They started put, they said, not to
free the negro, but they did it, and
I am so glad that I have been one
of the "nigger party" evei since.
and I never fail to vote for one
against a white man every ohance
I get. .
Fellow-citizens, I am not known in
the Pee Dee country as a man of em
inent piety. I -cannot say that my
calling and election is sure either for
the Governor's Chair or the mansions
above, but in sentiment, education
and sympathy I am a Baptist, and
my honored father was a prominent
member of . that respected body of
Christians. For this reason I think
all of that persuasion and order ought
to vote for me for a political office.
It would be very agreeable to my
feeliDgs and would show thatr my
predictions are appreciated and my
piety properly estimated. This is
ODe of my best campaign cards and I
hope I shall not play it fn vain. This
mixing of the language of the tiger's
den with the sanctities of religion is
not exactly the1 thing, but much will
be forgiven because these are cam
paign times, j I - I I :
I come nowj my countrymen, to a
very important point I am a farmer.
I amnot one of those "blarsted" law
yers for whom I have such an unmiti
gated contempt unless he J wears a
dark skin and a woolly head. I am
a farmer. My life has been devoted
to cultivating the land--"in the
shade." I have never "been able to
make two blades grow where only
one flourished, but I have eung the
song of the ploughman but hare
never done much ploughingl I have
held that j
"He wbo by the plough would thrive
uimseir must either hold or drive."
I have done the driving Now I
am clearly of the opinion I that the
country will not thrive j unless a
farmer is Governor. I believe that
inasmuch as the farmers are the true
basis of prosperity that their interests
should be especially protected. Hence
I am in favor of two things 'above all
oiners. 1 favor the election of a
farmer as Governor and I am in favor
of protecting the farmer. I
As to the first, I being a farmer have
a right to call upon the farmers for
support. I especially call UDOn the
Farmers' Alliance to rally to my
standard. If Mr. AlATnrfr hA
UWVfc
been the Democratic nominee instead
of Judge Fowle, I should not have
opposed him. Younow j my life,
how unselfish it has blen, how con
sistent and beautiful, and you know
I am incapable of making a statement
like this unless I mean all I sav. I
could never j think of opposine a
farmer for anything, and bo I shall
vote for farmer Sanderlin, Democrat
as he is for State Auditor. The
Farmers Alliance can trust me in
this sympathy and partiality ex
pressed for Alexander, as jit is so
much like me and my publio record.
The other point is to protect the
farmer. It is true that the War
Tariff has not made him thrive as was
expected. The .farmers have been

had been an average of $60 the cure
would have been complete. So sat

Eqaal to Jntm Badnc
As heretofore announced, a bale of
new cotton covered ; with pine-fibre
bagging manufactured by the Acme
ALanuiaocuring company, was re
ceived here some days since. - The
cotton was raised by Mr." D.'P.: Mc
Kinnon and was ginned and packed
by Mr. M.' M. McKinnon, both of
Richmond county.! Naturally, in con
sequence of the determined efforts of
the planters to find 'some means of
circumventing the "Bagging Trust,"
this bale of cotton attracted a great
deal of attention. It was soon de
cided that the pine-fibre bagging
would not stain! the cotton and
that it was less inflammable than jute.
But the most trying ordeal, that of
testing its ability to withstand the
terrible squeeze of the oompresjs, had

WrxMiNOTON, N. C, Sept. 5, 1888J
This is to certify, that a bale of
cotton covered with pine straw bae
ging, manufactured-by the "Acme
Manufacturing Co.," of this city, was
this day compressed by this Com
pany and stood the test equally as
well as jute, and we are unable to see
any difference between the merits of
enner Dagging, Jute or fibre.

niB wouia seem to settle every
point in favor of the pine-straw bag
ging as a substitute for jute except
the cost, which, of course, must be
made sufficiently low to enable it to
compete with the latter.
The Acme Company, with the ex
ception of some sample lots, will not
place their bagging npon the market
this season. They have received
many orders, to be filled within thir
ty and sixty days, but they are not
prepared now to supply a large de
mand; and, moreover. Mr. William
Latimer, the public-spirited President
of the Company, thinks it would re-
suit in loss both to the farmers and
the business men of Wilmington if
the farmers should hold their cotton
until their orders for bagging could
be filled. In the meantime, the Acme
company will continue the experi
ments now in progress with a cheap
er fibre Jthan that heretofore used,
and ir their expectations in this di
rection are realized, as they confi
dently believe, the pine-fibre will be
on tne market next season as a for
midable rival of the jute bagging.
The plant of the company will be en
larged, and they will be prepared
to supply the planters with that
which they are now so earnestly seek
ing, a formidable weapon for war
fare on the "Trust."
lhe following extract from the
Charleston News and Courier, will be
read with interest in connection with
the foregoing :

as to its merits, for the reason that

which must first undergo a practical

tea tnat it would not stain the cot

straw had been expressed in the man-

Drowned off masonboro Beach.
Wm. Farrow, -a fisherman, aged
about nineteen years, and son of
Jesse Farrow, deceased, was drowned
last Monday morning about a mile
and a half from the beach at Mason
boro. He. was in company with John
Farrow and Linn McKinnev in a
whale-boat, fishing, when the boat
was capsized by a squall. The sea
was rough and Mr. McKin
ney and John Farrow, who
were expert swimmers, advised
William Farrow to remain with the
boat, while they would swim ashore
and get another boat and return and
take him off. The tide was making
in and there was no danger of the
boat and young Farrow being carried
out to sea. The two men swam to the
shore, which they reached with con
siderable difficulty, and on landing
found that William Farrow had also
made the venture and was battlins-
with the waves. They watched him
with breathless anxiety until he dis
appeared from sight.
During the afternoon the boat was

Charles M. Stedman took the stand

bolts at Republican venality and mis
rule, until his hearers stood spell
bound. For an hour or more this
vast audience of 1,500 souls were
charmed by his eloquence, and won
dered that any man could be such a
uompiete master or tne issues of the
day.In a burst of genuine eloquence he
paid a tribute to Daniel G. Fowle that
any should be proud of, and in that
vast concourse every man with one
acclaim pronounced Chas. M. Sted

does not go much for platitudes and

a magnificent speech his friends are

Jacksonville. Sept. 5. It was under
stood with Surgeon-General Hamilton at
yesterday's conference, that the Govern
ment will pay fori certain sanitary work,
but not ror nurses, provisions and physi
cians for the sick who are unable to pay
these charges themselves; and for this and
for the genejal relief of the thousands now
out of employment, and who cannot be
accommodated in adequate camps of
refuge, it was decided this morning by the
executive committee of the Citizens' Asso
ciation, in conference with the Board of
Health and the acting Mayor, to issue the
following appeal: 1
'To our friends and fellow citizens of
the United States: We, the authorized
representatives of the citizens of Jackson
ville, recognizing the fact that the epi
demic has now I reached such a stage
that our own: funds are insuffi
cient either to cope with the many cases
of absolute necessity, for the engagement of
nurses or for numerous other demands
upon us; and whereas, owing to the absence
of all business many of the most liberal
citizens are unable to furnish further
funds, we now think we are Justified in ac
cepting the many willing offers received
from you. We, therefore, wish our fellow
citizens of the United States to know that
we will gratefully receive the aid they have
offered, and that any contributions will be
used for the benefit of those in need, and
where they will effect the greatest good.!
We request that any such contributions
may be forwarded to James M. linmuii i
President ot the First National Bank and
Chairman of our Finance Commlttiw. i

Baltimokb, September 2. At 4-28 this
morning fire broke out in the toy ware
house of Prior, Hilgenberg & Co., 107
South Sharp street. . Before the firemen
could get to work an explosion of fire
works wrecked the building and caused the
flames to spread with alarming rapidity to
tne arug nouse or J. H. Wmkelman & Co
on the south, and the hat house of M. S.
iievy cs jo on tne north.
' Scarcely had the firemen entered the edi
flee occupied by the drug house when the
inside of the building seemed to suddenly
drop in. A terriflo explosion followed, and
the immense building collapsed. The en
tire fire department had by this time
reached the scene, and as the attention of
the men waa concentrated on the building
uader which their comrades were burled, the
names nau a cnance to spread, and spread
they did with frightful rapidity. In an in
creaibiy short space of time the entire
block, ) running from Lombard to Pratt
street, was a seething mass of flame.
At the drug house the firemen worked
bravely. Holes were cut through the pave
ment, ana every effort made to reach the
imprisoned men, but they were buried
under a great mass of brick and iron, and
the fierce flames were roaring around the
;8pot. - (Awful groans came from the pile.
Which served to make the working firemen
put forth superhuman efforts, and after
more than an hour's work it became evi
dent that some of the men were alive, and
.that they were being roasted to death.
! John Kelley, of truck No. 2, managed to
crawl out from the rubbish, and of the men
, who entered the building he was the only
one to escape with his life. He was horri
bly cut and bruised, but his injuries are not
serious. i
The. names of the men known to have
been buried in the ruins are: George
Bowers. Thomas Wagner, John A. Combs
and Perry Ryan, of No. 2 Hook and Lad
der Company; and Harry Walker, George
Kenns and Hiram McAfee, of No. 7 En
gine Company. It is certain that these men
have lost their lives, and it may he that
others were with them when the crash
came.
! The firms that were completely burned
out are: Wylis, Bruster & Co., wholesale
shoe dealers: J.! H. Winkleman & Co.,
drugs j Tabb Brothers & Dominick, hard
ware; IPrior & Co., toys; M. 8. Levy &
