We are glad to see th jit our suggestion have been njiproved and will be acted on. We have' seen several of thj Committee and received letters from'" others and they all concur with j ua that organization isvery much needed and suggest that a nwdug 'of the Committee and all good democrats interested in the party's succebs, be held Tuesday of the first wetk of Court. We hope the meeting will be large ly attended! and organization be begun by a thorough awakening "of the mcn'ibers of the party to a perfect knowledge of our condi tion, -ttiid infusmg in them a desire to fee all losfgrjound regained and iho jnincipks oT democracy per jujiuated, j yiu.

Many t( our ideas ibavc been" received Tll from Northern farmers and writers, where the conditions of climate are quite the reverse of .those existing in the South. If the plowing is not done in Northern States before October it cannot be done until af ter the first of May, as the land is covered with snow or bound fast with- ice. The Northern farmer 'often breaks his sod land in September, and either sows wheat or expects the freezing and thawing weather of October to pulverize and to pre pare the land to receive the annua' covering of snow, and with it a supply of ammonia,- which the Southern farmer roust buy in com mercial fertilizers or obtain by growing a green crop for manure. In the South the conditions are quite different. September is a hot month, October is frequently almost as warm. Drying winds sweep the bare fields; winter rains wash the corn and cotton lands in to gullies, and all the elements seem to conspire to rob the soil of nitrogen. How can this great loss be pre vented? Cannot the farmer, to some extent at least, cover his land with manuring, crops which will shade and protect the land from sun, wind and washing rain until he h seady to plaint the spring crop? . This covering after serving the furpose of shading the land for sev era! months, and in that Way im proving the condition of the soil, will-bs equal in value, when turns ed under, to many wagon loads of manure.

There, is nothing a farmer can do that will pay a hansomer prof it than keeping a tjand and C3rt from the first day in the year to the last day hauling pine straw, oak leaves, trash, wood mould, swamp muck, rotten log and stumps end the dirt, from around the same in his fields, and cOvv pens, hog lots and horse lots You can make two acres of wo-n out lands' good in this way cheaper than you can clear one acre mid get it ready for seed One hand, borne and cart can cover twenty five acres with! dirt besides keeping your lot all well strawed. And twenty live acres are as much if not more than one hand will grub ia one year to say nothing about cutting it down and clearing it oiT ready for grub bing, and cleaning it up after grubbing: And when we bring our old exhausted lands up in this way, you see its value .is so much capital added to our wealth, and we still have our woodlands undis turbed. And besides this reclaim ed and redeemed land is so much easier both on man and beast to cultivate, and you can cultivate so n:uh more without breaking plows, stumping toes and some times, losing your sweet temper. Now, if you have never tried this plan -of bringing up old exhausted tatids try it. You h ve no idea how much on 2 faithful baud and cart can do in reedeerainir wort) out landd. Democrat.

Amid ail the wide-spread and deep-seated demoralization that followed the civil war and the mighty upheaval of our social sys-l tern, accompanied by a revolution in our industrial afiaire; amid all that there is now to discourage us (and there is a great deal),there is one thing that gives hope, for it shows that amid it all the chivalary and manhood of the southern peo ple, though to some extent necessa rily weakened by the great demor alizing agencies brought to bear against them, have never been de3 troyedi We admit that there is much among our people, that is practiced every day to causa us deep regrets, but we need never to find a people who are perfect in thought, feeling and action. Such a peopie never have been found, never will be found. When we compare the type of manhood the standard of morality of sou th em people, with others, we feel that we have cause for sincere self congratulation In nothing is this more conspicuous than in the chiv alric devotion to woman manifested by our people- Gokhboro Head- The wisest of the northern manufacturers are rapidly coming to the conclusion that they, witli tho whole country, would be better off with a lower tariff than a high one and many Southern protec tionists are willing to concede as much If this be true, as it ia, that we can compete with the North then we most assurcly need no high tariff" to insure the devel opment of southern manufactures But there is still another reason, and a special one, why the South, looking exclusively at her own in terests, should desire a modifica tion of the tarff. It is conceded on all hands that no where on earth can the raw rn-aterials be produced so cheapJy a3 at the South, and the North is able to compete with us only by reason of greater capi tal and superior skill If, then, a modification of the tariff should, as is claimed by the protectionists, cripple the manufactures of thu North, is it not plain that thier cap ital aod skill, combined with our cheap raw material and labor, would give us the superiority over the rest of the world, and that the Northern maoutactgrers would be forced to come to the South Shtlby New Era . California is now in the midst of a most wonderful real estate cr ze The whole State is affected with the fever and speculation has run mad. Farming lands are selling at $2C0 per acre and town lots are daily changing owners for consid erations away up in the thousands. A gentleman bought a piece of property at Los Angelos two years ago for SI 1,000 and several months ago sbld it for $75,000. Now he is aimjosi on tho verge of suicide becaufeo his purchasers havo re sold, it at a proflit of Sl5,000. If the craze continues much longer at the present rate the whole State will soon be cut up into sicall town lots. Real estate agents are running excursions over from New York and Boston and speculators are pouring in on almost every train. The incidents of this remar kable real estate craz j are some times very odd. An impecunious San Franciscoan came to Los Au gelos in tho hope that something would turn up for him and made $1,700 in three weeks by getting up early in the morning, or staying up all night to secura the place in the long line of buyers at some real estate sale and selling out Lis chances. An Eastern visitor sur - i veye-d the wondrous scene, went in and made the cost of his and his family's excursion to the Pacific aadt$I5,000 besides in a few weeks. Fooled lhe llcvciiucr.
