Wiliiiin t;tit Mt-sscMcr. Washington, I). C. W-1l Kenan, Esq , Chairman Demo cratic Fxee uti e Committee, Xew Hanover Couity : Pear Sir: If you refer to the de mands made by the St. Louis Confer ence and officially reported by the delegates of the North Carolina Farmers' State Alliance as the '"St. Louis platform" I will say that my position on it was correctly stated in an editorial in the Charlotte Obser ver several weeks ago. I do not en dorse the preamble where it reflects on the leadership of the Democratic party :is to the demands on finance, land and transportation (there are only three) I improve them. They are exactly the same in substance as those of the demands passed by the National Farmers' Alliance and In dustrial Union at St. Louis in De cember, ISS'.i, and were three of the national demands when I was nomi nated and elected in 18U0. The financial question is the most import ant to our people. The land ques tion does not affect us as we have no United States lands in our State. The ownership of rsilrosids cannot aii't-e t us until an amendment to the constitution of the United States is pas.-ed granting the rights to pur chase railroads As bv tween a rail road commision with power to make freight and passenger rates, and gov ernment ownership, 1 believe the latter the best, but it is too far in the future to warrant discussion now. I will only add that sis long as the people cf the United States permit corporations to own the railroads that they should be treated justly and fairly aud no vote of mine will be given to violate si contract or im pair their property. I did not desire to express my views over my signa ture at present as each sab-Alliance will be called upon to ratify or reject each of the aforesaid demands. Fe ing chairman of the executive com mittee of the State Alliance this publication nuiy affect the votes of some members that I should have voted on their on judgemersf.

The principal characters before Judge Lave, of the Police eourr, this morning, were Pill Fox, a cow boy from Texas, and Hans Jacobs', the keeper of a combination saloon and grocery, - on Minna street, be tween Fourth and Fifth. Pill was in the dock, dressed only as good cowboys are in the habit of dressing. His slouch has was under his arm, and his long llowing hair was somewhat matted for the want of a comb. The usual revolver in his belt was absent, however, and in consequence he wore an air of dis gust, which plainly said lie was only half a man without it. He was only charged with being drunk, but Han3 Jacobs wanted him charged with assault and murder, and in order to get a warrant he had to tell the court about it. "Well, Mr. Jaeenbs, what do you want this warrant for?" asked Pros-, editing Attorney Col ton. "Veil, he vas shoot at me last night." "Who sh t at you ?v asked Mr. Col ton. "Dot man dare mit de long hair. lie va; a vi'd cowboy." "What did lie shoot at you fur ?' "Voost to make me some fun, be said." "How did it happen ?" "Veil, you sees he comes in my shtorfi and said gif him a drink. 1 say jee.i have a glass beick beer ur.d he said yes kyick.

"Did you obey ?" "I didn't have got no such shtuff in de shtorc." "Then what did you do?" "1 dohlt hi n don't shoot. I vould dry to get some, und ven I vas look in' bang ! vent his gun, und I dauht dat my nose vas shoot avay." "Di.l you run out then ?" "No; I shtarted, ha? hosnys come back mit you or I niak.s a pi hole iu you vot a dog jumps through." "Ditl he shoot again ?" "No ; I gif him visky, an' ask him vot for he-shoots me. He says dare vos a lly oat my nose, und he kilt him." "Wa3 these any one else pres ent ?" "No, sir." "Why didn't you blow a police whistle?" "1 vos goin' to, but he ssitd he vould plow teo.'' "Plow wha'?" "De top of my hett off-" "Then you did not blow?" "I should schmile not," said Mr. Jacobs with a shrug of his should ers. "Ven he drinks a pottle ot my vis key he goes cad, unel I don't see him some more tell he vas arrested in anoder saloon for drunk." "What have you to say to all this, Pill Fox, of Texas?" inquired the court. Pill arose slowly to his feet and looked as picturesque ;i3 a bandit chu f as he exclaim, d : "Shoot that thing, .lodge! Why, I'd :io more wsiste good ammunition on him than I would on a laughing jackass. I may have brushed ally off his nose if I had had my revol ver, but I flu J. myself this morning 1 a lonf way from home without uiy trusty weapon." "Put you got 0 full of vis key dat you vas robbetl in another phice," ntcrposed Mr. Jacobs. "That is false on its face, your Honor. A cowboy never ets drunk enough to lose his bio's," replied Pill with indignation. "I expect yen are risiht, Fox," said the Court. "You may so twenty four hours, and in tho means rime i win sec siooul mis game shooting Hies off the noses of Gcr- l' T fl1 It!. C man grocers.

The following are tne closing paragraphs w hSeh are classic and beautiful : Pt-eently I stood, sit night, on the narrow peninsula where twenty-, seven ye sirs ago fleet and fort pros claimed iu thunder the fame of Fort Fisher. To the eastward heaved the se a, on whose rolling biN lows the rising moon poured a flood of silvery light, while opposite, and hanging lo w above the shining river in the limitless depths of the west ern he-avens, glo ved tiie serene orb of t'ne evening planner, whose glories heightened as it neared the horrizon. Petween lay the long line of ragged mounds over which the tide of bats tie ebbed and flowed when the ex pired hopes of si brave people were forever ex tinguished.

A Sla:il.v Man. Some years ago, we sat with a committee to award a medal for the declamation at a commencement at Albemarle. In the well contested contest, Mr. G II Crowell won. Now he graduates from the University and he' niaele a speech, and here is what the State Chronicle siys : .Mr. (I 11 Crowe! I, of New Pons don, s-it-.l that greatness is a legacy left us by the fathers if we will but take it as our ideal and measure it steadfastly. The Greek and Roman idesil was perfection. It produced Plato sind Aristotle, Seneca and Marcus Aurelius. Our ideal 13 greater than theirs. It is: "Nobils ity binds to noble conduct." It is standing to our convictions of truth and duty. It is being a true man, living a pure life. Goodness is greatness. There is something higher than early ideals. Living and acting like God makes life. To lenet rate the depths of the future, and take hold on God and eternal things makes us strong and manly. This is tne true ideal. That ia the whole of man. Mr. Crowell is to be a pre acher.
