The follow- ing is li-esiaent cieveiana s letter vo Representative Wilson upon the tariff situation, which Mr. Wilson read as a part of his remarks in the House this afternoon : Executive Mansion, ) Washington, D. C, July 2, 1894. J personal. L. wIlSon : Hon, Wm OMv Dear Sir: The cetaintyr that a conference wilf be ordered between the two houses of Congress for the purpose of adjusting differences on the subject of tariff legislation makes it almost certain that you will be again called on to do hard service in the cause of tariff re form. My public life has been so close ly related to the subjict I hare so longed for its accomplishment, and I have so often promised its realization to my fellow-countrymen, as a result of- their trust and eonfidence.in the Pemocratic party, that I hope no excuse is neces sary for' my earnest appeal to you that in this crisis you strenuously insist up on parfy honesty and good faith, and a sturdy adherence to Democratic prin ciples. I believe these absolutely neces sary conditions to the continuation of Democratic existence. I cannot get rid of the feeling that this conference will present the best if not the only hope of true Democracy. Indications point to its action as the reliance of those who desire the genuine fruition of Demor cratic effort, the fulfillment of Demo cratic pledges and the redemption of Democratic promises to the people. To reconcile differences in the details com promised within the fixed and well-defined fines of principle will not be the sole task of the conference, but as it seems to me, its members will also have in charge the question whether Demo craticprinciples themselves are to be saved or abandoned. There is no excuse for mistaking or misapprehending the feeling and the teipper of the rank and file of the De mocracy. They are downcast under the assertion that their party fails in inability1 to manage the government and they are apprehensive, that efforts to bring about tariff . reform may fall; but: they are much more downcast and apprehensive in their fear that Demo cratic principles may be surrendered. In these circumstances they cannot do otherwise than to look with confidence to you aud those who with you have patriotically and sincerely championed the cause of tariff reform within Dem ocratic lines and guided by Democratic principles. This Confidence is Vastly augmented by the action under your leadership of the House of Eepresenta tives upon the bill now pending. Every true Democrat and every sincere tariff reformer knows that this bill in its present form as it will be submitted to conference falls far short of the con summation for which we have long la bored; for which we have suffered defeat without discouragement; which, in its anticipation, gave us a rallying cry in our day' of trumph, and which in its promise of accomplishment is so inter woven with pemocratic pledges and Democratic success that our abandon ment of the course or the principle sup on which it rests means party perfidy and party dishonor. One topic will be submitted to the conference which embodies Democratic principles so directly that it cannot be compromised. We have in our plat form and in every way possible declared in favor of the free importation of raw materials. We have-again and again promised that this should be accorded to our people and our manfacturers as soon as the Democratic party was in vested with the power to determine the tariff policy of the country. The party .now has that power. We are as cer tain to-day as we have ever been of the great benefits that would accrue to the country from the inauguration of this policy, and nothing has occurred to re lease us from,our obligation to secure this advantage to our people. It must be said that no tariff measure can ac cord with Democratic principles and promises, or bear a genuine Democratic badge, that does not provide for free raw materials. In the circumstances, it may well excite our wonder that Democrats are w'llhng to depart from this, the most Democratic of all tariff principles, and that the inconsistent absurdity of 6uch a proposed departure should be emphasized by the suggestion inat tne wool oi tne larmer De put on the free list and the protection of tariff taxation be placed around the iron ore and coal of corporations and capitalists How can we facet the people after in dulging in such outrageous, discrimina tions and violation of principles? It is quite apparent that this question- of free raw materials does not admit of adjustment on any middle ground, since their subjection to any rate of tar iff taxation, great or small, is alike vio lation of Democratic principles and Democratic good faith. i nope mat you will not consider it intrusive if I say something in relation to another subject which can hardly fail to oo troublesome to the conference reier to tne adjustment of tariff taxa tion on sugar. Under our party plat- lumi mw in accordance with our declared party purposes, sugar is a legiti mate and logical article of revenue tax -: i , ' . . a won. unioriunateiy, however, inci dents have accompanied certain stages oi tne legislation whicn will be submit ed to the conference, that have aroused m connection with this subject, a nat ural Democratic animosity to the meth ods and manipulations of trusts and combinations. I confess to sharing in this feeling; and yet it seems to me we ought if possible to sufficiently free Ourselves from prejudice to enable us coolly to weigh the consideration which in formulating tariff legislation ought to guiue our treatment of sugar as taxable article. While no tenderness should be entertained for trusts and while I am decidedly opposed to grant ing them, under the guise of tariff taxa tionany oppurtunity to further their peculiar methods, I suggest that we ought not to be driven away from the Democratic principle and policy which lead to the taxation of sugar, by the fear, quite likely exaggerated, that in carrying out this principle and policy we may indirectly and inordinately en courage a combination of sugar refining interests. - ;i 'J,. . V""--: '';'"; i: I know that in present conditions this is a delicate subject and I appreciate the depth and ; strengh of the feeling which its treatment has aroused. I do not believe we should do ' evil that good may come but it seems that we 6houlc not forget that our aim is the compU tion, of the tariff bill, and that in taxing sugar for proper purposes and within reasonable bounds, - whatever may be said of our action, we are in no danger of running counter to Democratic prin ciples..; With all there is at stake there must be in the treatment of thi article some ground upon which we are all willing tot stand.where conciliation may be allowed to solve the - problem, with out demanding the entire surrender of fixed and conscientious convictions. ; I ought not to prolong this letter. If what I have written is ; unwelcome, I beg you to believe in my good inten tions. In the conclusions of the con ference touching the numerous items which will be considered, the people are hot afraid that their interests will be neglected. They know that the general results as far as these are concerned will be to place home necessaries and , com forts easier within their reach and to insure better and surer compensation to those who toil. We all know that a tariff covering all the varied interests and conditions of a country as vast as ours must of a necessity be largely the result of an honorable compromise. I expect very few of us can say when our measure is perfected that all its features are entirely as we would prefer. You know how much I deprecated the in corporation into the proposed bill of the income tax feature, . In matters of this kind, however, which do not violate a fixed and recognized Democratic doc trine, we are willing to defer to the judgement of a majority of our Demo cratic brethren. I think there is a general agreement that this is party duty. This is more 'palpably apparent when wo realise that the business of our country timidly stands and watches for the result of our efforts to perfect tariff legislation, that a quick and certain return of ; prosperity waits- upon a 'wise adjustment and ithat a con fiding people still trust in our hands their prosperity and well-being. The Democracy of the land pleads most earnestly for the speedy - completion of the tariff legislation which their repre sentatives have undertaken ; but they demand not less earnestly that no stress of necessity shall tempt those they trust to the abandonment of Democratic principles. .

A Kentucky lawyer was standing on the steps of the Covington postoffice the other day, when, an old colored man came up and touching his hat asked : 'Kin you tell me is dis de place where dey sells postage stamps?'.' ! ''Yes sir. This is the place," replied the lawyer, seeing a chance of a, little quiet fun, but what do you want with postage stamps, uncle ?" 1 "To mail a letter, sah, of course." "Well then, you needn't bother about stamps. You don't have ro put any on this week." "I don't?" "No sir." "Why for not?

Also the name of the parent or guardian of such child. With such data, we will corres pond with the parents and guardians of these children, and ; in this way put them in reach of an education. Will not the good people of the State who know of a blind child or children in their vicinity send us a card with the information wanted ?

' MODERATION IN AIX THINGS. 8ttevilBTjinHmpV i I There- has' been no time " since the war when there was such personal, vitu- perauort of Democracy by Democrats as has ; been ;read and heard within the past two years. Able and faithful party men have been and are being slandered and Ubeied daily for no better reason than that they have, disappointed some body's personal hopes, that somebody is striving for the places thevhave. This campaign "ofs fly-blowing is mostly conducted by tyros in politics who do not look beyond the present moment, and is certain to bring embarrassment in the future, in one form or another. Some of the men who are being traduced are certain to be Democratic nominees, this year or hereafter, and the traducers will have either to support them or bolt the ticket. . U they do the former thev stultify themselves; if . the latter, they lose then party standing. In either case they lose whatever claims they have Hipon : popular confidence. This tra duction begins with the President of of the United States, the head of the Democratic party,.; and . runs down through Senators and Representatives to Democrats in subordinate positions. It tends to party disorganizations and as above suggested, to personal stultifica tion. If one is to carry a free lance, owing allegiance to no flag, the ad monition does not apply; nor has it any reference to legitimate criticism of the public acts oi public men these are always warranted, within the party, . if the facts warrant them; but there is a vast difference between this legitimate criticism and that which is illegitimate that which goes into the motives of men; that which is based, not upon 'public reasons but is the result of personal spite - This is a little word of warning all in side the family. T)emocrats do not need to add anything this year to their own handicap, and every time they prefer a charge which they cannot sup port against a man who is to be a Dem ocratic nominee, they not only put a club in the hands of the enemy but prepare for themselves an embarrass-1 ment which, in the future, they would "be very happy to be rid of; for not only, as above pointed out, will they have either to support or bolt the candidate, but the time is coming when the candi date, whoever he may be, will be out of the way, and his help or that of his friends will be wanted for his present traducer or some of his friends. - Let us keep peace within the party. Let us in alUhings have moderation for our guide. The Wrong: Man's Conscience Stricken! The Boston Transcript says that a few days ago, while a gentleman was buying stamps in the postoffice, sbme one took his umbrella, as he believes, by mistake, and the loser put this card in the morning -paper : "The kind friend who carried off my umbrella at the postoffice yesterday morning will bear in mind 'that the gates Of Heaven are only 24 inches wide. My umbrella measures 28. ,A.t the other place he won't need it. Didn't Dives pray for just one drop of water? He had better return it to 208 Chamber of Commerce, and no questions will be asked." .

New York World. - William Waldorf Astor now owns a thousand or more houses in this city. 4The navy of the United States is main tained to protect this city and Mr. As ter's thousand houses from bombard ment. There are at least one thousand reasons why Mr. Astor should contrib ute more to the support of the General Government than the ordinary pros perous man with one house. But Mr. Astor lives in England spends three or four millions a year there. He does not even contribute to the income of this government by stay ing here, importing his coats from London or smoking American cigars. He contributes less to keep up the navy that protects his thousand houses, to uphold laws which enable him to own a thousand houses, than the poor est of the thousand families that pay his rents, Is it "socialism" or justice to ask that Mr. Astor contribute something to the support of the government of the United States ? . A Rabit Drive in Texas. In the Panhandle of Texas the rab- bits are very nearly as much of a nui sance as they are in Australia, and the problem of how to exterminate them is a serious one. , Unlike the prairie dog, which moves when civilization reaches his habitation, the jack rabbit will re main very near the settlements and run the chances of being killed. Parties are formed to drive these rabbits. A triangle, with the sides about a quarter of a mile long and the base about an equal distance across, is formed with closely constructed wire fences or Wire screening. ; ' ' - . - '' The hunters seperate very much as in a fox hunt and, going in a circle, meet a short distance below the base of the triange, beating the grass as they go. then, closing in, they drive the rabbits in the triangle, and the animals suspect no danger until they are huddled to gether at the point. They try to jump the fence, and.failingin that,make arush to retreat." ; The hunters are armed with stout clubs and kill them by the ; hun dred...; It 13 not uncommon for two or three thousand to be ' killed in a single drive. The sport, is an exciting one, as the animals are exceedingly quick in their, movements and will execute some very artful dodges to try to pass the hunters. . - 7 - ' '., .-.. ; Wool "I had our friend, the musi cal critic with me at Hobokenhurst two or three days last week."

Charlotte News. . . - -a On what is known as the "Al Jack Bost place," in Cabarrus county,' 'near the. - banks of Anderson's creek, just above where it pours into Rocky River. stands an old rock chimney and other evidences of a home which pace was but is not now. It was the home, in 1776, of John Cruthere, known to his friends as "Jocky'I Cruthera. There was one incident connected with this. life there which indicates the bitter hatred that existed between Whii and Tory in those.troublous and perilousl uays. l et, the incident has never been recorded by any historian, although if its threads were worked out fully it might develop, something interesting. Cruthers was a strong Tory and he made it known everywhere he went. tie was very wealthy, but would not hear his neighbors argument in favor of freedom. He was harmless but. offen sive in many of his expressions. .His brothers-in-law, the three Shelbys, were very strong Whigs, and had often re monstrated with. Uruthers in regard to the matter, But he listened not. The Shelbys were cavalrymen, but dropped but of line sometimes long enough to do some devilment. Une dampr foggy nignt in the winter the . three Shelby brothers rode up to Cruthers' house and went m. -They took his shirt off and whipped him unmercifully. Not con tent with the severe punishment, thev decided to kill him outright, and. stood there and hacked him with their swords until he fell to the floor in a dead faint The Shelbys thought him dead and left the Iplace. In a short time after they had left Samuel White, who lived up the Creek four miles, arrived at Cruthers' house, having been attracted thither bv the terrible screams of the Tory. Every thing possible was done for Cruthers and he revived and afterward crot entirely well though he was full of frightful scars from head to foot. The truth of the matter cannot be doubted, because it is known that Cruthers did live there, and samuel White who lived to an advanced age, left a statement of the fact. The question is, were the Shelbys concerned in this any relation of the Shelby Of King's Mountain fame? Or was the King's Mountain Shelby one of the brothers who assaulted Cruthers ? Butler Wants Another Party. Columbia, S, C., July 5. President Marion Butler, of .the .National Farm era' Alliance, in talking today about the Aihance m .the coming national cam paign, said the producers of the country must obtain influence in national affairs and they could not get it through , either of the existing national- parties. Con tmuing, said : .; "This condition is soon going to force a new alignment of par ties and it seems to me that all patriotic people ought to do all they can to see it come about as soon as possible. This result will have to come about by the solid west and south and all whose in terests are common with them, uniting and nominating and electing the ad ministrative officers of the government. "What 1 would like to see come about is for a national convention to be called representing the interests I have named and made up from Democrats from the south and by that I mean Democrats with due reference to The News and Courier, and the people's party from the west and from the north who want to 10m, -nominating a presi dential candidate and electing him. The people's party out west is nothing more than a party of converted demo crats, but who, on account of their pre judice to that name, will not admit it, but they are as good Democrats as the Jeff ersonian Democrats of the south . "The real Democrats of the south and the populists of the west have the same principles, while the so-called Demo crats of the western states are nothing more than goldbug Democrats and have done anything to elect a democratic president. These western populists or Jeffersonian Democrats will not go into a Democratic" convention with that name, but if a convention with the American party or the Jeffer sonion Democracy were called they would combine with the Democrats of the south to nominate and elect a pre sident. I would like to see this combi nation effect in time for the campaign of 1896, but if it is not done by that time, it is simply a few years before it will be done." , '. Abide in the Ship !

Samuel Lane Loomis deals with that troublesome problem of the times, the tramp, in a recent issue of the Chautauquan.' The saloon and foolish private chanty he considers the , chief causes of this miserable vatrabondae'e. He says": The tramp should not be suf fered to pursue his way. His mode of me is pernicious to the state, to n.H classes of inhabitants, and . most of all to himself, He ought to be surpressed. Our great mistake, dealing with him hereto has been, that we have usually classed him with unfortunates, whereas he should have been classed and dealt with as a criminal : foe this able-bodied idler living on the toil of honest men is reaUy.no other than, a thief. . It ip nature's law that if a man will not work neither shall he eat ; but we have step ped in, interfered with nature's penalty. and fed this arrant loafer. As private citizens ".we have fed him at our back door, as members of the state we have paid to have him lodged and fed in our public institutions. Nature enacts that if a man be profligate he must suffer therefore disease and death ; but we pick up this wTetehed , rake from the midst of his diseases and nurse him back to health at the expense of the up right and sober and then we send turn put to repeat his folly. " Nature's laws may seem stern but she is more merci ful than we, who, through our , inter ference with her justr penalties, encourage idleness, foster profligacy and increase the misery of the world. God does not forgive men until they have repented. Vagrancy might be sup pressed if we 'would set earnestly about it. In some parts of the country it is already suppressed. It is said that there are many towns scattered, over the land, but esyecially in the south, where a tramp dare, not show his face, . for if he should the citizens would drive him out with . clubs and . switches. He has a name of this sort. "Timber lessons," he calls them, and he studi ously avoids those regions where- they are included in the curriculum. The thing that the tramp most hates to do is the thing that the tramp should be resolutely compelled to do that is to work. No able-bodied man should be suffered to live wouthout engaging in useful labor. It Strikes the People in the End. -Springfield Republican. The fury of the mob at Chicago seems to be directed by the idea that all dam age inflicted upon railroad property is to- be a total loss to the roads. But the in tention! of the railroad companies, already avowed, to recover from Cook county whatever losses are suffered from the hands of the rioters, puts another face on the situation. That the rail roads can so recover is a well-settled principle of law. The mob at Pittsburg in 1877 destroyed from $8,000,000 to $10,000,000 of railroad property, but the roads did not loose it all. They recov cred a laree part of the loss from the county and State, and both county and State to-day are bearing the burden of increased taxation created by that out break of rioters against the roads. It will be the same story for Chicago. The roads will sue and will recover damages for losses due to the failure of the au thorities to yphold the law and protect property; and a large part of every dol lar's worth of property now being de stroyed will be brought back upon the people of Cook county "and Illinois, to be paid out of the proceeds oi their m- ture labor. The mob may think it is hitting the "plutocrats," and their sym pathizers may think so. But it is in fact levying a blow at the pockets of the masses of the people. They must face higher taxes, higher rents, higher cost of living generally, as a consequence, and they may be able to see wherein an the people are vitally concerned in all disorder and all outbreaks against prop erty rights by whomsoever posessed.

It has been the leading subject of professional research and study la all ages. .. ally known that tne seat of life is loca ted in the up per part of the spinal cord, near the base of thebraln, and so sensi tive is this portion of tho nervous sys tem that even the prick of a neealo will cause instant death. . Tni io,vrirtpihnvA demonstrated that all the organs of the body are under tho con trol of the nerve centers, located In or near the base of the brain, and that when these are deranged the organs which they supply with nerve fluid are also deranged. When it Is re membered that a serious Injury to the spinal cord will cause paralysis of the body below the injured point, Decause me atrvo wrc. prevented by the injury from reaching tho paralyzed portion. It will be understood how , the derangement of the nerve centers will cause the derangement of the various organs which they supply with nerve force. . Two-thirds of chronic diseases are due to the Imperfect action of the nerve centers at the base of tho brain, not from a derange ment primarily originating In the organ It self. -The great mistake of physicrans In treating these diseases Is that they treat the organ rather than the nerve centers which are theeause of the trouble. . M 7. Dr. Fraukxtn Milks, the celebrated spe cia!Ut.,has profoundly studied this subject fo over 20 years, and has made many important discoveries ia connection with it, chief among them being the facts contained in the above statement, and that the ordinary methods of treatment art wrong. All headache, dizzi ness, dullness, contusion, iireo " mania, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, ot Vitus dance, etc.. are nervous diseases na matter how caused. The wonderf pisuccess ot Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine Is due to the fact that it Is based on the foregoing principle.
