Krum our Ki'nular Correspondent. "Washington. D. C. Deo. 2. ISitt. The new tariff bill is the principal topic of conversation amonr Con gressmen, now quite plentiful in Washington and becoming' more so j upon the arrival of every train. There is much less '"kicking"' among S Democrats than the members of the committee expected, and verv much less than existed among; Republicans "ftor tho publication of the McKinley bill. The fact is generally recognized by Democrats that the Wilson bill is one that will in the end be gener ally beneficial to the entire country, although like most great reforms it will necessarily carry temporary hardships to some individuals, and that is really where the great strength of the bill lies: it is a tariff bill for the many, not for the few. The Democrats who framed it are true believers in the doctrine of the greatest g'ood to the greatest num ber. The Republicans who in dis paragement of the bill said it was built upon the lines of the Walker tariff of 184'!. could hardly have given the bill greater praise, as the Walker tariff was one of the best the country ever had. and the people of all c lasses were never more prosper ous than while it was in existence. President Cleveland lias congratu lated the Democrats of the Ways and Means committee upon the states manlike manner in which they pre pared the tariff bill, in several in stances members voting to put arti cles on the free list, such as iron ore, coal and silver lead ore. that their constituents would have preferred having kept on the dutiable list, and in his message to Congress he will officially commend their wrrrk and urge that the bill be speedily passed. The Democrats of the Ways and Means committee are now at work upon the internal revenue bill which is to furnish the revenue that will be lost by reforming; the tariff. It is estimated that this loss will be somewhere between .o.Hiill.OUO and j.j0.ooo.ooo a year of the commit tt The Democrats j have but one i thought in preparing this bill, and that is. to impose the taxes in such a manner that they will bear the light est upon those who have to work for their living, and as they are all men of wide experience and great ability they will doubtless report a satisfac tory bill. The peremptory removal of Mr. George D. Johnson, of Louisiana. the only Democratic member of the Civil Service Commission, by President Cleveland was surprising and has I been thf basis ((f no end of gossio. No official reason has been given for the removal and it is not at all pro bable that any will be given out, but it comes from good authority that the cause of Mr. Johnson's re moval was not discreditable to him. as a man or as a Democrat. He will be succeeded by Prof. J. R. Proctor, of Kentucky, and Commissioner Ly man whose removal has been, I am told, fully determined upon, by a Democrat. There is ample cause for Lyman's removal, in the rejiort of a Congressional committee' to Presi dent Harrison, and lie probably owes his retention in office this Ion as many other Republicans do, to the fact that President Cleveland has been constantly overwhelmed with !m"' iuilK,,'tant tlutil's 1,iau the se - : lection of successors to minor of:i-! cials. But unle all signs are mis-1 leading, the most of the Republicans will go before the" flowers bloom again.

It looks like the times are getting better. I don't know that legislation at Washington has had anything; to do with it. In fact I believe the pan ic would have passed away just as soon without the repeal as with it, considering that it took three months to do it. The laws of trade are more powerful than the laws of Congress. The panic came just like comets come, and it will go just like the comet goes. Like the comet, it came unexpected, but it takes longer for it to disappear, for confidence is a plant of slow growth. So far as trade is concerned, we see no difference between now and a year ago. The stores are thronged with customers, especially from the country. Cotton does not bring a good price, but there is lots of it, and the kind-hearted farmer will spend some of the proceeds on his wife and children. Hats and cloaks and Sunday shoes must be had. Cot ton keeps on rolling in and the last little boll has opened. The late fall and beautiful weather has added not less than 20 per cent to the crop in north Georgia, and almost every farmer is selling some and keeping some back for a higher price. It may go to S cents next spring, but I be lieve that the time has passed when cotton will bring more than S cents. Its average will probably be 7$ cents, for there will be no more short crops. The yearly increase of acreage in Texas will make up for all disasters elsewhere. There is still a world of unsettled land out there and it is being- settled by immigration. They can make cotton at cents a pound and they will keep on making it. The production will exceed the con sumption the supply will exceed the demand, and of course the price will be low. IJurning gin houses or passing Alliance resolutions will not have the slightest effect. The laws of supply and demand are inexora ble and nobody but fools and dema gogues will ever preach anything else to the people. I ntnember when cotton sold for ." and (J cents a pound every year and was hauled 200 miles in wagons to market, and the people didn't complain as much as they do now. I don't believe much of those charges against white caps burning ' (r;..l..i,c . tt..,t ' placi now-a-davs is laid to incendia- ries. when, the truth is. most of them are from carelessness or natur al causes. Of course, there are some lawless vagabonds tramping over the country, and it does seem like there are more this fall than usual. Some times they burn stables and barns, so as to rob the dwelling- while the family are at the fire. But the tramps don't go about in droves like they do up North up there it is a very rc- spec-table profession. They map out their routes, and start without scrip or purse. They know who keeps dogs and who don't who will let them sleep in the barn and give them something to eat and who won't. They know the charitable widows, and never slight them. I didn't know how they could travel over a thickly settled country until I was told about a rich, kind-hearted old j widow who made it a specialty to feed them for the Lord's sake. When they called, she gave them welcome land a lunch and a cup of coffee and bade them God-speed. She always i ,.r th,. ctn,.n fv. the tninms. One day when they had eaten all her ready supplies, another one came along and she had nothing left but a piece of bread. As she gave it to him she repeated her cus tomary benediction, ':Not for my sake, nor for rour sake, but for Christ's sake, I give you this bread.'' The tramp smiled and said: "Not for your sake, nor for my sake, but for Christ's sake, put some butter on it." She did so. and he tramped on. A widow who lives not far away from us killed a tat slioat the other day and concluded to leave it out in the back piazza to cool off during the night. But she eonsulte-d old Jack, jthedark - ey, about whether it would be safe to leave it out there. 4iI don't know, mam it's powerftrHmsartin dar' some strange tramps gwine around. Eber since dose, dimmer craticks got de country everything are gwine wrong dat's what dey tells mo." This reminds me of a speech Alex. Stephens made away back in the '40's, when the strife was very bitter, and he charged the Dem ocrats with being responsible for the short crop and the yellow fever in Savannah, and lots of fools believed it. I don't know how it is in an all cotton region, but in north Georgia and Tennessee and Kentucky I don't see any signs of distress, especially j outside of the towns. The country j is m a,rCHXi healthy condition. Right here in Bartow where corn and meat used to come by the carload, there is no corn and but little meat coming now. The count' is full of corn and it brings 53 cents in this market. Country cured bacon is cpaite com ine)n. Chickens, eggs and potatoes GOLDSBOllO, N. C, THURSDAY, DECEMBER are plentiful. Everything the farm er has to sell brings a fair price ex cept wheat. The big crops in the West and low rates of freight have brought wheat down. The silver question had nothing no do with it, but thousands of prejudiced people will charge it to the Democratic ad ministration. This reminds me of what Carlyle, the great historian, said about his people: ''England has a population of :JO,000,00() mostly fools."' I don't say that about our people, but it does seem like the fools and knaves together raise a power ful commotion. If an intelligent stranger should come over here from Europe and read our papers on both sides of party questions he would be amazed and bewildered, and finalty would set us down with Carlyle's crowd. All this crimination and recrimina tion is a sad commentary upon jxnt ical fairness and integrity, but it is no new thing and will never cease, I reckon. It was just as bad in the days of Washington and Jefferson as it is now. The government has got used to it. It has survived the shock of it and the scandal of it for a cen tury, and so we need not fear. The wheels will roll on. Generations will come and go just like they have done. The good will have to endure and suffer for the bad. but they stand on a sure foundation and will always, triumph in the long run. "Truth crushed to earth will rise again." lit A hp.

Yesterday the latter at tempted to play the Jesse James act, and there came very near Ik ing sev eral lives lost therefor.

Hoyle walked in. pistol in hand, and nourishing it in the air, asked if they knew anything about Jesse James. He told them he (Hoyle) was a robber and desperado. , and was going to kill them. He knocked old man Suinmey down, ; then knocked his wife clown twice. j Craig Suinmey, the son. aged alxnit IS years, got up to go to his moth- er's assistance, when Hoyle covered him with the nistol and threatened 1,1 shoot if he interfered.

Last Week in Trade Circles. Sjiocial Corres'Kindonce. New York, Dec. 4, IS9?,. Business during the last week has as a rule been very quiet. The re currence of a general holiday has in terrupted trade. To some extent a feeling of hesitancy has been influ enced by the publication of the Wil son Tariff bill and the nearness of the time for the reassembling of Con gress. Business men will naturally avail themselves of the opportunity which has been afforded them to ad just their affairs so that they may secure the best results from the proposed changes in legislation. The operations of merchants and manu facturers have been so greatly cur tailed, as a result of the recent finan cial disturbances, that the process of readjustment to new conditions will involve less derangement of busi ness and industry than under other circumstances. Merchandise stocks all over the country have been reduced to mini mum proportions, and values in many lines have readied the limit of de preciation. Recover- from this low level of production and distribution should be more rapid now that busi ness men have been made familiar with the facts and figures concerning proposed legislation, and are no long er handicapped bv uncertainty or the more hurtful effects of blind ap prehension. The failures during the last week throughout the United States and Canada aggregated 32i, a decrease of !5 from the total of the preceding week. The movement of cotton from the South has continued liberal, and de mand for export and for home con sumption has been less than active. Prices have declined 1-1( of a cent in this country and the equivalent of I of a cent in Liverpool. In the cot ton goods trade there has been mod erately increased activity, and some revision of prices both to a higher and a lower basis. An advance of i j of a cent has been realized on print I cloths, and on similar qualities of : staple cottons, while prices of wide i sheetings have been slightly reduced: j and the tendency has been downward j on some lines of bleached goods in whkh tV aV had not Iwiously equaled the reduction in competing makes. Wheat ju ices have advanced to I of a cent per bushed. The change is unimportant except as an indication of a less bearish sentiment in the market, whic h has been so long and so steadily tending in an opposite direc tion. There has been no im provement in the foreign demand: but interior receipts have fallen off, and there are indications that the maximum accumulation of visible stocks will be reached at an earlier date than was the case during' the previous crop year, when wheat sup- ; .)lios comilllu.d t, o pile up at commer- 1 - i . o - , .1 cud centres until well into the new i year. Sten-ks are now larger than ! ever before at the corresponding pe riod; but the weekly additions are devreasing. and are likely soon to cease altogether. Exports of wheat, including flour, so far during this crop year have aggregated 83.72G,- .)9 bushels, as against 74.319,411 bushels a year ago. Current weekly totals compare un favorably with those of last season; but notwithstanding the recent de cline, the shipments from this crop have thus far been 11,000,000 bush els larger than from the crop of 1S92. On the basis of a crop yield of 440, OOO.Ono bushels the Cincinnati Price Current estimates that the invisible supplies of wheat in this country are 110.000.000 bushels less than they were a year agei. This decrease, if accurately estimated, will have an important bearing' upon the future of prices, although its effects may not be sensibly felt until the visible accumulation shall have begun to run down. Hard freezing weather in the West, after recent rains, has increased apprehension concerning the fall-sown grain, the growth of which had been previously retarded by drought. Corn prices have declined about as much as those of wheat have advanc ed. The interior movement has in creased, and farmers have shown mortfdisposition te sell. There has been a fair impair- for corn for ex peirt; but advantages in freight rates have turned most of the business to Southern iorts. There is evidence of rate cutting in the fact that West ern shippers arc paying ." to t cents per bushel nore for corn at Missis sippi River points than they could afford to pa' on the basis of seaboard quotations if full schedule rail freight rates should be added to the price Values of provisions show but slight changes.
