So far the extraordinary session of Congress has been plain sailing for the well-organized Democratic maj ority in the House of Representatives, but, in the view of a strong and heal thy minority, there are breakers ahead By the free list bill, approved by the Democratic caucus and favorably re ported by the new committee on ways and means, the rapid pace of legislative progress is expected to receive a sud den check.

A1TA6KTARIFF MONDAY Democratic House to Begin Its Work of Revision The first attack of the Democratic Houme of Representatives upon the schedules of the Payne-Aldrich tariff law began Monday. With the Canadian reciprocity bill disposed of as far as the House is concerned, the lines of battle are being drawn over the bill introduced by Chairman Underwood of the ways and means committee and approved by the Democratic caucus, placing on the free list many manu factured articles calculated to be of benefit to the farmers of the country. That the bill will pass the House is unquestioned, but there will be a turbulent and prolonged debate and the division of the final vot« will be far different from the vote on the reciprocity bill Republican leaders declare that at least three-fourths of the sixty-seven Republicans who voted with the Demo cratic majority for the reciprocity bill will be found this time standing valian tly by the minority and the Republican protective poUcy^^ Land Sale.

Now is the time the farcers of the state are preparing for the harvest time which means the money they shall realize and upOn which thei'* living depends. But what i^iali it be? To no inconsiderable measure it depeads upon what kind of ^eeds are sown. Often absolute failurea are caused by planting poor seed that will not grow or, still worse, seed that is badly adulterated with serious weeds, which entirely ruin the land for certain afi^cultural pur poses, often upon which the farmer most depends. That there is a gfreat difference in the farm seeds sold in the state is forcibly shown by the difference in the resalts of the analyses made, at the Seed Testine Laboratory of the Depart ment of Agriculture, cooperating with the United States Department. For example, the results of the 125 tests of Red Clover seed made this spring by the Seed Laboratory ranged all the way from 50 per cent to 99.6 per cent Pure Seed and from 20 per cent to 97 per cent Germination, ^me contained no weed seeds a^t all, while others con tained more than 90,000 to the pound. Some samples contained more than 50 per cent of Dodder or Love vine, which is the worst of all pests that occur in Clovers and Alfalfa. This great dif ference in the quality of seed is not only true in case of Red Clover but of all the farm seeds. Not only the loss of money paid for the seeds, which is really a small item, but the failure to obtain crops can be prevented by knowing the value of the seed which is planted. The Depart ment will make tests of all agricultural and vegetable seeds for any farmer in the state free of charge and reports will be sent to him promptly. In case the seed does not come up to the standard of good seed the lot may be returned to the dealer from whom it was purchased and the money refunded or a food quality of seed given in ex change which ever the purchaser deairea. ^n submitting samples to be tested, for the smaller seeds, such as Red Clover and the grasses, one half of a teacup will be sufficent; for the larger seeds, such as the cereals, more should be sent. Address all samples to the Seed Testing Laboratory, Department of Agriculture, Raleigh, N. C., with the following information: retail price of seed and name and address of dealer from whom it was purchased. HURT BY A TRAIN. Joseph Cates Loses a Limb While Catching at One Joseph Categ, a Hillsboro citizen, lost his left foot Sunday afternoon in an effort to catch the westbound train as it passed West Durham.

According to Captain Wood it de scribes in detail the dynamiting of buildings, railroad trains and facto ries where conflicts between union and non-union labor existed.

He said the confession was placed in the possession of attorneys representing the National Erectors’ Association and has been aent to Los Angeles to be used in the trial of the cases against the men under "errest.

The New Berne Journal in commenting editorialy upon Con gressman Kitchen speak in con gress a week ago, says: “But now “on the morning after,’* from a democratic view point what is the gain? Is thjs thing actual gain to demecratic interests that is just now all important, from both a party view and also the stand of those who want to see legislation that shall help the people; Personal campaign thunder, sought by any democrot at this time, is most unfortunate. It means injury to democratic interests. Particularly was Mr Kitchin unhappy, democratically politically considered, in attacking Sen ator Simmons, or rasing th^ republican laugh against fis fellow mensbers, Messrs. Webb and Gucger. Looking at Congressman Kitchin’s reciprocity speech, going over It and considering it with its too general hearty acceptance by his political friends, the republican enemy, and the political shafts of scorn cast upon his own party members, it looks as tho the gain was on the republican side. It seems democratic political fate when * the promised land of national success comes in view for the party to stop by the way side, and its leaders fritter away opportunities, to play the poli tical game of personal advancment, and thus weaken the party internally, when its entire strength, of each member, sould be against the political enemy.” Congressman Gudger in com menting upon Kitchen^s speach says: “The country demanded tariff legis lation but not personal criticism. Mr. Kitchin’s words of abuse of three North Carolina members, he said, came as a surprise. He declared that Mr, Kitchin should not have impugned the motives of his colleagues. Mr. Kitchin, he de clared, would cut a pretty figure marching with Payne, of. New York, and Crumpacker, of Indiana, the one the republican floor leader and the other the greatest enemy of the south.” Mr. Kitcken seems infinitly more interested in looking after his, and his brother political fences than he does after his country, or his parties interest.

Tommie, Frank and Joe Cook, was down in the sticks Saturday night, they reported a pleasant time. Mr. Ed. Thompson, went to Orange The Milk in the Coacoanut The republican policy of reciprocity is to preserve protection by knocking off a little of the tariff on one thing if some other nation will knock off a little on something else. It is simply the op>en door for a trade between two nations which regard each other’s ^ , , u V J • t mff as robbery. You will never hear Grove Sunday, hope hehada mce time., Mr. J. C.
