It is'now supposed tout that paper-will fie the organ of tue Third party; The Prohibition National Con- Tention will meet June 20th in Cin cinnati1, to nominate a candidate to Or J t . fill Mr. Harrison's seat in the White UK',wiSpuso; There are several more Natu5sal conventions to be held and it looksr as if the average man can ' get suitou after a while. , J . - Mr. J. A. Hollomon has accept- ed the position of news editor on the State Chronicle. Mr. Ilollomon was news editor on the Intelligencer and later he occupied the same position on the Winston Sentinel, and 'his able work has at all times been ac ceptable, and the Chronicle is to be congratulated. :;,s' The two letters written Col. Polk, one from this State the other from t Kansas, both by the same man, ask ing itbout the Soldiers' plank in the St Louis platform, seems to have gotten the gentleman very much mixed. Supposing the letters to be from different sections the answers were formed accordingly. v This is going to be the heaviest campaign battle ever fought in the United States, from the fact that the scriptural writings are about to bo carried out : Friend against friend, father against son and neigh bor against neighbor. ' There does not seem to exist any inclination to re.-1 org unity among tho masses, they see trouble ahead and are trying to increase it, and will not abate their mad ciU'i'or until tho 5th of Novem ber, when one of tho old parties will be reported victorious. ,'e Lav-1 a sp .y r - - .LL-er i hint DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM. The following h the State Demo cratic platform as adopted by the State convention assembled Ma 18 : Resolved, 1. That the democracy of North Carolina reaffirm the principles Of the democratic party, both State aud natio nal, and particularly favor the free coinage of silver and an increase of the currency, and the repeal of the ' internal revenue system. And we denounce the McKinley tariff bill aa unjust to the consumers of the country, and leading to the formation of trusts, combines and ' monopolies which have oppressed the people ; aud especially do we denounce the unnecessary and bur deusonie increase iu the tax on cotton ties and ou tin, so largely UBed by the poorer portion of the people. We likewise de nounce the iuequitous force bill, which is not yet abandoned by th republican party, but is being urged as a measure to be adopted as toon as they regain control of the House of Representatives, the purpose and effect of which measure will be to es tablish a second period of reconstruction In the Southern States, to subvert the liberties of our people aud inflame a new race an. tagonism and sectional animosities. 2. That we demand financial reform, and the enactment of laws that will remove the burden of the people relative to the existing agricultural depression, and do full and ample justice to the farmers aud laborers of our c ountry. 8. That we demand the abolition of national banks, and the substitution of legal tender treasury notes in lieu of national bank notes, issued in sufficient volume to do the business of the country on a cash systeja, regulation the amount needed on a per capita basis as the business interests of the country expand, and that all money issued by the government shall be legal tender in payment of ail debts, both public and private. . 4. That we demand that Congress shall pass 6iirih laws ns eh all t fleet ually prevent the dealing in futures of all agricultural and mechanical productions; providing such stringent system of procedure in trials as shall secure prompt conviction and im posing such penalties as shall secure most perfect compliance with the law. 5. That we demand the free and unlimi ted coinage of silver. 6. That we demand the passage of laws prohibiting the alien ownership of land, and that Congress take early steps to devise pome plan to obtain all lands now owned by alien and foreign syndicates ; and that all lands now held by railroads and other corporations, in excess of such as is acta aliy used aud needed by them, be reclaimed by the government and held for actual settlers only, 7. Believing in the doctnne of "equal rights to all and special privileges to none," we demand that taxation, national or State, shall not be used to build up one interest or clat.8 at the expense of another. We believe that the money of the country should be kept as much as possibles inhe hands of the people, and hence wyi'o'mund that all revenue, national. Staft fr county . shall be limited to- ine necessary expenses of the government economically aud hou KiiJaamirjisterecl. , '8. That Congress issue a sufficient amount of fractional paper currency to facilitate the exchange through the medium of the United States mail. i Resolved, That the General Assembly pass such laws as will make the public Kchool system more effective that the bles sings of education may be extended to all the people of the State alike. ,;,f. 'that we demand a graduated tax on in comes. ' Oh, What a Cough. ' - Will toil' haed th warnincr. Thft sicnal perhaps of the sure approach of that more ten iui uincMo yuunuiujiivu.

Koper BREAD AND BACON. A correspondent . of the Milton Entersrise writes as follows : It is doubtless true that something more of legislation in the interest of the farmer is needed, but no legisla tion can help his cause so effectually as he can help himself ; and ho can do it, by planting loss of the so-called mCney crops, which really seem to be debt-making crops and more bread and bacon. Give mo plenty of bread and bacon and I shall not need much tobacco aud cotton. I may not handle very much money, but what I do handle will be mine. I had rather make only one hundred dollars and be able to lay it aside in the old "blue chist," than make five hundred and then have to pay it all out for provisions done and eat up, and maybe have to sell a mule to finish paying up. There is not much fun in handlingother people' money for nothing. Let the smoke-house and corn crib! be in. the edge of the yard instead of " in the West and North ; let us live at home and we 6hall be independent. So long as the farmer has to begin right after Christmas to go to town after his bread, bacon aud hay, so long will he eee hard times. , v i Again, he must cultivate fewer but richer acres. It is a fact that one acre onght to produce as much as two, of the average farm. It costs but little, if any more, to work an acre of land in a high state of culti vation" than , it does to work a poor one ; ana mc worK is a great aeai more pleaeeut because you know the rich acre ill respond to your labor so much jfnore bountifully. I never did likeyto try to get anything out of a sfcfngy man, nor is there any pleasure in trying to get work out of old horse that is so poor and aV-thjit Iia rim hnrdlv tvuvfil. nnd J.V : j ' I is just as unpleasant -4ind discour fging to try to get a good crop from t poor piece of land. J have seen ' mi trying to grow on land that was i poor that tho laborer must have it while working it, that he was vol ipgf r not1 in? !i:ul board in 7 as that won't do, it is a waste of time and labor. And yet thousands and thousands of just such acres are cul tivated every year. It requires a wholo plantation of buch acres to make a little Why not enrich a few acres, and cultivate tho crops on them- well, when twice as large ti yield will turn out? I know what it is to drive the wagon over a wholo field and gather up a fow nubbins, and I know what it is to drive in where the ears are thick and heavy. Yes, in my opinion, the way to bo prosperous and independent, is to reverse the present' order and have the bread and bacon crops tho larger, and tho money crops the smaller, and to cultivate fewer but richer acres.
