St^itesville Landmark. Romalus Zachariah Linney, Esq., alias the Pull of the Brush- ies, whose heart’s desire and prayer to God (if he ever prays) is that he may go to Congress, has at last been set on the track and started in the race. The Populists in convention at Wilk- esboro last week endorsed him, and the Republicans, met next day and nominated him. Ten years ago this summer Mr. Lin- Ti(^y w."is • oi'ididate for the De mocratic congressional nomina tion in the eighth district and was defeated. Immediately there after l.is faith in the Democracy began to waver, and since then ihe has “wired in and wired out.” 'Sometimes he was a Republican .of the straightest sect; again he ■had almost wandered back into the Democratic camp: and again, but not un'.il recentl}^ he is im bued with the vagaries of the Populists. Bright man that he unquestionably is, he is so un stable that when he arises to make a speech no man can say •with certainty w'hat line he will take. Two years ago he deliver ed at Boone, Watauga county, a speech which for bitter, unspar ing denunciation of the Alliance. ■Ihe Populists and their principles has never been equalled in this country. Now he is the candid ate of the Populists and J;his Boone speech will return to pla gue and damn him. But this is not the first time Mr. Linney has been a candidate fbr Congress. In 1888 ho start ed out boldly as an independent candidate against Col. W. H. H. Cowles. In a few short weeks gallant colonel drove him from the race and be retired disgusted: another candidate had to be set u]) in his place. This time, how ever, he is armed with the nom ination of one party and the “en dorsement” of another. These will however, avail him nothing. We very seriously doubt if Mr. Linney continues in the race till the election. Opposed to him is the Hon. W. H. Bower, one of the best campaigners i n the State. Gentlemen who are weJl acquainted with both candidates believe that the campaign of ’88 Avill bo rejteated, and that Mr. Linney will retire from the race before the canvass is half finished, Sliould this surmise prove fat ge. liowever. there is not the slightest reason to believe that he can be elected. A gentleman who has been through the eighth district was informed by a lead ing Populist in one of the coun ties that hi.s people would vote foi- Bower if it was a cho'ce be tween Bower aiid Linney: that th.e latter could never explain a- w.ny his I?oone Speech. On tlie .iil.er liand. he is not in liigh fa vor with the Republicans; there | was much dissatisfaction in the 1 convention which nominated him. : The straightouts of the party! wanted E. Spencer Blackburn, t of Ashe, and some of these have said since the convention that they will not vote for Linney. A Statesville Republican of prom inence expresses the opinion that he will be the worst defeated man in the State if he doesn’t get off the track before the election. And so it goes. Verily, the omens are bad for Mr. Linney, and that seat in Congress on which his eyes are now fastened will recede from him as fast as does the mirage from the thirs ty traveler in the desert. By the passage of the tariff bill Congress saved the people of this country in woolen goods alone §141,386,000. Captain S. A. Ashe, late editor of the Raleigh News and Obser ver, is ou': in a card announcing himself a candidate for Vance's seat in the United States Senate. The Reijublican State Conven tion held at Raleigh last week endorsed the Populists State ticket. Queer coai'oination that. The only thing they have in com mon is an earnest desire for office. Last Sunday Mr. German Hay- more was immersed in Lovell’s Creek by his son. Rev. Daniel Haymore. Mr. Haymore is eigh- ty-nine years old and is very vig orous and active for one of that age.— Mt. Airy News. The Republicans o f Yadkin held their county convention last v.’eek and nominated the follow ing ticket. For the - House of Representatives, James Crum- mel, Sheriff L. D. Kelly, Regis ter of Deeds, Will Hall, Clerk of the Court, R. E. Holton, Treas urer, A, P. Woodruff. That's Her Kature. There is a great deal of hard, common sense in the following paragraph from the Blakely Ob server: “A woman will face a frowning world and cling to the man she loves through the most bitter adversity, but she v.^ould not wear a hat three months be hind the fashion to save the re public itself. She just ain’t con structed according to those plans and specifications. Julian S.. Carr, joresident of the North Carolina Democratic Clubs Association, has issued a call to these clubs to meet in Raleigli in convention Septem ber 20th. Each club will be al lowed ten delegates,' and one delegate for each twenty-flve members. Men of national repu tation will attend the convention and speak. Senators Ransom and Jarvis and North Carolina’s representatives \vill be present, and the campaign will be formal ly oiiened that day, and the key note of the fray be given. Mr. C. C. Wright brought to I,his olHce last week a peculiar ear of corn. He obtaiaed a grain of corn from a traveler last year and planted it, from which three stalks sprung up, each bearing its own ear (if corn. The pecu liararity about this ct>m is that each separate grain is covered with an actual shuck, similar in construction to that of the shuck which covers the entire ear. Those who have stock to feed ought to cultivate this species of corn because it fui’nishes both corn and roughness at the same time. It is called the “Holy Land Corn.”—Wilkesboro Chron icle. New Castle Knots. The farmers are well plaased with their good corn crops. Mr. G. W. Mayberry is pre paring to add more machinery to his mills. Mr. W. D. Howard is making some improvements in the way of building. He has the bast corn crop in his history and it is thought he is making prepara tions to take a better half. A gentleman from Elkin was in this community last week rid ing a wheel. Some of the people wore amazed to see a man riding such a thing as they had never seen one before. A gang of would be White Caps went to David Wishon's one night last week in search of Lee Ladd for reporting bkx;kaders. 1 They surrounded Wishon's house [called him out and wanted to ! search the house, Wishon refused i to let them enter and they went 'off without finding their man. : New Ciistle Aug. -7.

He is a born politician not so much beca.use he is an a- dept in its arts as because he is in su^h a close touch with the people arid in full sympathy with them and their aspirations. His friends claim that there is much in his career, just opening upon the broad field of politics, that reminds them of the lamented Vance’s brilliant course through the piolitical heavens. Since 1882 he has never failed to take an active part in every political campaign in Western North Carolina, and his efforts upon the hustings have contri buted greatly to Democratic suc cess in the Eighth and Ninth congressional districts. He nev er fails to interest his audiences n.nd he always gains their confi dence. As a public spieaker he is easy and graceful, has a good voice and is gifted with eloquen ce. He seasons his argument with apt anecdotes and illustra tions. of which he is “reminded" by the subject matter of his i speeches and which he relates ' with a gusto that smacks greatly ! of Vance.
