Ew tk Tariff Affects Iron.
There has beenTin the face
of mjuced tariff duties, an in
ooyraing incrt'As in the ex
ports of iron and tminutac
turus within the paM year,
the value for th past niiio
itfobthW' being f 31, 252,660.
against $27,310,702 for the
corresponding period of last
year. The gain in 1894 show
ed a gain iu 1893, so that
, the gain ha been continuous
and notably this year. The
articles exported -embrace
nearly everything from a nai
to a locomotive, including
agricultural machinery. TIih
opponents of the jiewr tariff
say there is no reason to con
. gratulate ourselves on this.
'for these exports were made
simply to get rid of a surplus
-which could not profitably be
disposed of at, h jme, but t his
is not true, for they h u v e
brought better prices than
heretofore, and in addition to
this our manufacturers would
be more apt to restrict the
output than to kwp on pro
ducing and shipping to for
' eitrn markets without making
any reasonable profit there
by. .
If our manufacturers were on
the. name footing that then
most formidablecompetitorH
are in securing their raw ma
terial tax free, in buying in
the- markets whtro t h py
could buy the cheapest, they
would Hot be long in demon
strating that they are more
than a match for the manu
facturers of other countries,
and iu building up u foreign
trade of immense propor
tions. Wilmington 8tu
Winston Sentinel: After Rev.
Mr. Price had preached his last
sermon to the colored people, a
few nights ago. be announced
that any member of the congiv
gatinu that desired to testify for
the Lord could do so. Several
made short talks, the most per
tinent out of which was a colored
brother who remarked that he
bad heard some people say that
Sam Jones was the greatest man
that ever visited Winston; others
said Mr. Fife was: while others
thought Mr. Price was the great
est. The brother said he would
tell how it was:"Mr. Jones came
here and did tho washing, Mr. Fife
and Price are now here doing de
ironing.'
The following story is credited
tod Teres papti In one of the
earliest trials before a colored
jnry in that State, the twelve
. gentlemen were told by the judge
'.' to "retire and find the verdict."
They went into the jury room,
whence the opening ana shutting
of doors tnd other sound ot un-
s usual commotion were presently
heard. At last the jorj came back'
'''into court, when the foreman
announced: ''We hab looked
every whar, judge, for dat verdict
-. in the drawers and behind de
doahs, buUt ain't nowhar in dat
blessed room." . u, . ; . ,

I, a happy father of twins,

A HpeHnl from Winston to the
Raleigh Sews and Observer tells
the following which is nlleged to
have occurred in the mountains
oil Stokes county last week:
Thomas Mabe was running a
braud.rvliatllerv and when ho
went to '-double" he filled fiin
large still with "Hinjrlings" and
"backings,'' causing it to Imil
over and run down. The liquid
took fire as quick ns.jowler and
caught in the still. The cap wan
blown off and the huildiug was
soon filled witli flames. Trteowner
wes standing near the still, while
his two boys lay asleep on th
floor. The burning liquid run
over the hoys.: Father and son
made a rush for the door, bu.
it was fastened. When thpygot il
op m all three were burned so
badly that all are expect'.! to
dL. The house and contents wc re
destroyed.
Ip addition to the canning in
dustry we should supply the
entire celf ry market of the Stnte.
We have in this valley thousands
of aers of the finest black land
forcelerv culture in the world,
with the advintagethatrunning
water could be put into everv
field at very little trouble or
expeuse It is our prediced that
not many years will pass until
Transylvania will be as well
known in the celery trade as
Kalamazoo, Mich., now fs. Who
well be the first to try an acre of
celery on our black bottoms?
With irrigation, a failure of
this crop would be impossible.

Bunk' Blodsoe has thp con
tract to rMiver a valuable
walnut tree at this place. It
is of the curly variety and
was planted I y Shade Cala
way 85 years ago at bin
hon,e on New river, a bout. 25
miles from this place. A man
by the name of Severt pur
chased the tree from the Cal-
awaysfor $11 and sold it to
northern firm for $125.
Bledsoe gets $75 for deliver-
ing it here. North Wilken

Notwithstanding the i epub
llcon victories of this month,
the price of cotton decline
and the gold in the Treasury
continues, to dwindle. The
lep'ubliean Congress meets'
next week, however, and will,
of course apply the remedy
for these - result of "demo
cratic incompetency!" If it
docs not, the people will
know whpre to place, the ie-spbnsibility.--Landmark.

r The Pemocrrttic party seems to
be in the position the negro said
jobn Minor Bott's race horses
were. Bott's horses lad been
beaten badly by Jones's homep,
and when Bott's nejrro was tak
ing hia horttes off the field, Jones'
negor said to him: 'Take your
horses home ; and . keep them
therethey can't leat anybody's
horses." Bott's uegor retorted:
-Well I'll tell vou what they tan
do they ouu b.t one another
