While this is trie . fldwell, it is no less true in vVatauga, for,, within the f Vtt few weeks, soma of our citizens, who were comforta My situated and making In dependent livings, have sold out and Ht for the w"8t, and we fear their last condition will he worse than the first. It is true that the pro pects here, owing to the hard year through 'which we have Just passed, are rather irloo my. but the conditions are much the same throughout the country, as the crop fail ore, money panic, etc., are widespread indeed and the rtboIe country is in the very throes of hard times and de pression in many reRpects. t this wild idea of going west, and trying new fields, ke abandoned by on r people, tind let them stick to t heir old bonnes in Western North Carolina, the most . God-favored country on the face of the earth. - The question of amending the Constitution so as to per ' mit of the election of United States Senators by the peo ple, seems to have taken a new lease of Jife within the - past few days in Washing ton, as it haa been actively discussed by the democrats in 1 o b b i ea anrl committee rooms. U'illiam J. Bryan, on his recent visit to to Wash ington warmly advocated.the :hange. which may have add ed much to the interest ta ken in the subject. To elect a United Stares Seuatorby the popular vote, is only to do right, and we lrope to see the rday when all other methods will be set aside, and the voice of all the people may oe heard in the selection of . their reDrcRentative in the up per house of Congress.
