with tremendous -effect upon
the public conscience. Slowly

tha t the result of the election
will be a great factor in giv

our affairs.. "..They believe as
well as a vast majority of the
American people do, thatthe
time has come When the peo
ple and not the Trusts shall
govern the affairs of the na

power of these soulless com

by and through the policies
or the Republican party, and
now, having grown : to such
colossal proportions, d e f y
the government and spurn
the party nntl power t hat

know that the machinery : of

by the trusts. The import
ance of a political change is
manifest to-all jvbo think,

And the importance of this
change is so apparent ihnt

The Tariff, Moody aid Cabbages.
News and Observer. ' ; . .
Raising cabbages is a big
industry in Henderson couu
ty and many people depend
on - it for ,j their prosperity.
This yeartbe price is so low
that the farmers are having
to plow up their cabbages.
Cotton farmers, cotton man
dfacturers and cabbage grow
era were overlooked in the
Dingley prosperity that Prit
chard tells us so much about.
The Hendeisonville Hust
ler, giving an account of the
joint debate between Gudger
and Moody; shows that Moo
dy is as. deep as a nine hole
about cabbage, prosperity jus
Pritchard is about cotton
mill prosperity. We quote:
"The sensation of the day
at Avery's Creek ; Tuesday
came when Mr Moody, was
in the midst of his prosperi
ty argument. He was telling
of the high prices of mica,
wheat, etc. Some democrat in
the audience sdoke up a n d
said: "Tell them, Moody, n
bout cabbages." Moody thin
king it was some republican,
caught at tbe idea and said:
"Yus, see what the tariff has
done" for cabbages. : Under
the. Wilson-Gorman bill they
were on the free list; we put
three cents tariff on them and
now the farmer is getting a
big price. I tell you, .fellow-
citizens, tae tann is what
Inakes your stuff sell.
"Mr. Moody at tho time
didn't know the people could
not sill their cabbage at any
price. He bad failed to see the
fields along the road, where
the people had ploughed uu
der tbe cabbage for want of
a market. After the speaking
he found out that it was n
Democrat who bad asked
him about cabbage and that
be had made a fool of him
self. The Dingley tariff in
deed.
"Mr. Moody, to our great
surprise, didn't mention cab
bage to-day m connection
witu prosperity, Mr. Gudger
asked him if the high price of
cabbage was due to tbe Ding
ley tariff and he refused to
answer.
"Moody in his reply denied
that cabbages were on t h e
protected list. He never once
thought of Gudger having
the bill. When Gudger in his
reply pioduced the Dingley
tariff bill the crowd cheered.
He awked J. M. Wnlldrop, a
Republican of Hendersonviil.
to read the. bill. He answered
that be didn't have his glass
es: Gudger retorted that you
couldn't find a Republican
now who had his glasses.
He turned to Moody and lo
and behold he- caught h i m
without his glasses along.
Moody is in the hole. He will
either have to go back oh
Dingley, or leave the cabbage
section." ;

: IlMt WH! Sail the Air.
New York Herald. ; r ' ,; '
; E. J. Hunt, an inventor of
152 East Fortieth Street, N.
Y. City, dala res'that be has
at . last completed - a flying
machined or a model of one,
that, without the use of the
balloons or nets, will he uble
to stay eix weeks in the air
without touching thegroubd
the whole time.
Mr,. Hunt declares that his
invention has M. Santos-Do
mont's flying machine beut
en a mile, as it is neither of
the areoplane or gas bag pat
tern, but. will derive its pow
er from its air, and thus . be
able to stay alofl ' indefinite
ly, moving about with the
greattst ense at the beck and
call of the steersman. , ,Once
afloat, he says, it will revolu
tionize all ideas of naviga
ting tbe air. .
In his house under careful
guard, Mr. Hunt has a mod
el of hia air ship twenty inch
es long. This, he says, .h a 8
flown about the room carry
ing a five pound weight.
The airship itself, he says,
is to be. built of aluminum,
and is to weigh 68 pounds.
In shape the model is very
much like a boat or a body
of a bird, and, and from the
sides project a pair of light
wings.
"I ha vo solved the problem
ot aerial navigation," declar
ed the invtntor, when seen at
his workshop yesterday. The
airship will fly like a bird. I
have already demonstrated
its practicability. ! don't
need any balloons to. keep
this flying machine afloat. It
keeps itself afloat. I use no
motors either. The secret of
its construction I keep to my
self. No, the flying machine
is not patented. I hare not
trusted the secret to a pat
