At a recent conference of the Executive Committee of the Democratic party, which was attended by many of the lead ing citizens from different sec tions of the State, and in which our present political condition as a party, was discussed in a spirit of forbearance and con ciliation, it was deemed wise t issue an address to the friends and adherents of th party u rg- ing that the same spirit shall enter into and control all our discussions and actions prepar atory to and during the great struggle of 1892. At this conference the under signed were selected to prepare and issue the address, and we were especially enjoined to voice, as nearly as possible, the spirit of harmony aid unity aud loyalty to tho Democratic party which characterized the conference. It must bo apparent to any thoughtful observer that there is a general depression in" Agri culture and a consequent f cel ingof dissatisfaction aud un rest among those engaged in that pursuit, though tho tillers of the soil are not the only ones who are suffering from this gen eral depression This want of Erosperity among the farmers as seriously affected in great mass of those engaged tho other vocations; in fact but few have escaped its baleful influence. liienweare common sutterers from a common cause. If this be true, can there be any rea son why we should not work together to remove this causa and drive from power its author? -. The real author of the griev ances cf which the people so justly complain, is the Republi can party, which has adminis tered the iederal government fo the benefit of savored .-lasses and ug-iinst tho toiling mass es of the American Deonle. Aud we appeal to our fellow-citi- iron a nf nil VftVTtinnH tn fttnH shouldur to shoulder in the fiirht i we must make against this great adversary. In the dark days rinrtr ilava fullnwirifr : 1868 and 1809. we stood together against this same enemy in Mato affairs, and we conquered. The lessons then learned should not be forgotten, and we expect them to bear fruit in 1892, if we do not mistake the temper and patriotism of our people. Let us not be guilty of the folly of wasting our strength and dividing our forces iu un compromising, acrimonious con tentions among ourselves as to the best means cf accomplish ing a deliverance from tbe evils which now environ us and from the burdens which now weigh us down. Amowr these evils and bur deus wo will mention two about which it seems to us we can all agree and frm which we can not hope to be delivered tin we overthrow the party which created thein. The first of these is t he inadeauate supuI v of mon ey in the country and the want of a better system for its dis tribution, so that it may be procurable more easily aud at reasonable rates of interest; and the other is the uujuxt and burd ensome system of Tariff ' Tax ation The former we regard as the chief cause of the stag nation in business, and the lat ter a powerful ally in robbing agriculture and labor of just re ward. That tho supply of cur rency is wholly insutlicicnt for the buhiness trasactious of the country needs no argument to prove. It is the experience not only of the farmers but of most men engaged in othcr business and professional pursuits. Now, and to this inadequacy of mon ey supply and its improper dis tribution, the unequal and un necessary burdens of Tariff Tax ation who-e cruel - exactions have now realized the wildvst dreams of the most exorbitant monopolist, and we find a suf ficient cause for tho unrest and disquiet existing among our people. Woailirm that these evils are the direct offspring of Republican legislation. Other causas of greater or less weight may be assigned for the present depretsion in agriculture and other pursuits: but they too, so far as their origin can be traced to legislation, must be charged to the same licpuuucan party; for there has not been an hour in the last twenty-five years when that party did not control one branch or other of Congress or the Executive and thus hold an effectual check at all times upon the power of the Democratic party to give Jho people relief and redress by re pealing vicious legislation and enacting remedial measures; so that it cannot in fairness ; be said that the Democratic party is responsible for failing to do these things. In our opinion the shortest practicable road to the redress of the wrongs and evils which oppress the country is through the complete triumph if the Democratic party, which jls the party of the people, whese fundamental principles arena harmony with their interest. The committee, composed of i a . . ten uemocrais, nve 01 wnom be long to the Alliance and five of whom do not, but all speaking tnescntimentsol tne Democrat ic party, sympathize with and unite in the strenuous demands ot the poop'e, uttered through tne ivarmers7 Alliance, tne van ous industrial organizations and otherwise for such thorough reform in tbe financial system as will give to our people sound currency in sufficient abundance and properly dis tributed, and relief from the burdens of tariff taxation, As to the particular methods and plans by wiiicn these ou jects, desired by all true Demo crats, are U be accomplished, it is but natural that there should be honest differences of opinion. One man may .assign one cause for the general stag nation in business and suggest a remedy which he believes to be a sovereign remedy. Anoth er- man equally - intelligent and honest may oilier with him as to the real cause or .the proper remedy to be applied. It is manifestly unjust to ch irge either of these men with dishonesty or enmity to reform where reform is needed. Our f riMids must learn to dis cuss all questions concerning these matters in a spirit cf fairness, good will, and mutual confidence and esteem, within the party lines, and when the time for action comes unite up on such men aud such meas ures as seem most likely to lead us to victory and to secure for the people such wise and need- ul reform in our national legis ;,aHa as shall havtr respect to jtue gooa ot tne wnoie people uu ouau uut us ivr mo ucucut and enrichment of the few. If we will remain united and de termined, we may dislodge the Republican party from power aud in time work out these needful reforms, but if we di vide up among ourselves it can but result in continuing this party in power and thus perpet uating the evils 01 which we now justly complain. The unity of the Democratic party in the whole county is essential also te prevent the en actmentof the Force Kill which would forever destroy the free dom of elections, perpetuate the rule or. the Republican party and its vicious measures, which have so oppressed the psople, and ruin especial! t.e South. We have reason to apprehend that this danirerous bill, which we all had hoped was dead, will be revived again and enacted into a law if, by our divisions, the Republican, party should obtain once more full control of the law-making power of the Federal Government. Then too, we have so much at stake at home in North Carolina. From 1871 to 1891 our State Legislation has been wise and for the best interest of our peo ple. From 1870 to 18U1 these wise laws have bevn wisely ad ministered, and during all that period we have had a clean, pure, progressive administra tion of our home affairs; and e do not hesitate to say thilt the State government given us by tbe Democratic party is as near perfect as human institu tions can wall be made. It would be madness in us to di vide up among ourselves and by this division turn our State gov ernmentover to the party of 18C8 and 18G9; and we think to sow the seeds of discord ana oromote division in the ranks of the Democrats of North Car : olina, from whatever motive,! would imperil the best interest of the State and should be avoided by all true men. in view of these tacts, onaoi the far-reachta conseiiui.n'' of the great strugglo of 1892, we ur&reuuon Democrats ia every section of the State and of ev ery shade of opinion to lay aside all feelings .of prejudice and distrust, and to study mid discuss every proposition made for reform with an earnest tie sire to secure the best. , Speaking by authority of the State Executive Committee, we urge all our people to retrain from fault-finding; we condemn abuse and vituperation In what ever ouarter. exhort all to nrac tice a prudent and rational for bearance, and commend to you me supreme virtue oi cuaniy. Lt US' concede to all, as we claim for all, the inalienable right of opinion. The : monopolists and their foster-father, the Republican party, will not loosen the fetters with which they have bound us without a desperate struggle, and we cannot please them bet ter than to waste our energies in fighting each other. Let us so demean ourselves now that we may be able to present an unbroken front to our common enemy when the time comes for action. Patriotism, coun try and home appeal to us for harmony and promise tho rich reward of unity. . ' Ed. Chambers Smith, E. A. Moye, . Elias Cark, Wm. M. Robbins, . A. Leazar, Thos J. Jarvis, S. B.

Professor Holmes, the State Geologist, has been boring for coal and oil on the Ureensboro mining company's property at Town Fork, Stokes county, for several weeks After he had gones down zoo feet with a three inch bit a two inch drill was put in; when he had driven 100 feet further, it was ascer tained that it would not work, consequently came back to where the two inch drill was put in and reamed the bote in order to keep any soft su stance from clogging the drill. A nun dred feet below the main body oi coal was found, no on was found, however, as they antici pated. Concord Standard.

The Constitution says the people were tired of agitation and the continual infusion into every municipal campaign of the liquor nnestion. and "the success of the citizens' move ment puts agitators and fac tions upon notice that we are going to pull together for the best interests of our city, with perfect harmony In our coun cils, and without a single ele ment of discord to interfere with our progress."

Net Pleased With It. The Republicans don't like the result of the recent elections in Iowa aud Massachusetts. It iooks too much like they are loosing control of two of their former strongholds and thev are not pleased worth a cent. But if thoy will look at the matter calmly and honestly they will soon arrive an the conclusion that they are to blame for it. The policy of the Republican party is not calculated to give it a lasting place in the atfec tionsof the people. When we turn to the history of Massachusetts we find that Democratic Governors have not been numerous, and the re-elec tion of one for a second term is something that has never before been witnessed by the present generation. It is no doubt a fact that Gov. Russell's re-election is due to a great extent to his personal pop ularity ana spotless record, but it is also largely due to the fact mat no was nshtin-j for prin ciples that met with tbe appro val of the people of tho old Bav State. The contest was made upon party issues. Both parties went into the campaign with energy and a determination to win. lho debates were made by leading party men upon prin- cipies wuicn uiviee me two parties and after a hard fought battle Uov. l.usscll was victori ous. The thoughtful tKKple of this country are becoming tired of paying a high protective Jtariff. Tariff, limited to the expenses of the government economically administered, is all that strikes an honest man as being just. All tariff above and boron d this is an unjustifiable and unpar- tonable oppression It is takimr from the pockets of the toilers and wealth-producers their hard earnings, by a fallacious pre text, that aniojnts to nothing less than robbery. Tho people do not object to paying the legitimate expenses of the gov ernment, but since the davs when they kicked against the unjust taxation of tho mo:hcr country, they have been opposed to oppressive and burdensome taxation. As long as the Republican party, advocates this oppres sive measure and manifests sectional prejudice, it need not be surprised to hint its power and iallueuce waning. i ' tte, " A Wuriilti to Lazy Men.
