Tbz decision to the Supreme Court declaring constitutional the act j for bidding injunctions to be issued against sheriffs collecting taxes ex cept where the purpose of the tax is illegal or unauthorized is an impor tant one. The digest of the decision p published in this issue. Elsiwhem we print an outline of the tariff measure which the Demo eratic majority of the ways and means committee of the House propose to submit to the full committee and to the House. We have reason tcj be. lievB it is a pretty reliable statement of tjie case. j AJhd so it is to be "my son Oliver," if al they say is true. Well, he will be walloped as easily as any other man the Radicals might put up, if the Dem ocrats turn out, but there's the: rub. Will they turn out? Can they refrain fro& turning out; to the very last man when the issue before us is as vital as it if; when the danger staring us in theiface is a return to Radical; rule with all its horrors? Thi strike on the great Burlington system of railroads, the greatest in the- West and one of the greatest in the world, makes clear one thing and that is the fight between the Brother hood of Locomotive Engineers, hitherto a remarkably wise and con servative body of men, and the Knjghts of Labor. The outcome will be awaited with interest. The same arguments, so far aa the Constitution is concerned, that is brought to bear against the Blair bill, operates to prevent the enactment of pension legislation. No power what ever is given Congress, anywhere in ourf undamental chart of government, to pay pensions. This might give pause to those who, at the bidding of the; piratical G. A. R-, are anxious to empty the public coffers at Washing ton and keep them emptied in behalf of the many thousand leaches on the body politic, with their wives j and their widows, their sisters, their cousins and their aunts, whoj are v are: disposed to suck the very; life blood of the land to the last drop. In this connection read what is else where printed from an article of Gen. Bradley T. Johnson's in the Balti more &m. j ' ' I la-. h. The event of this month will"be the i i s Graven County Oyster, Fish ' and Game Fair, which is to be held at '- New Berne 'on the 13th, Uth( and N. 15th. The exhibit will include: dis plays of native woods, farm product?, . livestock and poultry, marl, antique - relics; fancy work and so on. j! Ar rangements have been made with the ' transportation lines for cheap rates of travel and a large number of i peo ple should make it a point to see the t show. It will be well worth visiting ' In any event, but the whole State . thewhole east certainly should aid in making it a grand success. It is sure to be an admirable exhibition, : as well as one of peculiar interest, ; since it is in the hands of men who ; know no such word as fail, but let us : ; all? endeavor to make it absolutely complete and then all go to see it. It ; will be a revelation even to ; the best ; informed among us. j ' J ; Da. D. W. C. Bkkbow, chairman, and Mr. Wilbur F. Steele, secretary, ; issue a call under date of February , 27th for a State convention of the PfohibitioniBta of Morth Carolina to beheld in Greensboro, Wednesday, May 16th, at 10 a. m. The business of the convention, they say, will be i4he selection of delegates to the na 5 tional convention to be held in In- dianapolis in June ; the selection of j candidates for the presidential elec torships ; the nomination of candi " dates for tbe State offices j the elec jtion of a State executive committee, ;and the "full and complete organiza tion of the State." To the conven tion are cordially invited "the 'veteran 448' who voted for St. John in 1884;the ten times larger number who cast bal . 'lots for prohibition candidates in 1886; and the hundred times larger number who are convinced that the legal sup pression of the traffic in alcoholic drinks is the most vital political issue Of the day," etc., etc. All of which h goes to show that our friends propose to take a pretty big handful of every ( thing within reach. Mb. J. C. Noubse, a pig-iron manu facturer, sends the New York Times the copy of a memorial to Congress a 1870, signed by himself and others in the ironbusiness, protesting against any reduction of the duties on their product, and declaring that if they ' Were maintained for only a few years the industry they represented could be made independent of foreign man facturers. Mr. Nourse now, how ever, appends to the circular a memo randum in which he says: "Protection has done its work as foretold above. With magnitude of capital and labor now employed in mining and manufactures reduction must be made with caution and judg ment. ' Correct errors in the present tariff; put on free list wool, ; coal, lumber, iron ores; make a general re daction of from 10 to 20 per cent; tako off the internal revenue on to bacco. Try this for two years.v This is sensible, and noteworthy as 'conning from a protectionist. It shovrs the drift of reason and it j shotvs also that the Democratic party is right and very right 'indeed in its insistence on tariff revision and tariff : tax reduction to a revenue basis with j whatever protection, and such alone, a may thus be afforded. IS MAH.CHIJTO ORDER. ; No pne unbonded by partisan prej udice can read the debate on pensions which took place in the Federal Sen ate Tuesday without being struck with something akin to horror at the manner in which it appeared that the Grand! Army of the Republic is in tho habit of formulating legislation for the Republican Senate perfunctorily to pass upon. As Mr. Blackburn forcibly said, the organization, 400, 000 strong, is "in perfect marching or der, with knapsacks packed and all things ready" to fall upon any surplus in the treasury and do away with the necessity for revenue bills and tariff revision and the abolition of internal revenue taxation in short order in deed. 1 It has no modesty which might lead it to hesitate about urging meas ures of which itself is to be a benefi ciary. : It is the most thoroughly or ganized political body on the conti nent today and it is a regular pirate on the public purse. It represents a great power that is ever wielded against the interest of the people as a whole. It is a very dangerous political agen cy. It will well bear watching. Fbom a circular issued by Messrs. Kemp' P. Battle, A. W. Mangum, Geo. T. Winston, Claudius Dockery and S. B. Weeks, the executive com mittee of the North Carolina Histor ical Society at the University, we learn that the Society, "realizing how swiftly the witnesses of the late war are passiog away and how constantly the scattered nd fragmentary proofs of its momentous events are being carelessly destroyed;' makes earnest appeal to all patiiotic citizens to join at once in anfeffort it is making "to gather all noteworthy material bear ing on the part the State, her troops, or any other of her people bore in the great struggle of the Confeder acy." The committee says: "We want the reports of her civil and mil itary officers, the story of her troops in the field embracing what is nota ble in the life of all, from the young est private in ' the junior reserve to the chivalrous rank of ' her generals. We wart tbe history of the prisoners confined in her borders and of her Hons who were prisoners in the North; We want the home-life as it was ex perienced by different classes in every part of the State in those bloody years, j We want the minute recital of what was said and done in the mul titude of homeo that fell within the power of the troops of Sherman, Stoneman, Foster and others. We want a graphic and minute account of every battle, skirmish and raid that occurred on her soil. We want all letters, muster-rolls, commissions and other written or printed documents connected with the participants in the struggle." It is hardly necessary for us to say that we hope every aid possible will be rendered the society in its patri otic undertaking. It is hardly neces sary either to explain in the words of tbe- circular that the object of tbe work "is not to revive or perpetuate bitterness of feeling, but to gather and preserve the materials of history for the instruction of the present and the future." The people of the State will appreciate the motive underlying the movement and will aid in the un dertaking as far as they may be able to do! so, notwithstanding the fact that it may be true in a measure, an the circular further says, that; while North (Carolina "is worthy of honor, the world esteems her not, for it has never heard of her greatness : she may always aim to be true to the present; she is certainly always un faithful to the past." We trust so, at any rate. Not; many of our readers may be aware that there is already a full pres idential ticket in the field. Yet such is the fact. The ticket is headed by A. E. Redstone, Of California, and J. A. Calvin, of Kansas, and was put out last week by "the industrial reform" party which is said to be composed of the remnants of the united working men's party and some of the green-backers- The organization makes a formal declaration of principles, which is short and pointed as fol lows: j ' " Whebeas, It is possible to secure many needed reforms under a correct financial and industrial system, there fore, Resolved, 1. That the government shall provide full legal tender money sufficient in volume to meet the re quirements of the people. 2. That the Secretary of the Treas ury shall immediately redeem all pub lic interest-bearing bonds. 3- That all banks of issue shall be abolished." It will be seen thus that the leaders of the party do not halt between any two opinions. Moreover they say they hope to carry Alabama, Arkansas, New York,, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Iowa and Missouri. It is clear, therefore, that we had better look out. We note a marked improvement in the appearance of our local contem porary, the Evening Visitor. It is due to a new dress of type and is an evidence of prosperity that we rejoice in scarcely less than our neighbor it self. "The Indiana gretnbackers have concluded to put no State ticket in the field this fall, but to join the Democrats in the tariff reform fight." They are wise. VIIB PENSION SYSTEM, (Geli. l'.raJH'y T. Johnson In the Baltimore Sue.) Since 1885 the aggregate which has been paid for pensions is $870,000,-000- The population of the United States is now about 60,000,000, show ing that during the year 1887 each niau, woman and child in the United States paid a little over $1.20 apiece for pension. Now tha population of the States south of Mason and Dixon's line is about one -third of the whole population of the United States. Smce 18G5, therefore, these States have actually paid in taxes for pen sions the sum of $290,000,000, and during the year 1887 they have paid over $25,000,000 on the same account. Tbey are, therefore, paying an annual subsidy of $25,000,000, about 5 per cent of which is returned to them in the way of pensions paid to their cit izens who served in other wars. Since 1880 the population of the United Stated has increased 20 per cent, and the following table shows tne amount paia Dy tne estates namea for pensions at $1.20 per capita, and also the amount received by pen sioners in those States during that year: j Paid. Received. Alabama, $1,817,280 ' $29,888 Arkansas, 1,154,880 83,269 j Florida, 387,360 24,971 Georgia, 2,220,759 27,981 Louisiana, 1,434,240 26,984 Maryland, 1,346,317 135,672 Mississippi, 1,629,549 22,211 Missouri, 3,122,467 483,575 N. Carolina, 2,015,680 29,994 S. Carolina, 1,433,626 12,433 Tennessee, 3,220,990 205.081 Texas, 3.280,117 59,559 Virginia. 2.178,093 101,199 W. Virginia. 890,567 138,645 Kentucky, 2,375.113 313,689 Delaware, 211,114 28,446 Total p'd, $26 717,042 $ 1,734,115 Total r'cd 1,724.115 Net paid more than received, $24,992,927 That is, the States named actually paid in taxes for pensions during the year 1887 about $25,000,000 more than they received on account of pay ments made to their own citizens. In Other terms the war indemnity laid upon the South on a basis of 3 per cent equals $833,000,000. When we take into account the fact tha1 the estimated loss of prop erty to tho South by the war was $0,000,000,000 consisting in wreckage of every kind, it must be conceded that no such tribute has ever been exacted by a conqueror in war except ia one or two notable instances. LouUbtirg Notri. Cor. of Uie News and Observer. Louisbcbo, N. C, Feb. 28, 1888. Mrs. S. G. Furgerson, relict of the late W. H. Furgerson and mother of Mrs. Capt. Fleming and Mrs. L. P. Hicks died here yesterday morning. She was a most estimable lady, a member of the M. E. church and one whose death will be regretted by a large number of friends. She died from congestion of the brain. For the season of the ' year the weather is very cold. We had a slight sprinkle of snow yesterday morning. The preparations for crops in this section are unusually backward on account of the exceedingly bad weath er, but from the number of mules and horses that have been sold here it seems that a large crop is pretty gen erally expected. Mr. Thos. Makin and his family from Manchester, England, have bought land of Mr. Arthur Arrington and settled down to farming. They are people of intelligence and we hope will be successful. Mr. Makin (pere) is a preacher of the Independ ent Methodist Church and those of our people who heard him preach (at Cook's Chapel, about 3 miles below here on the 20th) were well pleased with his discourse. His family have much musical talent and took charge of the singing. Mr. Makin was a print dr calico manufacturer. Our brothers in black were novelties to him and on his first coming he was somewhat afraid of them. ; Business is very good, cotton is coming in more freely and the out look is good. i w. Farmers' Institutes. Elizabeth City Falcon. The notice that Mr. Robinson, the Commissioner of Agriculture, would be here and address the farmers of Pasquotank was so brief that many did not learn of it, consequently the attendance at the court-bouse Satur day, the 28fch inst., was not large, but every One present seemed intensely interested, and we have no doubt but that the movement inaugurated at that time will accomplish great good. The meeting was called to order and addressed by the Commissioner. His talk was interesting, and was listened to with rapt attention. Ou motion of Mr. E. F. Lamb, a oommittee of six was appointed on permanent organization. The I committee retired and upon returning reported as follows: Presi dent, J. R. Etheridge; Vice-Presidents, W. S. Williams, D. J. Smith sou, J. L. Sawyer, Jno. S. Morris, J. N. Wihslow, J. M. Weeks; Secretary, J. S. Cartwright; Treasurer, F. F. Cohoon; Superintendent of Experi ment Farm, E. F. Lamb; Directory, O. F. Baxter, Jr., C. W. Hollowell, Ruf us Scott; Superintendent of Local Development, C. C Pool; Executive Committee, Mark S. Sawyer, Elliott Whitehurst, W. W. Kennedy, Mark G. Gregory, J. B. Cartwright, T. E. Palmer. A goodly number of the farmers of Camdejn county assembled at the court room on Friday, the 17th inst., in response to the notice of the State Commissioner of Agriculture, John Robinson, who promised to meet them on that day and organize a Farmers' Institute and to establish an experimental farm in the county of Camden. G. O. Luke called the assembly to order and presented the Commissioner of Agriculture who addressed the farmers at length on the subject of the Farmer's Institute and matters pertaining thereto. Mr. Patrick moved that a committee on permanent or ganization be appointed by the chair, which was accordingly done. The oommittee reported as follows : Pres ident of the Institute, T. B. Boushall; vice-presidents, M. W. Gregory, of Shiloh, W. N. Sawyer, of South.MillB, and C. L. Grandy, of Court House townships; Secretary, G. D. B. Pritchard; Treasurer John A. Bartlett; Executive Committee, L B. Sanderlin, J. S. McCoy, and E. M; Sawyer; Chaplain, Rev. R. R.Overby, Superintendent of experimental farm. John Upton, and superintendent of local development, W. G. Ferebee. Fowls sod Uaios, Cor. of the News and Observer. Aulakdeb, N. C, Feb. 28. The names ol Fowle and Mason have stirred our people to action this early in the campaign year. Tbey re member that unselfish anu noble cam paign of 1876, and recall with pleas ure the telling effects of Judge Fowle's speeches made then as well as every other campaign since. Al though he has had cause to complain of neglect by the Democratic party, it has tiever proven an ingrate, and will give him the nomination for Gov ernor in 1888. Our people am for him. The Hon. Thos. Mason would sta tue whole Roanoke valley and bring mousanas out giaa to support that noble Cause, Democracy. G. Forty bbls genuine early seed potatoes today, H nb. zvtb, & A. B. Stronach's. O. rtse at W. Asnsrtlls HoUs, I Cor. ot the News and ObserTtr. ; Abbevtlxi, N.1C., Feb. 27, 1888. Revi Mr. Pearson will spend part of May here. It is understood he will preach. There is some talk of making suitable arrangements for the proposed meetings. ' A series of revival meetings are in progress in the Northern Methodist church, conducted by Rev. Mr. Al dridge, and attended with much suc cess. . A performance by amateur min strels will be given at Battery Park Hotel Saturday evening, for the benefit of the Mission Hospital. The new hotel called "Oakland", being built by Mr. Garrett, is rapidly approaching completion, and presents an imposing appearance in its beauti ful and lofty location in the south end 5f Asheville. Mr. Gay Williams, who was one of the lieutenants of the old "Rough and Ready Guards", Captain Z. B. Vance's company, has returned to Asheville to reside, after many years' residence in Texas. The "Rough and Ready Guards" were commanded during part of the war by Daptain J. M. Gudger, who was recently appointed a postoffice inspector by President Cleveland. The Citizen makes public two real estate transactions, which illustrate very pointedly the wonderful increase in real estate values here during the past twelve months. Tho old John ston corner was bought by a party at public sale for $13,300. In less than one year after the purchase he sold a portion of it for $9,600 and . was offered subsequently $23,000 for the remain der. Another purchase was mad-j for $5,000; and the property re sold a year later for $16,300. Many other instances might be, enumera'ed. Prominent among them was the Eagle Hotel deal. This property was bought last spring for $30,000. In a few months after two-thirds of it sold at public; sale for some $29,000, leaving about one third valued at $12,000 as the clear profit on the transaction. Real estate has been dull during the past few months, but with the open ing of spring the market, it is con fidently expected, will be as lively as ever again. Building is going on in all parts of the town ; and this year will witness another remarkable pe riod ojf rapid growth and develop ment. The, Superior Court of Madison county opens today, Judge McRae presiding, for a two weeks' term. A cold wave struck us yesterday. The niercury fell to thirty degrees above ero. followed by a considera ble fal of Bnow. The (proposition to raise money for the establishment of a sewerage sys tem meets with general favor. I think the measure will be voted. A town of Ashjeville's size and prospects de mands imperatively a 8e wage system; both for health and property velues. The vote will be taken in April. If it shall carry, Asheville's future as a prosperous city is assured. W e iie to have a new daily the Sun, the proprietors of which are Messrs;. Hobgood & Fitzgerald. The paper is to be straight Democratic, Ine Advance, we understand, is to be revived as a Republican organ. The; political pot has not com menced to boil. There is hardly a bubble visible yet. When the pot does begin to boil it is likely to kick up in a very lively manner. There is no crystalization about anybody's name for any office except Cleveland for President. For all other candi dates the field is open to Ransom, Waddll, Jarvis, for the Senate; to Stedman, Clark, Holt, Fowle, Gilmer, Alexander, and all others for Gov ernor; and bo on, and eo on. Among the Republicans it is safe to say the demand of the party here will be for Nicholis for Governor, as his nomina tion is the most dangerous for de mocracy. Charles Price, H. G. Ewart and James E. Boyd would make strong; Republican candidates in the mountains. John Ransom,' a small boy, was brutally assaulted Saturday night in Doubleday town by a ruffian and slightly stabbed. As an inducement to immigration the R. & D. R. R. Coaipany have established a round trip rate of $15.15 from Washington to Asheville, for the benefit, particularly, of farmers seeking homes in this section. Mr. ! P. A. Wiley, of Durham, is here, stopping at Battery Park. A new bank, with a capital of a hundred thousand dollars, is to be opened. The! erection of a new passenger depot I of large and elegant dimen sions, will soon be commenced. Brace Up.

"Did n't Know 't was Loaded" May do for a stupid boy's excuse ; but what can be said for tho parent who sees his child languishing daily and fails to Tecogtiize the want of a tonic and blood-purifier? Formerly, a course of bitters, or sulphur and molasses, was the rule in well-regulated families ; hut now all intelligent households keep Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which is at once pleasant to the taste, and the most searching and effective blood medicine ever discovered. Nathan 3. Cleveland, 27 E. Canton st., Boston, writes : " My daughter, now 1!1 years old, was in perfect health until a year ago when she began to complain of fatigue, headache, debility, dizziness, indigestion, and loss of appetite. I con cluded that all her complaints originated in impure bleod, and induced her to take Ayer s Sarsaparilla. This medicine soon restored her blood-making organs to healthy action, anil in due time reestab lished her former health. I find Ayer's Sarsaparilla a most valuable remedy for the lassitude and debility incident to spring time." J. Castright, Brooklyn Power Co., Brooklyn, N. Y., says : "As a Spring Medicine, I find a splendid substitute for tho old-time compounds in Ayer's Sarsaparilla, with a few doses of Ayer's Pills.
