BELL- Some Views in Rezard to the Inter est of the Alliance Suggestions as to Uow to Protect Ailiance raen and Defend Democracy I have beep approached by a great many men from almost every section of the State since I arrived in the city of Raleigh the 1st of January, in regard to the advisa bility of reorganizing or reviving the alliance. Therefore I have conclude.'! to write this article on the eubjetrt for publication. I wish ti, ray in the outset, that I am thoriiuhlv in favor of the 'princi- 11 en t tnc auiance. as ci oui.m our State Constitution but I wi-h to fay right here that I will have to pce.the order in dilTerent hand, nn.l runnin? in ditferent erooves ; , f , haye an..thing more I j to do with it. . Take the first declaration of principles, which reads as follows: I. "To labor for the education of the agricultural classes in the science of economical government in a strictly non partisan spirit." It is not neeessary forme to say that thi- provision of the Consti tution has been violated. I doVt believe there is a single so-called alliance organ in the State that has not trampled under foot this known provision of this once glori ous organization. No society, church, or government can hope to live long or prosper in open viola tion of its own fundamental law. Again article 3, section 1 reads as follows; " No person shall be ad mitted as a member unless he has been a citizen of the State of North Carolina for six months past, and not then unless he be a farmer, farm laborer, fisherman, mechanic, country school teacher, country physician or minihter of the gospel, whose work is mainly in the coun try, or editor of a strictly agricul tural paper." One word in regard to those agricultural or non-partisan news naners. How can vou construe tboe so-called organs to be non partisan? The first job I see for them to do i to prove that the Third nartv. or Peoples party is a - a w not 11 party, or at least not a poli tical party. I admit there is not a creat deal of the Third party, but it h nevertheless a party, a political and a very bitter partjsan party. They may, however, save themselves under Dr. Sanderlin's definition of the diirerence between a farmer and an agriculturist. The Doctor saye a farmer i a man who man age! a farm and an agriculturist is one who manages the', farmer. I don't suppose that one of those editors has done an honest day's woik on a farm in ten years. I wif.li ! say further that the alliance t--.mds to-day indicted be fore the ves of the civilized world a being corrupted into a huge po litical machine. To prove thisyou only have to turn to the record of almost every leader from its na tional head down to the little eub correspondenr. Why. almo'st every day you see resolutions published that have been passed with closed doors en dorsing the course of their leaders, and contributing of their funds to further the third party movement. A great deal of said funds were put there by others. There is $35, 000.00 in the hands of 11. A., our trustee, and I don't see but one way to that fund, and that is to either let the whole structure fall or for the farmers and laborers to get to gether in their various sub-alliances, throw open the door and make a scourge of small cords and bind the hands of those who have prostituted the order, and then take such steps as will in their wis dom save to them this snug ilttle sum of money. If the charter of the alliance prevents the proper iwanauement of this money, then let the general assembly be a6ked to change or repeal the charter, eo that it. cannot be used, as it may and cannow be, to aid in further disintegrating the alliance and dis rupting the democratic party. The i-uestion will doubtless be asked, why throw open the doorB. Simply for the reason that the or der hs gone under suspicion and in my opinion ought never again be resurrected in secrecy. The further question, may be asked what good can you hope to accom plish if every body knows what you ire doing? I might with as much propriety ask how could the church of Christ hope to save fallen man unless she closeB her doors against all who are not members thereof. I hope I will not be ac cused of violating the Constitution for faying that we , were assured before joining the order that the obligation would not conflict with our religious or political views. We were told in the beginning that our object was to elevate mankind! by dissolving prejudice and selfish ness in the sunlight of human love, and to further benefit man socially and morally. Can you hope to benefit your brother by denouncing him as a traitor and a hypocrite simply because be does what he was assured he could do before joining the order? And yet we find this has been done as far as I know without a single exception with every one of us who refuse to surrender cur manhood and walk like dumb cattle into the Third party pasture. That there are bad men in the democratic party and all other parties, and that the dem ocratic party has, and will yet make mistake, no sane man will deny, but I want to say right here that in my humble opinion, if we poor toilets, as we are called, are ever saved from plutocracy and ruin, it will be done by the bonestyeomanry tegistered under the democratic banner. J, S. Hell. . . ' Interest. There was an interesting discus sion in the Senate last week upon the proposition to strike out of the present usury law the provision thnt allows contracting parties to agree to a rate of interest so great as eight per cent. The bill, we be lieve, comes up again sodn, and if it passes it will hereafter be unlaw ful for any one to charge or to agree to pay upon any contract more than six per cent interest. We are very willing to leave it to the good judgment of the present Ceneral Assembly, to solve the vexed question. Hut a serious question is whether or not, if the maximum rate of the interest is fixed at six per cent, people who desire to borrow money can do so at that rate. In this connection the debate upon the usury law in the Senate jof 1874-75 comes to our mind. Serving in that body and among its members, was a dilinified and respectable old colored man, Senator Richard Tucker, of. the county of j Craven, lie listened with great interest to the discus tion concerning the cheapening of mcney, but he could not exactly understand how the people who wanted to borrow at G per cent, could do so even if the bill should pass. So after the bill -jSfseed the Senate andjit was declar-ed unlaw ful to charge more than 0 per cent, interest, he introduced the follow ing supplemental bill : The (lateral AssemhT, of Xorth Carolan Jrfo Enact. Section 1. " That any citizen of this State desiring to borrow mon ey shall file his petition before the Clerk of the Superior Court of the county in which he resides, setting forth the sum he desires to borrow, the security he offers and the name of the person being a citizen of the same county who has the money,' Sec '1. Thereupon the clerk shall summon the person having the money, to appear before him at a certain day or shoir cause why he should not loan the money to the petitioner, and shall also ap point a committee of three disin terested persons to examine and report upon the value of the secu rity olTered for the loan. - Sec. 3. If the person so sum moned before the clerk 6hall ad mit that he has the money as al leged and the , committee shall re port that the security offered for the loan is in all respects sutli cient, then the clerk shall duly en ter judgment that the loan be made as demanded by the petitioner up on the execution and delivery of proper rate and mortgage. Src. 4. That the said judgment shall be enforced by proceedings in contempt in the event the de fendant refuses to make the loan as adjudged." The foregoing Ivll of Senator Tucker's did not pass, and the law fixing the rate interest at six per cent, and no more, was repealed at the next eeesibn of the. General Assembly. I Don't waste time, mone and health, trying. every new medicine you may see advertised in the pa pers. If the cause of your trouble is in the blood, liver, stotnacn, or kidneys, take Ayer's Sarsaparilla at once, and be Take no other, sure of a cure. The Sherman Silver Act Secure W'ashixoton, Feb. 1. The d.ej ptblican members of the Senate, under direction of Senator Sher man, have just completed a poll of the Senate on the" proposed repeal of the Sherman Silver act of lbUO. The poll was made by ScmtoTP Chandler and Dixon and it is said that the result is not at all satis factory to those who have looked forward to the possible repeal of the act. According to the com mon report, these Senators have eliscovered that 'there are only about eight members on the Demo cratic side who can be depended upon to vote for the repeal and that the result is even more dis couraging on the Republican side. There are some Senators,- and in this class Senator Piatt is placed, who are in favor of or who would vote for the-repeal if the -measure came to vote to bring it under consideration. It is understood that there is a majority of seven or eight on the Republican side of the chamber against bringing the measure to a vote. Tutt's Pill is the family doctor. FROZEN IN THE ACT. . Thieving; Woman Caught in a Steel Trap She Dies. Joseph A. Baker, a leading farm er of Marion county, S. C, has re cently been missing corn from his barn, which- seems to have been ex tracted through a crack. Tuesday night he set a steel trap in the barn at the place; where the corn had been missing, and next morning on going out he noticed the form of an old colored woman named Dolly liethea, who had been some time in his employ as cook, standing fast) by the side of the barn, with one haud through the crack, quiet and motionless. -Mr Baker entered the barn and unlocked the trap, when the old woman fell. Her hand was badly cut by the strong jaws of the powerful trap and her body was frozen, the weather being intensely cold. She was taken to the house and cared for, but she die'd later in the day without having regained consciousness. Weknow of.no preparation for the hair and fccalp that equals "flail's Hair Renewer. Famous War Song. 'This man, Larar Fontaine," con tinued the General, "is famous through the South for two things. It was he who, in May, 1803, under took the eeemingly foolhardy but nevertheless successful exploit of carrying a supply of percussion caps from the Confederate General Loring's headquarters at Jackson, 'Mississippi, to the beleaguered General Pemberton, in Yicksburg, when that commander -was entirely out of caps, and consequently could not lire a gun. ! Fontaine who then, as now, was a Mississinnian.- had horses shot a a f under him, and any quantity of bullets fired at him, making numer ous holes in his clothes and equip agej besides otherfrightful dangers in that terrible experience.' He is the hero of . twenty-seven hard fought battle?, and came out of the war minus a leg and bearing other evidences of his war experiences. He is still living in his native State, where, at tha age of CO, he works hard at his profession ' of surveyor and civil engineer. j "The other thing for which he is celebrated is as the real author of the popular war song, "All Quiet Along the Potomac To-night." To be sure, that fact is disputed, but I notice in a book of war songs recently published he is given the credit which to him rightfully be longs. The following is a copy from the original poem : . "All quiet along the Potomac," they ("Except here and there a stray picket, Is shot as he walks on his beat to and fro liy a rifleman hid in the thicket." 'Tis nothing a private or two, now and then, -AVill foot count in the news of the battle; -Not an ollicer lost only one of the men, Moaning out, all alone, the death rattle. t . ' All ouiet alonr the Potomac to-night, Where the soldiers lie peacefully : dreaming; Their tents in the ray of the clear au tumn moon ' Or in the light of their camp fires gleaming. A tremulous sigh asagentlenight wind Through the forest leaves softly is creeping, , "While tlie stars up above! with their glittering eyes, 1 Keeping guard o'er the army while sleeping. Tiu-re.i.? only tbj sound.of the lone sentrv 's t read, I Ashe tramps 'from the rock to the fountain, j And thinks of the two on the low trun- dlebed, " T Far away iq the cot on the mountain. i .'

Then drawing his sleeve roughly over his eyes j h He dashes oil' tearsThat are welling, And gathers his gun close up tp p ts place, ! i A if to keep down the heart swelll- ig- ' j He passes the fountain, the blasted plne tree, i His footsteps are lagging and weary Yet onward he goes through the broad belt of light, Toward the shade of the forest so jlreary. . - Hark! was it the night -wind rustled the leaves? Was it the moonlight so wondrously ll ashing? . It looked like a ri tie " Hal Mary, good-by '."' And the life-blood is ebbing and plashing. All quiet along the Potomac tonight, Xo sound save the rush of the river; While soft falls the dew on the face of t he dead That picket's oil duty forever! To the question. Which is your favorite poem? there may be a great variety of answers; but when asked, which is your favorite blood purifier? there can be only one'.re ply Ayer's Sarsaparilla, because it is the purest, safest, and most econamical. Plain Words from Grover. A Baltimore Sun reporter recent ly met Mr. Cleveland and pro pounded a few interrogatories to which he received prompt replies. This is what the Sun's New York correspondent writes: "Do you think the repeal of the Sherman silver purchase law of sullicient immediate importance to make the question of an'extra ses sion, in case a repeal bill is not passed this session, a matter to be taken under consideration in view of the additional consideration of the tarilF revision?" I don't know," was the reply. " Do you believe a repeal will be passed?' y . " I hope so." Have you anything to offer the public on th tariff? Will the Mc Kinley taritf law be repealed ?"' i - " I d like to know what else we are in "power for." A Very Distressing Casualty. News was received by the Ob eever from Asheville, at 12 o'clock last night, that Mr. Lloyd Smith, the night clerk at Battery Park Hotel, whose family reside m "this city, and who is well-known here, killed himself by the accidental discharge of a pisti i which he was handling. . - The account was very meagre, giving no further pa-ticulars than those above stated.
