Their anixiety is rapidly passing. They now are assured that he will reject a bill which in its im portant provisions he does not approve and which will disap point the country. They are convinced that he does not fear the business consequences of a veto, as the commercial interests will get along just as well under the Dingley law as under a law not materially different from the Dingley law. There are two things which President Taft must consider of vital importance when the bill comes to him: First, if there is no real revision downward now the country will instruct the Congressmen, Re publican and Democratic, who are elected next time, to take it up. It is revise now or tackle it again. Second, if President Taft sur renders abjectly now to the Al drich oligarchy in the Senate, the next House surely will be Democratic, and Mr. Taft would be so weakened in the West that it would make his renomination doubtful. Senator Aldrich is convinced that he can continue his present arbitrary course in the interest of the American capitalist and 4-19 Vfwerv if There is no V?. m ueuer xuaii Dummies IP , a-, -.t. m "k.T T T 1 n 1 i der, $13. y; i in. mgiey,ireignt ingt the American housewife, on same, fci.iw; vvaveriy noiei, aTir1 thnt whpT1 thft tJme comes to teemng jury, s.4?f ueo. u. cer- dpal -th M T ft he can Ke nard & Go., recora tor register s t)1. , armmA tn thfi Aldrich wav office, $11.80; A.

Correspondence of The Robesonian. Since my last communication to The Robesonian I have been on a most pleasant trip to friends and relatives in the Alfordsville section. That part oi our countv contains many of my father's kindred, and his native home is there. In traveling from one point to another I passed by this home and recalled to mind inci dents which he used to relate.oc currences of his boyhood days. As we drove along through the out skirts of the farm on one side and Wilkinson Swamp on the other, my iancy located a spot in the edge of the swamp about which he and an elder brother had an unusual experience on one occa sion. The brother was nearly grown and father a lad of 12ur 14. They were plowing together, and one day when the dinner horn blew they decided to turn the'r horses into a small enclosure bv the side of the swamp, a cool, shady place.grown up in tall.lux uriant grass, and let them graze instead of taking them home. So they shut them up in the little pasture.and on their return from dinner they found father's little black horse in a state of frenzy, running ana pitcning aoout in the pen, while the other horse had jumped over the fence and made his escape. Upon investigation the poor little horse was found to have been awfully whipped, great welts showing all over his legs and body. For some moments the boys were puzzled for a solu tion of this strange problem, but finally the elder brother exclaim ed, "Duncan, it must be a whip- snake ;and a search through the tall grass soon proved his surmise correct. It was indeed one of those pugnacious reptiles, of enor mous size, which thev slew with a fence rail,and after liberating the terrified and afflicted little beast, they went in search of the missing one, which was found some distance away, still snort ing and frightened, but unhurt, as he had doubtlessmade a strike for liberty in the beginning of the fray. During my visit down there, I met an old friend and Confeder ate veteran, who in the course of conversation mentioned having a little sketch of his war history, which I procured and send to you for publication. This brave, though modest, old "soldier boy" tried to exact a promise of me to with hold his name, but this I refused to do, because, as I told him, our boys who wore the gray deserve every particle of honor and praise which can be given them. The following is a copy of these 'rem iniscences of an old veteran at Fort Fisher, " which I am sure will be read with interest through out the country. After the first attack on the Fort the good ladies of Wilming ton prepared a nice dinner for the garrison, intending to see the dinner served; but owing to the tide making out, they could stay but a short time. After leaving a little distance, one good lady turned back, and meeting an of ficer said to him, I want you to see to it that the privates get their share of this dinner . would like to know her name.ard if she is still living. "I was a member of Co. B, Bla den Stars, heavy artillery, Capt; Daniel Munn, the Regt. being commanded by the gallant and late lamented Col. William Lamb. On the 15th of January, '65, sev eral charges were made by the enemy at the gate, but were re pulsed every time. Finally by a flank movement they mounted the works and captured several of our men of the36th N.C.,3d N.C., and a part of one Co. of the 21stS. Ca. Those who were not killed or wounded marched down to the sally-porte. The rort went up about 10 o clock at night, and in the midst of the melee, not fully realizing the existing conditions and with a desperate hope of vie tory still burning in his patriotic heart, one ot the boys, Dodridge McCallum (now of Mississippi), yelled out, 'By grabs, boys, give it to em, we are not whipped yet!' "After our capture we were marched up the beach some two miles above the Fort, and there guarded until Wednesday, when we were marched through the ruins of the Fort and placed aboard a steamer for a Northern orison. During this voyage a conspiracy was iormed Dy some of the prisoners to suppress the guard and crew, take charge of the vessel, and make .for some foreign ports; but upon investi gation the supply of water, coal, etc., proved to be inadequate, and, fortunately tor us, the plan was abandoned. On Monday morning, DEMOCRATS ROAST AN. after the fall of the Fort (several prisoners were put in an old 'bomb-proof inside the works tJltV??h UWarV and Bailey Pas, moved to the main works, and a L , , 'r "ne, 11 Few" utimuiio iaui;j iinu millions BRY- was seen going into one end of the bomb-proof with a torch, and was warned by a prisoner not to ap proach that place with fire, as there was powder in there: to which he replied with an oath, '1 am going to see what you d d Rebs have in there'. So in he went, and in a second a fearful explosion occurred, killing two or three hundred Yankees (most ly negroes) and several of our own poor boys, including my brother-in-law, the brave Lieut. Wm. II. Buie, who, having been wounded in the attack on the Fort, was left with other of the wou nded, awai ti ng transportation to the hospital; nd was never seen nor heird of after t he explo sion. He was fromHladon coun ty. The Yankees at first thought the explosion was caused bv an electric wire from across the riv er, in the hands of the Confeder ates, and threatened to execute as many prisoners as they had killed in the bomb-proof; but as certaining the cause, they found that it was the result of Yar- kee recklessness, and we heard no more of it. "On Thursday we left the be loved shores of our native Stale for a Northern prison, and were soon in the throes of that terrib'e malady sea-sickness from wnicn one oi our Doys died on Friday afternoon. His name was Dan McNeill, son of ex-Sheriff McNeill, of Cumberland county. He was a general favorite in the command, and the writer minis tered to him as to a brother. When he died, so great was the fear of his comrades that his body would be cast overboard that his death was kept from the knowledge of the captain and crew until we reachedPointLook out, our place of confinement, where we were guarded on the outside wall of the prison by ne i i i .I groes, wno nau no regard lor a for the r j of th Ste PROFESSIONAL CARDS Thomas L.

Respectfully, J. Evander Alford, Rowland, N. C. I am proud to be instrumental in forwarding to you the above reminiscences, and wish every surviving veteran would give in through the press his own per sonal experience. So much of interest to coming generations, and so many deeds of gallantry which should form Southern his- ory are already buried in sol diers' graves, never to be resur rected or recorded, whicn is a fact to be deplored; and now I would plead with the lew re maining veterans to give us their war history. Don t hesitate be cause of false . modesty, nor a sense of inability to write in grand style of flowery speech; we just want it in your own everyday" language, and if too old and shaky to wield a pen, you j'ust sit down and dictate and have one of the children or grandchildren do the writing. No news in the Fork, except abundance of rain. Farmers are busy harvesting grain, and some of them are plowing in peas to day in the stubble lands, it be ing too wet to plow in the grow ing crops.

In reply to an inmiirv i,, whether he had anythinir'to s.-iv about Mr. Bryan's attack on the 1 Democratic Senators wh voted against free lumber. Sena tor Simmons said no; that Bry an's opinion as to his action was of no special concern to hini;that he had acted upon his own judg ment in this matter and upon what lie regarded as the interest and wish of his constituents, and lie was respon sible to them and them alone. "But," he added, "I have some thing to say about Mr. Bryan's repudiation of our national plat form declaration in 1892. In 1892," Mr. Simmons said, "the Democratic national convention nominated Grover Cleveland for President and adopted a plat form declaring unequivocally for the repeal of the 10 per cent, tax on State banks. Un June b, 1891, a vote was taken in the House of Repre sentatives, of which William J. r i was a member, upon a proposition to repeal the tax of 10 per cent, upon State banks, in accordance with the platform declaration upon which Mr. Cleveland was elected. There was a yea and nay vote and Mr. Bryan, together with a few oth er Democrats, voted with the Republicans and the proposition was defeated. On the dav be fore this vote was taken Mr. Bryan made a speech against this plank of the Democratic platform in which he said: 'It has been stated that every Dem ocrat is in duty bound to vote bank tax because of the plank relating to that subject adopted by the last Democratic national con vention. A platform can only bind those who run upon it. He contended that this platform declaration bound Mr. Cleve land, because he ran on the platform and accepted the election, but he argued that it did not bind him because he was nominated before the adootion of the platform and because he repudiated it in his canvass, and then he added: 'If there is anv person in my district who favors a revival of State bank currency, I am not aware of it. In record ing ray vote against the repeal of this tax I am expressing. therefore, the opinion of my constituents, and carrying out my pledges as well as recording my own best judgment.' In other words, Mr. Bryan was a candidate for Congress in a dis trict in which the Democrats were opposed to this plank in the platform he wanted to be elected and he joined them in re pudiating it.
