GOOD RESOLUTIONS
FOR
1894.
Sliop Economically. :
You cannot shop economi
cally at stores vhere one hun-
ered per cent, profit are put
on goods you ned in every j
day life it is impossible. To
shop economically, you must
sino-le out the merchant who
sells goods for
Cash and Cash Only,
and who by so doing- can af
ford to undersell his - "Credit
System" competitor to the
tune of from twenty-five to
thirty-three and a third per
cent. Walk hand in hand with
the CASH .merchant and you
have started on the bright
road to economy and wealth.
The cash merchant has no
book keeper's salary to pay,
no collector to pull your door
knob off, no printer's bill for
stacks of printed bill heads.
All these expenses, not to
mention the losses by bad
debts, are saved to the cash
m?n,"but the fcredit man must
add on so much to his profits
to cover these necessaries,
and You Pay for It.
Did you ever think of his ?
We admit its "so conven
ient to have it charged," but
kind friends, this "conven
ience 'comes mighty high to
you. Our low prices and cash
.system have made the Cash
Racket Stores a by-word in
every house in Wilson and the
adjacent counties. We shall
strive to make 1894 the ban
ner year of all its predecessors
by, giving our patrons unprec
dented bargains. Our change
less motto in Underbuy and
Undersell-, That's our secret.
Start to-day and shop econom
. ically, we can help you do it. -

SAM JOxNES ON Tim TIMES
The Patient is Convalescent,
Don't Seem to Know It.
But !
Commercial and Financial LaGrlppo Hai
Seized the Body Politic No Legis
lation Will Cure It Regenera
tion the Only Remedy.
COPYRIGHT, 1891.1
NASHVaLB, Tesn., January 25. I
have just made a tour through Tennes
see, Arkansas and. Texas. The patient
is convalescent, though I doubt if the
patient is conscious of the fact.
I mean that times are improvingr
though the people seem hardly willing
to admit it.
There is an easier feeling in financial
circles, more movement in commercial
circles, and a more hopefuf tone among
all classes.
The southern states wre last to feel
the stringency, and will be first to re
cover their prosperity. Texas has suf
fered less than any of the forty-four
states. Her banks are deluged with de
posits, her stores filled with goods, and
her trains loaded with cotton.- The
farmers are . buying all they need, and
most of them are paying up old bills
and paying cash for new goods.
Times are brightening. They are
now hopefully better, though itfe a long
ways, even now, to complete recovery.
The wise man who thought that the
repeal of the Sherman silver purchas
ing act would give returning prosperity
is now an acknowledged f 00L The man
who now expects relief from tariff tin
kering, will soon have to join in the
same procession with the "gold bug
gery" and "silver diggery" crowd, and
take a back seat. There is no remedy
in legislation for the present stringency.
There is no manufactory, either in
wool, steel rails, cotton, or wood wares,
that would not be running twenty-four
hours a day, and evcry"3uy in the year,
if there were a demand for its products.
We are overstocked. Surplus, surplus
in everything but common sense. Eng
land, Australia, Germany, China, Ha
waii have not overstocked us. The
United States has produced its own sur
plus iron, flour, wools, cotton, corn,
dog fennel, &c, &c.
Tariff on imported goods, high or low,
won't cive the much longed for pros
perity. The McKinley law did not
avert commercial and financial disas
ters, and the Wilson tariff bill will not
bring back commercial and financial
prosperity.
The abundant output of iron in Penn
sylvania and Alabama has made the fur
naces and the mill operatives poor. The
abundant "wheat harvests of the north
west have made farmers almost penny
Icks. The abundant cotton crop of the
south nas well-nigh bankrupted this
section. The abundant output of wool
len mills have proven their own ruin.
Would it be wise to burn up the sur
plus, or dump it into the sea? Or
would it be wise to sit down and do
nothing a year or two, and eonsume the
surplus in idleness ? Or will it be wise
for the west to continue her abundant
wheat harvests, at forty cents a bushel,
and the south to produce her eix'ht to
ten millions of bales-'of cotton each
year, and sell it for less than the cost of
production ? Or for the Alabama fur
naces to continue to make pig iron and
sell it at six dollars and sixty cents per
ton, &c., &c.
There is now a condition of things
that cannot be reached and cured by the
V3pqi isings of congressmsn or the la
bored, well-written articles of the news
papers and reviews.
Our ereed for Told has inn us in this
hole." "It's money in your pecket"' the
1 ace to outstrip others to produce more
and cheaper goods than ov.r competitors
combinations, cliques and cheats,
r.r.m. Rascality and Reciprjeity.
(.knnpeting with the half-starved labor
of Eijro; e, : we grind the laboring men
a, d women cf this country beneath the
upper a ad nether mill stones of our
greed for gold and the deshje to beat a
competitor in the race.
..This same spirit is seen in all trades
and marts. Now and then you will see
that the cotton planters have, in con
vention assembled, resolved that they
would only pi ant half Of the la nd usu ally
put in cotton, and then each farmer,
thinking that will be the caseand that
therefore, cotton will be high priced,
thinks he will double his acreage and
thereby grow rich." And thus it goes
each year with the cotton planters. So
with the wheat and iron producers, and
so with all manufacturing interest.
The sugar makers in Louisiana have
the best snap I know of, and if the sugar
bounty holds out their fortune is made.
By the way, can't the government give
the iron and wheat and cotton and rice
producers a good nice bounty ? Can't
they give us preachers a bounty on our
converts, and the negroes a bounty on
their children and dogs ?
How I wish this government was not
Bankrupted ! How sorry I am that
Mr. Carlisle is just at this time trying
to borrow money at 5 per cent interest.
Some of ns had hopes of borrowing from
the government at two per cent. I
know that the two cents per pound
bounty on sugar has given prosperity to
know that tbe two cents per pound
all southern sugar piarair, ana lr iiifc
government could cease to look to the .
people for its support and pitch in and
'support the people awhile, we could all .
be prosperous then.
The people of this great country never
wrestled with the problem which now j
vex them. New ; n 1 untried'problems
in the commercial and financial world,
-iike new diseases in the physical, vex
and puzzle all experts and doctors.
"LaGrippe," with Us ' ravages on the ,
human system, and its hurtful after ,
effects, puzzling all f.ie physicians, finds I
its parallel in, and, therefore, is akin to j
the disease now. playing Qavoc in the '
commercial wrkl. Xo statesman can j
diagno'-: the trouble, am! no lemlyap- j
pli-;d gives relief. . '"Time heals " all '
thinpfs," and time alone can give us the
relief for which we ask.
The question of ri ht and wrong does
not enter into t'tc qn.-vitions of the day. ,
Commercial integrity", individual honor,
and general trrstwcft'jiness, have abov.t
playelox-.t. Money was never so cheap,
. and n.-ver so hard to borrow. Mer-;
chants were never more eager to selL ;
and never j choice cf their customers.
Capital andlabor were never more dis
trustful of teach other. Compacts ar
broken, agreements made void, debts
repudiated, until confidence between
man and man can no longer be based
upon honor, but upon collaterals and
forfeitures.
We need moral, commercial and po
litical regeneration. Repentance is not
enough. The work must begin in the
uidividul.
Even now, church membership is no
guarantee of integrity and honesty. If
all the members of the church in this
country get to heaven a fellow will have
to sleep with his breeches under his
1 ad eve ay night.
Birth and education are no guarantees
of integrity. Sometimes 'F. F. V."
stands for full-fledged vagabond."
The chuseh is on the one side and the
penitentiary cn the othery with human
ity between. The church draws but
little and the penitentiary scares less.
Regeneration is the remedy, the ne
cessity for which, grows out of the fact
that we are all born out of whack, in
the first birth, and we will never meas
ure up to duty and destiny until we are
born again.
.. Then every corporation would have a
soul and every man a conscience.
Then a man's word will be better
than his bend.
Then life will be worth living and
Heaven will be attainable.
Then thtrpresent cry that "it's money
in your pocket" will be hushed by the
desire and deed which will seek to help
men and,make the world better.
Then, the flow of funds into bucket
6hops, horse races, saloons and gam
bling hells will be turned in its course
and made flow into the legitimate
channels of honorable business enter
prises and into the things which will
bring about the betterment of hu
Dianity. Yours,
Sam Joxes.
UNCLE BOB'S LESSON.
now an Old SrgTo Toalit tlie Emppror!
Slster-ia-Latr a Point o.i Etiquette.
Mme. Betsey Patterson Bonaparte,
the -'sister-in-law of an emperor, was
born in Baltimore, and after living
manyjrears abroad returned to her na
tive land, where she passed the last
years of her life. ' She was a woman of
great beauty, but of an ungovernable
temper. A writer 4n the Boston Trans
cript tells how her sense of humor
ODce enabled her to accept a reproof
graciously.
One of the old lady's crack stories in
her latter days was of a lesson in eti
quette given her by the black butler of
her host. At breakfast she motioned
to him and handed him her cup, wish
ing a second cup of tea. Uncle Bob,
instead of taking the cup to his mis
Irons, at the head of the table, put it
down with a great flourish on the side
board. .
"ilr.t I wanted another cup of tea,"
tri.l Mme. Bonaparte.
"Did you, mum?" blandly asked
Uncle Bob. "You see, mum, you put
your spoon in de sauscr, an dat in.ans
you doaa' want no mo' tea. When you
waut3 some mo' tea de e'roct way is to
-put do spoon In de cup like dis heah,"
:ind Uncle Bob gravely illustrated the
'e rect" method of procedure.
Tbe family were on thorns, expect
ing an outbreak from the sister-in-law
of an emperor, although there is no
doubt tht a black butler in his own
bailiwick co5 1 face an emperor him
self; but Betsey was only amused, and
laughed heartily.
'After fifty years of morcy getting
and money saving she realized in the
latter part ox her life how futile it all
was. and oieiaiined, grimly: "Once I
had everything but money! Now I
have nothing but money."

the next move of Governor Tillman in
the dispensary war. The" Washington
Light Infantry, the crack military
company of the city, tdept on their

to use them. There is . much talk in
militia circles about 'this company. It
has taken a prominent part heretofore
,in the history of the state, having1 en
tertained the Old Guard, of New York,
and having visited Bunker Hill on the
occasion of the centennial.
. United States Judge C. II. Simonton,
,who Governor Tillman denounce s as a
,fi d?ral satrap, is ah ex-commander of
this corps, w-hich is; comjfejsed of the
.elite of the city. Governor Tillman's
call on them to guard bis dispensary
constables is not relished by the mem
bers. The latest ph: si in the matter
,will probably lead to soras qu .'er de
velopments. T'lie cofttstabies are to be
armod with improved riiles and will
hereafter parade the streets in their
hunt after blind tigers uadcr arms.
Governor Tillman, in pardoning Elli
ott, the constable who was sentenced
!for striking a woman, .wlios house he
was said to have raided while druak,
jsaid: "They (alluding 'to the people of
Charleston) shall nit put lying wit
nesses against a gcnth;m.-:n I know per
sonally to be a gentL-m:in. I would
take Elliott's testimony against that of
any liquor dealer in Charleston or any
where else. There Ere numbers of peo
ple in Charleston who would not par
'jure themselves, and such men shall be
put on the jury or I will remove every
'trial iustice in Charleston."
It should be mentioned that Elliott
j was not tried by a jury. His lawyer
( 'dispensed with a jury and asked the
justice to hear the case hunself. Six wit
nesses testified that he struck the wo
man and their evidence was nnimpeach
ed. There was not much excitement in
the streets today, but the city is leaning
on a volcano which is liable to burst
forth at any moment. In liable to
burst, it may be interesting to note
that the bliud tigers areuiill holding
the fort and doing a thriving 'business
at the old stand.

thro ughout the Manpfield coal resrion,
' the f-e.;ne of Sutur-dliy's rioting. But
, few fctrikers, were seen out of their

j was regarded as preceding the storm.
, There are well grounded "fears of an

j wore supposed to be ia sym

wilh the strikers, and this evening re-"
turned with the information that pre-
pi; rations were being made to attack
tiio works at Bridgtyrille, Kosevale and
Beui-Liing. The feeling among the
rioters is very bitter against the Bead

Tho Great Tariff Debate in the
Lower Houso of Congrresa.
THE VOTE TO COME GX THURSDAY,
After a Bed Hot lU-ba e Under the riv
31inct8 Rale And Then the Hawa
iian Question is on in Earnent
Some Other Forecasts.
Washington, January 30. The great
tariff debate will close in the bouse on
next Thursday at 3 o'clock, when, ac
cording to the special order under
which the house is operating,, the vote
will be taken on the pending amend
ments and the final passage of the bilL
The debate during the coming week
will relate entirely to the internal rev
enue bill, which the democratic caucus
decided to place upon the tariffL-bfll as
a rider.
-Tomorrow and Tuesdav will be de
voted to general debate, and Wednes
day to debate . under the five-minute
rule, when the internal revenue feat
ures will be open to amendments. Of
course the principal opposition will be
directed against the income tax, which
is being bitterly opposed by the eastern
democrats. '
The republicans, however, will not
vote with the democrat opponents of
the income tax, but will either refrain
from voting or else, if necessary, to
make a quorum, vote for it in order to
incorporate it in the bill. An attempt
to defeat it wi, therefore, be hopeless.
When the bill is reported to the house
on Thursday three hoars will be al
lowed for closing the debate, one and a
half hours on a side.
Mr. Keed will close for the republi
cans and 5Ir. Wilson and Speaker Crisp
for the democrats. The indications are
that when the bill is placed upon its
final passage that it will have a fan
margin to carry it, .
During the past week,' the movement
to recommit the bill looked formidable
as at least fifty democrats, (counting
the anti-income lax advocates) includ
ing all those d issartisiied with any por
tion of the measure, were
counted upon to - take this
indirect method of compelling
changes in their interest. With the r
publican support, this plan might have
succeeded, but on yesterday some of the
republican loaders talked the situation
over and came to the conclusion that it
v ould not be politic to ioin a faction on
the democratic ranks in order to rive
thn
bill a back-set, which might not re-
suit in its ultimate defeat. They have
informally decided, therefore, either to
ref;a'n from voting or else to vote
against ; the motion to recommit, but
they will vote with the opposition
against the passage of the bill, or for a
motion to strike out the eu acting
clause, which motion will place the op
ponents of the bill fairly, and squarely
on record against the entire measure.
This decision, if it is adhered to, in the
opinion of the-democratic leaders, re
moves all doubt as to the final passage
of the bill, as they believe that not
more than thirty damocrats at the out
side will carry their opposition to the
extent of voting direct against the bill.
If the republicans should poll their
whole strength, (124) this would only
raise the vote against the bill to 154, as
with the income tax included it is be
lieved that the bill will command the
entire populist vote of nine. The full
vote for the bill, therefore, could be
300, a majority of 46. It is fair to as
sume that the absentees will be drawn
proportionately from each side, so that
from present indications the democratic
leaders claim a majority for the bill of
from 30 upwards, if by, any change of
program, the republicans should decide
to vote in favor of the motion to recom
mit, the additional Strength, gained
from the democratic side (about twenty)
might seiously endanger, if not defeat,
the measure. But this is not now an
ticipated. After the tariff is disposed
of on Thursday, a special order will be
bvought in for the consideration of the
Hawaiian matter Friday or Saturday.
The McCreary resolution will form the
basis of the debate, and while some
very lively and picturesque speeches
will probably be made, it is expected
that it will be passed practically by a
strict party vote.

Do You See the Point?
We will save you $15.50 in one ton of
Tinsley's Guano.
How Can We Do it?
"It takes two tons of Pocomoke, Whann's, Bradly's
or other cptton goods to make 435 per cent, of . -
Amonia. It takes the same to get 14 per cent, .of ;
available -Phosphoric Acid. In one ten of "
Tinsley's Iligli Grade
We give you 435 per cent, of amonia 14 per cent
available acid.
Calculation:
Two tons cotton guano $26.50 per ton, $53.00
We sell you one ton Tinsley's Tobacco
Guano - - - 37.50
Profit in' favor Tinsleys,
Why does your tobacco take second growth and
cure black ? Because just at the time that it needed
all of its strength to ripen, your cotton guano, gave out
in strength. We can point to farmers who have nev
er failed to make bright tobacco, they use nothing but
Tinsley's Guano. You had better use one sack of
Tinsley's to the acre than three . sacks of cotton goods.
It will give you better results. It is the color that tells
in Tobacco. .

The Golden Rule put this question:
"Should a young man marry on less
than $1,000 a year?" The replies
were from cities and villages all over
the United States, and from persons
representing various occupations
day laborers, mechanics, and profes
sional men.. fThere was no theory in
the replies. The writers told what
they had proved by experience,
which was that if a young couple
were-fit to get married they could
live on a thousand dollars or on one
half that If any husband having a
competent wife doubts this, let him
hand to his wife the housekeeping
allowance to snend at her discretion.
