Last Tuesday, at the annual meet ing of the State Farmers' Alliance, President Elias Carr, speaking on the depressed condition of agricul ture throughout the country, thus forcibly sketched the part the war tariff has played m bringing about this depression: "The government for the last thirty years has been run in the interest of a victorious war party. The war feeling has predominated in every national elec tion, ihe men who did the righting have no voice in the government. Who are the men in power to-day? Those who were enriched by the war and its consequent legislation. The ill-gotten millions of these legislators have been the power behind the throne. The evi dence of this is found in the history of the laws, the history of the bonds, the history of the national banks and the history of the demonetization of silver. But a stronger evidence yet is the pre sent condition of the working classes, who, as a rule the world over, are pa tient and peaceable, "What means these labor organiza tions? This that the people see by combination alone can they live. Un der a purer system of government forty years ago these organizations were un known, and there was no necessity for them, but to-day how different! Every branch of trade has been compelled to ojganize to save itself from absolute an nihilation, and is it to'be wondered at when we come to learn that the present iniquitous tariff laws, the passage of which was purchased by a few thousand rich manufacturers, have robbed the people and put into the pockets of these same manufacturers no less than nine billions of dollars. Hence it is that at our city of Washington the protest of a millionaire will over-ride the petitions of millions of working men. "The acts of Congress in aid of agri culture for the last twenty-five years have been few indeed compared with those kof our rich manufacturers, and the tariff is so manipulated that they the few thousands reap the entire ben efits. We all know but too well the re sult of the reign of selfish greed. The small land owners are being pushed to the wall, the larger ones are no longer able to make both ends meet; farms in the North, South, East and West, and especially West, that twenty-five years ago, during the period of sjreatest infla tion, paid a fair percentage on a valua tion of 20 to $40 anacre;;are now being toreclosed on mortgages for half that amount and the former owners seeking hood emPlQyment a liveli- hntirrtJ comnentary on humanity, but nevertheless true, that with an unpl qual distribution of wSuhXre "s n- equal distribution of social power. The influence of the middle class, the man of moderate means, is no longer felt in? the legislative halls of the capitol; he is being swept away. Wealth is rapidly concentrating, and out of' the conse quent corruption but two classes are forming the Iordlv rich and the beg garly poor." We devote much space to this ex tract because it is a forcible delinea tion of the blighting effect the tariff policy of this government has had upon the agricultural industry, and upon the labor of the country gen erally. There are other causes, it is true; the demonetization of silver; the organization of trusts; the con traction of the currency consequent upon the demonetization of silver; the concentration of the money of the country in a comparatively few hands, enabling them to contract the volume of currency when they see fit to do so, and thus run interest up and other causes that might be men tioned, but this high tariff has been at the bottom of them all, and is the main cause to-day not only of the farmer's embarrassment but of the trials to which the toiling mil lions of this country have been sub jected. This is one of the wrongs that the Democratic party has been fighting for twenty-five years, and which it is fighting to-day, on which there is no difference between the respect ed President of the Alliance and the Democratic party. Hence the Alli ance will be found seconding the ef forts of the Democratic party to re peal this high protective tariff, the first move that must be made, for while that lasts the agencies are per petuated against which the farmer who seeks relief must contend. He concludes his reference to the tariff thus: "While free to admit that the iniqui tous protective tariff has brought about the present depressed state of agricul ture by stripping the poor of three fourths of their natural savings and con centrating a majority of the wealth of the country in the hands of an infinites simally small part of the people, com posed of manufacturers, trusts, pools and combines, a repeal alone of this unjust measure would not relieve the present distress. It would not lift a single mort gage. The one thing needful in the present financial condition of the people is a debt-paying system of finance, in comparison with which all other ques tions sink into utter insignificance. Evidently there is something more than reform on the tariff question necessary to put the farmer on his feet again, and there must be a mon etary system adapted to the business demands of the country; but if a monetary system were established which would put into the hands of every farmer in the country money enough to discharge all his obliga tions and leave him entirely free from encumbrance it would be only a question of time when he would be be in the very same depressed con dition again if the causes which brought him to that condition re main. The axe that kills the tree that bears bad fruit must strike at the root which feeds the branches. MINOR MENTION. Senator Plumb put the protec tionists in a tight box Thursday when, on the failure of the amend ment to reduce the proposed duty on tin plate, he offered an amendment to give a bounty of one cpnt a pound and let the duty remain as it is. He argued with much force and manifest pertinency that whereas the high tariff advocates proposed to take off the tax on sugar and give in lieu of the protective tariff a bounty on su gar, as the same principle applied to tin plate there was no reason why they should not reduce the duty on that and give a bounty to encourage the establishment of the tin plate in dustry. The consistency of his posi tion and the inconsistency of the high protective advocates who op pose it becomes the more apparent if it be true, as Senator Dawes as serts it is, that the tariff imposed on manufactured articles which are not produced in this country "goes into the pocket of the foreign producer." Whether this be true or not, it is the position which they take and logi cally they ought to stand upon it. To do otherwise is to admit that they now propose to give the for eign producer of tin plate 2 2-10 cents a pound, or nearly $15, 000,000 bonus on his tin plate instead of the 1 cent a pound, or 7,000,000 a year which, accord ing to Senator Dawes, we have been giving him. Leaving out of ques tion the principle involved in the bounty proposition, which is quite as good, however, as the principle in volved in this robbery in the name of protection, as an economic busi ness proposition the odds are all in favor of the bounty, for under it the foreign produce would not be getting the benefit of the tax, and in stead of paying this extra tax on 350,000 tons of tin plate imported the consumer would pay it only in the tin plate actually produced in this country. They will beat Mr. Plumb's amendment, but they can't do it without stultifying themselves. The situation in South Carolina is not encouraging to the,, friends and; well wishers of that State, for the indications now are, unless cooler and wiser counsels prevail, that there will be a split in the Democratic party and two State tickets in the field instead of one. In the Column bia convention which was called to decide certain matters in reference to the selection of delegates, &c, to the convention which meets September 10th, the adherents of Mr. Tillman were numerous enough and assertive enough to carry everything their own way. It is alleged that they exceeded their powers and did things -they had no right to do for which reason certain delegations withdrew from the con vention. It is urged by the more uncompromising advocates of the straight out movement that they ignore the action of the Columbia convention, call primaries and elect delegates to the September conven tion. Of course this means two con ventions, and two tickets, for the friends of Mr. Tillman would never consent to go into and take their chances in that convention, which they would naturally regard as hos tile to them. We have not under taken to keep up with the tangled web of the contention down there, for the situation has been very much beclouded to an outsider by the intemperate zal with which the controversy has been carried on by both sides, and the primary campaign characterized by uncontrolled, ill temper from the start, but we have failed to discover any differences that could not be reconciled by men who subordinated their own opinions, ambitions and resentments to the peace, happiness, prosperity and safety of the State. Whether Mr. Tillman or some other Democrat shall be Governor of South Carolina is a small matter com pared to imperilling these by a' sui cidal contention among Democrats which should and could be avoided if a cool, compromising spirit and judg ment prevailed instead of this blind, destructive, bull-in-the-china-shop folly. The latest reports from Washing ton make it pretty evident that the Force bill is a dead cock in the pit. The Republican Senators caucussed upon it for the third or fourth time Wednesday night, and the proceed ings developed the fact that there are fifteen Repfublican Senators dead against taking it up this session, which means taking it up at all, for if it is not taken up this session while Reed, Lodge, Hoar, Spooner & Co., have the white heat on, the trump of resurrection will never wake it again.. They "know this and that's why they are making such persist ent efforts upon it, and why Codfish Hoar would rather see every manu facturing establishment in Massa chusetts burned to ashes, the people working for 50 cents a day and eating codfish than have it fizzle out now. It will be a sad disappointment to the conspirators, and poor Hoar will be real sad, but as Reed has the Kit tery navy yard fixed up all all right has chances for re-election are pretty fair, so he can worry through it. STATE TOPICS. In his address at the meeting of the State Farmers' Alliance in Asheville, President Carr gave some facts show ing the remarkable growth of the order in this State. He says: "At a bantling age at our first (Rock ingham) meeting we numbered eight county and one hundred and thirty-two subordinate alliances. At our second meeting (in Raleigh) we had flfty-two county and one thousand and eighteen subordinate alliances. At our third (Fayetteville) eighty-nine county and one thousand eight hundred and sixteen subordinate alliances, with an actual membership of sixty-five thousand. To day we have a total of ninety-five county and two thousand one hundred and forty-seven subordinate alliances con taining an approximate membership of ninety thousand, with every county in the State organized save Dare. Not withstanding this applications for new charters are constantly being received and the work goe3 bravely on, with ao increasing demand for lecturers and or ganizers."

The partition of Africa pro ceeds, and England and France are about to delimit their frontiers, after having provided for a division of a large portion of the northern part of the Dark Continent. Between half a dozen powers of Europe there is not much left of Africa for its origi nal monarchs and chieftains. N. Y. Com. Bulletin, Ind. Senator Bayard returns to practical politics as a delegate to the Democratic Convention of the State of Delaware. It is not often that a man of his rank goes back to first principles, but he sets a good exam ple for other retired statesmen, whQ cannot do abetter service than as sume direction of their parties the conventions that determine policies and select candidates. Phil. Ledger, Ind. -It would not be difficult to show to a man conversant with pub lic affairs that the cultivators of the soil have suffered immensely by the heavy burdens through which the revenue is collected. But the aver age farmer does not see the connec tion. The tariff is an indirect tax, and it requires an expert to trace the equalization of this, so that every producer is compelled to pay his proportion of it. N. Y. Jour. Com., Ind. THE FORCE BILL. A Colored Capitalist Advises the Negroes to Refrain from Voting. A correspondent of the New York Herald writes from Pine Bluff, Ark., August 11: Wiley Jones without a doubt is one of the first citizens in this place. He is the owner of the city's street railway system, and through industry and good jugment has since his freedom amassed a fortune, according to common re port, upward of $200,000. When asked his opinion about the Force bill, he expressed himself as follows: "Being neither a political nor an educated man I do not consider my self good authority on the questions contained in the Lodge bill. Some of them are altogether too large for my understanding. However, I will say, since freedom I have endeavored to be a practical man, striving to have a bank account and a competency am in that line yet. I am a Re Diiblican. as everyone knows, and in our county, which has 4000 Re publican majority, we divide the of fices with the Democrats, and this plan brings about peace and harmony The plan seems to work well, hence I am in favor of a policy of com promise, as in our local affairs. "If I had my way, however, I would see that every colored voter should pledge himself to refrain from voting at any election for five years at least. If our people could be in duced to do so I sincerely believe that our condition could be improved in every way. Too much politics has been the ruin of most of our best prepared young men. We need more industrial schools, more mechanics, more land-owners and fewer politi ticians. "Harrison received 3350 majority in this county. We must have had a free ballot and a fair count here The bill is unnecessary. The effect of the Federal Election bill will be as nothing. It will cut a figure neither one way nor the other in the prosperity of the South. ADVANCE IN FLOUR. Crops Are Poor and Breadstuff's Are Ad vancing in Price. Philadelphia Record. The price of flour is advancing at a rate to alarm consumers, the quo tations in the last ten days showing a rise of 6 cents a bushel in wheat and forty to 60 cents a barrel in flour. The indications are hat prices will be still higher in a short time. Flour which a short time ago sold at $5 10 and $585 is now selling at $5 75 and $5 85 and in some instances fancy brands bring as high as So. The direct cause of the advance is a general shortage in the wheat crop both in this country and in Europe. Russia, which generally supplies a large portion of Europe, will have no more this year than enough for her own people, and the demand for American wheat abroad will be lar ger than the supply. Extended hot, dry spells, succeeded by continuous wet weather and storms, have largely reduced the crops in the West and Southwest. The yield of winter wheat is known to be very much be low the average, and while the spring wheat may turn out better than is anticipated the crop reports so far received are not very promising. Oats and corn have suffered more even than wheat, and of the former less than one-third of a crop will be harvested, while the corn crop will be only about one-half the average. HIS BURNING BRAIN. An Alabama Farmer's Heroic Way of Treating a Headache. Dennis Hammond, a farmer in St. Clair county, says a Birmingham, Ala., dispatch, has lived three days with nearly half his skull gone and one side of his brain exposed, and the attending physicians think the man will recover and a tough skin grow over and protect the brain. Two years ago Hammond suffer ed a case of sunstroke, from which he never fully recovered. At times he would complain that his brains seemed to be burning and he suffer ed great pain. Monday he had a severe attack of his trouble. While at the supper table that night he suddenly sprang up, saying: "My brain is burning up; my brain is on fire!" He ran out of the house and into the woods, shrieking with pain. His family searched in vain for him that night, and the next day he came home with one side of his head crushed and a portion of his skull gone. His brains could be plainly seen through the gaping wound. He was perfectly rational, and ex plained that he broke his skull with a rock, and poured water in the opening to cool his burning brain. Dr. Ash, of Springville, was sum moned. He removed the pieces of broken skull, sponged off the ex posed brain, and the patient soon fell into a natural sleep. To-day he seemed to e. improving, and Dr. Ash thinks there is a chance for re covery, if Hammond recovers: it will be the only case of the4 kind' on record.: PEBSONAL. .

Bat both perhaps mean the same thing. Phil, limes, Ind. "Tennessee Republicans have a fine chance of carrying that State this year." says the Buffalo Commercial. They had a "fine chance of carrying Ken tucky a day or two ago, but the G. O P. isn't "taking" many "chances" this year. Albany Times, Dem. Senator Plumb expressed truth as on a mountain top when he said yes terday that the tariff laws should be amended only once in ten years. But they should then be altered so as to meet the necessity of the situation and not simply the wishes of a small part of the people. Wash. Star, Ind.
