WILMINGTON, N. C. Tuesday Morning, Dec. 16, 1890 A GREAT SCHEME During the session of the Pan American Congress last summer the scheme of the three Americas rail- wa was suggestea ana met witn such favor that appropriations were made by the respective governments interested for preliminary surveys, to ascertain the most practicable j route to follow. In addition to that I it was arranged that each govern- tVI .Tn f n n n r. . -. u .-. I iLitiiu Miuum aypuun x commission, to meet in this country at a later day. This commissiou, composed of delegates from this country, Mexico, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela, Peru, Paraguay Tnd Brazil met last week in Wash- ington. Its duty is to arrange for and Muervi.e surveys ior a trunk; line to connect the railway systems of North, Central and South America. It is understood that after they have discussed and agreed upon a plan of action the surveys will begin as soon as practicable and be pushed with as little delay as possible. When the surveys are completed they will be in a condition to present the scheme in its various details to the govern ments which they represent, and through whose co-operation the work will be accomplished if accom plished at all. It is a grand scheme which if carried out means much for the United btates but much more tor tne countries south of us, for it win oe tor them a new birth. r . t, , . , . -ur. iaine nas taicen great inter- est in it, and while pushing his reci procity idea, has warmly advocated this railroad as an incidental part of the machinery to make it bear the greatest fruits, in other words, the must cucLiive way to Duiid up the commerce between the rhree Ameri cas for which he has been laboring. while Mr. Blaine is working zeal- ously for this and will look upon it as one of the grand achievements of his nuhlir cpr.icp .f it K, r - - . lt oi.um- nlishfd WP rln nnt 1 r.

He entered into it with enthusiasm, familiarized himself with the varied resources of the coun tries as far as obtainable, and fur nished an immense amount of statis tical and other information in refer ence to them which could have been obtained only after great labor and indefatigable research. He wrote and published numerous articles in the press and in pamphlet form, giv ing his views and the reasons why such a road should be built, showing that it was not only practicable but that it could be readily done, with the co operation of the countries interested, as is now suggested. He went fur ther than this and sought the co-operation of other writers by offering prizes for the best essays descriptive of the countries south of us, and the best arguments in support of the scheme which he- proposed. In this way he secured the writing of nu merous articles, some of them filled with valuable information as to the soil, climate, water-courses, forests, agricultural products, mineral re sources, &c, which he utilized and republished for the information of the public. His intention at the time was to submit his scheme to this gov ernment and to those of the couutries south of us with a view of securing their united co-operation in the work, but whether he ever did so or not we do not know. The probabilities are, however,-that the attention that he drew to it by his writings then and persistent efforts for some time since, with the information which he had gathered and published, had much to do with the three Americas rail way project now under discussion and taking shape, the paternity of which is attributed by many to Mr. Blaine. This does not detract from the credit which may be due to Mr. Blaine for the commendable interest he takes in this really great scheme, but to this North Carolinian belongs the credit of puttingthis ball in mo tion long before Mr. Blaine ever thought of it. MINOR MENTION. We do not believe the story pub lished by the Jacksonville (Flu.) Times-Union, to the effect that the third party movement started at the Ocala convention was a trick of Western delegates to divide the Democratic party in the interest of the Republican party. It is true the men who were foremost in advocat ing it had formerly been Republi cans, but we believe they were act ing in good faith, were in downright earnest, and that there was no trick ery in it. The fact is that in the West there is among the farmers and laDoring men who have been acting with the Republican party, a deep disgust for it, and their success in - the recent elections led to the" hone that they could build up a partv of their own, which would eventually carry the country. In this connec A. ' ' 1 . " 1 . iion it may De noticed tnat tanners in Illinois and also in Wisconsin have held meetings demanding the election of farmers to the United States Senate from both of these States, which is simply another phase of the third Dartv movement The leading advocate of the third j party movement at Ocala was Gen. Rice, of Kansas, an inveterate enemy of Ingalls, who has been fighting him for twelve months, and who did as much to build up and strengthen the Alliance as a political factor in that State as any marfin it. If there be trickery in it it is a very skilfully, methodically and deeply laid plot. Senator Plumb of Kansas, Teller of Colorado, Pettigrew of South Dakota, and other Western Senators do not take much stock in the Force bill, and have given Mr. Hoar to understand that it must ret out of the way for more important legisla tion. They have dav. when it mn;t hp pith w f"- i or shelved. Both of the Pennsvl- vania benators are opposed to it, and don't hesitate to say that they will vote against it. Senator Cam eron, in an interview with a cor respondent of the Boston Transcript. shows that he grasps it in its fi-11 scope, says he will vote against it, and gives his reason as follows: I will vote against the Election bill whatever form it may assume 1 am on. posed to it on principle and its details. x uc oou-n 15 now resuming a quiet con- .j.uuuuu.i.v.w icjummgaquietcon- anion. iortnern canita ha; hfn fi,,,,.

When pursuing the questioning further Mr. Harris awrterl that members of .tiarns asserted tnat mempers 01 Congress were State officers, Mr. Evarts denied it, and Mr. Harris called his attention to the fact that , the Supreme Court of the United States had so decided, and that the Senate itself had so held, he slunk out of it by declining to go into a "long debate." He preferred to dis cuss and swallow the bill as a whole without answering disagreeable questions as to certain features of it. Some idea of what the Force bill, if carried, will cost the people of the United States, is given by the state . t c incut oi ociidiur juues, oi vrKaiiscii, in the Senate on Saturday, that Chief a : m.pi c l . c.t. OlipClVISUl IVXCVIUIC, Ul LllctL OLdLC, rendered a bill for $5,053 for pre paring and sending instructions to supervisors, the rate charged being ten cents per hundred words. In ad dition to this there were other items, making his bill for one month's ser vices $6,056. To show how nicely the gouge comes in here, there were 1360 copies of these instructions which were printed, each one of which was charged for as manuscript matter. This is one item and in only one State. With the Force bill in full swing and supervisors run ning the machine in a number if not ail the States, what a nice little bill they could pile up for the tax payers, and all to elect Republican Congress men and Republican Presidential electors. STATE TOPICS. We have occasionally called at- tention in these columns to the sub- ject of tree culture, especially that of nut-bearing trees, such as pecan, hickory and walaut, all of which thrive in our climate; and to all of which the soil is well adapted. The Detroit Free Press, which has been calling the attention of the farmers of Michigan to this branch of indus- try, cays: "If a boy fifteen years of . v ., 1 iji ir r i i - e .i.ouiuoeie ten acres oi iana in Michigan, and his guardian should cover it with hickorv trees the in- T u 7 trees, the in v.-iiC .i tuaL uoy wucu uc .dine iu be thirty years old would be from $9,000 to $11,000 clear cash off his little farm." Hickory timber, of which there isan exceedingly limited supply, is always in demand, and the same may be said of walnut. Both hickory and Walnut are becoming scarcer every year, and the price of each is advancing in proportion. We would rather have to-day ten acres of either than ten acres of the best farming land on the continent. But there is even more money in the cul- tivation of the pecan tree, which in addition to being valuable wouid yield a nice amount yearly after they got in bearing from the nuts which .would find ready sale, if proper selection were made the nuts of the hickory and walnut would also pay we!!. There is money in this tree a:id nut culture for the men who engage in it. CURRENT COMMENT.

A Description of What it is and How it Acts. Medical Record. Lupes vulgaris, of which we are now hearing so much, isan extremely chronic disease of the skin, attacking persons between the ages of two and fifteen. It is churacterized by the the appearance of reddish-brown nodules of granulation tissue upon the skin, usually of the face. The mucous membrances are rarely affected. The nodules start in the corium, but penetrate the connective tissue beneath and the papillary layer above. The disease spreads by the forma tion of fresh nodules at the periphery of the original lesion. New centres fdrm and the old ones may gradually disappear. If the tissue breaks down an open sore is found, covered with yellowish and brownish crusts. Unlike ordinary tubercle, the lu pus nodules are rather vascular. Tubercle bacilli are found in the I tissue, but they are very infrequent, and often many examinations are re quired to detect them. Inoculatioji of lupus nodules will, it is asserted, cause tuberculosis in rabbits and guinea-pigs ; but inoculation of the skin with tubercle will not produce lupus. ror uui anu otner reasons so uis- tinguished an authority as Kaposi I",. 1 i 1 . 1" denies that lupus is a cutaneous tu- berculosis, although that view is held hv iCnrh anH Kic nnnilc J' chronic as ii is in its ten .
