By WILLIAM H. BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C. Thtjbsday Morning, Sept. 3, 1891 ARE THEY TO LEAD? Hon. Jerry Simpson, of Kansas, Senator Pfeffer, of Kansas, and the female orator,Mrs.iease, of Kansas, are the oratoric trio who are pirat ing around this country pounding for and expounding the purposes and aims of the People's Party. Who pays their travelling and other expenses, and the money they re ceive for the speeches they m.ke while drumming up recruits for this so-called People's Party, we don't know, but they are having a soft snap, a regular picnic while the thirr holds out. , T - 5 Honorable Jerry and the per ambulating Senator have rather the advantage of their female colleague for they are reaping the benefit of a 5,000 salary as members of Con gress in addition to what they rake in in the missionary business while she has only one pull. As President of the National Farmers' Alliance and Industrial Union Col. Polk also draws a salary, but not so large as the two gentle men from Kansas, and -as he is kept on the go nearly all the time there must be some provision made for his expenses, which would take about all his salary if net more. While the Colonel is not playing the role of a Third Party advo cate, always coupling the remarks that point in that direction with an if, he is giving considerable aid and comfort to Jerry by securing audi ences for him and endorsing him as he peregrinates through this territory trying to knock the bottom out of the Democratic party, at fifty dollars a speech. That was his business in this State when he held forth at Charlotte, Greensboro and Durham, trying to persuade the farmers that they should knock the stuffing out of the old- parties, which means in North Carolina- the Dem ocratic party, for that's the party that ninety per cent, of the farmers belong to. Whether CoLPolk believes in a third party with an or with out it he is helping Jerry along . all the same, while his paper cheers him up with wood cuts suggestive of the progress of the third party sentiment, ment. Whether all this means any thing or nothing, or whether it is a straight deal or only a game of bluff, we want to -ask in all kindness and in all seriousness if the Alliance men of North Carolina are credulous enough to permit themselves to be du ped and led by men like Jerry Simp son who has no more interest in nor sympathy with them than he has for the inhabitants of China. 1 'When he is striking at the Democratic party he is in his native element, for he has always been a Republican, and if he had to choose to-day between the Democratic and Republican parties he would toddle back to the latter where he would feel most at home. So was Pfeffer a Republican and we venture the prediction that in all party issues in the Senate where .his own party is not directly interested he will be found voting with the Re publicans. Mrs. Lease's politics we don't know. She is probably, for Mrs. Lease. Are two old Republicans like Simpson and Pfeffer, j both personal gainers by the new departure, the right kind of ; men to come into North Carolina to tell the farmers of this State what -they ought to do and what political camp they should jump into ? And if they did where would these Kansas guides lead them to? Out into the wilderness, so to speak, just long enough to give the Radicals, who are: laying low and .saying " nothing, an opportunity to capture the State Government and the Congressmen from this State. They pretend to believe that they can carry States enough to elect their candidate for President next vear when everv man who has j - j sense enough to out of the rain knows that tb;s is The sheerest, nonsense, j In carrying Southern States they are counting on the votes of the colored men who belong to the Alliance. And then after securing a victory by means of colored votes, if that were possible, what would they do ? tote fair and divide with the negroes, elect negroes to the Legislature, to Congress, &c, or humbug them as the Republicans have done, get their jvotes and then give-them the cold shoulder? Simp son and Pfeffer say no, that the ne gro must have a fair show and a square chance, -which means that if the third party gets a tooting in North Carolina it must jrecognize the negro as the equal of the white man. That's what the Kansas apostles and their aiders and abettors are inviting the Alliance men of the South to. I MINOR MENTION. The State Department at Wash ington seems to be at a loss to . ac count for the reticence of Minister Egan, having received no news from him in reference t6 the state of affairs in Chili, save; one cablegram about an unimportant skirmish. This is the more remarkable as the New York Herald, with the enter prise characteristic of that journal, gave full'cable accounts 'of the bat tles near .Valparaiso, and the sur render of that city. That a news paper could have gotten full information about a decisive battle within a few miles of the principal seaport of Chili and the surrenderj of the city, its occupation- by the Congressional forces; See, and the U. S. Minister couldn't get anything is very re markable. But perhaps Mr. Egan was too much engaged in consoling the usurper Balmaceda after his flogging, and helping him pack up to get out of the reach of the other fellows to be looking for news to send to his Government. It wasn't the.kind of news he wanted to send, either, for he has been hand-in-glove - i with Balmaceda throughout this en tire business, and as: far as he could has rendered him all the aid and comfort in his power. Being under obligations to Balmaceda for valua ble concessions out of which he could have made a great deal of money, he had a personal interest in the perpetuation of Balmaceda's power and-inftuence,! and hence it is not so difficult to understand why he did not feel in a mood to say much about it when Balmaceda lost his grip, and took his hasty flight fop parts at present unknown. Mr. Egan is a very good man for Mr. Elaine to investigate and call home, for the new Government ofj Chili will most assuredly have no use for him. i Senator Sherman delivered - a speech in Ohio the other day in which he didn't say a word about the tariff, giving his entire attention to the discussion of financial matters, mainly the free coinage of silver. Maj, McKinley is also striking out on the silver question, and giving the tariff only a passing notice, but they say this is not altogether to his liking as he wanted to make the fight on the tariff issue, which would have redounded to his glbry if he won in November; but Secretary Foster put up a job on him, had that meeting of editors called and resolutions passed that the free coinage question was the paramount issue in J that State and that the campaign 'should be con ducted on that. But there is another' side to that question.' It was ex pected that the protected manufac turers who were interested in the maintainance of a high tariff would contribute liberally to the defence of the McKinley tariff and the election of McKinley, but it is said they have" become disgruntled at this apparent abandonment of the tariff and con sequently show less j interest in" the result of the contest and less disposi tion to chip in to help McKinley pull through.- -As dollars are an essential factor in Ohio elections, this is an aspect of the case that the 'Republi can machine managers do not con template with pleasure. - . ; ' 2 A number of prominent colored citizens of Indiana' who don't .be lieve that the colored man has had a fair show and the recognition due him by the Republican party, met a few. days ago at Indianapolis to dis cuss the situation and see if some thing couldn't be done to bring the Republican party to taw. They talked and- finally 'resolved that a colored man must be put upon the World's Fair Commission, and that an Indiana colored man must -be given the Haytien or Liberian mission, or the Republican party would come up short some colored votes in the election next year. Somebody got wind of this meeting, and tipped a wink at Mr. Harrison and the result was a conciliatory leter from him, which was read in the meeting, in which he promised his colored friends that they would be"properly cared for." With this as surance the colored kickers willp rob ably be content, proceed to vote the Republican ticket as usual, and Mr. Harrison will see that the colored brother is "properly cared -for" as usual. i ! : STATE TOPICS. We published yesterday an ex tract from the King's Mountain JVavs, announcing the discovery of an exceedingly rich gold vein within a couple miles of that town. When the discovery was made the miners were not looking for gold, but open ing up a sulphur mine, so that this gold vein was an unexpected find. In the excitement over the discovery the richness of the ore is probably exaggerated, but if it beone-thirdas rich as it is reported to be, and the vein half as large, it is not only the richest gold find m North Carolina, but one of the richest in the world. Thus week after week some new dis covery is made of the hidden wealth of North Carolina, one-half of which has not yet been told. E00E NOTICES.

It also appears that he is fully equal to the emer gency. N. Y. Advertiser, Dem. : The business of raising fruit near Cleveland, : Ohio, seems to be somewhat perilous. The owner of an orchard has just been murdered by - a party ; who , invaded his pre mises to get his fruit. With Mr. Mc Kinley going about the State preach ing high-tariff morals, it is no wonder that the Ohioans get. their ideas of mine and- thine, a little - mixed. Louisville Courier-Journal, Dent. ; I -The workingman who has seen his wages steadily cut down, thanks to a protective tariff which does not protect him, and the farmer who has robbed into penury by the same ben eficent misnomer can sympathize with young Mr. Vanderbilt in this trying hour when he is obliged" to pay $25,000 duty oh his new yacht. Chicago Mail, Dem. - Secretary Proctor, who has been appointed United States Sena tor from Vermont to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Senator Fdmunds, enjoys the reputation among his colleagues of being "the Lincoln of Vermont.'LHe gets this honorable title because of his clear, practical sense, his sense of justice and right and his naturally serious mind, lightened by a keen sense of humor. Phil. Ledger, Ind. FIBERS MADE OF QUARTZ- Compared "With Their Thinness Those of Silk and Other Substances Are Nowhere. Washington Star. " "People commonly speak of a hair as representing the utmost conceiv able fineness,", said a physicist to a Star writer, -'cut a copper wire can be spun much finer, so that its diam eter will be little more than ajane thousandth of an inch. "With spun glass you can even, excei the copper wire m point of thinness, making it less than one thousandth of an inch thick. How ever; silk fiber is finer by far than spun srlass can be made. Each fiber of a silk cocoon is only one two thousandth of an inch thick. "But suppose that you want some thing finer than hair, or drawn cop per, or spun glass, or silk fiber, you can get it by melting quartz under an oxy-hydrogen blowpipe and pull ing it out. So fine is the result ob tainable that lenghts of quartz fiber can be thus procured many yards long and not more than one five thousandth of an inch in thickness. Yet these are coarse beside others which you can get from the same material, which may be drawn out to a diameter that has been estimated at one-millionth of an inch. Such pipes can be made in tnis way, but they are invisible under the micros cope of the highest power. You can get a notion of their fineness when the fact is stated that an inch cube of quartz drawn out to this degree would go around the world Ooa times. To put it otherwise, a grain of sand barely large enough to be visible to the naked eye would make 1,000 miles of thread. The finest ot such fibers is stronger in proportion to its tickness than the best quality of bar steel. "Such minute figures, however cannot be dealt with with compre hension." Suppose you draw your quartz fibers to the thickness of one fifteenth-thousandth part of an inch. That is comparatively coarse, but if you were to take 100 of them and twist them into a bundle you would produce a cable of the diameter of a single silk worms thread. I do not mean the silk for sewing that is wound upon a reel, for that is com posed of an enormous number of such threads, but of the fiber as it is wound from the cocoon. "It is an interesting experiment to make imitation spider webs from these quartz fibres. The thing is easy enough to do, and it is readily possible to coax a spider from the real web to the false one by the buz zing of a fly. It is not readily prac ticable to make a fly buz just so as to produce the result ain-.cd, but the object in view is accomplished in a moment by making an ordinary tun ing fork buzz against the webb.Imme diately the spider jumps for the imag inary fly,and your purpose is accom plished. Unfortunately Mistress Arachnid Is not able to climb about without great difficulty upon the ar tificial web,-because" it is so slippery. The web will not catch flies, either; for the reason that it is not sticky, as is that made by a spider, but you can make it sticky by stroking the quartz fibers lightly with a straw wet with castor oil, and then the web will capture flies like a real one. "If you will examine such fibers under a microscope you will observe that they exhibit the most beautiful coloring. You can make bubbles out of the quartz, too, which have all the perfection of form and rain bow tinting that is possessed by the soap bubbles blown with a pipe." POLITICAL POINTS. The Blaine boom appears to thrive very well on Indiana soil. It may be that Mr. Harrison wasted valuable time in Vermont which was really needed in his own State. N. Y. Advertiser, Ind. The Virginia Republicans are not such fools as they look, with Mahone at their head. They are -after scalps, and by helping the Farmers' Alliance will probably capture not a few. N. Y. Advertiser, Ind. Charley Foster complains that it is a trifle trying to run the United States Treasury with nothing m it, and at the same time manage the Republi can politics' of Ohio, New York and Pennsylvania. Cincinnati Enquirer, Dem. .!' . . i ' Harrison being anxious for a second term, it's only natural that Mor ton should have the same feeling. If there two heads to a ticket, the Vice President is able to emphasize the fact that there are also two heads to a bar rel. Phil. Times, Ind.
