V. Thurso w Morning, Nov. 19, IS91 WHY IS IT? The farmers of the United States ought to be the most prosperous far mers in the world, but they are not. As a general thing they have lands naturally as fertile as the lands of any country, and ia the knowledge of agriculture and in general intelli gence they are the equals, if not the superiors, of the farmers of other countries. Up to the year 1861, as a class or calling, they were prosper ous. During the war between the States the farmers of the North and of the- West were prosperous, so prosperous that thousands of them who were not subject to military duty were sorry when the war closed. There was a rattling big volume of currency then, paper currency, print ed upon the Government printing presses by the mandates of the party which is now posing as the champion ef "honest money." They got big prices for their grain, pork and beef; ihey found a ready market for what they had to sell because the army took so many laborers from the farms that there was no surplus raised. They paid whatever debts they might have owed in this depreciated, legal tender, fiat money and had their pockets full of it left. With, the dollar in paper they paid the debt of a dollar in coin when one dollar in coin was worth two dollars and a half in paper and thus 'those of them who were in debt paid off their debts with twenty cents on the dol lar and made a clear gain of the re maining eighty cents. One bushel of wheat paid a debt that it took three bushels to pay before the war, and thus they were in clover. When the war closed the farmers of the North and West were as a general thing in a flourishing condition, out of debt and most of them with more or less money to spare. Then they were at the zenith of their pros perity, since then they have been on tie down grade. Returning peace sent about a mil lion of men back to their respective callings in town and country. Then there were more to produce and fewer to buy. Instead of being simply consumers ot food many of these returning soldiers became pro ducers of food, and there were then two producing where one produced before; double the number of pro ducers with a million less to sell to. Then the downward sliding began, which has been going on ever since. Then the farmer began to find him self with more on his hands than he could sell, then prices began to tum ble, and then he began to get into debt, and has been getting in deeper and deeper ever since. Then the mortgage era began, and the mort . gages increased year after year until the tarms were covered with them, and the farm that wasn't covered with them was the exception. Great States like Illinois, Iowa I and Kansas show farms to-day coh ered with $150,000,000, $200,000,000 and $335,000,000 mortgages as il lustrations of the condition of the agricultural States of the West, while m several ; of those States farming lands are worth less now than they were ten years ago." . Who own these mortgages ? Near ly all of therrTare held in the East by capitalists who sent their surplus money West to be loaned. ; How does it come that within a period of thirty years the Eastern States could have absorbed the bulk of the capi tal of the country, enough of it to cover the West with mortgages? Why is it that they should have continued to prosper and grow rich er and richer while the farmers of the country, East and South, as well as West, grew poor and con tinued to grow poorer and poorer? It does not require the wisdom of a Solomon to answer these questions, for every intelligent,, observant per son who has watched the workings of the so-called protective tariff, has found the answer to it, and the only satisfactory answer that can .be given. There has been over-production of "crops, tt i&true, and this has had its effect in lowering prices, but even this over-production is the result in a great measure of the protective tariff. Where before the American farmer had the world for a market, these tariff enactments, intended to be prohibitory, have clogged co'm merce and made our farmers depen dent principally upon the "home mar ket" where they were at the mercy of the buyer who could get more than he wanted and consequently made his prices accordingly low. The farmer had to sell however low the price might be, because he needed money and must have.it. In the meantime the tariff which locked him up in the home market and compelled him to sell for whatever he could get, compelled him to pay the protected manufacturer what ever price he might ask for the pro ducts of his establishments because he was protected from outside com petition and could thus r.ame his own prices. Thus the farmer, while the prices of his products have been going down, has been paying a tariff tribute for nearly thirty years to the protected manufacturers, until to-day the is paying an average of sixty per cent, premium on every protected article which he buys. The less he had to pay with the more he had to pay. While the tariff reduced his capacity to pay, the tribute it de manded from him grew heavier and heavier. Is it any wonder that he became poor,- had to have recourse to the mortgage, and stood on the brink of bankruptcy when the acci dent of a short crop in Europe and a big crop at home brought him some relief? The farmers of the West will pay off some of their debts this year, thanks to the foreign mar ket, but they can never expect to permanently prosper while by law they are made tribute payers' to the manufacturers of other sections. miTOR MENTION. The'Supreme Council of the Farm ers' Alliance is now in session in In dianapolis. One of the live topics of discussion among the delegates present is the third-party whether or not it shall have the endorsement of the Alliance, According to the press dispatches, the "Big Five," as they are called, Polk, Macune, Liv ingstone, Tillman and Terrell, are opposed to it as a violation of the constitution of the Alliance,' and pre dict that the endorsement of a third party would kill the Alliance. If this be the position of the "Big Five" they show themselves to be level-headed gentlemen, for sure ly if the Alliance sought a speedy dissolution it could take no more effective way to bring it about, nor shorter route to it, than by making itself an annex to or sponsor for a new political party This is the position the Star has taken eversinCe the third party was mooted and mentioned in connec tion with the Alliance, and the effect the third party"has had on the Alli ance in Missouri, Iowa, Kansas and other States proves the correctness of the position we took. Alliance men as citizens and as individuals may and should take an jnterest in politics, but as citizens and indi viduals, not as Alliance men. The Alliance and politics will not mix any better than oil and water will. V We made mention several daysago of the new cotton harvester which was on exhibition at the Piedmont- Exposition in Atlanta, with which some excellent practical tests were made in the presence of many peo pie. The Mason harvester, the in vention of Mr. Mason, of Sumter, S. C, was on exhibition at the Augusta Exposition last week, and was sub jected - to practical tests in cotton fields, which, according to the re ports, leave no doubt that it is a suc cess as a cotton harvester. This ma chine has been before the public for five or six years, during .which time the inventor has been at work per fecting the mechanism, in which it is said he has succeeded. -In some of the tests made at Augusta, al though the cotton was dead and dry and not in a favorable condition for picking, the machine picked at the rate of three, hundred and- fifty pounds of cotton to the hour, equiv alent to the work of about thirty hands, and the cotton picked was about as clean as that picked by hand. Whether all that is claimed for these two machines be true or not there is enough of truth in the claims to show that inventive gen ius is making long strides towards solving the problem of picking cot ton by machinery. 3 Washington reports say that the Speakership contest seems to be nar rowing down to Roger Q. Mills, of Texas, and Charles F. Crisp, of Georgia, with the former in the lead as the indications now are. It is claimed by Mills' friends that he will have two-thirds of the votes in the caucus on the first ballot. But these are merely flying reports, and must be taken with some grains of allow ance. The Congressmen have not all arrived in Washington yet, and it is not likely that a majority of them have settled upon the Speaker before they have surveyed the situation and discussed the matter with their col leagues. There are a half-dozen good men mentioned in that connec tion. Mills and Crisp are both de serving and able. The only things to be feared about Mills are his dog-gt-dness and his irritableness. He is quick-tempered and has not sufficient control over his temper to possess that coolness and equanimity when subjected to the test which a man occupying that sometimes trying po rtion should have. The Speakership is a very responsible position and .-hould be filled not only by a very able but very well balanced man. FIGS FOR THE PEOPLE. Plants anS Cuttines to be Distributed Free of Charge. The N. C. Agricultural Experiment Station has issued tne following circu lar, with a request to papers throughout the State to publish, viz: A large number of figs were distrib uted last spring by the N. C. Experi ment Station. Many of these were sent out. by numbers. If those to whom the 5ics were sent will send a postal card giving the numbers, the proper names wiil now be furnished. We can now send out a number of large one-year old plants from the open ground as long as our supply lasts, to those who failed to get plants in the spring. We will also send cuttings of a number of varie ties to all inside of North Carolina who send ten cents to l ay postage on the same, ihese cuttings when received should be set in a sheltered spot, of sandy cr loamv soil, and only the top bud left exposed. Cover during winter with pine straw to keep the ground from freezing. The cuttings should be" placed closely in a row and about six inches apart, and allowed to grow there during the next summer. By fall they will be fine large plants, and can then be set in their per manent locations, when they should be set about twelve feet apart each way. Figs prefer a flat and rather moist soil, with plenty of vegetable matter. Wood ashes and sait seem to be a specially good application for their growth, but animal manures are apt to encourage a rank and badly ripened character of wood, which does not stand hard frosts so well as a more moderate and better matured growth, and is not so produc tive of fruit. All who receive plants or cuttings will be expected to report to the station in regard to their success and the quan tity and comparative hardiness of the different sorts. Plants can only be sent this fall to those who apolicd last spring and failed to be supplied. Cuttings will be sent to all who send the postage, so long as the supply lasts W. F. Massey.

He has heard that Uncle Jerry has threatened t,otakeit out of his hide. Louisville Courier Journal, Dem. We learn from London that the tin-plate industry in Swansea is very much depressed. This is sad, but then it isn't so lively around here a&it was just before the State elec tions. N. Y. Advertiser, Ind. Another Gladstonian victory in England confirms in the most sub stantial way the belief that the Lib eral party will be brought back to power at the next general election. Nine-tenths of air the straws point in that direction. Phil. Ledger, Ind. When Mr. Andrew.Carnegie, speaking of immigration to this coun try, said no step should be taken to interfere with it "because we are get ting the cream of Europe," he doubt less had, among others, himself in mind. He has managed to carry back with him to Scotland some of the cream of the United States, and thus establish an equilibrium of ad vantage. -Phil. Record, Dent. DEFINITIONS OF HOME. ' Some Sentiments About That Place Whioh - j is Loved by All. ' The London -Tid-Bits offered a prize for the best definition of home. Here are some of the best of 5,000 answers sent in : The golden setting in which the brightest jewel is "mother." A world of" strife shut out, a world of love shut m. " ' ; An arbor which shades when the sunshine of prosperity becomes too dazzling; a harbor where the human bark finds shelter m the time of ad versity. Home is the blossom of which heaven is the fruit. - Home is a person's estate obtain ed without injustice, kept without disquietude; a place where time is spent without repentance,. and which is ruled by justice, mercy and love. A grand old mirror, through which both sides of us are seen. That source of comfort which youth does not fully appreciate, which the young men and maidens lovingly desire, which the middle aged generally possess, which the old rightly value. A hive in which, like the indus trious bee, youth garners the sweets and memories of life forage to medi tate and feed upon. - The best place for a married man after business hours. Home is the coziest, kindliest, sweetest place in all the world, the scene of our purest earthly joys and our deepest sorrows. The only spot on earth where the faults and failings ot fallen humani ty are tiidden under the mantle of charity. An abode in which the inmate, the "superior being called man," can pay back at night with 50 per cent, in terest every annoyance that has met him in business during the day. The place where the great are sometimes small and the small often great. The father's kingdom, the child ren's paradise, the mother's world. The jewel casket containing the most precious of all jewels, domes tic happiness." Where you are treated best and you grumble most. Home is a central telegraph office of human love, into which run innu merable wires of affection, many of which, though extending thousands of miles, are never disconnected from the one great terminus. The centre of our affections, around which our hearts' best wishes twine. A little hollow scooped out of the windy hill of the world where we can be shielded from its cares and annoyances. A popular but paradoxical institu tion, in which woman works in the absence of man and man rests in the presence of woman. A working model of heaven, with real angels in the form of mothers and wives. The place where all husbands should be at night. A GREAT ARRAY OF GEMS. The University's Wonderful and Valuable Art Collection. Philadelphia Record. The museum of the University of Pennsylvania has iust acquired the finest private collection of engraved gems in the world. There is the Maxwell-Sommerville collection which has been for some time at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. It contains over 2,000 cameos, intaglios, seals and talismans from all over the world. Every phase of ylyptic.art is represented from the the ancient Assyrian and Egyptian cylinder seals to the curious Gnostic gems and Aztec charms. The engravings have been made in fifty-six different substances, and are, many of them, unique. One cameo alone, a head ot Jupiter Ae giochus, dating from the second century, is valued at 5,000. It is superbly carved on a single chryso prase, six inches by seven, and shows both the oak leaves and the asgis, a rare combination. The collection as a whole is worth considerably more than a quarter of a million of dollars, but has an importance to students of art and archaeology which cannot be expressed in figures. While temples and monuments, with their inscriptions, molder away, these gems remain perfect,Jand keep the records in them as clear as when cut. One of the interesting features of the collection is its illustration of the progress of art through the pe riods of history. A!vlre to iTlotnere. t or Over Fifty Years M RS.

Be sure and ask for "Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syjwp " . - Herbert ' Spencer was once urged by his physician to get absolute mental rest by living fcrr a while in a boarding house in order that he might listen to nothing but cheery and brain less chatter. He tried it, but could not stand it more than a week. - - PERSONAL, Lieut. Governor-elect Sheehan is the youngest man ever elected to that position in New York. . -Rider Haggard's new novel, of which he obtained the materials during his recent visit to- Mexico, will be en titled "Montezuma's Daughter." Quantrell has been discovered again, this time by a Kansas editor, who says the famous raider is still living and "the husband of a rich Mexican woman. Mile. Leonide Leblanc, the veteran French actress, is to marry shortly. The groom, who is just 25, is the only son of a wealthy vsine mer chant. -The Duke of ; Westminster's private secretary, Capt. Arthur Cawley, gets a salary of $5,000 and the use of two furnished houses one in London, the other in Cheshire. . Walt Whitman, J. R. Lowell, Julia Ward Howe, E. P. Whipple, W. W. Story, Dr. J. G. Holland, Herman Melville and T. W. Parsons were all born in the year 1819. The Czarina of Russia, like her sister, the Princess of Wales, is almost totally deaf. This affliction the royal ladies have inherited from their mother, the Queen of Denmark." Everything the Duke of Fife touches seems to turn to gold. Some founders' shares, which had cost him $150 apiece a few years ago, have just, been disposed of by him at the rate of 9.000, or $45,000 cash. Prince Bismarck has finished the first volume of his memoirs, which, however, scarcely brings him beyond the threshold of his public cateer. He has decided that no part of th work is to be published during his lifetime. POLITICAL POINTS. ' Governor Hill should take par ticular notice that Mr. Cleveland and Governor-elect Flower have had some correspondeuce which they decline to make public. It may be necessary for the Govarnor to arm himself against that conspiracy which hides its head by night and prefers a back street, even in the daytime. N, Y. Advertiser, Ind. Unless all current calculation be at fault, Hon. Roger O. Mills, of Texas, will be the caucus choice of the Democratic members of the House for the Speakership. Mr. Mills is honest, able, courageous and deserving. By his long and faithful service he has fairly won the distinguished honor about to be conferred upon him. Phil. Record, Dem. We believe now, as has been frequently expressed in these columns, that the next Presidential election will not be a close one, nor will it be decided by the State ot New York. The issues are clearly defined. The question of tariff taxes will be paramount in every Mate of the Union North and South. East and West, and it is quite likely that the decision cf the natr n will be decisive and emphatic Phil. Times, Ind. a -o m- A Five-Wheel fctreet Car. An improved streetcar, which has been tried in Brussel, is fitted with a fifth wheel, so that it can be readily made to leave the rails and be re placed again when desired. The fifth wheel is placed in the forward part of the car, and the other wheels are then free to leave the rails when there is an obstruction in the line of route. When it is desired to replace the car on the rails the conductor unclamps the guide wheel, and the other wheels are thus made to re gain the rails. This form of car is found to be of value in crowded streets. Klectrle Bitters. This remedy is becoming so well known and so popular as to need no special mention.
