If Dockery is'to be beliered, "which he is snof,V Ihere'' are two farmerB' organs aad mouth-pieces- in North jCUrolmfl-U-hihiBelf andi the Alliance, they don't agree. From his own showing be! is a mighty Alliance man and a powerful farmer. The truth i, be is neither an Alliance man ia. principle, nor- a farmer in praetic , but is - -simply a broken Radioal politician, fraudulently paf ading himself aa farmer and falsely professiug undying attachment to the Alliance, between whom and himself there is a wide gulf yawning and impassable. J - ' ' Bat actions speak louder than words. Let us see how Dockery and those with whom he i associated are acting1. The Alliance in its published platform openly opposes 1 Class legislation. 2. The tyranny and oppression of monopolies and trusts. 3. EsceaMT taxation. 4. Lavish expenditure of public money. . : - 5. Protection o" protection's sake, believing that the tariff ought to be reduced to a strictly revenue basis, the heaviest burdens put on luxuries and the lightest ou the nec essaries of life. The above may be said to embrace the vital issues now before tne coun try, and about the position of the Alliance in regard to them there is no doubt. How does Colonel Dockery stand in regard to them ? We will con sider them in order : 1. The Alliance is opposed to clafed legislation, and so is the Dem ocratic party. With Colonel Dock ery and his party, as the' record, shows, class legislation has beeu the constant practice. Look at the "pro tection" given to iron manufacturers, to cotton gods manufacturers, in a word, to manufacturers of all torts of goodf. Look at the favoritism to the bond-holdt-rs for twenty jears paft, at the favoritism to tich men genei'ally aa showu in the rppal of the income tax, a tax that the Alliance expressly demnds shall be re enacted And jet Colonel Dockery pretends to be a great Alliance man so much in love with: it, its principles and its members, he Fays that he could not find it in his heart to oppose one of them for any office he might desire. And yet he finds it in his heart to fijrhj the whole Order upon on of its lediDg principles. 2 Th Alliance opposes t he tyranny and oppression of monopolies and trustp. and so does the Demo cratic party In the last State plat form the Democratic party expremly declares itself ''against the monopolist und in favor cf a juet distribution of capital," and demands "the enact ment, of laws that would Leir equally upon 1 11." The national platform deoUres that '"the interests of the people ate ittrtyed when by uueces-ary t iia tion trusts i ana comDinatious are permitted and fostered, W'hich, while unduly enriching the few tra com bine, rob the body of our citizens by depriving them of the benefits of natural competition. On the other hand, Mr. Blaine, the ncknowledged leader of Colonel Dockery s j party, openlv declares that monopolies and trusts "are largely private affairs, with which neither Mrt Cleveland nor any pri vate citizen hvs anparticular right to interfere." And jet Colonel Dockery, who vo ted for Mr. Biaine four years ago and would be his supporter again to cay if he was a candidate, parades himself before the people as a farmer and the special friend to farmers, end boasts of being a member of the Alliance ! Was the tyranny and oppression of monopolies and trusts ever great. ar th m it is to-day? Kemember the coffee trust. It has not been twelve months since -even well to-do families felt obliged to stint themselves in coffee bcause the trust "had raised the price till they were no longer able to pay it. Look at the sugar trust. Look at the cotton bagging trust. And yet we are told that neither the President or any private citizen has any particular right to in terfere with these monopolies and truets. Perhaps, however, "it will turn oat that a Democratic Congress has a vety particular tight to inter fere in the matter! We advise our Alliance friends to look well after Colonel Dockery and such members, if, indeed, they be ''bona fide" mem bers. Dangerous members they be who publicly oppose the vital princi ples of the Order to wnicn tney be lone: that is to say, unless a house may be divided against itself with out danger of failing. 3. The Alliance opposes exces sive taxation. The Democratic party does so, too, and in its platforms declares that ''unnecessary taxat on is unjust taxation," How is it with the Radical party on this point? Under Radical legislation the gov ernment is to-day collecting some $10,000,000 a month in the shape of taxes, more than js needed for its uses; Dot it must do coiieccea, ior we law is upon the statute book, placed there by a Radical Congress, and muct be obeyed. If the collection of more than $120,000,000 a year over and above the needs of tht gov ernment be not excessive taxation, what amount can be called excessive? And yet the Radical party justifies the legislation, and so does Colonel Dockery; indeed, the Colonel is proud of It as "wise and beueficieot legisla tion;" that is, if he is to be believed in what he says in his letter of ac ceptance ' And all this time - Dockery- is the farmer's friend and' au humble, de voted member of the Alliance: that is to say, if he is to be believed ! Oi Luourse, however, no man, who boasts toat the legislation wtucu force tne collection o$lQ?OOOjOO0 of taxes a month more than the government needs is wise and beneticient, can be either an honest member of the A li ance or a truth-teiling one. ' 4. The Alliance?' oppose a lavish expenditure of the public monoy. S doos the Democratic party, at its record shows. The record of the Radical party, on the other hand, shows expenditures lavish beyond belief almost Everybody kno.vs bow it was in the State when that :arty had control of a flairs. Nor was it much better at Washington But they are not at all ashamed of their record, for in their last nation al platform they set forth a schedule of appropriations to be made when they in power that is truly appalling. Here is the list of appropriations: "F.r the early rebuilding of our navy for the construction of coast fortifications and other approved modern means of defense for the protection of our defenceless harbors ; and cities; for the payment of just pensions to our soldier; for necessary works of national impor tance in the improvement cf the har bors and channels of internal or coastwise and foreign commerce; for the encouragement of the shipping interest of the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific otates, as well as for payment of the maturing public debt." Will that be a lavish expenditure of public money or nol? We rather think it will, and yet that is wh it Coiocel Dockery and his party ara in favor of. How, then can he bo a member of the Alliance in good stand- ing? Can a man peiong to au tn aer be a member in good tancing and fight its vital principles at every turn? The Alliance says publicly it is op posed to lavish expenditures of the public money. Colonel Dockery, however, who claims to be a member, is in favor of entering upon the ex penditure of untold millious, millions upon millioDS, the end of which no child now born will see, and yet has the assurance to claim to be a mem ber of the Alliance! Whit a con tempt he must have for the under standings of the men he thus seeks to deceive! 6 The Alliance "opposes protec tion for protection's ske ', believes that the tariff ought to be reduced to a strictly revenue basis us fur pos sible, and that when auy di crimina tion is made it ought to be in favor of the neoes8irie8 of life and against uxuries. This is every-day tulk of Democrats and is to be found in their platform?, both State and Na- sional, as fain-liar as household words. Let us see how the Radio ds talk about it. The State platform adopt ed at Raleigh the 24th of last May declares the tariff "should be so ad justed as to protect American indus try and labor. Tne .National plat form adopted at Chicago the 2lst of tant Jane says "we are uncompro minsingly in favor of the American syt-tem of protection, The protective system must oe maintain ed." How any man can stand on the Radical tariff platforms, as Colonel Dookerv does avowedly, and say he is an.hones t, true son of the Alliance pasBeth all understanding. (Jan there be a greater variance, a wider difference than there is between the Alliance and the Radical party in the matter of tariff and tat iff reform And yet if Oliver Dockery be an Al liance man he has straddled the vawnine crulf between them! Is it possidle tor mortal man to sirauaie that gulf, to bridge that chasm? Is it nosbiole for mortal men to shake r z .. , . . , hands across it, mncn let-s to siraa die it? What a contempt he must have fur the understandings of men whom he seeks to cheat with such chaff ! I be matter is too p'ain for argument. and we conclude as we began, that Oliver Dockery is neither an Alliance mati in principle nor a farmer in practice, but a bioken-down Ridical politician, attempting by his accus tomed art to deceive the people. Faith aud Works. She was eight-years old, and lived in the country; she had started one day rather late to sch k1 with anoth er "lit-le girl about her own age. On their way tbey caught a glympse of a clock dial through an open door: it lacked five minutes of hip. "Oh, dear 1" exclaimed the pious little girl, "if s five minutes of nine, and we'll be late to school " "I'm afraid we will." "Jennie,' said the pious little girl, impressively, "I'll tell you what we must do; we'll kneel right down here aud pray that we won't be late." "H'm ! " said the other, "I guess we,d better skin right along and pray as we go." They "skon" and got there. AVoBua!

We entered the building, turned to the left, and in a little office gave , i our names ana residence, ana rc ceivad a ticket which admitted us to everything. Then we found the con cert room. It is a magnificent salon, containing six hundred velvet cush ioned seats; is brilliantly ligtuted, and the walls and ceiling are adorn ed with carvings and frescoes. The orcuestra, of eighty members, is con sidered one of the finest in Europe After listening to the first part of a delightful musical programme we did what everybody does during the intermission took our way through a side door into the rooms where they "play" (nobody ever gambles in Europe). Here we saw a sight not soon to be forgotten. There are three large rooms, the first two con taining six tables with sitting acouio dation for thirty at each. At these tables they play roulette, and five franca is the lowed stake, though many plav for gold. At each- turn of the wheel, the croupiers, call oat : "Messieurs, faites vos leux: and a moment later:, "Rieu nevapius." The silver and gold is showered down upon the table from all sides, and then after the . ball, which is epun swiftly around, has settled, the crou piers call out the number- OS which it rests. The croupiers,1'-with" long rakes, first rake in the money belong iner to the tables, and then the- win ners eagerly take in what iS'ietk for them. Bu, these tables are Hot So terrible as one in the further est room, at which "Trente etQuarauU" is played, and the lowest stake is a Napoleon, or tweuty franc. 'There were about' thirty sitting at this table, and it was a Btudy to examine their faces. You will uote a pecu iar expression which eeems common to aIl a s rt of strained look about the eyes, and I have even seen the look of hunger in the pincLie j lines about the mouih.

By her sidd wajS a fair :;e 1 young fifirl who seemed not more nuaii eighteen years of age, and who was losing and gaining large sums without ohanging countenance, and with the equanimity of an old gambler. One youug man came up to the table and carelessly threw down a five hun dred franc note; a moment after he took it up with another five hundred added to it. But the majority are losers, for .the company takes fifty thousand dollars a day as its profits. The Prince of Monaco receives from them a sum of five hundred thousand dollars a year for the priv ilege. He will probably be well paid in the next world, if not in this, for obtaining his income from such a hell on earth. The statistics show that there were fifty suicides at Monte-Carlo during the last quarter, so that one almost feels nervous in passing through tbegardens at night, for fear of receiving a ett ay shot by mistake. Tne whole atmosphere of the place is permeated with gambling, and even at the best hotels one hears the guest s telling at the table d'hote dinner of how much they had won durjng the day. There was a young American, about twenty years of age, Stopping at this hotel, who had ne o? of 4 won eighty thousand franco in ;i few weeks, and he was s'aymg a little "lorit-er to."f ea if he could win just a 1itrles -more.

We are told on good authority by countryman (The Study of the En glish Language, by A. D. Dorney. p. 15) that some of the laborers in his parish had not 300 words in their in their vocabulary. A well-educated person in England who has been at a public school and at the university, who reads his Bible, bis Shakespeare, the Times and all the books of Mu die's Ii'bi ary, seldom rises more than 3,000 or 4,000 words in actual con eonversattOD. Accurate thinkers and close reaaoners, who avoid vague and general expressions and wait till they find the word that exactly fit-t their meaning, employ a larger stock, and eloquent speakers may rise to a com mand of 10 000. The Hebrew Tes tament says all it has to say with 5,642 words; Milton's works are built up with 8,000, and bhakespeare who displayed a greater variety of expression than any writer, produce ! all his plays with about 15,000 words Max Muller.
