M. lit IVood, of Bertie, a Popu list, who Believes Butler would : "Sariflee" the Senator, Goer nor and AH Way Station State Officers lor the Sake of Carrying Out His New Scheme of a on-Partisan Electoral TicketBntler's Strictly Con- . lledntial Letter to Mr. Wood, Along With the Matter's Sar eastic Reply Thereto, tietslnlo Print. Raleigh Mews-Ohserrer . A week ago news came to thi8 paper that two letters were being cir culated among the Grand Sachemes of the Populist party "one of them giving Butler 8 plan and the other skinning him from head to -foot' Yesterday these V letters came into our possession. They are both printed and addressed in the hand writing of-Mr. M. Wood to a gentleman who shall be nameless here. : It seems that a limited num bers were circulated with a Tiew to eliciting the opinion-of prominent Populists upon the Butler policy, and the Wood objection. .... The correspondence is as. follows: : ' Lewistok, N. C, Jan. 17. Mr. , , X. C. Dear Sir I have receiTed a cir cular letter from Senator Butler, of which. the following is a copy: - Washih-gtok, D. C, Dec. 30: Mr. L. Wood:. Dear Sir: A great deal is being said about co-operation for the 'next campaign and the lines on which it should be made. One wing of the Re publican party is understood to claim that they want co-operation on the State ticket, provided they can have the candidate for Governor, but that they, want three electoral tickets. -Another wing of the party is . under stood to want fusion "on. the electoral; .that is that one-half of the electoral ticket shall be Republicans and pledged to vote for, nominee of the Republican party, whoever he may be, and the other half Populists. This wing is also understood to claim that they want the nominee for Gov ernor. . " Your 'State committee is not ready to concede the nominee for Governor. But there is not so much a principle involved in who shall be the nominee for Governor, as there is with refer ence to the electoral ticket. Your committee is of the opinon that both of these plans as to the electoral ticket will at least cause friction if j not cause worse rsults to our party. To carry out either of the above plans, every Populist in the State would have to co-operate with ". and vote for men who were trying to elect a gqldbug for President, or vote for electors who would vote for a gold mam for President. This we cannot, consistently do. In our opinion, if such a line of fight were attempted, our party not only would not grow, but our present party ranks would be demoralized to gome extent, while on the other hand . it would have the effect of solidifvin the mi o Democratic party as nothing else could. ' '-' Your State committee held a meet ing reentry to discuss the question. It was the unanimous opinion of the committee that the- only way to ob viate the difficulties mentioned above, in the way of co-operation, would be to have a non-partisan electoral ticket, like our Supreme Court ticket in our last campign, and that each.' man on the electoral ticket should be pledged not to vote for a gold man for . President. V. This would not only be consistent but would put us in the position of co-operating for a great and funda mental pnciple, and avoid being sue cessfully charged with co-operating for spoils. Certainly our friends who claim to be against the gold stand ard cannot object to such a line of battle against the common enemy, or otherwise they would be helping the gold-bugs, - instead of fighting them. Our committee wants to know if you endorse this plan for a non-partisan electoral ticket, pledged against any gold-bug candidate or President.': The committee would also be glad of any suggestion yon can make for a better plan. ' Since I have been in Washington I have learned that there is more division in the old parties on - the financial question than I had sup posed, and I believe that . there will be larze accessions to the Fc party frc-iu of the old 'arik var:- i'dent for 1900, but the .'situation, grows more encouraging each day, and if the demoralization of the two old partieB continues as itis goin, on now. we will hare a chance to elect our candidate for President in the next contest. . ' Please consider this communica tion confidential and give no public announcement of our position on this matter till the time comes for us to take official action'. . Please write jour, answej on this sheet "of paper and reiforn it to me here. " ' Very truly, " ' -Maeiok Butler, Ch4mP. P. State ex. Com. To the above letter I have replied as follows: . " Senator Marion Butler, Chairman People's Party ' State Executive : , Committee United States Senate, 'Washington, D. C: .. - . Dear Sir I have the honor to ac knowledge the receipt of your. let ter of the 30th nit., in which you inform me that your committee were unanimously of ; the - opinion that there should be put in the field" a full electrocal ticket, regardless of party affiliations, but -pledged to vote for the silver candidate for President; and that while your com mittee is hot yet ready to concede to the Republicans, the nominee - for Governor, you intimate that you are willing to do so. .1- note your si lence as to nominees -for Congress and the United States Senate, mem bers of the General Assembly, Lieu tenant Governor and other State of ficers and Justices of the Supreme Court; and I further note that my advice is not asked as to anything except as to the electors for Presi dent and Vice President. - From this I must infer that in your opin ion, it" is of no consequence if the people's party surrenders to the Re publicans the . Congressmen, the' United States Senators, the Gen eral Assembly, the Governor, Secre tary of State, Treasurer, Auditor, Attorney General, etc., provided we get the 11 electoral votes for our candidate for President, who, by the way, you ought to know, cannot possibly be elected. In other words your committee seems disposed to turn over our home govern ment entirely ' to the Republi cans, ana leaa tne 1'eople s party into the Republican amp, in . fact amusing our people, meanwhile, 'by hurrahing for what you know they have at heart, but at the same time is, in the next campaign at least, un attainable. Consistency indeed. -Is there any consistency in yielding to the " Bepublicans absolutely, a"d sending to the" United States Senate a Republican who - chirps under the wings of Senator Chandler and is an ardent supporter, of Governor McKinley, for the sake of pleasure of throwing away 11 votes for Presi dent.'- i- V;..' , " , . . : - Why did the .People's-party co-operate with the Republicans in 1894f Because, and only because, the Democratic party had put upon us such a system of elections that it was impossible - to have recorded the wishes of tbe people; and to secure the freedom and political equality of the people it was nec essary to secure fair election la.ws, honest election officers. Why is it again necessary toco-operate wlththeaif To preserve the admirable work of our last Legislature in this regard and thereby secure to every elec tor the right to vote and have that vote hon estly counted. If you believe that tbe Re publicans in full power will coiiduot and manage our State affairs in accordance with the views and wishes, of the Populists or People's party I beg to call your attention to tbe last 'General Assembly, and the con stant and vigilant work of yourself ana the able and patriotic co-adjutor. to whom t very lover of his State should be deeply grateful. -: ; C. The really important officers who have the most power for good or evil are the Gov ernor of the State, and tbe United States Senator. Can it be called "co-operation" to give both to the Republicans.br should it not be more properly called "entering into the bowels of the Republican party i"- - e . I am, for reasons too numeroun to mention. opposed to the Democratic party,, and I be lieve it is to the interest of the State that it should go from under its control. But I am not a .Republican, and am not willing to turn over tbe State to thir tender care. The generosity and patriotic disinterested ness of the proposition of tbe Republican party to co-operate with the People's party, as reported by you, and wbich yon seem to approve of, except as to the electoral tickets strikes rue with admiration unspeakable "Walk into my parlor, said the spider to the fly." Your committee should promptly decline, with thanks, of course; and I beg to say that if it does not it will fail to voice the sentiment of its party. The People's party must have tbe Governor, or the United States Senator, and it cannot be induced to co-operate on any other terms, including of course, an equal and fair adjustment of the other offices along down the liner lf this kiud of co-opt ration cannot be affected we will preserve intact our organization, go into the next campaign under our own bn ner alone, ami let ths people decide betn the tbi ee panics. - I cnmiot uivler.-tand how turning over the' S'.ite --'Vrrtrii;ot, 'hirs, foot aiidUrogocus' 1 to the KfpubiWn j ny, whi e w. ,- t t.!; ! ll-i j.j ,ri:, of i ' ' f r a ; spoils for the rank and file of the People's party. "Your "State committee held a meeting re cently to discuss this question." v7bere i d when was this meeting, and what members were present! Being "recently," it must have been iii Washington City, ' and tbe members present Senator Butler and Rep resentative Skinuer. . While you sit in the marble halls and decorated walls of "Fame's prnod temple," do not forget that in the humble homes of your fribnds and promoters, the toiling, struggling poverty-oppressed people, there reigns supreme and all pervading in their patriotic bosoms the love of liberty and tqul ty,and that they will not submit to tbe auto cratic rule of any man or "committee however exalted. That this is peculiarly so of tbe people of the South, Cleveland, al most universally hated by our people, who were ouce bis ardent admirers, Gorman with his - own party rejoicing in his downfall, and Ransom, the elegint, suave, and courtly autocrat, wilhfew to do bim honor, are shining examples. - Again: Suppose we demand of the Repnb licans that they support a full electoral ticket pledged to vote for the silver candi date for President have you any idea they wtil consent to thus abandon their own party candidate, thereby giving up all chance or hope of tbe rich patronage of tbe adminis tration in case of tbe election of tbe Repub lican candidate for President? Do you ex pect tbem to turn their backs on "green fields and pastures hew" for the sake of- tbe meagre salaries ot the State officers? B'ould a herd of hungry cattle turn from fields of rich clover and orchard grass to luxuriate in oqk leaves and broom straw? Not much. And, therefore, such ultimatum on our part would result in three separate and distinct tickets, national. State and county, and then the People's party "worfld be only A memory and uotbing more. .. . ' - Living down here in the woods of Bertie, .away from the centce of political thought and scheming, and out of reach of the po litical leaders. I have' been wondering why tbero ware Republican candidates galore some of tbem openly canvassing tbe Utatv for the nomination, and all of tbem calling themselves "co-operation" candidates as if it had been settled that there should be co operation with a Republican at tbe head of tbe ticket, while only now and then could I bear, some faint whisper of the possibility of nominating a Populist Governor; But your circular letter to me throws a flood of light on the subject, and I begin to see. We North Carolina Populists must not be dependent on the Bepublicans; we are will ing to co-operate or act jointly with them to secure, maintain and preserve tbe purity of the ballot-box, home government with such safeguards as will prevent the predominance of tbe ignorant and corrupt, a non partisan judiciary, and non-partisan control of our charitable institutions, ' but we will rebel against any attempt at fusion or the union or blending together of things' into oaei.ess, that ouentss being the Republican party. Wo are readyandanxious to co-operate hot only with the Republicans, but with all per sons, regardless of party, color or previous condition of political servitude, who desire the attainment of our purposes. With this platform and an able, experienced and con servative man at the bead of bur ticket, in whom men of ail parties have confidence, we may win without the Republican party; and so, Mr. Republican candidate for Gover nor, if you must bare all tbe turkey, we will bunt no more together, for with you we get nothing, and without you we can fare no worseT" - With highest esteem for bur State execu tive committee, personally, and with much gratitude for their arduous,, skillful, patri otic and useful and unselfish labors in bahalf of tbe People's party, I have the honor to be your obedient servant,. M. L. Woob. If you have no cbjacMon, X "ill l glad to hear from yoa on tbe'iinportant questions herein discussed. There are two things I wish to know as soon as possible: 1. Is the People's party to oe directed and controlled by the people belonging to the party or by the State executive committee? 3. Will it submit to be led into and become a part and parcel of tbe Re; ublicau party? With the earnest hope that the People's party and its priciples may live forever, I am , x our friend. Suistll Farms. Tenants, buy a farm. If you can only get three acres; buy - a farm; by all that is sacred in your household; by yonf wife and helpless babes; by your love of home and hope of future i rest, buy you a home, however small it may be. ; Buy it now while lands ! are cheap. Do not wait until foreign immigrants come in and purchase all of the surplus acres, when you win nave to,pay tnree or four times the present price for a little home stead. . ; " . - ; Things will change soon, diversi fied crops and high price for cotton will soon create a demand for south em lands. Foreign immigration will soon flow to ub then in tidal waves. Let every farmer's son mark him out a home and pay for it before he gets married. Let every couple from the rural districts unite two homesteads with their two hearts and thus let the old chivalry of the south etill dominate the new civilization which is rapidly coming upon us. A county sheriff has become a president in the very recent past. A farm tenant may become a president in the hear future. We are all Americans and the pathway to the highestposition is open to all. VIRTUE IS COSTA tilOl S. Rev. Geo. H. .Hepworth, in New York Herald. Let bim do likewise. Luke, lit,, 11. Some one has said that if he were able to create" a world he would make virtue contagious instead of vice. .', . - A small degree of observation will show that his efforts in this direc tion would not be necessary, for the Lprd has already done so. , i It is jiot as bad a world as the pessimist would " have us think, for the general trend of things is toward the good and not toward the evil, and if you look into the matter carefully you will find that what you call contagion inheres in the pure and noile quite as much as in the . impure and ignoble. If it be true that flaunted and successful vice allures a great many it i3 also true that an honest and knightly life does . the same thing. " The career of a business man who brushes' aside the restraints of moral principle, who is little more than a highwayman at heart, and who boldly robs, under- cover of law, until he counts his millions, is cer tainly very demoralizing. - No one may measure the extent of its un happy influence. It is startling and dazzling and enticing. A propor tion of our jcui become bewildered as they look upon it, and forgetting that there is a moral law which forces a man to pay his debts either before death or after, they, pursue the tactics or their idol." There is undoubtedly an appealing inspira tion in the life of the wildest adven turer, who defies fate, challenges the world, and .by dint of audacity, if not of courage, achieves what he calls success. I have no inclination, therefore, to ignore the fact that there is contagion in a life which is brilliant, even though it be at the' same time criminal. - .;. But I insist that there is just as much contagion in a jrood deed as in PIERCE GUAR ANTEES A or Money paid for Ills Medici nee ia Upturned. Wesntnt, Cnpiah Co., 3u?. " Dr. R. V. PlERC!; : Iar Sir My daughter bus been sick ail her lifo, and the oidcr she r,, srrew, tha worse she was un til s-ie was the picture of oeth : the physioc.ns could not do h? r any frooi.

Have r coram pri-at v v :. r a bad onc-that the holiness of one life conveys itself into another life and produces the same results there. In physical experiences the agent of communication is a germ or a mi crobe; in" spiritual experiences it 'is an idea. " I have heard physicians say that the contagiousness of a dis ease ' depends largely on circum stanees. If you are in a thoroughly healthy condition your system closes every door and the germ cannot en ter. You enjoy absolute immunity from danger. If, on the contrary, you are susceptible, or predisposed to the malady, then the germ takes root and you become ill. - Whether or not you catch the disease is deter mined by the weakness or strength of your own body. Nurses may watch over the dying and never feel the effects of the ailment which saps the life of the sufferer. It is the sameia the moral world. Contagion there depends on yourself also, and to a far greater extent. If you lack spiritual strength and am bition, if your sense of honor is only slightly developed, if- your eslf -respect is at a low ebb, then the exam-: pie of a man who win3 a fortune by , nefarious means like the" microbe of typhoid finds a lodgment in your soul, is cherished and multi- j plied by its environments, until at last immorality has the resistless sweep of a blizzard and tears up by the roots every, heavenly and every manly aspiration. If you had impregnable upright ness of character, if nef ariou3 meth ods, were abhorrent to you, there would be no attractiveness in vicious deeds and they would have no more alluring power than the fire has which may coax you to thrust your hand into it, but which coaxes in vain. There is contagion in good ness provided you are in a condition to receive it. A grand and glorious life rouses you ta imitation. The -reputation achieved by hmest meth-. ods so arouses us that we build a monument to, the. man who possesses it, and tell our boys to go -'and do likewise., T don't believe-that the influence of a pure life can be reck oned, so far reaching, so inspiring is it. It is said that the pregnant wives of the " Athenians used to spend hours gazing at some beautiful statue, in the. belief that something of its beauty would be transferred to the child that av;;s coming into the world. Beauty wa.-- contagions and the little one, shunK-ring u;::id the nivsteries of a i:.v lif.-, f..-:.!.t ly and Godlike mission that it was considered a boon to be immured within those leprous walls and to fill at last a leper's grave. It is a mistake to talk of the con tagiousness of vice and to ignore that of virtue.. This would be a queer world if one could catch the impulse to evil, but not the impulse to good. It may 6erve the purpose of the orator, who seeks a telling period, to tell us this, if he is will- ing to sacrifice truth to -"rhetoric: but the stern and glorious facts give an emphatic denial to thestatement Mankind are nobler and truer and more moral than ever before. Pub lic opinion is more generous and more just. TVe have a larger faith thanT)ur fathers and more true re ligion than has heretofore been found on the planet. "Why is this? Simply and only because truth and honesty and purity and all tbe no bler qualities of character are conta gious and because the contagion of vice is growing les3 dangerous year by year. It is safe to conclude that, after all, this is God's world. For that reason the tide of righteousness should be on the flood, while the tide of vice should be on the ebb, and a little observation - will show that this is true. THE SHERIFF WAS POLITE. A nangliiK In Mississippi That ' Was Conducted According (o Rules or Society. Mississippi Btar. .' " "The most polite man I everlTnew," said J. D. Evans, "was a colored man in- m v county. lie belonged before the war to Colonel White, one of most cultured and polished gentle men in the South. During recon struction days Tom was elected sheriff, and the first year he held the office a white man was sentenced to be hanged. I knew the doomed prisoner and at his request was with him several hours a day for the last week of his life. "The sheriff came in the first time I was there, and addressing the pris oner, said,: "Sense me, Master Bob. I jess come fur jess a littie advice. Yo, see, we ain' neither ob us as used ter ceremonious occations ob dis kin' an' I jess want ter know how yo would like ter hab de gallows f acin' de sun or de oder way.'

"Upon the mora ing of the fatal day, as I went in, the sheriff had the doomed man's foot thrown ever a chair and was blacking his boot," the other one having already been pol ished.

Tom Watson, of Georgia, says that the socialists in the Populist party are tryiug to drive him and men of his thinking to the wall just as they drove Dunning and the National Watchman. lie says that it i3 not his purpose, and never was, "to sub stitute socialism for Democratic-Republicanism," and he "will have nothing to do with any lot of ex tremists who make war on private property." Mr. Watson inveighs strongly against the "stealthy-approaches which the socialists are making to secure control of the People's party and it3 newspapers." He shows that the socialists have thought "to push the People's party fivther and futher, slyly but reso lutely, until they got it committed to their own radical and vicious ' doc trines. - Perhaps they will succed." The Georgia Populist leader says he is a Jeff ersonian Democrat, has meant to do all he could "to restore the gov ernment to its original landmarks," has won his spurs "battling for a re stored and purified Democratic re public," that "the" government of Washington and Jefferson and Jack son is good enough" for him, and he means "to open the eyes of the people to the stealthy approacheswhich the socialists are making to secure con trol of the People's party and its newspapers." This ringing denunciation of social ism by Mr. Watson is the most en couraging voice of the new year. Many of those, not Populists, wrho are "battling for a restored and puri fied Democratic republic," have watched with astonishment, pain and sorrow "the stealthy approaches" of socialism. They have seen their neighbors and kinsmen, being led, "slyly but . resolutely" from one extreme to another until they were ready to follow even Coxey himself in his raid upon, private property and his attempted destruction of the "original landmarks." Since 1890 there has been no socialism too sweep ing, no radicalism too extreme, no Coxeyism too nauseating for a large number of North Carolinians to swallow without a wry face. Doc tored so long upon the extract of prejudice, the oil of hate, the tonic of envy, some good men have accus tomed themselves to one poisonous nostrum after another until Peffer ism, Coxeyism, sociaism, and even anarchy has found defendeas in a State long noted for its conservatism and devotion to the "old landmarks." In the place of a spirit of friendly co-operation, working to remedy the evils that have come upon the whole country through selfish and sectional legislation, there has come a spirit of distrust, of class hostility, and of envy of the prosperous which today are a blight and a disgrsce to our civilization, and stand as an impedi ment to action looking to better law and better conditions.

Then thanking the young man, put on his hat and was about to leave, when the young man asked him if he should charge the advice, for which the fee was five dollars. The old fellow went into a violent passion, and swore he never would pay. The young lawyer told him ho would sue him if he didn't. So the old fellow went down to see the judge, found him hoeing in hi3 garden, tnl slid: "That young scamp that's just come into town ! I dropped in to make a neighborly call on him, and he charges me live dollars for legal advice"." Served you right," said the judge; "you had no business to have gone to him.
