No. 41 dri the Proposed Government Agricur at Warehouse. — ■ • > Washington, May 31.—To B. F, Howard, of Tuskegoe, Alabama, tiSnator Curlise ha« written ■* ffSjthy letter in response to Mr. Howard’s request for the Senator’s , .views from the Agricultural-Treas ury proposition as contained fn bills, before Confess'to provide for asys tern of warehouses for farm prod ' -ducts throughout the country to be operated by the government, which ‘is to issue its notes upon products stored therin. Senator Carlisle says that Howard’s statement that he and those associated with' are hi fa vor of equal justice to all and spe cial favors to none, embodies some Democratic doctrine and had'been strictly adhered to in Congress in the fast twenty-five years; the evils bf which Farmers and others justly complain would have b’een averted . Sind the whole country would now Be prosperous and contented. But says the Senator, the farmers have ^ _-£_*-1,^ -££ x other classes and have seen so much f legislation for the agrandizeraeut oi corporat ion and sy ndicates that then patience is exhausted and, finding ii impossible for the time heing at least to abolish the system which ftos oppressed and despoiled the :greatest industrial interest of the dountry, they are now demanding {hat fairy policy which they have heretofore demanded as unjust and ruinous shall be applied to them or ''father a part of them, for no scheme has yet been suggested that , would : operate, alike upon all farmers. But •no evil can be corrected or wrong righted by increasing its magnitude • and extending the scope of its oper . ations. There is but one effectual reraedy for the evih-which undoubt edly exists, and that is to reverse ■ the policy which produced to. The Senator after rehearing the features Of the proposed Sub-Treasury’ plan and uotiug the fact that the farm ers themselves will pay move .than ... their fair share of the cost of erect ing warehouses, and that the offi cers connected asith them wrj.1 be partisans of the administration in . power, says: . , . ,, xx There are more than 2,400 conn ties in the United States, but not . more than one-third of them, if that many, produce and sell annual ly more than $400,000 worth of wheat, corn, oats, cotton arid tobac ..co, and therefore not more than T. one-third of .them could possibly • a vail.themselves of this plain, if it Weie adopted. It will be seen, there fore, at the outset that it is a plan to compel the government to issue uuu uwuiwuic iuuucj i/uvi ,fit:qf people in rich and productive counties at the expense of the peo ple lining in poorer and less pro ductive ones. Moreover it is a plan - to enable the -unscrupulous specu lators to fake advantage Of the , Jarmers pecuniary necessities, and extort exorbitant prices 'for food from the people who reside in cities and villages, and from people who reside in the Country, but do not, own" particuflif agricultural pro* .ducts. It is evident that no farmer will subject himself to labor and ex pense or transporting his products to public warehouses, auft to all charges wluch he must pay for stor age, handling and taking care of them while there, when he has barns and garners at homey Unless be is in debt and absolutely needs money, which the government is to Wlvance, and if he is in that unfor tunate condition from what source he is after ward to acquire means" by , returning the money and interest and paying .warehouse charges ? In - a great majority . of cases lie will never be able to redeem them, but will be forced to lose the remaining - 20 per gent of value of his products , or sell his warehouse receipts for whatever he can get for it, which will be very little, for it must .be remembered that after he gets his warehouse receipts, he has the - remaining interest, only 20 per cent less -the char ■gea for interest, storage, etc., and .this is all he,dan dispose.. of. He 'will find time rapidly approaching when he must have money to re Mleem his produets or Sell bib small .vui.unnig interest in them, or all •of them he sold at public auction ■ -by the government. This will be golden opportunity of the specula tprs^Yhose agents' s'warm all over the country, ready to take ware' house receipts from embarrassed owners for merely a nominal sum. The receipts are simply a privilege; Of redemption like a pawn-brokers fickct., and the farmer being himself unable to redeem will.tie forced ul ■ innately to dispose of it at an v price ■offered. I do not think that an v considerable number of intelligent people m this country will slm-.e in asking the government to establish a system which will compel them in a large number of eases to saeri- i hce the product of their labors. Sen- j ator Carlisle argues to show, that the annual expansion and coiitrae Ition of the currency, provided for in the bilT, would result in absolutely destroying the ma- ket upon which the farmer must depend for the sale of his crops and that cotton farm ers who' are supporting the sub treasury plan would be an especial sufferer, because the plan in the "fitoi s estimate would close every cotton factory in the country. No such facilities as this scheme will af ford for the control of the markets for purfely speculative purposes have O 1 f n I* Ovie-r n J - -» m - t —.__l *.„.i_ ■ 1 country, and no more perfect sys tem for the oppression of the poor could be devised.' Exact quantities of the product on deposit in the sev erl public warehouses will be known to every commercial and financial center, and to other nations, to pur chase and bold. Receipts couhl ho easily made, especially when they can be procured by the payment of a small per centum of the value of the deposit.” In conclusion, Sena tor Carlisle said: “I have thus given you, as briefly as the nature of the subject would permit some of the reasons why I think the proposed plan for the relief of the furUier would be injurious instead of bene ficial pot only to them and all other people of the country, but- it would be uncandid not to say distinctly before closing this communication that even if it could be conclusively shown that this or any other similar scheme would; be peculiarly benofi- , cial to any particular class of our people, I would still be unalterably opposed to its adoption because, in my opinion, it would; be another wide and dangerous departure from the principles upon which Our polit ical institutions are founded. I It would bo in fact the longest 'step yet taken in time of peace towards the -consolidation of power in the hands of the Federal govern ment and the subjection of the pri vate' affairs of the people to the supervision and control of central and irresponsible authority. You and I are Democats, and as such we believe that the government should scrupulously abstain from all neces sary interference with the personal and domestic concerns of its citizens, and confine'itself strictly to the ad ministration of purely public affairs. It is the cardinal principle of our political faith that the people are. bogt governed when they are least governed, and they are most pros perous and couten ted _ when left to vnw Iii-v ui VUU1 uvvll J UUJ^ meat in the management of their own business, subject only to such' reasonable regulations as: may be necessary to preserve the peace and good oi(jer of: the Community. These prepositions are fundamental and weeniniot abandon them with out repudiating all the traditions of our party and V!1 the distinctions between the constitutional govern ment and paternal despotism,'’ ° Medical Association Officers.

PUBLIC OPINION. Our Cprrespondont;'has the Slues on This Subject. Cyftie-nee. - 111 this locomotive age, is there such a things public'opinion? There is a public and perchance, it" holds one opinion of some sort. And yet is public opinion, public opinion v I trow not; for one or two men shape the opinion, " for States, yea countries, ajid yet' the. •ni«lit".de_8»it ters itseif that it holds its own opin ion. So it does hut it ;s like a -lit tle child holding the reins in his father s hands. Yet forsooth every individual comprising this -‘great people thinks he has opinion and. it is dearer to him than his life drops. What does he derive his opinion from? Certainly not reading, cer tainly he does not evolve it from himself; but just grasps the handle of what some one else has and calls it his opinion, tt you wish to know the opinion of the people at large 1 will give you a test yon caa apply xnd satisfy yourself though you may be Cfiiruminrmn iainrrl _ Ask the people—the masses—the common herd—the rabble.- so to speak.why they celebrate the fourth of July, (make the following excep tion : preacher, teachers and your fcdks.) A sk them to name” in stitutions ( which they help to pay for) supported by their State. Ask them what laws govern them and who made those laws, (Ishall not include this quesion: who is gover nor of your State and how long does he stay in office, though yon would be astonished at how many intelligent voters could not unsever it.) This iS'easy, apply it and other simple questions and learti the »pin ion ot* the people. And yet these sarq.e idle loafers discuss and pass so culled opinions on all questions with an apparent sincerity that would make Gladstone or Edison wince with shame. Pub lic opinion—so designated—is the most unstable, whimsical and fickle thing that exist. The 'Same rabble that cried “liosana” soon yelled “away with him.” A man may be king to-day and de-throned and a beggar to morrow. He may ride in proud freedom on the topmost wave of public sentiment to day, famed and 1 refreshed by the applause of the world and to-morrow lie may be in the lowest trough of the wave withering and torn by the same rab ble that exalted him. Such the instability of human' opinion; such Llie uncertainty of human applause; such the strange freak sof the fick lest of the fickle public sentiment, riuch is the tidal wave politicians and public men ride on. Public opinion indeed! Nevertheless public men have the happy faculty of creating this frothy wave on which glide their treacherous barks. Albeit, public opinion is generally right . Why ? Certainly not because" the public read and are posted—cer tainly not because they know the merits of the case—why right then? Simply because there is no majr.per feet. . There is soineJ,ruth .in nearly any charge you can bring against aiiy oinj. Take the most unsuspect ed man in your State, let him be a pillar of the church, an honor to the State, let charges (temporary ones) the .blackest- he brought against him then the public with its few facilities for the discrimination of truth, but with vast facilities for lying will spread it on eagle), wings till time nor death itself can efface the \stain left on the good man’s name, though he be innocent as the driven snow It is my opinion that this nefarious thing cafled the puhiic will fiave a far greater burden of sin to answ#r for than its victims, T have just said man was not perfect. The world hasseen hutofim peicfectmodMi No man lives up to the golden rnie “Whatsoever ye would that man should doonto you, do ye ever so unto them,” hence there is a shadowy semblance of truth in nearly any charge against anybody. ■ ■ *\ r I am sadly but irresisteibly drawn to this conclusion that ILEs-sres we live it—is a grand farce Tn which the creatures of earth arS 4nero toys hi eacli others hands used at will and tossed side at will forgtt.nl that, there slnmhcrs in them a latent spark of. divinity that cannot be cast aside but at death kindles into atr eternal blaze of glory or goest out in everlasting darkness. The Democatie Newspapers.. lion tit Dctitocrttt. ■ t, ?»' ; k •'Mr' 'has been lifting up his voice again on the subject of the political Influence of the Democratic and Republican newspapers’. ITe made a long speech before a politiccl cluli in Boston the other night in which ho said: — “It would be a. good thing if eve ry Republican in this country would study 'Rowell’s Newspaper Directo ry,’ or auy of the standard kindred works. They would see, taking Pow ell for authority, that while there are 255 Republican dailies printed in this country, with a circulation of over one thousand, there are 820 Democratic dailies printed. They would see that, while the Eepubli wmmvo > crJtiUL UI IU Xl‘JW ell, a circulation of one miliori and a half, the Democratic dailies have a circulation of over one thousand each.and a corobin*'jd circulation—of two million and a half. The Dem ocrats have 1,340 weeklies with a circulation of four millions and a quarter? I think these figures are ail too low in tlimr estimates; hut no doubt they are relafively correct as between parties. Beyond this, the magazines that . support the Democratic party have a circula tion of nearly half a million, while those that support the Republican party,- even by indirection, have less than a hundred thousand.” Haven’t we heard a good deal in the past about the Democratic par ty of ignorance? Hasn’t George Frisbie Hoar been intimating lately in a magazine article that the great hulk of the intelligence and virtue of the country was concentrated in the Republican party? The vend ing, thinking people of the United States are Democrats; the day of Republican domination is over, and Mr. Clarkson’s party can only pro tract its grip on public afEairs for a little while by obstructing educa tion with corruption. Mr. Clark son is too intelligent to expect this thmg to last long, for he admits that the campaign of ' 1892 will be a newspaper campaign, . — If Mr. Clarkson desires to pursue this subject any further we hope he will revise his statistics. He speaks of 1,340 Democratic weekly news papers. The . National J/anocrat goes every week 'to 3,500 weekly lies papers. What their aggregate circulatian is no one can certainly tell, hut it should he more than 5, 000,000 a week. The daily newspa pers which advocate Democratic principles have a total daily cireula tion of more than 3,000,000. The aggregate circulation of 17 of them is easily one-half of that number. Wo refer to the Boston Herald, Bos tmi Globe,- Providence journal,^ Ncir York World, New York Herald, 1 ork Times, New York News, New York Post; Philadelphia Re cord, Philadelphia Times, Baltimore Sun, Chicago Herald, Chicago Tioies, Si'. Louis Republic, St:. Louis Post .Dispatch, Kansas City Tinies and San Erancisco Ex aminer. Probably the' number of newspapers and periodicals “printed every week in this “country which favpx.the Democratic party or. bp pose the Republican party is. more than 4,000,000. That i^ more than one-half of the entire number of people in the United States. . The total number of Republican news papers issued is, perhaps, not much more than one half of that number. The Cabarrus County Convention instructed its delegates to cast a sol .id_ yete. fop Alexander and the Means men don’t like it. They, propose to' ask the District Convention ...to admit a proposition of Mean’s men. The county "will Vote for Judge Armfield for Judge. The •fair way at the primaries is to shut nobody out, but politicians will “capture conventions." They have done that from time immortal and wilPcontinue to do it until the end ®f time. ' BUTTERWGRTH ON TARIFF. How the Farmer is Protected as Re gards the Canadian Products. KxtraclH f'ron Coitf/rtx.sionnl lirctn-il During 1888 we brought'from Oananda agricultural products to the amount of over $17,000,000. What did we sell them ? . About $21,000, 000, and the larger pdrt of it torn and the products that we do not buy from them. To please the farmer of this country we have shut him out of the market where he sold his product to the amount of $21,000, 000, and hept out, as a partial com petitor, nearly $17,000, 000 that we bought from the Oanada side. We have shut out egg:-, and that is pa raded us ail important . matter. 1 made a little calculation as to how that wouldv^dfect our people. We imported $21,000,000 eggs; and by careful estimate that amounts to just .one omelet :t year to each one of our people—one omelet a year. That is all [Laughter.] This committee knows very well that- niy fellow citizens do.not, during one half of Ae year taste eggs at all. Our friends of the committee have not inserted in the hill any provision which would have enjoined upon the hens that they should lay regularly uutijig.colu weather us wel^as warm. [Laughter.] I am aware of the general outflow of rhetoric in the matter of oppress ed labor. Do you know that one third of the menjn the mines, that one-fourth of the men-in the shops to-day are not American citizens, and that a large per centageof them do not own allegiance to our . Hag? [Loud applause.J Tho time has come when we must, concern our selves about American homes and ■American fyosidos. [Loud applause.] Why, in some of the mines of Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York and in many of the shops they do not eveii go on the roster by their names. Mr. Heard—They have tags ori. Mr. Bulterworth - No,'they go by numbers on account of the peculiar ity of their names. [Laughter and applause.] I mention this to my Republican friends because the time is coming when the American boys and American girls will begin to ask whether the queston of duties in certain lines are in the interest Of the so-called pauper labor of Europe or the interest of tho boys and girls horn in our own country. Each ship coining from abroad is loaded to the guards with men who would hot know your flag if they were to meet it in the highway, Your vessels, many of them, are |manned by them, and I feel a little concerned that Something should he done so that our own people shall have a chance in the productive fields. I know that no nation on earth has made such rapd growth in pro ducing agencies which reduce the cost ot production. My. own coun trymen have given to the ovorld, in the last fifty years over 300,000 new industries. Here your men find employment. Here you find redu d net ion in cost. Here you find multiplicalinn of industries. Here you find advantages that ought to result from a wise and judicious jtariff. Citizens and the Census. -Veil* York Star. , The census takers begin their work this morning. It is very ini-, portaiit that all should understand just what are their rights, duties and interests respecting the enumer ation . - -— ' ' ^ The first and chief object- of the census is to ascertain the population of the country and of the different States, counties, cities, vaHagesand townsliips. Under a popular repre. suntutivO government it is all .im portant that the count of residents in all localities be full and fair. " Any place of which the popula tion, is understated will (luring ten years he deprived of its just share in the making of State and Federal laws. In this respect* it is just as important that women and children and aliens should be recorded as voting (dtizitnsi It follows that it is the duty of every one upon whom a census enumerator calls to make sure that- his own name and those of the~memhers of his household are enrolled-. Care should aT%y be taken to report the names of relations and neighbors temporarily absent from their homes. If the local enumera tor misses any one in his rounds, that official should be found and supplied with the omitted informa tion. Defective enumeration is partial.. disfraarchjsement... .. It is therefore the interest -lof every citi zen to see that , the count of his neighborhood is complete. If the record of population bO be correct, the rest of the census is. of minor eonsequenco. There are, however, some questions in the list that are tlse basis of valuablehd,dis tics which Contribute to the honor of the..country, and ,-re undid t< science and indrusties, 'ihc-h-sh uld be answered briefly and without hesitation. ‘ There are, however, in the list certain novel spy questions regard- • U>g physical ailments, debts and mortgages which many independent minded periods will resent as un warrantable: intrusion into private affairs. The publication of these interrogatories, and the storm of popular indignation that followed the iSfur's exposure- of their true character, forced' the Census Su perintendent to instruct Iris subor dinates not to attempt to punish any persons declining'to answer them, lie did not, however, with draw the unjustifiable inquiries, but retained them, backed by the decla ration that those refusing to answer might ■ be punished through pro ceedings by the Department of Jus tice at Washington., This idle threat, made to cover * ari luctant retreat from an untenable position, may be safely disregarded. : Any onevwho does not. wish to reply to any of them should avoid discus sion, and simply ..aay, “f decline to to answer.” This applies to the ijuiiiwn'u 44 iliKI 4.5, ;tmi Irom 2(5 to 550, inclusive. It is well to recollect these numbers, in order to distinguish the spy., qppsfiong "rom others about which there may be in some minds hesitation to an swer, but to which it would be un wise and unsafe to refuse to'i'opiy. It is plain that to aid the gather ing of a proper cc.-.sus is a patriotic duty which no good citizen should neglect, because it is conducive to the protection or his own rights and interests as well as to tiie credit of the country and of its states and localities. Residents not yet naturalized have a similar inter jest, since upon a true census will depend the power of the votes they will cast as citizens of the United States. „ DR.

Confeder ate and Union coinardes marched side by side, and vied with each oth er in honoring the memory of the Blue and the Gray.

There is cause for National grati fication in occurrences like jdieose at V icksburg: ' All the Hob Acres’ "ut in [nations of all the May-Day Colonels in the world will avail nothing against the patriotism thus lisplayed. The country can look to die sentiment of National life and die patriotic impulses that auimnt ;d those who joined hands on this jeeasiotj as its best hope for the fa in re. . The Charleston Courier says,. in' his lnrirl speech at Washington, on Decoration Day, Congressman \ Morse remarked, among other things, that “Tyranny shrieked when Southern Confederacy went lown.” This was perfectly natural ’.bmlnct on Tyranny’s payt, perhaps, in the first flush of a particularly hard-won victory—but why should her sons and friends keep on shriek ing at this late dixy ? - Congressman Morse should consider this question before lie emits another liblpC. - ■ . ■ fsOKfH CAROLINA POLITICS. )r. Mott in Favor of tlie Passage of a Federal Election Law. Waahinyton Vont; , . i I)r. J. J. Mott, of Statesville, N. 0., for many years the Chairman of : the Repubiicari State lommittee, and the acknowledged leader of hw: party in Tarlieeldom, ..was' about"' leaving' the Ebbitt, where he had sojourned since Sunday, 'when a Post reporter greeted him yesterday,.: Doctor Mott expressed himself in* favor of a Federal election law so 'shaped as to be divorced from or" independent of the powers that be in State politics, the Commissioner or supervisor of Congressional dis tricts to he appointed by the Presi dent and to be responsible to the Federal Government only. He* should have the power of selecting: his assistant, a|fd to keep a regilter of the voters of each county-—not for a day or a week or about election? liirnis, but at all times, and'thus be 'enabled to check- fraud. Doctor. Mott said he thought the three're publicans now in Congress— Brdwer, of the fifth, Ewart, of the ninth, and Cheatham, of the second dis tricts would he returned. If the republicans had the right sort of as icimtji, auu suuKiiuiiiiu encourage** ment, they might also' be able to semi a irtemher to Congress from the old first district, now represents ed by Congressman Tom Skinner. Mr. Skinner subsequently said to a reporter that he hoped to be re rononvimited and re-elected. There will be quite a fight at the eoming' election, however, and there are Several candidates for Mr. Skinner’s seat, among the number General William G. Roberts, ex-auditor of North Carolina; ex-Congressman Latham, and William D. Pruden. The republicans have some hope of sending a representative from'the Fourth district to Congress, now represented by Mr. Bunn. Jefferson’s Ideas. - Froni Schouti&r’a History of tJw Vnlledt .* States. Jefferson’s original cbarcter has most powerfully contributed in forming that of his fcountry. Libr ernl education, liberal politics’, reli gion ; a free press America for Americans; faith in the simple words of peace, in science and ma terial progress, in popular rule, in honesty, in Government economics; no kings, no caste, room for the oppressed of all climes hostility to monopolies, the divorce of Govern ment from banks and pet corpora tions; foreign friendship and inter course without foreign alliances; the Gradual propagation of Repub lican ideas on tins Western Hemis phere while gently forcing Europe out; meager force establishments, meager preparations for war in time of peace, the preferece of militia and State volunteers for defense in emergencies rather than national troops and praetorian guards; faith in the indefinite expansion of this Union upon this continent—all this, though others inculcated some of these maxims, too, is Jeffersonism and Jeffersonism is modern America. * * * Ideas impress most though the individual who stands forthem; and in Jefferson was personified, for the first time, the American idea in its full expression against perjudice, timid conservatism, historical ex perience, and the cherished tradi tions of Europe, the French Revo lution, and the aimed potentates of the world.” , A Notable 'Marriage.
