ROLK,
Tlio cliaiiK"-' in Scnntor Allison's views
rclntiiiR to turiff reform were without
iloulit hrouKlit nliout by tlio ix-ril wliich
fiivironvd Iiuh limt candidacy lor rc-clcc
lion. Tlicn he Ixvamc iitiircsscd with
the fact that the wo)lc of Iowa whom
he hud led so lotiK had chunked. From
liciiiK liliud iidlicrenlH to ihc IiIkIi pro
tective policy of the rqiiihhcmi party
and therefore uilcoinproniisiiuj repulili-
caim themselves, they had been worked
upon hv the most Hitent of all agencies,
sell-interest, and were leaning so strongly
towards the doctrine of thoroiiiih tnrift'
reform as to ;ive promise of Hpecdily x-
cumins Kood democrats. To avert such
party disaster Mr. Allison consents to
unite with them in tiirilf reform. The sit
nation of Iowa is not xvuliar,iiur are its
sullerings home alone liy its ieople.
Vet upon it arc visited some of the heav
iest M.'iiulties attache ! to Vtrict purty
allegiance, lown is n treeless country
uuil must import much of its timber and
lumlicr for building und other puriioses
from Canada, upon which heavy duties
are imposed. Iowa is without iron or
tin. yet heavy duties arc paid upon thosi
articles and their products, lown hat-
ceased to be u sheep raising State, und
derives no advantaK'c from protected
wool; yet like all of us in like condition.
she pays heavy tuxes iu the shape of du
ties on blankets, clothing, etc. Aud bo
on ihioiiuh the whole chanter, ll is
doubted whether anv step towards tarilV
reform will lie taken at this session. In
liict the enormous cNix'iiditurcs proposed
tin-bids nay step looking to curtailment
of revenue. The republican congressmen
nvinore interested iu w inning fnvor by
: i visit expenditures ol the public money
than iu consideriu)! the wants or the suf
irins of the H.iiile. Hut the time is
.'omituj rapiilly when the a.'ople must be
heard and olicvvd. The contract ol con
ditions between colossal fortunes and
more widely dill'uscd poverty, between
the enormous revenues derived from pro
tected invstmenls and the scanty re
turns from the unrewarded and over
taxed labor of all other classes, is leading
up to ra.lie.d reliniii, or to revolution;
"tie or the other; lor the Anicricuu eo
pleuremn yet snbiinjated to the domi
nation of insolent wealth to which tilt
lieoplt-of Kurojie have until now tamely
submit ted, but miainst which they are
mnkinu. resistance. If they reltcl when it
hard to break hereditary shackles.
much more likely it is that the American
IK-ople will hc-stir themselves to action
Kliire their chains are riveted upon them.
Therefore the notes sounded by Mr.
Cleveland will continue to miff in thi-
publie ear until the whole country is
awakened. It wnsthounht he spoke too
soon, and in doiiiK so, forlcitcd his re
lection. His wisdom is now recognized.
and perhaps the most significant illustra
tion to be lound is ill the attitude ol Sen
ator Allison.

A Bright Letter From Oar Local
CorreaipourIe.it.
Franklin, N. C, March 7, 18UU.
Editor Citizen : Since my lust letter
our prospects for u railroad have become
somewhat brighter. Oil the one hand,
we have further developments of tricks
played upon us in the past, nnd so an'
able to gunrd against them in the future.
On the other, our etlbrts have attracted
some attention, and we hope that u wuy
is owned for us by which we can secure
the necessary co-operntion. Two gentle
men, representing certain capitalists,
have within the past ten days been over
the entire promised line with u view to
locating a road. A survey may follow
soon. "Many a slip between lliectipaail
the lip" nmilics to ruilwavs us well us to
other things, and crhnps more. So no
prenictions can yet nc mime witn conn
deuce, and ierhnps it is best not to give
names.
The past winter is suid to huve been
the wurmest ever known here even in
the memorv of thai oldest inhabitant.
Hut gentle spring has come in as if she
intended navmg up ull losses witn heavv
interest. Two weeks ugo Dowers were
lilooiuiiig in gardens and on hillsides.
I 'each und plum trees were also iu bloom,
but uu icy breath from the north has
swept away ull this loveliness.
crv little preparations nave'icen made
vet lor farming. Some few have sowed
oats, but leur that the crop will be killed
as it comes up.
All wuo are interested in the upbuild
ing of our mountain scctiou will, 1 know,
rejoice at every ellort mudc in this direc
tion. Some twelve vears ago Dr. Lucas,
ol Massachusetts, bought proierty in
Sugar Fork township and ucgnn work

that the children ol his workmen may

were only a lew log cabins in the bind
placed in the dilferent valleys iiite re

times are changed. Men air larger and
have lamer rciiuircuicnls, yet the same
old svsteni prevails. The tax iniHisrd
lor school purposes is not large enough
to run tne schools for a sufficient length
of time. The school, for the brief time it
holds, is often unsatisfactory and inclti-
eieiit. Crook have become discouraged.
und while the school usunllv starts on
with u blast ol truiiiK'ts, nud lurge at

not believe that the Hlair bill will help
us. What we need is prosrr legislation
