Tim attack of the Progressive Former on Senator Vance which npc!ired in the last issue of that Mtper has called forth comments from nearly all of the state pa' pen and it worthy of note that not one of them has yet been found that voices the sentiments of the organ which pretends to champion the cause of the alliance. The State Chronicle heartily condemns the article editorially nnd in its local columns has an interview with J. L. Ramsey, the associate editor of the Farmer, who was responsible fur the edi torial. He attempts to crawfish out ol nearly every accusation made in the at tack, and ii' the truth were now known he no doulit rege that be ever allowed it to sec print, Uut the harm has been done. It Iihs gone forth that the Prog- ressivc Farmer, the organ of the alliance, is opposed to the re-election of Senntor Vance and even should a retraction be made It could not be aB widely circulated as was the former. The fact is the North Cnrolinn farmer never bad a truer, more faithful friend than Senator Vunce. lie has made it his business to interest himself particularly in that legislation that would be to their interest and benefit. He is the greatest exponent of low tariff in congress. He has never failed to work for a measure that would reduce taxation; he never failed to work and vote for a measure that would put more money in circula- tion and he is the avowed enemy of the trust and monopoly, the greatest enemy of the farmer, and now he is attacked be cause he writes an honest manly letter saying that he cannot supiort the sub- treasury bill which he introduced by re quest. He cannot support it liccnuse be does not think it will lieuefit the class ot people it is intended to reach. In the let ter he tells how be thinks relief can be brought and there is no man better pre pared to write on the subject than he. Hut the Progressive Farmer cannot sec it In that light and for that reason it comes out in a most unwarranted nttnek on the foremost man of North Carolina. It is as unjust as it is uncalled for. The farmers' alliance is not to blame for the article as it npiicared. The pnivr is the organ ol the ullinncc in the state but surely they cannot endorse so vile n slander on their best iriend. They surely cannot voice the slanderous words ol their alleged representative. It is a pleasure to note that no place does it receive a secoud. The Richmond Dispatch says of it : And the alliance oman of North Caro lina declares war upon Senator Vance! It remains to lie seen whether the good and true alliance democrats of the Old North State will uphold the alleged or gan on such warfare. We do not believe they will. II the Southern dinner lias a better Iriend in public life than Senator Vance we don't know who he is. Then the Statcsville Landmark says: We have infinite faith in the intelli gence, manhood and patriotism of the North Carolina larmer qualities oitcn tested and in which they have never been found wanting and, while we become sick at heart nnd iniliunant at the efforts of designing men to duc them, we reflect again that their good sense is their sure protection against those who, professing friendship for them nnd seeking to stir them up against old friends, are only trying to make tools of them, and that their proverbial conservatism is an assurance that they will do nothing rashly. And so it is with every paper. They have only words of condemnation for the uncalled for attack of the Farmer. Tint Manufacturers' Record ol Inly 1'.' says: " 1 lie past week nus ticen a notcu one for the activity in the organization of gigantic industrial enterprises, the magnitude of which overshadows the many smaller concerns that would oth erwise command much attention. In Alabama, Tredegar lends with n contract for the building there of a great furnace and steel plant to include rolling mill, steel mill, &c., and to employ, when fully completed, nlmut 3,000 hands; Binning- ham has a new $1,000,000 coal and iron making company. Georgia shows for the week a $150,000 ore mining com pany, a $100,000 land nnd lumber com luny, a $:10,000 clothing manufacturing company, n n,ooo,ooo goiu mining company, and $-10,000 phosphate mining company to operate in Florida. At Ocaln, Flit., an $800,000 company has been organised to mine and manufacture fertilisers. Kentucky had for the week a $2,0011,000 iron and coal company and a $.r00,000 laud improvement company. In Southwest Virginia the great activity previously reHirtcd continues. At Rich lands Pennsylvania capitalists will build $.'(10, (i0 iron piic work and at Radford iron men from the Slate will erect two furnaces, a rolling mill, bar, bolt and rail mill, &c, while at Ivnnhoc a $500,000 company will build extensive xinc works. While these great concerns arc being put into shniic the organization of smaller enterprises, such as woodworking milts, brick yards, ice lactones, foundries and machine shops, goes steadily on. In every direction there is solid growth and In creasing prosicrity, based on the utili sation of the unequalled natural re snurrcr of this favored section. The sec ond half of IH'.MI bids fair to show a de gree of activity that would have been deemed almost impossible even twelve or eighteen months ago." CoNOMitsHMAN F.wnrt, of Asheville, says he is opiKiscd to the national election law, but adds: "If ourcaucus decides to pass it, of course I shall not desert ny pnrty." Citizhn May 20.
