ERIDAY, MARCH 18, 1892!
It is laid that nearly sixty members ot
the democratic party in congres wish to
speak on the free wool bill. This is at
least 6fty too many. The thing to do is
t pass the free wool hill and go on at
once to the next branch of the McKinley
bill that it to be attacked. Results are
what the democratic party now needs,
not speeches.
The New York World puts Represent
atire Hemphill down as a North Caro
linian and quotes him as saying North
Carolina delegates to the national con
vention will go uninstructed. The pos
session of that very useful work of refer
ence the World Almanac would have
saved the World that blunder. Hemphill
is from South Carolina.
The April number of The Forum will
contain a discussion of the Hill and anti
Hill issues in New York (apropos of the
two democratic state conventions to
select delegates to the national conven
tion), by Mr. Frederic R. Coudert of the
New York bar, who is the leader ot the
democratic opposition to Senator Hill.
Bearing upon the same subject will be
on article by Mr.. Matthew Hale, o!
Albany, the well known constitutional
authority, on the process whereby the
present senate of New York was changed
from republican to democratic.
HILL'S CHANCE.
David Bennett Hill says he is a demo
crat, and there are lots of people who
believe him. Now if he wauls to prove
his love lor tbe party and its principles
he can do it in one way that would com
mend him to all democrats for years to
come and probably put him in the presi
dential chair in the fullness of time. Hill
can do this in just one way, and we
know ot no other way. And that is by
withdrawing trora the presidential race.
If Hill could find no other reason for do
ing this, he could find one 'in the fact
that he cannot do more in the present
contest than defeat Cleveland the most
barren of victories and the most dis
graceful. Knowing as he must know
that Cleveland in the choice of the gteat
majority ot the voters of the democratic
party.it is difficult to see how he can
long refrain from bowing to public sen
timent and throwing his strength to his
chief opponent.
No act that any man in public life
could take today would so inspire the
party as this; no ather act would be so
fruitful; no other would so solidify the
party and so completely remove all ele
ments of doubt from the result of the
coming contest.
Will David Bennett Hill persist in
playing the dog-in-the-manger act ?
A PUNISHING JUNKET.
We sincerely hope it will occur again.
A Washington dispatch says that the
"senators and representatives who re
turned on Sunday from the burial of the
late Representative Kendall of Kentucky
tell a story of perils by fidd and flood
which beats all previous records of con
gressional junkets out of sight." A de
tailed account of the trip reads like a
memory of a night-mare. These congress
men just out of the enervating air ol sen
atorial restaurants and palatial hotels,
bad to walk and ride 40 miles in rain and
snow and mud. One of the party had to
be left on the wav for a time in a hut
where he was but poorly protected from
the cold and had little to eat. How tbe
others fared can be faintly indicated by
the following :
"At the upper end of the valley halt
way up the mountain the hearse got
tailed in the mud. Tbe hind wheels
sank down to the hub. The front wheels
were up in the air. In tact the hearse
was standing on end in the road with a
sea of mud on all sides.
"Then Senator Pasco, of Flotida. and
the gentlemen of the house took rails
from the nearest fence and built corduroy
roads, and with other rails lilted the
wheels out ot the mire. I numinous con
sent was asked and given to print their
remarks in tbe next valley.
"While the party was struggling in the
mud a native came along on Horseback.
"'Anything wrong here?' he called out.
"'No,' was the sharp and prompt
answer from every one.
"'Then,' said he, 'if there ain't any
thing wrong Here, nave any ot you tellers
got a bottle!"
"Yes,' said the sergeant-at-arms. 'Do
you want a drink
"'I'm powerfully dry,' came the reply
'"Out of Dr. Yoder's grip came a bottle
labelled belle ot Nelson county.' It had
been saved for an emergency, and now
was tbe time to pull the cork. The na
tive put it to bis mouth and rolled his
eyes to the bowling, trosty air above.
The sergent-at-arms looked on in alarm
and sorrow until vftnt ol air compelled
tbe man to let up. For a moment he
rolled the fiery stuff about in his mouth,
loath to let go. Then, with a sigh, he
turned to the doctor and exclaimed:
'"Mister, that must be republican whis
key.' "'Well,' admitted the doctor. 'It is
four years old.'
" 'Four years t Id great God, man, ha w
can yeu wait so long tor it?' "
As we said at the beginning, we sin
cerely hope it will occurs again. Every
raad that is taken to spend the people's
money foolishly should be a bard road,
tull of pit-falls, mud, snow and empty
bottles. Time and again these junket
trips, undertake in an insincere spirit ot
shewing "respect" for tbe dead, have
been denounced. Tbey have been known
to cost the people $120,000 each, with
the result that in almost every case an
unseemly scandal hat followed, reflect
ing discredit on every participant. Dem
ocratic economy and a regard for the
decencies of life should suggest a reform
in this matter.
A vianraceiul Fact.
Psoas the Charlotte Observer.
It is so much in fashian to compliment
judges, and it is done so often when they
should be criticised instead, that a news
paper compliment to a judge in North
Carolina hat ceased to signily much.
HILL AT MERIDIAN.
Some Extracts Front a Capital
Bpeecb.
I seek to make-it clear that to repeal
the McKinley laws, to wipe them off the
statute books, reviving the lesser wrongs
they superseded, is merely to take the
first step toward living up to our unim
paired, authoritative constitution and
to keep in plain sight of the people till
next November the republican crime, the
people's verdict, tbe need of its renewal.
Division even in Missippi is nothing
else but a vote to prolong republican
domination and rtnew that party's life.
The last citadel of republican power
stands now at the mercy of our united
assault. Is this the time to divide our
forces? Is this the time tor the farmers'
alliance in any state to renounce co-op
eration with the democratic hosts of
all tbe states? Is this the time to divide
and separate and split? Gentlemen, it is
madness. Once more to the breach, my
friends. All together, just once more.
The people's victory requires but union.
All together once again, and then it
stands complete. For the people's ser
vants will be empowered, as they can
not be till then empowered, to execute
the people's will.
By unity and concord in our ranks
now we can surely triumph. Unity will
endow with needful power the great
democratic party, today the soleethcient
instrument of reform. Unity will enable
it to force relief from unjust tariff taxes.
Umtv will enable it to restore the south
and make safe and sufficient the monev
ot our fathers, when every dollur was as
good as the gold dollar.
The day of the deliverance of the far
mers of the Uuited States draws nigh. It
is set down in the democratic party cal
endar for the 8th of next November,
if then ngain the farmers themselves
shall as they did in November, 1890, re
inforce the democratic party and em
power us to dethrone the endorser ol
every act of the Billion congress, as vour
help empowered us to drag down the
Billion congress. Alone you can do
nothing but defeat all your own hopes.
MARRIED AGAIN.
Mrs. Cora Morres, a cousin of the
late Governor Scales, whose trial at
Ridsville 111 IS',10, caused such a sensa
tion, has married again. She was tried
for poisoning her husband, and there
was a great demonstration when she
was acquitted. She is a strikingly hand
some woman. Her new husband is a
telegraph operator on the line of the
Richmond and Danville railway.
In Edgecombe county recently, York
Stratton, their father, and his wife went
to prayer meeting and left four children
shut up in the house. It caught tire und
was in flames when it was discovered.
A man burst in the door and saved two
of the children, but when he attempted
to so in for the others the flames beat
him back. In the presence of the crowd
the others were burned despite all efforts
to rescue them.
The board of directors of the peniten
tiary have received reports of the total
number of convicts in the state, which
show that there are 1 004 a smaller
number than at any time in fifteen years
past. Three years ago there were nearly
1,4-00. The directors .ay that there is a
decided decrease of crime in the state.
Only 200 convicts are in the peniten
tiary. There is talk in Raleigh about th
news ol the visit of State-Auditor Sau
derlin to Washington. It has for some
time been known that he is to be a can
didate for the nomination for governor,
and it is said that Colonel Folk and
others urged him 1 be a candidate. It
is s;iid that if S. B. Alexander is a candi
date Polk's friends would "knife" him.
John C. Brewster, of Raleigh, is send
ing to his comrades of the Grand Army
of the Republic all over the north and
west circular-letters apealing for con
tributions to the Conlederate Soldiers'
Home here. He is sending these to each
post, state to state. Some replies have
atreuay Been received.
Newton Enterprise: Last Friday
near Catawba, the western passenger
train caught a woman from Alexander
county in a cut, and before the engineer
could bring the train to a stop the wo
man was knocked ten feet to one side:
but strange to say was not hurt in the
least.
The state agricultural society has
elected Hal. w. Aycr assistant or cor
respondent secretary, and he takes
charge April 1st. Mr. Aver was form
erly secretary to L. L. Polk, president
ol the national alliance, and is widely
uuiuio vn.

the road from the Albemurlc and Raleigh
railway junction to Washington. Work

The negro exodus from Robeson
county has greatly reduced the laboring

state thus atlected this yeat.
Weldon News: Mr. W. H. Day. jr.,
several days ago brought to this office a

A Model to be Avoided.
From the New York Recorder.
Nine thousand children forced to forego
education in New-York city because of a
lack of facilities! Oh, yes; this is a model
municipal government of ours.
Don't Houkev With tbe Snake!
It is stated that a rattle-snake cannot
bite if held up by tbe tail. Would you
like to put the statement to a practical
test ? Probably not; but how often do
you take tar greate r risks? A snake-bite
is not tbe only means of introducing
poison into the system, If your liver is
sluggish, it fails to remove the impurities
from the blood which passes through it,
and deadly poisons aretbus thrown into
the circulation, all the more dangerous
because they are insidious. If your
blood is impure, if your liver is out of or
der, if you have blotches, pimples, boils
or eruptions, "don t monkey witn me
snake !" Take Dr. Pierce's Golden Medi
cal Discovery, the only specific against
all blood-poisons, no matter of what
name or nature. It is sold under a posi
tive guarantee tbat it will benefit or cure,
or your money will be refunded.
