The Opinion of The Editor and the
Opinion of Others which we
Can Endorse on the Various
Topics of the Day.
THE SUB-TREASURY BILL ILLUSTRA
TED. All those who are opposed to
tin; Alliance and its measures
say that the Sub-Treasury
scheme in not practical, but we
venluie the assertion that ninety-nine
out of every hundred of
such pen ous have not even read
the bill, but take their opinions
from a few, who, for feasors
best known to themselves, are
are light'n the order. Xow
the Sub-Treasury bill is one of
the most practical measures
that has ever been presented to
the American Congress and cer
tainly a measure that is Lorn
of necessity. Col. John It. I'.ea
inan, Treasurer of Sampson Co.,
gives the following extremely
practical illustration:
Last year he made nineteen
bales of cotton, lie sold eigh
teen bales during November for
) cents per pound, lie held
one bale. Why did he do this?
because he knew that tho spec
ulators were buying up the cot
ton last fall at their own figures,
and he decided to try to hold
one bale till the speculators be
gan to sell and get himself the
the profit that they would make
on it if ho had sold it then to
them. Why did he not hold all
his cotton for the same reason ?
Decause, like the great bulk of
our people, he was not able to
do so. He was forced to sell,
for he needed the money. Last
week Col. JJeaman noticed that
the speculators had pushed the
prije of cotton up to l.U cents.
He knew that they had now
bought up all the cotton and
were now selling. So he deci
ded to sell the one bale he had
left aud got 11 J cents for it.
In short, this bale brought him
over ten dollars more than it
would if sold last November.
Ten dollars on nineteen bales
would be onn hundred and nine
ty dollars. This much he con
tributed to the millions of the
speculators. If every man in
the county could have held
their cotton till now, the coun
ty would be $50,000 better off
than it is. every citizens of the
county to-day, whether farmer
lawyer, doctor or merchant
would feel the good effects.
How can this merciless grip
of ihe speculator be broken and
the enslaving necessities of the
people be relieved? The Farm
ers' Alliance proposes a remedy,
but the speculator howls that it
is unconstituticnal and imprac
ticable. But is it unjust? No!
Then is it unconstitutional that
we are against the constitution?
Is it practical? We will see
just how it would have worked
in Mr. Ueaman's ease last fall.
If the Sub-Treasury bill had
passed and we had a warehouse
in Clinton, he would have de
posited this bale of cotton in it,
taken a receipt for it and had
80 per cent, of the then value
of the cotton issued to him in
Government notes, which is le
gal tender money. The bale
weighed six hundred and two
pounds, and at 9i cents would
have been worth 57.19. 80 per
cent of this amount is 45.75,
which amount would have been
paid to him. Last week he
would have jone to the mana
ger of the warehouse and order
ed him to sell the bale of cot
ton, upon weigmns: it it is
found to have lost six pounds,
so five hundred and ninty-six
pounds of cotton is sold at 11
cents, bringing SG8 54. From
this amount he would take nine
teen of the 45.75, advanced to
pay for the expense of ruuning
the warehouse, which is forty
six cents, leaving 68.08. Thus
the agent would pay over to
Mr. Learn in this amount, less
the an.ount he had advanced in
the fall, which would be 22.33.
Therefore, after loss in weight
and pa'yiiiir the warehouse rent
he has left, clear made, bv the
advantage of being able to hold
his cotton, 0.89 on one bale,
and on the nineteen bales he
would have saved 189,91.
We were speaking of th s
very illusLation to an intelli
gent man a few days since, and
he said, 'T.ut if you make the
mills pay more for the cotton
then they will charge higher
for their cloth." Hut here lie
is mistaken. The mil don't
buy our cotton in the fall, spec
ulators buy it. The mills are
right now buying cotton at 111
cents, but not from us, for we
havn' any. Our cotton is held
somewhere and by somebody,
and sold to the mills just as
they need it. -When we can
hold our cotton ourselves and
sell it just as the mills need it,
then we will get what it is
worth and do injustice to none,
but a certain class of men who
now make millions in aypar by
speculators on our necessities
will be forced to find another
and more honorable occupa
tion.
e are surprised to see the
following editorial paragraph in
the National Democrat, which
claims to pass as the National
Organ of the party:
"V hatever may be the real
aims of the organizers and pro
moters of the Farmers' Alliance
movement in the Southern
States and these are doubtless
as various as the personal needs
and ambitions of the men who
are engaged in the work no
Democrat should fail to observe
that tho Alliance movement is
everywhere looked on with fa
vor by the Republicans because
of the harm which it promises
to do io the Democratic arty.
The liepublicans think they see
in the Alliance agitation a force
which, will disrupt and perhaps
destroy the Democracy, and they
are leuding it all the sympathy
and support in their power. Let
no Southern Democrat think that
his condition can be improved
by joining this secret and un
Democratic movement."
Tie editor of the Democrat
certainly must be ignorant, for
the platform of the Alliance is
in harmony with pure Jefferson
ian Democracy; and there can
be no conflict between the Alli
ance and the party, save when
and where the party is domina
tsd and controlled by corrupt
and monopolistic influences.
The object and aims ol the Al
liance are just and equitable and
any party that is inconyenienced
by the triumph of such princi
ples should be ruptured enough
to spill its corruption.
FOR JUDGi:.
On the 9th cf next month,
the representatives of the peo
ple in convention assembled
will make a choice of who shall
be the next Judgi of the 6th
Judicial District. e believe
we voice the sentiments of a
largo majority of the people
when we say that honor and
distinction will be again con
ferred upon the present encum
bent, Hon. Edwin T. Boy kin.
Judge Boykin has added purity,
lustre, ability and confidence to
the Superior Courts of North
Carolina. Young in years but
old in wisdom and experience
he has graced the Bench with
dignity, worn the ermine with
becoming modesty, upheld the
majesty of the law, and dis
pensed justice even handed.
Judge Boykin has shown
fidelity to evtry trust in every
political preferment within the
gifts of the people of his native
eounty, (Sampson) but his true
merits were never so well de
veloped until called to serve as
Superior Court Judge. He is a
safe man, he is approachable,
kind and gentlemanly in bear
ing on and off tho Bench.
Justice never lags in its mission,
nor is it abused by a false senti
ment under his administration?.
He has won an enviable repu
tation as a jurist in and out of
the State. The rarity of his
rulings and opinions being re
versed by the Supreme Court
of the State is the strongest
evidence of his legal attain
ments and learning; giving
complete satisfaction, illtide
the day when a less worthy be
called to fill his place. La-

The following letter was writ
ten by John S. Chandler of
Atlanta, Ga., to a citizen of this
county in answer to a letter of
enquiiy about the workings of
the commission of that State.
Who is John S. Chandler? He
is solicitor General of a circuit
court of Georgia and was a dele
gate from that Stato to the
General Quadrennial M. E.
Conference that met in St. Louis
a few weeks since. Head what
lie says:
Dear Sir, your letter to hand,
and in answer to your first
question will say: That the
Railroad Commission of Georgia
is dearer and more r duable to the
people than any other dqtartment of
our State Government.
The General Assembly of
Georgia by virtue of a mandate
of the Constitution of 1877 of
the State, created a railroad
commission in 1878. The peo
ple demanded it, the railroads fought
it. They by their paid lobbyists
and attorneys sought to dtfeat
tho bill, -before the Genoral
Assembly. After its passage
they fought it in the courts
carrying their numerous cases,
to the United States Supreme
court. In all these fights, the
people won. All the evils propliesi
ed, in North Carolina were fore
told in Georgia, they all moved
imaginary. They said every
road in Georgia would be ruined;
instead, every one has improved
There were more railroads
built in Georgia in 1888-89,
than in any State east of ' the
Mississippi river. They tried
to cripphi the commission by
amending the bill in succeeding
Legislatures, until now, no man
aspires for Legislative honors
in Georgia without declaring
himself to be in opposition to
any effort that may be made to
cripple the commission, other
wise he never gets there.
Ninety per eent of the people of
Georgia are in sympathy with
the commission, its objects and
aims, and any man who would
seek to injure it would get bu
one Legislative opportunity. -Instead
of bringing or tending
to bring on the evils of social
negro equality, it has effectually
erected barriers to it in railroad
travel that can never be broken
down or "burned away." The
negroes ride in separate cars
furnished for them by order of
the railroad commission. They
have separate waiting rooms
and other like accomodations,
and I have known but two or
three cases where there -has
been any attempt to break
down this rule by negroes and
they were promptly suppressed
and made to ride in their own
car. They complained to U13
commission who decided that
the railroad that had furnished
equal and separate accommoda
tions for each race had complied
with the law, aud that was the
end of it. There is no mixing
in Georgia, (but only one week
ago I rode in a ladies car from
Salisbury to Greensboro in
your State with two negro men
in as good 6eats as there was
in the car.) Our people as well
as the railroads are now pleased
with the law and as long as IM
is executed uy as good and ahle
ixiuii its uuuirui it, iiuw, j.- itjfM,

competent men and jour cdd-ftS"

no fears of the purely false n$
imaginary dangers stated dv
your railroad Senator. I have
heard them talk that waynliO-
tore, but there is not money
enough in the hands of Jihe
West Point Tenninal Company
to pay a man who Seeks

WOMAN'S SPHKRH
WHAT 31 KX LIKE IN WOMKX.
Thf Chirms f Trne Weiuailinrss and
What MakfH It.
There is a certain something
which, for want of a better name,
Is called womanliness, and it is
that which makes women at
tractive to men. A great many
virtues go to make up this one
great possession, and they are
what men like in women, says
the Ladies' Home Journal.
Men like, In the first place,
amiability in a woman.
They like a pleasant appear
ance. They like the doing of little
things that are pleasant to
them.
They like the courtesy of the
fireside.
They like women whose lives
and faces are always full ol the
sunshine of a contented iniud
and cheerful disposition.
They like an ability to talk
well and a knowledge of the
virtue of silence.
They like a motherliness big
enough to understand the wants
of the older, as well as the
younger boys.
They like a disposition to
speak good, rather than evil, of
every human being.
They like sympathy which
merras a willing ear for the tale
of sorrow or gladness.
They like a knowing how to
grow old gracefully.
They like knowledge of how
to dress well, which, by the by,
doesn't mean conspicuously.
Men are most attracted by good
material, plain draperies and
quiet colors; not by showy col
ors or designs.
They like intelligence, but
they prefer that the heart should
be stronger than the brain.
They like a companion a
who has sufficient knowledge of
the world and its ways to talk
well with them, who is interest
ed in their lives and their plans
and in their hopes, who knows
how to give a cheering word, or
to listen quietly and by a tender
look express the grief which
the heart is feeling.
They may sometimes say that
children are a bore and a nuis
ance, but a man shrinks from
a woman who openly declares
her dislike of them. A man
expects the maternal instinct in
a woman, and is disappointed if
he does not find it.
They likf women to be affec
tionate there never was a man
yet, no matter how stern, no
matter howold, no matter how
repressive as far as his own feel
ings were concerned, who did
not like a loving squeeze of the
hand or a tender kiss from the
woman nearest to him.
''Mamma Are You a Christian?'
Last evening my
little girl
came to me and gaid, "Mamma,
are you a Christian?" o,
Fannie, I am not." She turned
and went away, and as she walk

if mamma ifn't a christiar, I

A Collision in Kail road MattM
Who Will lor ICcgUter of

(Special IVrrespomlent.)
I.mjoi.p, X. C, June HUh.
Mr. Editor: "The Boys" have
been so busy for the hu.t two
weeks that we have not had
time to report.
Crops are looking fine but are
needing rain very much.
Wortleberries are coming in
very well, considering the short
crop. We are not getting any
of the Big Blue, but we are of
the opinion that some of the
candidates will get them about
the time of the County Conven
tion. Yes, politics are warming
up down here. When we boys
want to see some fun in a crowd
we bring up the Railroad Com
mission Bill, and what a discus
sion it starts! It blazes al nost
like a piece of cotton goods sat
urated with kerosene oil. Well,
we don't know what to think
about the question no how. "K"
says one thing, and C, (The Cau
casian) proves the opposite. The
Railroad Commission is a migh
ty big thing. It will surely do
a great deal of goxl or harm if
it becomes a law. Well, we don't
know much about it, but there
is one thing we do know, and
tint is : all we little people must
stay off tho track or wo will got
in a smash up. The Commission
is coming from one end of the
track, and K's special tram, from
the other. It seems that there
is danger of a collision. We
don't know what the consequen
ces will be. But this is a free
country and if the people want
a Commission let them have it,
and if it prove to be a bad dose,
probably, Mke other medicines,
it will not bo as bad as the dis
ease. We have a man that we
think will fill the bill, but wo
are not going to say much about
him, (because he is one of The
Boys.) He can raise more corn,
cotton, peas, etc., to tho square
foot than any man we know of,
and we believe he could raise a
Commission in legislative soil.
If he didn't he would make you
believe it, and that would an
swer just th3same for some peo
ple. Several young mn down here
are goinr to run for the office of
Register of Deeds. Don't get
frightened, Mr. II.; they will
leave the right change with you,
whether you get any cake or
not. Ti;k Boys.

Oi.nSrAKTA, X.C., I
June 2 1st, 1 $90.
Dkak Bno. Stkvkns: I would
not hive you think I have been
unmindful of my promise about
the Silo, but expecting to see
you at Raleigh and give you the
necessary figures and verbal in
structions, thereby saving tho
writing or this, and possibly be
ing able to explain some very
minute detail that I shall be
sure to omit iu this, I will pass
over the growing and cultiva
ting the ensilage crop, promis
ing that it is superfluous
A filo 10x16 and twelve feet
high will hold fifty tons of corn
ensilage, a sufficient quantity to
kep fifteen head of cattle iu
stables all winter and bring
them out in spring in better
condition than they went in.
This quantity can be easily
grown upon three acres and I
insist is the cheapest long forage
that can be produced. Build
upon 4-he surface, excavating
sufficiently, only, for the found
ation, throwing the earth to the
inside. That makes the floor.
Foundation walls of stone or
brick, or a good light wood log,
eight inches high and ten inches
wide. Upon this place 2kll)
bored timbers (if wall of stone
or brick) flush with tho iiusirtcf of
the foundation wall. 'Toe-pail

the outside of these' liiqbr,

and eight feet up, jolr iu
horizontal plates' by cutting two
inches in post anafpirin plate.
