HOW TIUN03 LOOK FROM
OUR STAND I'OINT.
The Opinion of The Editor and the
Opinion of Others which wc
Can Endorse on the Various
Topics of the Day.
We are not now and never have
been a great admirer of Col. Polk
but we do wish to see justice done
him and all other men; and it is
unbecoming and should be beneath
such papers as the Wilmington
Messenger and Greensboro Patriot
to try to misrepresent him by in
correctly reporting his speeches and
imputing improper motions to his
language and actions. Col. Polk is
impulsive and sometime erratic, but
it isunfair and wrong in them to
take advantage of that fact and try
to make jeopIe think that he said
what be didnot, but What they ex
pected him to say. They accuse
him of attacking Vance and making
a rather incendiary and unpatrotic.
speech. The State Chronicle has
set the matter correctly before tho
publie by interviewing such men as
Prof. Massey and others who were
in Greensboro and heard that speech.
They ay that it is untrue. Still a
number of papers continue to make
the same statement as before and
throw in a lot of stuff about splitting
the Do nocratic party. We have
k oked on, heard and read the stuff
on this lino for several days, and
have concluded that it is prompted
simply by the unfriendly feeling
thev have against the Alliance. If
this is so they should have the
manliness to come out boldly and
attack the order. It is made up
largely of true, patriotic and con
servative men and they are fighting
for simple justice. Those members
who would not have done wrong
before the Alliance was organized,
will not now do wrong. Xow m;a k
our prediction, the Alliance will
never split from the Democratic
party, for it is the great backbone
of that party. Its principles are all
democratic and any true member is
a true democrat. Ifunybedy does
ever split from tho party, it will
be those who can no longer bam
boozle nor dectate to the farmer
When the split does come it will be
about that class of men who split
from the party and voted with the
republicans in the last Legislature,
at the time the Alliance stood sqaure
in ranks and fought for honest laws
and there it will ever be found.
The distress of the agricultural
class is confined not simply to the
United States, but to some extent is
felt all over the world, and it is due
perhaps to a great number of causes.
Here in ihe United States it is due
chiefly to unjust laws and specula
tion, but there is another cause that
is general orer the world in its
effects and that is the dispropor
tionately rapid development of in
dustrial life in other directions. The
most hopeful outlook for the far
mer that has ever been presented is
that made by Prince Kropotkin, in
the August number of the Forum,
that by means of scientific and in
tensive agriculture the farmer is to
be the coming man, and wo are on
the eve of a reign of plenty. He
shows how, in some of the most
densely populated parts of Europe.
crops aro grown on poor land of
many times greater value than the
richest crops grown by the usua
methods on the richest land, and he
gives reasons for predicting that we

are on me eve oi a revolution in
agricultural methods. The article

From every quarter of the district

ful store of knowledge, of unusua
ability and withal a high-toned chris
tian gentleman. North Carolina

After a rest of a few months we
tgam write The Cai casianu letter,
jecause I know that thosterling -pen
ile of Samjyson county are interest
d in "Ofd Faigt" and the news from
from Cumberland.
Your correspondent attended the
Congressional Convention last week,
and as chairman of the Cumberland
delegation fought a Green fight, un
til the last ballot, when he cast "
for Grady," which decided tho fight.
Our lioople are very well pleased
with the nominee anil will give him
i rousing vote in Xovember. We
ire Democrats of the "straightest
sect," and don't sulk when we fail
to get our man. The people of the
"famous old third" district will rally
to Grady and send him io Washing
ton. They are in favor of iriving
thi! farmers a chance and Grady will
do all he can for them. It is hard
o understand why a man in this
country can be opposed to the fnrm-
r, lor their prosperity is but anothe i
name tor the prospeniv ot all. As
i lawyer we are for any practicable
mode of relief that can be devised
consistent with the Constitution. As
a good citizen we could not bo other
wise. Reform is the cry and it must
come.
Mr. Marion Butler made an ad-
mirablechairman of the Congression
al Convention, is what wc hear on all
sides. We approve of the declara
tion and can testify as to its truth.
Worjc on the Coast Line extension
south of here will soon commence.
The route is definitely located. The
discaace to Rowland, where the road
U completed to from Pee Dee in
South Carolina, is forty-one and a

the Carolina Central road seven
miles west of Lumberton.
The O. F. & Y. V. Railway runs a

Wilmington now. The business of
this road is constantly increasing.
The F. I. L. I. Gray gave a de
ightful entertainment Friday night
for the benefit of the armory fund.
A novel entertainment will be given
by them Thursday night. The main
features we have not learned. One
of them will be a baby show in the
afternoon.
The Superior Court was in session
ast week. Four prisoners were pent

presided.
The county nominating conven
tion will be held on August 9th, the
primaries on August 1st. There are
five candidates for Sheriff, three for
Clerk of the county, &c. Col. Thos.
II. Sutton, one of our very able and
popular representatives in the last
House, and his fellow member, the
true A. D. McGill, will be returned
to the Legislature, as everybody is
in favor of them.
The census of the city authorities
show that ",")00 people live in the
city limits and 2,000 on llaymount,
making our populotion 7,500. The
city is growing and people are con
tinually coming in.
Judge James C. McRae received a
flattering endorsement for the Su
preme t ourt at the Laurinburg con
vention. This secures him the vth
district, and many counties from
Cherokee to the Atlantic are endors
ing him. He is one cf the really
able iurist in the State, and his
potless character and learning fit
him for that high position. He will
probably be nominated at Raleigh
on August 20th, as the people wish
to nominate a people's man.
A number of the military compa
nies passed through last wcck on
their way to the encampment.
The crops are fine, in fact could
1 ardly be better. That means a great
deal for our people. Now let the
tariff be reformed in the interest of
the people and our farmers, in fact
all of us down in this part ot the
country, will begin to feel like we
are free again.

Our young friends of the Dramatic
Club seem to be weli pleased at the
reception given them by the people
of Clinton, and especially do they
return a vote of thanks to Col. F. T.
Atkins, for the use of his hall. Our
Presbyterian friends are gratified at
the nice little sum turned over to
building committee, and we hope
that the near future will see their
house of worship completed.
There seems to be general satisfac
tion expressed at the nomination of
Hon. B. F.Grady for Congress, and
while we were mortified at the course
pursued by our Duplin delegation,
yet we return thanks to out-side rs,
and assure them that we will give
our largest Democratic majority.
Just at this time our young people
are enjoying sociables to the fullest
extent, and we hear of others to be
given nightly for some time.
The Duplin County Medical Socie
ty met in this place on Tuesday last,
and those members remaining home
are to be pitied for missing such a
treat ; however we have been asked
torequest each member thereof to be
in Kenansville on Tuesday of Court
week.
Warsaw presents the name of Jno.
A. Gavin for clerk of the court, and
in asking the people of the county
to support him, we do so knowing
him to be a man well qualified to
fill the office. He is a farmer, and
a successful one, and not a chronic
office seeker, never having asked
for office.
From all sections of the county
comes the cheering news of good
crops and the raias of the past few
days will add greatly to the pros
pects. Some of our farmers declare
that cotton is now full of bolls to the
top and that there is room for no
more. Correspondent.
