In the history of railroading in

nover knowing what befell them.
Col. Bencham Cameron waathehero
of the hour, and alone eaved from
drowning six persons including
State Auditor Kanderlin. There are
two theoiiea as to the cauee of the

that It was rotten crow ties. If it

rather men whose names are on tho
roll, and who keep their duen paid,
yet who are constantly finding fault
witn the older and abusing its
oCieersaud members,who constantly
criticise and object to nearly every
plank in the ;Ocalaa platform. Tho
position 'of such men is not envia

RECKLESS AHD INTEMPERATE.
After tho Alorehead meeting of
the State Alliance, tho Statesville
Landmark spends n bad nleht and
cs and intern pera to languago :
'The election of Mr. Butlor as
'resident and the re-election of Mr.
Biirnes as Secrotary of the State Al-
lance at Moiehead City last week,
would have indicated that the Alli
ance in North Carolina proposes to
take extrome grounds, even if the
oolish bub-Treasury scheme has not
been re-endorsed by a practically
unanimous vote. Mr. Butler is the
editor of the Clinton Caucasian, is
the Senator from Sampson and was
the Alliance leader in tho Legisla
ture last winter. Mr. Barnes is the
editcrof an Alliance pper published
somewhere In Wilson county and
his writings, extracts from which
are sometimes seen in the State pa
pers. Indicate that he is an anarchist.
Whether the purpose is to defeat the
Democratic party in this State or to
pervert it, the efforts of its enemies
eall for active and concerted regis
tancc. The Landmark, for its part,
would rather see the party defeated
than perverted, and herewith nails
its flag to the mast."
If by extreme grounds the Land
mark means that the farmers are
determined to kpep up tho fight for
honest government till relief comes,
an anarchist, ho is notlonefyT and
the Landmark, for safety, had bet
ter emigate. The above paper talks
about the enemies of the Democratic
party. We would like to know who
make up the party. Is it a few edi
tors and politicians who are cha
grined because they can not longer
dictate its policy? " Had rather see
the party "perverted than defeated"
indeed! Perverted, where and how?
Perverted by the people to the poo
plo. When the majority of the peo
ple make a platform or define a pol
icy, it is in bad taste for tbe minor
ity to talk about perversion. Is It
not they vho are perverted out of
barmony, with the , people? If the
Landmark's language means any
thing, ilj is that it will bolt if the
people rule. In. . this event ; there
may be a,, small, third .party in the
State. " J- :.
THE HOPE OF THE COUNTRY.
The Democratic party is suffering
at present from a bad case, of barna
cles. It is being injured and brought
into ridicule by the silly matterings
of "its old, petted and Imperious
leaders, who have become soured
and disgruntled at the failure of their
statesmanship and mad beyond rea
son at the prospect of defeat and re
tirement. If the young men in the
party could have a . chance to come
to tho front with their modern and
progressive ideas the whole political
aspect of tho party would change at
once.
The hope of the nation lies in its
young men, and - the growth and
prosperity of tho nation will be mea
sured by . their intelligence and inde
pendence. These .old political. bar
nacles of ,.the JJempcratic party rrmat

The Alliance brethren and many
friends and fympathiw;rs of Un Or
der prepared for the biggest i.nM-
meeting at Lillinglon on Wednes
day, tho 26tb, that the county hw
ever eeen. A stand, seat and ta
bles were arranged to accommodate
between three and four thousand
peopl?, and fully that number would
have been there hnd it nt been for
tho bpd weather and verv w
tor. The bridges over many streams
were washed away, and hundreds
who ttarted were forced io turn
back. Cape Fear river was so high
that nearly every one from the east
ern Hide of the county was cut off.
Many came to the river with their
baskots and boxes and unable to
cross had a Dic-nic on the eastern
side. Maj. McClammy, Stato Au
ditor Saunderliu and State Preei
dent Bntler were all oxpected to
speak. On account of the bad weath
er the latter only reached Lillington,
where hew!8flB?KJ
- ...
wnom he addressed for au hour.
An excellent and abundant dinner
was served. The colored people
present were given dinner. In the
afternoon, at tho solicitation of the
half hour, entertained them with
good wlid facts and reasoning. The
brethren in Harnett are strong and
determined and stand square for
every one of the demands. They
are standing on nickel, readv ta
mareh on the enemy in 1892.
IN EDGDCOMBE.
On Friday, the 28th, President
Butler and Col. Harry Skinner spoke
at Williams' Grove, in Edgecombe
county, to a crowd of 1,200 to 1.500
people. Brother Cutchen, of Whit-
akers, County Lecturer, in a very
happy manner, introduced the speak
ers. Mr. Butler discussed the prin
ciples, objects and aims of thy Alli
ance, admonished the brotherhood
to stand firm, and appealed to those
outside to Join the Order in its tiaUt
ner discussed the BubTreury plariT
He spoke for nearly two hours. His
speech was an eloquent and power
ful presentation ot the great pia.i of
financial reform. His arguments
were unanswerable, and in him the
Alliance has an able and valuable
defender and champion. We be
lieve there are many who, though
ineligible for membership, know
that the Alliance is right and just in
its demands, yet who either, from
prejudice or from selfish motives,
fight and abuse the Order. It is to
Col, Skinner's credit that he ha the
courage not only to admit, but to
advocate the same, even in the face
of abuse and ridicule from some
members of his own profession.
IN HALIFAX
Co). Skinner spoke at Wimberly,
Halifax county, on Saturday, but
this writer was forced to go home on
that day.

This Writer and Col. Skinner
spoke yesterday at Kittrells, in

der.
TEA ItAlSINO IN NORTH
CAROLINA.
How many people know that
there is a tea farm in North Caro
lina? There is oue aud it is near
Fayetteville. Some tea iuis been
grown in Hafifax and Warren coun
ties. It really will thrive neaily
anywhere southeast of Raleigh. The
plants near Fayetteville are eight
feet or more in height. They are
not well cared for now and some of
them are a sort of undergrowth cf
pines. Prof. Alassey, of the Agricul
tural and Mechanical College, has
just visited the tea farm,, as it is
known. Concord Times.
'. Tea is also raised in Sampson
county. We - have noticed the
bushes at Mrs. Dr. Micks, and at
the Dr. Biizell place.
WILL IT BE?
The Concord Times says:" The
Democrats carried the State in the
lost election by 13,000 only.
The Alliance claims 100,000 in the
State. Nine-tenths of these are De
mocrats. Admitting that the Alli
ance can poll 100,000, there are 115,
000 or 120,0u0 negro voter, besides
the white Republicans.
There are 60,000 Democrats in the
State outside of the Alliance. So
with three parties in the field we
have Alliance i00,0Q0, Democrats
50,000, Republicans 120,000 at least.
Result, Republican maj rity 20,000.
If audi is tho resslt, the .blame
will He at the door ot the 50,000.

zlili, 3, Ye ahull not seo icy fao ex
cept your brother be with you."
This s amine r, having croaked eighteen
of tha United States, north, soutli, eaM
and wett, I have to report tbe migbti-
ettt harrcats that thii oointry or any
other country ever reaped. If the grain
gamblers do not somelio-w wreck thtva
harveeta we arw about to enter upon
tbe grandest scene of prosperity that
Arnorica has ever witnessed. But while
tliis is so ha our own country, oo the
other sl.le of tho Atlantic there arc na
tions threatened witli famine, and tho
most dismal cry that Is ever heard will
I fear be uttered, the cry for broad.
I pray God Uiat tho contrast betweon
our prosperity and their want may not
be as &haxp aa in the landd referred to
by my text There was nothing to eat.
Plenty of oora In Egfpt, but ghastly
famine hi Canaan. The cattle moan
ing In tbe stall. Men, women and
children awfully white with hunger.
Not the failing of one crop for one
summer, but the falling of all tbe crops
for seven years. A nation dying for
lack of that which ia to common ou
your table, and so little appreciated;
tho product of harvest field and grlet
mill and oven ; the price of sweat and
Anxiety and struggle bread I Jacob
the father has the List report from the
flour bin, and be nnds that everything
and get something to eat.1
Tbe fact wua, there was a groat corn
crib in Egypt Tbe people of Egypt
have boon largely taxed In all agt, at
the present tliae paying between 70 and
80 per cent of their product to tbe
govsmjoeiit. No wonder in that tbae
they had a large corner! b ik! St was
full To that crib they eauiu from the
regions round about thoej wivo wre
farjaished ftovto puyir.g for corn In
money; when the money was exhaust
ed, paying for tbe corn in sheep and
cattle, and horses aud camel ; . and
when they were exhausted, then sell
ing their own bodies and their fam
ilies into slavery. "
THE JOCB5TBT TO SOXPT.
The morning for starting out on tha
crusade for bread has arrived. Jacob
gets his family up very early. But be
fore the elder sons start they say aonie
thing that makes him tremble -with
emotion from liead to foot and burst
into tears. The fact was that these
elder son had once bef or been in
Egypt to get com, and tboy had been
treated somewhat roughly, tha lord of
tbe corn crib supplying them with corn,
but saying at the close of tbo inter
view, "Ifow, you need not oome hack
here for any more com unless you
bring sonethlrur Wr than money
even your younger brother Benjamin. "
Ah! Benjambv-that very hen was
suggestive of all tenderness. The
mother had died at the birth of that
eon a spirit coming and another spirit
going and tbe very thought of part
ing with Benjamin must have been a
heart break. The keeper of this corn
crib, nevertheless, ears to these older
eon, "There la no need of your com
ing here any more for corn unless you
bring Benjamin, yoar fathers darhng.
Now Jacob and his family very much
needed bread; but what a ttroggle it
would be to give up this son.
The orientals are very demonstrative
in their grief, and I hear the outwaillng
ot the father n them older, aon Vvr
reiterating in his ears the announce
ment of tbe Egyptian lord, "Ye th&U
not see my face unless your brother be
with you." "Why did yen tell them
you had a brotherr said the old man,
complaining and chiding them. "Why,
-father," they said, "b aaked us all
about our faicQy, and wo had no idea
he would make any oca demand open
us as he has made.' 3o nee of ask
ing me," said tbe father, "I cannot, I
will not give up Benjamin. "
The fact was that the old man had
lost children; and when there baa been
bereavement In a booashold, and
child taken, K xoakea the otlxr children
In the household more precious. So
the day for departure wa adjourned
and adjourned and adjourned. Still
the horrors of the famine increased, and
loader moaned tin? cattle, and wider
open cracked tbe earth, and more pal
lid became tbe cheeks, until Jacob, in
despair, cried out to bis sons, "Take
Benjamin and bo oSL" Tbe older sous
tried to cheer up tbeir father. They
saidt We bare ' strong - arms ana a
stoat heart, and no barov will come jto
Benjamin. ; Well aoe tbH he gets back
again." 'TarewtHP ad the young
xaen to tha father, in a tone of neramed
good cheer. "F-A-r-e-w-e-M T' said : the
eld roan; for that word has more quav
ers ia it when pronounood by the aged
thai) by the young.

TUU WORLD A CUIU-tt, '
Well, my frlenda, tide world U faui
iua truck of sin. It does Dot yield a '
single crop of solid aatlsfacUon, It is
dying. It Is hunger bttteu. Hie fact
that it does not, oannot, iced o man's
heart was well Illustrated in tlie life of
the English comedian. All tlve world
honored him did everything for him
that the world could do. lie was ap
plauded in England fcd applauded in
the United States. He roused up na
tions Into laughter. He had do oquai.
And yet, although many people tup
Xxascd him entirely happy, and tiiat this
world was completely satiating his soul,
he site down and write i "I never la
my life put on a new net that it did
not rain and ruin Jt I never went out
in a shabby coat beoauae It was rain
ing and thought all w ho bad tlieoholoe
would keep iudoora that tbe sun did
not bunt forth in it strength and bring
oever coruientad to tvoc-t a part I
liated, out of kindness to another, that
I did not got hiflfled by the public and
out by the writer. I oould not take a
drive for few minutes with Terry with
out being overturned and having my el
bow bone broken, tliongh xuy friend got
oft unharmed. I could not make a cov
enant with Arnold, which I thought was
to tnako ray fortnrw without making his
Litettl, tliHii m an iocred'ble space o
tiaw I think thirteen mouths I
certHsd fo hhn twenty thooujd
pounds axd for myself oof, I an; per
stxaded that If I wer to set tip as a
beggar ever one in my neighborhood
v-otud leave off eating bmid." Tiiat
was the lanent of the world's comedian
and joker. All unhappy.
. The world did everything for Lord
Byron that it oould do, and yrt m bis
last moment lie aksafr!ond to come
aad fit down by hlra and read, aa most
appropriate to his caaa, tha story of
"Tbe Blooding Heart." Torrigino,
tho sculptor, eiecuted, after montlie of
care and carving, "Madonna and Jh
Child. " Tbe royal fianUy oome In and
admired ft. Everybody that lookwl at
it wae In ecstacy. but one day, after all
that toll, and all that admiration, be
cause be did not got as much compen
sation for hie work aa be had expected,
be took a mallet and dadled tho ex
quisite eeulpture into at om. The world
la ioor eompensation, poor satisfactioa,
poor solace. Famine, famine, m aU
the earth; not for seven years, but for
six thousand.
But, blessed be God titere is a great
eorncrib. The Lord built it It is in
another land. It is a large place. An
angel ooco measured it, and as far aa I
can calculate It In our pbraa, that corn
crib is fiftaeo hundred miles long and
fifteen hundred broad and fifteen hun
dred high ; and it ia f all Food for ail
nAtiona. "Oh I" say the people, "we
will start right away and get this rap
ply for our eouL " But stop a moment ;
for from the keeper of that eorncrib
tbre oomee tlib word, saying, "You
ball not see my fv except your broth
er be with 700."
In other words, there is no such thing
as getting from heaven pardon and
comfort and eternal life, nnless we
bring with ne our drriue brother, the
Lord Jesus Chrirt. Coming without
him we shall faH before we reach the
cbmcrib, and our bodice shall be a por
tion for the jackals of tlie wlldernc,
but coming with tbe Divine Jesus, all
tho granarke of beavoo will swing open
before our souL and abundaxtce shall
be given as.' We shall be Invited to sit
hi tho palace of tbe klog and at the
tftbie, and while tbe Lord of bearva Is
apftortioning from his own table to
other tables ha will not forget ue, and
then and there It will ba foaod that our
Benjamin's mess ia larger than all tbe
others, for so it ought toXe. "Worthy
Is tbe lamb that was slain, to recve
blessing and ricbee and honor and
gfory and power."
