Wben tbe people dis pensed witb your "Good Government." you dumped upon us some $ltJ,0uo of tbe worthless paper of this insolvent corporation. There are three other plantations on tbe Cape Fear that have been rented by tbe present roanarement for tbe cultivation of rice. Two of these places were rented from Mr. Butter, one of tbem for $500 and the other for 350 a year. One of tbem was rented from Mr. Borden of tbe Navasaa Guano Co., for some $300 or $:ttC. I am told that some slanderers have circulated the report that Governor Russell own these places, or had some interest in them. In this there is no truth. Tbe Governor had no interest whatever in these properties. 1 am reliably in formed that there are respon sible parties wbo would be glad enough to take these three plantationa from tbe State at an ad vance on tbe rent which tbe State is paving. Suppose you aend out some of your heelers and find somebody wbo will give us one-half to one-third of the rent which we are paying for tbe Halifax farm and Anson farm. You want to know about tbe sales of cotton of tbe crop of Is'?. It would give me pleasure to answer this or any other of your questions to any man who asked tbem in good faith and for an honest purpose, so far as 1 have tbe Knowledge or means of acquiring it. I shall not trouble myself, however, or my bookkeeper, to answer you, but if you want to find out bow much cotton was sold from the crop of 1K7 and what price it brought, and whether or not it brought its value, you can ask the men who bought it and the men who handled it. About 800 bales were sold by my predecessor to Mr. Arnold Borden of Goldsboro. This was from he Roanoke farms. About '270 bales were sold from the Aiieon farm before I came in.

THE POLITICAL SITUATION IN ALA BAMA. such a a true silver and anti-monopoly Democrat, that tbe last so-called Dem- crL'c state Convention rerused to en dorse bis course, but on tbe other hand honored Clevelandites and McKinley Democrats. But this was to be ex pected from a convention that repu diated the course marked out by Bryan and endorsed the policy outlined by tbe Charlotte Observer and Orover Cleveland. Every party has good men in it and bad men in it. No party can be judg by a few bad men in it or by a few good men in it; but every party can and must be judged by tbe kind of men who control and direct the course of the party.

Vance who said in a publie letter afewmtnths before bis death that if the Clevelandites, the goldbuga and tbe monopolists were to control the Democratic party, then tbe true Democrats would walk out of the party and leave nothing but a smell of sulphur and brimstone behind. The above was one of Vance's last great patriotic utterances, and it ap plies with full force to tbe last Demo cratic State Convention. Though Vance is dead his reat admonition still lives and to-day rings in the ears of the great honest masses of tbe Dem- Washington Post, about the political situation in Alabama. The Democratic machine in that State has an election law equally as infamous as tbe one un der which the Democrats in this State stole elections and prostituted the bal lot box for so many years.
