It was rumored yesterday that the
Progressive Farmer of to-morrow's date
wouid have a pretty lively editorial on
Senator Vance. Associate Editor
Ramsey has kindly given me an ad
vance copy. The following is one of
the editorial articles:
; ,4The true inwardness of all this bub-
bub over Senator Vance is not fully
comprehended by the people, if indeed
it is thoroughly understood by the Sen
ator himself, ilt is now evident that
all the enemies of the Alliance in the
State are arrayed on that side of the
line, and they are pressing the matter
with unrelenting activity, s with the
view and the hope that by the use of
the power and prestige of his name,
they will succeed in destroying the
Alliance in our State. There are per
haps not less than 70,000 North Caro
lina Democrats in the Alliance, and we
feel safe in saying that not 700 of that
number ever voted again st the Sena
tor. And whatever else may be said
of his so-called friends, one thing can
not be successfully gainsayed among
them is to be found all the enemies oi
the Alliance.'''
I The paper makes a severe attack on
the Nexcs and Observer, which is likely
to draw its fire, and will then give the
public something else to talk about.
; The other editorial regarding Sena
tor Vance is as follows:

Pittsburg, Sept. 1 Labor Day was
genetally observed hereto-day. All the
banks, factories, mills and many busi
ness houses were closed." During the
passage of the Bakers Union in the
parade in Allegheny City this after
noon, a party of American mechanics
broke into the ranks and tore down the
German flag which the baker's were
carrying. The bakers defended the
flag, but they were overpowered and
the flag trailed in the dust. No person
was seriously injured but the incident
created great excitement and consid
erable bad blood.

Washington, Sept. l. f Senate.!
The Senate met at 10 a. m., but it was
half an hour afterward before business
could bo proceeded with owing to the
absence of a quorum. In the. meantime
becator Blair asked whether a motion
to adjourn would be In order. Tbl
was L-w.r Day, be said, and should be
universally observed. He . thought
that the Senate; which worked eixteen
hours a day, instead of eight, ought to
do honor to the j occasion by an ad
journ caout. I
Senator Hoar gave it as his opinion
that Labor Day would be better honor
ed by better legislation on behalf of
labor. .
Very well. Senator Blair said In ac-
quiescince; tnere are four labor bills
that have been sent over by the House
oi tve preventatives, l would be very
glad to have them acted on by the Sen
ate. - ...
Senator Hoar -I desire to spend the
day in legislation that will raise wages
of labor. h
Senator Blalr-pl give notice to the
Senator in charge of the Tariff bill
that I will ask the unanimous consent
of tho Senate to give precedence to
consideration of , the laoor bills that
have beea sent to us by the House of
RepreseHtattvesJ This is Labor Day
and there is universal desire to do
something for labor.
Senator Aldrich objected to any
further buncanbe speeches and Senator
Ulair's recognition of this remark was
that "representatives of monopoly
micht obiect but that the Senate should
nevertbc' ess proceed to consider the
Labor 4. ill. '
Senator Aldrich asked the presiding
officer to enforce the rules and the pre
siding officer (Ingails) thereupon re
quested the Senator from New Hamp
shire to observe the rules and refrain
from debate.
This little incident occurred before
the appearance of a quorum, and be
fore the reading oi Saturday's luurnal.
Senator Sherman gave notice of an
amendment which he prepared to offer
to the Tariff bill, lookiug toward recip

Senator Paddock, (Rep.) addressed
the Senate. He spoke in a friendly
criticism of the Tariff bill. There was
no dissent in the Republican party, he
s&tJ, to the declarations heretofore
made in its platform, but there were
differences of opinion as to the details
of tariff. The yest agitated revis.on
of the tariff as meaning a reduction of
the tariff whenever possible and not
increases in tariff imports, and he was
confident that the demand for a lower
range of duties would have to receive
an early and favorable response from
Congress. Many of these duties, now
believed to be too high, had long ago
done the work which had first
justified j their imposition. The
people of the) West were begin
ing to think that if many of the most
protected of these industries were ever
to learn 4.0 stand alone, their hands
should be soon forcibly released from
the skirts of high protection to which
they to persistently cling. He would
reduce the duties on necessaries of life
to the lowest point consistent with the
mamtainance of home industries.
Paragraph 3S1, relating to carpets,
ha vine been reached. Senator Vance
asked Senator Aldrich to state the rea
son forincreasing the duty on carpets?
Senator Aldrich The increase is
made necessary by the increase of duty
on carpet wool. I
Senator Vance-pi have nothing more

The conference report on the bill in
