IP 11 IE ILIH(C)ILH C'IU-HI1 V t t $1.50 A YEAH. THE (LINbbLrJ COURIER mm MiMtAR ANM A YBAM, Sinco we changed the price of the Courier to One Dollar there has been but little vari ance in the Subscription list and we therefore conclude that the people who want a county paper are willing to pay $1.50 for it, at any rate we cannot afford to publish the (Jourier at $1-00 a vear- Henceforth we will hold to our original price $150 a year. It CJauuot lie. Mr. J. L. liamsey, associate editor of the Progressive Farmer, was in the Landmark oiiice Monday, ami being anked if the Alliauce leaders meant by saying that unless the Demo cratic party accepted tbe Alliauce deujauda, includiuK the subTreas ury theme, t could not get the Alli ance vote, he answered in the affirm ative. We very much hope that tbe Alliance is not going to the ex tremety. The great body of the Allianceuien in North Carolina are Democrats and the Democratic par ty, as a means of preserving its own supremucy iu the State and con tributiug its proportion to the eJees tion of the Democratic candidate for l'residout next year, is only too anxious to make evt ry reasonable confession to the Alliance. It met it lant year in the spirit of comprom ise and readily incorporated in tli party platform every demand made upon it. It is willing to again adopt that platform, though BOnie of tbe members of the party thiuk that it went too far last summer; but it can go no further without sacrifice iug its principles and losiug its solf. respect. Plainly, the Democratic party cannot stand sponson for the sub-Treasury scheme. If it did it would violate its moat cherished principles and stultify itself. That which has given it its vital force id that it has stood consistently, with out variableness or shadow of turn ing' by certain principles of gov ernmeut. Other parties have risen, flourished and passed away ; defeat ended their existence aud they were heard of no more among men. The Democratic party has suffered de feat many Union. Alter every over throw its enemies have iejoiced in the belief that it had at last been deatioyed. But with each recurring campaign it has set its quadrons in the fieli?, aud never siuce it was or gauized, was it more virile than it is to-day. It is entrenched iu tbe hearts ot tbe people why t because iu victory aud deieat it has steadily kept its course. Other parties have veeied aud trimmed but the vital principles which Jefferson breathed into it aie its vital piiucip!es yet. It cau ay to other earthly institu tions aud to men, "1 could be well moved, if I were as you ; If I could pray to move, piayeis would move me ; Bat I am constaut as the Northern Star, Of whose true, tixM and resting quality, There is no fellow in tha firma amenr." This party ia too old to change. Come weal, come woe, it must hold its course. If it should yield up its bed-rock principles it would be shorue of its strength aud become as other human orgauiz itious a toy a thiug for tbe winds to plav with. It would be as if a child Should put a knife to the throat ot its mo;her if the farmers ot the countiy ubould now turn upon the Democratic party and say that thoe principles of its, by which they have stood for so many years, are false and hurtful and must be exchanged for new ones- Jf it shoald thus be recreated, its old self changed and it made to ttand for policies which it has always stood against, it would be not only defeated again but its professed friends would have done for it what its enemies have neves succeeded in doing it would be destroyed. Let us hope that this fate may be averted. We have no words for the leaders of the Farmers' Alliance words are wasted upon men who are intent upon their own bolfish echemes. But we ask the rank and file, the honest men who do not mean any thing that ia not right, il they are ready to see the old party of the people perverted and des troyed T We repeat : the Demo cratic party cannot accept the sub Treasury scheme. It will make every concession that can be made in honor, in order to have peace and victory over the common eLe my. But there are things more valuable to it than victory. It cau utand defeat as it has stood it many times in the past, but it cannot af ford to lose its integrity It has enough friends left to save this for it, and save it they will. The right minded men of the Alliance are in vited to join in this woik of preser vation, and we have faith that when the time comes they will disregard the orders from headquarters and follow where their affections and their interests lead. Statesville Landmark. Treasure OI Earth k interior. A scientific scheme of much im portance has been agitated in Wash ington recently. During the last two Congresses there have been a number of representatives and two or fc three senators who have used their influence in favor of an appro priation for boring a hole in lh earth several miles in depth. It ba long been recognized that an incon ceivable amount of value in th shape of precious metals and other mineral substances is locked up out of reach beneath the crust of this planet. All the riohes dug out of it represent merely the most superfi cial and ineffective scratobing of the surface. Once render accessible the luternal recesses of the sphere, and it is plain that every human being might be a thousand times a Monte Cristo. Geologists are agreed that the in terior of the earth is largely com posed of metals. Whereas the sur face matter of the planet weighs only about two and one-half limes as much as water, it is known as a fact that toward the center 'the av erage weight ot tnings is eleven times that of waler. This is due to the circumstance that while this sublunary orb was cooling and con densing, the heavier particles sought tbe middle. Therefore it is probable that the great mass of tbe spheie is iroD, But there are other metals more heavy thau iron, and these would naturally form an ac cumulation immediatly abont the center of the globe. Among them may be mentioned most impcrtantig gold. Geologist Gilbert, of the Geological Survey, said the other iay that he would ratner expect to fiud a vast accumulation of gold at that poiut thau anywhere else, his notion being that suoh of the yellow medal as is found on the surface of the earth is only an accidental de tiitus. However, there are two or three substauces kuowu even more weighty than gold, and one of them is platinum, which has doubled in market value within the last year or two, owing to tbe increased cost of production. So it is uot unreasonable that certaiu numbars o Congress ahd other persons of keen judgment should consider the advisability of boring a hole iu tbe eith for the purpose of extracting some ot its metallic contents, For scientific purposes a pit has recently been suck at Speling, in Germany, to the d pth of a mile. Unfortunately, water has been struck, and no re suits which add very materially to human knowledge have thus far been obtaiued, Auother well has been driven at Wheeling, West Va., as far down as three quarters of a mile. It is dry, and the boring pto cess is proceeding at the rate of about teu feet a day. The manage meut wilt he disgusted if oil m something is not struck before the hole comes out at the antipodes aud somehody tumbles in at the other end. No really scientific person ha. been so foolish as to imagine that possible results, commercially speak ing, cou'd be secured without dig. ging much further thau this. Eti mate is made that at twenty miles from the surface of the earth every known substauce, metals, rocks and all becomes fused and liquid. Ouce let this point be reached, and natu rally whatever is below must epout up of its own accord, without ex pense of mining. Immediately the price of metals would be reduced to little or nothiug, and a new age would dawn upon civilization. It has been suggested thateuch an ar tificial conduit would be, to all in tents and purposes, a volcano, but any dangers which it would others wise threaten, might be obviated easily by establishing the works on an open prairie Washington Strr. The Third Iarly, We have it from the lips of a good many staunch Alliancemen in this county, including Mr. M. 8. Davis, the President of the County Alliance that they will not go into the third'party. In conversation with President Davis a few days ago, the editor oi the limes said, "Well Mr Davis, it looks very much like Col. Folk is joining hands with Simpson and other leaders of tbe third parly' To this Mr. Davis re plied, "Well, I will not follow them into a third party nor do I believe the Alliance will." Mr. Davis is a thorough Allianoeman, but he is at the same time a Democrat, and we gather from the short conversation we had with him that he is strong ly in favor of securing the needed reforms in and through the Demon cratic party. He reads a great deal and is thoroughly of the opinion that the people cannot expect much, if any, relief through the Itepobli cans. Louiabury Times. When Baby was sfck, tre gare her Caetorla.
