C,- Man 9fl3U. , One of the most ablest men in North Carolina, in a private letter received yesterday, said:" No railroad attorney ought to be permitted io be a mem ber of the General Assembly." Cor rect. In a long experience, this writer has known just three out of over a hundred Legislators who were railroad lawyers who did not always vote for the railroads -when the in terest of the people and the rail roads conflicted. "Ye cannot serve God and Mammon." Raleigh News and Observer. The News and Observer seems to think that k is well nigh impossible for a railroad attorney io vote his convictions on all questions or for the best interests of his constituents and the people generally. We4ave a better-opinion of men generally thWjars and a controlling interest in the that. It is not a war eloud in the east this time but in the south and near at home. Not since the days preceding the Spanish-American war has of ficial Washington been stirred as it is now over tbe sudden mobilization of 20,000 troops and a number of war vessels on the Mexican border. Ac cording to official statements, merely maneuvers on an extensive scale to disprove the charge of. unreadiness are contemplated.' Unofficially the belief is expressed that the order is intend ed first of all as a demonstration to impress the Mexican insurgents with the necessity of respecting American property, with actual intervention and invasion of Mexico as a by no means remote possibility. LETTER TOU KAXSA3. ' - A GrwU SUta, kit It Em lu Dlsad- vsaUf- Aa InUrwKiof Latter. Mr. Editor: While auiin in re- rival work recently is a neighboring low, I .viaiud farm bouao of such inter that I thought a little eos mwii on it might be acceptable to Tbe Timea reader. 1 found here mm firs mile from tbe county seat a dwelling waieh in point of arrhiteelare, sanitary eon- renienr aad com fort will do credit to the enterprise of a modern eity. Tbs sii overlooks a beautiful rolling country,, watered by xrolucung strewn and devoted to pasture, oats, wheat, corn and alfalfa almWt as far as the eye can see.- : -;; The well ordered premises, splendid barns, modern machinery and imple ments and tbe long feeding troughs, aronnd which linger fat steers and hogs si) the day, speak of enterprise snd prosperity. Here I met a Tar Heel wbo greeted me with a broad smile, so characteris tic of the traveler or journeyman who chances to meet a fellow countryman in a otrange land, and I must confess tbe fellow feeling was mutual though we had met for the first time on Kan sas soil. From the Tar Heel the following bit of information was gathered, and con firmed by other reliable anthonty. Mr. 0. D., ihe proprietor under dis cussion, came to Kansas irom Ken tucky in the early sixties when Kansas was known as the land of storms droughts and grasshoppers and the battleground of two great and bitter factions. The outlook was anything but encsouraging for a young man, but Mr. O. I)., without a dollar to begin with, started to work as a farm hand, and has resided in this community practically ever since. The beginning was very slow and hard but through his enterprise and good judgment in trading and feeding he has acquired a farm of more than .5,000 acres with the splendid im provements already referred to. Has real estate in a neighboring town to the extent of many thousands of dot ..The Congressional apportionment bill as finally passed puts Wilkes in the seventh district, Catawba, which was at first transferred to the eighth, was finally left in the ninth. The eighth is like it was before except that Wilkes, is taken out and put in the seveoib. This leaves our district safely 'Democratic under almost any conditions, though we realize that all political calculations are sometimes unexpectedly npset. Wilkes has a us ual Republican- majority of about 1500, though Mr. Doughton by his strong personality out this down last year to a little over-1100. The ehange also puts Wilkes in a safely Demo cratic district. h. The statistics show that more than ene-haif of the people in this country live entirely on the efforts and energy of the remainder, the exact figures be ing 62 but of every 100. Of course a large number of these are real depen- - dents, children, afflicted people ' and those who are unable to work ; for themselves. But a' still larger num- her of them are drones, and live on the - work of their fellows. There is (food for thoaghi in fbis, Why wouldn't a compulsory military ; service ; law such aa Germany has, largely correct such a state of affairs t " Ballinger, qn whom the country has been calling for ' months to -resign knew just when to get out. 'Although he urged ur health, and strained re sources as his reason for giving np the office of Secretary of the Interior, it is understood that he feared that im peachment proceedings would be in stituted against him at the extra ses sion of Congress, and that he resigne in order to escape this. bat is IDteksJ from b Uxk sr crib bed. Tbea the cattle sr turned into the stork field to wither. Thus " rd iag a imaiena saving in time, labor and feed. 'l'oir this proems it is easily posubl ftfr a farsaer to work 130 acre in eorn beside rariaf for hi bay and small grain. Nov Mr. O. D. has not only farmed on a large seal himself tat snpple- meat hi wa efforts by enterprising tenants from whom fa receives one halt the crop for rent, (th customary rent hen). .' Then t not only feeds np th en tire products from this inMBns farm but boy, in addition oa an average of more than 600 tons of hay and over 20,000 bushels of corn. Being a close buyer and a good judge of th market, he baa tamed every thing to profit and his fortune has stesdily grown from year to, and very naturally so. , But this ig an exceptional experiment and not so easily possible todsy by even the best of farmers, and almost impos sible for th average young man who begins with no capital. - , Keel estate has advanced almost be yond th reach of a poor man. It re quires almost fl,000 to equip one for sny sort of fanning, and the rents, it soems to me, are in many eases -high. While the eattle feeding is very risky, one may see a fortune in it today and next year be practically bankrupt. One man in this community bought his feeders on the market last spring; brought them home, pastured them for the summer, fed up his entire crotv of corn snd then shipped (hem back to market for $2.00 a head less than he paid for them. So it is evidence that while Kansas is a big State, wide awake and progressive and affords splendid possibilities for enterprises, it also has disadvantages in common with all other States, some of which I may speak .of later.

D. incurred th ha tred of his fellows as a miser, a tight wad or an oppressor of the poor, but to the contrary I am told that he is highly esteemed as a neighbor and cit izen, fon kindness and hospitality and loved bv his workmen. Said the Tar Heel : ' 'I worked like a slave in the mountains of North Caro lina for seven years and saved during that time just a little more than enough to pay the fare for myself and wife to Kansas. For four years I have been with Mr. O. D., having steady work, that i comparatively easy, made possible through modern . machinery aud improved methods of farming and for my service I am receiving fw.W by the month, a team when needed, a cow kept for me, a garden allowed and fuel furnished. From this salary 1 have saved almost enough to begin farming for myself." This looks very good on paper, es pecially to a North Carolina hoy ac customed to wrestling with stumps, roots snd stones through the year for bare hvine or for a wage of $10 to $14 by the month, and the first im pulse of one learning ox tbe contrast in condition is to ask why more of the young men of Carolina and adjoining States do not locate in the west. It would seem most reasonable that they But there is another side to the question which must be considered be fore we ' form conclusions a to me wonderful possibilities of Kansas for even the farmer. Mr. C D. represents a class of farmer that stand alone in every State. : He located io Kansas when conditions were very trying and resources undeveloped The wage was reasonable, averaging $15 for farm la bor and in proportion (for other ser vice. The cost of living was commen surate with the wage while the stock and land was very cheap. Many of tb early homesteaders were rngntened away - oy repeatea crop failures and stprms, and the best of land could be had for from $3.00 to $6.00 per acre. It was then only na tural for the men who had faith in the future of Kansas to invest all of his earnings in land. That is jnst what the gentleman under discussion did, and there laid the foundation (for his fortune, Since the great ares of open prairie land has been put in cultivation th drought and th grasshopper have be come matters of history. The cyclone is not more frequent in this section than in many other" parts of the coun try and complete crop failure nas not been known here tor years.
