-Cmt TH SOUTH HK SHAKE.
It is now quite sore that the pres
ent Congress will make no rednc
tioa ef tariff daties. The Morki

8oathera industries to soch an ex
tent that it ought not, and we be

of ' Southern members, howerer
mscA they may faror tariff reform.
It is equally certain that the inter

pealed, taough Southern Democrats
may use erery effort in their power
to accomplish this result.

To get at the gist of this matter
and to show the reason why the
Enterprise pnLs such a question to
the Journal, it is necessary to
refer to the position assumed by
the Enterprue some two weeks ago
in regard to the Blair bill. In its
zeal and anxiety to outstrip iu con
temporaries in denouncing the edu
cation al bill now before Congress,
the Eterpri declared the bill dis
honest and corrupt and declared
that erery Southern Senator and
Representative who voted for it
would be held responsible for
treason to bis party. The Journal
thought it right and proper to re
mind the Enterprise that if the
Democratic party of North Caro
lina was thoroughly committed to
anything it was National aid to
public schools. The Convention ol
the party in which there were rep
resentatives from every county in
the State, fresh from the people,
endorsed it by a large majority.
The General Assembly, overwhelm
ingly Democratic, also fresh from
the people, passed resolutions, by a
unanimous rote we believe, rcquiit
iy not lajjraciiiij;- our Senators
and Representatives to roto for
such a measure. Tbis being the
case we thought it very unjust and
unwise iu the Enterprise to charge
ur Senators and Representatives
with treasou to the party when they
were simply carryingout the wishes
and demaads of the party in North
Carolina. The Enterprise evident
ly saw that it had gone beyond the
bounds of prudenif , but instead of
manfully acknowledging iia error
and trying to correct it, propounds
silly questions for the Jul K5al to
answer.
We have not the leajit doubt that
Senator IIaxsok and Congressman
SKIN5EB are giving attention to !
the matter to which the Enterprise
refers, and will do all they can to
secure .iu appropriation for Kay
river. Hut if we were ever no
strongly opposed to river and har
bor improvements we certainly
would not charge our Senator and
Representatives with treason to
their party if they voted for it.

I do dread the processes. And 1

It can be used promptly, and it can
be usm1 without exi?nse. The pro
cedure is sure to excite attention
becansf it is a pnbhc one, and to
win reopect because its orderly
(itexi are directed by a I'nited
States statute: and the decision is
equally surv ol respect and atten

eial judgment. It coes into
the public archives. and
'it is filed and recorded in
a public office w here Congress and
the people, can see and read it.
liecause this bill does give the
workiugmau a means of quickly and
ronspienonsly proving his wrongs,
and because, in my opinion, he has
only, in this country at least, to
prove his wrongs to get promptly
and fully his rights, 1 am glad to
vote for the measure."
The temper of the tunes is pretty
well indicated in the following re
marks dnring the discussion of the
Nil:
"Mr. Lawler, of Illinois said that
the opponents of this bill Jhd had
three loDg months to prepare some
thing upon the question
and had
not done so
But now thev insult-
ed the intelligence of the well
meaning mtn on the Committee on
Labor, who have given it their at
tention. Passing on to the consider
ation of the strike on the Missouri .
Pacific, he declared that, without
wishing to become coni monistic in '
bis utterances, be was free to say
that if Jay Gould was hanged to S
lamp post in New York it wonld be
a blessing to the community known !
as the I'nited States, daughter.
The action of .lay Gonld might cost
hundreds and thousands of lives
throughout the Western States, i
The death of a mau like this was
nothing when compared with what
might occur if the difficulties were
not settled in those States. There
was no sentimental basis 111 this
matter. It was the justice to the, here who ..ie
workman. There was no harm in old
this bill, and the discussion of it had , C 1;. oh. t he
had a healthv effect uuon the coun i the law was einu
try. It was an honest bill, and if'
there was anything wroug with it I
Congress could repeal it anytime.")

ltecently we published an account :
of hop raising in Washington Tern-1
5 , , , 1
torybyfol. PARDEE and gave a ,
notice of a book on the subject i
which one of our Jones county
farmers sent for. But a friend hands i
us the following clipping which
shows there is a limit to the busi
ness and more danger of over pro
duction than there is iu making
cotton: !
Saturday, Feb. 27, lssc. !
Hops, the "gamblers' crop," is a '
losing one this year. It costs from ,
14 cents to 15 cents a jmund to
raise them, and now prices range
here from five to ten cents per
pound. At this time last 3 ear,
prises were from 14 cent to 17 cents'
per pound; in 18-S-t they were from
22 cents to 20 cents; in fss.;, ti".
cents to 1; and in l,v2. from 25
cents to 27 cents. At other times
in each year prices were consider- 1
ably higher. The high prices tor
the crop of 1HS2, which culminated
at f 1.25 per pound for choice hops,
led j, multitude of outsiders to en
(race in hoo-raisinn. hence the ores .
ent glut. California advanced from
7,tXH) bales in 18.H2 to 75.000 bales
in 15S4; New York from 100,000 m
ISS2 to over 150.0O0.ooo 111 l-csi.
The increase was proportionate in
the other great hep growiug States
Wisconsin, Michigan. Oregon
and Vermont and iu Washington
Territory the increase was greatest
of all. tiermany, Uelgiuni, Aus
tralia ami Kngland all likewise
added thousands of acres to their
hop areas. Although price- w. 10
hardly remunerative last year, and
are far '-below cost" tins sear,
growers cling to the business like
toers to their beer. All see that
a great curtailment ot product:..:,
is absolutely necessary to make the
crop remunerative, and each w i-h.-s
his neigotnir would '-plow up," and
the reluctance of an to make a be
ginning of plowing up the whole r
a great part of their hop yard-. -a
courages the others to hold 011. and
little or nothing is done.

Communication from Conimlsssioncr
of Immigration on Frnit Cannine.
II one class of immigrants are !
needed more than onother it isj
practical fruit canners. '
They are needed for several refi- '
sous. First, because thousands of'
bushels of fruit go to waste every
year in North Carolina for the want
of market. If a fruit cannery was
located in every county in the State
the ) irmeis could readily sell peach
es at from .'." to ' cents per bushel.
In. the majority ot' villages of North
'archil. i twenty-live bushels of
peaches is .-utlieieiit to .-upply the

goods and advance enough to cover
the current expenses. An outlay
of inonev is needed to purchase
fruits until a return can be made
from the goods "shipped. All ex
penses necessary would reach prob
ably four or five hundred dollars.
There is no risks, the canned fruits
will not spoil.
I will be glad to correspond with
anv partv in Xorth Carolina who
1 would like to learn more concerning
the canning business, or to visit
any town where the citizens wonld
interest themselves in starting a
canning factory. Now is the time
to enact so as to be ready for the
present year's fju.it and vegetable
crop.
l(ie Kaleigh A- ana Uoserrer,
speaking of the canning iudustry
says:
'The intelligent efforts ot Com
missioner Patrick to establish fruit
canneries in North Carolina should
receive the hearty support of every
citizen of the State. No scheme yet
devised has more possibilities in a
small way, which is the way we
want nowadays, of good to the
body of the people. A moments
consideration in the vast quantities
ot' small fruit annually thrown away
in t he State will make this appar
ent. The details of Mr. Patrick's
scheme are given elsewhere, and it
will be seen 'that they are practi
cal. It only remains for the peo
ple of influence to' aid him heartily

we saw was Mr. Nowitzky with his

Prohibition is getting to be pretty

We think il there was a law to
punish drunkards for getting drunk,
that is 1:1. iking it a. misdemeanor
tor ;i person to get tipsy and cnt up
shines, as the saying is. it would be
a good law. and we think would be
more apt to suit everybody than
the regular prohibition law of taking
liquor entirely out of the county,
because we think that will be harder
to do than one imagines, but we
are in favor of either if the majority
of the people are. Then you are
with the majority, no matter where
they are. Fin. .Juvenal.

THE COTTO" -MOVEMENT
:-'nm Ii:-adbtroi.-i .
The market during the week. just
ended, while showing a .-light
strengthening i:. value.- ol both
futures and spots, was not of a
satisfactory character, am! the
volume of sales did not equal that
of the we-.-k bcfoie. The tame tone
of Liverpool in the e..:ly part of the
week was sufiicient 'u keep prices
ju.-t about stead v and no more. All
milueiices of a do a estic nature had
been discounted, and Liverpool and
Manche-ter remained the sole pivot
on which prices miM ue turned.
Toward the end of the week the
j Livei pool mirkef to. k a favorable
, turn, and the eau-es of this latter
eilec. were ot .-uui a cuaracter as
to lead dealers to believe that it
was ot a substantia! origin, and
would affect the mm hi t in an up
ward direction. The slight change
for the better came on Thursday
und T'ritlay: the market, owing to
this diversion, was just able to hold
its own. Spots at New York were
sent up 1 Inc.. but this was looked
upon as merely a speculative rise,

The Vote on the Educational Hill
The vote on the educational bill
in the liouse shows that the South
ern Representatives, with the ex
ception ot those from Missouri, gen
erally favor tne measure. The
Western and Northern States only
were generally found in opposition.
They nave abundant means and are
independent of the negro problem.
The east is in lavorof the measure
because it wants to see the blacks
educated on general principles. Mr.
Long, of Massachusetts, represents
the eastern sentiment probably in
holding that
the whole country is
responsible for slavery, for the en- i
lranchisement of the blacks, and
for conferring citizenship upon
them, therefore it cannot escape its
responsibility for educating them
up to soma degree of ability to dis
charge the duties of citizenship."
That the measure will, if made law,
be of great benefit to the South can
not be doubted for a moment by
anyone familiar with existing
Southern conditions, and that it is
in violation of the constitution can
not be maintained. The Southern
people are to be congratulated on
the brighter prospects of its pas
sage. A"fir. and Obscrrcr.
Astor and Giraed. 1: has
often been said that John Jacob
Astor was, sixty years ago, the only
citizen ot America worth yi.000,000.
He may- have been the only iNew
Yorker then possessed of such a
fortune, but the wealth of Stephen
Girard, of Philadelphia, would at
that time have reached at least SC,
000.000. He died in 1S31, leaving
an estate of Ti2O,000,OO0, much ot it
having been accumulated within
fifteen or twenty years.
"Sleep breathes at last from out thee,
my little patient boy." Oh! yes, cer
tainly. But that child would have cried
all night with his foct. if it had not been
for a timely bottle of isalvation Oil.

him rest.
