Tnpfe ! inretigate the euhirc: and 1 have tried since to read all the carrent liter.itnre heannc upon the sut'ier: th.it I could find. My reading and Ptady have brought me to the sincere and decided conclu.sion thut the financial prob llem is of the fir?: importance among the isaes tint mtifrt be settled by tb American people. In this view- I tiod mynell coin cidinji with AlliAcre and noD Alli ance Iemccrats in the State. In January, l"i7, I attended the azrica'.tnral convention ::i Kleib, , presided over bv Hon. Kli.is C'arr, aad intrcxiuceel a resolution look ing to financial relief. In March, I the same year, I I entitled "Land wrote aa article Haais for our National Bank Issue,'' which p peared in the '-Greenville Keflec tor" and "News A: Observer" about! the same time. After this I wrote an article dealing with tbe cotton problem, entitled, ' The Hope of the South'' This was first pub lished in the 'Progressive Farmer," and afterwards in an abbreviated form in '-Frank Leslie's. ' Both of these articles were widely cop led. I followed this with "Hope of the Sooth No 2." Subsequently I have now and then contributed to different papers on the line of financial reform, es pecially in advocacy of tho sub tieisary plan. These questions naturally brought me to the notice ol tbe Alliance, an organized body working lor legislative reforms, and consequently I received many invitations Irom different parts of the State to address Alliance gath erings. Some few of these invita tions I accepted. Ia midsummer; I received an invitation to join ! Col. Polk in n series of speeches throughout tbe State. Betore consenting to do so I con salted many promiuent Democrats, i among them chairman 17. C. Smith, Hon. T. K. Jernigan, then associate editor of the News & Observer, Hon. T. J. Jarvis, who has always shown himseli a wise and conserv ative leader, and others. They edrised me that it would do good for me to accept the invitations Following the few on e I was flooded speeches I with other invitations, and at a sacrifice, with only the good of the people at heart, have delivered speeches in twenty five counties. I leave the character and tendency ol mv speeches to the people who heard : them as well as to the telegraphic reports of them in different Demo cratic journals, invariably report-1 ingmea having ; done my party: good, which coald not have been otherwise as I made the same class ol speeches that I was want to do i in the campaigns from 187 to 1800, nd also the same kind of speeches spoken by Hon. Jesse J. Veates, j Hon. T. K. Jernigan, Hon. D. M. Carter, Hon. L. C. Latham and Hon. 'lhomas G. Skinner, in their respective canvasses of the first district, and the electors for the State-at-large, i nd as Senators Vance and Kansom have made throagbout North Carolina for the past twenty years. They denoun ced the demonetization of silver, the resumption of specie payment nd tbe credit strengthening act. They have held up the tyranny of a goli standard, promised the re monetiratiou of silver and general financial relief through the Demo crattc partv. So have I. In the present hour we only liflVr as to the plan of relief. 1 be i 've n the sub treasurv plan. fhey do not. As Democrats each is entitled to his individual opin ion. As long as freedom of speech is guaranteed in this country we all have our individual right to ex press our own views and I trust ithoat havmg our Democracy impugned or ourselves proscribed Mr. Blardcan favor free silver and oe a Demoerat; Mr. liarter can oppose free silver without having tns Democracy questioned; Mr. Itandall was a protectionist aud yet a reco gn : z-d leader of Demo cracy in Congress; Mr. Carlisle can reverse himself on silver, and all tne while fight against the aboli tion of internal revenue, a perma aent plank in onr State platforms, and yet is to North Carolinians a i;reat leader m Democracy. Bat Mr. Skinner, i: would seen, an not advocate a measure which be sincerelv believes would relieve he people of their great agncnltn ra 1 s' a ;nathn ai d arm the fields with the po-ver to command high er prices tor tneir products, without havinc bin political heritage taken from b in, lm (-crvices cancelled nd his future proscribed. Hence I de.-ire to sav, as much as 1 mav b- maligned, sharp as the criti cisms may Ik? made, nothing can Mine me to waver ur falter in my po'itica! laith, for I expec: to f.l iow the tlag when many who now judge me wrongly shall have de serted and joined with ourcomnicu enemy. My advocacy ot the sub treasury plan has always been in the pale of the party. 1 discuss it only in a general way, trying to impress two p; -otal thoughts that Democracy is the rule or strength of the peo ple and that a majority have the right to control; that Democracy means lodging a'l power with the people possible; that what we call mocey, whether in the shape of government credit or com, is the most powerful controller of human action ami the great distributer ol f V a r.an!ra nf l.ilw"r th.Af A4 fnv- ernmer taJ creiilt tas to be invoked either ia the form of treasury notes, 'certificates or guaranteed bank 1 '. ihs ol th- ! o I )fni ocr.itic 1 i, a.

Tlie eople of North Carolina mas te a--tired while 1 claim the rigii: t m lmlividnal views, I stand ready to make any sacrifice to prevent the disruption of the 1 )eun,-ra; ic party. Ami if I may be p-i.Mtttd to make a sugges tion. i:li-.:u; ciiticism, to Alliance aud m-n -AUl.iLce Democrats in the lnteic-; of harmony, it would be to carry out what 1 intended at the last nue'n.g of the State Executive committee, to recommend to the ditTc-rent cotiaty conventions, wkh as little variation as possible, the State platform of 1S90, and rele gate n.l nnr differences of a na tiutiil character to the different congressional conventions, as this class of relief must come through the channel of congress, and these ng further as , . are I he political bodies that should be impressed viih the importance of relief on the line indicated. In making this suggestion I am Dot retreating Irom the Democratic principles involved in the sab treasury plan. I shall attend the Democratic convention of the first district and do as I did at our laat district con vention, use my power to have in corporated this plan in the plat form, and work for the nomination of a man that will stand tlat-footed upon sach a platform. If I fail, it will not dimnish my Democratic ardor, but I will folio tho majori ty. As a financial reformer, 1 can not see how engrafting anything unusual in our State platform will advance cause. I can Bee how it may divide our people and endanger our loci 1 institutions. I give the Alliance credit for too much wisnom and patriotism, even if in the absolute control of the State convention, to act either in naming the ticket or the platform, so as to briDg defeat upon the work there committed to their charge. My opinion is, they will act wisely and conservatively, and on the day alter they will deserve the applause of patriots Let lion-Alliance Democrats stop their bickerings, mad criticiume, tone themselves down, be prepared to act conservatively, meet on a common gronnd. help enact a com mon platform that all can stand upon and name a satisfactory tick- ' et that wiil inspire union and solid i i t v in citv, town, hamlet and country, and under one flag march i to an assured victory To this end let us all meet as tree I'emocrats prepared to make ! some sacri flees and concessions for : tbe common good. llAEuv Skin nek.

May 1 I 'he first au thentic report of a May Day dvna mite outrage was received at 2 p m. from Tours, in the department of Iotroet Loira. Early this morn ing a bomb txploded near the Guise Barracks. Tne noise of the explosion was terrible, and lor time it was thought that Anarchists had attempted to blow np the powder works which are situated near Tours. ine populace ol tne city were greatly alarmed until it was definitely known that this was not the cause. Soldiers from tha bar racks at once ran to the spot where the explosion had occurred and lound a man lying senseless in a pool of blood. One of his hands had been blown off, and he was otherwise injured. No doubt is entertained that lie ia tbe victim ol his own crime. He waa taken to the1 hospital under arrest, and at last reports had not regained con sciousness. Since the explosion up to mid night Paris has been perfectly quiet. The streets have not even presented the bustle that is usual on a Sunday. Many persons, fear ing con tl icts between the police and workingmen. passed the day at home. There was no display ol police or soldiery, but every one knew that the authorities were ready to put dofcn with a strong band any attempt at disorder that might arise. London, May 1.

Father Tracy, pastor of St. I'aul's iioman Catholic Church, this morning ordered a policeman to eject Matthew Ciavnorand his I daughter, Vis8 Nellie Gaynor, who I have been members of the coDgre- nation. The oflicer refused, and the priest, drawing a revolver, forc d Gay nor to arise from his knees, and, pointing the weapon at his head, diovo him out of the edifice. The trouble is said by Miss Gay nor to be due to tho fact that she ! old. aud has known Massey. who is a youth of twenty, since they were children. Their intimacy was distasteful to the priest, who denounced such companionship from the pulpit, and finally, after warning the Gawiors, debarred them from church. On several occasions Father Tracy created a sensation by his bitter denunciat ons of members of the church whom he had watched and found gcilty of intemperance. He also denounced dancmg inserere terms some time ago, and on this occasion tiourisfted a revolver in the pulpit. Gaynor left for Tren ton today, where he will lay his complaint before Bishop O'F.nrell. FIRE AT NORFOLK. Cotton Warehouse Burned Los About ' 9?.). 1)00. Norfolk, Va , May -J.

Tho cool weather haa retarded the growth of all crops with us. The cotton crop haa been re duced in some portions oi the coun ty nearly half, in other portions it has been increased slightly. Tbe corn and pea acreage has been largely increased. With good cultivation we anticipate a large yield as the farmers in many ; instances turned their rich cotton fields over to raising corn. The Jones County Convention 1 convened on Saturday las". Benj. 1 Brock presided. Resolutions vrere i adopted by acclamation that have ! harmonized j differences. Alii iance men and other Democrats worked togethtr. but very few de- sired a different course of action 'and they were soon convinced that 1 we meant bu.-ire ;s. L. King, S. Hudson, A. P.

On a through eastern train of the Pennsylvania railroad one day all the seats in the car were taken except two. A lady sat in one, and a man from the west with a big sombrero occupied the other. He was a fine looking, manly fel low, and was taken by those around him for a la" , er. At the next station au nnatiractwe drum mer got on the car. Me seized np the situation at a glance. The lady was pretty, and that settled it. Without even asking her he sat down bv her, and at once com menced to make himself agree able. She tried to avoid hm, and look ed out of the window, but the fel low's eall was immaculate, and he maintained the one sided conversa tion. The western man was calm ly watching the proceeding, and stood ic as long as he could. Go ng np to the lady he said, 'Madam. I see that yon are an- ncved. Wouldn't vou prefer to have my seat?'' Oh, thank yon," she replied, "certainly,'' and the big man helped her to transfer her valise, while the other passengers tittered at the drummer's discom fiture. The latter was boiling over, but kept down his wrath until he got to Altoona, and tnen he demanded satisfaction for the insult. The words were scarcely ont of his mouth before the western man banged him on the jaw, and then with his boot kicked him around as a football. "Stand back!" yelled some of the tickled passengers. "Kick him hardei!" they shouted together, and that drummer finally crawled under a car to escape further punishment, a wiser and sadder man. Everybody wanted A.

Mo9t farmers consider poultry on the farm more of a nuisance than benefit and only tolerate fowls on the farm because the old women like to have them around, writes Aunt Betsy, in the Farmer and Breeder. Sach men either forget or ignore the fact that the good house-wife and her chickens sup ply most of the necessaries, such as coffee, tea, sugar, etc. Were it not lor this despised source of supply tbe husband would have to provide the hard cash lor the "store goods or go i without them and one that lives on a farm knows that there are "times when it is difficulty to get ready moaey. But fresh eggs and poul try will always bring the cash no difference what time in the year. Bat there is a class of progres sive farmers who have discovered and will acknowledge that poultry is of great value on the f;irm, and and every year we find a few more going into the business and trying to "grade up," as they cill it, by having a few thoroughbred roos ters. We find a few more wifliDg to take poultry papers and to learn from othens that they made it a success, but it is very nara to get so rue people out of the old rut. "You call's tell me anything about raising chickens, the old dung hill is just as good as your thorough bred. The trees are good enough o: hens to roost in.'' The hen is kicked about if she cornea into the barn, and all she gets to eat is what she steals: then if she don't lay "Chickens don't pay." Try building a hen house, one that is comfortable and warm, give the hens the same care other stock get, supply them with green loed, such as turnips, onions and pota toes, sometimes cooked and at others simply chopped or mashed; plenty of charcoal, lime, gravel or broken shells all of which the far mer can get witn a nttie irouDie generally on his own farm, and then with plenty of milk and fresh water, my word lor it, they will pay bester than aDy stock you have on the farm.
