Vote the Democratic ticket be came of the principles of the party. Axwepting a republic as the pys tern of government bost adapted to the preservation of liberty, it in sists upon the largest freedom of the citizen, and demands a ( Jovorn ment of the People, for the people and by the people. It permits no man, nor any combination of men. to lord it over the pooole. -'Equal rights to all, special privileges to none," is the motto mscn bod on all its banners. With reference to the paramount isaae-s of the day, it declares in fa vor of the elevation of silver to a parity with gold, the free coinage of both metals, and a volume of i-nrronrr f nnil tn the demands of country; the reduction of the tariff i .1 n IU m I C CU ownimiu mai "in met the Pne of the ( iovern- ment economically administered, and the absolute control of elec tions by the 8lt( In which they j are .held, without the slightest in , terfereace by the federal govern ment or any other potfer.

The tariff is a burning issue but local self government is the corner-stone of Democracy. Remove ir, and the republican fabric falls.

A stand , np pi'tiare fight of man against man is the thing with the boys in! the rural districts. j Now, we do not complain that in politics it is different. If the op- I'mocnu-y divide their forces prefer to J into three columns, it is all right. The Napoleon method of attacking them in detail would soon wipe them onf; but there are evidences that they are converging to a com mon center where they will offer battle, under one leader, to the Democratic party The Republican, Peoples' and Prohibition parties are as wide apart on political questions, as the polls, but thoy will unite to defeat the Democracy. They will pool their issues, hold conscience in abeyance, and persne the course best calculated to embarrass the Democratic party. Prohibitionists, as a genera.1 rule, are born Democrats. Very few of them could be induced to vote for a Republican; Republicans bow ever -nil vote for anybody the Devil himself in order to take a single State from the Democratic column. Republicans know very well that the national race is bt- tween the Democratic and Republi , Practicing the Uolden Rule, can parties, and if, by any combi- j ' h.- Elizabeth City correspondent of nation, a State is taken from the I ::" Norfolk Landmark sends it the f.,1 Democratie party the probability i '' u iu'ni of liepublican success is thereby ! increased. Republicans are counting very largely upon the People's patty. ! They know very well that the farmers of the country cannot be induced to vote for Republican i candidates, but if they vote for 1 their own caudidates, and thus j take thousands of votes from the 1 Democrati. ticket, tli" object of ; Republican management will be accomplished. Thedangerin North Carolina is largely on account of the rapidity of Republican organization. Ton da are ample for them to wheel1 their forces into any column. If they are in donbt of their ability to carry the State for their own party. 1 they can throw their vote to the People's or the Prohibition party and thus defeat the Democratic ; party. There is but one sate course for' any man to pursue who is opposed to Republican ascendency in the Nation and in the State, and that is to stand up Mj'iarly to the Demo cratic party. Twenty votes for Prohibition, and ten tor the People's party, may mean a retnrntothe dark days of reconstruction in North Carolina.

Farmer A. can carry twice the load Farmer B. can carry, for he lives on the worn out road. Both sell their products and get exactly the same ptice. It has cost Farmer B. more to bring his win at or cotton to Nashville, but thc buye r does not care for this, and he ci r- tainly is not going to pay Farniee B. for living on a bad road. It is the conn in of the tanner above everybody else to have good roads and to have them good all the year around. It costs much to haul your products In market and to haul your supplies home. ( 'n a gooel road, one horse and one man can do as much as two horses and two men. A wagon will last twice a-long rolling over a smooth road a- it will roll ind over a rough road. Here is an expense that must lie re duced. It i:, heavy, and increases the cost without increasing the price of every bushel of wheat and every bale of cot ton. . Farmers, what will vou do about ( Seaside Sermons. Wchave received from the author and publisher, Rev. Right C. Moore, uf More head, a copy of ''Seaside Sermons" in a neat pamphlet of 54 pages. It consists of seven excellent and prac tical sermons suited to the affairs of or dinary every day life. Those on the "Abuse of the Tongue" "Sabbath Dese cration," "Irreverance:" Profanity." "The Saloon the, City and the Church'' contain plain truths too often not recognized and which cannot be too thoroughly inculca ted and the concluding scrrfions on "The Holly and the Christ" and "Samson" give spiritual instructions worth pondering upon. The sermons were published by re quest of Mr. Moore's congregation. They make a valuable little book which can he procured trom the author at 2ii cents per copy. The Late Crop or Irish Potatoes in the South. The above is the title of an interesting bulletin, No. 85, of the N. C. agricultur al experiment station, by Prof. W. F. Massey, horticulturalist of the station. The subject is an important one and the industry based upon it is destinod to be come a most valuable one to thc south. Of the many thousands of barrels of seed potatoes now annually brought from the north both for seeel and food, a few years hence will be reduced to as many hun dreds. The truckers in the east Atlantic states to a large extent now plant home-grown potatoes for the second crop, and it will not be long before the practice will be come universal. These potatoes are dis tilled also to supply the food market to the exclusion of northern grown pota toes. The important points to observe in planting arc: Betl the seed in the soil until planting time about thc second week in August and use only sprouted potatoes. Never cut the potatoes but plant whole. Plant in a dee) furrow, but cover very lightly and pack the soil to the seed. Gradually fill in the soil to the plants as they grow, am -ultiv.ate the crop perfectly flat. Suggestions as to keeping the late crop will be found in the above bulletin a- W('" llH experiences ol many truckers won this new crop. A Scurvy Piece of Business. After the death of Chang and Lug. some of the ''big Northern doctors" no less than Dr. Agnew, of Philadelphia, at the head applied to the family for tin privilege for thc sake ol' science, etc , of making a post mortem examination. They olfered to pay all expenses, and a regular contract was made out and sign- Thc bodies were taken hia, and the autopsy held to I'hiladei- sence ot a number ot physicians. hen j thev were done with it Dr. Agnew telc- graphed thc family that th "bodies wore l at their disposal, and as the contract was signed "n Sunday ot course it was not valid.. It i- a fact the family then had to send money to pay the autopsy them selves, as they paid the full amount on the carriage of the bodies to and from Philadelphia. They afterwards had to guard them for a long time, as threat were intulc ot' stealing their remains.
