more - rigid economy, and are
making their crops cost much less
th&a they did formerly. The
situation is slowly improving, and

to the demands for regular labor
much better than they used to.

are beginning to be more forehand

Batlvr's LiUleuesg Xade Manifest ia
HU Own Paper
Hon. Y. M. Simmons and Mr.
Marion Batler had a debate a few
weeks ago at Jordon's store, ia this
coanty, which was reported the
next day in the Argus, showing
how utterly and completely Batler
haa iaiied to answer tbe over
whelming arguments of Mr. Sim
mons and the great delight and
rejoicings of the JJemocrats that
he haa completely demolished the
leader ot the Pophsts.
Batler having been utterly root
ed and unable to answer on the
day of the debate, and smarting
under his defeat, conceived tbe
brilliant idea of writing a brief
little speech for Mr. Simmons,
publishing in his paper as tbe
speech made Mr. Simmons, and
then answering this sham ana
fictitious article in his own columns.
He has already devoted a good
part of two issues of bis papei aad
will, he sajs, continue it in this
week's paper, giving his answer
to the speech he has written him
self for Mr. Simmons.
Neither ot the two speeches he has
written and is now publishing ana
trying to get of! on bis readers as
the genuine speeches of Mr. Sim
mons and himself, made at the
time of the debate, have, we learn
from a number of persons who
heard them, scarcely a resemblance
to the speeches then made.
Butler did not and could not
suooeesfnlly answer Mr. Simmons's
speech in the debate, neither can
he do it after weeks of study and
reflection, because, the real speech
made by him is unanswerable; so
Butler cunningly sets up a bogus
speech in his own paper and pro
ceeds to answer it with posthumous
arguments.
The performance is V6ry dis
creditable to Batler and to jour
nalism, because it is not honest.
But it is in keeping with the fraud,
hypocrisy and falsehood which has
all along characterized his party.
We have seen a good many who
heard the speeches in question,
and there is but one opinion, so far
as we have heard, and that is that
Simmons gave Butler a flogging
whioh he will not forget or forgive
if he lives a thousand years. The
Democrats oi Grantham's town
ship are greatly delighted over the
result of tbe debate and say it
made many votes for our party.

Assoranae of Democrats Controlling

Caught Xo Danger From the
Snall-pox Do Tenr Duty
by Democracy.
Senator Faulkner says be feels
confident from nd vices received
from all parts of the Union, that
tbe democrats will control the next
House of Representatives by a
good majority. He says farther
that he cannot give out any specific
information about the various con.
gressional districts because by so
doing, he would give the republi
cans an opportunity to avail them
selves of euoh information.
I was told this morning that Mr.
Cleveland would wait until the
nominees in the Empire State were
fully decided on, and then he would
publicly announce himself hear
tily in favor of the election of
every candidate for democratic
votes. When he makes this an
nouncement it is probable that Mr.
Carlisle, Mr. Hoke Smith, and other
members of the cabinet will go to
New York and do all in their power
to bring out a fall democratic vote.
Those who know Mr, Cleveland
best are convinced that he will
spare no pains to keep New York
state in tbe democratic column.
Those who intimate to the contrary
virtually accuse the democratic
President ot treachery to his party.
There is nothing in Mr. 01eveland;s
pst record to justify such an ac
cusation. The stamp thieves, from Bennett
sville, S. C, have been arrested
and are in the hands of the Post
Office Department.
There are several cases of small
pox in this city. The health officer
says there is no danger ot the dis
easebe coming epidemic.
The death of the Czar of Russia
is, momentarily expected. When he
dies the Russian Embassy here
will go into mourning for one year,
and will take no part whatever in
tbe social functions at the capital.
The P.-esident will send an un
usually genuine message of condol
ance to tbe Russian Government
because of the very kindly relations
which exist between the two gov
ernments. As the 2Gth of November draws
near, democrats everywhere should
bear in mind that personal animo
sities and petty jealousies should
now he made to yield to a sense of
party duty. The supremacy of the
democratic party is what loyal
democrats will strive to preserve.
It is no longer a question of this
man or that man, but tbe continu
ed dominance of that party on
which the welfare and prosperity of
the south depend. Experience un.
der republican rule has taught our
people what that means. As the
election day draws near let every
democrat be prepared to cast his
vote for the democratic nominees,
regardless of personal prejudices or
preferences.

those which relate to !be election
machinery and to the special re
strictions that are imposed upon
the condact of the people elec
tion, It specifies of these laws,
the article is in so tiaiel-- and
writteu iu o admirable a v-o that
weoopy it entire.
Tuesday, Nov. (J:h is election
day in North Carolina. It is a day
of decision aud destiny. The can
vass h.i8 been spirited, and the
day is looked forward to by many
with no little interest.
Tbe board of county commission
ers have power to establish polling
places, select registrars, appoint
judges of election, provide ballot
boxes lor each class of officers aud
have general oversight. The mem
bers of the everal boards ol elec
tion in the county shall constitute
the board of county canvassers,
who shall meet on the second day
after the election. They shall
choose one of their number as
chairman, and all solemnly sivear
that they will faithfully perform
their duties. This is a very deli
cate duty, and on whioh requires
greatly integrity and around
which should be thrown every
safeguard.
All desire a fiir couni, for upon
this depends largely the stability
of our government. This is some
thing interesting and assuring in
the machinery of our election,
which, the more we study, the more
we admire. For the non-performance
of these duties there is a
heavy penalty. Wilful or ma
licious neglect, fraudulent regis
tration or voting, corruptly taking
the oath prescribed for voters, are
all carefally provided against with
heavy penalties. These penalties
derive their strength, and these
duties their sanctity, from an
enlightened public sentiment.
The following law is specific
against treating: "Any person
who shall treat with either meat
or drink on auy day of election, or
on any day pievious thereto, with
intent to icduence the election,
shall forfeit and pay two hundred
dollars; the one half for tbe use
of the person who shall sqe for the
same.''
Intimidation of voters is pro
vided against as followg: "Any
person who t-hall discbarge from
employment, withdraw patronage
from, or otherwise injure, threaten,
oppress or attempt to intimidate
any qualified oter of this State
because of the vote such voter
may or may not have oast ia any
election, shall be guilty oi a misde
meanor." Bribery at electious prohibited
in equally strong terms, and the
following statute against betting
on elections is worth reading at
this time, and in this day of the
gambling mania: "Any person
who shall bet or wager any money,
or other ihing of value, upon any
election held in this State, shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor,"
Tbe laws are good enough. Let
every free and ardent sou of North
Carolina see that, so far as in him
lies, they shall be obeyed. We may
well be proud of such a system of
government as we have. It be
hooves us to band it down unsul
lied and fctrong to those who come
after us.
A TERRIBLE DUEL.
Between a onn? Woman and a Van In
Oklahoma Territory.
Peeey, Oot. 16. A terrible duel
was fought between Miss Agnes
Jones, a yonng lady about 21 years
of age, and Sam Bartell, 3.3 years
-ld, on a homestead twenty miles
north of there yesterday. Miss
Jones obtained the home stead
wheu the Cherokee strp was
opened in September 1S93, and had
built a neat home.
Two months ago she went to visit
her parents in Kansas, and Sam
Bartell Jumped the claim and
moved his effects itito Miss Jones'
bouae. She returned yesteiday
and found her home occupied. Shs
gave orders lor it to be vacated at
once, which Bartell refused to do,
and she pulled a revolver from
under her apron and opened fire
on Bartell. Bartell returned the
fire but missed the woman. Three
of her shots took effect in Bartell's
body, from the effects ot which he
died.

We occupy new positions in the

land domestic arrangements. The
! effect of which and tho object in
view has been te dispense with'
I manual 1 ibor. One man executes;
all that two did formerly. Ade-1
quate means for the employment ot '
surplus labor have not Kept jaee
with us increas3, and confussion is
tberet-nlt. Supplies are largely in
excess ot demand and labor it :
standing in the market places idle.
An idle population ia a menace
to society and to the government j
wherever it ex.sts. If tbe cotton
fields, tbe wheat fields should go
to weeds a year and the boxes be
left to rest, turpentine, cotton and,
wheat would rise in price. Oar
tarmers have been warned of the
ioily of over production and con-'
cert of action has been urged upon j
them looking to reductions in the
crops without avail. j
It has been said that any com-,
munity adapted to this country can !
be produced at short notice in saffi-
pient quantities 'o glut the markets j
of the world. Speculators and;
combines keeping themselves ;
posted in regard to supply aud de- j
maud interfere temporarily to get j
the inside track on the producer.
When an article is short, they, j
knowing it In advance, secure the
bulk of it and dictate the price.
In a free country there is no wav 1
to prevent these sharp practices, j
Individuals often avail themselves '
of euoh opportunities anu they nee
no crime in their deals. In times
of inflated currency, consumption is
increased and economic methods
are less observed
But there is a limit to consump
tion and tbe capital of the world
declines at present to take dollar
wheat, ten cent cotton and 3 dollar
turpentine. It has done the same
thing before. But what had the
Democratic or the Republican par
ties to do with these conditions. In
some remote way it is probable
that our commercial relations may
be so manipulated as to open up
new markets lor our supplies which
the party in power is likely to ac
complish under its favorable tariff
regulations.
In 1844 the writer sold 200 bales
ot cotton in Petersburg, Va., at (3
cents. Iu those days the all cot
ton plan was not the shibboleth;
the people refused to make it. The
result was that cotton trebled or
nearly so in value. The decline
aud rise occurred under a Demo
cratic administration. Tho gov
ernment had nothing to do with
that. Before Mr. Cleveland's time
expires upon the principle that one
extreme follows another we may
expect an appreciation in values of
several articles that have declined
below tbe cost of production. It is
a natural sequence.
Wage earners have no just cause
of complaint. Few ol them lay by
anything. There may be and is
trouble to find employment. When
ajob is found at 50 cents per day
his renumeration was never any
better. He gets 25 lbs of flour or
10 yards calico or cloth, 10 lbs
sugar, an onnce of quinine and so
on. He did not complain in past
times when be rfot only J as much.
He lives as veil as he ever did. It
is a question lor him whether he
will oe led away from the Demo
cratic party.after a will 'o the wisp
floundering in the morasses which
has no objective point has left the
principles it had in abeyance on ac
count of incongruity and which has
withered like a burning sirocco the
fair lands it has touched.
A league of business men of the
city of Denver, Colorado, composed
of KepuDlicans, Populists and
Democrats organized to promote
business intsrests only. In a let
ter to the National Republican
Committee says "that since the
Populist got control of Colorada
values have shrunk &30u,000,000.
$100,000,000 in this town. On ac
count of inimical legislation capi
tal has left our borders.
"Before the advent of that party
our borrowing capacity was equal
to that of New York. Work was
progressing on our irrigating: sys
tem and not lees than 20U.OOO peo
ple from our neighboring States
were looking to our rich lauds for
homes. We can't now get a dol
lar on our securities and our pros
pects have turned to ashes on our
lips."
Turn your eye to our good old
county of Catawba now with a
large debt under Third jaity rule
for the first time in her history.
'Tis better to stand with the Demo
crats. They have never deceived
the people. Their march is always
in the direction of good govern
ment. They favor all the latitude
to liberty consistent with peace
and safety, the greatest good to
the greatest number. They always
get there. Let's have no mutiny
in the camp.

industry ot that beam
We had the pleasure
the strawberrv farm
Westbiook, at 6'out's bay, on New
river, some time, ago, aud if we are
allowed to judge we will say, we
concluded that trucking and fruit
raising could be carried ou wi'h
great success aud profit. The
mildness of the t.-mpei ature 'n
winter and early spiiag, is a tactor
to be considered in such a business.
We were told that duiing the se
vere cold weather winter before
hist, the ice did not get more thau
from one to two inches thick and
was soft so that fishing and oyeter
ing w.-is not much impeded while
we had it from 10 to 1 ! inches
thick aud as hard as a mill stone,
at this pi ice.
The ocean is so near to that
favored region, as wed as the
balmy air from the Gulf stream,
believed to be not more than 20 or
30 miles distant from New river,
renders it, a most delightful wmttr
resort, and
think, for
very favorable, so we
the thorough develop
ment ot the various enterprises
there.
We hope to see The Journal

Little Honey,

riie time lor .Autumn harvest i.Sji,,
heie agaiu, and the resiut of the j w
year's labor will scon be known. I.
Strictly speaking it is "seed!1,1
time and haivest' here in the
trucking region, nearly all the
year; for iu the genial climate aud
varied soil of our section, there is
! not a month in the year, in which
I something may not be planted with
ia very fair prospect of a good bar
1 vest.
i Some plantings this ye.ir have
j tailed, and some have brought
J forth bountifully.
The Autumn harvest is the mst
important of the year. We are
putting in '-stoie'' the substantial-:
01 temporal nte, the f'ra;u, grass
and root crops: early curu is gener
ally turning out well.
And our complaint is ratner the
opposite of Bill Arp's Georgia
farmers. He said they had no
"nubbiuga"' for the hogs. and
it was all large corn. We have
very few "hogs" nor the n 11 things
or large corn either, but ii the hog
crop proves very shoit, it is gen
erally known that corn-bread and
butter is healthful to a much
greater extent than a constant use
of pork.
A farmer of the second township,
when asked a few d;v, s since about
the harvest prospects, said:
"There's plenty of bread, no money
to pay debts, out he had a good
cow and a good "possum'" dog and
coul ) pud through all right ii just
U-t a'one."
This harvest of lS'.M, is quite
good in many respects, but it is not
a good one for paying debts, unless
the debts could be graded like the
cotton.
The sweet potato crop is turning
out good, sometimes very good,
and no one who has 11 .t tried it,
knows what a luxuiy a good swee',
potatoe, well roasted and nice
cup of sweet milk makes.
It would be well if the farmers
would organize into a "Non-com-ulaining
Society" aad meet once a
month to discuss the blessings aud
advantages of farm lite.
It might make us all better, hap
pier and wiser.
Harvest; time Hnggests the sum
tiling up and balancing of accounts
for the year, it also suggests a
fin-d balance sheet a closing year's
u ork, a final harvest, atime when
we inns': reap the final harvest of
our Spring time sowing. A pointed
quesi.on, important to all is.
' W hat shall the final luive-t he."'
