' Something new is the translation of
the New Testament into the Scotch
of Barns by a Scotch-Canadian min
ister aged 80 years. In his translation
into the Scotch the Lord's Prayer
reads as follows :
"Fi.ither o ns a', b:din Aboon. Thy
name be holle ! Lat Thy reign Legin !
LatThy wuil be done, baith in irth
and Heevin ! Gie us ilka day oor need
ful feudin. And forgie us a' oor 111

us ill ; and lat us no be siftit ; but save
us frae the Ill-Ane ; for the croon is
Thine ain ; and the micht and the
;lorie, for evir and evir, Amen."
The N. C. Baptist, published at Fay-
ettiville, says that the Holt-Morgan
and the Tolar-Holt Cotton Mills,
which are situated a mile and a half
from Fayettiville, have entered into an
agreement for the erection and main
tenance of a good school for their op
eratives. The public school fund will
be supplemented by private fund and
the school will be made nine months
in the year.
These manufacturers have also
made a rule that no child under twelve
years shall work in their mills, and
these must be strong and able-bodied.
All the people will commend the wis
dom and prudence of such a course, and
other manufacturers will do well to
nave regard to the example here cited.
Rural mail delivery is a subject or
much prominence before the people of
this country now. It has been estab
lished in quite a number of States of
the Union and in many cases it is quite
successful. There are some routes in-
operation in North Carolina now, one in
New Hanover county especially which
has attracted attention, and
new ones to start in Wake soon.
The system designs to give the people
in the country districts their mail
every day delivered at their doors.
Congressman James M. Griggs, of
Georgia, contributes quite an interest
ing article to the Atlanta Journal on
the subject. Indeed he has pushed
the matter in Congress with more vig
or than any one else. . The first step
taken in the work, he says, was in 1893
when $10,000 was appropriated fur "ex
perimenting with free rural delivery."
The postmaster general declined to use
the money for such purpose and it was
turned back into the treasury. The
matter was taken up again in 1894
when Congress appropriated $2O,0C0,
and again the post office department
declined to use the money, but Post
master General Wilson agreed that if
the next Congres should insist be would
give it a test. Congress again appro
priated $10,000 and the work com
menced. In 1896 Congress appropriated $50,
000, and when Congressman Griggs
entered that body as a member from
Georgia he took up the matter and
pushed it vigorously. His bill asking
for a million dollars for rural delivery
work almost caused merriment in
Congress, but the appropriation was
made $150,000. Next year it was in
creased to $300,000. Then $150,000
was added and $450,000 was spent in
establishing rural delivery for the
year ending June 30, 1900.
The demand for the service grew and
Congressman Griggs maae the motion
which passed in the committee and in
the House that the amount for tLe
current year be $1,750,000. -
For Georgia Mr. Griggs predicts
that every farmer in the S tate will soon
have his mail . delivered at his gate,
and the life of the country people will
be greatly blessed by tho convenience.
It may yet become general.

THE PRESIDENT.
Chairman F, 21. Simmons Has Bent
THE FOLLOWING LETTER TO
PRESIDENT McZJNLEY.
Democratic Headquarters
State Executive Committee,
Raleigh N.C., July 16, 1900.
Honorable William McKiuley, the
President, Executive Mansion, Wash
ington City, D. C. :
Sir The people of this State will
hold a general State election on the
second day of August of this year, for
the purpose of electing county and State
officers and to take the sense of the
people upon a proposition to amend
the constitution of the State. No Fed
eral officer will be elected or voted for
at this election ; and before the nation
al election in November, under the
Mate election Jaw, the registration
books will be open for five daj's to
give every elector not already register
td an opportunity to have his came
placed on the registration books.
In the consideration and determin
ation of these purely local questions, I
respectfully submit that our people
are entitled to exemption lrom med
dlesome interference on the part of
Federal office holders, whether acting
officially, under color of their office, or
individually, by using the opportuni
ties given them to unduly influence
those with whom they are i vested in a
manner intended and calculated to
over awe and intimidate the electors
of the State in the exercise of tbeirfree
will at the ballot box, or the election
officers of the State in the discharge of
their official aunes.
Both as a citizen of this State and
is the chosen representative of a polit
ical party numhering 178,000 votera,
I feel warranted by the conditions now
sxisting in the State in making the
charge that your appointees located
in this State are now dally, and since
the inception of the political campaign
now in progress, have been flagrantly
and openly, without the slightest at
tempt at disguise or concealment,
using their official positions, the in
dividual mflnence which tbey give, the
opportunties which they affoi-d and
the power with which they invest
them, not only to control the conven
tions f.r.n the voters fit the political
party to which they belong, but to
unduly influence voters of the oppos
ition party, to coerce and intimidate
the individual citiienin theexercise of
his poll teal' right?, and to browbeat
and intirridate the election officers
of the State in the d'scl arge of their
duties, to the jjreat scandal of your ad
ministration anrI iu defiance of the
letter as well a the spirit and princi
ples of the constitution and the soeallerl
civil service laws of Congress,
to the maintenance of
which jour administration is
Hedged in the most solemn manner.
In making these charges I but give
expression to the righteous, protest of
the people of this btate against this
open infraction of the highest political
rights guaranteed to them by the com
pact between them and the Federal
government; namely, the right of eelf
oveanment, unhampered by Federal
interference.
So far has this thing of interference
by Federal office holders gone in this
State this year that if we were not en
gaged in the discussion and attempted
settlement of a question which vi t
affects our civilization, the paramount
issue in thio State to-day wuld be
whether we are to have goyernment by
the people or by the Federal office
holders. I beg most respectfully to give you
a brief outline and summary of some
of the facts upon which I base these
shaiges and statements :
The. Republican campaign in North
Carolina opened, with the meeting in
this city on the 18th day of May, 1900
of the Republican State convention.
This convention was largely a conven
tion of Federal office-holders. It wna
composed of two hundred and forty
delegates. A leading Republican ot
this city openly stated a few days sub
sequent to its adjournment that more
than half of these delegates held Fed
eral offices and that they completely
dominated its deliberations. A leading
newspaper of this city published dur
ing the session of this convention the
names of nearly one hundred of these
delegates, giving the Federal offices
held by each. I send you herewith the
names of some of those who were either
delegates or present, participating and
directing its deliberations. Among
them are numerous postmasters, deputy
marshals, store-keepers, gaugers collect
ors and customs deputies, census en
umerators, departmental officials, the
two collectors of internal revenae for
the eastern and western districts, the
district attorneys for these two districts,
etc.
This convention appointed delegates
to the National Republican conyention
at Philadelphia. I have not a list ol
these delegates, but the delegation was
composed largely of those holding the
chief Federal positions in the State,
among them Collectors of Internal
Revenue Ducan and Harkins and Post
master Bailey of this city.
The chairman of the State Executive
committtee of the Republican party
is the Hon. A. E. Holton, United
States district attorney for the Western
district of this State, and on this com
mittee are many of the leading Federal
office holders of the State.
It is notorious in this State that Fed
eral office-holders not only controlled
the State convention of the Republican
party this year, but that they have
COBESTwiME ALL tLS fAF!ST " "
Beet Cough Syrup. Tastes Good. tJse I
in time, ooia or a rums mm. i
been the dominating element in nearly
all the district and county conventions
of their party throughout the State.
They dictate the nominations, not only
of State officials, Congressmen and
electors, but cf county officers as well.
The two collectors of internal reve
nue for this State, by reason of the large
number of officers under them, are the
recognized managers and dominating
spirits in neariy all the conventions of
their party within their respective di
visions. They frequently attend in
person the district conventions within
their territory, aud through their in
fluence and that of their subordinates,
effect nominations. The Hon. Thomas
Sett'e ofAshville, ex-member of Con
gress, and the Hon. Isaac M. Meekins
of Elizabeth Citv, who has been victi
mized by the machinations of these
office-holders, can furnish you with
confirmatory evidence of these state
ments. Not only are Republican conventions
controlled by this element, but the
conventions of their political allies,
the Populists, are likewise so controlled.
In the late State convention of the
Populist party many of the leading
and most influential figues were men
holding positions to which you had
appointed them. While tbeie were
not as many delegates holding Federal
offices in this convention as in the
Republican convention, they were
qually as potential in shaping its policy
and it is a matter of general knowledge
in this State that it is this office hold
ing contigent iu the Populist party
which has forced upon it the unnatural
compact that today makes it to all in
tents and purposes a part of the Re
publican party.
In every section of this State deputy
collectors, deputy marshals, deputy col
lectors of customs, store-keepers and
gaugers, and clerks in these seyeral
departments of the service are conspic
uous for their activity in local politics.
Their offensive partisanship is the sub
ject of general remark and universal
scandal. Wherever they go in the
discharge of their duties they distribute
partisan literature and agitate in favor
of the candidates and policies of their
party. They attend public speakings,
sometimes travelling long distances to
do so, often travelling out of their di
visions. It Is openly charged that in
many instances persons engaged in
the sale and manufacture of liquor are
shown leniency or treated with harsh
ness by these subordinates for partisan
reasons. Recently the honor ble judge
of the Eastern district of North Caro
lina, in sentencing two negro post
masters appointed during 3Tour admin
istration, for defalcation in office, took
occasion to animadvert upon the seem
ing effort of certain Federal officials
to secure leniency for these offenders.
Since the beginning of this campaign
an attorney charged in open court in
his address to the jury that there was
an understanding between certain
illicit distillers and the revenue official?
to screen the former on account of theii
politics, and when the district attorney
demanded that he give the names of
places and persons he gave them both
without the slightest hesitation.
It is charged, and not denied, that in
many sections of the State fourth class
postmasters have been extremely and
offensively active in politics, discussing
partisan questions in and from their
offices and distributing partisan litera
ture. A census enumeration has just been
completed in this State. All of thes
enumerators were either Republicans
or fusion Populists. I have received
hundreds of complaints of the offensive
and political activity of these officer.
while engaged in the discharge of their
duties, not only in the destribut'on of
partisan literature by them as they
went about from house to house in
the discharge of their duties, but
frequently injecting into the inquir
ies which they were required by law
to make, inquiries as to the political
views and purposes of the citizen, with
reference to the political questions
now pending in this State, and in at
tempting to persuade in behalf of theii
party those whose political views they
might influence.
It is also currently rumored and un
derstood that the entire Federal office
holding body in this State, in utter
disregard of tbe ci vd service regulations
have been assessed for Republican and
fusion campaign purposes. Of course,
I do not pretend to know for what
purpose this money has been sent ;
tut the enclosed affidavit of W. Roy
Sonerviile will show how part of this
lund nas been invested. 1 send you
this affidavit because it establishes the
charges of offensive partisanship
which I have herein before preferred
against the collector of internal reven
ue and district attornev of the Westeri
district, and because it shows, if the
statements of Mr. Somerville are true,
a transaction not only partisan in Its
character, but, to say the least, of
questionable morals. Your attention
is called to the fact that the affidavit
shows they bought no interest in the
property of the paper, but only bought
the opinion and the conscience of
its editor-
Recently this State has been flooded
with circulars threatening the arrest ol
the State election officers under war
rants to be issued by the United States
commissioners, with the approval of
the Republican chairman as district
attorney of the Western district, and of
the district attorney of the Eastern, dis
trict. I herewith enclose you one of
these circulars. Strenuous efforts have
been made by the Republican State
chairman, who is also, as I have stated,
district attorney, to frighten these elec
tion officers into construing and enforc
ing our State registration laws in ac
cordance with his views of their mean
ing and the interests of the party he
represents. To accomplish this result
the fact that tbe chairman ot the lte-
Btanthe
Signature
The Kind You Haw Always EkwgM
! publican party is also United S ates
I district attorney has baen emphasized,
I for the purpose, it is believed, or sug-
gesting the idea that, as district attorn
i ey, he could invoke the authority of
the United states government to carry
out the threats made by him as chair
man. Only a few days ago two of these
registrars were arrested by United
States marshals under warrants sworn
out in the home town of the Western
district attorney and his assistant, and
approved by the latter. When these
registrars were brought to trial, al
though both of these officers were at
home during the whole time of tbe
trial, neither of them appeared to re
present the government; and although
the district attorney was in the court
room during the whole trial, he was
not present as prosecutor for the gov
ernment, but as the representative of
the Republican party, while the gov
ernment was represented by private
counsel who, during tbe trial, spoke of
themselves as representing the Repub
lican party. I have understood that
private counsel could only appear in
government prosecutions by consent
of the department. It may be that
the department had in this cas given
such consent ; if so, as the government'
attorneys were present and not other
wise engaged, there would seem to
have been no reason for the employ
ment of private counsel by the govern
ment, except that one of its prosecut
ing attorneys was chairman of a politi
cal organization, interested in the pros
ecution for political purposes, while
the other was a candidate for Con
gress, and in that way interested in tbe
result. This complication would seem
to justify the civil service regulation
against a government official holding
the position of manager of a political
organization.
Under this statement of facts, I sub
mit I am justified in calling your at
tention to the apparently organized
interference and the offensive activity
ot your appointees in this State in our
local politics and of their attempt to use
their official positions to influence tbe
results of the campaign now in prog
resc in this State, and in the interests
of the party with which they are affil
iated. I am, yours lespectfully,

Twenty Million Pins A Day.
Ifew York Herald.
It requires an average of more than
20,000,000 pins per day to sustain the
falling skirts, replace the missing sus
pender buttons and meet the other
needs of the American people. What
becomes of all these pins is a question
that nobody has been able to answer,
but thsre is ho falling off in tbe de
mand, so that this number must disap
pear in some manner every day.
It is bard to imagine anything sim
pler than a pin, and it is a strikicg
proof of the complications of our mod
ern industrial sye tem that every pin in
the course of its manufacture passes
through a dozen separate processes, in
volving the greatest skill on the part
of the operatives emyloyed and the
action of a great amount of automatic
machinery.
The pin makes its appearance at the
factory in the form of barrels of coiled
brass wire. The first process is that of
straightening the wire. The coils are
placed on revolving racks aud fed from
these into little machines, from thti
vise-like grip of which they emerge
perfectly straight. Thence the wire is
fed into the pin-making machine, which
is almost as complicated as a printing
press. A sharp knile cuts the wire off
into uniform length ot the desired
sizes. As each little length of wire
drops from the knile it 1. Us upon a
small wheel, the edges of which are
notched into grooves just large enough,
to hold the bits of wire.
Each piece is carried along by the
wheel until an iron finger and thumb
seize and hold it firmly, while an au
tomatic hammer, by a single smart
blow puts a head on one end. Then
the embryo pins fall upon another
grooved wheel, which revolves horizon
tally. As they move on in the clasp of
this second wheel tbe projecting ends
pass over a number of circular steel
files, which neatly grind them to a
point. Further on they encounter a
pumice stone, which smoothes off the
filed ead, and then they drop into a
wooden receiving box. S far no work
man's band has touched the pins in
their progress from the reel. The cut
ting, heading, pointing and smoothing
have all been doue by the wonde rf ul
automatic machinery.
From the wooden boxes the pins go
to the "whitening" room, where they
are cleaned in revolving barrels filled
with sawdust and receive a nickel coat
ing in big vats. Then they are dried
in tbe sawdust barrels and are run
through a "sorting" machine. It is
impossible to get tbe better of this ma
chine. The big department stores and
wholesale dealers buy their pins by tb?
case. A case contains 108 dozen pa
pers, 360 pins in each paper. A Single
order from the largest stores usual! v
cal's for 100 cases, or nearly 50,000,000
pins.

POOR TRUCK SEASON.
Virginian-Pilot, July 15th.
This is a disastrous season for truck
farmers," said a prominent railway offi
cial, speaking to a reporter for the
Virginian-Pilot. "It Is the worst season
they have experienced for several
years."
This official is In a position to know,
and he Is one of the best informed men
in the city. Hence the reporter went
among the shipping agents to get the
following details in confirmation of tne
railway official's statement.
The potato crop is the largest and
most important crop tbe truckers
grow. That is the one which shows
the greatest depreciation. Everybody
grows potatoes, consequently a depre
ciation in that crop is universally felt
Potatoes are selling at 75 cents to
$1.25 a barrel. This time last year
they were selling for $2.50 to $3.50 a
barrel. That is a tremendous fall in
price. It signifies $75 for a hundred
barrels which brought last year $250.
One trucker says that the largest po
tato grower in his neighborhood hits
declined to ship his potato crop at all.
The price is so low that the returns
will not pay the cost of harvesting
packing transporting. He is plowing
the ground to plant corn for fodder to
feed stock. The potatoes will be left
in tbe field to rot.
As to other crops, the returns are
variable but less disastrous than the
potato crop. Tomatoes are selling well
at $1.25 a carrier. That is a case that
contains two baskets. They could be
shipped profitably, or at least without
loss, tor 65 cents.
The cabbage crop was an excellent
yield, but the prices did not justify
shipping more than one-half of the
crop. The price at tbe end ot the
season fell to 50 and 75 cents a barrel
One-haif of the crop remained in the
field unharvested.
Asparagus was a short, email crop,
which paid well. But there are few
growers. The prices were good, $2 to
$4 a box of a dozen bunches.
The early crops of spinach and kale
were satisfactory. Not much isexpect
ed of them.
The strawberry crop was profitable
in spots. The long drought and the
cold, late spring deferred the maturity
of the berries till tfcey were too late to
get the high prices of the early mar
ket of the Northern cities. The price
declined and tbe quality of the berries
became inferior, so that a great many
fields were left unpicked. The price
ranged fr.m i to 14 cents a quart.
Thus It was about a stand-off on tbe
early crops. Farmers, therefore, ex
pected to realize their profits and pay
bills out of the returns of the potato
crop They have done neither. Hence
it seems true, as the railroad official
declares that this is a disastrous season
for the truck farmers.
