& MONEY FOR THE PE0FLE
e lu'ar it on all sides from -the
' l)enocratic press that the tariff mus
,b niade the chief issue during the
political campaign of 1892.
Tariff reform has been te issue of
the lemocratic party for forty years:
Uiul ive have attended Democratic ral
lies and heard many speeches by the
)enjocratic leaders, in its advocacy.
The issue might have been a gootl
One then, but opinion has very ma
terially changed among many of the
i - .. . . .
leoule duriOg the iast tew years.
A reform of the tariff a tax im-
ix)sejl upon .the luxuries of life in
ordel- to raise" a revenue for govern
mental ex penar would be a source
f great reli4efc to the people, but
wnaii on etirtu is rue use ol incessant
ly ceving for tariff reform when isuch
result is next to impossible to ac
complish.' , I r
The people of the country denian
the It rial of a new issue. The) be
lieve that more money in circulation
w of greater importance tlun to
chailipion , an issue, which in their
opinion, is practically ettete, '
T
One,
te principle involved is. a good
but it is too difficult to accom
plish the. result desired, and we1 be-
iev
that the majority of the voters
orth Carolina desire the lamich-
iug of a new issue.
j the money, question is one that is
ff greater interest to them and their

increase in the currency and the ?is
Juint pf. the same do the people is
t ne of iKe demands of the Alliance.
e dp not believe, that the members
will iubordinate it to auv other.
It may be argued that an untried
sue is dangerous, but we think that1
all objections to. trying it can be suc-
ce9sful answer when the Remand
for aerease 111 ;the voiumf ol cur
rent is so univerfaL C s t "
The battle for tariff-' reform has
jeeti waged so unsiyjcessfuRy that
we think it opportune fori tne trial
of another issue.-
While there are! thousands of peo-
pie who want the
volume of currency
increased there ntigt be Borne way by
which they could jobtain it.
To set at rest all difficulty of ob
taining money if
the volume is in
creased, the Sub-Trea8nry bill enact
ed into a law woujd be the means of
giving -money. direct to the people on
non-perishable farm' products.
From the Topeka Kansas Advocate
we clip thei following which is very
pertinent: j .-
"Joe Hudson! says he has absolute
ly demonstrated that money ; based
on land would j bej a most unstable
currency'. Behiamin Franklin, on
the other hand; demonstrated tnat it
was the most stabe currency in the
world. This is another illustration
of the observation! that 'great minds
will differ.'" '
lore money for
the! people and the
loaning .of the same direct to them
is oncpf the etronjgest and most im
portant planks in jthe Alliance plat
form. . . . . . :
WHERE WILL IT END. .
There is nothing so conducive to
success, as interest imd determination.
Well has it been Baid, that blessed is
that man, who hail found his calling
and i pursuing ifr This may apply
with equal force tti towns and cities.
.Some towns si,m U be dead and heed
less of all progress advancement
in any line w hatever. Why? Simply
Ix-'catise the inhabitants have no pride
for their honie anil possess no inter
est for its welt are;, buch men are
well termed -fogicss," whose 'highest
aim in life is tosnck the life blood
from everything within their reach,!
'- i . .
and leave the carcass for future gen
eratious to mourn over. How is it.
with Tarboro? Jet us see. Several
years ago, ithe town did look dead.
Her inhabitan ts sbemed to be layinsr'
back on their spoijs, while th6 busy!
world all around Ithem was spinning
on and expanding each moment intu
greater and grander , things. H
Not so i now, Tarboro is fully
abreast with the times, and outstrip-j
ping her sister tokvns in more waysj
than one r : I V
Her present indlnstries tell he tale
of progress and shbw a determination
oii the part of heri citizens to succeed.
The jneople of Tarboro have become
greatly interested dn themselves and
what they are doing. They are vainJ
enough to say, tbfy have great ad
vantages, possessed by feyt towns in
the State, i , ' . .
We shall just hre refer tajone pro
duct, i thats is desjtined to place her
right in the forefront, almost with
out a-warning. We refer -to our ton
bacco interest. I At the presentj
Edgecombe couldj hardly be s termed!
a regular tobacco kxrahty, because as!
yet she hits not palled from the pres
sure of the cottoii. plantJ But suffi
cient , evidence dan be r obtaind td
prove that! henceforth she will be a
tobacco county a:
id one of the first
type too. iEdgecqmbe has been term4
ed the greatest of
the cotton counties
and it seems
will hold this
t&at very soon ehd
putation as to to4
re
bacco. i And Tarboro is not behind
with this great mbTement. She has
provided herself with tobacco ware-
houses anil in fac
everything, that is
neccessary ; to meet the demands of
the time. Does day one asky where
all this will end? j It will end in tin
tupbuilding of a town wa all will be
proud of, an Eaistern town .with aj
Western , boom.
With the present
indications, Tarboro in less than five
years will double Jher population.
THE GREAT DESERT LAKE.
The west for tike last few ,days has
been exci tied over
the great flood thac
has covered a large portion of the
Colorado Pesert
The flow of water
is sui'iposefl; to cbme from the CoIch
rado riTr, that'
is several hundred
feet higher . thauj the desert, as thh
River has been falling very fast evei
since the water made its appearance
round about Saltan.
A late dispatch froni fcial ton says a
strong wind last night forced thtj
north 6hore of ihe new lake bacis
about 200 feet ( Another dispatch
from Salton sayss-
5'If the water oomea from the Col
orado River there must now be enougl
between here and the river to nearly
fill this basin, an 1 most likely react
the main hue of the Southern Pacific.
All the Jlat part of the basin i is noJ
covered with water, and the depth wil
increase much faster.
' "Section men 4re making efforts to
save the railroad spur, but the wateJ
is hot, and it is feared the men can
not endure iC' The water is warmest
at the bottom, j ' f
This phenomena of the Desert wil
be watcned with; interest A great
many explanations have been given,
but the true cause has not yet been
found. Suffice it to say, if newspa
per reports be; true, some great iu4
ternal force is at work among thtj
ltocky Mountains, as evidenced by
the slight earth ojuake, felt in SoutW
California and jalong the jracifid
Coast- " ;

The love of I liberty, the hand -of
oppression, thej dictates of conscience,
and the desire to live and to act in
accordance with self-formed ideas
and active bodily qualities were sure
ly the parents of this land of purs and
Have beenr the guiding principles

vocation ox niimg .ine soii; toojung
not to mere pomp and, show but liv
ing in unity and using! brain and
brawn in every make up of life.
Unity was a noted quality among
them yet history leads us to believe
that each and every man thought
first for the general welfare of his
people and again for his own, not to
the extent of injuring or over-ruling
others, however. One hundred ears
ago, revolution pervaded this land,
and the; nation had to exert itself to
the utmost to make for itself a foun
dation solid and sure, in the jhope
that a happy future would follow, j
All well khow that the instigators,
participants and victors of this "strug
gle were hi the main only men fol
followihg the humble yet honest
work of seeking a living from the
bosom of the earth; they fought from
the fact that they believed in right,
justice and equality; they fought
well; they won. ? '
Every age, -every land has its eras
of progress and times of dissensions,
and scarce are the people whose lot
,is one of peace and liberty. The
times we are how living in are made
up of manifold hardships brought on
by unjust leaders that seek to satisfy
self -greed to the extent of drawing
the life blood of a,uation. ; ,
Various are the means by which
extortion is carried on and; when the
poor farmer is made the target Of
such gross aims, why is he not justi-
naoie in asserting nis ngnis.- -
When he begins to realize the
the true bent of affairs and see how
base the tendency; does it not behoove
him to rear his hand in self defence?
"Security - gives way to conspir-
ancir is true in all tunes and is ap
plicable to ' every people, t Doubtless
when Cornwallis laid down arms, the
universal idea . was that everything
rested on a solid' foundation and that
right would, be might ever afterward.
llow far from tms was to be tne re
sult however? ! Well would it hate
been for the people at large to have
kept an eye on the movement of af
fairs, notwithstanding the apparent
just state. Does not the present tide
of this nations tendencies prove this?
Lead men to ask what is the "root of
all this evil" and infuse a desire to
ferret out and to overturn all money
changers and nnjust men in their
wrongdoings? '
. How long have slept the minds of
the many in regard to this stirring
question? At last however men are
leaving their' dormant state and com
mg t orth as tne morning sun to see
all things. They feel the weight of
an oppressive burden growing heavier
and are opening their eyes at to the
source whence it comes,' what it ; is,
and how to get rid of it.
' Every thinking mind knows there
is evfl m the land and that some
thing is wrong in the distribution of
power," of comfort, and every other
feature helping to form this land of
ours; other lands are equally as much
perplexed, and weighed down by the
hand of oppression, but perhaps no
other is at present seeking harder to
find out the way to remedy like evils.
This is an active question with us
and yet it needs "stirring lest if burn
until it is worthless." . i
Many are the' reasons given in re
gard to these things, still no one
seeks to correct -haa sought to cor
rect; on the other hand when those
being severely atangbegin to formu
Jate plans jof relief, many who are
revelling in the unjust possessions
wrung from the rightful owners are
ready to howl oyer ,the nonsense of
of such things and devise every means
of restraint and, prevention possible.
Ableminds have shown all these
things to be so; all know the issues
well enough to form an opinion as to
the right and wrong. 1 v i
Thepoint is this, are not the far
merg right in their aim' to demand
justice, to assert their rights, to show
themselves made of back-bone and
not allow all their rights and sub
stance to be taken? In answer it
ought to be child's idea that they i

That the laborer is worthy of his
hire strikes to the point" in IheTar-
mers questions. -Does ' the present
laboring man receive his hire? Does
be sharethe .benefitofeojfrn
ment he lives : under? Such queries
are easily answered.' Far, from it;
when we note the tmequal sway of
rule, readily do we see that he bears
the brant of ' the nation's drudgery
and on the " other hand receives ex
tortion, unjust legislation, and many
otner oppressive measures, all
amounting to mere outrage in the
end. ; ' ". )
At last, men are grasping the situ
ation and are resolving daily to ferret
out the evils. Farmers are not
seeking to rule, they are seeking to
gain justice so to shape the forms of
laws as to give all a chance to live.
I Think of starvation in this land
of plenty: this has been the case.
Does it not behoove some one to seek
redress? Why not the farmers?
Some months ago one of . the men
of our times discussed the "Moral
import of this order, which may
be termed The Farmers' Cause" or
"The Farmers Allianee," and went
to the teachings oil the model man,
Jesus, for proof of its being, right
and it is said they ably defended the
cause. With . Da vine - unction fol
lowing its movement, why can it not
lead to a change, to ; adjustment of
of affairs, and to right? In our pres
ent situation many feel like this
move is the last hope, therefore I say
fellow farmer be not. daunted, be
eager; be resolute, be f brave, and if
the will is there make the way; Once
to the plow turn not i back;" Pursue
the risrht with richt i and stand to
your color, when once enlisted.
It is time for men to act and to
check the evil desires of those' who
seek to uplift self and tread under
foot those who constitute the back

This or Something Better.
Many people look upon the sub
trea8ury plan as being nothing but
a scheme for the especial benefit of
those who have prodiice to store. A'
great many of the objectors to the
sub-treasury favor free and unlimited
coinage of silver. Just why they
favor the one and oppose , the other
is not quite clear. It is plainly evi
dent that if you make ,gold and sil
ver the only money iof the country
you give the owners of gold' and sil
ver mines a monopoly of the money
supply and force the. government to
do a service for them that is denied
those who are so unfortunate '. as to
not have any gold or silver bullion
on hand.' Since gold t nor silver is
not motiftv until made sh bv. the pov-
ernment, why not have a more liberal
nnanciai policy wnicn can oe exten
ded to the masses of 'the people and 1
issue them, legal tenders on the non- !
perishable products of their labor in j
such manner as to meet the .require-:
ments and in , amounts sufficient to !
do the business of: the country on
anything near a cash ' basia? The ;
sub-treasury is not a scheme : for the
especial benefit of. any class bat a plan
to extend the financial policy of the j
government to where it will reach .
those who need it most with the least
expense to them at i the same time
makinsr the srovernment iust as safe
and as secure as it now is or ever has!
been under any. system of finance
heretofore in existence. An improper
conception of the underlying princi
ple on which the subtreasnry plan
is based has lead to a great deal of
great
the opposition against it. This
coupled with a degree of prejudice
against new methods and a favoritism
for things of a hoary nature that
prevades the human heart to a greater
or lesser extent makes many of those
who should be the friends of the sub
treasury its enemies: Those who are
pitted against the measure seek to
throw over it the colors of class legr
islation by constant asserting and
endeavoring to prove that it would
be ruinous to the farmer, thus forcing
its advocates to the defensive and
compelling them: to show why it
would not be ruinous to the farmer
and1 wherein it would benefit them.
If it would not be any benefit to the
farmer, no man with" any principle
would advocate it khovriug- such to
be the case. Howefer the mere mat
ter of being a "boon to the farmer"
does not carry with it the inference
that if would be so at the expense of
any other class. Quite to the ' con
trary. Everybody knows who knows
anything about it, that when the ag
ricultural classes have money they
spend it in order to satisfy, their . im
mediate wants, f They form no corn
ers nor combines to speculate off of
Other men's misfortunes , or neces
sities. As times are flush and all
lines of business . prosperous when
plenty of money is in circulation
does it not follow that a greater bene
fit would accrue to the people: from
issuing money to the farmers than
from; coining it free to owners of
gold and silver mines or under the
present system loaning to national
bank? You people who are opposing
this measure, think of these things!
wwuBij mm sooeny ana witnout
prejudice, Reflect over the fact that
no government on earth ever had a
perfect system of finance and that
the best of governments hive in many
respects been miserable, failures.
Think over the matter in a manner
calculated to do 1 yourself good.
