Salisbury. N. C. Oct *3 Speakiag of Republican claims that the Dingley tariff baa helped the working people of thia State, Senator Simmons aaid: "The Republicans daim that the Dingley tariff baa benefitted labor in this Stale. The report at Mr. Varner, our Commissioner of Labor for the year 1901 does not sustain this contention. This report shows that in fifty-three of the ninety seven counties of this State the fi nanrial comHtion of our working people in poor and that ia forty of them months their condition la not only poor, but ia not improving. An auulyab of this report shows that labor m the agricultural coun tiea is in In Hi 11 inuliliim than in the manufacturing counties. In the grent manufacturing county of Rutherford the financial oondhiou of our working people is reported poor and not iaqaoviug; in Rock ingham pom and not improving; in Montgomery poor and not improv ing; in Cumberland poor *wYnot improving; in Forsyth poor and not improving; in Cleveland poor and not improving; in Lincoln poor and not improving; in Cabarrus poor and not improving; in Mecklcn burg poor and not improving; in Durham bad and not improving; in Mitchell, the borne of mica, poor and not improving. "The improved financial condi tion of farm labor ia this State is not due to the tariff, because the staple products of the farm are not protected. But the un prosperous condition of the operatives in the cotton mills of this State is due in a very large measure directly to the high and oftiaaes prohibitory schedules of the Dingley tariff. These prohibitory schedules have brought disaster alike upon the mill owner and mill operatives in this State. By fostering monopo liatic trusts, they have raised the cost of living to these operatives, and by excluding foreign importa tions they are closing, and in many instances have already closed the doors to foreign markets to the sur plus products of these mills, and have thereby brought about a con dition of congestion and stagnation in this industry which has made an inert am in wagea impossible ■ "If the country is aa prosperous as Republicans tells us it is. if im periHsm or cnhmiaHsm, or whatever name you may give to our new for eign policy, is snch a great blessing to our cotton ndb and their em playeea: M the Dingier tariff meana prosperity to our manufacturing industries and their operatives, will some oae please tell me wby the cotton mills of North Carolina are — t! t ao amuey and the laborers in these mils are poor and getting no richer?"

C., Oct. «i —So few aa tuay be judged from what they are saying about it, the masses of the negroes here do not carc a fig about registering. Only a few have registered, and perhaps most of them do not even try. Your correspondent interrogated au ex-postmaster, a colored man wlio held office under McKinley. and he said he found no trouble in registering, and that the registrar treated liitn pleasantly, and did not seem to have any disposition to stickle on technicalities. Being asked if he thought it a hard law. be said he did not, but believed that if such a law had been |>assed twenty-flve years ago it would have been much ljetter for the negroes. Got. Boles Silences T&em Whenever the Democrats advo cate a repeal of the tariff duties on articles controlled by trusts which are sold cheaper abroad than in America, the Republicans declare that there is no connection between the tariff and trusts. To prove their statement they declare: "There are trusts in free trade England" and act as if that stale- I tnent proved their assertion. Ex-Governor Horace Boies, the Democratic candidate for Congress in the district now represented by Speaker Henderson, has mad? an effectual .eply to Republicans in Ohio who are making such asser tions as the one stated above. Gov. Boies makes this offer to bis oppo nents: "If yon can establish by compe tent testimony that there k one trust or combination of any kind in any free trade country that manu factures articles of necessity and makes a business of exporting them to other countries and selling thetn to mrkcu foreign to their own at prices substantially below tjese for which they sell the same articles in their home markets; as our trusts are doing every day, I .will pay every dollar of the expense of obtaining such evidence and withdraw from the field." It is needless to say that this challenge has not been accepted. In making it Governor Boies has given in a few sentences the strong est argument for tariff reduction of this year of able tariff speeches.— News and Observer.
