"THE LITPLK HIGn CHI-VK
Th ere was an aue'ion at one of the
down town auction Wises recently. A
pale sud-fsced wmuan, in a plain ealico
gown, stned in the ;rod. The loud
voieed auetioueir at last came to a lot
of plain and somewhat shabby old fur
niture. It bad belonged to a pal wo.
unn, and waa being told lo satisfy the
mortgage on it. Onn by one the arti
cles were suld, the eld bureau to one,
the cay rocker to another, and the bed
stead to a third. Finally the auction,
eer hauled out a child's hij;U chair. It
waa ill aid rickety, aud a the auction
eer held it upcvirybody laughed every
body except the pale hoed wouian, and
a tear trickled down her cneek.
The auctioneer law it. and somehow
a lump see red to come up in his throat.
And his gruff voice grew toft. lie re
membered a little hijjb chair at home,
aud how it bad once filled his life with
sunshine.
It was empty now The baby laugh,
tha two little hands that wereouee held
out to greet papa from that lub chair,
were gone foicver. He taw the pale
faced woman's piteous looks, and knew
that iu ber eye the little high ehair waa
more pruvious than if it bad been tuaiie
ofjfnidaud studded with diamonds,
lu iuiaginaiion ha could sea tho little ,
dimpled cherub which it ouce held
:uld see the little chubby fist (rasping
the tin rattle but and pounding the chair
full nt uicks; could see the little feet
which had rubbed the paint off tbe legs:
he could bear the crowing and laughing
in glee, and now the ,'ittle high chair
was empty. lie knew there was an
aching void in the pale-faced woman's
heart-, as there was in his own.
"Don't laugh!'' said tbe auctioneer
softly, as somebody facetiously offered
tec cents ' lany of you have little
empty high chairs at home, which men.
ey would not tempt you to part with."
1 bee he handed tbe clerk a bill out of
his own pooktt, aud remarked, "sold to
the lady over there," aud tho pale faced
woman walked out, with the little high
chair claspeu in ber arms, and tears
streamed down her checks. Tbe erowd
stood baek respectfully, aud tbere iu t
suspicious moisture in tbe eves of tbe
ssau whe had bid ten eeut.
A so-called lodepenpendeiit Conven
tion was held at Asbeville, but from a
report in the Citizen it was a very Rad.
ieal show Twenty-eight Rads nomina
ted their candidates. No Independent
got a showing, but Mr. Richmond Pear
son was well pleased and "orate 1" after
his usual style of "lndepcndontism."
He ought to quit posing as one of that
stripe. He is a Radical at heart, we
bare no doubt, and he ought to come out
tn his real colors. Tha negro had no
ebanoe. Pearson tail be would support
tbe Radical ticket Boaiiuated and weald

NORTH CAROMSA DEMOURA-CV.
PLATFORM OF PARTY" ADOPTED. IN
STATE I'OSVK.ITIDN AT IIAI--EKIII,
MAV,
We again eoud(ratuIate the people of
Korth Carolina on the noutiuiled enjey.
tnent nf ueuce. irnod zovernnient ami
general proporiy under louiocrati
admiuistrattuu of the State which ha.
now been nnbrgken for so many yenrs:
upon the juat ar.d iuipaitiul enforcement
of the law, upon the increasing erBoieu
cy of our entuiiion school system, uud
the prvgreaa made in popular edueiilimi:
upon the miproveuient ana enter; rise
manifested hi all parts ot the Mute. W e
again challenge a comparison between
the state of thin and the outrages,
crimes and scandals which attended Re
publican ascendancy in our borders. We
pledge Mirselvcs to exert in the future
aa in the past our best efforts to pio
luotcjhc best interests of the pont ic of
all sections of the State. Affirming our
adlicrenoe to Democratic priuciles as
hertofore enunciated in the platform of
the party, it is hereby
Resolved, That no government has
the right to burdet, its people aith tuxc
bevond the amount required to par its
ueccwary expenses and gradually extin
guish its public debt; and that when
ever the. revenues, however derived, ex
ceed this amount, they should be reduc
ed, so as to avoid a surplus iu the treas
ury. That any system of taxuiiou which
necessitates the payment of a premium
of $'i"J by the government on each $1,
IX'O of its bonds, tikenup with the mil
lion" th:it wtuld otherwise lie idle in iti
vaults, and paid to boiidiii-iili-rs who
pureliased in many ..instauees,'.-. :it less
than par, is uiidetiKiciatie, opprcive
and lui'juitou utid slioul i bo refunded',
The course of our Dciuocrittc Iff -prescn-tatjves
in Cungrrss, m their eftrti to
give relief to the pet' 1c from huideu
same internal revenue and tariff taxa
tion, meets with the approval of '.the
Democratic party of fliis State iJ we
rehpeetfully recoiunitud that is they find
it luiposaible tugivo to the people all the
relief they demanded, they support any
just and practical measure presented in
Congress that will afford a practical re
lief from such existing burden.
Resolved, That while tha details of
the methods by which the constitutional
revenue tariff shall be gradual 'y reac'ie' i
aie subjects which the representatives of
our onr people at the national capital
mutt bo trusted to adjust, wc think the
custom duties should be levied for the
prodnctt"n of public revenue, and the
discriminations in their adjuMmcLt
should be such as will place the highest
rates on luxuries and the lowest on the
necessaries of life, distribute as equally
as possible the unavoidable burdens of
taxation, and oo'itcr the greatest goad
on the greatest number. -
Resolved, That wc, as heretofore, fa
vor, and will never cease lo demand, the
unconditional abolition of the whole in
ternal revenue system, as a war tux,uot
to be justified in tijiesof peace; as a
grievous burden to o ir eoplu and a
source of annoyance in its practicul op
erations. Wc cull the attention of tin:
' peoplo of the State to the liypoentica
prctun.i,is 0f tbe Republican paity in
their platforms that they aro in favor of
tho aepeai ot this onerous system taxa
tion, enacted by their party, while the
Repiblitaus in C i.gressare taxil g their
energies to obstruct all legislation in
augurated be tbe representatives of tbe
Democratic party to relieve the people
of all or a part of this odious system.
Resolved, That the course of 1 the
Damocratic party, iu furtherance ol'pop
ular education, U a sufficient guarantee
that we favor the education of the poor
pie, tud wo will promote ana improve
the present educational advantages to far
as it can be done without burdening the
people by excessive taxation.
Resolved, That to meet an existing
ovil, we will accept, for educational pur
noses, from the Federal Government or
pro rata share of the surplus in its trea
sury; f rovided, that it be disbursed
through Slate agents and the bill for
tbe dutiibution be free from objection
able features.
Resolved, That the United States be
ing one government and ours a national
party, we denounce the efforts of the
Republicans tu iorcc sectional issues in
Congress and elsewhere, and to promote
disscntion sod ill will between the pso
ple of tbo different sections of our com
mon country.
Resolved, That it is due to the peo
ple of our eastern eourtie?, who have so
cheerfully borno their tharc of onr com
mon burdens, that the present or some
ciuully effect ivo system of county gov
ernment shall be maintained.
Resolved, That the Dciuoura'i: party
is opposed to any further extension of
tbe "No-fence" law, uulcss such ei ten
sion shall have first been authorized by
majority or the qualified voters within
tbe territory to be affected thereby.
Resolved, That tbo Democratic party
baa ever beea list party of the working
man, and has never fostered monopolies,
or save "trusts" or "eoaibmations" or
"pools" ever erowu up uuder laws en
acted by it. The oontest m this coun
try being between aggtegated capital,
seeking to crush out all couiiietion, and
tbe individual laborer, the Democratio
party is, as it has ever becn.agaansl the
monopolist and in favor of a just dis ri
bntion of capital, aad demands tbe ea.
aetaaeat of lawe thai wi 1 bear equally
apoa all.
Resolved, That as all taxation bears
most heavily upon the Utwrr, it is tha
dutv fif the legislator, aa a direct benefit
tn the wotkingaian, to keep the expenses
of onr pnhiie inaiitiitione at the lowest
limit consistent with wio and efficient
n iiuacemetit. The Democratic party
opposes any competition between free
and convict ht; but it insists that
i nviets shall not remain iile at tlio ex-
i iise of honest labor.
Resolved, that ours being an agricul
tural Mate, it ig out duty as well as our
phasureto promote any and all legisla
tion that is beei calculated to advance
the interests of agriculture, and that in
so doing we will most effectually advance
the iuterest of mechanics, manufactur
ers and laborers,
Resolved, That tho Democracy of:
North Carolina, cord ally approve the
administration of Hou. Alfred M. Scales
as liouest, patriotic and conservative.
Resolved, That the ability, wisdom,
honesty, patriotism, independence, failh
fulness to duty and manly courage of
1'rcsident Cleveland have won tlie admi .
ation of all good men, and the interests
of the eountry demand his re-nomination
and re.electiou.

And then sho ran down again and danc

and thcu on both at once as she got in

plucked up all her courage and as a big
wave rolled in alio ran to meet it.
It flopped her hang up aaiust the

out as if she hud been a wooden ball.

ti p of that also and every lima she tri-
ed to get on her leet she was whisked
back.
Tb she realized that she was beauti
fully floatiug out to sea, aud she sent
up (i ncreaiu that startled the bathers
near her . One of them young and brave

shoulder, but ber feet would not down,
aiid being a wiso thoughtful lad, he tow

say thank you, und with tbe red blood on

rushed away to change bar garments.
She might have escaped with that had
she not imparted the secret of the episode
a friend.
And tliCKeeret was this: She was a

PACKING EGGS FOit SIIIP.MFNT.
Poultry keeper reiterates tbe anoai)
dvire as to shipping eggs. It is atl
proper, but we have this to say in rela
tion to tbe whole matter, in the light
modern traurpoitalion. That i, if egga
do not hatch, when earned a reasonable
distance, the fault prrbably lies in lack
of vitality in the eggs, from impaired
function, if the receiver docs his duty
iu the setting. Tbe advice, aa to ship
ping, is is follows :
Baskets are the best. Line tbe bas ket
with old paper cf any kind, then
put in tho bottom an inch of cut hay or
chaffpress down, on tbis put wheat
bran, then set the eggs on end from
one-eighth to one-fourth ef an inch
apart then put in more bran und press
carefully down, then hay again, and so
on uutil your basket is full. Two lay
en are enough. Now put on plenty of
cut h y : that is, round up the basket
well Willi it. Then put over the top
a pice of cotton cloth ; tie tho cbto
around tbe basket just under the liui
with good, strong twine ; stretch tbe
cloth doau tight and sew tbe cloth to
the string, taking ono inch stitches, and
yon have a pscktge that will go safely
any distance.
