BILL ARP'S LETTER.
THE MAJOR REMARK ON THE
"HOTNKSS" OF THK WEATHER.
Retrospection, Politically and Other
' wise, of Old Times.
Confidence is a plant of alow growth
In an age?i bosom. The repnblioana
are makin Virion ado abont aomethiog
that Mr. J Jin said abont the snpreme
court, and even some of the Georgia
lxrr critiobed him severely and de
fo' Jtd the eonrt aa the best bulwark
ri our liberties, and apoke of it aa the
fcigh tribunal that atood like a wall to
iprotect people against the assaults of
passion aid prejudice. All that ia
very pretty to a young man, but old
men have more memory and lees confi
dence. Tlier was a time, a good long
time, when the court had the respect
and tho reverence of the nation, es
pecially of the south, when Jobn Mar
shal) and Roger B. Taney, two south
eraecu, were the chief justicee for a
ietiod of nearly sixty years, bnt soon
rter Taney died partisan politica and
mectional prejudice orept into tha court
and it ia there yet. It haa been only
twenty years since members of that
court ruled Mr, Tilden out of the
presidency and seated Hayes, aa clear
- feai act of lvgal fraud as was ever per
)etratcd by the most unscrupulous
politicians. Law is said to be the
perfection of human reason. Then
how ia it that in such great qnestions
republican judges deoide one way and
(he democrats the other? It ia right
rielancholy to recall that atupendons
farce seven democrats and eight re
publicans all under oath to do justice
in this great question, and yet they
drew the party lines to a man. That
Tilden was ejected all parties now ad
mit and history has so recorded. He
was cheated out of the high office by
I tree members of that supreme court.
Thia ia the same court that decided the
income tax unconstitutional. . Why I
vuauldu't truut such a court with any
pse that involved great corporations
r sectional questions. Ever since Joe
Bradley was a young inau, and np to
1870 he was president or director of
two railroads and several great in
Miraoce companies. He couldent tote
tair with them on one side and the
people on the other to savo hia life.
'No, I am like Mr. Bryan. I've lost
ooafldence in the integrity of that
coort. I will not say that its members
. ca be bought with money, but their
wills are molded by uuduo influence
nnd onght to be broken. That income
tax was a fair and just measure and
would have put into the treasury near
forty millious of dollars aud no "doubt
eaved the government from the dis
grace of that bond business.
But I didn't start to write on poli
ties. The weather ia too hot to thick
about anything that excites indigna
tion. We old chapa here in Carters
ville have been going to school every
night for a week, preparing for tho
deestrict skule chow that waa to come
off. The ladies got it up and then
levied on as and pnt the oldest men
and women in an infant class, and we
bad to toe a chalk mark and learn onr
a b c on a blackboard, and be tangbt
to sing "I want to be an angel" and
we had to speak a speech like we used
to speak it away back in tho SO's aud
40's, Some of us bad to walk up and
be licked for our mischief, and we had
a recede and played many, many stars
with the girls and I got kissed several
times and no forth. The nita were
hot, but we bad fun, lots of fin--old
fashioned, innocent fun. Old peoplonro
never so happy aa when recalling the
memories of the old school days. Thf.t
ia about as far back aa we can go, and
it ia a big landmark in life'a history.
Shakespeare telle of the whining
aoboolboy creeping unwillingly into
school. That was a trne picture some
times, but as a general thing, we were
glad to g3. Cbarlea Lamb writes of
hia joyful school daya. It waa a most
delightful mixture. With a mother to
help ns get our leasona and a father to
encourage and a teacher to praise ua
when we did well, the daily task was
not hard, and then the surroundings,
the frolics, the reoeas, the din
ner bucket, the good time going
home in tbe evening, the pretty
branchea we bad to crone, the red Ral
lies where we got chalk, the walnnt
treea over in tbe field and the chestnut
treea on the hill and then there were
persimmona and blackhawa and may
pops cot far away. We had townball
at noon, glorious old townball that haa
been debased and degraded into base
ball. We need to give good balls to
the baiter and wanted him to hit it and
knock it a mile if he conld. Then there
was our old-fashioned shinny that waa
akin to the modern golf. It waa a hard
game and kept na with bruised ahina
and bloody toes, and gradually fell in
to a state of iuocuona desuetude.
And there were some pretty girls to
look on and admire, and we had onr
sweetheart and loved to stand by
them at the -Friday evening spelling,
and aometimea ventured to bold their
handa on the aly, and would purposely
misspell the word to let them .get
above. This waa chivalry, pare and
simple. Then came Saturday, a long,
long, happy day, when we gathered
chinquapins and cheatnnt or went to
the mill and went in washing while
waiting for the grist. Sometimes w a
didn't wait for tbe grist, but ran pony
races home and went back in tbe after
noon for another frolic
It ia still memory's delight to recall
those delightful days, and ii ia no won
der that the poeta have written abont
them ; and one of them aajs:
"How dear to my heart ara tba bacms ef Bay
childhood."
The next era that etanda ont moat
prominent is that of the lover, Shake
speare knew all abont that, too, and drew
the pioture, no doubt, from hia own ex
perience, when he waa dying for pretty
Ann Hathaway. Every man and Wo
man could write a story of love's young
dream if tbey wottld, and some of tbem
would be sad, very sad. I wish that
every lad and lassie bad a lover not
I transient one, who, like the butterfly,
sips the honey - from one flower and
then seeks another but a true, fond
lover who oboosea a willing mate and
ttioks. Tbe true, oonflding love of a
young couple who ara mated, aa well
aa married, ia tbe most beautiful thing
in life. Bill Af, in Atlanta Consti

WKATKER-CROP BULLETIN
Of tbe North CaroMna Ollmate and
Crop Service. '
Below ia Section Direotor H. B.
Battle's weekly olimate and crop ser
vice report for the past week, as re
ported by one or more correspondents:
Eastebs District. The past week
has been extremely hot and dry; bene
ficial showers ooourred at a few points.
In the north portion of the district
orops are generally reported aa im
proved; elsewhere all crops are suffer
ing for want of rain. Cotton may still
be considered fine; it ia now open
ing and picking ia not far
off. There were more reports
of shedding bolls and leaves
than last week, caused by heat and
drought; the crop ia now maturing
very rapidly. Old corn was ripe be
fore the drought set in, but late corn
is needing rain badly and has fired
considerably. Fodder ia now being
pulled and stacked. Tobaoco is being
cured rapidly; much of it becoming
parched. Farmers are planting turnip
seed now. Peanuts, sweet potatoes,
peas and rice promise abundant yields. .
Central District Extreme heat
and great dryness prevailed this week,
with decidedly unfavorable influence
on all orops. Good rains ooourred in
portions of Alamance, Randolph, Rich
mond and Rockingham on Thursday, '
and a damaging local wiud-btorm in
Chatham and Orange; elsewhere rain
is badly required. A great decline in
the condition of cotton is taking plaoe;
some rust and muoh shedding of bolls
and leaves reported; plants look wilted;
opening fast in south. Corn crop good;
much fodder pulled. Late oorn needs
rain badly, and is firing. Tobacco alao
firing, and curing is forced in some
sections nearly a month earlier than
nsual. Sowing turnip seed interrupted.
Some cabbage bursting open. Sweet
potatoes ana peas not injured.
estbkh District. The effect of
the hot, dry weather haa not been so
injurious to crops in this district, and
in the west haa been quite favorable,
but a good season is needed. Cotton
on sandy land haa been injured, but
generally it is doing well and blooming
freely; much less shedding ia reported
than from other districts. Early and
late oorn needa rain; there ia some fir
ing; fodder-pulling will begin next
week. Curing tobaoco haa only begun
in a few seotions yet; the drought pre
vents spreading, and some damage by
flea-bugs ia still reported. Sweet po
tatoes and peaa doing well. Turnip
aeed being planted and land prepared
for wheat In extreme west saving
oats and hay still progressing.
nESBITT GIVES ADVICE.
Tells Farmers of the South How to Foil
Plana of the Cotton Tie Trust.
Southern farmers may Inaugurate an effec
tive fight on the ootton tie trust Tha farm
era are In arms as a result of the lnorease In
the price of cotton ties, which amounts to 100
per cent In the aggregate, this added price
will take thousands of dollars out of the
pockets of the ootton raisers. The farmers
are looking tor effeotlve measures to prevent
being squeezed by tha trust that has been
formed. The following address, issued by
Commissioner of Agriculture R. T. Nesbitt,
suggests a remedy.
Te Farmers of Georgia and of tho South :
A few yean ago we were confronted by a
ggantlc monopoly, the bogging trust, which
eadaavored to force from farmers thousands
of dollars, which In their depressed nondltloa
they ooulJ ill milord to lose. By united effort
anions; farmers this evil was averted and tbe
huge octopus which had fastened Itself on
the agricultural Industry was dwtroyed. To
day wa are confronted by a similar trouble.
Tbe manufacturers of eotton ties hare form
ad another grand combination and without
any reason, except to gratify an unlawful
(reed, hare entered Into an agreement to ad
vance the price of their goods 100 per cent
If the price of Iron hsd advanced there
might be some reason for this action, but
Iron was never cheaper, and the same must
be said of coal and labor.
The fact Is simply that an effort Is being
made to force the farmers of the South to
contribute millions of dollars to swell the
roflU of a powerful combination of manu
icturera. f be farmers are In good condition Just now
to fight this trust. They havo their provis
ions, there are few debts to be met until later;
therefore, no pressing necessity to force their
ootton on tha market. I would advise that
tbey hold meetings in every section of the
South and denounoe this effort to drfraud
them of their earnings At the same time,
let them advise togotber as to the best meth
od of meeting tbls new enemy. In tbe mean
time, tbe department which I represent will
make every effort to lovnatlgate such substi
tutes for eotton ties as will meet the requir
aaeatstf durability rnd safety.
Money for Cuba.
The Cuban junta in the United States has
raised a fund amounting to f373.00a Part
of the money bas been changed Into gold

the Cuban cause. The contribution were aa

REV. TALMAGE
ON SILYER
'IB SEES RENEWED PKOSPKRITY
IN ITS VICTORY.
He Gives Bla Views Freely, But is Not
Partisan. Says tbe South Is Al
most to a Man In Favor of the
While MetaL
'If the silver people win, i believe there
will be such a revival in business, such I
booming in Industries, which are now lnao 1
tive, and such a general shaking up of oom J
tnorolnl Interests that the oountry will be
sure to prosper."
These words were spoken by the Bev. Dr.
T. DeWittTalmage, at Easthampton, L. t,
after a long tour of tbe Southern States.
The reverend gentleman is a keen observer
ind ej see which way the wind blows as
luiukly and with as much certainty as tbe
ihrewdest of politicians. He does not only
preach to tbe people, but be mingles with
Tbem, feeling tbe popular pulse and search
ing tbe hearts of bis countrymen.
Dr. Talmage arrived at Easthampton On
Friday last from Chautauqua, where he had
attended an educational convention. Not
only in the big cities did tbe Doctor mingle
with the residents, but In remote and sparse
ly populated districts and in minor townships
and villages.
"During my entire trip," he said, "I did
not find more than one or two men whowere
not sllverltee. The unanimity waa astound
ing. Tbe sentiment down South Is univer
sally for the white metal. Bryan and Bewail
will get a very large vote from that section
of the oountry."
Dr. Talmage is too little or too muoh of a
politician to come out Hat-footed for free sil
ver, but his utterances are perhaps suffi
ciently significant to show the tendencies of
bis personal feelings.
"My associations and training and my
political affiliations of the past plaoe me on
the side of a single standard," he cautiously
aald and then as a twinkle came Into his eye
be added: "But I certainly believe that in
stead of dluaeter and ruin following in the
wake of the silver movement, the opposite
will be the result.
"I am not advocating that side of the polit
ical question," snid the diplomatic divine,
"but I do not believe, with a good many of
my Christian friends, that In the success of
chat movement the country will greatly sut
Jer. "This Is a strong nation," ho added. "We
ire engaged In a great political oampatgn,
ind it wlii ill benefit me to be a strong par
jtsan on either side. There are honest, Chris
tian, patriotic men on both sides, and the life
of tha country and welfare of its interests
Will be a great incentive to lead men in the
right direction. I have great faith in the
people of this oountry, and it is a fact that
the people of a vast Southern and Western
tract are vehemently in farvor of silver."
STARVATION FEARED.
Thousands of Miners Idle and Their
Families Are Destitute.
A desperate state of affairs exists on the
Oogebio Range, In Northern Michigan.
Where 8,000 iron miners were onoe employed
at an average of 1.75 a day, now only 1,000
have employment at $1 a day, and the unem
ployed find themselves on the verge of star
vation. AH tha mines except two have shut
down, and some of tbem have withdrawn
their pumps.
Merchants have refused credit to the un
employed, and before winter thousands
will Jack food to keep from starving.
Few of tbe residents along the Qogeblo
llange - have recovered from the panlo of
lH'.u, and most of them are still in debt
i'hoae who are still employed have their
salaries drawn by the merchants with whom
they deal, who. after deducting a share of tbe
debt, turn the balance over. Under this sys
tem the people are almost penniless most of
the time. To the idle ones the merchants
bave refused credit, because tbey see no
prospect of their securing employment
Many of the mining companies have al
lowed the idle to plant potatoes on the spare
lands, but tbe army worm now swarms in
that part of tbe State and is destroying tba
crops.
No relief can be expected from Oogebio
(Xmnty, because the treasury Is depleted. All
tbe taxpayers have organised and have re
fused to pay taxes, and consequently the Poor
Commissioners are without funds. Unless
outside assistance comes there will be starv
ing families on the range.
Civil Servioe Regulations.
Heretofore persons carried on the pay
rolls of tbe treasury as laborers have done

Fertilizer Works Destroyed.
At Philadelphia, Pa., Tuesday, the mala
building of the extensive phosphate and fer
tilizer works of the Baugh A Sons Company
was destroyed by Are. A large quantity of
costly grinding machinery and considerable
stock in the various proceases of manufacture
jonfloed tbe flames to one building. Superin
tendent Wells estimated the company's loss
200,000, a-hich is partly covered by in
surance. A hug vat of grease boiling over
into a fire started the flumes.
England Takes Water.
Newspapers at Lisbon declare that Oreal
Britain has recognized Brazil as the owner of
