Thnt la the Way Farmers May Dowa the Tie Trust Commissioner S. L. Patterson, al ways on the lookout for anything that will benelit tho farmers, has been looking around for some way to thwurt the plans of the trust that has jnudo a corner on the familiar "band and colliir" ties that havo for years been used for binding cotton bales, and have raised tho price. Tho bent way, Commissioner Patter son thinks, is to refuse to buy the ties made by the monopolists. The best tie yet found to take the place of the trust tie is made of wire, and it is quite as Rood us tho hoop tie: Trust ties cost 3.21 a hundred pounds, while the wire tires cost only $2.40 a hundred pounds. Tho Roulh Carolina Farmers' Alli snee 1ms made arrangements with the Washburn & Moen Manufacturing Co., '241 Pearl street, New York, to manu facture ties for them. They make a No. C tio that weighs 37J pounds to the bundle, at 90 cente a bundle, de livered. Mr. Patterson says it is too late to make an organized fight on the tie trust now, as so large a part of the cot ton crop is marketed, but that farmers can Joave the trust out in the cold by letting them keep their hoop ties.

Senator Tillman, of "pitchfork" fame, spoke at the opera house in Goldsboro last Thursday night to a packed audience, many ;ladies being present. His speech lasted for fifty liiiuiites, on pure Democracy without the combination' attachment. His abuse of Cleveland, Hill aud the Eastern De mceracy was terrific, aud while it plt'used a few, the majority did not seem to relish it. He seemed to think the present political state, af affairs in North Carolina "a genuine curiosity," but gave counsel how to combat it, not 'by abuse but to thinkkindly and reason with those who had strayed off from the Democrutio fold into Oje Populist camp, thereby helping to elect Bryan with 16 to 1 or bust. He also address ed an audience at Junston. which was t estimated at 10,000. Kicking Against Fusion. The lialuigh correspondent of Rich mond, (Va.) Timen, says; "In spite of the positive assertion of certain pa pers that the varignted electorial ticket that is to bo doused to Democrats, Populists aud the Silver party as ode, is heartily endorsed, such is not the case. The 'kick' has already began, and will continue, aud the promoters and backers of this movement are not going to lie on 'lluwery beds of case.'

The shaft and engine house of the Ooron ado mine was attacked by striking minora and tbe buildings flrod and burned to the ground. An assault was made on the Em mett mine, but tbe strikers wero driven olT before doing any damage. The mines wliieh were barricaded aud guardod, were attacked by men armed with 'Winchesters aud dyna mite was need. When tbe flames broke out In tho Corona do building the firemen hurried to the scene, but were stopped by armed strikers, ami not allowed to work on thollro. Fireman O'Kwfu was shot while turning on the water. By this time a large crowd bud gathered: luu dreds ready to assist wero held at bay by the rioters, who were concealed near tho build ing. But presently, as sheets of flame rolled over tbe nullalngs, it wag apparent thai un less there was timely action the bullillucs In the vicinity would be destroyed. A body citizens, armed with rifles, gunrded the liro mei as they proceeded to work. At 8:30 a. nu, the attack was made on the Emmett.

North Carolina's Weekly Climate and Crop Service Report. Below is Director H. B. Battle's Brop and weather report, as gathered from one or more correspondents throughout tbe State: The weather during the week was favorable for the work of gathering crops, but was not such as to cause any Improvement in the outlook. Tbe temperature rose steadily during the week, and the last days were almost as warm as any experienced this summer, with maximum temperatures as high as 100 degrees. The weather turned decidedly cooler on Sunday. Homo good looal rains occurred on the 13th, 16th and 16th, which were heaviest in the eastern portion of the State. The largest amounts were 8.65 inches at Warranton and 2.95 at Wcldon. Over large portions of the State the drought (till prevails; many wells and creeks ire dry, and at some places there somo difflonlty in obtaining water. Tbe weather was perfect for picking cotton; the crop is opening very fast, and is probably nearly all open; pick ing is proceeding rapidly. Never be fore has the crop been gathered so early. The hot weather this week caused some more premature opening, and the final yield will be as low as previously estimated. Corn is dry and now being gathered. An early frost would probably injure a little tobacco still left in tbe Colds, ' Potatoes and pea-nuts are being dag. Both crops are not as good as promised a month ago. Potatoes are fair; pea-nuts on stiff lands nearly a failure. Turnips very poor stand generally, bnt beet in northern portion of eastern district.

At New Haven live hundred students, as sisted by a band of the First llegiment of the National Guaids of Conneetioi t, bjoke up the address of William J. BryiiU. A platform bad beeu erected on the his torical "New Haven Greon" and about that platform for more than an hour before tho nominee urrived from 10,000 to 15,000 peo ple had surged to and fro. To the right of the stand the students hail congregated, awaiting the arrival of Mr. Bryan. At 2:15 Mr. Bryan was driven In a carriage through the crowd to the platform. Immediately all was confusion iu front. The students broko forth in their college cheer of the ''Frog Chorus" from Ari-dophnues, following with three long Ynlo nine "rahs" for "Yule and McKinlcv." Tho crowd surged to and fro lu front of 'the stand and u dozen policemen fought !- from the platform. There were cheers for the lomlnee, btit from the right of tlie stand tbe students re ptatodly broke forth with their yell and for twenty-live minutes it was impossible forMr. Bryan to make himself heard. Joseph Bargeut. tho Democratic nomlneo for Governor, wlio ,was to Introduce Mr. Bryan, tried to quiet the yelling mob iu front, but bo could not he beard ton feet away.

The police used their clubs, and one of their member, mount ed on a spirited horse, forced the nniinal in front of the stand, nearly creating a panic. Then again Mr. ilryaii tried to speak, but be was interrupted by the yells of the students. This lasted altogether for twenty-live minutes, and when ut last the nyiso had sub sided siillleienlly for hhu to make himself hoard by those immediately in front, Mr. Bryan started to speak.

Your college has helped to add fame to your city, aud those who assemble here are sup posed to come iu order thut they muy better equip themse.ves for tbe duties of life. I am glad to talk to you students because, my trlends, wo have a cause which appeals to students. If tlie syndicates nud corporations rule the country, then no young man has a fair show unless he is the favorite of a cor poration." Mr. Brynu then procoeded to speak of the right of tho people to govern themselves, but was frequently interrupted by yells from the students, followed by counter upplause from tho en wd. At Wallingford, tbe next stop, there was a fuir-i ix.ed crowd waiting to hear the nomi nee, who made u brief speech. There was a largo crowd ut M' riden when tho train pulled into that station.
