Private - Sehaols Statistics ' Ralbiob, ' December 7 The-' North Carolina Tobacco Growers' Convention was called to order by Commissioner f Agriculture Patterson. He said the cenditlen of affairs are peculiar and the problems confrontlngvthe tobacco In dustry very serious. ..The 'crop of 1890 sold forabout 80 percent less than sit ears before..' The price of tobacco In lower, while the production la smaller, and there is no decrease in the demand1' So the price does not follow! the -usual laws of supply and demand. JoolB. Philips, of Nash, waa elected chairman. James F. Jordan, who has been In the tobacco business at Greensboro for six teen ! years, bitterly denounced the American Tobaoco Company,", saying that year by year It fojeed prices : down He also denounced the Dukes, of Dnr hamr saying that they gave -to Trintty Cellege nearly $1M,000 of which the farmers had been robbed. , ' ! At the night session It was decided to hold a State convention," with Ave dele gates from each connty, at. Raleigh on the evening ef January- 17ib. It was freely said that : organization alone is naoe sary, and that then the farmers can balld factories and manufacture tobacco There1 waa some hint at a secret organi zation, but this waa ridiculed, and il was declared that the only way to fight the American Tobaoco Company, was face to face. It was further said that It was not the purpose to array labor against capital, but to unite as one man against that Company; It was set. forth In the resolutions adopted that the price of leaf tobacco ,haa been so forqed. down by the, trust ei to leave no -profit to the growers, and thai the; purpose of the State convention Is to devise a plan to raise prices. The county meetings to select delegate are to be held January 1st. l. - i It will take $7,003,000 to handle the crop, but the money can be had easily if the farmers will enter into an iron-clad contract to sell to warehouses establiahed under their management. ''r,', One plaa which metwlth favor is the establishment ef a warehouse at each market, this to be managed by two grow era and two dealers, and to make an aJ Vance of 8 cents per hundred oq tobacco, and then hold the : latter until there i a demand and. sell.. In other words, la this way the market can be con trolled J" t V ' ' Tbe meeting of the board of agricul ture was presided over by Chairman Cunningham. Resolutions ef sympathy to 7.

Suddenly Duncan sprang op and struck at' Settle. I be latter was rea ly for a scrap, lie was very cool and pulled oft his coat. . There are two stories about the csuse of the trouble; one that It was personal, the other IbaUt was the reault of a quarrel about the franchise amendment.' There Is no love lost anyway between. Battle and Duncan. There hai been no miking up and the state of war continues, II. Ii. Grant, clerk of the District Court, and Dr. G.
