The eastern farmer believes tbe railroads are manipulated in the interest of tbe Western farmer, while the latter U quite as sure that he is being constantly dis criminated against by the carrying trado. About the only point on which the agiiculturists of the two sections do agree is that the depres sion is general and ruinous. There is h widespread demand for a remedy, although they cannot de cide among themselves as to the exact nature of the treatment. It is this series of facts that is going to require great thought and diplo macy in the task of placating the American farmer. Washington Post. Tbis is a step backward. Wise men like Lord Bacon and Black- stone long ago said that it was njudicious to cut off the great body of the people from all hope of ob taining a freehold. But the single example of France should be enough. When the feudal system prevailed the French peasantry were ignorant and brutal, and ready at any time for a revolution. With the break ing np of the great estates the country people became imbued with new life, energy and intelli gence. Hmall farms have been the salvation of France. Her common people have risen in the social scale. They sustained the wars of the Napoleonic era, and when the ast empire fell went down into their pockets and paid off a burden of debt that would have crushed almost any other nation. In no country did the owners of large tracts of land ever contribute as much money for the public welfare as came from the savings of these small farmers of France. Atlanta Constitution. LOCAL NEWS.

'Aititoh in time saves nine," and if you take Hood's Barsaparilla.now It may aave months of future - possible "Only a Farmer." Toe above is the heading of a com mucLation in this issue of the Journal signed ' Lecturer." The farmers, while they may not be as scholarly as some few others of our citizens, are as intelligent and upright as any clas3 of men we have, rhey aie apt to be carefuHn their thoughts and views, and generally possesssed of sober judgment. Being the tillers of the soil, the occupation that first gives power in revolving the wheel of in dustry, they are often termed the back bone of the country, but what avaiieth if there are no other members to operate iu unison with the spinal colnmn? Just as important as they are to make up the complete body, just so necessary are the various branches of industry and professions. One is dependent upon the other, and cannot meet with success where all the vocations are at tempted. It is true that many of the young men of the country are seeking the cities in their pursuits through life, and in the majority of instances we believe to their detriment. The small farm carefully tilled guarantees a home and a living, both of which is not obtained by a large portion of those living in towns and cities. The majority of planters have but little cause to com plain of the hard times, and many of thorn arti men of means and promi nence. In the country there is more moderation and less extremes. The cities may have more wealth among one clri8, but there is greater poverty on the other hand. The same com piriaon is true in the educational line. North Carolina is rapidly going for ward io the education of her sons and daughters, but the facilities are yet very deficient. The Journal has always been warm supporter of the Alliance and believes there is a grand work before it n bringing the farmers together in an interchange of ideas, profiting from one another's experince, and planning for their boceflts. Ward Nominations. On last Wednesday night meetings were held by the Democrats of the first, second and third wards for the purpose of nominating candidates, for Council men, to be voted for at the municipal eleotion to be held on the 6th of May, At the meetiog in the first ward Mr R. P. Williams ; received 55 votes and Mr. John C Whitty 54 votes, and Mr Williams was deolared the Democratic nominee for Councilman. In yester day's Journal Mr. Whitty has a card in which he claims to be "the regular nominee," "having received a majority of the qualified Democratio votes of the first ward of the city of Newbern Mr. Whitty expresses his thanks for the honor bestowed, and says, "If elected I shall carefully guard their interests and do all in my power to ad vance the best interests of the oity at large. I am pledged to no man and know no slate. " Bere is an unpleasant complication. Men of character are divided in opinion as to who is the nominee of the Demooratio party for Councilman in the first ward. The Journal cannot decide between them In tho second ward Mr. Ferdinand Ulrica ana uc. ueorge mover were oandidates for the nomination, aud Dr. Slover having received a majority of tho votes cast was declared the candi date of the Democrats of that ward In the third ward Ben j. B. Lane and Ltugh J. Lovick were tbe candidates and Mr. Lovick received the nomina' tion. The nomination of Dr. Slover and Mr. Lovick is fully endorsed by the Democrats in their respective wards and thoy will no doubt receive, as they deserve, the unbroken support of their pirty. We trust that the first ward will be as fortunate in the election of Councilman as the second and third wards will be. Mr. Whitty claims that ha received a majority of tbe qualified Demooratio votes, but in a card today Mr. Williams claims that votes oast for both candi dates were challenged and that no ob jeotfon or protest was raised against the decision or tbe chairman. Where the Danger Lies. It is reported that the "six footer was in Beaufort a few nights ago and frightened some colored women. Tbe "six-footer" ie gaining wide notority If the report is true that he hat left New Berne, we should congratulate ourselves. However, the poor fellow may have left to escape the ward poli tics war wise with all of his midnight folly. Putting joking aside, though, the fact that a great many people are oarrying arms on aoeount of the sup posed danger of meeting the supposed terror, is a serious one. Then it danger of some one getting hurt not by the "six-rooter" out oy some herol.7) who would shoot the "six-footer" if he should see him. Tbe fellow who fired a ball through Mr. Robert's sitting room win- aow tne otner mgni is just tne one to kill tone ianooi kill tome innocent person. Personal. Mr. Wm.

The Annie of this ine will arrive today. The steamer Stout, of the Clyde lice arrived from Baltimore yesterday with full cargo of general freight. The steamer Manteo, of tbe O. D, ine, sailed yesterday for Norfolk, car rying a full oargo of freight, including a good shipment of green peas, and there was a large list of passengers. To the Voters of the First Ward. At tbe regular Democratic primary. held in the first ward on last Wednes day night. Mr. John C. Whitty and myself were candidates for the nomina tion for Councilman. Mr. Whitty re ceived fifty-four votes and I received nity-nve votes. Some of tbe parties woo voted lor me and some who voted for Mr. Whitty were challenged, aud their right to vote was deoided by tbe chairman. No one objected to the chairman's decision, no appeal was taken, and no protest was entered. All who were present, both mine and Mr Whitty s friends, acquiesced in the chairman's ruling, and lbs parties were allowed to vote. After the ballot was announced I was declared to be the regular Democratio nominee for Coun cilman from the first ward, and no pro test was entered or objection made by any of Mr. Wbitty's friends. This set tles tne question as to who is the regn- lar Democratio nominee according to the party machinery and organization. I understand that Mr. Whitty claims that I reoeived the votes of parties who were not qualined voters in the first ward. I desire to submit this propo sition to Mr. Whitty and bis friends: Let him furnish a list of the men who voted for bim, and a list of those who voted for me who were not entitled to rote, and I will guarantee to show to tbe satisfaction of any fair-minded men that Mr. Whitty received more votes oast by persons not qualified to vote than I did. I also understand that Mr. Whitty 's friends oharge that I attempt ed to vote one John Williams, a colored man, in the primary meeting. I am prepared to prove to any person wbo desires proof thatMr.Seth Fisher, ona of Mr. Whitty 's staunch friends, gave Williams a wnitty ticket and sent bim into the meeting to vote for Mr. Whitty. Mr. Whitty says in his card: "I am pledged to no man. and know no slate." I am perfectly willing for every man in my ward to know for whom I expect to vote, and I state now that if I am elect ed I shall at all times and under all cir- cumttanees work and vote for the elec tion of Silas Fulcher as tax colleotor. I haye supported him in tbe past and shall continue to do so in tbe future. R. P. Williams. Feb. 25th,J800. Only a Farmer. Not many days since a citizen, being asked who a certain man was, ant swered, "He's a right good fellow, bu- be is ignorant, he is only a farmer." there is a tendency jto associate agri culture and ignorance as twin brothers. Last year a prominent writer said, The wealth and intelligence of the country are gathering into the cities." 1 would simply ask this question: When the Ignorance aud poverty of the land are left to support it, what will become or our bewvaa country r It i3, alas! too trae that much igno ranee prevails among the agricultural classes of our land, but there is a school now well organized, in which all who will may get instruction as to the surest and best way to drive ignorance and poverty from the farmer's door. This school is the "Farmer's Alli ance." It is doing more now to elevate the farmer to bis proper plaoe, as a fac tor in the great progress of the age, than ail other agencies combined. Brother farmers! the only way for us to oommand the respect due our noble occupation is to attend to our own business, instead of delegating others to attend to it for us, when we can do it better ourselves. If we would accomplish more, we most think more. We have let others do our thinking for us too long. Next to the Gospel preacher, he who tills the soil should of all professions be moat intelligent, as more depends upon mm. i,k(tiukh.k April 24, 1890. The Spring Irledlclne.
