THE CHAMPION PLANTER


Mr.. J. Al. Gwaltney, of this county
living near Alexanders, yesterday
surpassed all previous prices of the
season, having obtained for a por>
ton of his tobacco at the rate of $81
per hundred. The highest price
heretofore of the season was $64.
Mr.. Gwaltney sold at the Farmers,
and also at the Banner yesterday
upwards of 1000 pounds his aver
ages being high for the whole.
Mr.. G. tell us that the fly has moi
troubled his young plants very
much, but that the cut worm has
been unusually destructive, though
he thinks he will be able to secure a
stand. In some instances in his
neighborhood replanting has been
necessary five successive times.
He says the wheat crop is the best
he ever saw in Buncombe. He has
40 acres which promises to average
nearly 80 bushels to the acre. Har-
yesting will begin next week.

who left Asheville sixlyears agoto

pleased to see him back at bis old

Our Republican contemporaries may
charge "OId sparks," as they delight to call
him, with idiocy, c~ranAiness, incompe-

he is q dishonest man. There is not .
charge laid at his door which smacks OF
dishonesty. He is not working" his office
as did Delano and others of the sweet.
scented Republican gang that preceded him,
for the purpose OF feathering bis nest. His
hands are clean of the jobbery that char.
acterized the administration OF the affairs
of the Interior Department during Repub.
lican rule. Instead of the long line OF
swindlers and thieves who were bred and
fostered in that department Of the Gov.
eminent under Republican administrations,
We find pure-handed men. They may oc'
casionally make a mistake but it is done
without the intention OF defrauding or
~wronging anyone. There il a purer atmos.
phere around the Interior Department

Heaven passes over it, it is not compelled
to hold its nose to prevent the inhalation
OF the stencil arising from the fostering and
corrupt rings that fed and fattened upon
that Department OF the Government.

ity compared with the apologies for men
who disgraced the Interior Department

HIGH PRICED AFFECTIONS.

Mr.. De Bensaude, the husband Of Viol,t
Cameron, has sued Lord Lonsdale Tor
alternating his-Bensaude-wife's affections.
The irats little husband values that indies
pensible article to conjugal felicity at the
modest sum of 500, 600. 1t seems the
market value of the commodity has greatly
appreciated within the last few years.. A
decade or two ago the price of ruptured
heart strings ranged all the way from $500
to s. 5000, the latter sum being the amount
usually demanded for the bursting of first
class areicles. This marvellous apprecia-
ton is doubtless due to a shortage in the
market--the supply not equalling the de-
mand.
And then there il another eason why
De Bensaude should ask such a stalwart
price for the love OF his wife. Miss Cameron
Is an actress, and q rather pretty one too,
and pretty actresses come high. De Ben
saude knowing this and knowing she could
draw well and thus keep the family x
chequer of De Bensaude Il Co.-the com
pany being the fascinating Violet-pIaced
her under the care OF Lord Lonsdale, a
theatrical manager of some repute. Ions
1t is not necessary for the purposes Of
this campaign to establish the fact that
"Old Sparks is not a "crank." He may
be one of the first water, but we submit the
question to the voters OF Montana if the
presence of the Republican timber laws in
his Office and the sticking out OF Carl
| Schurz's timber rules and regulations in
every pigeon hole in his secretary is not
enough to make a saint cranky, if not
crazy.

Frank Hurd has his old competitor to
run against in the Toledo (Ohio) Congress
sional district. Hurd was nominated sew
eral days ago; Romiess was nominated by
the Republicans day before yesterday. Mr..
Hurd is in point of ability one of the fore
most men OF his day. While some of his
views may appear extreme, yet he main
tains them with such rare power that he
evokes the admiration of even those who
are most Numerically opposed to him.
The Fiftieth Congress promises to be one
of the strongest mentally that we have had

the Fiftieth Congress will have an oppor.

have been ruthlessly violated in the last
decade.
