ITALY'S .lR0NCLADS.
They Seem to Hsve Made kaiser wilhelm
Feel Rather Anxious About
Germany's Fleet.

LONDON, Nov. 6.-ThoSc who weigh tht
words Of the Emperor William attach no or
dinary significance to his utterances at Ham
burg. The citizeas Of HauSetown gave him
an enthusiastic reception, and We're probably
tattered by his references to their native
! burg, but it was evident that his affection foI
the inhabitants was entirely subordinated t.
his consideration of the port which shelters
the fleet which, TO use his own words he loves sc
well. Coming directly from Italy, and re
tanning in his mind the naval strength of his
ally, he would have been more than morta
had he not felt some pangs of envy wher

scanty ships and ports. His plans for the
future ho finds eircumscribed by his mari
time limits, and the result is obvious that he
will cling closer than ever to the triple al
lance.
The emperor is German, and subservi.
ent people entirely dominated by devoted
army will know nothing for a long time to
come but obedience to his slightest wishes
aud thus from one point of view his trans
Alpine tour would seem to promise the dura,
tion of the bond between the three powers.
On the other hand, there are indications
that although King Humbert and SignoI
Crispi may still remain convinced that their
interest is identical with that OF Germany
the more tickle populace under their sway
have no ardent love for the overshadowiug
head of the combination.
The Catholics detest William more thar
ever for his virtual slight to the pope, feel
ing of course shared by the strong German
Catholic element, the feeling of dislike toward
Forestiere inherent to the common Italians is
more vehement than ever since the Teutonic
uniform has been faunted in their cities, and
the demonstrations of the Socialistic element
represented by Albani were only repressed by
the severest measures. But the bitterest
enemies gained by the Kaiser were the
Italian civilians of high rank attached to the
court.
The contemptuous notice. or rather want
of notice, taken of them by the emperor and
his suite stung them to the quick, and the
Italian nature has never been noted for it,

Saturday afternoon, in which sixteen miner
were killed outright and three were 50 badly

the explosion are given. The superintendent
of the mines, George l. Miller, thinks that

lt Is also said that an Italian miner who re
ceived 100 sticks of dynamite from the store
keeper in the morning handled the stuff *
carelosSly in his work that the whole amounl
was ignited.
The explosion occurred in a pocket about
230 feet from the opening. OF the 160 meI
employed in the mine only nineteen were al
work, sixteen of them in the pocket, two
near the opening some distance Off, and ON,
still further away from the main body. The
force Of the explosion was so great that TIN
bodies of some Of the victims were hurled vi
through the air shaft and carried many
yards away from the mouth of the mine
The bodies were SO shockingly mangled thW
n some cases recognition was impossible.
A little blacksmith shop near the scene On
5he explosion was turned into a morgue

Beside him lay p. f. Donley, who also wa.
blown out OF the mouth of the mine. Donley

Terrific Tales of Ill Treatment Told by

TACOMA, w. T., Nov. 6-Sixteen sailoIr
of the ship Hecla, which has arrived here
loaded with wheat for Great Britain, have
entered suit in the district court against
Capt. Snow, of that vessel, for cruelty. They
allege that the Hecla started for Cardiff,
Wales, with crew of sixteen men. After
he had been out but a short time the captain
began feeding his men on rotten meat and
potatoes which were not fit to eat, and both
Capt. Snow and his mate shamefully abused

party to power. 1t is with deep fore
holdings that we look into the future
What ills may come to these Southern
States, so lately put in the way of
peace and prosperity, we have now
neither the time nor the heart to in
quire. Fortunately, the way of our
duty is clear and definite. 1t is to
close ranks, stand firm, and, at any
hazard and in any despite. to main
tain the integrity and the supremacy
of the Democratic party in the South
Let us do this, and the essential
&hings may be saved to US. If we
divide. we shall lose everything.
If we can be instrumental in restoring
this grand old party to the place
from which it has fallen. and in
clothing it again with the power of
which it has been so wantonly
stripped, we shall therein have worked
the sum of our earthly ambition. If

HOW 1T WAS FOUGHT.
TRoston Advertiser.

The campaign of 1888 will be re-
membered as the first that was ever
fought on scientific basis. The
tariff question is a question of politi-
cal enconomv, and political economy
is q science. And it is matter to
be very specially noted, a matter for
congratulation and philosophical re-
lection, that millions of American
people have been engaged much Of
the time during several months in
studying the laws of supply and
demand, the purchasing power of
wages. the nature of commercial
exchange. the balance of trade, the
relations of capital and labor, the
true nature of money and other ele-
ments which enter into that complex
whole which we call business.

full possession of faculties he assem-
bled all his family to his bedside and

NORTH CAROLINA FOREST
TREES.
[Plant.l

Within the last few years the hard
wood lumber of this State has come into
great demand, an enormous quantity
of walnut, cherry, maple, oak, hickory,
and other kinds of lumber has been
shipped from the State. Northern men
are coming into the State and buying up
the timber as it stands in the forests
for almost nothing and saving it up
into lumber for Northern and foreign
markets at a tremendous profit. IF
this continues much longer our hard
wood timber will be we'll nigh exhaust
ed, and the present owners Of the land
will be no better off than before they
parted with their property, while the
men to whom they have sold their val
liable woods will be rich. Our people
should refuse to sell their timbered land
at such low figures. If they will
demand higher prices they will get
them. 1t may be not right at first, but
the demand for our lumber will soon
cause the purchasers to pay full value
for the woods. We hope soon to see
a change in this matter, and that we
will no longer hear so often of sales of
valuable timbered tracts at almost
nominal figures. IF these lands are
kept out of the market for while their
price will advance to reasonable figures.
Then out people can realize some Of
the profits now being made out of them
by the men who now buy the lands for
the lumber and make such profits on it.
There is another thing the land
owners of this State should do. They
should set out more trees. 1t could
be done at very little expense, and in
the course of time would be source
Of wealth to the State. A few oak,
hickory and other such trees set out,
or few walnuts and acorns put into
the ground each year by every land
owner In this State, would cost really
nothing and in the course of a few years
would bring the owners of the land an
increase that, were the amount suggested
now, would not be believed by any one.
It would be we'll for us to adopt the
plan pursued by some of the Western
States. They have what is known as
arbor day, which is one day each fall
set apart far setting out trees. The
day is observed as State holiday and
is devoted to transplanting valuable
trees. In this way some sections of
these States have become we'll wooded,
which, a few years ago, were perfectly
barren of trees. Were this plan adopted
In our State it would be impossible ever
to exhaust our hard wood timber.
