Fertilizer Announcement for
the Fall of 1888.

1t has been our custom for years to call all
farmers attention to our various brands of
Fertilizers for fall crops. But the first thing
we want to do is to congratulate our farmers,
and with them all citizens, on the excellen
crop of wheat and rye just harvested in our
county 1t is also source of great pleasure
for us to know that the various brands of
Fertilizer sold by us last fall in competition
with so many others has in every case equaled
our competitors, and in very many cases far
excelled them, both in the yield of wheat and
rye and in its maturing.
One of our customers, to whom we sold four
tons last fall, can't praise it enough. He has
Just left his order for nine tons for this fall.
Another party, who used but half ton of our
Fertilizer last fall, and several tons of other
goods, intends to increase his acreage in wheat
this fall, and will use all of our goods.
Another farmer, whom we induced to try
some of our Cheap Fertilizer-our 500 goods
used it by the side of fertilizer he bought
of an agent, and for which he paid forty per
cent. more for than he paid us. Ours gave
him equally as good results.
The reports we have from the clover where
our Fertilizer was used is satisfactory.
We have many other reasons and ACTS why
we think it would pay the farmers to get their
Fertilizer from US this fall, aud will present
them in later advertisements, and request
everybody to look out for them and read them.
Very respectfully,
NJ. GoRsUCH & SON,

Il the Problem solved?

Who knows but what North Caro-
lima may come to the front and
solve the problem Of an effectiyeop-
position to the cotton bagging trust.
Such a thing may be possible.

the jute article has been made By a
Wilmington firm from pine straw.

The Radical Party and the Inter
nal Revenue system.

What record has the Radical party
made in the matter of internal re-
venue taxation? A short horse is
soon eurried, and the story is quickly
told. The Radical partyput the tax
on the people, and has kept it there
persistontly refusing to repeal it Oh
even to modify it essentially.
Six years ago the Radical party in
this State, in State Convention a.
sembled, was, as usual, in favor OF
the continuance of the system, and
advocated expanding the money de-
rived thereform lin educating the
children of our common country"
Four years ago, having in the pre-
ceding two years become suddenly
and violently virtuous, it solemnly
resolved, in State Convention as
sembled, that all internal taxes im-
posed by the national government
should be abolished"
1t was not until 1884, then, that
the Radical party in North Carolina
found out it was opposed to the in
terrlal revenue system, but that was
a long way ahead of the national
party, for as late as its recent Con-
vention held at Chicago, 2lst June,
1883, the national party went no
further than to resolve that it would
favor the entire repeal of internal
taxes rather than the surrender Of
any part of our protective system, in
case there shall'still remain lager
revenue than is requisite for the
wants Of the government. As to
what are the wants of the govern
ment. in their opinion. they left US
in no kind of doubt, for they went
on boldly to say:
We demand appropriations for
the early rebuilding of our navy;for
the construction of coast fortifica-
tons and other approved modern
means Of defense for the protec-
ton of our defenceleSs harbors and
cities; for the payment of just PEN
sions to our soldiers; for necessary
works Of national Importance in tie
improvement of the harbors and
channels Of internal or coastwise
and foreign commerce; for the en-
eouragement of the shipping inter-
est Of the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific
States, as well as for the paymentof
the maturing public debt"
Does any one suppose that there
viii be a dollar Of surplus in the
treasury when all these things shall
have been done? and yet only when
they shall have been done will the
National Radical party consent to
the repeal Of the internal revenue
system-that is to say, not until 1.-THE
day after judgment" Before all
these things or the half Of
them shall have been done the very
memory even Of a surplus" will
have been lost.
Compare this record with that Of
the Democratic party and see WHERE
the most hope lies for the entire re.
peal Of the infamous system. The
thing is 50 plain that he WHO run;

A Trust on Frult.

Day by day we witness the grasp
ing effects of combinations known
as "Trusts." The latest is the COM
bine of the tropical fruit men, and
consumers will be unable to gets a
single banana or plantain, save
through the courtesy ola trust which
was organized this week. A few
days ago a circular was sent to all
fruit men in the country calling
them to a secret conference in New
Orleans. It was signed by six of
the largest fruit houses in that city.
There was a trust formed, represent
ing combined capital Of $780,
900. 1t will purchase the entire Of
ferings Of tropical steamers. Six
million dollars have been advanced
by London capitalists to build rail-
road in Honduras and elsewhere, so
as to concentrate the fruit market at
certain selected shipping points.
These trusts are drawinginto their
nets all manner of commodities and
extorting from the people higher
prices on every thing that get with
in their clutches. It is nothing less
than robbery.
We already have
A sugar trust,
A lumber trust,
A salt trust,
A iute trust,
A cordage trust,
A rubber trust,
An envelope trust,
A steel trust,
A type trust, .-
A cotton seed oil trust,
And a free trade cheap labor trust,
with highly protected. manufactur.
ers as its liberal patrons, and it j:
made possible only because Mr.
Blaine and other high war tariff ad.
vocates tax home labor for the neces.
saries of life and ALLOW free trade in
cheap labor TO do their work.
These are only a few of the trusts
and combinations Of monopolie:
which Cypress the whole people.
These would vanish il our tarifflaws
were honestly protecting the legiti.
mate labor of the country instead Of
protecting monopoly.
VIII the people longer stand such
injustiee-such a system fostered By
the Republican party? We hardly
think so. Fellow-citizens, the time
has arrived for serious considera.

campaign before you cast your bal.

fairness and economy. Then you

The UnIyersitv .Frats :,

lola Register: We observe that a
number of state papers, the Topeka
Commonwealth, Newton Republican
and others, are making war on the
Greek letter fraternities of the State
university, charging them with the
destruction of the purely literary So
cieties. with depriving non-fraternity
students of social and literary advan-
tageS. with imposing heavy tax on
those who do join them, with lessening
the interests in studies and otherwise
haInpering the usefulness of the uni
YersIty. The charges are taken from a
letter published in the Lawrence
Tribune. by non-fraternity student,
and will prove. on investigation. we
stated stated at S any considerably rate It ovfs
certain that from 1877 to 1881,
when the writer of this was somewhat
acquainted with the said secret soci-
cites such charges could not have been
made with any shadow of truth. The
best men in the university belong to
the "E'rats;' their members were the
most active in the purely literary So
cietles, the tax" was an insignificant
trifie of four or five dollars year, and
so far from lesSening the interest in
studies, they quicken it, taking special
pride in keeping their men as near to
the head of their classes as possible.
Touching the matter of social and lit
erary advantages, the university is
democratic. Nowhere do mere adyen-
tons or artificial props, in the way of
wealth or family, count for so little. If
social distinction is achieved it is be-
cause it is earned, and if honors are be-
slowed they go to him who has fairly
won them whether he be Frat or

Tea hing Temperance.

AT the International Sunday School
Convention, held in Chicago last June,
the following resolution was received
and adopted with great enthusiasm
and applause by that immense body. 1t
strikes sympathetic chord in the
heart of every true Sunday school
teacher. For, if we do not teach tenn
perance in the Sunday school when the
Bible is full of it, where shall we teach
the children? Here it is:
Resolved, That with emphasis we
give expression to conviction which
| deepens with the passing years, that
every Sabbath school should be in fact
and effect, temperance training
| school, fitting the rising generation foI
| active and aggressive effort in this and
every other department of Christian
work. We trust the time may speedily
come when every teacher and scholai
in our Sunday schools shall, by exam
pie and precept, practice and promote
temperance: when none shall follow
the bad precedent OF him who asked
sam my brothers keeper?o
Il This was added: We highly approvt
of the utterance of the committees re
port, as it relates to temperance, ant
desire to record it as our convictiol
that that Sunday school which does no
J stand as q rock against the abomina
; tions OF the liquor traffic. and train u
a generation pledged to total absti
, nence, is missing one Of its creates
! ODDOrtUuitfeS for usefulness.

Indian Claims Unpaid.

AToKA, 1. T., Jan. 2S.-The Choc-
taws are greatly exercised over their
net proceeds claim against the United
States government for property which
had to be abandoned in Mississippi and
Alabama when they were removed
west. This property consisted of i'm
provements, houses, fences, etc., on the
lands sold to the government. and for
which the government agreed in the
treaty they should be paid. 1t has
never been paid and now amounts to
the round sum of $3,60O,0 900. 1t has
been allowed by congress two or three
times, and also by the United States
court of claims. About half of il is
pledged to lawyers and middle men.
The last Choctaw council passed some
kind of legislation obnoxious to these
attorneys and they are now obstruct-
ing any measure in congress appropri-
ating money for these claims. A called
session of the council was held in No
vember to compromise the affair with
the attorneys, but failed to effect any
thing. The net proceeds money will
hardly reach the Indians this year.
There is talk of another called session
of the council to adjust this matter.
