We Want United Action.
TKinston Free PreSS.1

We urge upon Democrats the neces-
sity of attending the primaries and
sending good delegates to the county
convention. Select good, honest and
sensible men, who will not go SO much
for the nomination of personal friends
as for the best and most available men
as candidates. 1t is imperatively
necessary that we put out our strongest
men as candidates this year for all the
county Offices.
This applies also to the State ticket
We hope the Democrats all over the
State will not consider the promotion
of the interests of their personal friends
as much as they do the general good
of the party, and that their only
object will be to discover who is the
strongest man-who will poll the
largest vote-and when they decide
who that man is, nominate him. We
must, to insure success, nominate our
strongest men for candidates all along
the line-from constables up to gov
ernor. We need harmony and united
action both in the nomination of can
didates and in electing them after
their nomination. The Republican:
are uniting all their factions and vii
be very certain to present solid
front, and to beat them we must have
no discord or fighting among ourselves

They Must be Fed.

The DaEbury Reporter and Pest
hits the farmers pretty good lick in
the way of showing their dependence
upon Others for the very articles that
they themselves should raise, when it
says:
Those who have vacant lot or a
little patch as big as pig pen in the
cities ant- towns ofthe tobacco section,
should plant it in something to eat or
! feed our cows and mules and, il you
have more than is required for home
consumption, We farmers will buy the
surplus when we come to town to sell
our tobacco, provided we get anything
for it, or have anything with which to
pay Remember, we farmers will be
SO busy with our tobacco crops that We
will not have much time to make any
thing to eat, and next spring will be
compelled to have both bread AMI
meat. We have pretty fair crop oi
wheat, which looks we'll; but il We can
lose the time out of our tobacco to save
it VIC will have it used up by the first
of March. Plant your little patches
! in corn or potatoes or anything that
may be eaten. You must not let us
suffer for something to sustain life; we
will haul it home though you charge
us dollar a bushel for corn, which
will cost from IS to 50 cents to handle
We must eat, and if we have not the
money will give you mortgage. We
will be SO busy with tobacco that we
will not have time to make corn fol
our pigs, and if it should not be
good mast year we expect half Of them
will die. By the by, what are cabbage
potatoes and onions worth in town
Most of US have an appetite for them
at this season, for you know a fellow
is weak anyway in the Spring.

hibitionists of North Carolina or rather
those who believe in throwing their
votes to the winds when they know

they can reach that number this year

Easter Morning.
ISioux City Journal


This is Easter, and Sunday, and the
vcnturesome' birds sing the early songs
Of spring. The sun Is loosenlnG the
fetters of the frost, and the bare
branches Of the trees stretch their hope
full arms for the warmth that shall
clothe them with green. 1t is the day
Of resurrection, and hope is bright.
HOPE is the champion of life. Hope
is the mother of faith. Together they
are the guardian angels of the world.
They are omniscient, and their kindly
offices extend through all the pulses
Of life. The ROBIN comes back
and sings to the sun; and the great
sun rises IN the heavens to that song
and quickens the living and the dead
the earth grows warm in sympathy,
and the tender blades of grass peep
out to see the light, the million buds
swell and burst and give forth the in
cense of the spring, the flowers bloom,
the lowing herds so forth to pasture,
the ploughman turns the furrows of the
mellow earth, the house dog sleeps be-
side the open door, the sound of ham,
mer and saw is heard, the bondage oil
the year is broken, and - the world
is in the glory of resurrection.
No grave is SO deep as to shut ou
the gentle voice of hope; no day SC
dark and stormy as to shut out the light
OF faith. SO men look up and go or
as the children do; as the birds do
They cannot always see the way, bu
hope and faith say there is way, ant
that the light will come and point i
out some day. The winter may b
cold and long, and patience ma,
be tried in slush and rain and snow
and yet the triumph of resurrection i
not doubted and men look forward t
the summer day, ard plan accord
ingly.
And SO the years come and the year
go, and nature repeats over and owe
the story OF the death and resurrection
Of our Lord and hope and fait
: minister to US, saying if we will we ma
be like Him.
On Easter morning we look towar
the source of light and life, and invok
the warmth that shall start afresh tn
pulses of our natures, and bring US tn
: songs of birds and flowers of immorta
, spring. At our feet lies the narro'
5 grave, and yonder the home of tn
) soul. 1t is a weary way. 1t has il
betrayers. 1t has its Gethsenane
1t has its crowns of thorns. But bo
your head to the upifted finger {
hope and listen; it is the music {
paradise far or near away.
BE of good cheer.
Whosoever will may have enern
life.
