A DEMOCRATIC TRUST
Those Concerned Will Be Unable to
Assert That 1t Originated With Re-
publicans.

CHARLOTTE, n. c., Sept. %.
The Southern Plaid Manufacturer Associa-
ton, which has been in session here for the
last three days, has adjourned. The pro-
ceedings have been kept a secret, but enough
is known to warrant the statement that the
prices have been fixed at seven and seven
and half cents for ordinary plaids, accord
ing to width of goods, and the discounts are
regulated according to time of credit asked.
This combination is the work of the Holt
Brothers four of whom are large mill own
ers in the Haw River country. Colonel
Thomas Holt, the eldest brother. is the DEM
ocra,ic candidate for Lieutenant Governor of
this State. He was made president Of this
'unholy alliance" but he has resigned,
knowing the danger his new connection
would have while appealing to the almos,
pauperized mill hand for his vote. While the
price of the plaid product was advanced, the
propriety of a reduction in wages was dis
cussed. Holt has not been solicited by hii
party to prove that trusts" originate with
republicans.

Wednesday

Was a decided improvement so far as wealth
er was concerned, and the result was a large
increase in attendance. The halls which ON
Tuesday had looked decidedly bare and dis
consulate soon filled with variety of the
products of Aroostook that spoke volumes
for its thrift and fertility. Farm, garden,
orchard, dairy and home were all represent
ed. The Aroostook ladies' were especially
active aud the part of the exhibit which
came from them was especially fine. Apples
plums, potatoes. tomatoes. turnips, cabbages,
beets. carrots, wheat, oats. beans, pumpkins,
squashes, etc, were displayed in an almost
endless variety, and the exhibit was in every
respect a worthy one. 1t has been said that
tue condition of the soil in Aroostook .
not well adapted to the raising of fruit trees,
but the exhibit at this fair seemed to disprove
this theory in most practical aud convinc-
ing manner. The specimens of fruit Oh the
tables were in large numbers, and of ex-
cellent quality. Among the best exhibits
were those of the Maysville Grange and of
Castle Hill Mr.. H. s. Blaisdell had speci-
mems of IA different seeding apples. Tilley
Bros. of Castle Hill showed specimens of
potatoes, wheat in the sheaf, and oats. Mr..
Penny of Presque Isle had Hebron potatoes
| on exhibition, four of which weighed 5 l-2
pounds, and Dakota Red potatoes, four
weighing pounds, II ounces. Mr.. Z. +.
Parkhurst had Rose po tatoes, four weighed
3 3-4 pounds, and Hebrons, for weighed 5
l-2 pounds. These potatoes were fair speci-
mems of many others contributed by many
other persons. Mr.. Penney stated that the
potatoes he exhibited were picked from the
| top of load which he sent to the starch fac
tory, that he had six acres of potatoes winch
would yield 400 bushels to the acre. They
laying 25 cents per bushel at the factory,
and of course his six acres will pay him $500.
| 1t is said that the potato crop everywhere is
/ coming in with an abundant yield. On the
whole, the exhibition in all of its depart.
ments was very good and satisfactory.

How to Judge Clevelands Sentiments

When Mr. Mckinney of New Hampshire,
made his defence of the President he said we
judge of a mans sentiment toward any matter
by the action he takes when it is presented to
him for action Now in twenty-four years re-
publican Presidents have vetoed eight pension
bills, and all for cause. In three years Pres-
dent Cleveland has vetoed l79 bills. The
claim is made that President Cleveland has
signed more bills than any other President.
A President can sign more bills than
Congress passes. President Cleveland has
had ample opportunity to show his senti-
ments to the Union soldiers and Mr.. Nc
Kenny says that he is a representative of the
democratic party.

The merchants all over the State are
greatly agitated over the failure of the farm
ers to bring in their cotton. This failure 10
due to the fact that the southern farmers
have absolutely declined to use jute bagging
at all and are holding the cotton in their gin
houses, waiting to find some way to get
ahead of the cotton bagging trust. Up to
this time year ago 1,l43 bales of cotton

AROOSTOOK,
The Garden Of Maine.
The PfeSqus Isle Pair a Success In Spite
Of Bad Weather.
What the Future Has in Store for This
6eotion OF Maine.

PREsouE ISLE, Sept. q.
If anyone were disposed to doubt Aroos-
took's claim to being the garden of Maine,
trip among the prosperous farms, and es-
pecially a visit to one of its fairs, would
speedily dispel the illusion. The great pro-
ductive resources of this fertile section of
the Pine Tree State are only beginning to be
thoroughly appreciated by the outside world.
The extent Of the land which is annually put
into crops in this county reads more like
report from the western prairies than state
ment of fact concerning a section of New
England Aroostook people are preverbially
hospiiable and the visitor of this section al
ways carries home with him pleasant men,
cries of its genial inhabitants.
The Northern Aroostook Fair
opened Tuesday. The exhibit was in all
respects most creditable one. Some fine
cattle were shown and it was plainly evident
from this exhibit that the farmers of this sec
ton are coming more and more to give spec
ial attention to thoroughbred stock. This is
the past few years large number of thor
oughbred stock bulls, Durhams, Herefords
and Holsteins have been brought into the
county and the result of this importation of
pure blood is beginning to make itself mani
fest in an improved grade of stock. Miss
Trask of this place was the ouly aspirant for
the prize IN the ladies' driving match. She
covered the course in fine shape, winning
much applause by her fine riding. The
foot race was won by Medford b. Hayes.

WILMINGTON, Del. Sept. 23.
At large democratic meeting last night
Secretary Bayar,i made the closing speech,
occupying about twenty minutes. He fol-
lowed Senator Vance of North Carolina. and
confined himsel to the tariff. He said
the tariff lacked the impartiality which
should pervade all law. To him it was one
of the most deplorable and dangerous fea
lures of our tariff system. 1t was conceiv-
ed in selfishness was marked throughout by
the departure from that spirit of equality in
law and equality under the law which forms
the very bed rock of American liberty and
justice under the American constitution.
