The RECORDER would earnestly i'm
press upon all Democrats, and those
having leaning to the Democratic
principles, the Importance of this
campaign and the results. We
should not forget that we have an
honest, able, faithful President, who
has shown himself to be the friend
of the people and ON the side of the
people, and We should see to it that
he is reelected. i've should not for
get the darkdays of Republican rule
in North Carolina and what it meant.
and should see to it that the gallant
Fowle is not defeated. We should
not forget that the next Legislature
is to elect a United State Senator and
we should see to it that the Demo-
cratic candidates are elected that
they may return a Democratic SEN
ator to represent us in Congress,
Nor should we forget our duty to the
efficient gentlemen who have been
nominated on the Democratic ticket
to fill our county offices. Let us re-
member these things and all see to
it that Durham does will her part in
the great contest.

Mr.. GEORGE G. GoRHAx, one of
aMahone's old confreres, is weary of
Republieanism, and revolts from
Harrison and Morton. He speaks Of
his party's present policy on the
question Of taxation as "a policy ad-
vocating tariff for trusts with IN
eidental protection" He thinks
that Harrison will be only a tool in
Blaine's hands, and he hates Blaine
with all the bitterness possible to a
follower Of Grant and Conkling. His
opinion Of Mr.. Blaine is so striking,
and doubtless so true, that we are
unable to resist the impulse to give
it at once:
"The Republican contest this year
represents mainly Mr.. Blaine, and
he represents only his own appetite
and that Of his Unsuitable millionaire
clients. The Democratic party re-
presents Mr.. Cleveland, who is
charged with no unmanly crime OF
tendency. He never knelt and beg
ged for letters he had written. He
never combined with opponents to
defeat the measures Of his party.
He never perilled the peace Of the
country to secure guano beds for his
friends. IL elected he will not make
an assignment of his Administration
to anybody. IfMr. Tweed were liv.
ing, and if his subchieftains were
hauling him about the country and
exhibiting him as the next Secretary
OF the Treasury, some Democrat:
would revolt and wait for better
days. In the same frame Of MIND
Republicans who do not want Har.
rison elected bad enough to see tn,
Government placed in the hands Of
Blaine will not cease to be Republi
cans, but will refuse TO further tn,

Very Greatly Out of Place.

highest respect for the " oman
Christian Temperance Union and this
writer has ever used his pen in their
behalf, and in other fields of labor
has written much in their praiseand
the noble efforts they areputting for
ward in a noble cause. We say this
much to show that We have none
other than kind feelings for the or
ganization. 1t is our opinion that
twas instituted for special work in
the moral reforms of this day.
On Tuesday last Mrs. Ellen j.
Foster, President of the VIC. 7. u,
at the head of delegation, went be-
fore the Senate Of these United
States, and with her co-workers,
plead for a continuance of high tax
alton; in other words Protection.
As the head and representative of
this great Christian band of workers,
she assumed a partisan attitude on
political question now agitating the
minds of this nation, and she COM
promised the organization to which
she belongs We cannot see what
high protection has to do with the
aims and objects Of social reform
organization.
We agree intirely with the Lynch
burg Viiginian, that she was med
ding with a matter with which she
had no business. Mrs. Foster said
that from her observation the con-
dition of the working-women in
Europe was much worse than that of
the same class here; that their wages
were not only less, but that they
were more enslaved TO capital and
monopoly.
To this the Virginian goes on to
say that this may or not be true.
There are a great many more hun
dreds Of thousands more working
women in Europe than there are in
the United States, and it may be that
in the fight for bread many Of them
work for less sum than is received
by the average American worker Of
their class, but if their condition is
mnch worse than that Of thousands
Of women in the great industrial
centres Of this country, we can only
say God pity them. Taking popula-
ton and natural resources into con-
sideration, we firmly believe that
there is a. much misery and wretch.
edness, in proportion, to the square
mile in this broad, new, free, rich
land as there is in Europe, and the
tendency Is toward a still lower
scale Of living.
Ii is worthy Of note that while
Mrs. Foster pleads fora continuance
Oftariff taxation upon the necessaries
of life, which American working.
women are compelled to buy, she
saws not Ia word about restricting the
immigration to this country Of the
multitudes Of impoverished female
wage-wOrkers from the crowded
cities Of Europe women who come
here TO compete with our own poor
women for the miserable pittanees
which they receive for their cease
less toll.
We repeat that Mrs.. Foster is en-
tihy out Of place in going before the
Senate on such a mission. She nlAy

eau party by 80 doing, but il is very
evident that she isn't promoting the
cause Of temperance.

The Democrats of Durham county
have put out full ticket to thevery

this Office, and Register of Deeds,
several independent candidates have
sprung M. BY this action they
have come out from party organiza-

the ties which must necessarily hold
parties together, and seek to draw
around them hybrid support sufii-

There is no good reason why Dem

reasons against it. Therefore, the

Durham township, should work the
harder and gain a victory over the
combined forces against it.

CABBAGE CULTURE.

The following article from the pen
OLA correspondent Of the Wythe
vile Dispatch is here republishcd
i'll the hope that tho information
contained therein will he of value
to those Of our people who con
template an extensive cultivation
of this valuable vegetable. The re
narkable results attained in this
industry in the neighboring county
of Wythe should warrant a tri..l
here, where climate and soil so
nearly correspond with those across
the mountain.
WHEN TO PLOw THE GROUND.
The ground Should be plowed MS
early III the spring as possible, cs.
pcciaily if it be - heavy sod, in or
der that the sod may have ample
time to rot, and that the irosts NAV
thoroughly pulvcrize the soil before
planting time. The main thing is
to have the soil in Il fine, pu.ver-
lied state, and this, il is impossi
Die to do if you defer blowing until
late in the spring. Twenty har
rowings will not put your ground in
as good condition as one or two
hard freezes. Land without sod
may be pIowed later iu the season,
some even breaking it up only Il
few days prior to planting, but on
the whole this is not the safest
plan. Harrow the ground well; the
little time lost in preparing the
soil before the crop is planted is
nothing when compared with the
Tabor saved in cultivation.

a few inches high, and keep it up
until the leaves arc so large that
the cultivator breaks them. Do
not pillow too near the plants while
young, but remove the grass &c.
near them with the hoe. If you
will properly use tho cultivator it
will require but little hocing. From
three TO four good plOwings and
the same number OF hoeings are
enough. Thin out the plants be-
fore they begin to spindle. a short
plant always makes tho best head.
Press the earth firmly around the
remaining plant, or it may get
stuntcd by pulling the others up.
The cultivator should not run very
deep; a few inches is sufficient.
To bury large quantities of cab
bage, set them in q row and run a
pillow OH each side. If there should
be any left uncovered you can fin.

FIGHT FOR THE "BREAKS.D

Tho bill to regulate the construc-
ton of railroads through mountain
passes OF Virginia came up in the
Senate OH its cngrossment with an
adverse recommendation from the
committee.
Mr.. Williams opposed it as tend
ing to hinder and stop the devel.
Opmcnt of the southwestern por-
ton Of the State.
Mr.. Gordon spoke in favor of the
measure, and was followed by Mr..
Rhca, who stated that the bill was
introduced at the instance of the
Charleston, Cincinnati and Chica-
go Railroad, and has been pushed
along by lObbics controlled by
them. Its title should be changed
to bill to give to that railroad, by
fraud, the right to control the
mountain passes of this State.
While, presumably, asking for the
protection OF the mountain passes,
it is in reality only protecting that
road, and keeping out competition.
1t wants to obtain n grasp upon
"tlic Big pass" the only outway
from Dickinson county into Ken
lucky, without any limit as to the
time ii, which the road is to be
constructed and placed in opera,
ton in this State.
Mr.. Moore subsequently spoke
vigorously in defence of the mea-
sure, and III opposition to an
amendment introduced by Mr.. Will
liams, providing that a railroad
shall be protected when it has SO
located it's line through such pass
as not to unrcasonably obstruct OF
prevent the location of another
railroad therein, when it is reason
ably practicable to do so, claiming
that it was merely a needless YER
biage.
Mr.. Williams, in response claim
ed that paper railroads, gotten up
for speculative purposes, would
hinder the development of that
section by companies who propose
going right to work. The three
CPS road haven't laid q mile of
track, or even surveyed for it,
sonth Of this pass, but in order to
taSlen its talons upon it, has start
ed in there to do Il little grading.
Mr.. Mills thought that the mea-
sure was an attempt TO lebar the
South Atlantic and Ohio Railroa
from passing through this gap as
contemplated,
