The nomination of Hon. GEORGE l..

THE nomination of Hon. GEORGE l..
YAPLE as the democratic candidate for
congress exactly suits the republicans
of this congressional district. Mr..
YAPLE has the reputation of being an
out and out freetrader, so that there
ought to be no Misunderstanding of the
issue, so far as he and Mr.. BURROWS
and their respective followers are con
cerned The farmers of the district
have not forgotten the saying of Mr..
YAPLE that he did not vote for an in
crease of the wool tariff and that by
the EterndW he never would. They
will welcome the opportunity to vote
for him-to stay at home. He will be
so badly beaten that he will never be
again resurrected as congressional
candidate

WHAT THE FARMERS DEMAND.

By reference to another column our
readers will see some measures which
the Farmers State Alliance demands
at the hands of our Legislature. At
it's session in August it adopted these
resolutions without a dissenting voice,
and regarded them of such Importance
that they were ordered to be published
in this paper for the term Of two
months, and the press of the State was
requested to copy them.
Of course The PROGRESSIVE FARMER
most heartily endorsed each and all of
them. 1t is known to our readers
throughout the State, that we have
advocated these measures from the
time this paper was established, and
we are proud to know that its views
have received the high endorsement of
the able and patriotic men in that
body who were the representatives of
our powerful order. We are gratiied
moreover, to see the Alliance of Rich
mond and Franklin counties ratifying
these resolutions. Let the Alliances
throughout the State discuss these
resolutions and pass upon them. Let
them demand of the candidates for the
Legislature an expression of their
views and positions on them. They
relate to matters that are of great i'm
portance to our struggling and op-
pressed taxpayers. The farmers need
these laws, and they want them and
the way to get them is to let our
Legislature know.that they NEAR what
they say. What Alliances will follow
Richmond and Franklin? This paper
proposes to be the medium through
which the people may speak to the
Legislature. It proposes to stand un-
finchingly by the people in all just de-
mands for needful Legislation. Let
the Alliances speak with a united voice
and they will be heard.

duty in the approaching election,
necessitated his resignation as n of
the Trustees of our Agricultural Col
lege. The charter requires that the
Trustees of that Institution shall be
equally divided between the two
parties. Under the circumstances,
his action is highly c~ommendable and
honorable. i. But The PROGRESSIVE
FARMER expresses its profound regret
at the enforced retirement from the
Board of u infant College, of n
who has shown such an enthusiastic in
terest in it's we'll being and who is in
every way so worthy and competent
to. advance its interests and it records
its, emphatic protest against a policy
which jeopardizes the usefulness Of
this or other institutions, by subject
ing them to the tickle and arbitrary
behests of party bossism. .'
W. respect and applaud a manly
fidelity to party, but when party spirit
fed and infamed by designing men,
threatens to invade the council rooms
of our colleges and dictate that par
tisans only shall sit at the council
board, it is time for the friends Of
education and progress to sound the
alarm.

PAPER.

In the review of trade for the past
week, by R. G.. Dunn & CO., we find
the following:
"The great branches of industry
are making fair. progress. The re-
ported dividends OF New England
mills, mainly. cotton, show that the
past year has been decidedly pros
porous"
Certainly. Banks, railroads, mines,
foundries and every department of
manufacturing, mercantile business,
cities, towns, yillages-all and. every
thing is prospecting, except those who
clothe and feed the world. New Eng
land mills and manufacturers prosper,
while New England farmers are grow.
ing poorer every day. Real estate in
cities and towns doubles in value,
while the lands of the farmer are de-
preciating every day. Our National
Treasury is overlooking with millions
of dollars, wrung from the hard earn
inggs OF the people, while they are
suffering and sinking for the want of
money. Congress talks "tarif" and
"party while trusts, combines and
syndicates are robbing the people, and
when approached through committees
or by petition for relief, our complaints
are referred to investigating commit
tees, while the members talk "party'
and "tarif."

OUR STATE DEPARTMENT OF
AGRICULTURE.

No man in North Carolina pays a
penny to sustain this Department but
our farmers. 1t, was established for
them and they should be consulted as
to it's management. Since it's estab.
lishment in 1877, it has expended about
four hundred thousand dollars. Thou
sands of dollars have been spent on
immigration; thousands of dollars
have been spent on fish and oyster
culture; thousands of dollars have
been spent ON expositions, and the
Legislature seeming to regard this
fund of the farmers as an all-purpose
fund, established a Bureau of Labor
and Statistics and they draw on that
fund to support that Bureau, Is this
fair7 Is this just? Is this. right? Are
the farmers of the State the only ones
who are interested in securing immi-
grafton? Are they the only ones inter
ested in raising fish and oysters? Are
they the only ones interested in dis
playing the of the State?
Are they the only ones interested in a
Bureau of Labor and Statistics? Are
not all the people interested in these
things? If so, ought they not to be
supported out of the general fund?
We ask our readers to give US their
views on this subject and especially do
we commend it's thoughtful considera-
ton to the farmers of the State. We
will have more to say on this subject
next week and we purpose giving our
views as to some changes which, in
our Judgment, should be made for the
benefit of our farmers.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1888-10-16
HOPEFUL AND ENCOURAGING.

We hope for much from our next
Legislature. So far as we know them
personally, the nominees for both
branches are men of splendid character
and sterling patriotism. They are
not chronic o~fice-seekers and political
dead beats. They are taxpayers, and
for the most part are. farmers. The
absence of professional men among
them is striking. We have not the
list before us, but we recall the names
of such lawyers as Mr.. Pou, of John
ston; Mr.. Carter, of Buncombe; Mr..
Little, of Arson; Col. Mears, of Ca
barrus; MI. LIE Grand, of Richmond;
whom we anxiously hope to e elected,
for we know where these gentlemen
stood when it required nerve and
moral courage and patriotism to stand
by the farmers interests and the
farmers rights. We will publish the
list of the members elected, giving
the avocation of each, as soon as the
election is over. -.a

WHAT SAY YOU7

The Alliance in Richmond; Franklin
and Durham counties, has endorsed
the demands" of our State Alliance
for legislation in regard to convict
labor, free passes, enlarged jurisdiction
of magistrates and a railroad commits
sion which are published on the 5th
page Of this paper. Read them carefully
and If you endorse them, have your
candidates for the Legislature to- take a
position on them and require them to
tell you what they waU do about them,
if elected. Let the farmers of the
State know through THE PROGRESSIVE
FARMER, where you stand in regard to
them. The counties above named
have spoken. What say you?
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1888-10-16
PARTY SPIRIT SHOULD BE RE-
STRAINED.

We are IN advocate of parties. We
believe they are a necessity under a
republican form of government.
Guided and sustained by patriotism
and wisdom they are c~onservators Of
the liberties of the people, but when
inspired and controlled by extremists,
or men of selfish design and ambition
they become dangerous to good gov
eminent and to the we'll being of So
ciety. Instances are not wanting in
the life of our. young Republic to illus
trate this truth. But it is not when
excited and maddened Party Spirit
rallies and marshals opposing forces
that the citadel of our liberties is most
imperilled. 1t cannot be captured by
wild assault and surprise. It must be
done by the slow insidious process of un-
dermining and while the sentinels sleep
on their posts. Advocate, as we are
of parties, yet there are interests too
sacred to be committed to their capri.
cious guardianship. We believe that
in our own State there are institutions
on which the shadow of party spirit
should never rest. Our University,
Agricultural and Mechanical Col
lege-all our institutions of learning
our charitable institutions, our State
Agricultural Department-the entire
Judiciary Department of our State
government, from Magistrate to Chief
Justice and the office of Superinten-
dent of Public Instruction, should be
beyond and forever above the arbi-
trary mandates of party rule.
We are led to the expression of
these thoughts by the published letter
of Gen. Rufus Barringer last week, in
which he declared that his purpose to
vote according to his convictions of
