FARMERS MEETING AND SPEAR

FARMERS MEETING AND SPEAK
ING.-As already announced Mr..
Harry Tracy. of Texas, National Lee
turer of the Farmers Alliance, will adj
dress the farmers of Vance county in
the court house here next Saturday.
He is spoken of in high terms by the
press of the State where he has been
as a good speaker and sound adviser.
Let every farmer come to hear him.
Mr.. Tracy spoke in Greensboro last
week and the North State says this of
him:
Many OF his arguments in favor OF
farmers organizations for self-protection
were well founded and unanswerable.
He insisted that the farmer, more than
any other man, is beset with snares to
entrap him into squandering his means
and wasting his substance. That the
bane of the farmer is the mortgage sys-
tenn. That the want of education is to q
great extent the cause of all his ills. And
he therefore argued that the first step
toward the emancipation of our farming
classes from the thraldom which now en-
circles them is education. He further ad-
vised that they keep free from debt and
that they band together for mutual pro-
lection, in order to meet the multifarious
"trusts'' and combines that are organ
lied in every branch of trade to create
fictitious demands and unj ustifiable
prices for all articles of prime necessity
The speaker further asserted that the
safety of the State and the perpetuity OF
the Nation depended largely upon the
Improvement and elevation of the farm
ing interest, and he also demonstrated
by figures taken from the census reports
that as the land owners in this country
diminished, the nihilists and anarchists
increased, and that while the farmer
loved his home and country and wonlt
fight for their preservation, the anarchist
detested all legalized forms of govern
ment and gloried in their destruction.

The fact that good health, strong muscles
and sound nerves are attainable should en-
courage every invalid to an earnest en-
deavor in the right direction. Remember
all disease owes its origin, more or less. to
a lack Of iron in the blood. Iron in the
blood means health. strength and vigor.
Analyze the blood of an invalid and little
or no iron will be found. Healthy mems
blood Is full of iron. The best method Of
supplying this lack Of iron Is by using

able opportunities of observing Nation
al thanksgivings. April 5, 1898, was
thus held with great rejoicings to cele-
hrate the first of Marlborough's victor
les over the French in Holland. All
the American colonists had good time
on August 2, when salutes were fired
commemorate thegreatv victory of Blen-
helm by the same commander. FL
Of all Thanksgiving days held in
obedience to orders from the English
crown, that of Nov. 13, 1859, touched
most nearly the hearts of the future
American Nation. For in that year
the gallant Gen. Wolfe, aided by some
of the best blood in the colonies, had
stormed the heights of Abraham and
taken Quebec from the French.
The beginning of the end was seen in
thanksgiving held by the colony OF
Rhode Island on June Is, 1853. That
day was proclaimed a general holiday
by the Governor at the request of the
General Assembly, "in acknowledge
ment to the Supreme Being for the re-
peal of the late act of parliament impos.
ing stamp duties.n
Thenceforward National Thanksgiv-
ing days rested on the surel founda-
tions of the peoples will. During the
revolutionary wars, the observance OF
an annual National holiday was rec
commended by Congress, and faithfully
hept by the whole people. In 1889
Washington. in message to Congress,
recommended the setting apart of a,
day of thanksgiving to celebrate the
adoption of the Constitution. The Ov.
erthrow of a local rebellion in 1896 was
similarly observed, in accordauce with
the tenor of another message by the
President. ..,.., ......,., ................
In 1915 President Madison proclaimed
day of National thanksgiving ON ac.
count of the peace which closed the wal
of 1872. For fourty-eight years no such
day wac observed, until the custom was
revived by Lincoln in 1868. Il
During all this time the New En-
gland States were holding annua
Thanksgivings on their own account.
It is but fitting that in the evolution
of this truly National holiday the orig
inal occupiers of the soil should hav,
their part. The Protestant Episcopa
prayer book of1789 gives the first Thurs
day in November as the day for thu
observance of the annual thanksgiving
except some other day is selected by tn
civil authorities.
The time now taken every year b.
the latter is the last Thursday of No
vember. It was about this time eacl

A CANADIAN REPUBLIC.

French Papers in the Dominion Ad-

Example.
New YORK, Nov. 21.-A Montreal

a number OF French papers, including
La Patrie, LIE Lecteur, Canadian and
Levenement, declare this morning in
favor of Canadian republic, The
Herald of this city, the chief organ of
the dominion opposition, says that the
English people are slow to make consti-
tutional changes, dut adds that it is un-
safe to say what the force of example
and the increasing intercourse of Great
Britain and America, backed by the
further blackguardism of persons in
high position, might not do. 1t would,
of course, make no difference whatever
to Canada were the English monarchy
to give place to a republic beyond the
impetus that such change might give
tothe train ofthought that leads think
er to the conclusion that tits nearly time
Canada busted herself about her own
independence. Australia, which is a
baby among nations, is already consid-
erlng the propriety of establishing an
Australian nation.

supposed that he would go direct to

here are to the effect that he will spend
the winter at least in TOulon, varied by
occasional visits to Nice.
One of the most remarkable things
connected with the charge of govern
ment 10 Brazil is the fact that 1t is i'm
possible TO get any replies to private
dispatches sent to Rio. One gentleman,
who has enormous interests in Brazil,
has been waiting five days for an an
swer to his cable and deferred his de-
parture hence awaiting an answer. He
would have taken passage on the steam
er which left New York on Wednesday,
had he received an answer. A censor
ship has evidently been established
over all cable messages, particu-
larly those inquiring into the condi-
tion of the new order of things, and
what effect 1t will have upon the com
mercial world.

WINTER IS COMING.
The December Weather will be Very

Severe in the United States.
Topeka, Kan, Nov. 20.-To the ed
itor: The weather during December,
1889, will be very severe in the United
States, Canada AMI most of Europe.
Part of the time it will be pretty stormy,
with high winds, and the rest of the
time it will he very cold. The precipi-
tation will be in the form of snow in
nearly all of the northern states and
Canada. 1t will he pretty heavy in the
gulf and Atlantic states, but in the in
terror the precipitation will fluctuate,
being heavy in some places and small
in others, averaging normal. On the
Pacific coast the temperature and rain.
fall will average about normal. In Eu.
rope it will be cool to very cold, with
small precipitation in Russia and large
in parts of Western Europe. In the
wheat regions of India it will not be as
warm as usual, while the rainfall will
be greater than the average for thai
month. The present moderate spell
which last month I predicted for the
middle of this month, will soon termi
nate, and winter weather will begin by
the 25th of November. g. G. BLAKE.
