THIS HAS THE RIGHT RING,

The Alliance of Caldwell county
among other resolutions, passed the
following:
"We recognize in Senator Vance a
perfect man, a patriotic citizen, and
the highest type Of American states
manship, and we hereby declare
anew, our entire and absolute conf
dence in him, and our respect, and
alienation, and love for him.. Unless
we are very greatly mistaken, we
shall hear a great deal more of this
kind of talk in the next few DAYS.
The farmers certainly have many
wrongs to fight, and they are going at
with an earnestness and an enthusi-
asm that is commendable and which
means victory but in the white heat
of their zeal they are not going to lose
sight of the point that Senator Vance,
despite the fact he is candid enough to
declare his opposition to bill that he
thinks dangerous and unwise, is the
ablest and fastest friend the rank and
file Of the people of North Carolina
have in public life to day. Vance is
no fence straddler. He always speaks
ont ON any public question in no un-
certain or vague way. He has, more
over, always been the friend of the
people against monopolies of all kinds
Many OF his farmer friends aud admir-
ers feel grieved because he does not
agree with them on the sub-treasury
bill, they know at the same time that
he is absolutely honest in his convic-
lions; and it will be mighty cold day
and a long way off before they will
defeat him for cffice simply because
he does not support the sub treasury
bill.

A BOYCOTT ON NORTHERN INDus-
TRIES.

The Atlanta Constitution and Gov.
enor Gorden, of Georgia, are in favor
OF boycotting Northern industries if
the Force Bill is passed and urge the
calling of a Southern Convention TO
protest against the bill. Would this
be wise? We certainly ought to make
strong protests, and our Northern
commercial friends ought to
join us, but that boycutting machine
kicks both ways. We believe its un-
derlying principle is bad one and
always work more mischief than good.
Leaving aside the necessary pecuniary
! less which it always entails, it is a
breederof bad feeling and of inter
minable wrangles.
