Inherited Blood Poison.

How many people there are whose dis
tress from sores, aches, pains and erup-
tive tendencies are due to inherited blood
poison. Bad blood passes from parent
to child, and it therefore is the duty of
husband an! wife to keep their blood
pure. This is easily accomplished b.
timely use of B. B. B Botanic Blood
Balm). Send to Blood Balm Co., At
lanta, for book of most convincing proof.
James Hill, Atlanta, Ga, writes: my
two SONS were afflicted with blood poi
son, which doctors said was hereditary
They both broke out in sores and erui J
tions which B. B. b. promptly contrC j
led and finally cured completely"
Mrs. S. NJ. Williams, Sandy. Tex IS
writes: ''My three poor afflicted chi Id
rem, who inherited blood poison, h. ~,
improved rapidly after use of B. B. B
1t is Godsend."

A BIG RAILROAD MOVE.

Richmond, Va, Feb. 26-The
House 'mmittee on roads have
before them a bill to allow the
Alexandria and Fredericksburg,
Richmond, Fredericksburg and
Potomac, Richmond and Peters
burg, Farmville and PowhataD,
the Petersburg, Meherrin Valley
and Wilmington and Weldon
Railroad Companies to consoli-
date into one company to be
known as the Atlantic Coast
Railway Company. One Of the
features Of the act is that any
road exempted from State
taxation will forfeit that privi-
lege upon the acceptance Of the
consolidation term. 1t is said
that the Richmond Terminal Is
trying to gobble up these lines
and it is thought best to con-
solidate, Which will make such
a scLeme more difficult.
The State says in this con-
nection: "It has been rumorad
in railroad and financial circles
for some time that the Rich
mond and West Point Terminal
which controls the Richmond
and Danville and other great
lines, was trying to get control
of the Coast Line system. It is
understood that such an ambi-
tious attempt as that would be
difficult to accomplish, but to
make it still more difficult the
Coast Line people propose to
consolidate their roads into one
company. At least the pro.
posed scheme will be constr ued
in the railroad world partly as
a checkmate move"

THE NEW BERNE EXHIBI-
TION.

We congratulate the New
Bernians oD the fine success OF
their Third Exhibition, OF
which all bear such decided
testimony. This display is said
to be all that could bave been
expected and large crowds had
the pleasure of seeing it. Much
to our own disappointment, We
were not of the number. We
had very much at heart that
Northern gentlemen who are
recognized authority In fish and
game should attend, and are
pleased to see from The Journal
that among those present was
Mr.. Charles Hallock, associate
editor Of the American Angler
who declared he display to be
F.swonderful beyond descrip
ton" He says further that he
had never seen an sagregatior
of so mary different kinds %
fresh fsh at one timr,not even a
the annual Opening display al
York Fulton market in April
He mentioned also that he had
the assurance of United States

We are pleased TO learn that
the South Carolina Farmers AS
sociation, which has created
such ripple in the political
circles recently by calling a con-
vention of farmers to nominate
a State ticket, is not connected
with the Farmers Alliauce. IT
is a different organization en-
tirely.
Our readers will remember
our comments upon the move
ment several weeks since in
this column. But even as an
Independent movement it is
very unwise and much to be re-
gretted. There are as good,
true, honest, upright people in
one profession as another and
they all have rights which must
be respected. Profession array
ed against profession is one of
the saddest spectacles that ever
humiliated and weakened Re-
publican form Of government.
1t is one Of the evils that our
form of government was intend
ed to prevent. When one pro-
fession rules to the exclusion of
the others then we will have
the anomaly under a Republi-
can form of ovarnlneDt of tax
alton without representation
There may be grievOus wrongs
but such a remedy is worse than
the wrongs.

The Forum, one of the ablest
magazines of the day, has sew
eeral valuable articles in it's
March number. Prof. Hart, of
Harvard, has an article on civil
service, pointing out why there
has been no popular demand
for it. Prof. James Willis Gleed,
of the University OF Kansas, :,
who has, perhaps, had as large
an experience as any man in the
handling of Western mortgages,
writes an explanation Of their
nature, and of what they have
accomplished for borrowers and
lenders in the development Of
the West, not forgetting to point
out certain dar gers of the sys-
TEN. This article is a tull re-
view of the subject of lending
and borrowing money OH West
ern real estate, and of the rise
and operations Of investment
companies. Mr.. A. K. Fiske,
with all the reverence Of an Or
thodox believer writes a protest
against dogma in the Protestant
Churches. and an appeal for a
tchurch organization based not
on creed but on conduct. An
other religious essay is by Arch
deacon Farrar, who writes of the
good aud the evil done by mo-
nasticism-an essay apropos of
the discussion Of establishing
brotherhoods in the Episcopal
Church. Frederick Harrison,
the distinguished English critic,
who writes now, we believe, for
the first time in an American
periodical, makes comparisons
| between he condition of the
French pesantry of to-day and
of one hundred years ago; from
which he draws the conclusion
that the ability to possess land
!, has changed the. French Peasant
from one of the most misera BILE
to one of the happiest and most
substantial types of men in mod.
ern Europe. We need such &
change in America. We have

In every days paper we CAN
count several boiler explosions,
and in nine-tenths Of the cases
it Is caused by the ignorance of
the engineer. In snch cases the
engineers are men with no edu
cation, lin the South mostly ne
groes), who have been shown
how to start and how to stop the
engine, bnt men who know lit
tie or nothing of the structura
of engines and boilers, and who
have no conception of the great
expansive force Of steam. In
every case of an explosion much
property is destroyed, and in
nearly every case many lives
are blown into eternity. Las
week the Lannier distillery al
Salisbury was blown to atom:
and forr people killed and {
number 60 mangled that deatf
would he d blessing.
The greensboro Patriot says
"The " ater in the boiler wa'
low and Bea yer, who was a nov
ice at engine running, sud
denly tn rned on the cold water.
My great grandfather met dealt
in the sa me way. He was cap
tain of a vessel, and an ignoran
engineer blew it to atoms BY
pumping cold water into a no
boiler. Engineer, should be ed
ucated antl cautious Inen. Tney

THE EDITORS CHAIR.
HOW THINGS LOOK FROM
OUR STAND POINT.
The Opinion Of The Caucasian and
the Opinion OF others which we
Can Endorse on the Various
Topics OF the Day.

Our people can remember, not
mahy years ago, when a case
would stay in court from five to
twenty years waiting For a hear
ing, 40 crowded was the docket.
The spring term of court for the
hearing Of civil cases in this
county was a. two weeks term,
covering last week and this.
Court was at work only about
two days. We met a citizen, he
called our attention to the fact
that the morals, or rather the
sense Of justice in our county
was decidedly on the increase.
We met a lawyer, he called our
attention to the fact that our
county was in a bad way. lie
said when people were prosper
GUS that there was much con-
tict of interest and much litiga-
ton, and that people were then
able to defend their rights.
Now which is right? We went
to dinner and took a seat by
Judge Graves. We asked for
his opinion. He said it was due
to a narrowing o oftLe field oflitigation
by the Legislature and the deci-
sions of the Supreme Court. Fer
instance the Supreme Court has
decided that when a man com
mits tort, wrong for which he
is amendable in damages, that
he can "take water" under the
homestead act. This decision
is clearly wrong, it was not for
the protection of wrong doers
that the homestead law was
passed. The Judge, we believe,
is right, for there would be
equally as much justice in Civ
ing the man who commits a
wrong against the State the ben
eft of the exemption as The man
who commits a wrong against
his neighbor. Under this de-
cision at least nine-tenths OF
the citizens of this county can
be lawless in their acts toward
their felIOw-1nan and still not
be amenable before the courts
There are at least twenty such
grievances in this county thai
would have been before the last
term of this court had it moi
been for this decision. By il
twenty aggrieyed persons mus
bear their unrequited wrongs
and two wrong doers 60 unpun
ished. Let the constitutionality
of the decision be tested. The
Farmers Alliance committee
on the good of the order hav,
done much to lessen the mum
Der of cases, but the fact is still
y as we have stated it.

INTERESTING DISCUSSIONS.


At the Farmers Institute
held in Kinston last week, there
were mary interesting points
We learn from the Free Pres
brought out. Prof. Chamberlain
said. He heard q cotton manu-
facturer say IL he used the same
kind OF machinery now that he
used 80 years ago 1t would
bankrupt him in six months.
We have to keep up with the
imp owed methods and inple-
ments of farming, "a well as
do manufacturers have to keep
up with the improved methods
and mac hines in their business,
to succeed.
STOCK RAISING AND MANURE.
The speaker spoke at length
on the great advantages Of rails
ing stock. He said large stock
raising is the means by which
the lands of England have been
redeemed in a few years from
poor to the richest lands in the
world. The manures produced
by the cows are worth more
than the milk. A horse makes
about nine tons of fertilizers
each year. Fifteen to twenty
pei cent. Of the manure from
stock is lost by exposure. There
is q loss in waiting for manure
to rot, much Of its strength be
ing lost by teaching in the
ground. He wan.ed the ques
tion of rotted or fresh manur,
discussed here today.
The time has come for tn,
use of less commercial aut
more homemade fertilizers
which must collie from stock. /
ton of clover hay worth 80, i
fed to cattle will produce
manure worth IS; a ton of cot
ton seed meal worth $2S, whel
fed to cattle will produc
manure worth $25.25; bra
worth $17, fed to cattle will
produce manure worth SILL
Some allowance for waste mus
be made, but it ia safe to ca
culate manure worth 1872
from So worth of clover; $1O,5
worth of manure from $17 wort
of bran; $22.OS worth of manur
from 1928 worth o. cot on see
meal. After this will 20
continue to buy commercia
guano?
One inch OF rainfall gives 10
tons o. water per acre. Ever
! ton Of water passed through
) ton of manure carries ava
about 60 cents worth Of plar
; food. Can you afford to leac
the manure before carrying
, to the field? So worth of hors
stable manure was exposed
the weather and in six month
lost AZ per cent. Of its value, :
l that it was only worth $l,74.

THE CATTLE Rot FLY.

CLINTON, \. c., March i, 80. |
During the past few weeks |
the writer has heard SO much
complaint of the ravages Of
that prevalent PEST o: cattle, the
Cad Fly, or Rot Fly, that goes
by the popular and meaningless
name OF "wolt"), and has head
so many inqniring for q remeay
against their damages that, with
your permission, Mr.. Editor, he
will give briefly some import
ant facts relative 10 the pesti-
lent insect for the benefit Of the
farmers and others interested
in cattle who read THE CAucA-
SIAN. And right now Is a most
opportune time for su .gssti
an effective remedy. Now the
pest can be easily exterminated,
for on account of its habits IL
car be easily reached and every
one of the race destroyed. The
pests are now within the swell
ings which they make on the
hacks Of cattle and which can
be easily felt by passing the
hand over the skin. The grubs
may be removed by squeezing
the tumors, when they will be
forced out, and then be crushed.
IL the opening in the skin Is too
small it may be- enlarged with
the sharp point of a knife to
facilitate the removal OF the
grub. IL this is not done now
when warm weather comes the
grubs will canie out and drop
to the ground, where they will
remain until July, when they
will mature into perfect flies
and repeat tue round of exis
tence of their species. The fly
attacks its victims in the late
summer by stiBging them or
the back and depositing an egl
in the place stung. The eggs
thus deposited become small
white grubs, which form an alb
scess under the skin, causing tb,
secretion of puss by the irrita
tion produced, and living upol
this as their food. They grow
rapidly to a large size ant
breathe through a hole in tn
skin, which always remain
open. There they stay durinI
the winter a source of constan
irritation to their victims, an
thereby preventing their full
growt and greatly reducing tn
yield Of milk. The fly is mucl
: like a bee in appearance and !
} larger than the horse-bot fly
which lays its eggs on the hal
! of the animal.
, lis attacks upon cattle may b
prevented by smearing thei
1 backs with grease. with whic
| a small quantity of crude ca
bolic acid has been mixed.

STARTLING EXPENDITURES.

The Government estimates for
current expenses, as shown by
Mr.. Peters, q Representative
from Kansas, in a recent speech
In the House, foot up S442.OO0,-
900. That itself is somewhat
startling. But, in addition, there
are schemes upon schemes.
The following measures for
squandering are being pressed
by Republicans in Congress:
Prison Pension Bill, 11,500,0OO
Arrears Of pensions, All, ,0U0, 900
Service pension bill, l44, 900, 600
Dependent pension
bill, $685. 800
Dolph's fortification
bill, $4,000, 900
Blair bill, S7,OO0,OOO
River and Harbor bill 1000. 900
Total. 1,25l, 900. 900
Now the estimated revenue
for the year is S45, 100000 or on
ly about one-third OF the above
figures.
Certainly all Of their schemes
will Lot carry. The G. o. P.
will not be 80 reckless as to pass
all If these measures. but enough
will probably be adopted to
bankrupt the Treasury. The
surplus will go where the wood
bine twineth, and the country
saddled with the charge OF sc
many unnecessary expenditures
will labor under an intolerable
burden and the groans Of the
people will be heard throughout
the land. News and Observer
