Murdered in Davidson.

We learn that a few days since,
while a party of young men were
bathing in the Yadkin river, in
Boone township, Davidson county,
about II miles from Lexington, Rob-
ert Smith and Thomas Sharp became
involved in difficulty, resulting in a
fight, in which Sharp rather got the
best oft. Some time after this they
met again at the house of old man
Dedmond, when the trouble was re-
neWed. Smith entered the house and
procured a pistol and came out and
struck Sharp on the head with it,
knocking him down. He then, while
he was down, deliberately shot him
through the stomach, from the effects
of which he died Saturday night.
The deceased, Thomas Sharp, was
thes6As of Richard Sharp, one of Da-
wilson county's best river farmers.
He had attended school at Trinity
College, and recently returned from q
two years course at Chapel Hill.
Smith has succeeded in making his
escape.

Ir,s a Mighty Cold Day

In January when Pe-ru-na fails Co keep you warm. When the clustering blasts of Winter envelop your body In sheir Icy embrace, and seem to freeze your very marrow when you shiver and shake with the cold chiIls that creep over you and pierce you to the very bone: then it is that you will find, if you try it, that there is nothing so conn fortably warming and so mildly invig- erating as this same Pe-ru-na. Sending a genial glow through your chilled sys- tenn, 1t will start your blood a-coursing through your veins, put new life and vigor into you, and make you feel all together like new man. The effect Of Pe-ru-na in this respect is wonderful, and is manifested by no other medicine. As q Stomach Medicine and Tonic it has no equal. and it needs only to be tried to prove it's efficiency.

As might have been expected at the beginning the organization of the Farmers Alliance in this county has brought out considerable discussion bearing upon the question. Many endorse the movement, while not a few, good farmers, too, stand aloof prerering to watch the order for a while rather than commit themselves to It hastily and perhaps regret the action afterwards. Such spectator IS Farmer Fogy," whose communi- cation giving his views upon the subject is published elsewhere in this issue. The necessity of bet ter understanding, or organisation, among the tillers of the soil is con- ceded by every one who has gwen the question q moments thought. How best to organize and conduct an association of this kind in order to reach the best results, is the problem confronting our farmer friends, and is one which should commend 1t self to the large body of farmers to whom is entrusted the responsibility of de veloping the agricultural resources of the country. The constitution of the Farmers Alliance presents an excellent foundation for such organ. ization, and, doubtless, if strictly ad
 hered to in spirit and letter, would result in much practical good. To steer clear of the rocks and reefs which wrecked the Grange and all other societies of like character or ganized siege, should be the care and determined effort of the promoters of the Alliance. Without this the inev- ltable result is easily foreshawed un. aided by prophetic ken.

REPUBLICANS are highly elated over the apparent favorable prospect of the Blair educational bill becom- Ing law during the present session of congress. We believe, and trust, they will be disappointed, for it will be an unfortunate day for tue country when it's pulic schools are put under even remote partizan control of the general government. This vast sum of money should be left in the pock cts of the people, as it would be un der fair revision ofthe tariff duties to be voted by them for school pur- poses if they like, and disbursed by officials of their own selection. This would be the more equitable way, the other would be uns satisfactory, unfair and unconstitutional.

1 his All-seeing Eye, neither hid nor screened by anything, and admits oi no secrets. The writer Eereof advocates and would strongly urge the open organ ization Of Township Farmers Clubs to meet monthly and discuss every thing that would promote our inter ests and welfare; and also organize township and county fairs or exhlbi tions to promote rivalry and best ef- forts.
 But look with dlsfavo- on the SC. cret farmers organizations, and view them as likely to produce discord n the end. Now, they are sweet like honey, but, in the end, they will bite Hike serpent, and the sting of death is in them.
 Assuming an antagonism between labor and capital which does not ex- ist, is pernicious, and all trades nn- ions, such IS Knights of Labor, Tel egraphers, Locomotive Brotberhoods Typographical Unions and other des- potic industrial organizations only serve to build up wall between em ployer and employee. In the north where these organizations are most numerous, their hurtful results gre more apparent. The ma2g sGrikes there are proof of this. Besides all the suffering, they cause many wor- thy and aspiring young men to de pend more on trades unions carrying them through and securing their pro motion than their own individual merit and effort This is wrong, but will come here, and our boys will learn to expect some great help from somewhere instead of relying on their own industry and perseyer- ance.
 Itis probable that farming is view ed with less favor than any profes sion, and yet it is the best Of all for a young man. Itteaches him to rely on his own efforts and labor with forethought and care, and he who does his work thoroughly and well, and is useful to himself, the world, and hls family, is grand success, and is worth a ten-acre field full or spider legged dudes, though the fickle goddess of Fortune forever fails to smile on him.
 Peaceful and contented is our lot, Mr. Editor; far from tbe maddening crowd of wealth and place seekers and we tone horse" farmers in our liGtle homes, "where there is one to love and one to love us." have hours of peace, ease and contentment un- known to the grasping hands that want the earth. With Charity" for our motto, we take this for our creed:
 "A little farm well titled,
 A little barn well filled,
 And little wife we'll willed."
 With such creed we can live down all the put and call jobs, corn CTS, combines, trusts, tariffs and mos nopolies of this earth.
