In the tariff debate this week Mr..
Vorhees made some striking hits He
plainly showed the farmers one of the
great causes of present hard times
Instead of spending SO much time and
temper on the sub-treasury bill, would
It not be wise in the Alliance to make
its strongest fight along the line Of
tariff reform?
Mr.. VOORHEES, spoke Of the manifi
cont diamond presented by Andrew
Carnegie to Stanley's bride. The
farmers of the United States, he said,
had paid for that diamond ten thou
sand times over in the last twenty
years by paying an average duty of
over thirty eight per cent. on every
article of iron and steel that they used,
and by paying increased rates of rail
road freight made necessary by the
high duties Oh steel and iron rails and
rolling stock. For the farmer, at
last, paid for all. If the pending bill
became law they would have an in
crease of duty to pay in iron and steel
from So "a per cent to 81. 75 per
cent.

Raleigh is disturbed about her EN-
sus. She is not. satisfied when the
census man tells her that her poupula-
ton is about $4,000 What does this
cry which comes up from all quarters
mean? Is is that the census enumera
tors are careless and incompetent, or
is 1t an organized scheme Of the Re-
pulican party to keep down our repre-
sentation in Congress?
WHY not adjourn Congress? The
Treasury is looted and deficit of
s1OO,O0O,O0O piled upon the taxpay-
ers, and there's nothing more to grab
unless tho deficit is to be more increas
ed. Isn't s1OO,OOO,OOO enough to

Senator Zcb Vance is as everybody

Worcester Defeats Wilmington Easily
for the Championship.
The Wilmington Base Call Club cele-
brated the opening of the championship
season on Saturday by being defeated by
this Worcester team. The game was seen
by 800 people, who were elated at the
good beginning sf the home club, and
chagrined at the poor showing later.
The coldness Of the weather and the high
wind made sitting still uncomfortable.
The high wind Affected the course of
flies and made good Judgment necessary.
The home team made too many errors,
and the steadiest players are charged
with them. The batting was fair, but
they failed to bunch their hits and in
the last three innings not man got to
first. The visitors outplRyed Wilming-
ton everywhere; they knocked Lawson
out of the box in the fourth inning and
6elded with only one error.
The game began favorably for the
home team, Hasney and Sullivan getting
to first on balls. Hasney stole second
and reached third on Bradley's error,
which was the only error made by the
visitors. Sullivan stole second and both
men scored on a single BY Mclaughlin.
The latter scored on a sacrifice hit by
Kienzls For the visitors, Bradley went
as far as third, just as Hasney did, and
scored while Campion was being put out.
Both pitchers gave three bases on balls
in the FIRST two innings. Stafford steadisd
down then, while Lawson, Of whom not
hit had yet been made. weakened. In
the third inning two hits were made, re-
sultinR in three runs. In the fourth
inning, the Worcesterites lighted out
Lawson and made six hits. one of which
was = home run. and another 8
three bagger. Eight runs were made in
this inning. Lawson's stock fell away
below par, and his supposed great
twirlihg was not thought Of. Smith wa
put in the box, and although many
doubted the advissbility of this move, h'
surprised them by pitching good ball
Only three runs were made while he wal
in the box. Wilson and Campion mad,
long hits into left and right fields
respectively, the longest hits that hav,
been made on the grounds. Mclaughlin
played we'll at second base, and Speids
covered first without an error. Thl
