AFTER VANCE'S SCALP.
The North Carolina Senator Warned by
Farmers of His State.

Raleigh IN. c. dispatch: A few days
ago, in an open letter TO Elias Carr,
president Of the North Carolina Farm
ers' alliance, Senator Vance said he
should not support the sub-treasury bill.
The official organ of the alliance to-day
in leading editorial attacks Vance. 1t
says:
Senator Vance may have underesti-
mated the strength of the alliance.
Men living right here in the State have
done this. He may think he may ig-
more its demands, but he will find it
contains more than one-third OF the
backbone Of the State. Senator Vance
is brainy man, but we contend that the
thousands of alliance men in North
Carolina know thing or two. He
would have MS believe that he knows
more than the bundred of intelligent
farmers from twenty-three States who
met i'm St. Louis last December.
The farmers Of North Carolina
pay Senator Vance. 1t is his business
TO work for them. Whether the meas
ureS are constitutional or not he should
do IL, and if the bill is not in proper
shape he should have gone 10 work and
put it in shape. II he is not willing to
serve the people we want to know It,
We can not afford to pay men and then
allow them to put up their brains
against the entire State. The moral OF
1t all is tn 5: We must go back 10 the
old way of electing farmers TO Congress
and the United States Senate. 1t be-
comes more and more apparent that

BLAINE CRITICISES REED.
Tho Secretary of state on the Quorum
Question.

QueSt1On.
Washington dispatch The criticism
OF Speaker Reed by "a leading Repub-
lican" in the current number of the
North American Review is by common
consent credited to Secretary Blaine.
When the announcement was made that
such an article was TO appear il was
thought that either Senator Edmunds or
Senator Ingalls, might be the anthor, as
both have shaken their heads doubt
ingly over some OF Mr.. Reeds posi-
tions. But the internal evidence
is all against either Of them, and
the gossip among Senators is that
~the eX-M. c." to whom the article is
Attributed, cannot be one of their num-
Der because they are not "Exes." Be-
sides some of them think that the senti-
ments in the article are similar to the
views Mr.. Blaine has uttered I'm private
talk. 1t ia pointed out that only an ex-
Speaker could show the familiarity
with the House procedure that is shown
by the writer. Mr. Blaine when Speaker
held that a quorum could not be
counted. His favorite expression was:
''You may lead a horse to water, but
you can't make him drink" Mr.. Reed
at one period of his parliamentary
career took the same ground and op-
posed an amendment to the rules pro-
posed by Randolph Tucker TO enable
the Speaker to declare q quorum, but
he afterwards changed his views
