The Truth About It.

Certain papers away from Winston
have found q slim foundation for.
much comment and several erroneous
statements in the fact that money
has been scarce in Winston for sever
al weeks and that the tobacco men
bought cautiously AID at low prices
These papers have sought to convey
the impression that the low prices
and the scarcity of money were re-
stricted to Winston alone.
Such is not the truth. The money
panic in New York affected every
large town. in the United States.
Money was not only hard to get in
Winston, but it was harder to get in
every other tobacco town in North
Carolina and prices on ether markets
declined far more than they did here.
This is impartial Winston had, if
we are correctly informed, last week
and the week before nearly twice as
much money in her banks as the
next largest tobacco market in the
State and more than twice as much
as any one Of the other tobacco
towns ~ < s44
Happily, the tightness of the money
market all over the country is relax
ing and business is fast regaining its
normal conditions. In Winston, the
breaks are good sized this week and
prices are rising. Our tobacco men
have all the money they need and are
buying any stock they want at prices
which are higher than those ruling on
any other market in North Carolina.

1t Dem ands Loans for the Farm eH
ON Their Lands.

1t Dem 0nds Loans for the Farm eF0
ON Their Lands.
The Farmers Alliance Convention
in session at Ocala, Florida, has
adopted the following platform:
1. We demand the abolition of
national banks; we demand that the
government shall establish subtreas-
uries or repositories in the several
states, which shall loan money di-
rect to the people at low rate of in
terest, not to exceed per cent per
annum, on non-perishable farm pro-
ducts, and also upon real estate,
with the proper limitation upon the
quantity of land and the amount of
money; we demand that the amount
of circulating medium be speedily
increased to not less than $50 per
capita.
2. We demand that congress shall
pass such laws as shall effectually
prevent dealing in futures on all ag-
ricultural and mechanical produc-
tions, preserving a stringent system
of procedure in trials, such as shall
secure the prompt convection and
imposition of such penalties as 81 all
secure the most perfect compliance
with law.
3. We condemn the Silver bill re-
Gently passed by Congress, and de
mand in lieu thereof the free and
unlimited coinage of silver.
4. We demand the passage of laws
prohibiting alien ownership of land,
and that Congress take prompt ac-
ton to devise some plan to obtain all
lands now owned by aliens and for
eign syndicates, and that all lands
now held by railroads and other cor
porations in excess of such as is &C
tually used and needed by them be
reclaimed by the Government and
held for actual settlers only.
5. Believing in the doctrine of
equal rights to all, and special priv
ileges to none, we demand that our
national legislation shall be SO franz
ed in the future as not. to build up
one industry at the expense of an
other, and we further demand a re-
moval of the existing heavy tariff
tax from the necessaries of life that
the poor of our land must have.
We further demand a just and
equitable system of graduated tax on
incomes. We believe that the money
of the country should be kept as
much as possible in the hands of the
people, and hence we demand that
all nations and State revenues shall
be limited to the necessary expenses
of the Government economically and
honestly administered.
6th-We demand the most rigid,
honest, and just State and national
government control and supervision
of the means of public communica-
ton and transportation, and if this
control and supervision does not re-
move the abuses now existing, we
demand Government ownership of
such means of communication and
transportation"

incorrect: Class, who says he is from
Chatham county, claims to have been
robbed near town Friday night of
last week (at a negro house not far
from tie depot, some say. while we
hear from others that it occurred
elsewhere) by some three or four par
ties of from-well, say from $50 to
$125, and Saturday morning after
this occurrence Class identified Bob
Childress, Jr., Mart Haynes and two
other men as the parties who robbed
him, and secured their arrest. They
We're locked up. After the arrest two
of the men were released for want of
evidence, we suppose. Ahearing was
had on Wednesday morning and
Childress and Haynes gave bonds for
their appearance on 3rd of February
next.
