With the Assistance of Pug Dog and
a Baby They Make a Scene.
From the Philadelphia Tin,ea
An exciting but amusing episode took
place last evening In a Market street car.
AT the corner of Tenth street dudish
young man accompanied by young lady
with pug dog entered the car
and filed up all that was left OF
its seating capacity. AT the corner of
Thirteenth street a colored woman with a
child in her arms got aboard. After stand
ing for about one square staring the dude in
the face with the expectation that he would
remove the dog and let her sit down, she
took hold of the animal by the ear and
pulled it off the seat and Topped herself
down in its place, at the time using some
words which were not very complimentary
TO the young man and his companion.
The dude turned around aud gave her a
push, saying: How dare you use the poor
doggy that way.n The colored woman
raised her hand and gave him slap on the
side of the face, sending his hat over In the
corner Of the car. The dude jumped up,
shook bis cane in the air aud called to the
conductor to stop the car until he got DO
hcemen and have his assailant arrested. The
woman continued TO scold, the child started
to cry, the pug began TO bark and the young
lady begged Charlie to sit down and not
disgrace himself. while the other passengers
laughed and olapped their hands.
The conductor, In rich Irish brogue, ex-
claimed:
"If yez don't be quiet aud sit down I'll
put the whole crowd Of yez out, nagers and
dogs and all"
The dude asked the conductor to stop the
car, and got Off, saying, as he made his exit,
that he would have the conductor dis
charged for the disgrace he had suffered in
the car.

not, at any rate. in Europe. The contrast
between the old unaltered things, and our
own altered selves. though never exactly

authoritative front, stands ashamed before
the ghost of its own youth. Yet our youth
has nothing to be proud Of. What foolish
things we didl and it seems unjust that

THEIR LOVE FOR THE NEGRO
INCREASING.

A ship laden with 100000 worth
of New England rum left Boston
last week for the usual destination
for such cargoes-the Dark Conti-
nent. From July 1, 1890, to the
corresponding date in 1881, the ex-
ports of rum from Boston to ports
in Africa were 1,O18,SS9 gallons,
valued at 81, 223,591. During the
past year this trade has almost
doubled in quantity and value. The
number of gallons exported in the
twelve months ending July l, 1890
was 54S, 1856, as against 1,O19,591
the year just ended, and the value
was only $656,216 as against ST.

They first sold their slaves to

TARIFF, THE QUESTION.

Governor Boies, of Iowa, in his
letter ACCEPTING the democratic
denomination to the gurbernato-
rial office, says that the posi-
ton taken on tariff reform in the
democratic platform sis not only
in accord with the natural rights
OF men, but it is especially so
with the best interests of the peo-
pie of our State. The great in
dustry of Iowa is, and must con-
tinue to be, agriculture, upon the
successful prosecution of which
all the business in the State is
largely dependent. In no posi-
bic manner can this industry be
benefited by our present tariff
laws. For many years our peo-
pie have been unnecessarily sub
jected to a system of legalized ex-
tortion that has restricted our
market and diminished the price
of almost everything we sell, and
increased the cost of very much
that we buy. We have submit
ted tothis wrong until, in seasons
of ordinary plenty, the products
of the soil, although bountiful
beyond any other country of the
globe, are by reason of their de-
pressed market value insufficient
to compensate the farmer for his
labor in producing them. With
united voice the great West is
now laundering in the ears of
those who have preyed unpon
her resources SO long it's demand
for relief in this struggle for the
emancipation of a class to which
most OF our people belong"

STRANGE DhMOGtsAUY,

DR.. j. William Stokes, Pi'esi-
de,t of the Sodth Carolina Far
err Alliance and editor of it's or
gan, the Cotton Plant, displayed
IL curious ignorance of the princi-
pies of the Democratic party in
his address at the meeting of the
State Alliance at Spartanburg
the other day. at is strange"
he said, that the Democratic par
ty, which was benefited most in
the last election by the education
al forces of the Alliance, and has
the least to lose by its education,
should be the most extreme in it's
antagonism to the Alliance.
DR.. Stokes once professed to be
Democrat. If he has changed
until he opposes measures which
invoke the interference and assis-
lance of the Government in the
business of it's citizens, there is
still no reason why he should be
surprised that the Democratic
party stands for what it has
always stood for, the largest
amount of individualism and the
least of paternalism. Many DEM
ocrats in the Southern States
have weakly yielded to the ALI
ance madness for the indefensible
and rank natiOnaliSm of the Sub
Treasury and land loan plans,
but the Democratic party hasnot
yielded nor will it yield. If it
should yield, it would cease to be
the Democratic party. Chas. A
Dana, usually mugwump and
an independent crank, speaks
wisely when he says: GAS long
as the Democratic party main
tains its name and it's traditions,
it must oppose paternalism: and
there are no forms Ofpaternalism
more selfish and siller than those
disclosed i'll this pet scheme of the
Farmers Alliance"

NORTH CAROLINA GOLD.

1t is reported by parties from Mont
gomery county that another rich
gold-fnd has been made close to the
Uwharrie river in that county which
will perhaps surpass the Sanders find.
The facts as learned are these:
1t was discovered that two of the
natives had about four quarts OF
gold nuggets, and it was also discov-
cred about the same time that they
were in the habit of spending their
nights away from home.
They were watched, and the fact
was revealed that they had discover
ed and were working a very rich wien
on the property bought recently by
Senator Spooner, of Wisconsin, and
associate.
A telegram has been sent to Spoon
er and the work has been stopped.
A number of rich fields have been
made in this the richest mining Sec
ton east of Rocky.

The Campaign of 1902.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-There is
talk among leading Democrats here
in favor of having late National
Convention next year. It is custo-
mary for the party in power to hold
its Convention first, and next year
will be no exception to the rule, as
the Republican Convention will,
without doubt, be called for May.
1t is the belief of many Democrats
that there is no need for calling the
Democratic Convention until the
middle of July, which will give
six or eight weeks in which to note
the enemy's plan of campaign and
cheeknate accordingly.

He said more than this. he said:

centrate the business of the peo-

This country is just a little too
big to allow one man to run it,
and the sooner the people come
to that conclusion the better.
No one has any war to make
upon the farmer. The Demo-
