A STATEMENT FOR THE ROBE.
SONIAN.

LUMBERTON, n, c., Sept. 10, 1891
Mr.. EDITOR:-Ln reply to an article
in your columns of September 18th,
headed How is this 2 i'll which you
seem to want information in regard to
the attitude of the editor of the Robe
SOnian TO the Farmers Alliance, we
beg leave to offer to you and your read
ers the following explanation. And in
the first place will state that the para
graph which you quote and did not ap-
pear as an editorial, as you state, but
under the head of staff correspond
ence."
The RO6esOnjUn was adopted by the
Robson County Farmers Alliance as
the organ of said County Alliance soon
after our County Alliance was organ
lied, and that, too, without any assur-
ance that the policy of the paper would
be changed in the least, but with an
express declarati from the editor that
it would not be dictated to or changed
on account of being adopted as such
organ. The policy of the paper is and
hos been that of a Democratic county
newspaper and is divided into several
departments, as any one may see by
reference to a single copy Of the paper.
These departments are kept up or con
Quoted by men of high standing, en-
ployed by the editor-i in chief. who is
also sole proprietor, and the readers of
the RObeSOnidn have often been re-
minded by the editor, through it's col
umns that he 1UiU not be held resDOn-
SibIe fOrtbe UielCS Of his correspondents.
There have been several attempts
made to discontinue the paper as an
Alliance organ, but in every instance
have been voted down by large ma
jOrities, and we think this a pretty
strong endorsement.
Now the above is not written for the
purpose of either endorsing or antag-
Onizing the sentiment of your quota
ton, but for the purpose Of giving you
the truth.
We might say further that the de-
partment from which you quote staff
correspondence is conducted by a
member of the Alliance, and there is
an Alliance department conducted bv
a member Of the Alliance, and the
editor himself BRO. McDiarmid) is a
member of the Alliance, and he always
has the courtesy to publish anything
of an official nature from any of the
Sub-Alliances or the County Alliance
no matter how crowded the columns
of the paper, and we are not aware of
the editor himself having taken sides
against any of the Alliance demands or
impugning the motives of any of its
friends. y, Z. TOWNSEND,

The holding of the Worlds Fair in q city
scarcely fifty years old will be a remarkable
event, but whether it will really benefit this
nation as much as the discovery of the Restora-
tive Nervine by DR.. Franklin Miles is doubtful.
This is just what the American people need to
cure their excessive nervousness, dyspepsia head
ache, dizziness, sleeplessness, neuralgia, nervous
debility, duIlness, confusion of mind, etc. 1t

EXPERIMENT STATIONS AT THE
WORLDS FAIR.
Practical Illustrations Being Prepared
for the Columbian Exposition.

Practical Illustrations Being Prepared
for the Columbian Exposition.
The exhibit of the agricultural expert
ment stations of the United States
promises to be not one of the least in
teresting features of the Chicago Elk
position. One portion of the proposed
exhibit, which will be likely to attract
general attention, IS an experiment
station IN operation, with it's office,
laboratories, etc, illustrating how the
indoor work of a station is actually
carried on. In another portion of the
exhibit each station will present, by
means of maps, diagrams, pictures,
sets of publications, a full statement of
its location, equipment, lines of work,
etc, so that the visitor can, if he de-
sires, follow out in detail the history
and the work of any particular station.
The main feature, however, will be
a typical exhibit of the work of the
stations as a whole. In this it is not
proposed to make a full showing of the
work of any single station, but to make
a unified exhibit showing the kind of
work done by the stations, the way IN
which they do it, and some of the more
important results which they have
reached. The preparation of the ex
hibit is in the hands of a committee Of
the Association of American Agricul-
tural Colleges and Experiment Stations
cooperating with the United States
Department of Agriculture, Assistant
Secretary Willis, of the Department,
has taken a deep interest in the matter
and has promised substantial aid on
the part of the Department to the
stations in making the exhibit.
AT a meeting of the committee held
recently in Chicago, the preparation Of
the different departments of the exhibit
was assigned to the following gentle
men:
Experiment Station in Operation
Director of the Office of Experiment
Stations.
The Exhibits of the Individual Sta
tions-H. P. Armsby, Penn.
Soils-E. w. Hilgard, California.
Manuring-C. E. ThOrne, Ohio.
Crops-C. S. Plumb, Indiana.
Horticulture-E. A. PopenOe, Kan.
Botany-S. NJ. Tracy, Miss.
Animal Nutrition-W. H. Jordan,
Maine.
Feeding Stuffs-W. A, Henry, Wis
cOnsin.
Dairying-W. w. Cooke, Vermont.
Veterinary Science-Paul Paquin,
Missouri.
Entomology-S. A. Forbes Ill.
This list of departments will give
some idea of the scope of the exhibit
and the variety of subjects covered by
the work of the stations. The commit
tee has received promises of co-opera-
ton from practically all the stations
and the success of the undertaking
seems to be we'll assured.

the ladies of their respective families.
c.. II. Hendershott, a well-known
New York merchant, was visitor at
the fair last night. He is visiting few
days with relatives here previous to 60
ing ON to Frisco.
Henry L. Smith of Boise City, large
cattle owner there, who is here day or
two ON business, took time to visit the
citrus fair last night, and says that it is
far finer than he had any idea was pos
sible. He purchased quantity OF pho
tographs to take home with him and
was evidently much impressed.
A group of eastern people were heard
discussing with some Pasadenians the
possibility of reproducing at the worlds
fair a portion of the exhibit at the
pavilion. A Pasadena man closed the
discussion by declaring that California
would do better than that at Chicago.
The eastern people silently looked
around at the great show, and it was
evident that their imaginations failed to
grasp the possibility Of improving upon
the scene before them.
Several members OF the Frohman
company visited the fair yesterday as
the guests of Mr.. and Mrs. j. Wallace
F. Diss, of Redlands.
There are navel oranges weighing y
pounds at the Boyle. Heights exhibit,

the citrus exhibits yesterday morning.
DIR. and Mrs j. G. Miller, of Pasa-
dena, came in yesterday and visited the
fair.
Mrs. George Steckel and Miss Nc
Creary were taking Kodak views in the
pavilion yesterday morning.
Copies of the citrus fair edition OF the
Chamber of Commerce Bulletin can be
had free at the pavilion at the rooms of
the chamber of commerce.
Postmaster Green says the fair is the
grandest development thus far of citrus
products in the United States. He
thinks the designs and decorations
should be photographed and the entire
exhibition reproduced in Chicago. ''It
would be the foremost exhibition of
Southern California" said Mr.. Green.
A Pomona gentleman expressed the
opinion OF the general public yesterday
when he said: ''The mosque erected by
Duarte is the true type of architecture,
correct in all its minor details, an exact
copy Of the mosque after which it is
modelled, and more than any other de-
sign in the exhibition, is in line with
the general citrus display"

G. A. SWAN: Hoods is the most popular sarsa-
parilla Of the day.
THIRTY OTHER druggists speak similarly.
This popularity at home, where Hoods Sarsa-

many years, could not continue if the medicine
did not possess merit And these facts should
certainly convince people in other sections Of
