Tile WORLDS FAIR
Interview With Nj. EIias Carr. Pres.
of State Alliance


The question row is: VIII tue Lesis!a-
ture make Al approx riation TO have the
products and minerals of North Carolina
properly displayed 1T the Worlds Fair
IN Chicago? I? The CHRoSIcLE believes
that 1t is highly important that it should
be done and We trust that the Legisla-
ture viii find means to give the State the
biggest advertisement ana boom 1t has
had since Sir Walter Raleigh landed on
our coast some three or four hundred
years ago.
Mr. ELIAS CARR, President of the
State Alliance, was in Raleigh yesterday,
and the CHRONICLE interviewed him
upon the proposed appropriation to give
North Carolina an attractive place at the
Worlds Fair. Mr. CARR IS earnestly
and heartily in favor of making he apprc-
prlatlon. He says that it is not 50 much
question of "Can We afford it? as can
We tff)rd not 10 do it.' He believes
that the opportunity for the State is very
great, and that North Carolina ought
to present minerals and products
on exhibition in solid and substantial
way. He believes that the South needs
this more than any other section, and
North Carolina more than any other
State. Why! In Western Virginia, in
eight years $l35 900, 600 of foreign cash
has been inv, s.ed The ate tax upon this
investment would be sufficient to defray
the expenses Of the state government.
In Middleboro, Ky, one town So
O00, 900 Of foreign capital has been IL
vested in the last few years. Capital
! has poured into most other States. North
Garolina mus get its share.
Again, continues Mr.. CARR, this will
be grand exhibit. Our young people
will visit il. The resources Of all other
sections will be displayed attractively,
and young people will locate where the
best advantages are presented. We
must keep our own boys at home and
also attract the boys from other sectious
We want M of brains, and muscle, or
money,or all, 10 cDme TO Ncrou Cirolina
Unless We show tieln Waat We have
they Will never come.
Again, argues Mr. CARR the mana
gers of the Exposition for the first tinIo
in the history If Inc World, have giver,
agricultural products the tiist place. In
Paris, agriculture ranked THIRD IN the
rank Of exhibits. At Chicago it stands
first. AS a guarantee Of gooi faith the
managers have appointed Col EDMUND
SON, a noted farmer and stock raiser ol
Kentucky, al the head oi the Agricultu
, raj Department, and he and his asso
, ciates will se4 that the products of lii,
: soil are KEEP, in the front rank
} North Carolina IS largely an agriculture
) State Oar lands are fertile and we hav,
thousands or acres that ought to be il

knew what we had ucre ami the fertilit
of our soil, the tiQa Of immigration
would turn to North Carolina aud W
would witness new era. Mr. CARR al
luded'alsO TO the the action Of the Nation
al Alliance at Ocela Fla, of which "
will write to morrow. The CHRONICL
agrees fully with Mr. CARR that Nortl
Carolina must be repre- euted as tn
great Fair in Chicago.

Mr.. Bryan Of Wayne, said after consid-

SATURDAY, JAN. 8, 1891,

An ordinary citizen who picks up
his daily paper, and sits down in his
arm chair to inform himself with the
current news nowaday is liable to be
somewhat ast0nished.
The most conspicuous portion of his
paper contains three orfour columns
of European news. The question OF
Irish Home Rule, and the speeches of
the advocates on the different sides of
the question are inserted. After read
ing, if he is bold enough to do SO,
these columns discussing subjects of
which he knows little and cares less,
he thinks that he will turn over and
find something about the United States
Congress and what it is doing. With
patience and perseverance he will dis
cover in some obscure column a half
column, or may be an entire column
concerning the proceedings Of the Con-
gress, and his search may also be re-
warded with q letter of ten or a dozen
lines from u correspondent in Wash
ington giving his views of what may he
done.
All this is very nice to the "ordinary
citizen" He knows that one of the
most important discussions is going on
in the senate; he knows that u band Of
bold conspirators are using all the pow
er of tyranny to enact a law that will
take away the right of the states to
elect members of Congress, and place
the whole machinery of election in the
hands Of men, rotten, corrupt, who
care no more for the just privileges
guaranteed by the Fathers of the Re
public than the cat cares for the
mouse with which it is playing. He
would like to lead some of the argu-
ments and speeches made in the dis
cussion III which every sensible man
feels Il deep and personal interest, bat
those speeches are conspicuously all
sent. He has four or five columns of
European news, and the question
whether Parnell, who has boldly vio-
lated every test of hospitality, and
who tramples upon the most sacred of
family ties without conjunction, shall
be the leader of the Irish Home Rulers
is fully discussed.
What does it concern the s'ordinary
citizen who leads the Irish in their
troubles?
Is that question of more Importance
to the people of the United States than
that of the passage of the Force bill
which isdesigned to deprive the Amer
lean people of tie very same rights
or which the Irish are contending

Senator Vance, of North Carolina
has said that he will vote for the Sub
Treasury scheme of the Farmers ALI
ance if SO instructed by the legislature
of his state.
Senator Vance refused to approve
the scheme, but will obey :he voice of
the people. This is n position that
the leading Republican senators do
not occupy. The expression of the
Will of their constituents has but little
or no attention from them.
Senator Vance stands as did senators
fifty Years ago. The right Of instruc-
ton by the legislatures of the State
which they represented was acknow-
LEGGED by all parties.
The records of the senate will show
that upon numerous occasions, senators
openly spoke on one side of a measure,
whilst they voted on the other, in ODE
dience to the instructions sem by the
legislatures of their respective states.
They voted in direct opposition to
their openly expressed views, because
their constituents demanded it. There
are other instances where senators re-
signed their office rather than vote
against their ideas of what was right
and proper.
This right of instruction senator
Vance admits and obeys and he merits
honor for it.

Death Of Joaeph I. jay.

Joseph Isaac Jay, former citizen OF
Navarro, Stark county, departed this life
on the Oath ult, at Hobart, Indiana, in the
87rh.year of his oge, having been born in
Schoharie county, New York, May 2o,1805.
His only surviving descendant, of five
offsprings, Captain james M. Jay of New
York city, formerly of Canton, was In at
tendance at the funeral.
Having lost both parents when quite
young an uncle bound him out when six
years old to an old Holland farmer, thus
separating him from two sisters Of whom
he never afterwards heard. He Witnessed
the celebration at the opening of the Erie
canal in 1926 and on that occasion, as he
loved TO tell, first heard q band of music,
the instrumc nts being clarinets, hautboys
and bassoons. He came to Ohio when a
young man, stopping a while at Kirkland,
where the Mormon temple was then being
built, soon drifting to Talmadge, and
there was married to Lucia Jeannette
Brousau. He lived Mt CuyahoRa Falls,
Canal Dover, Sandyville and Magnolia,
being the teacher of the Whig band In
40-4l, at the last named place. After
this he located at Navarro, residing there
till 1852 when he removed TO Indiana. He
lost his wife September 4, 1890, thus sur
viving his aged companion only little
over year. Thus pass away the genera

To- che deceased and we may say of this
worthy man: "Peace to his ashes"
