Great care must be taken
when the lambs are taken away
from the ewes a little later on
in the season, that the eve does
not have the milk fever and 90
down on yourhands. The ewes
should be taken off the pasture
and a little dry feed given.
They will not eat it very well,
but that is their favor, until the
flow of milk is stopped.
Have you ever bought a pamp-
cred sheep: If you have, how
did it do? Didn't do so well:
Yes that is what we thought.
Don't pamper the sheep unless
it can be kept up, else they will
go all to pieces when the care is
withheld. No one will deny
that every breeder has a right
to keep his sheep we'll whether
he proposes TO sell or not. Good
keeping may not be called PAM
pering, and it may be we'll to be
ableto tell where good keep ends
and pampering begins Give
the sheep good keep, but avoid
pampering.
The last report of the govern.
ment shows remarkable light
losses of sheep the year just
past. Mortality from all causes
during the past year is returned
at 4 per cent, the smallest with
one exception ever shown The
causes for these losses are foot
rot, fluke, grub in the head, pas
per skin, scab, and other local
disorders. In many sections
dogs are responsible for the
death of more sheep than all
other causes. The reports show
whole fiocks Of valuable ami
mails wiped out of existence,
and there seems to be a little

Admitting that the rainmak-
ing experiments conducted by
the government in Texas are a
success, the question of expense
remains to be considered.
Ii is possible to do many
things that are not profitable,
and forcing rain by artificial
means may be one Of them.
Modern inventive genius with
unlimited capital at its COM
mand, can do almost anything,
but we are dominated by econo-
mic ideas, and nobody is going
to spend 50 when the return
will be only half that sum.
Will il Pay? The answer to
this question will settle the fate
of the whole business. The good
people who are protesting
against the new method as an
interference with the ways of
providence need not be alarmed
at present. Ascientific curiosi-
ty is one thing and an available,
everyday device is quite anoth-
er thing. The probability is
that the world will rock along
in the old-fashioned way taking
the rain and the sunshine in the
ordinary course of nature. At

A WORD or WARNING.

l would call attention of those
men who are running after an
ignisfatuns TO the deeds and mis-
deeds of the Republican party.
Ever since 1860 that party has
been responsible primarily for
every piece Of dGvilmcnt that
has been perpetrated in the
United States. Applause. How
can / prove it: Up TO 1874 they
controlled the House, the Sem
ate and the President. In that
year the Democrats carried the
House, but the other fellows
held the Senate and President.
They stole the Presidency in
1876, but a lie we'll stuck to is
as good as the truth, and a de
facto President when ne holds
the fort. The Republican held
the fort and they were respon-
sible for all the acts Of the Gov.
ernment. Once we had the
House and Senate, but the Re-
publican President had the veto
power.
Last year the Republicans
had the House. Senate and Pre-
sident, and look ut what they
wanted to do. They tried 70
reconstruct us-to make the
pyramid stand on its apex and
give US back again the negro as
a ruler.
And vet some Democrats talk
about jeopardizing unity. As |
asserted. the Democratic party
since 1860 had no opportunity
TO do anything for the relief Of
the people. They have only
been able to hang on the back
Of the Radical party and keep il
from doing more devilment. Is
there any reason why any Dem.
ocrat should grow weary with
this long struggle, and especi-
ally now when victory is about
70 perch on our banners. and

GOV. TILLMAN ON THE

From a Sp .ccll at Red Springs.

Reported for Charleston News
and Courier; Gov. Tillman said:
We farmers of the South and
West know that we are growing
in power day by day, and we
have sworn by the eternal God
that demands shall be grant
ed by the robbers. Applause
and cheers.
What strange scenes have we
witnessed of late! The farmers
have organized, driven to it by
stern necessity. They did not
care about organization when
they were prosperous. Now the
Alliance between the South and
West has some promise Of reali-
zation. In Kansas and other
northwestern States Bleeding
Kansas" the blackest OF black
Republican States-which help
ed to make us in South Carolina,
at least, subseryient to the
black horde that once dominated
our State, the farmers with pow
erty staring them in the face
and the sheriff behind them with
their mortgages unpaid, have
been driven to adopt Democrat
ic principles in spite of them
selves. Applause. They
haven't the manliness TO come
out and say we have been
wrong and You were right. In.
stead of joining the Democratic
party outright, they want TO or.
ganize a Third party. ~
They won't come right square
into the Democratic party, al-
though ! admit it is hard for a
fellow who has been voting one
way for twenty-five years to
confess he was wrong: but we
don't care how they help us SO
long as they do help us. Laugh
ter and Applause. If they want
to vote for Democratic princi-
pies in the Third party, in Gods
name let US send them joyfuly
greetings; for if we can divide
those fellows up there We'll
have a showing then, won't We,
boy? [Applause. But l am

idea has taken too strongly

there is too much of it espeei-
ally in North Carolina. | may
be mistaken, but ] have got the
impression that there is an un-
der current that may carry off

/ would like to talk about this
to men who have always been
Democrats in mind, heart, soul
and body, where Democracy is
bred in their very bones. You
often hear it said: eff the Dem
ocratic party don't give ue what
we want we don't care
what we do" Now that is a
bad attitude to assume towards
anybody or party. You can't
bulldoze the Amegican people,
