A Sound and Safe Platform.

The platform adopted by
the democratic State cOnven-
tion, in this city last year,
contains the essential princi-
pies of the Alliance, and such
as are satisfactory to the
members of the Democratic
party who do not belong to
the Alliance. 1t was the re-
suit of a calm, dispassionate
consultation between the
representatives of these two
elements of democracy, and
was agreed upon as just to
both, and conservative of
the best interest OF the State.
This platform is now the
pla torn of the whole demo-
cratic party OF North Caro-
lima. 1t is the latest official
announcement Of the politi-
cal principles the democratic
party processes, and which
it is pledged to advance. The
writer accepts it as his spoliti-
cal chart. because it empod-
ies the principles which the
farmers and other business
men Of the State thought
We're sound and safe for the
basis of our laws, and for
guidance in the administra-
tion OF the government. Let
us stand upon this platform,
and prove to other States
that North Carolinians are
governed by principles, and
are not mere waits upon the
political sea.-NoIth Carroll

there at which he was at
work, the roof and weather
boarding having been com
pleted, was completely wreck

badly hurt.
The other was Mr.. A. A.
Parks new house which was
lifted from it's base and car

Polk Against Cleveland The Prospect
ola Third Party.

President T.. L. Polk, of
the National Farmers Ali
ance and Industrial Union,
is in the cityand accorded me
an interview on the attitudeof
the Alliance. He says, that
his organization is strongly
in favor of the free coinage of
silver, and no candidate who
is not in sympathy with the
Alliance on. this question can
hope for it's support next
year. Hence he is opposed
to tile nomination OF Grover
Cleveland for the presidency
by the democrats.
On the course OF the demo-
crartic party in Congress..will
depend largely whether the
Alliance in the South wiIljoin
in the third party movement.
If the d e M ocrats do not
show a decided disposition
to give thefarmers what they
want nothing can keep the
Southern AlIiancemeni in line
with the party.
On this point Colonel Polk
speaks with a good deal of
emphasis. The nomination
OF Mr.. Cleveland on a plat
form either ignoring or trad
ding the money question
will, he is snre, make a third
party a necessity.-Atlanta,
Ga, Dispatch.

Senator Edlnonds. in an in
terview with a Star reporter
at Washington says he thinks
the policy of his party in 49,
80 will continue to be what
it has been. to maintain
the Mckinley tariff and pass
aforce bill at the first opportu-
nifty. He does not think the
Democrats will be carried Il.
way with the free coinage
0ea. As for The Farmers
Alliance movementin protest
against the legislation of re-
cent years, the Senator sees
no just cause for it. "a large
part of it arises" he says
sagely, from intrinsic quail
ties of the human mind" Zone
OF these intrinsic qualities, -
he thinks, is it's liability to
periods o ( Excitement"

1t is a species OF metal rough
weather thathas blown down
a good many republicans fen
ces but there was no real rea-
son for it and it will ultimate
ly subside and leave things

.Jible bad result of the Far
mers' Alliance activity in 49,
50 may be he thinks, thefail-
ure OF any party to elect a
majority of the whole electo-
raj college, in which case the
election of President and Vice
President would fall to the
Democratic House OF Repre-
sentatives. That would be
verybad. no doubt in the
Senator's opinion, put he
suggest no remedy for it.

Ssnthsrn Opposition to the. Third
Party Convention.

Ssnthsrn Opposition to the. Third
Party Convention.
Col. Livingston, of Georgia,
has written a letter very de-
cided in tone, in regard to,
the Alliance convention to be
held in CINCINNATI ON the 10
tn, OF next month. In it he
says that the Southern Ali
ancarnen will not participate
in the convention. and that
McGrath, as President OF the
State Alliance of Kansas, has
no authority to call. it, be-
cause the whole matter was
carefully considered Mt Ocala
last December, and a conven-
ton for the several farmers
and labor organizations was
called for February '92. The
members of theAlliance who
reside principally in the West.
and who want a third party,
appear to favor the move
ment for the Cincinatti ct n
vention, while the Southern
Alliance oppose the third par
ty idea, ao long as redress of
grievances is possible within
the Democratic party, and
are content to wait the ac-
tion of the next Democra tic
House Of Representatives
Many of the members of the
Alliance in the West have been
lifelong Republicans, and
are indisposed to unite with
the Democratic party, which
in the main favors the meas
ures they advocate, because
OF a mere sentiment. Weare
gratified at the position ta-
ken by the Southern Alliance.
1t shows that the latter are
earnest. and will be governed
by principles. believing that
the Democratic cparty will aid
in securing the legislation
desired, and willing to give
that party IL fair trial. The
President OF an organiza tfon
into which so many conflict
ing elements have entered
has a very difficult Office to
perform. He must see that
with a divided counsel the ef-
fectiveness of the organiza-
ton will be greatly neutral
lied; and his,skill vii! be tax
ed to the utmost to keep it's
strength intact in order to
throw it where it will be
most effective. We under
stand such to be the aim of
the National Alliance, and
to reconcile the Southern and
Western wings appear to be
the difficulty. There is lit
tie, if any, apprehension but
that the Democratic party
and the Southern wing of'the
Alliance will act conformity in
the election of a Democratic
President, and ifthe Western
wing will be governed by the
same conservatism as our
southern friends there will
soon be a Democratic Presi-
dent and a Democratic Con-
gress, and then business will
revive and times get better.

doubts the1 dpsirability of

not at all probably that the
democratic House will be
willing to pledge the credit
of this country in order to
raise 100000. 900, to be
spent under the direction. of
a republican machine. When
Mr.. Miller and his associates
came tD Congress to get the
charter for this company the
statement was made over

needed to build the canal
had been pledged by private
parties; now, after having

larged lin the head) majesty

Secretaries Blaineand Foster
have been unable to agree
upcn Behring sea matters

at loggerheads with both At.

Secretary Tracy on tho au-
thority of this Government
to seize upon the open sea

Gently seized at San Diego,

Tracy and Miller that we

Mr.. Blaine has not ADDED
much to his attachment for
Mr.. Harrison since that gen

several reasons. He has used
language, so | am informed
by one of Mr.. Blain.s s friends,
in telegraphing to Mr.. Blaine,
that meant precisely what
the yonug Emperor of Ger

Then, as if to add insult to
injury, can Russell Harrison's

loyal to Mr.. Harrison. Mr..
Blaine finally became SO dis
gusted that he went to New

RECIPRocITY WIN CANApA.

The Empire, Sir John MacdonaId's per-
sonal organ, says concerning reciprocity be-
tween Canada and the United States:
But from the beginning 1t has been understood
that any treaty agreed upon must not invade the
principle OF the national policy and must not in
vOlve any discrimination in duties against Brit
ish goods. Surely within these just and proper
limitations there are multiplicity OF articles IN
some Of which there could be freer interchange
with mutual advantage. AT least the Canadian
Government assumes so when 1t actually sends
Commissioners TO try ana effect an arrangement
on lines which, While never literally defined are
well known to exclude anything like a sacrifice
Of our established industries, and any assertions
TO the contrary evidently lack any foundation in
fact.
1t appears from this that the reciprocity
feast to which the people of the United
States are invited BY their northern neigh
Dor is limited to the free admission of Cana
dian agricultural products into the United
States and a chance to compete with En-
glsh manufacturers in the Canadian mar
ket for the sale of manufactured goods.
The kind Of reciprocity which Sir John
Macdonald proposes does not admit of any
discrimination in duties against British
goods. 1t is not surprising that Mr.. Blaine
sent the Canadian Commission home
with their mission unaecomplished. The
reciprocity agreements with Brazil. Spain
and other South American countries have
been based upon the proposition that GER
tain kinds OF American goods should be adj
mitted into their markets on more favorable
terms than like goods from European coun-
tries. But Canada wants our market with
out giving anything in return.

men and women learn to know each other,
10 appreciate and to forbear with each othP".
In the clearinghouse it is easy to escape
the friction Of life. but that very friction is
dis cipline. 1t serves as a safely-yalye.
Where there is no friction the elements of
diseord acquire silent strength until some
day they expl ode in scandal or a divorce
Where there is DO constant and private assO-
citation the man and the woman seldom learn
TO adjust themselves to each other.
clearinghouse life recalls DR.. Watts and
his doggerel about Satan and the mischief
he finds. There can be no worse ilaee in the
world for young wife than boarding
where she is surrounded by other young
women-idle, ehatter-loying and purpose
less-like herself. From the time her hus-
band leaves he till he returns in the even
ing she has long day before her, and she
cannot possibly fill up so many hours with
reading, or music, or sewing. Her time
must hang heavy on herhands. Under the
roof with her she finds old stagers who have
lived years in clearinghouse, who know
everything about everybody, especially the
things they should not know. They under

self; that a walk past the Kearhy-street
statues is real fun; that she ought to
spend at least four nights week at the
theater; that visits from gay young men are
not only permissible. but are her absolute
right. How much of her freshness and pur-
ity survives a few months of this expert
ence ii might be interesting to reckon.
The true relation between boarding
houses and the divorce record has never been
marked out. But it will not be doubted by
those who have taken pains to watch the
counts that there would be fewer unhappy
marriages if every woman had q home to
take care OF, no matter how small it was.

small houses or flats, renting for S25 or less.

newly married couples would have much
brighter prospect of happiness than they
can ever enjoy in the promiscuous society OF
a boarding-house.
