THE LEADER !!

Everyone who reads knows the result
of Don Quixote's "battle with the wind
mills" Even though that cratic Indl-
vidual had only the most primitive mills
to combat he found himself" done up
on his first attempt to subdue that which
had aroused his ire; had he come In
contact with an Aermotor 1t is propaole
that he would have refrained from any
attempt to contest the ground with SO
strong machine. We can excuse him
for his action in batting with the an
Gent stvle windmill, and could have
done so had he waited g. few years longer
and tackled the old fashioned wooden
mills which are now going rapidly out
OF date, but there could be no excuse Tor
his desire to fight steel Aermotor. de
would not be in it.
Don Quixote's farce reminds US OF the
attempts of some persons OF to-day VINO,
with even greater confidence than the
Don, start in for fight with the Aer-
motors They buckle on their armor
and start out. only to end by adding to
the rapidly increasing popularity OF the
Aermotor, The greatest windmill on
earth"
We get a new invoice of Aermotors
by each steamer and yet cannon
supply the demand for them. They are
recognized as the most powerful mill In
operation, and we do not hesitate to say
that within SIX months there will not be
a single individual who needs wind
mill on these Islands who will buy any
| other kind.
You have been told through the news
papers before that the mills are so light
in construction that gentle zephyr will
run them; so easy and perfect are those
| we have seen in operation, and by a
letter recently received from purchaser
OF an Aermotor We are almost tempted
to tell you now that they will run in a
dead calm. This would not be fal
wrong for we have seen l2-foot mil
revolve rapidly wher there was MOI
enough wind to carry the smoke from
the stack of steam engine only shor
distance from the Aermotor. These are
facts much too hard for the manufac
turers of other mills to fight. We enjoy
hearing the praises of other mills sunt
because parties interested in windmills
make comparisons and then come to Ou
store and select an Aermotor. HA

THERE was report on Thursday that
the steamer Mokolii had returned to
port the previous evening, and after a
short stay left again for Molokai. AS
nothing certain could be learned about
her, no mention was made of it in Thurs
days paper. Yesterday it transpred
that she did return as above with Mar
shall Wilson ON board, and after short
stay went back, as stated above, with
the Marshal on board. Nothing can be
learned definitely regarding his mission,
bot it is surmised that he came to auth
orize and arrange, as Chief Engineer,
for the firemen to have a torch-light pro-
cession to escort the Queen from the
landing to the Palace very proper
and commendable thing to do, if she ar
rives, as is now expected, during the
evening.

The LeO's assassination Plot.
Mr.. EDITOR: Old scares having be-
come threadbare, and facts scarce. the
Leo's editorial powers of invention have
been called into play, and it was an
nounced a few days ago that "the Thurs.
ton clique" were preparing to force the
Queen to sign new Constitution. This
invention not returning the expected
dividends, a step further was taken on
the 4th instant, and it was then an
nounced, under the heading of " Con-
spiracy," that Thurston and Wunden-
berg were Matching plot to assassinate
the Queen, and had held meetings for
that purpose, more particularly on last
Saturday night.
10 those who know the editors of the
Lee" and those who know me, any
denial OF these statements would be un-
necessary and superfluous. But when a
crime is publicly charged against man,
and reiterated in a newspaper, it is a
natural feeling that where there is Sc
much smoke there must be some fire.
therefore desire to say that the state
ments made by the Leo are absolutely
fabrications from beginning to end.

PLANT DISEASES AND THEIR
REMEDIES.

The North Carolina Experiment Sta
tiOn has just issued a 20-page Bulletin,
No. 76, on plant diseases, illustrated by
II engravings showing the appearance
of diseased plants and the best forms
of spraying apparatus. This Bulletin
contains a brief and pointed chapter
on vineyard and orchard hygiene. and
treats in full of the following diseases:
Rot, mildew and anthracnOse of the
grape, black rot, black knot of plum
and cherry, apple, pear and ounce
scab, leaf blight of pear, fire blight of
pear, peach yellows, potato blight, rust
of cereals, bUnt of wheat, smut of oats,
smut of corn and ergot Of rye.
These diseases cause a yearly loss of
over 81, 600, 900 to the farmers and fruit
growers of this State, most of which
may be saved by timely attention.
This Bulletin will be sent free to all
names on the regular mailing list of
the Station and to others within the
State who apply for it. Only limited
number of copies will be available for
distribution outside the State. These
will be sent, so long as supply lasts, to

TO THE JUSTICES OF THE PEACE
OF WAKE COUNTY.

GENTLEMEN At our meeting at the
court house the first Monday in June
next, we will be called upon to fill some
vacancies in the Board of County Com
missiOners. The Commissioners office
IS very important. They have charge
of the finances of the county, there
fore we should be careful whom we
elect-enOugh so, at least, to be sure
to elect men who are citizens of this
county, and avoid paying SO much
mileage There is no good reason for
citizens of this county
charging the county with from 1OO to
21O miles travel in going to and from
the court house to attend a monthly
meeting. And, too let us have an eye
to the business capacity of the men we
elect Good business men with the in
terest of the county at heart could at
tend to th5 business of the county in
less time than from five to eight or ten
days each month, if they would work
like other business men-frOm six to
eight hours per day. Ii we will OBJ
serve the above, we may save the
county considerable expence. Econ
omy is a democratic principle. Wake
county ought not to pay any moro for
a pound of coffee than | do"

WHEREAS, On or about the 8th day
of February last brother J. NJ. Wood

the misfortune to lose their horses by
sickness, leaving them destitute of
means for the present year. The two

appointed to solicit subscriptions for
for the relief Of the two brothers, re
spectfully appeal to the Sub-AlliaDces
of North Carolina to aid us in restoring
to them the loss of their horses, one at
$50 and the other at So. They are in
debted for those horses, from the fact
that they have had bad luck from sick
ness in their families and are now
about to suffer.
Any contribution, however small,
Will be gratefully received by the two
brothers. All remittauces Should be

POPLAR TENT, April "a, 81


Mr. EDITOR Our Alliance is still IN
creasing in members and zeal in the
good cause. An effort is being made
to place u copy of THE PROGRESSIVE
FARMER and National Economist in the
hands of every member. We find
that the most jealous and faithful
members are those VINO read our or
gans. We are always glad to get THE
PROGRESSIVE FARMER and read every
thing in it, but we were especially
pleased with the article III the last issue
headed "Partisanism" and signed
"GuilfOrd." We, like GuilfOrd, don't
wish to dictate to our editor, but we
agree with him in his entire article
We were surprised when we saw the
article GA Plea for Mr. Cleveland" in
our organ and written Sby a member of
the Alliance. Surely Bro. Beall has
got in the wrong pew. Brother, either
support men that will carry out the
Alliance demands, or throw up the
sponge and come out. Such articles
as BealI's do the Alliance a great in
Justice. | see his article published In
the NelcS and Courier, Of Charleston,
a paper not devoted to the Alliance
cause by any means, but very partic-
ular to give the North Carolina organ
and an Alliance member credit for the
article. The partisan papers are very
glad to get such stuff. Let them have
it direct from the manufacturers. Let
me say to the members Of the Alliance,
stand by the demands; support no
enemy. Discuss all issues in the Ali
ance and abide by the majority
Brethren, be cautious, the enemy is
shy and his name is legion. SO says
IT.

two of its most trusted employees. are
short in their accounts The son re-
eeived an order for certain publica-

tnrn over the cash, which brought about
an investigation revealing the fact that
the populations of both were very
large. The Justification of the books
has been gong on for a number of
years. Martin G. has been manager Of
the concern twenty-five years, and
while the investigation into his sons
affairs was progressing was absent on
a vacation On his return he at first
denied the charge, but afterwards
broke down and admitted his
guilt, turning over $40 900 in real estate
to cover the shortage The son has
disappeared and no trace of him can be
found. The officers Of the company
say that the property turned over more
than secures the present defalcation.

that any expectation that President
