impossible for us to call them
up for the purpose of review.
Life appears to have been a
dream in which we are consci-
Gus that we went through vast
deal-suffered much pain and
experienced much pleasure; but
we do not remember what or
when. We are conscious that
we have had many friends, but
we can not now recollect all
they did for us, nor all we did
for them. We know that we
have had enemies, but the in
suits, which once reused us, we
no longerrecan. The very names
of those who once injured us,
have faded away and time has
healed the wounds. 1t is a mel
ancholy fact, too, that we have
to refresh our memories with
portraits of our dearest friends.
That voice which used to fall
upon our ears with such tender
ness and melody, and that sweet
countenance which once BEAM
ed so intelligently upon us, are
almost forgotten, and it is only
in our dreams that they appear
to us, as they were in life.
Although our minds are OBJ
livious of the past, the past has
made its impression upon us.
The tone of our feelings is sad,
although we cannot specify now
all that helped to make it so.
Troubles long since forgotten
have left their weight upon us,
and our countenances bear a
melancholy aspect from things
which happened years ago. The
mirror reflects deep furrows up
on our cheeks, although we are
ingnorant now of the sorrows
which caused them.
Who, with the most retentive
memory, can form an adequate
idea of the amount of pain he
has endured or the joys he has
tasted. the sins he has commit
ted, or the good that he has
done? And yet each word and
action has had its effect on the
general result-each has helped
to make us what we are.
Reader, if you will keep a
blank book, and write some
thing in it concerning yourself
NOT every day, for perhaps
that would be too laborious-
but every month, you will have
the material with which to re-
fresh your memory, and, in fu-
ture years, the perusal of it will
afford you both pleasure and
profit.

Not to he POOLED ..gain.


An argument which had much
to do with Mr.. Harrison's cleo
ton in 1883 was the claim on
the part Of the Republicans
that the tariff SHOULD be revised
by its friends and not by its
enemies. They acknowledged
that the tariff in many of its
schedules was too high, and
that it should be reduced-that
it contained many Inequalities
and injustices, and should be re-
vised with an eye t6 their cor
rection. But they insisted that
the people should devolve that
duty upon the party that was
friendly to a moderate protec-
tive system, and not to a party
which they held to BE hostile to
all tariffs and was really in
favor of absolute free trade.
AS many people, who earnest
ly favored a modification of the
worse than war tariff, did not
wish to see the violent changes
and consequent disarrangement
of business which they were
taught to believe Z, Democrats
were determined upon. they
were easily persuaded to trust
the Republicans once more.
What was the result? Every
pledge in the direction of a
lower tariff and relief to an
overtaxed people was defiantly
repudiated. Instead of reduced
taxation on the raw materials
of the manufacturer and the
necessaries of life, every change
in the tariff schedules was in
the direction of higher duties,
The result is that the people
who desires relief from unnec-
essary taxatlon-and they com
pose an overwhelming majority
of the yoters-have only ont
party, the Democratic, to look
TO. The old cry that the tariff
must be revised by its friends
can never be used with effect
again. If the people ever ex
pect TO be relieved of taxation
which is crushing the life oui
of them, they must ele;t
Democratic president and con
gress. In the Republican par
ty, dominated as it is by tn
beneficiaries of the monopol.
tariff, there is no hope, and th
people at last appreciate tha
fact.

General Weaver, as late as
1888 repeated his bill in Con-
gress to pay the Federal soldiers
the difference between the
greenbacks in which they
were paid, and gold in New
York at the time they were
paid. $3O0,00O,OO0 was the
amount he proposed to issue for
that purpose, but any one can
readily see 1t would be insufli-
cient. IL has been a pet scheme
with Weaver, and hence the
plank in the st. Louis platform
which the State Alliance of
North Carolina adopted, is at
tributed to him. IL that plank
which the Third party in North
Carolina advocates, should be-
come o law, the amount which
North Carolina would have to
pay would be about S11, ,000, 900.

Words of a Patriot.

Says the Philadelphia Times
Mr.. Cleveland has written to
Frank P. Poston, the brother of
the man killed by Clay King, in
reply to a complaint against his
sympathetic letter to Kings
niece. He is surprised that the
purport of his letter has been
so misunderstood and thinks
that his critics have overlooked
the fact that it was a reply to
the appeal Of ian apparently
heart-broken woman y and
that Mr.. Cleveland absolutely
declined to interfere with the
Governor in the case. He adds;
"In response to your sugges
ton that this act of mine may
, result in the loss of Democratic
votes in the pending campaign
you will pardon me, | hope, il
| say that when political ex'
pediency forces me TO be dis
courteous to a distressed wo
man, i am prepared to retir,

WE have no unkind feelings
toward the man who conscien-

sorry for because they are de-

Reviewing Our Lives.

From the Danville Times.
There is not a man living, we
dare say, who has not, at one
time or another, attempted a
review of his whole past career,
How important the task and
yet how imperfectly it must,
necessarily, be performed; for
the reason that we have to rely
on our memories, having made
but few notes of our lives.
Therefore, we love to listen to
the songs of other days; the
music is sweet, but, sweeter far
are the images they recall. We
love, too, after an absence of
many years, to revisit our old
homes to be reminded of by
gone days.
As we journey on, we now
and then meet with familiar
faces and objects which bring
back some portion of the past.
Perhaps they make us glad, or
it may be, that they draw tears
from cur eyes; but these are on
lily glimses which we catch from
time to time, the rest is lost for
ever. We shall never meet with
anything to remind us of the
vast majority of our thoughts
and actions, and it is as utterly
impossible for memory to lay
before us our whole past career,
as it is for our eyes to unfold tc
us, at a glance, all that we have
seen during a long life. 1t il
true a few, very few, have haG
their memories quickened so a!
to recall, in a moments time
the transactions of many years
but, it has been when they wer'
in fear of immediate dissolu.
tion, when they were certain o.
death though it may not hav'
come, ,and when they had NJ
hope of earth to which to cling
! But such intensified moments
; are rare.
, Very often when we retire a
. night, unable to sleep on &C
count of bodily pain or anxious
, cares, we make the attempt Il
, review our past lives. We be

Not Afraid.

The Peoples party and Pro-
hibition speakers are bending
all their energies to persuade
the people of North Carolina
and the South that there is
nothing to fear from the pro-
posed Republican force bill.
They say it is only a campaign
bugaboo.
The author of the force bill,
Mr.. Cabot Lodge, described il
as legislation, which would, il
necessary to accomplish the
object, "put a bayonet behind
every ballot" And yet third
party leaders and Prohibition
, lists who are old enough to re
/ imember the reconstruction

legislation But perhaps, the

they expect to be on the side ot

are likely to be mistaken. Tht
