SHIFTING! SHIFTING!!

In the Clinton Caucasian of July
14th, Mr.. Marion Butler writing to
the Third-party said:
Nv hat is there to he gained Tor
reform by defeating the Democratic
Stste Ticket? Nothing, but much
TO lose, let the result he what it may.
If you elect your ticket, you do it at
tie sufferauce of the Republican
party, and you are at their mercy
now and in the future. If you are
the cause of the Republican party
capturing the State you have given
a heavy blow to the Cause OF reform
and put the management of your
State in unworthy and incapable
hands. Let not those who want Of
flee more thai they 30 reform pre-.
cipitate you into linking any such
unwlse action
How does Mr.. Bntier reconcile his
action as chairman OF the Third PSF
ty State Convention last week with
his advice to the Third. partyites IN
July?
Did not Mr.. Butler lie acting as
chairman of that convention and thu $
aiding the Republicans to 'captur e
the State" lend efficient service ID
giving "a heavy blow to the cause OF
Reform" and in putting the manage
ment of the State into UNIV :!bY and
inCap BILE hands
Are the true principles II re.
form 80 unstable as to change with
every moon z Are such leaders safe
counselOrs in uation whose indie
pendence has been stamped upon the
life of the people for more than q
century
1t is boasted that the people OF
this country are at last awake to
think Tor themselves. Let them
think oil theie things.

WHO WILL DO IT7

THE DEMOCRAT has for nearly Eve
years persistently urged upon the
farmers of this section the necessity
and wisdom of making every posi-
BILE home supply. Tue and again
have we argued with the farmers
that the only way to farm success
folly is to raise home supplies first
and then = Surplus crop for money
We hayA preached this because We
have known whereof we spoke; there
fore, we spoke from safe conclusions
We have been sratihed for The
past two years at the great increase
10 the acreage In corn throughout
this locality.
Last spring we presented the mat
ter Of wheat culture to the farmers
and suggested that they plant their
crops with an eye TO the convenience
Of sowing wheat this fall. We Dc
not know whether anyone took oul
advice; tut We call their attention
TO the subject again. We have
hesrd number of farmers say they
are going to plant wheat. The
great need is good mills. Our landt
will make wheat and the farmer.
will be in their own light IF they dc
not plant it.
Tue DEMOCRAT guarantees tina,
If he farmers SOW the wheat and
make an opportunity for milling tc
be profitable the public shall know
it. Who Will plant wheat to make
their flour for next wear?

BUTLER HUsHED UP .

Last week Marion Butler and DR.
Exum, the Third party candidate
for Governor, were present at a
big Alliance dinner at Garner in
Wake county.
DR.. Exum spoke and Butler spoke.
Butler took advantage of the occa>
sion to make a Third-party speech,
and some sOber-sided AIliancemen
called HIM TO order. They protest
ed against such speech on such
an occasion; and especially did they
object to his nnbecoming language
in some anecdOte before ladies.
Mr.. Buffers course seems to be a
little crooked-extremely so, Indeed.
and the Alliance will soon find ont
that every man who sets up to be q
leader will bear watching.

School attendance and discipline. Our
new principal no doubt finds that the
highest standard in regard to either of
the above particulars in the character of
our public school, has not yet been
attained. We understand that particu-
lar pupils have by absence from some of
the sessions tried avoid certain exer-
cises which are put down for practice in
the regular prescribed course. Their
excuse when called to account for this
absence, has been sometimes that their
parents only required them to study
''the three RS" and they need not de-
claim or write compositions, etc. Now
the Prudential committee and all the
people who have been to school enough
themselves to know the value of being
educated little more than in the three
RS, are inclined to justify and sustain
the principal in his effort to bring the
whole school up to the highest and COM
plete requirement of the prescribed
course. We hope moreover that the
principal will not despair too soon of
eventually bringing up the standard of
discipline in our Vermont school so that
the department of pupils in the school,
on the play ground and on the streets
shall in some degree approximate to
to that which prevails in Massachusetts,.
We shall not at present be more par
ticular in our suggestions than to ad-
monish parents to help the teachers In
their efforts to secure high rate Of
regular attendance, and require their
children to be at school in school hours,
instead of lounging about stores and
depots. At some future time we may
find occasion to refer to this subject
again.
