H PUBLIC L

Mr.. EDITOR :-Everything ~undergoes
changes. The seasons of the year are
never constant; water courses fire.
qUently change their beds; the best
kinds of fruits and grains cease to
thrive well in the same locality, and
need a change to bring about satistac-
tory results; stock need constant care
and Improvement to make them profit
able; cities must have all the modern
improvements of waterwords and cleo
trio plants to keep pace with the out
side world, So, public sentiment is
undergoing a change. The desire for
better government is expressed by all
who love liberty. In the last three
decades America has advanced more
by way of labor saving machinery,
economical lights and power for run
ming machinery by electricity than for
three thousand years before. But how
has 1t been with governmental affairs2
Have they kept pace with these many
other advantages of mankind and such
laws as to do their part In making
mankind happy and -prosperous9 The
The answer comes no, no.. In these
same thirty years in which the ma
terial world has given us so many
I~abor-saving advantages our legislative
halls have piled upon this people bur

sequence Of this, we e a few men i'm
mensely rich and many, many inn
mensely poor. We see Congressman
and Senators become millionaires on a
IS. 900 salary per year. This says, &C
cording to our last census, that 1000
persons are left without a cent of
money, for according to the census,
there is $1,O0O of valuation to every
person In the United States, and to
make one millionaire, 1000 persons
are robbed Of all their money
But public sentiment is now uader-

THE FRANoEs.C CLEVELAND INFLU-

THE FRANCES-C CLEVELAND INFLU-
ENCE CLUB,
NEW YORK, June 26, 1892.
Mrs. GroUer Cleveland,
DEAR MADAM:-It gives us great
pleasure, as Representatives of that
great body of women to Democratic
sympathies, to inform you that the
Frances Cleveland Influence Club has
been formed by the mothers, wives,
sister and daughters of,the New York
Democrats. We have taken the liberty
of using your name for the first of
many influence clubs, which we trust
will spring up throughout the country,
and which after November 9Th will
confirm the Judgment of the Republic
can leader regarding 1890, that "the
women did it." We feel that this cam
paign is to lift the burden of taxation
from the homes of the land, and we as
home defenders, desire part in the
struggles.
Yours respectfully,
MARY FROST ORMsBY,
Pres't Frances Cleveland Influence
Club, No. 4.
The above strongly illustrates the
wiIes and far-reaching aims of the
Democratic party as manipulated by
Wall street. The significance of a wo-
mans influence club, having its origin
in the city of New York, the very
heart of p~Iutocracy, estensibly for the
purpose of aiding in lifting the bur-
dens of taxation from the homes of
the land" speaks much.
We would inquire, with respect as
to what a milIionaire's wife, whose
husband pays no taxes on his hordes
of gold, knows of the burdens of tax
alton.
Since New York women, with their
wealth and refinement, have furnished
the precedent, why should not the
mothers, wives, sisters and daughters
of fathers, husbands, brothers and sons
of reform follow, and in localities suf-
fciently peopled, form influence clubs
and work hand in hand with them and
endeavor In deed and In truth to lift
the burdens of taxation from those
who have realized the oppression of it's
Calling chains.
The patriotic women of North Caro-
lima, and they are not a few, could or
qanize Polk Influence Clubs, thus aid
ing and forwarding the good work he
so bravely defended. l.. b. M.

LETTER FROM GEORGIA.

EASTONVILLE, Ga.
Mr.. EDIToR:-Politics are all astir in
Georgia at present. The Peoples party
it seems r in the ascendancy and also
in the majority. Our reform speakers
are stumping the State, and the DemO-
Gratis r on the run" and appear to
be at a loss to know where they are
at" Our gallant Tom Watson Is max

died out. Tt is like an empty dream
and a dead issue and does not avail
an, thing among a thinking people.
The time has passed that people
can be fed on such bosh. It's good-by
goId-bug and plut 1cracy In Georgia as
the foothold of the bosses and the town
tricksters is fast slipping from them

September ID 1892.
Mr.. EDITOR-The Peoples party
had a field day in CASTOR county to
day. DR.. W. p. Exum made a straight
forward manly speech of about Is or
80 minutes, followed by j. S. Bell of
a little over an hour, and was replied
to by Marion Butler, and if ever a man
got a skinning that nan was j. S. Bell.
Butler took him up on his own ground
and wiped the earth up with him on
Cleveland's record on tariff and pension
legislation. Butler proved by the New
York World that Cleveland signed
more pension bills than all the Presi.
dents before him since the war, and
that he spent thirty five millions more
pension money in three years than
Harrison did in a like period of time.
Butler also doWned him on his tariff
record and proved it by Henry Water
son, good democratic authority. But
Ter met him at every point to the salts
faction of every Peoples party mar
present, and the chagrin and disgust
of the Democrats.
I am satisfied that Bell helped the
cause Of the Peoples party more than
he hurt it. Ihope they will keep him
at work following Butler around. ]

HOW TO INCREASE FOUR HUN.
DRIED POUNDS OF GUANo TO
FOUR THOUSAND POUNDS.
Green Crops Should Mature Before Be
ing Turned Under.
PROSPECT, N. @.

PROSPECT, N. @.
Mr.. EDIToR:-The ground should be
thoroughly broken and seeded to rye,
applying about 400 lbs. of guano, or it's
equivalent In any other fertilizer, per
acre. When the straw begins to turn
yellow the rye should be turned under
with a double pillow, using a log chain,
or other proper device, to drag it down.
Next lay off into rows about four feet
apart and plant In the drill the ordi
nary COW pea, preferably of the kind
that produces the largest vines. Thin
out to one stalk for about every six
inches and cultivate thoroughly.
When the peas mature the pods may
be gathered, but the improvement will
be greater if they be turned under with
the vines.
Some years ago a farmer near here
gathered and piled in the field a guam
tity of peas, lsome of which shattered
out. He sowed with wheat, and where
the peas were shattered the wheat was
much better, thus proving that the
shattered peas a valuable fertili-
ger. After this he would not have any
more peas gathered on halves, prefer
ring to turn them under for the benefit
of the land. Oregon peas "a small blue
pea) thrive well On poor land and are
said to answer exceedingly well for
improvement purposes.
Anumber of well attested cases show
that clover, when turned under too
green, being in bloom, did a positive
injury to the land, requiring lime to
correct an improper acidity, or sour
ness, thus produced.
A few years ago another farmer near
here turned under a portion of a field
where the weeds were quite green. The
weeds on the residue of the field were
ripe, being like sticks, when turned.
Wheat followed and was much better
to the very divid ng furrow on the por-
ton where the weeds wer ripe when
turned.
During the period of decomposition,
the oxygen of the air combines with
the carbon in the decaying plants and
forms carbonic acid gas. The fertliz
ing properties of this gas are so great
and the quantity produced so abund-
ant, that the value of any fertilizer
that may have been employed on the
rye will be increased, as near as l can
calculate, ten fold.
Follow the peas with wheat and
prove the correctness of my figures by
an abundant yield. BRYAN Tyson.

THE FARMER AND POLITICS.

The prosperity of farmer today
depends more on the methods he
employs than on governmental
rule. Take seeds for an example:
Many farmers who are alive to
their own interests in other things
are careless in buying seeds. They
seem to think that seed is a seed
and there it ends. If there was
more knowledge about seeds and
greater care exercised in their Sc
lection, there would be richer crops
and better returns.
Realizing this, D. NJ. Ferry &
Co., the famous firm of Detroit,
Mich, have embodied in their
illustrated Annual for 1898, much
valuable information about seeds
and their selection. 1t contains
the knowledge cleaned from many
years practical experience in the
seed business, and the newest and
best things about gardens and gar
dening. Such a book issued by a
firm OF unquestioned reliability is
of the highest value to every one
who plants seed. Although the
cost of printing and embellishing it
with beautiful illustrations has
been great, it is sent free to any
one making application to the
above firm.

The Umbrella Is a Mark Of Rank.

The Chinese book of ceremonies,
"Tcb eou-Li," dated about 800 A. D.,
giv.s directions for the use of an UNI
bella to be borne over tho imperial car.
In Hindoo mythology it was with an
umbrella borne over his head that
Vishnu visited the internal regions.
The use of the umbrella in ancient
Greece and Rome as an adjunct to the
toilets of people of fashion and in sew.
eral ceremonies is attested by countless
quotations from such writer's as Gillian,
Pausanias, Aristophanes, Aristotle, Plu-
tarch, Ovid, Martial, Juvenal, Pliny
and others. The Greeks called it '.ski-
adeion" and the Romans ''umbella" and
''umbracula."
The Roman umbrella was formed Of
skin and leather stretched on rods and
could be lowered when not in use. The
honor of bearing it over the owner was
reserved to the favorite slave or servant.
Umbrellas formed part of the Injuries
Of wealthy Byzantines and Romans.
The Emperor Claudian carried u golden
umbrella with carved ivory handle.
A Roman writer (Gorius) says that the
Romans got it originally from the
Etruscans. In Siam the king grants the
right to employ an umbrella as q patent
of nobility.
The Indian and Persian title of satrap.
comes from the words CHI hatra-pati, or
''lord OF the umbrella" the Hindoo and
Burmese for umbrella being "Chata."
