The Tingle Tangle."

A New York artist, recently returned
from Holland, brought with him an es-
shetic novelty that no young woman with
a swagger boudoir nor youth who con-
templates the furnishing of an artistic den
should be without.
1t is called Jingle tangle, and is an idea
that was originally struck upon by an as
tute Athenian some centuries ago. Now
it Is to he found in nearly every Dutch
farmhouse.
A six-stringed zither-in olden times
they used Tyre is attached to the door
near the top.
Hanging in line from projecting strip
OF wood nailed just above the either are
six leaden bullets, which rest when the
door is closed against the strings of the
instrument. A push of the portal causes
these bullets to swing out and rebound
irregulary, each striking its correspond
ing string and drawing fainl note from
1t. The music thus produced is ~ sweet
and vague as an Eolian harp, and as an
improvement upon the thump of q knockel
or clang of q doorbell cannot he praised
too highly.-N. Y. Commercial Advertiser

ANOTHER PLAN FOR RELIEF.

Mr.. EDITOR:-We have been reading
the various plans Of relief suggested in
The PROGRESSIVE FARMER for the bene-
fit of members of the Alliance who
have been unfortunate and who have
lost their properly In various ways.
All that we agree is very good, and
there should be some definite plan in
augurated to help each other. But
there Is one thing especially that we
should not overlook any longer, and
that is the portion of the seventh dec
laration of principles of the n. @. r,
A. in relation to widows and orphans,
which we claim is one of our brightest
jewels, and should be the brightest
jewel of all people; for if there is one
thing more binding to Our obligation
than another, we think it is this one
thing. 1t we make no preparations to
help each other, how can we expect to
receive help from the outside world,
which is fighting us so hard? Just
think what two cents each would do
throughout North Carolina, when so
many of our good and worthy brethren
are called to try the reality of an IN
known world and their poor widow
is left with a mortgage over them of
from 800 to $500, and for the lack of a
little help, she is sold out and left to
the mercy of the world. Should we
allow this to be so7 It seems to me l
can hear every true member say no, no.
We do feel able definitely to say that
our plan is the best method to get at to
remedy this trouble, but we do say that
is the best that presents itself to us
just now. We hope, should you allow
this to be published, that the brethren
will consider the necessity of some
thing of the kind, and that by the time

RESOLUTIONS BY THE EIGHTH
DISTRICT CONVENTION.

WHEREAS, We the delegates of the
Eighth Congressional district in ses-
sion at Lenoir this day, have received
the sad intelligence of the death of our
beloved President of the N. f. A. and
/, y. of America, Col. l.. L. Polk; and
whereas, in his death the Farmers Al
lance has lost one Of it's most brilliant
lights. Therefore in honor to his mem
DRY this convention moved to adjourn
for the space of half an hour. While
we submit to the ruling of a Divine
Providence in This sad dispensation
that hovers over the wealth producers
Of this nation a dark drapery of disap
pointment and mourning.
Resolved, That in the death of our
dear brother the church has lost one of
it's purest and best supporters.
2. That in the death of L. L. Polk
the reform movement has lost a scholar
of rare ability and a patriot Of the
truest type.
3. That we the citizens and represen.
tatives of the Eighth Congressional
district tender and extend to the be,
reaved family our heartfelt sympa-
thies. w. w. LEAGUE,
f. w. THOMPSON,
w. D. HICKMAN.
The convention decided not to make
any formal nomination of a candidate
for Congress, but unanimously en-
dorsed Prof. R. L. Patton as the can
didate of the Peoples party, he having
declared himself in favor of the Ocala
demands and the three planks in the
st. Louis platform, viz: Finance, land
and transportation.
The chairman of the convention was
authorized to appoint executive com
mittees in counties in the district not
yet organized. Short but pointed
speeches were made during the sitting
of the convention by P. A. Whitener,
of Burke; f. w. Thompson, of CASTOR;
Sheriff Byars, Of Cleveland, and Lawes,
of Alexander.
The convention was a unit on every
subject presented for consideration, a
firmness that made it's impress upon
the large assembly Of spectators, con
sisting of some of the best people of
Lenoir and Caldwell county. The very
best order prevailed during the session
of the convention, and the respect paid
to the delegates by those holding diff
ferent views from ours was all that
could have been asked.
On motion the convention adjourned.
Benediction by the Secretary.

CONVENTION IN THE FIRST
DISTRICT.
DARDEN'S, n. @.

OARDEN - IN. ~.
Mr.. EDIToR:-The First district Con
gressional convention of the Peoples
party of North Carolina was held in
Elizabeth City on the 10th inst. The
meeting was largely attended by those
counties near the place of meeting, but
some of the remotest counties were
represented by only one delegate to the
county. The convention did not make
any nominations for Congrt SIS or Presi-
Dental Elector, but decided to hold a
convention in the city of Edenton at
some time IN future for that purpose.
The work of the convention was to or
ganize, pass resolutions and send dele
to Omaha, all of which it did.
The delegates and alteInates to
Omaha, Neb., are as follows: Dele
gates-M. G. Gregory, of Pagquotank;
j. @. Andrews, of Martin; Robert
White, of Perquimans; NJ. G. Bryan,
of Pitt. Alternates-A. W. Jordan, of
Perquimans; T. E. McCaskey, of Mar
tin; w. M. Bateman, of Washington;
P. L. Northern, of Currituck.
The meeting adjourned subject to a
future call by the Executive Commit
tee of the district.

A VOICE FROM c
ELLIJAY, n. @.

ELLIJAY, N. ~.
Mr.. ED1ToR:-The editor of the
Franklin macon county, Press says
of the peoples party convention which
was held on the 18th of June in Frank
lin, N. O., that it was ''Snipes" con
vention, whatever that may al
Yes, DR.. McCloud was present, and so
was the editor of the press, and each
seemed to vie with the other to see
which could grace the occasion most,
but we believe the verdict up to this
time is that "Snipe" outgraced, ard
that perhaps explains why the editor
fell into q tiff and called it Snipes con-
ventiOn.
Never mind, Bro. Curtis, you found
that the Peoples party convention
was not a dance before some old politi-
cal Herod. Granny" Heroidas was
not even consulted. You and all other
Philistines who stand in the way of re-
form and squirt bosh will yet learn to
quail at the mirage of the jaw bone Of
an ass, provided you don't die so we
can get a real jaw-bone.
Three cheers for the Peoples party
of Macon county!

men; now let s have men as noble as
our measures and as large as our
wants, to be our standard bearers.
Surely we are all citizens, and the
prosperity of one class means the pros
perity of all, ond that which hurts one
will hurt all.
1t will always be true, as it has al
ways been true, that some will be rich
and some will be poor, but we don't
want the rich to get much richer nor
the poor to get much poorer by IN wise
and improper legislation. We want
true, pure men in Office, unpurchas-
able and unbulldozed, men who are the
faithful servants of a free people
sober men, privately pure and pollti-
cally honest.
There is weakness and defect in di-
vision; there is strength and victory
in union. I am no partisan, but l am
a North Carolinian and her veal or
woe touches me on all sides, and I
would see eliminated from our State
all that would maj her beauty and
corrupt her ballOt-box. There was
never a time. when men should be more
deliberate and thoughtful, and it is my
humble opinion that the Farmers ALI
ance is our only salvation.

OUR POLICY.
The Duty of the HOur--our Demands.
7 E. Lei AsKEY, Sec'y.

The Duty of the Hour--Cur Demands.
Mr.. EDIToR:-The policy of those
who demand financial reform should
be to make no nominations where our
principles are not involved. NOmina-
tions should not be made for State,
judicial and local officers. We must
make our fight on presidential electors
and congressman; pursuing this policy
we will take the wind out of the sails
of those who cry negro supremacy,
they will treat and discuss our demands
with respect as they will want our
support for State and other offices. If
we should nominate an independent
ticket throughout they will misrepre-
sent and malign demands for re-
form. I saw this policy tried in one
county in the North and it worked like
a charm and the greenbaCkers demands
were discussed with the right spirit
We have reached a crisis in the history
of the country, with an abundance of
crops and production of wealth such
as the world never saw before, the
agricultural class is compelled to sell
for less than cost of production. AS
all prosperity is bOttOmed on a pros
porous agriculture, this condition will
bring bankruptcy to every class and
object point to the laborers. 1t is
only a question of a few years when
protection will fail to protect even the
manufacturers as we will reach the
European level in prices of labor and
manufactured goods and the wealth of
the country will have passed into the
hands of the few, and these principally
foreigners, and we will have foreign
landlordism in the United States
exemplified.
One billion and eight hundred mil
lions of railroad stocks is held in Europe
and a large per cent. Of western farm
mortgages and municipal indebted
ness which will pass under their con-
troll. We demand that the finance of
the country shall be taken from the
control of co rporations and restored to
the people to whom it belongs, that the
volume of money shall be IN sufficient
quantity to transact the business of
the country on a cash ba sis and shall
be put into circulation without taxing
the people, as money is created to make
exchanges. pay taxes and debts; it
mustb be confined to perform it's function
by law. Transportation and the dis
elimination of news must pass under
the control of the people, and every
class must be placed where they can
fix q living price on the fruits of their
toll and the tariff and finance must be
so adjusted as to secure this result.
We will not support any party or
candidate dictated by Wall and LON
bard streets, or one that refuses tn
adopt the above demands.
The time has come when we m11st
by u principles with hearts of
oak OF all is lost. To falter now would
prove us towards and dastards and m
worthy descendants of noble sires. In
this contest there can be no compromise
with the money devil and their adj
herents for 5pOils of Office.

LETTER FROM THE EAST.

C~OINJoCK, Currituck Co., N. Q.
MIR. demonstrating a few mo-
ments in the interval between the
hours of school this week, I have read
and heard many things concerning the
political situation in North Carolina.
Judging from the volume of smoke,
there is fire somewhere. A cyclone
has certainly struck North Carolina
politics. know something of the two
old parties, Democratic and Republi-
can, but know but little of the creed
and dogmas of the Third party. So I
declare I will never be drawn off in
politics and party affiliations, after
office seekers and deluded cranks and
give my allegiance toa gang who never
did anything for themselves, thereby
demonstrating their inability to do
anything for me.
I am fully conscious that the blum
ders and sins of the two old parties are
grievOus and damaging, and that they
both deserve punishment, but as a citi-
zen and Confederate soldier of
North Carolina, l have some choice as
to their probable successors in office.
There is a want and a truth underly
ing the great movement of the wage
workers and farming class, and God
knows I would see their wants minis
tered unto and their truth interpreted;
but who will, by wise legislation and
impartial laws, so adjust government
al powers as that all honest men will
be equal before the laws and who will
forever abolish all class legislation9
Who can and will do this9 Let those
who think and who have a for
thinking, survey the field and answer
this question. AS the gulf widens be-
tween Wall street and the honest
laborer, it seems that demagogues
multiply and class legislation increases.
/ have a profound contempt for the
demagogue who only seeks promotion
of self, who is Of unsavory reputation,
and NJ more reputation than a Nor
wegian rat.
The press and hustings will give us
light on men and measures and 1T Is
the duty of all men to lay aside passion
and prejudice and hear both sides n
act according to the dictates of true
wisdom and pure patriotism. But the
prejudice which shuts out the light
from either side of the great issues be-
fore the people will gather here and
there a half truth and a dangerous
faIsehood which will madden its vo-
tarieg and swamp its victims. We
have advocated measures and ignored

CLIPPINGS.

The i'll paid drudge owes society 10
thanks.
Every glutton has for his cOmpR,
ment some one who Is starving.
Think of this: every dollar of taxes
is paid out of the net earnings Of the
taxpayer.
Mountains of wealth and valleys Of
wretchedness. Lower the mountains
and the valleys disappear.
He OF she who honestly perfOrmstae
humblest necessary work, is as much
entitled to the comforts Of life as the
President himself.
There should not be all idle man in
America while our public roads are as
poor as at present, and Congress has
power to issue money.
Anarchy is dangerous; so is small
pOx. Neither exist without a cause
The wise man will remove the cause
and prevent the danger.
Protection protects American labor
does it? And national statistics show
that American labor earns an average
of SO cents per day. Come off.
Debts should be reckoned in WORE,
and it should take no more days Oh
work to pay a debt than it would have
taken to pay it when the debt was COZ
tracted.
There is an era rushing this way, IN
which the man who fattens on the lg,
norance, weakness and passions Of
will not wear the mantle Oh
responsibility.
