THE LEADERS AT WORK.
A dispatch from Washington

n dlo'ooSi II oAd W eeoiiii' . eOA
says:
'.The Post will print, tomorrow,
circular calling a council of the presi
dents and members Of the executive
committees of the state Farmers AL
llances at Birmingham, Ala, On
Tuesday, the Sd Of May.
'The circular says that this is the
most critical period in the history of
the order. Never has there been
such a universal and loud cry from
the order to the officers for directions
how to conduct local fights. Never
action among the officers of the diff
ferent states and sections. This, II
allowed to continue, the circular says,
must be fatal Concert of action is
imperative, and success cannot be
achieved with out it. The political
contest threatens destruction to the
order The circular explains tina. the
expenses attending national councils
Of this charac er is too great to be
borne with convenience, hence the
present method of a meeting of the
officers is proposed
"Great stress IS laid upon the i'm
portance of meeting, and the neces
cessity for full and free councils 10y
all executive officers is said to be
greater than at any time in history of
| the movement. The meeting will be
strictly secret, with none but prop
perly accredited persons admitted.
| >f 70 (s
state alliances have been invited to
attend: Virginia, West Virginia
Maryland, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Alabama.
Mississippi. Louisiana, Texas, Arkan
sas, Missouri, Kentucky, and Tenne
ssee. Also the officers of the Alll
ance in the territory of Oklahoma"
This would indicated that the
leaders who are trying to con
vert the Alliance into political
machine are beginning to see that
their effo, is are threatening the
destruction of the machine.
There is also here another in
dication that the leaders are
| striving to secure more perfect
organization in the desperate ef
forts they will make to capture
several Southern States for th'
Third party.
The schemes that will be hatch

WINSTON SALEM BUILDING
BOOM

The SENTINEL contains the
proof positive this afternoon
that Winston-Salem is enjoying
a building boom, and there is
nothing SO substantial in the
way of town building as a
healthy building boom.
Real estate booms are not al
ways to be taken as the index OF
of the growth of a community,
but the building offactories, bus
mess blocks and residences is the
building of a city, and that is
just what is going onin Winston
Salem today.
This building boom is not the
result either of an unhealthy fl
nancial ur industrial condition
and there is no danger that the
houses now going up will ever
be without occupants. They are
a result of an active demand.
Manufacturing and business
interests have out-grOwn their
quarters and the people who
have found employment and
profitable business here are build
inc their own homes.
One of the most encouraging
features of the active building
operations is the large number
of residences that are going NJ.
This indicates that our popu-
lation is not only increasing rap
idly but that it is permanent.
THE SENTINEL predicted sever
al months ago that 1892 would
be the brightest year in the his
tory of Winston-Salem, and the
prophecy is already being fulfill
ed.
No citizen of Winston Salem
can read this paper today with
out a feeling OF pride that he
- lives IN the most progressive, ano
II most rapidly growing city il
North Carolina, and the city
that will soon be the metropolis
of the State.

OPPOSITION TO HARRISON.

The President May Not Have SO Easy
Task i'm Securing a denomination.
WASHINGTON, April 26-There are
reasons for the belief that the oppo-
sition to President Harrison renom-
nation is much more widespread,
more serious and more active than
is generally supposed.
There is a great deal that is mys
terious and bewildering in the
course of this opposition and from a
superficial view it appears to lack or
pose. But things have come to
light within the past few days which
Indicate that this is more in appear
ance than in fact and that the oppo-
sition is really well organized and be-
Ing conducted in a systematic man
ner.
When it is said that things have
transpired to reveal this condition of
affairs it is not meant that these
things have actually come to the
surf zee in full view of the public. The
planning of this opposition has been
left to comparatively few leading
Republicans and what they have
done has been managed very quietly
and to a great extent, in secret.
The result of their work, and their
general plan Of operation is now be-
coming known to a greater number
of the prominent Republicans in of
fetal life and the time is approaching
when, it is believed, the whole mat
ter will be revealed.
