But now that their recognized and Of

Of all things needful this year, through
out the nation, that thing appears to be
harmony. From the p~rairies of Nebraska
and the billiards of the great northwest
from the bewitching landscapes of the
Pacific coast-yea, even among the tar
heels and the razor back hog, comes the
sad, soulful wail-Harmony, harmony
when there is no harmony.
Here in what was once the boosted
Solid South-a country which was com
posed of a common brotherhood-a peo-
pie regretting as they justly should have
done-the lost cause-their misfortunes
| Of war-and the chain had not n bro
ken link-and it seemed that time would
forge them stronger. But not so. Here
in that CONTAMINATION a very few years,
the democratic south-the democratic
party and all the principles for which
men fought and died and gave up homes
and chattels-well, it to-day is standing
in fear and trembling Of a crowd Of po-
litical mountebanks, wrecks and calam-
ity howlers, headed by LIEUTENANT
POLK an ex-dispenser of a cheap nostrum
on which he claimed to have made some
ninety or nine hundred per cen
And yet the wall comes through the
pines-Let us have harmony.
The idea is that harmony will always
exist if peace and plenty is in the land.
But when party spoilsmen, no matter of
what party--when they om Gin to rule
or ruin-to pillage and to plumber pro-
ducers and the common herd"-well,
there is no use to expect. much harmony
or count on much solidity in the party
which has for years been dominant.
We will wager the Yam Farm cow and
the calf which goes with her, that the
congressional platform adopted to day
will declare for everything a farmer needs
and her we'll bet the three pigs that the
platform is meaningless. What will it
amount to? Nothing. The platform is
meaningless and full of empty platitudes.
1t simply declares with an understanding
at the other end of the line that it will
not act.
And SO long as such deception in poll
tics is carried on; so long as the rich be-
come richer and the poor poorer-just
that long will we hear the howl for har-
mony. And when the alliance wreckers
get in the saddle the cry will be inten-
sified.

Keeiey Treatment Did the Work.
Progressive Farmer.l


Mr.. J. F. Bell, Of this city, having taken
a full course at the Kelley institute,
Greensboro, n. G., returned last week a
new man. Having received congratula-
tions from many friends on the street, he
naturally dropped in to shake hands with
his old friends in The Progressive Farmer
office, state business agent and secretary
state alliance, etc.
This treatment is evidently doing much
good. Many have left the institute claim
ing that they are cured. 1t is not claimed
that the liquor habit cannot be formed
again, but unless the patient cultivates
the taste for it, there is no danger of his
dying a drunkard. 1t is said that during
the thirteen years since the discovery of
the Kelley cure, 50 per cent Of the thou
sands of patients have been permanently
cured. Every n afflicted should try it,
anyhow.

THE FATEFTL DAY.

Tomorrow, if the convention can get
to work, the heartache will end. Those
who have political ambition-those who
have yearned and do yearn to serve their
state in some public Office or other, will
learn whether or not their day has come.
In the exuberance of youth one dreams
and dreams and dreams. When man
hood creeps upon him his dreams all
change, and he realizes that his name is
PANTS. Many are called and but few
chosen. Yet Hope, ever faithful, still
beckons him on. He resolves and re-
resolves and dies the same. He monkeys
with the buzz saw and his fingers are not.
He beats his creditors and the sheriff
nabs him. He wears out his clothes and
the tailor refuses to trust him. He pours
out his love to some maiden tall and fair
to see, and she chicks" him.
And he runs for Office and gets left.
But no matter.
Life is a riddle we.die in guessing, and
toss to our neighbor, and that is all.

FELL TO THE GROUND.
A Terrible Accident Befa1ls a Lady While
at Work.

Rock HILL, S. c., May 16.-An un-
usually sad accident occurred at the home
of Mr.. Fred Mobley yesterday afternoon.
Mrs. Mobley was engaged in driving nails
in one of the columns of the upper veranda
for the purpose of trailing a vine, and
while thus employed the banister against
which she was leaning gave way. Mrs.
Mobley fell head foremost to the ground,
a distance of over eighteen feet. No per-
son was near to render any assistance,
and when Mr.. MobleY returned home
from the store, he saw the apparently
l~ifeless form of his wife lying or the
ground, with her little four-year- old son
crying and vainly endeavoring to raise
his mothers head to his tiny lap. Mrs.
Mobley's skull was fractured in the fall
and it is not. thought that she can posi-
bly, survive.
