Col. VIM. Hill, Of Faison, de-
iivered a good speech here the
l30th ultimo. Tn Colonel is a
Peoples Party man and his ar
gument in support of that party
is strong aud irrefutable. He
said the greatest and most i'm
portant Of all questions now az
itating the minds of the people
was finance, and the only hope
OF ever getting financial reform
was in the Peoples Party. That
the old parties were both in ia
vor of the present system Of
banking and a gold standard.
He demonstrated beyond doubt
that il we follow the so-called
New England Democracy we
will never get relief, and that
the F. rec bill was only a scare
crow to distract the attention Of
the people from the money ques-
ton. He also showed the de-
ceptivcness of the tariff. Mr..
Hill is we'll posted upon the
great questions now confronting
us and we hope his speech done
good. l only give this brief
synopsis of the Colonel's speech
to let the public know that he
has been with us and that his
speech was much appreciated
by re ormers in this section, and
we hope he will visit us again,
as he PROMISED to d. between
nov ind November.

land? How can he support him

How can he harmonize the two?

ment Of Mrs. Eddie HAYES, Civ

an Episcopal church, was a sue
