Senator Vance.

CHARLOTTE, N. c., Sept. 19.-In
a letter to Mr.. Y. b. Harris, ed
itor of the Charlotte Neaos, Senator
Z. B. Vance says:
"In answer 10 your kind letter
of inquiry &c aesning pY health
and my opiu~an Of tie political
situation, l give you this brief note:
I am recovering my health slowly
but quite surely and uninterrupted
y. Every day | feel stronger. My
appetite is good, my digestion pers
feet ana I sleep ike a just nan
and 8 Democrat, This glorious
mountain air and the quiet of the
wooded highlands hare been of
inestimable benefit to me. Though
I shall most likely not be able TO
take any part in the campaign as
a speaker. l hope l shall be quite
well enough to resume ~ dutles
as Sens;or when Congress meets.
For The first time in my political
life I g, quietly at home and listen
to the distant roar OF a great conc
hict of American freemen n the
process of selecting their rulers.
To sit still and give no blow is a
novel sensation &c ne, but it nay
be that as my blood is not heated
by the strife l a soc things more
clearly and Judge them more accu-
rately; and this is my opinion of
the contest. The Democrats will
carry the State triumphantly. The
average citizen Of North Carolina
is sensible, practical and patriotic,
and Notwithstanding the present
discord and confusion in our ranks,
before he votes he will reason it
out that by voting for the Third
party candidates he will probably
help throw our State into the
hands of the negroes and scalawags
and elect a Republican President
and House of Representatives,
whilst her own cherished reforms
would be indefinitely postponed.
There is no other view a sensible
man can take. Our people will
prove equal to the occasion now as
heretofore"

Senator Hill in the Campaign.

BROOKLYN, N. Y, Sept, 10
There was a great outpouring of
Democrats in this city to night.
The Academy of Music could not
accommodate the crowd that rush
ed with frantic haste to secure
good positions from which to take
in every action of Senator David
B. Hill in the delivery of al ad-
dress that has been awaited anx>
iously by all Democrats. The Sem
ator's voice was low and claim as
he began, but gradually he warmed
up. Before q minute had passed
he had uttered a phrase that earned
wild applause This was when he
said that besc.s the Democratic
National convection st Chicago he
was a Democ:at and waa 6 Demo>
crat still. Ee said that be spoke
as a Democrat to Democrats.
Prior to Senator Hills speech
the usual resolutions were present
ed and adopted. Besides pledgiog
the support of Kings county,
Democrats, to the ticket, it at
tackled several measures advocated
by the Republicans in no niggard-
ly terms.
Senator Hills description OF
President Harrison's message as an
ingenious article, his refntation of
the statistics of Commissioner
Peck's now famous report anu his
treatmeot of the Force bill caused
perfect storms of applause.
The excitement in the audience
was noticeable as the Senator drew
towards the close Of his address.
He had spoken for over an hour
and not once had be mentioned the
name of Cleveland. The excite
ment increased as he stated that the
old guard would do it's duty and a
perfect hurricane of applause, yells
and cheers broke forth when. after
one grand phrase of the deepest
meaning he closed with the names
"Oleveland and Stevenson" The
Senator's tact and ingenious way
of the climax to his address was
recognized by his enthusiastic AUDI
fence by rising en- mass and cheer
ing him to the echo. It also furn-
ished Congressman Breckenridge,
who. followed, with theme in
which to open a most eloquent ads
dress.

In the Progressive Farmer of
Feb. %. 1883, we find these words
in one of its editorial:
There is no farmers organizas

There /. 20 necessity for the farm

like the a.;iance ant me grange,

In this extra IA contemporary
announces g. fundamental princi-
pie of the alliance. sd, 80 long as
this principle was obeyed, the ALI
ance remained intact and could
hare been a regulate in politics.
Bot by careful training, undes t.a
instruction of the Progresas.e
Farmer, many alliancemen wate
gradually led into the Third party
thus departing from the constitur
ton of the order, and defeating
the prime objects for which it was
organized. It is known that the
Progressive Farmer led in the
movement which has seriously
threatened the existence of the al
lance. It first taught alliancemen
to remain loyal to the constitution,
which prohibited them from inducte
ing politics into the alliance, and,
having ingraticated itself into fas
vor, it then began, as gradually
and cautiously to falsify its own
record and would now involve
true alliancemen into the same Inc
consistences. And all this to ad~
vance the intsrest of a few office
seekers By their fruits ye shall
know them.

SOME HARD HITTERS.
Taken From the Raleigh Chronicle.

THE Progressive Farmer will
serve no master and be ruled by no
faction, but will be true to the in
stincts, traditions and history of
the anglo-Saxon
size Farmer, Feb 10, 1886.
How about it now when you
endorse a political party which
dominates negroes to ofices
The following is an extract from
the Progressive Farmer of Des
cember LIST, 1886:
The farmers need an organiza~
ton, not to advocate or promote
political or partisan questions, but
one that will boldly use its infu-
ence upon the legislature aud Con-
gress to protect their interests.
This was the good counsel. But
when the Progressvae Farmer
went into politics, with the view
of forming a Third party, is ceased
to represent the alliance. It became
an unsafe counsellor.

In an editorial of the Progress
s5ve Farmer, April 3, 1892, these
words can be found:
"There shall not be any partisan
or sectarian test for membership
is the language of the alliance COM
stitution. W. will labor for the
education of the agricultural classes
in a strictly non-partisan spirit, is
the first clause of our declaration
of principles. W. are aware that
it has been charged that the alli-
auce is a political machine and
that l. will 60 into politics. Such
talk betrays~ ignorance of its prin-
ciples."
And when later the Progressive
Farmer undertook to make the
alliance "political machine" it
signally failed, and the Progress
siVe Farmer was left alone at the
head of q political machine of Office
seekers known as the third party.
It has turned out that the farmers
understood the principles of the
alliance, and that our ~contempors
airy did not.

Here is another extract from an
editorial in the Progressive Farmer
of March II, 1887:
"Let it be understood that the
fundamental and primary object
of the Farmers Alliance is TO i'm
prove the farmers, socially, morally,
intellectually and financially. 1t is
strictly non-sectarian and non-par-
tisan. = asks for no special favors
at the hands of the Government.

even change WITH al other inter-
ests."
Those who sla tead the Pro-
gTeasitE F@yue1- The past ff-
teen months viii hardly believe
that sentiments like the above ever
appeared in its editorial columns.
On this subject. in an editarial,
the Progressive F~agreer, Apr =,
1887, said:
"The attitude of the farmers =
