A FATAL FAT HAND,-At Los IN
peIes or Saturday four aces ard a j k r
killed a tough, hearty Yutna I@dioa
named Or;s.a a. QuahGc in the count
5ail This is not the first time That four
aces have brought about a tragedy, la
probably the first time that it has been
caused just this way.
Ouahue was one of Chief Mi9uc S
band of rebellious Indians who, witt
their leader, have beeu in the county
iail for month or so awaiting thcii
rial on charge Of assaulIing school
teacher on the reservation. QGahu'
was a pretty good Indian and Was al
lowed considerable liberty. He became
acquainted with the turnkey and being
a ioIly fellow, was made Il sort OF com
1ade b. the petty officials.
That evening Quabue was playing
game of poker with Walter Scott, :ei-
low prisoner. Scott dealt the cards
and Quahue picked up his hand. !,
was pat one. Quabue looked at his
cards and stretched out his hand to
raise the ante, when Scott was startled
at seeing his fellow players face change
n a ghastly way. He swayed i'll hi
hair few seconds, and fell owe. on
stone floor dead. An attempt was
70 give him medical care, hut ii
navaiing, aud the doctor pro,
d it case of bursting Il diced
eading to the a0rta.
ctator noticed that the Iuoian,
though dead. still clutched his cards in
his hand, and on eytricating them from
his death grip they were found to con
sist of four aces and the joker. Quahuo
evidently thought he had five aces, and
1t was more joy than he could stand.

A careful study of the facts brought
to light by these six hundred reports
are more alarming than would at first
appear. They are the anaWars cf only
six hundred indiyidMa sns aged in
productive labor hiring help, while
we know that there are in the United
States more than 600, 900 branches of
industry employing help and paying
weekly or daily wages. If the reports
from six hundred only, reveal such a
startling state of affairs, what would
report from 600, 900 reveal9
So far as this ''blue census goes, it
shows that a decrease in labor of 81
per cent and decrease in the amount
of weekly wages paid for help, 69b per
cent.
But startling as these figures are,
they fall far short of the real truth,

The business of raising hops is be
coming an important industry in the
State Of Washington The profits
realized are extraordinary to the East

Of The crop in the Sunnyeide valley of
Eastern Washington this fall is giving
employment to over 5. 600 men, women
and children who make holiday Of
the work. The yield Of full bearing
field is from 1900 to $500 pounds per
acre. a five to ten acre field is about
the average size, but one farmer, Mr.
Fleming, has 80 acres under hops in
the Sunnyside valley near the new
fruit and hop raising town of May
l. took 50 pickers to harvest the crop
which is baled and shipped to London

EDITORIAL SUGGESTIONS.

The wise farmer will now join the
lance, attend the MEETINGS and in
owe both mind and pocket book.
Have you provided shelter for your
)ck this winter9 By giving them
mfortable quarters, you will save
ID and hav. the satisfaction Of know
that you are a humane man.
Winter will soon be here. 1t is i'm
rtant that you attend to your fruit
ees, vines and strawberry plants.
otect the young trees and vines 50
ey will get through without freezing.
By this time many farmers will have
thered the bulk of their crops. Every
y between now and Christmas should
utilized in breaking your land. 4
Us blowing done now is worth two
ne in March.
It is generally believed that pork
III be high for a year or two at least.
rmers in the cotton belt should pre-
re for this by taking steps to raise
1ur own meat, at least, for sale. You
mot afford to raise cotton and buy
eat, rorn or -four.
The Gairymen of Illinois are not feel
gp3aasantIy over the States refusal
give the State association the paltry
N asked for. The producer always
ids it difficult to get recognition from
e government. The monopolies and
m6lers have no trouble at all in that
rectiOn.
Start the children to school just as
rly as possible. Every school com
tteeman and parent should visit the
no0l house and see that it is comfort
le and that the teacher is doing his
ty. Some people would not allow
cir cattle to receive as little attention
they give their children while at
lOOl.
There are two things we think our
'mers ought to take special interest
more fruit and more poultry. The
3 and chicken business of North
rolina is immense, but you don't
}lize much profit. If you are a mem
:of live Alliance and will write to
II. Worth, Raleigh, you will learn
to make poultry and eggs profit

With Friphtful Effect

With Frightful Effect
Mr.. EDITOR The American EcOnO-
mast, Vol. -, No. IA, for October 9th,
1898, and published in New York in
the interest Of Democratic Republican
tariff protection, is in the habit of talk
ing q census bi-annually Of the value,
number, and progress of American
projected industries, &c. This Tariff
League, has its sub leagues organized
in every State and is we'll equipped
with facilities for obtaining informa
tion on all subj cts coming within its
scope of work, by having regular and
and we'll Informed correspondents in
every State. The members of this
League are quite all protectionists, and
anti free silver men.
The results Of the last census taken
by this Association declares some
alarming facts, and shows to what ex
tent the late action of Congress in its
efforts to reach a single gold standard,
has ffected productive labor in forty
one States:
The reports from six hundred leagues
embrace
F8Imars- "a reports
Farm implement manufact0ries-1O
reports.
Boiler and machinery-15 reports.
Cotton and cotton fabric manufac
tories-2l reports.
Furniture manufactories-3 reports.
Paper manufactures reports.
Hardware manufactures 3 reports
Woolen manufactOries-76 reports.
These reports, like the above, EN-
brace all other branches Of productive
industry, even to the manufacture tf
buttons, and every branch where hired
help can be utilized
Each report gives the number of
hands employed for the week ending
November 5th, 1892, and the weekly
wages paid; also the number employed
September %, 1898, after the House
repealed the Sherman law, and the
weekly wages paid in each branch.
The report in detail is too lengthy for
your paper, as 1T would take five pages
in tabulated form to present it; we will
therefore content ourselves with pre-
senting the result Of the enquiry in as
concise shape as space will alIow.
The following table is arranged in
as concise shape as the result of these
reports will admit; and at the same
time show the destructive effects of the
late action of Congress upon the busi-
ness cf these forty one States. The
Only great surprise in the matter Is,
why $4,000 of people will quietly sub
NIT to such a national outrage:

GRAND ALLIANCE RALLY AT
VIRGILINA, VA

the Atlantic and Danville Rail way,
located lust on the border of Granville
county, n. G., and Halifax county,
Va, was, on the 28th Of October, the
scene Of a great gathering of Alliance
men, and their wives and daughters,
from four border counties Of two States.
While Granville, Person and Halifax
were about equally represented, Neck
lenburg was not far behind in numbers
T1e crowd was variously estimated at
from twelve to fifteen hundred, but the
writer is sure there was not less than
one thousand.
It was confidently expected that the
Hon. Marion Butler would be present
to address the people, but to the regret
OF hundreds he failed to put in an ap-
pearance.
Florence Avenue Baptist Church,
itqt IN Granville, and a few hundred
yards from the railroad station, having
a seating capacity Of about four hun
dred, was nearly filled with ladies,
number of whom assisted by some gen
tlemen, headed by our music professor
Humphries, furnished the assemblage
with rare and excellent music
In the forenoon short speeches were
made 1y brethren Amis King and
Gentry, each of whom talked earnestly
and enthusiastically in behalf Of the
farmers cause. These speeches were
attentively listened to and warmly ap
plauded. The hour for dinner having
arrived, the great throng at once re-
paired to the I2ng table in the grove,
which was fully and bountifully sup
piled with the good things which re
fresh and comfort the inner man.
Whole hogs, beef, mutt n, fowl, cakes,
pies, pickle and fruits were the order
of the day, and there was an abund
ance for all.
At the sound of music, the crowd re-
assembled at, and in the church build
ing, when DR.. VIM. II Merritt of Per
son, our State Senator, was introduced.
Taking his stand in the church door
way in order to address the immense
crowd, both in and outside the build
ing, DR.. Merritt made a forcible and
telling speech Of about one hours
length, in which he made many strong
points in behalf of the Alliance. The
good doctor is very popular, and was
rewarded by the ladies with numerous
boquets Of beautiful flowers, as we'll as
the most hearty applause from the au-
dience.
The close Of this speech finished the
Alliance programme for the day, and
the great crowd, both male and female,
adjourned a few hundred yards to
Halifax county, to hear a political
.spaech from the Hon. Mr.. Stovall, of
that county, in behalf of the Populist
candidates for Governor and members
of the legislature. Mr.. Stovall is evi-
dently inthearty sympathy with the
people, as he was applauded to the echo
throughout his entire. speech of more
than an hours length, in which he
made a most admirable plea for the
free coinage of silver and fair and
honest elections. -
This was, altogether, 'big day" for
the Alliance of both Granville and Per
son, and the brethren we're greatly en-
couraged and strengthen. We are not
only holding the fort" but adding new
racr11its gO the Order.
The masses are evidently in deep
sympathy with the farmers movement
and their organization, hereabouts, is
constantly growing more compact and
determined. COUNTRYMAN.

From this exhibit it appears that
nearly one-half of the total weekly
wages reported as paid cut last Novem
ber, was in the Western States, next in
order being the Middle States, with
New England ranking third, while the
largest shrinkage in wages is in the
Western States.
1t is the saddest commentary upon
