IT WOULD DO GOOD.

1t seems to the SENTINEL that
some Southern State ought to pro-
vide Tor sending an intelligent and
affable colored man to the Worlds
Fair where he could explain to thous-
aRds of people the improved and sat,
isiactory condition ofhis race in these
States. He might tell those whose
minds have been poisoned against
Southern people by rabid partizans
that the Southerners are indulgent
employers of negro labor; that in
times of trouble these men have been
their friends and that in politics the
Southern Democrats guarantee the
peace of ali law-abiding citizens of
the South. He could truthfully tell
the Northerners that these States
are doing great deal for the educa-
ton Of his race and providing for
their future welfare. We believe the
North Carolina Legislature might
wisely contribute c few hundred dol
lars to this end.

About the Repeal OF the Alliance Char

Correspondence of the Sentinel.I
Bellows CREEK, N. c., Feb. 20
The past week has been a good one
for stripping and packing tobacco,
and, notwithstanding the bad roads,
large quantities of the weed have
been hauled off. Farmers are getting
anxious about their plant beds, but
IL the wind continues to blow day or
two longer the land will do to burn.
Some of the Alliancemen down here
are somewhat stirred up over the bill
introduced in the Legislature to re-
peal the charter of the State Farmers
Alliance of North Carolina. They say
they are opposed to its being re-
pealed.
A very exciting accident befell one
day recently. As he was returning
from Winston his horse got scared at
something on the side of the road and
commenced to run backwards. Before
Mr.. Flynt could dismount the horse
ran backwards and fell into cut on
the Norfolk & Western Railroad,
about fifteen feet deep. Mr. Flynt
received several very Dad bruises, but
fortunately no bones were broken.
Master Jessie Young, who ran away
from home one day last week, has re-
turned.
Miss eliza Taylor was married to
Mr.. Israel LinviIl last Tuesday, the
18th. The young man eloped with his
bride while the old man was from
home.

DOGS VS.. SHEEP,
A Correspondent Writes on this and
Other Interesting Topics.
,or-csnon.ience Of The sentinel.l

Correspondence Of The Sentinel.I
MANA, N. c., Feb. 90 News items
are very scarce around these parts,
but we are truly glad to see the
weather take on a change-for the
farmers are getting very restless
Much tobacco has been stripped out
and ready for market. The roads,
however, are in such an awful condi-
tion it is almost impossible to pull an
empty wagon over them. But few
plant beds have been burned here
abouts. The farmers are getting so
little for their last years crop, they
are very Indifferent about burning
any. The prospect for an increased
acreage in the corn crop is very good,
as all whom we have talked with say
they aim to put out a larger crop than
before, and less tobacco.
If we could only get Legislature
that had the courage and backbone to
levy heavy tax on the many hounds
and other worthless dogs throughout
the country, so the farmers could
keep sheep, they would be better off
and could improve lands. In one
mile square here you can find one hum
dred and fifty-two worthless hounds,
and not half dozen sheep. That's
the way to improve lands and build up
a section, is it not There is more
money in the sheep business for the
amount of capital invested than in
any line OF stock on farm, and we
have hundreds of acres of land here
growing up in broom sedge and briars
that would support big numbers of
sheep. Tax the dogs and give the
farmers who believe in sheep chance
to raise and keep them.
The new county question is being
discussed in lively order and the
people around here do not seem to be
pleased over it. The tax for the new
jail and county farm for the poor has
money. Very few have been able up
to, this time to pay off their taxes.
Wheat here on the Yadkin is not
looking very well. The crop was sown
very late, owing to the dry fall, and
the grain had but little chance to get
start. Much of it, too, froze out;
yet should the spring open oct early
we look forward to a good yield. The
farmers will seed down good spring
oat crop, if weather keeps so they
can.
Mr.. d. L. Shore is putting in steam
power to run his distillery, and has
his big -four and grist mill in fine rum
ming order. He has has made quite a
fortune out of corn-liQuor.
Mr.. W. w. Poindexter has lumber
ready and will at once enlarge his
dwelling house on the "Fulp farm
1t is the hard times and scarcity of
money that keeps down the improve
ments in the country. 1t is human
nature to want to live in a nice house,
but it takes the cash to build them.
We are pleased to see you are push
ing the hotel question with so much
vigOr. 1t is one thing your growing
city needs far more than court
house. Mt. Airy is very much in adj
vance of you, in that line, and the
longer the question remains upon pa
per, the wOrs for the city.
We are also very much pleased to
ySee THE SENTINEL dealing so fairly
with the country. 1t is very much
liked throughout the section for it's
fairness and progressive spirit.

JUDGE GRESHAM.

A New York paper says that the
appointment of Walter Q. Gresham
as Secretary Of States goes back for
a precedent to the very foundation
Of the Republic when Washington,
himself Fe,ieralist, appointed as
his Secretary of State such a pro-
nounced anti-Fe deralist as Thomas
Jefferson. 1t is also in line with
Abraham Lincoln's appointment of
Edwin NJ. Stanton, the Attorney
General in Buchanan's Cabinet, to
the then all important position of
Secretary OF War. Surely no prece
dent can be better than Washing
tons and no Radical can object to a
policy hallowed by Lincoln. More
over, the Republican party, under
Harrison and Mckinley, had moved
away from the ideas of many Repub-
licans and the Judge belonged prop
erly in the Democratic party even
before he gave his great Influence to
Cleveland and helped to win our
great victory.

HIS FIRST VISIT.
Some of the Impressions Made on the
Mind of a Stranger.
Correspondence of The sentinel.1

Correspondence of The Sentinel.7
Cross ROADS, Feb. 1S.-It was the
pleasure of your correspondent to Wis
it Winston-Salem last week for the
first time. And it may not be amiss
for me in this public way to express
some of my impressions while in the
Twin-City. WinSton'S most noticea-
Bile feature is its new appearance.
There are no old time ''landmarkS.' -
makeup of the busy hustling city in
dictate Enthusiastically its phenomenal
growth. It's excellent thOroughfares
and admirable carrying facilities; it's
factories, business push and energy
show what modern enterprise has to
do with building a city. Among the
many things you have to be proud of
are the following: The Graded schools,
the Salem Academy, the mammoth
tobacco factory of r. j. Reynolds &
Co., and others, the tobacco ware
market house.
But one thing thou lackest," Where
is the hotel? Winston needs two or
three hotels. Till you build good
hotel you lack one of the compon ent
elements of large community. just
now the city has MANNED look, but
''SanchO will not down" and "BarkiS
is within" And ere the snow and
sleet of another winter roll around,
Winston will stand again robed in
twice her former glory.
Business at Cross Roads is some
what dull. Our merchants are doing
a fair business, but money is scarce.
But little tobacco has been sold yet
This has been the best week since the
crop was housed, for handling tobac-
co, and the absence of farmers from
town show they are busy in their
barns. The next question is, when
will the roads be fit to haul tobacco?
Just now a boat would do about as
well as wagon, as the roads are past
''fording."
No farm work has been done yet,
and if the ground hog gives US five
weeks more of such weather, there
will be none soon.
Cupid is still among US. Mr.. James
+. May exchanges single bleSsedness
for conjugal bliss and Miss Alice Gar
ner is the prize.
Mr.. Houston Cranflll returned to
Indiana last week.
'fhe school at this place began last
Monday with good prospects.
There is much sickness in the COM
munity. The malady appears to be
lagrippe.
Mr.. w. d. Baity is preparing to
build an addition to his residence of
Broad street.
Success to the SENTINEL.
