BRO. ENGLISH SAYS HE WAS
OPPOSED

Mr.. EDIToR:-I have been a member
of the Farmers Alliance of North Caro-
lima for over five years, continuously.
During that period I have never for
a moment doubted the necessity of the
organization to the wealth producing
part of our population, and the right,
fulness of its claims to recognition and
protection at the hands of lawmakers.
Was, therefore, emphatically opposed,
first, last end all the time, to any ma
terial change in charter by the last
legislature. Believing that the admin
istration of the Order was in keeping
with the letter and spirit of our charter,
I give my protest publically and pri-
vateIy against such a departure in leg
islative history.

WHERE FINE BLOOD IS FOUND

Just outside the limits of this city
you can see more fine horse blood than
on any farm south or east of Kentucky.
A visit to Capt. B. P. Williamson's
Fairview farm will convince you.
There you can gaze upon three strains
of the most famous blood Morgan"
"Hambletonian" and "Wilkes." These
horses are not all ''from the North, -"
for some of the fastest, three and four
year old colts, have been raised on that
farm in the past few years.
Among other noted animals you will
see a half sister to Nancy Hanks"
the fastest animal in the world, record
2:O4. The half sister is a beautiful bay
mare, now with foal. There r other
fine colts of various ages. "Moonyne"
and Franklin Chief" are the two finest
stations. It is worth a trip Of many
miles to see them. We are glad to note
a growing interest in the breeding of
fine stock in North Carolina. Capt.
Williamson is doing his part well. He
has recently built a private ace track
on his farm at considerable cost, said
to be the best track in the State.

CORRECTION.

Mr.. EDTToR:-Mr. Leazar was right
in saying the A. and NJ. College was
originated in the Watauga Club. Col.
Polk did valuable service, for which l
ave him due credit in the history OF
the movement which I wrote, and with
which he was SO pleased that he pub
lished it twice. The original PROPOSE,
ton made to the Watauga Club May
9Th. 1884. still exists and there can be
no doubt about the facts, You will be
doubtless glad to make this correction
in the interest of the truth of history.

WASHINGTON, May 2l.-The Infanta
Eulsla spent the first Sunday in the
United States in retirement at her hotel,
excepting brief walk, attendance upon
church and ride in the afternoon. At
$50, accompanied by her husband and
lady-in waiting, she crossed the street
from the hotel to Lafayette Park and
took short stroll. They then proceeded
to st. Matthew's Catholic Church and at
tended mass. Only the usual number of
early church-goers were present. But
few in the congregation recognized the
Infanta and party, and their entrance
and exit created but little excitement.
After the services the party were driven
to the Washington Monument through
the agricultural and Smithsonian
grounds.
During the early afternoon hours the
Infanta received callers, among them Sec
retary of State Gresham, Sir Julian
Pauncefote, British ambassador; NJ. Pate
notre, French ambassador; Admiral
Luce, Mr.. PAX Chung Yang, Corean Min
lister, and others in official and social
life. At o'clock Secretary Gresham
drove the Ipfanta and her husband to the
Soldiers Home. Tonight the Infanta,
Prince Antonio, Duke De Tamanes, Mar
chioness of Aryo Hermoss and Comman-
der Davis dined with Senior Maragua, the
Spanish Minister, at the legation. Mrs.
Cleveland tonight sent basket of white
roses to the Infanta's rooms.

Windows were broken all over the city

glass, the roar of the wind and the patter

and the Alvin Theater. During the storm
a score of runaways occurred and many

All the skylIghts in the Federal build

in torrents, flooding the building. The
cellars were flooded and many streets
were rendered impossible by debris
washed from the hills. On all the street

New YORK, May 21.-A Panama cable

has called for an extraordinary
session of Congress and appealed to
neighboring republics for assistance.
The session is convoked for Monday, the

President Sacaza declares himself die

throughout the entire republic. By this
act constitutional guarantees are sus-
pended and the country is virtually un-
der a one-man rule.
simultaneously with the issuance of
these two proclamations the President
secretly dispatched commission of three
to Corinto, Pacific coast port of Nicara-
qua, there to await the departure of
the first Pacific Mail steamer for
Guatemala, whittier they go to endeavor
to obtain the aid of that Government.
Another commission was sent by
President SacaZa to Salvador for the pur-
pose of obtaining assistance from that
republic. 1t is positively known that
Guatemala at least is in sympathy with

New York, May 81. - The Chinese
question was discussed by Rev. Madison
G. Peters this morning at the Blooming
dale Reformed Church. DIR. Peters said:
when we needed cheap labor to develop
our country we begged the Chinese come.
In 1874 our Government began to coax
them to come. Our treatment of them
has been long score, prejudice, brick
bats, taxation and robbery. The Chi
nese are no worse than the same number
of the same class Of any other nationality
in our midst. / bespeak for the Chinese
in America fair play. TheIe is no reason
why the discretionary power of the
authorities should not be used to extend
temporarily the period of registration.
The very ministers who make the most
eloquent pleas for Chinese in China will,
without protest, allow Chinese in Amer
lea to become victims of political cruelty.
If the Cinnamon had a vote our dema-
gogues in Congress would profess great
love for him, and they would go around

the world than any other nation of the
earth. The Chinese have proved them
selves to be strong intellectually and
commercially, as shown By what they
accomplished in ten years following the
war which resulted in the breaking down
of the Chinese wall of exclusion and the
admission of Christian missionaries. We
combined with European nations to
break down the Chinese wall, and now
with charming consistency we build a
wall against the Chinese. The inherent
and inalienable right Of men TO change
their homes and allegiance was recog-
nized in our famous Burlingame treaty
with China in 1868.
well, we'll, l do remember the Joy
with which the news of the signing OF
this treaty recited. By the terms of this
treaty the United States induced Chinese
to come over to our shores, and in later
years, when the hoodIums of San Fran
cisco protested against Chinese immigra-
ton, this Government, in a second treaty,
asserted that, while it could and would
regulate Chinese immigration, it would
never prohibit it. Thus have we. a Chris
tian nation, broken faith with China,
whom we in our righteousness designated
as a nation of pagans. But even if we
had the right to exclude and deport Chi
nese, we have not the power. No Act of

COLLISION AT SEA,
The Steam Schooner Whitesboro Runs
Into the State of California.

The Steam Schooner Whftesboro Runs
Into the State of California.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 21.-The steamer
State of California, bound from Portland
to this city, was run into Friday evening
at 10:27 o'clock, when about three fourths
OF a mile off Point Reyes light by the
steam schooner Whitesboro, bound from
this port for Cleone. No one was injured
in the collision, although the accident
was one of the most remarkable that has
occurred on this coast.
The steamer State of California was
struck on the starboard bow by the bow
spirit of the Whitesboro and the buIwark
plates abaft the chain-lockers penetrated.
Eight iron plates were damaged down to
the water line. The Whitesboro lost her
bowsprit and headgear The steam
schooner struck the big steamer head on
from the sea side, but backed clear of the
wreckage without further damage after
the first strike, except springing a leak,
which was easily handled by the vessels
steam pumps. AS soon as it was found
that both steamers could care for them
selves each headed for port and arrived
here safely.
Captain Ackley says that the steam
schooner, after answering his signal of
two whistles to go to port, put her helm
up and swung to starboard, striking the
State broadside. Captain Liebig claims
that the collision was due to a misunder-
standing Of signals. After the accident
the State stayed by the Whitesboro until
all danger was past. The damage to the
two vessels is estimated at about $4,000.
The State had 104 cabin passengers from
Portland and Astoria and the excitement
On board after the steamer was run down
was great. Purser Byrnes and several
other officers succeeded in quieting the
fears Of the passengers after the first
scare. Many turned out in their night
clothes, several ladies tainted and things
were very lively for a few minutes.
