me. ] would write To him but don't
know his postoffice. He said
in "A speech he made here at
Richlahds last fall. that if
the Democrats got in power We could
have "A State Bank here time enough
to run our crops ON this spring. !
am a Democrat and believe what
Capt Coke said, but these Third
party fellows said it was lie. and
are laughing at us fellows about il.
| want you to attend to this right
away for me a. | am tired Of their
making fun Of US. The reason
write to you yours is the only paper
| see circulating around much since
the election. | used to get the North
Carolinian," but guess it was only
Il campaign paper as | have not seen
II since the election. We fellows are
cramped, we sold our cotton seed
this spring and spent the money,
thinking we could borrow money
from State Banks this spring like
Capt. Coke said.
Say, Mr. Butler how is the Ali
ance getting along! You know |
heard you make Il speech at Rich
lands last year, and thought it was
a powerful speech, but some Of our
people said ii wasn't much. But
know in reason the Alliance is good
thing for us poor fellows, because
Capt. Coke said he was a member
and it was a grand organization.
| know if Capt. Coke lives up about
Raleigh he got mighty mad when the
Legislature tried to repeal the ALI
ance Charter If he had been there
with his heavy voice and told them
fellows, that didn't know any better,
they would have stopped, even if
Bob Vance had told them to go on.
Is Mr.. Bob Vance brother to Old
Zeb! | know in reason he amt, for
| heard a man say that Old Zeb sign
ed a pledge to carry out the demands
of the Alliance in Congress two wears
ago if they would send him back TO
the Senate.
Have they reduced the tariff yet?
| heard a fellow say they had, and
that Mr.. Cleveland was going to call
Congress together to pass free silver.
That looks like Capt. Coke told the
truth. Now | reckon these Third
party fellows will feel mighty bad
when this is done and they was not
asked to help.
They say DR.. Cy Thompson has
gone in the western part of the State
to wake up the Alliance He is a
wasp, and ! tell you if that aIr. Bell
gets III his way he will pizen him
sure.
Everybody has right to do as they
please. AS for me, | say hurrah for
Cleveland and the unterrifed, de-
structable Democratic party.
Yours truly,
SIMON p. d. JONES.

CHAPTER |.
THE MESSAGE.

The sun had just sunk behind the
hills, leaving Evans Gulch in n soft
shadow and its prominent citizens in a
brisk discussion on the merits of an old
map which Sheriff Woodruff had pro-
duced to confirm one Of his statements.
An old map il looked To be: greasy and
marked by the fingers of husty pros
lectOrS; almost a. ancient in appearance
as AN Egyptian papyrus that had lain
pressed closely TO the bosom OF mummy
for ages. Yet the sheriff hal sworn by
1t for years, and he dared TO produce it
and lay it side by side with one OF the
governments newest, that was almost
as unintelligible from its plexus of red,
blue and green lines, dots and specks.
squares and circles, figures and names.
The sheriff proudly stated that his
map was made in thirty-seyen, a fact
that, for him, was proof of its virtues,
for he believed that map, like whisky,
gathered a virtue with years. 1t showed
vast vacant spaces marked ''Gnexplored
territory" and in spite Of the fact that
the chimneys in Leadville smoked in the
distance, three miles away, where his
reliable map showed an arid region he
still affirmed his faith in it, He had his
supporters, three or four, who swore by
the sheriff, and they stoutly backed him
in his assertion that there's just as
many unexplored tracts in this ERE
country as ever-Or nearly as many
anyhow" Gale Whitley had the ma
jority with him as with fluent gestures
and few words he spread the new map,
gaudy, butterfylile, on the faro table
and said scornfully, Put your thumb
on a spot where there's no names of
hills, towns, rivers or camps!" The
sheriff, whose thumb was none of the
| smallest, would have found it a difficult
task even had he essayed it, but he
would not deign to bestow glance upon
the circus chart as he called the paint
ed thing.
All Evans Gulch knew what this dis
cussion was about. 1t was an old sub
ject, and the new map had been pro-
cured as a clincher to Gales oft repeated
assertions that "the whole country was
explored, and no use talkin." a few of
the least interested stood on the out

Importance of organization. | deem

through that organization we can at

THE PEOPLES PARTY ON THE TARIFF
QUESTION:

QOCO tON
l. is notan unusual thing to strike
man who is so narrow between the
eyes as to accuse the Peoples party
of favoring Il high protective tariff
and give as their reason for so charg-
ing that sit is fighting the Demo-
cratic party" We pity such a man,
for we regard him as what we will
call a PEONoGRAPH man-only talks
back what is talked into him, and
some demagogue has been >stuffing
him. Our position on the tariff,
was fully explained in the last cam
paign, and by the reform press
throughout the land since. We ia
vor an income tax as a means of rails
ing revenue, and claim that it is the
only just plan for raising revenue.
We condemn a high protective tariff
as wrong, and we also condemn Il tar
| 1T for all revenue under existing cir
cumstances. So long as the Demo-
cratic party stands committed to that
system Of taxation as means of
raising all revenue to run the govern
ment and follow their extravagant
way of voting away the peoples mon
ey, there is no difference between a
tariff for protection for projections
sake, and tariff for revenue which
must be so high that it will incident
ly protect. Let lis have an income
tax law passed and enforced, and we
will then be in a position to abolish
the tariff system of taxation, land great
lyreduce 1t. Until we can have that
law we are waiting, patiently waiting
for Mr.. Cleveland and his party to
reduce the tariff. We hope they
will reduce it.

RUSSIA WAR-LIKE.
Three More Infantry Divisions
for the German Frontier.

tBy Anelo-American cable 10 the Dispatch.l
LoNDoS, January 2l.-Dispatches
from Warsaw show that while the Gar
sends his son to Berlin with a diamond
diadem for the Emperors sister and
makes professions as to bis love of peace.
lie is pursuing steadily his preparations
for war.
Three divisions OF infantry nre now
breaking up their quarters in tho eau
casus, and within a few weeks will be IN
Russian Poland under the command Of
the German hating General Gourko
These three divisions, together with the
division taken to Kieff two years ago,
will make two more army corps for Rus
STA on her western border. Thus Rus
sias army within Immediate call for
fighting against Germany and Austro-
Hungary will amount to twenty-five
army corps, or an army as large as Italy
or Austro- Hungary now commands.
Neither in the Nolga district nor in
Russian Poland has the cholera disap-
peared, and hence the importation Of
troops from Saratof and Asia Minor is
likely to lead to a fresh and violent out
break of the epidemic as soon as the new
division arrives. Just why the men In
st. Petersburg who know this should
hurry on the Caucasian infantry to the
German frontier is q mystery. unless the
easy and apparently unavoidable e1pla-
nation be accepted that the Gar expects
trouble before the end of 1893.

Turkish Worlds Fair.

yAnglo-American cable to the Dispatch.l
LONDON, January 2l.-The project OF
a worlds fair at Constantinople within
the next four or five years is taking on
definite form. Selim Nickname, for
merly general director OF the national
debt, has the matter in hand. and an
nounces this week that 100000 francs
have already been guaranteed to the I'M
dertaking. The principal difficulty en-
countered by the men supporting Sellm
Melhame is the determination of the re-
dictionaries to make the fair national in
stead OF international. and the conse-
quent division of opinion among the
manufacturers and tradesmen o. the en-
pire will have, it is feared, disastrous
effect upon both plans.
