REDUCED T RATES.

The Chairman of the Peoples party
Executive Committee has secured the
following reduced hotel rates for the
State Convention at Raleigh, August
1st:
Marlborough House, 81. SO per day.
Park Hotel, corner Martin and Nc
Dowell streets, 81 Is per day.
Florence Hotel, corner Fayetteville
and Cabarrus streets, rs cents per day.
Harrison House, corner Wilmington
and Davie streets, Is cents per day.
Mrs. Rays, Fayetteville street, oppo-
site Florence Hotel, rs cents per day.
All Of the above are first class hotels
and boarding houses, centrally located,
and in consideration of the fact that
they make a considerable reduction
from their regular rates for this occa-
sion, the delegates are requested to 90
to some one of them. IF the capacity
IS not great enough, other places will
be secured, equally good, at not over
81 per day.
See reduced railroad rates elsewhere.

the Shelf--Major Bilkins in a Tur-
rible Fix--His Hart is Broke.
B.-"Hello! Mr.. Editor"
R.-"Good morning, MI. Bilkins. Is
it hot enough for youT'
B.-''Don't try to spring a chestnut
o n me. I'm not feelin' in a humor ter
be bothered this morning, I'm in a
turible fix"
R.-'What is it now9 Has Mrs. Bill
kins left you againY"
B.-"No. I wish she would leave
me, though, fer she amt nc cumfort
mol conserlashun when she IL at home.
She il a anarkist, a communist, a rebel,
q trater ter the dimykrat party. I'm
lookin' fer her ter blow me up any
mint with dinamight or SPONTANEOUS
combustion or sumpthin' of that kind"
R.-"You are as timid as an old
woman. You ought to be blown sky
high with some sort of an explosive,
for that is the only way you will ever
get any higher. Tell me why you are
go sad"
B.-"My heart il broke inter forty
pieces. I'm ruint fer life. I'd ruther
be in my grave.than ter live here in
this fix. The dymakratick party has
gone back on the Alliance"
R-"Why that is nothing new. The
party press and most of the leaders
have bitterly opposed tina organization
from the first. The Republican leaders
and press have been just as bitter,
especially in the North and West. Old,
driedup, corrupt parties always oppose
anything new, provided it is a good
thing. The Alliance is an aggressive
educational organization and has done
more to pull the mask off traitorous old
party leaders and expose fraud and
corruption than any dozen organiza-
lions. It has a great and grand mis-
sion before it yet along this and other
lines. 1t has not done half enough
yet. If there was any doubt about the
bitter antagonism of the Democratic
party to the Alliance the action of the
last legislature ought to have removed
the scales from your eyes"
Bob, blast the last legislature.
I'm talkin' erbout the present. I see
they are defeatin' Alliance demykrats
fer offs an that cooks my goose. They
have defeated Congressman Grady an
they are goin' ter defeat Alexander an
lots more Of them. I'm an Alliance
Demykrat an I don't stand no more
chanse fer Kongress than my bay mule
Kit. I'll bet they are done with ALI
ance Demykrats. They did up Viii,
liams an put in Settle. a Republican,
in the 5th districk two years ago.
They will be after putin down Scar
borough, Bob Vance, Beddingfield,
Governor Carr, Capt. Coke, Branch,
Kurnel John Robinson, Wharton
Green, A. Leazar and lots more ov us.
The Wall street Dymakrats hes got a
spite at awl ov us. Oh! my hart is
broke. I'm ruint forever. I wouldn't
ARE if Betsy would blow me up with
dynamite. Ibeleeve I'll go ter bed an
stay a month. The bright sunshine an
the flowers make me sadder. l can't
bear to hear the birds singing. Our
old red rooster keeps CROWN an I'm
goin' ter shoot him. I must be in a
quiet place. Oh! me. I don't know
whut I wuz born fer emmy way. If 1
die say sumthin' Mise erbout me in the
paper. Goodbye"

HkRRTNGToN, Dec. l9.--Thc failure of NJ.
II. barrow Il TO. in Philadelphia yester-
day, has involved James Reed here. Frank
HOey 1T Greenwood and one other firm.
These men are canned goods packers and
had consigned their goods to barrow u
Co., but by this firm failing Reed was
unable to meet his obligations and has
failed for $4,000
Hoey is n man OF comparatively little
means, and if lie is unable to get amy
money from barrow he will be unable to
meet his bills for tomatoes grown for his
factory and will be compelledto make an
assignment.
still another firm is reported as having
failed owing 10 the failure OF barrow.
Darruw-& Go. are extensively engaged in
handling canned goois. These packers
had shipped the goods to barrow, Iii some
cases their entire pack, and were awaiting
their pay for the goods, but owing to the
way barrow failed, Reed IIoey and j.
u. Counselmen of Milton. it is stated will
not get anything for their seasons pack,
and Reed was forced to assign.
The farmers will be losers to the amount
of many thousand dollars. 1t is custom
are with canned goods packers to pay for
the goods grown by the farmer on the
first of each year. The goods were shipped
