A Mixture That Won't Mix.

In party principles the Populists
and the Republicans are opposing
forces. When the Populists pledge
their allegiance to their party, with
low tariff, free silver, ownership of
railroads and sub-treasury schemes,
and the Republicans pledge their al
legiance to their party, for high pro-
lection and Capitalization of power,
and then both of them select the same
candidates, how are they going to
reconcile and harmonic matters ? Is
there any fight for principle in this
combination? Is it not throwing
principle to the wind ? Can any self
respecting man vote for such an I'M
holy couglomeration

WINSTON TOBACCO MARKET
The Tobacco JourD ais Review for tn
Week Ending Sept 22nd.


Week Ending Sept 22nd-
The leaf receipts continue rather
light, the old crop being about ex-
hausted and very little of the new yet
ready for the market. The small
quantity of new offered thus far
shows good color, decided improve
ment over last year, and it is also bet
ter in quality and larger in size. The
demand is such that good prices are
reasonably certain.
We learn from the farmers that
their cures have been very sue
cessful, and they will be able to meet
the cry for good stock this year.
From half to two-thirdS of the crop
has been already cured in this section
and farther east the housing is com
pleted. About all danger from DAM
age by frost is over SO far as this State
is concer ned.
Business in manufactured tobacco
for the past week was very good, and
the sales for the first three weeks Of
September almost equal those of the
entire month last year. Been large
increase in cigarette shipments.

WASHINGTON, Nov, 2o.-During the
recent strikes many railroads applied to
the government for protection and
troops were placed on trains and along
the disturbed portions OF their routes.
Now the companies who availed them
selves of troops for the protection OF
their property are fling bills with
the war department for the trans.
portation of the soldiers, whoss,
chief duty was to keep their lines opel
and guard their proprty. Nothing, it
ia asserted, was said about charging
for carrying troops at the time they
were asked for and it was supposed
that the roads would trans
port them free OF cost
az their services were chiefly
needed to support the traffic of the
roads. This, however, Is not the case
and the railroad companies now want
pay for carrying the men who protected
their property. The war department
opposes the payment of the chnrges
and it is likely that 1t will contest the
claims in the courts.
