Are out of the question when tor
tured and disfgured with Eczema.
1t is the cause of more intense
suffering than all other skin diseases
combined.
Tender babies are among It's most
numerous victims.
They are often born with it.
Most remedies and the best physi-
clans generally fail even to relieve.
If CUTICURA did no more than
cure Eczema, it would be entitled to
the gratitude of mankind.

A single application is often suffi-

Economy in Sending out Seed to Help the
Gamblers on the Products of Labor.
CONCORD, n. c., Dec. Goth, '94.
EDIT TAUCASIAn:
1t is worthy Of being noted by the
farmers that while Cleveland and
Morton propose to save $350,000 to
the government by stopping the is
suing of seeds and agricultural doc
uments free, they propose to take
this money and hire crowd of CEN
sus takers to obtain an accurate
statement of the number of acres
planted in cotton, in corn, in wheat
&c, also the numbers of bales of cot
ton, IN the hands of the farmers,
the number of bushels of wheat un-
sold &c. In other words the govern
ment proposes to expend this
amount of money and to compel the
farmers to tell in the spring how
much cotton they have on hand,
how much they have planted &c.
1t is to be presumed that the specu-
latOrs wish more reliable information
than they at present obtain by the
estimate plan, in order that
they may pile up bigger profits by
gambling in the products of the
farmers toll. Certainly the farmers
cannot be benefited by such stats
tics. The change therefore is simply
another piece of contempt for the
agricultural classes and a party
scheme to please the class who
fought the Anti-Optlon Bill.

The Attorney Generals Report.
News and Observer.

The biennial report of the Attor-
ney General is now in press and will
be out Jan. 1st. This is Mr.. Os-
borne's first report. The statistics
of the Office are interesting. Crime
has increased largely among the col
ored race in the last two years, es-
pecially in larceny and assault upon
women, but there has been decrease
of capital crimes against women.
Justice Walter Clark in an article
in The Forum sometime ago stated
that there were twice as many lynch
ings as there were legal executions
in North Carolina during the two
years ending July 1st. The report
confirms his statement.
1t will show that during the BIZ
ennium there were three legal execu-
tons, an increase of one, and eight
lynchings, an increase of six. At
the time Judge Clark made the state
ment it was widely disputed.
There were Is, 53S criminal actions
disposed of in the two fiscal years
ending July l, 1894, an increase of
1896 over the two years previous.
in all crimes except rape there was
marked increase.
Either North Carolina jailers are a
careless set or our Jail birds are re-
markedly clever and scheming, for
the report shows there have been
sixty-eight escapes.
In the warrants every variety of
occupation is embraced. Among
the curious callings found in the list
are loaferess, wife, dead-beat. music
agent, railroader, swamper, nothing,
bussman, tramp, loafer, bad-boy and
moonshiner. Some of these occur
several times in the roll.
Only the statistical portion of the
report has been completed.

THE FEDERATION OF LABOR.

ters to be Kemofsd from New York City
to Indianapolis.
DENVER, Colo, Dec. 20.-The
14th annual session of the Fedora
ton of Labor has been in session
here since the 18th.
President Gomper's annual report,
which was submitted, contains near
ly 5000 words. He complimented
the organization upon being able to
preserve its existence during the re-
cent adverse circumstances. Refer
ing to the ccal miners strike, he said
125, coo men were out for eight weeks
and yet there was hardly dearth
of coal. Considering this, the estab-
lishment of a minimum rate Of
wages was a victory. He defended
the action of the Federation in re-
gard to the A. r. U. strike by the
assertion that Mr.. Debs' proposition
submitted to them was virtual ac-
acknowledgement that the strike was a
failure. President Cleveland's action
at that time was severely censured.
Secretary Chris Evans submitted
his report of the finances and numer-
ical strength of the federation. The
receipts from sources, including a
balance, November l. 1893, of ST.
l77.44, were stated at $22, 493.87.
The expenditures were given at
$17,3O1.08, including $3,575. "a do
mated to the sustenance of striking
unions. Five hundred dollars of
this was given to the Debs defence
fund.
There is a balance of $5,191.79,
which is less than at any time since
1890.
Addresses were made by John
Burns of England and other promi-
nent reformers.
The convention decided to move
headquarters from New York. The
cities of Washington, Brooklyn,
Detroit and indianapolis were placed
in nomination. Indianapolis was
selected by majority vote.
The vote stood: Indianapolis, l.
$50; Washington, 929.
The election of officers was the
last order of business. Samuel
Gompers, of New York, and John
Mcbride, of Columbus, President of
the United Iron Workers, were placed
in nomination. The vote stood:
Mcbride, 1,l62; Gompels, 1908.

AN INSULT TO THE SOUTH.
A Democratic AdEinistration Inststs on
Changing Appomattox to Surrender.
Washington Post

We perceive with sorrow and
amazement that the Post Office De-
partment is determined to consum-
mate the blunder involved in chang
ing the post-office name of Apo
mattox to that of surrender. 1t is
change which the people most in
terested unanimously oppose and de-
plore; it is a change not at all neces-
sary from any conceivable point of
view; it is a change obnoxious to pro-
priety and good taste. We do not
believe that the most furious of the
professional Union veterans-Fair-
child or Foraker, or any of the rest,
would insist upon it, for, with all
their nonsense in politics. Fairchild
and Foraker were fighting men in
war times, and fighting men do not
seek the humiliation of those over
whom they have triumphed IN fair
field. The Post-office Department,
however, has decreed that the change
must be made, and, for the present
at least, we suppose the change will
stand. We repeat, nevertheless. that
the decision astonishes and grieves
US.
The Richmond Dispatch is quite
right in saying that the people of
Appomattox should keep up the
movement of protest and agitation.
We do not believe that this unfortu-
nate and oppressive arrangement will
be perpetuated. The old Appomat-
tox has the first and only right to
the name, and that right will yet be
recognized. Let the people continue.
through their representatives in
Congress, by appeal to the good sense
and chivalrous feeling of the Ameri-
can people, and by every other legitl-
mate and potent means; 20 protest
against the indignity and the injus-
tice that have been put upon them.
They will win in the end, we devoutly
hope and confidently believe.

A DISTINCTION WITH A DIFFERENCE


Vance Was Right But the Democratic
Papers are WrOng---This Party is not
Immortal, But the Rule ofthe People Is.
Permit me- to "call a halt" upon
these Democrats and Democratic
editors, who have taken up the dy-
ing words of the immortal Vance,
Democracy is immortal" and are
making thereof sort of slogan for
the future. Tread Marshal AllisOn's
account wherein he related the oc
casion of Vance's uttrance, and no
one, who will carefully read the
words that preceded, can fail to per-
ceive that instead of declaring that
the Democratic party is immortal,
his whole soul was stirred with lndlg-
nation against the oppression of the
people by the leaders of his party.
Democracy and the Democratic
party, so called, are by no means
Synonymous terms. Democracy
is compounded of two great words
meaning, the people rule, and it was
in this general sense that Vance
used the word when he said, Demo
cracy is immortal" Vance was
right, Democracy is immortal"
When one party ceases to carry out
the wishes of the people, the people
will finally get topether and rule the
"ring " The Peoples party is simply
the result of that inevitable law that
the people must rule. To these
chorus singers we would commend
ever memorable declaration of
Vance, which may now be, consider
ed as prophetic. 1T will not be
many months until ajority of the
party will walk out of itself leaving
behind nothing but Wall Street and
a smell of birthstone"
