When will corn and wheat reach the
same price per bushel? Not a few
careful observers of the signs of the
times predict that before the new CEN
fury dawns, corn will reach a higher
price than wheat, which can be produc-
ed the round world over Already the
money value of this distinctively Amer
lean crop is nearly double that of the
wheat crop OF the country. AS food,
it is fast gaining high favor among the
people of the old world. 1t is easily
raised and does not exhaust the soil
and has been the surest and greatest
source of wealth for the country. The
corn belt is a limited one, considering
our immense area. Land within its
limit has never shown any permanent
depreciation. In the course of events
from values in this corn belt must
range higher and prove more profitable
than mines of mineral wealth.

4 TRICK IN PRINTING.

A we'll known printing house (not in
this State) is sending out a circular
card with one page headed as follows :;
.eTHEsE ARE THE PRICES OF YOUR HOME
PRINTER, DIVIDE THEM II HALF AND
yor HAVE OR PRICES" Then they
quote the prices which they say home
printers" charge for work all the way
from Is to 1I5 per cent. over what
"home printers" do charge; and then
say divide these prices by half and
you have our prices" For instance,
they saw "home printers" charge $500
for 500 bill heads and they will print
them for half that amount when the
printed price list sent out from this OF
fee quotes 800 bill heads at $1.25.
They say the "home printer" charges
$3.50 for 500 envelopes when the
price list sent out from THE DEMOCRAT
office quotes 800 good envelopes for
81. 40. They say that the "home print
er" charges $3.50 for 900 packet note
heads when the price list sent out from
%
packet note heads at $3.50 per 1000.
And so they run through the list.
Now, it is all right for them to print
at half what "home printers" charge, if
thew can but we submit that it is I'M
fair to quote our prices at twice what
they actually are and then propose to
cut half.
When a branch of business resorts to
untruthful statements in order to secure
business, we deem it our duty to ex-
pose the trick. We are none the less
disposed to do it because it happens, in
this case, to be branch of business in
which we are engaged. When any
man Or company resorts to untruthful
statements to secure business they are
unworthy the confidence and pa .ronage
of the public.
These circular cards have been sent
to persons in Scotland Neck, and it is
a very sharp trick to turn printing
from the ''home printer" to the COM
pany that prints for half price, as they
say.
And it is very easy thing for mer-
chants and others who need printing to
conclude from the false representations
made on the circular referred to that
the ''home printer" is sure enough
charging two prices for his work
The DEMOCRAT has labored persist
entity for nearly seven years for the best
interest of Scotland Neck and commu-
nifty; and while this office can ana
does send out as good work at as low
prices as other printing houses, we
So do not allow other peoples price
lists to get your orders until you see
our prices and the quality of our work
Other things being equal it is to the
advantage of every citizen to patronize
his neighbor first

Or STATE GOTERN.NENT.

The present system Of the State gov
eminent in North Carolina is, with
very few exceptions, about as nearly
perfect as it can be made. Especially
ia the system of county government
fair and just and satisfactory. We
have taken the time to examine our
exchanges with some degree Of care In
their reports OF the meeting Of the
magistrates in the county on Monday
Of last week and we have found that
in majority of cases the report OF the
county commissioners was satisfactory
and showed the counties to be in good
condition. In many of the counties
the rate of taxation has been reduced
far below the constitutional limit, the
counties are out of debt and the county
orders are worth 100 cents in the dol
lar.
In almost all the counties where
there has been no unusual loss, such as
the burning of the court house or jail,
the finances of the people are in good
shape, and certainly are there very few
of the counties whose financial cOndi-
ton would have tendency to keep out
any who might be coming from other
sections of the country to seek homes
in North Carolina.
On this subject the Davidson Dis
patch, speaking of the satisfactory re-
suit of the action of the magistrates in
that county last week, says:
"In the face of such result, one
who would contend against our system
of county government upon the ground
that it deprives the people of their
rights, would 60 into the discussion
with the disadvantage of having the
facts against him"
Now, to whose credit does all this
happy state of affairs throughout North
Carolina belong? What power has res
tored the grand old commonwealth
from state of chaotic confusion to
harmonious prosperity? Any and ev-
cry fair-minded, honest and intelligent
man will answer that it is all due to
the admirable management of the Dem
cratic party.
Now, the tendencies of both the Re
publican and Third parties, whether
alone or together we do not know, is to
antagonize the system of government
IN the State and throw the State into
great confusion, while as it now is the
whole State is happy and prosperous.
We ask, in all candor, what the farm
ers and others of North Carolina hope
to accomplish towards righting nation
al wrongs and grievances, if they have
them, by tearing down the best system
of State government that North Caro-
lima has ever known-certainly since
the war.
These are arguments which no re-
publican or third party man, black or
white, can successfully gainsay. And
we beg our friends to consider the
things; and especially ought the PEG
pie of Eastern Carolina consider them.

COMPLIMENTARY TO DR. WOOD.

Yesterday DR. William r. Wood,
who for five years had been the SUI
perintendent OF the Y c. Insane Aey-
lun. and whose residence in Raleigh
has endeared him to many who viii
long cherish pleasant memories Of their
agreeable intercourse with him, took
his dedarture for his old home and left
the scene of his useful and honorable
public career.
DR.. Wood has made a most capable
and efficient officer He has not only
made friends and won esteem. but he
has received merited recognition among
the leaders Of thought in that depart
ment of medicine in which he has
served. We have before US copy Of
the Medico-Legal Journal, a publlca-
ton of a very high order, in which the
very high compliment is paid DR..
Wood of embelllshlng its pages with
his portrait and publishing an interest
ing sketch of his life.
We quote from this sketch
CDR Wood is a native North Carroll
MAN and representative type OF the
older class OF Southern gentlemen, COM
ing down to us from ante bellum days,
and one who is fully alive to the para
mount Importance OF the building up
and progressive development OF the
material resources Of his State and sec
ton. He comes of a colonial ancestor,
whose proeenitors immigrated from En-
gland to Jamaica in the eighteenth CEN
tury and from thence to the Albemarle
section of North Carolina. He has for
many years been a prominent member
OF the State Medical Society, and In
1884 was elected President of the Board
of Medical Examiners for term OF six
years While President of the Board
of Medical Examiners he was chosen
by the Directors of the n. G. Insane
Asylum, superintendent of that splen-
did institution, position he has flied
for the past five years with marked
ability and in the most satisfactory
manner to its Board Of Directors and to
the people OF the State. "-Obseruer-
Chronicle, 3rd.
It is gratifying to THE DEMOCRAT
and to Dr. Woods friends throughout
the State to see such strong testimo-
malls of bis worth and service to the
State.
THE DEMOCRAT calls on Holsters
Weekly now to review some things it
SAID when DR.. Wood was elected Sup
erintendent of the asylum and see if
our predictions have not come true to
the letter.
THE DEMOCRAT said then that alter
DR.. Wood had had a fair showing it
would be willing to ABIDE by the senti-
ment of the people, and we called upon
our contemporary to walt even year
before casting the insinuation that DR..
Wood was not the man for the place
What says the Weekly now? Will it
not join us in congratulating the whole
State of North Carolina upon the good
services rendered the State by DR..
Wood during his successful manage
ment and improvement of the institu-
ton over which be presided with so
much ability?
