TWO PICTURES.

Grover the Great, the champion fish
erman Of America, sejzes a Govern
ment steamer, rex and all, Goals up
at the Government coal yard, steams
into the waters of North Carolina,
cruises around fishing, frolicing, shoot
ing ducks, coal gives out and the sup
ply is replenished at the Government
coal yard, and u papers are filled
with the wonderful exploits of Grover
the Great.
Coxey stepped on the grass, the PEG,
ple'sgrass, in Washington City, and was
arrested, tried in court with a great
flourish, condemned, fined, handcuffed
and imprisoned, and our metropolitan
daily papers have Wed with each other
In expressions of contempt for the crazy
crank Coxey.

A FEW FACTS.

During the last year, according to
official reports, our government paid
over $24, 900, 900 to the railroad corpo-
rations for carrying the mails. This
money would have been saved to the
people if the government had owned
the roads, says the Columbus Ohio
PopuIist. $
If the government owned the rail
roads and coal mines the people of
Columbus and many other cities could
buy the best anthracite coal for 50 per
ton and the best bituminous coal for
81 IS per ton, while the miners would
get 40 per cent. more for mining than
now.
But working in the opposite direction
to this, the banks, railroad maguates
and trusts have cornered the money,
broken down prices of labor, foreclosed
mortgages by the thousands, crushed
honest industry and wrecked no less
than seventy five railroads.
These railroads will be bought up by
VLAO ~ AAV AN NOOAN0 " q U4OAO
song-the song of the shark-the gold
basis song; and we shall then have less
competition between roads and higher
prices put up against the people.
The cornering of the money by these
law protected public pirates works seven
more harm in the city than in the coun-
try. Look at the long list of property
sales advertised in the city for the pay
ment of taxes on the delinquent list.
What an outrage! Are the criminals
in u prisons more guilty of crime
than the men who enter into a con-
spiracy torob our people throughforms
of law9 These men fitch money from
the pockets Of the people and then use
that money TO buy up our legislators
and daily paper editors as if they were
so many Texas steers in an open mar
ket.

ACoND1TIoN AND NorATHEoRY

The annual expenditures out of the
National Treasury on account of the
Executive Office, proper, for the five
years next preceding 1893 averaged per
year 1922, 631 %. The great American
fsherman's expenses paid out of Uncle
Sans treasury last year amounted TO
1929, GIG SO, an increase of 1916, 985 %.
The assessed wealth of the average
inhabitant of North Carolina was, in
1890, according to the late census re,
turns, $l45. 43. Then you see, brother,
that it would take the total assessed
wealth of 1868 Sc of the average inhab
liant of North Carolina to meet thi !
increase. What do you think of this
as a sample of reforms Will Grover
claim that "the Republicans fastened
this debt upon us and we had it to
pays"

OUR NATIONAL EXPENSES.

We have before us a book entitled
Statistical Abstract of the United
States, 1898" On the title page we
find this statement: Prepared by the
Bureau of Statistics under the direction
of the Secretary of the Treasury" This
book was sent to Congress by j. G..
Carlisle, Secretary, with a letter dated
Dec. 18, 1893, requesting Congress to
have it printed Immediately. Dec. 90,
1898, it was referred to the committee
on printing and ordered to be printed"
So, then, we have some official data,
in a condensed form, from which we
can draw. We find it an exceedingly
interesting document, from the first
page to the 4O0th. Upon page 10 we
find a table, which is a recapitulation
of another table which covers pages g.,
10, II and IL, The table on page 10 we
give GER 6Gtin1, as follows:

ADVANTAGES OF IRRIGATION.

We are not a firm believer in irriga-
ton, though it is absolutely necessary
in some sections of the country. The
irrigation of crops is a legitimate I'M
dertaking. Spraying will do for lawns
and gardens Live stock need water
ing, but do not take to irrigation.
The Western Union Telegraph mo-
nOpoly believesin watering stock pretty
often. They now have their stock en-
tirely submerged-more irrigation than
land or crop.
From very small beginnings the COM
pRny which now controls the tele-
graphic business of this country has
grown to be one OF the most colossal
mopopolies the world has ever known.
Starting with a capitalization of $780,
900 in 1852, it has grown to 800, OOO,-
900 in 1898 with a bonded Indebtedness
of nearly SIS, OOO, 900 more, on which
the people must pay dividends. Last
year its receipts were, in round num-
bers, nearly $25, 900, 600, the profits on
which were nearly 81, 500, 900.

LIBERTY AND JUSTICE A FARCE

On last Monday Police Justice Miller
pronounced sentence on Coxey, Browne
and Jones, and they were lodged in jail
for twenty days. The jury found Jones
not guilty of the charges, but he was
hauled up and sentenced anyhow. The
reason the jury Disseminated in Jones'
case was that he did not step on the
grass nor attempt to speak. 1t was
proven that Browne did jump over a
wire fence and walk across a portion
of the Capitol grounds, but Coxey
walked along the pavement, and,
after getting upon the Capitol steps,
was told that he could not make a
speech. Two policemen escorted him
to his carriage and he left at once for
the camp. By a system of fine hair.
splitting Browne might have been
found guilty according to the evidence
was guilty, of stepping on the grass.
But the other men were not guilty.
They violated no law, just or unjust.
To add to the meanness of the authori-
ties the three men were handcuffed
and placed in the Iprison wagon with
other prisoners, sentenced during the
same hour, but who were not hand
cuffed.
The banners" carried by the men
consisted of one flag and each had a
strip of cotton cloth, three inches wide
and five inches long, pinned on the
lapel of their coats. Verify, the day
of liberty and justice is almost spent.
The powers that be would shoot down
men who ask for justice were it not
bad policy. They have no more feel
ing for the man who is out of work
than you or I have for a mad dog. They
can find the innocent guilty or declare
the guilty innocent, if they choose.
There will be a day of reckoning. The
bottom rail shall and will reach the
top. Plutocracy can pretend to cloak
their Shiny bodies with the livery of
heaven for the time being, but a lust
l0od will not hold them guiltless when

THE STATE FAIR.

In another column we publish a com
munication relative to the next State
Fair and suggesting some of the ad
vantages of a full display of the agri-
cultural and mineral resources of the
various counties.
We believe in fairs, provided they
are managed right. We think a full
display of the natural resources OF
North Carolina will be advantageous
to all the people of the State. The
many county and State fairs held here,
"a well as our exhibits at Philadelphia,
New Orleans and Chicago, have been
of untold benefit. The eyes of the
world are upon North Carolina. Our
State is destined to become the leading
agricultural, truck and fruit growing
State in the Union. In variety of pro-
ducts. soil and climate she stands with
out a peer,
Wake county will probably lead off
with a liberal appropriation for the
purpose mentioned, and we cannot e
any reason why other counties may
not follow. We would oppose any
extravaganza sum for this purpose, Or
any attempt to use it for private gain,
but think a small sum can be used to
advantage.
We presume that the Fair Associa-
ton will advertise literally and get
many outsiders here to see the exhibits.
If they come, and every county is on
exhibit, the visitors will realize that
North Carolina is an empire within
itself. Hop growers from the North
and West can see our hops and hop
lands; fruit growers can see the finest
fruit; mining men and stock raisers
will be interested in our horses, hogs,
cattle and minerals; truck gardeners
and fishermen can see that Eastern
North Carolina is the natural home for
them. We don't want the riff raft of
immigration, but we would welcome
good citizens who may wish to cast
their lot with us and help develop our
great State, bringing with them both
money and experience.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

By some means we got a report of
the Wilson County Alliance credited
to Warren county. Such mistakes
seem TO be unavoidable.
The races at Capt. Williamson's beau
tiful Fairview stock farm were inter
rupted on the 18th by rain, and finished
last Friday. Mr.. E B Barbee's horse
won.
Capt. Kitchin was a mighty good
man, a fine stump speaker, and a use
full man to the party until he concluded
to reform and began to BUCK" against
the ways Of plutocracy.
A New York paper says that Gov
ernor Carr has paid the little nursery
debt due Senator Jarvis and now has
nothing to do but sit back in an arm
chair and watch his mustache grow.
We hear a good deal about U. s.
Marsha1s ~arresting tramps who steal
trains, but nothing about the arrest of
another class of citizens who steal, not
only the trains, but whole railroads
and everything attached thereto.
Elm Grove Alliance, Rowan county,
has 100 members and had two more
applications at the last meeting. That
Alliance is in the midst of one of the
best farming neighborhoods in the
State and is made up of the best men
in the vicinity.
The impudent reformer who, in reply
to the statement that there is plenty of
money in this country-in the banks
said Eyes, and there is plenty of fire
in hades, but it won't keep us warm in
the winter" ought to be suppressed.
He is a bad man.
1t has been said that no Southern
State Democratic convention would
endorse President Cleveland. Alabama
has fully endorsed him and all his
schemes of gold buggery, and refused
to endorse Senator Morgan, the ''Zeb
Vance, of Alabama.
Some people fear that there will be
a war between labor and capital. There
is no danger of that if labor will stop
voting with and for capital. But we
do fear that the Democrats will get into
a fracticidal war over the meaning of
the Chicago platform.
Mrs. Verde Flowers, wife of Bro.
VIM. Flowers, the Business Agent of
Thunder Swamp Alliance, Wayne Co.,
called on us Tuesday, 22d. She is
spending some days in the city with
her sister, Mrs. Y. r. Causey who also
halls from Wayne county.
The success of the Alliance principles
and platform does not disturb the aver
age p~lutocrat in North Carolina because
they are bad, but because they are good.
The corporation newspapers and law
yers would be out of a Job. Watch
and see if this isn't the prime objection.
An attempt may have been made to
bride q couple Of Senators for political
effect. but our candid opinion is that
the million dollars said to be on hand
for that Job, is not for the purpose
of bribing Democratic Senators, but for
the sole purpose of paying Democratic
Senators for amending the Wilson bill
so it will be better for the protectionists
than the Mckinley bill.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1894-05-29

they trample the ten commandments
under foot and crush the weak under
their heels.
The Alliance has started a movement
that will unlock the fetters.now binding
the limbs of millions. Thousands are
learning the truth daily and the move
ment will succeed. Coxey's sideshow
may be laughed at, but the eyes of mil
lions are upon it. The millions are
talking and thinking, and that means
action. Coxey may stay in Jail until
he rots, and the poor men who came to
Washington with him may be wiped
off the face of the earth, but the trip
