A special train will leave here
Thursday morning at 7:30o o'clock
for Raleigh, stopping at all sta
tions along the road and arriving
in Raleigh at 80 a. M, for the
benefit of all in this section who
may desire to attend the great
gathering of Democratic clubs of
the State there on that day, The
train will leave Raleigh that
evening after the demonstra-

Now For Business.

The agony is over. The com
mittee which the State Demo
cratic Executive Committee sent
here to arbitrate the difference
between the Democratic factions
in New Hanover county has an
nounced it's findings, as will be
seen by reference to the proceed
ings of the committee to be
found elsewhere in this morn
ing's Messenger.
The finding of the committee
sustains the validity of the coun-
ty convention and consequently
the validity of the nominations
made by the convention, with
the exception of the two nomi-
nees who declined the nomina-
tion-one for the House and one
for constable in Wilmington
township.
Whatever might be said of the
unfortunate methods adopted by
the convention, we have not
doubted but that it's action could
not be otherwise than valid,
hence we put it's nominees at the
masthead of the Messenger several
weeks ago. We have refrained,
however, from putting at our
masthead the nominations of Mr.
Green's committee to fill the va
can't places for the House of rep
resentatives and for constable.
There was controversy as to
which committee was the legally
constituted county executive
committee-the one of which Mr..
Green is chairman or the one o1
which Mr.. Borden is chairman
hence we did not put it's nomi
nees up with the convention nom
ineeS.
The arbitration committee has
settled our row for US, and it is
/ hoped all Democrats who desire
party success to personal prefer
ences, will acquiesce in the find
ing of the committee.
! We presume Mr.. Borden''
committee will meet in few
days and fill out the ticket b,
nominating a candidate for tn
House an6 one for constable w,
hope they will make judiciou
selections, and we have no doub
they will select nominees wh'
will be entirely acceptable to tn
/ Democracy. - Wilmiaagtou Messen

ord states that the Standard Oil
company has purchased the great
sulphur deposits near Charles,
La. This sulphur deposits is of

failed. The price paid by the
Standard company is reported to

|opment have been given to a local

The general condition Of South
ern business interests is very
hopeful. Bank clearings and rail
road earnings continue to show
large gains. A number Of manu-
featuring enterprises are enlarg-
ing their works, one agricultural
implement company in Tennessee
is doubling it's plant and will in
crease the number of hands en-
ployed from $50 to 400.
Throughout the North and the
West the South is attracting
more and more and more atten-
.tion and the evidences are daily
accumulating of a large South
ward movement of population.
Among the principal industria
enterprises reported for the week
are a $3.50, 900 brewing company
and a $50, 200 wood working com
pany in Virginia: a 800, 600

vote. The financial revulsion was
the beginning of business paral-
ysis and industrial distress
throughout the land, and good
men of all parties rose up in
every State and in both houses
Of Congress to rescue the national
credit by the repeal of the Sher-
man law, which was strict g
Republican partisan measure
when it was passed.
The general paralysis of bust
purchase bill, which was opposed
solidly by the Republican party
ness and trade that resulted
from financial disturbance, and
the natural distrust and hesita-
ton which always attend tariff
revision, greatly reduced the na-
tional revenues, while the in
creased expenditures fixed by
the Republican Congress re-
manned, and the Treasury has
been severely strained during
the present administration. With
all its strain, however, the gov
eminent has issued a single loan
of $50, ,OOO, 900, and that is over
$40, 900, 900 less than the surplus
left the Harrison administration
when Mr.. Cleveland retired,
while the reduction of the gold
reserve does not amount to the
forced loan paid under Harri-
sons administration by the ap-
preparation of the bank trust
fund.
From these facts it would seem
that those who criticise the pres
ent administration for the con
dition of the Treasury must fall
sify history, and those who are
wise will frankly confess that
the condition of the Treasury to-
day is vastly better, considering
the existing conditions, than it
was under the preceding admin
istration. The people who pay
the taxes will be entirely honest
on this subject sooner of later,
and politicians would act wisely
by being honest at once.

Ransom at AsheviIIe.
Special Star Telegram.

AsHEvILLE, N. c.. September
12.-Senator Ransom spoke to-
day at Asheville. He commenced
by a most touching and tender
allusion to Senator Vance and
proceeded Immediately to discuss
the political issues. He spoke of
the repeal of the Federal cleo
ton laws and the restoration of
the South to all her rights and
equalities in the Government,
and the removal of all the disa-
bilities of her people by the
democratic party, He discussed
the tariff in general with great
Glearness and effect. He present
ed the income Tux in the strong
est light; called attention to the
reduction by the Democratic
party Of over forty-one million
dollars. He said the Democratic
party was true and faithful to
the South. He contrasted the
Justice of the Democratic party
with the injustice Of the Repub-
lican party towards the South.
He demonstrated that every
measure of benefit, relief and
Justice to the Southern people
since the war had been achieved
by the Democratic party. He
spoke of the perfect success
with which the Democratic party
had managed State affairs, of the
great wisdom and justice with
which the Southern people had
treated the colored people, and
declared that humanity owed the
Southern Democracy a debt of
gratitude for the way they had
managed this difficult question.
He paid a grand tribute to the
ability, courage and patriotism
of the Natioual Democratic ad-
ministration. He poured light all
through the Republican and
Populist parties. He spoke of
their wild and desperate at
tempts at legislation by which
they proposed to appropriate
more money than the whole
world possessed. He stated that
they had promised prosperity
and abundance to the people, but
wherever their influence had
been felt the result was dis
ordered, strikes, riots, blood
shed, fire and ruin. He spoke OF
the great achievement of the
President in breaking up riots
and restoring law and order.
The Opera House was crowd
ed to Overlooking. The applause
was frequent and enthusias tic
and often long, continuous an6
deafening.
AT the conclusion of the speecl
crowds of old soldiers, citizen:
and lovely women surrounded
and greeted the speaker.

WOODARD AT MT. OLIVE.
He Spoke Yesterday to an Audi
ence of Four Hundred.
[Argus Special. j

Mt, OLIVE, N. G. Sept. Is, '94.
Hon. F. A. Woodland addressed
a large gathering here to-day.
There were some four hundred
people out to hear him. He spoke
for two hours and the crowd list
ened with quiet and respectful
attention. Quite a large element
of Third Partyites and Republi-
cans including many negroes
were among the audience.
The speech seemed to make a
most favorable impression on all
present, and much good will GER
tainly result, as quite a number of
good men heretofore affiliating
with the Populists cannot stand
fusion and will return after hear
ing Mr. Woodard's convincing
speech to the Democratic fold.
The crowd showed from the
beginning to the end great de-
sire to hear and reflect, and Mr..
Woodland gave them much to
ponder over, and his splendid
speech will result in many votes
for Democracy that were hereto
fore wavering.

The Tariff and the Farmer.

The whole tariff question, SO
far as it affects the farmer, is
graphically summarized in Puck
of August Is The cartoon is
entitled 1.-The American Farmer
When he has to sell, and where
he has to buy"
On one side of the picture the
farmer is offering his products,
corn, wheat, pork, beef, etc.-in
the free trade markets of Europe.
He has to compete there with
Russian, Australian and South
American farmers. It is the open
competition of this market which
determines not only the prices
which he obtains for imported
products, but also the prices OF
the greater part of the same pro
ducts sold at home. He completes
with the cheapest farm labor in
the world. He has no special
privileges. His share of the pro
lection in the Mckinley bill was
bogus.
On the other side of the picture
the farmer is making purchases
of clothing, implements, furni
ture, etc. He is not in the free
and open markets of the worl6
where all manufacturers are com
peting with each other for his
patronage. He is restricted tc
McKinley's "Home Market" ant
high prices. Everything il
marked up" according to the
tariff duty placed upon
which regulates production ane
prices of this particular product
Mckinley put no sawdust in th'
protection which he gave to th'
trusts and manufacturers. The,
do not hesitate to charge the poo
and deluded farmer so per cen
more than he would have to pa,
for his goods in the same marke
in which he sells his products
His money goes only two third
as'far with.protection' as it woul
and will-without it.
This is all there is to the tari1
Iquestion for the farmer. He ha
been fooled and buncoed in votin:
for this gigantic fraud, but he
getting his eyes open and unles
Lincoln was mistaken when b
said "You can't fool all the pee
pie all of the time" there will b
some surprises for Mckinley i
the returns from next Novembe
electors in the country dis
triots of the West and North.
