Prosperous Carolina Farmers

Commissioner Robinson, of tn North
Carolina board Of agriculture, in the
last bulletin of the board. calls attan-
tion to the prosperous agricultural
sections of the State in tn Sc words:
The condition Of farm Ars in North
Carolina is one which gives great az
surance at this TIM, and should en-
courage our people very much. In
the North, and particularly Northwest,
the suffering and dcstitution amongst
the one-crop farmers is such as to
cause great apprehension. So great is
the depression that many are writing
this Office in search of new homes in n
mild climate where variety Of farm
products may be grown. Tie fnan-
cial depression has affected our farmers
but little. They may not have much
cash, but they have plenty to feed man
and beast and prospect Of good crop
before them. The climate conditions
have never been better for the further
ance of all farm operations than we
have enjoyed in this State this year.

all together the amount paid by the
southern section of the country fol-
the support of the government is
about S15, 100000.
On the other hand the South receiv-
ed back from the Federal Govern
ment last year as follows: In sugar
bounty, about SO, 100000; in pensions
to Mexican and Union veterans and
their widows and families, not less
than $5,OOO,OOO; and for deficits in
postal receipts about So, ,OO0,OOO Thus
it will be seen the South received from
the government at least $4,000, 900
more than it contributed.
Even, however, had the South been
compelled to contribute its fill quota
to the payment of pensions to the vet
Grams of the Union army, and should
help pay it's full share until the last
surviving soldier or sailor, who gave
of the strength of his manhood for
the preservation of the republic, has
passed away, it would have no just
cause for complaint. There is no rec
ord in history where less was ever
exacted from those responsible for a
wicked and causeless rebellion than
has been demanded by the victors of
the vanquished in this country. Not
a single leader or soldier of the con-
federacy was punished; not a dollars

THE SEIGNIORAGE BILL.

The seigniorage bill which has just
passed the senate was bad measure
when it was offered in the House. 1t
has become much worse in it's passage
through the two houses, and stands
| to-day one of the most indecent and
shameless currency -debauchidg meas
ures ever proposed. Originally, the
excuse for it was that Government
could not get from the revenue bill
upon which the House was able to
agree enough revenue for the neces
sites Of the government, and that the
coinage of the silver bullion on hand
would keep the mints busy for some
years, so that the powerful tendency
Of the democratic party toward free
coinage could be successfully with
stood for time, while the issue of
$55, 100000 more silver certificates
against actual deposits of standard
dollars might do no great harm. But
the senate committee has shown that
a sufficient revenue can be raised, if
not from the bill as it stands, with
some notifications Of that bill In
order to provide immediate relief for
the expected deficiency the seignior-
age DILL has been made to authorize
issues of silver certificates in advance
Of any coinage, and consequently in
advance of any deposit of standard
dollars. But worst of all, it is found
that the phraseology Of the bill is now
such as to afford pretext for issuing
SOD, ,000,0 900 of certificates against sill
yer going to be coined, and $55, ,OOO,-
900 more against nothing. 1t was
bill to coin vacuum, but has become
bill to debase the currency by adding
$4,000, 900 paper, half representing
coined vacuum, and half purely fiat
money.
The House of Representative pass
ed the seigniorage bill by 80 majority
the vote in favor being 1853 to 129
against Should the bill be vetoed by
President Cleveland, it goes to the
House, where it originated. No one
anticipates that it could get two
thirds vote in the popular branch, and
on reconsideration the thirty nine
majority obtained on it's passage may
have q material reduction. So there
is no sort of question President Cleve-
land holds the fate of Mr.. Bland's bill
in his hands. He is confronted by the |
fact that a veto message will height
en- the divisions now existing in the
democratic party, and the most of the
politicians in those sections of the
country where the democratic party /
has the greatest strength are for this
in order that they may say
the Administration has done some
thing for silver. But Mr.. Cleveland is
in position of such prominence and
he can not play politics
