showed two things; that the
Democrats were not in any hu
NOR to desert their party out to
demand and carry out reforms
within party lines; and secondly,
that they were not in any hurry
to form any ''entangting alli>
anceS."
While we believe that the
Democrats in North Carolina out
of towns-in the rural districts
are overwhelmingly in favor of
the honest money OF the Consti-
tution-the gold and silN er
Washington and Hamilton and
Jefferson and Jacksou-perhaps
ninety five out Of every one hun
dred; and in very considerable
force in the cities and in towns
and villages, we feel sure that
they are DOT willing to trust
moss back Radicals and nave no
confidence in the least i'll the
wisdom, sincerity and reliable>
ness of the leaders Of the Popu-
lists. Fhe rank and file Of the
Populists are to d large extent
sincee and honest in their po-
I11tical professions aud convic
tions, but their leaders are too
mucn of the Dougald Dalgetty
stripe to command the conidence
Of the real simon pure Democ-
racy who never falter and are as
+r,,, to +i,.H f,,p1. tior ,op,nl.i,,lo
Of their party as the needle is
true to the pole.
The Raleigh thing will not affect
seriously or help to shape the
policies of parties in North Car
oiina. The Radicals and a large.
preponderating element in the
Populist party will coalesce,
com bine, conspire, fuse. amalga-
mate, mix, hug, spout and de-
nounce galore, and all for the
grand principles Of gather and
hold and use. Then, possibly, d
few Populists who will cherish
some lingering attachment for
the one great Constitutional
party of the people-the grand
and noble old Democratic party
SO often deserted, misied and de-
ceived-may come oack and help
to uphold the old banner that
was waved in triumph SO often
and for the benefit and safety of
North Carolina.
1t was we'll that ex-senator

The Texas Legislature .in Extra Session.

Austin, Tex, Sept. 27-At
midnight last night Governor
Culberson issued a proclamation
for a session Of the Legislature
to pass law prohibiting prize
fighting. The session OF the Leg
islature to be convened in the
city Of Austin, beginning at noon
Tuesday, October 1, 1895, for the
following purposes: o. To de-
nounce prize fighting and kin
dred practices in clear and unam-
biguous terms and prohibit the
srme by appropriate pains and
penalties, putting the law into
immediate operation and making
necessary provision for its en-
forcement, SO that the proposed
exhibition Of this character
within this State may be pre-
vented, the undoubted will of the
people upon the subject re>
spected and this affront to the
moral sense and enlightened pro-
gress of Texas averted, and ~
to consider an act upou such
other matters as may be pre-.
sented pursuant to section 40, ar
ticles 3 of the Constitution.
The proclamation issued by
Governor Culberson late last
night, convening a special ses
sion of the Legislature next Tues
day TO pass another law against
prize fighting was the popular
topic to day. 1t was said to-day
that the Populists and other po-
litical opponents of the Cover
nor may defeat his plans by en-
acting a law to go into effect IN
ninety days. Representative
Ward said that the Legislatu un-
douhtediy would pass law to go
into effect immediately and that
it would make prize fighting a
felony. He thinks the law will
be passed within a week after the
Legislature meets.

The PiebaId Gathering,

The meeting at Raleigh was a
magnificent fasco. 1t was Pop
crowd with a very small sprink
ling of Radicals (aine) and enough
Democrats twenty -seven) to
guarantee the piebald character
of the unfortunate gathering. 1t
was to be tremendous affair,
the gathering of the clans. an
outpouring by the thousands of
Democrats and a wild rush Of
PopuliSts. 1t was another in
stance of the deeds of the war
not coming up to the fierce pro-
nunciamen-o. It was the
deadest OF all dead failures after
much blowing of trumpets, beat
ing of tom toms and endless ru-
mors. Butler can say with the
great C8sar-I came, I saw, I
conquered. The twenty~seven
Democrats are unable to report

THIS is not the only country
that has had period of business
depression recently. Several
others have undergone an ex-
perience similar to our own.
England is of the number While
not SO severe as ours, her busi-
ness troubles began year earl
ier and lasted longer. But like
the United States, that country
has about recovered. Times are
much better there than they
were year ago. The people
are consequently both buying
and selling more than they did
in 1894. The report of the Brit
ish Board of Trade for July
shows a big gain in England's S
foreign trade that month. Her
exports increased nearly 12 and
her imports more than 10 per
cent. as compared with the bust
ness reported in September, 1894.
This is all the more notable from
the result in June-a decrease in
both exports and imports. In
March and May a slight gain was
made in each, but February and
April both brought losses, as
Ibid also January i'll imports.

CROP REPORTS.

This weeks crop reports are
for the most part very favorable.
Light frosts Occurred in portions
OF the cotton belt, but no serl-
Gus damage was done. The crop
is beyond danger from frost
with the exception Of very late
corn. Probably 95 p cent of
il we were to have even freezing
weather throughout the corn
belt next month.
More damage has been done
this month by hot than by cold
weather, The crop in Kansas
will not be quite as large as was
expected in August. This State
has suffered some, too. as has
Arkansas. Missouri, however,
still promises tc carry off the
honors this year in total yield Of
corn. Our production will be
the largest i'll the history of the
State, and in all probability
larger than that of either Iowa
or Illinois.
The cotton crop will be short
as compared with last years, but
it will be pretty near up to the
average for ordinary years. We
have been having large crops
since 1889, with but one excep-
ton. The loss this year in
quantity promises to be made up
for the planter in price. Cotton
brings nearly two cents pound
more than ii did last Septenb ber.
Picking is going on in every
Southern State. In aro.her
month we shall be in better con-
dition to tell the probable yield
of the entire crop. Crop dam
ages are nearly always greatly
overestimated and we believe
that this years have been.
