MONEY THE TRUE REMEDY.

The Wilmington Morning Star is
getting around right on the political
issues of the day. But it is wasting
many valuable days in a hopeless fight
by associating with the antagonists of
the very objects it has in view. The
Star says:
1.-The advocates of the single gold
standard in this country contend that
the low price of farm products which
has generally prevailed since the sin
gle standard Was adopted, is not the re
suit of this, but is solely due to over
production, which is equivalent to tell
ing the farmer that the remedy is re-
striction of production. Under pres,
ent conditions restriction of produc-
ton is necessary if the prosperity of
the farmer alone Is to be considered, for
it is folly for him to labor to produce
more than he can sell or more than he
can get a living price for, and conse-
quently he should gauge his produc
ton as nearly as practicable by the ca
pacity of the markets upon which he
depends; but in the broader view, if we
consider the welfare of the people as a
whole, or the people Of the world as a
whole, the restriction remedy is the
wrong one. Instead of making re-
str.ction necessary in order that the
farmer may be paid for his labor, the
true policy is to enlarge the capacity
OF the people to CO.. sumo so that they
may be able to buy all the farmer NAV
raise. Instead of being discouraged.
the greatest possible production should
be encouraged. 1t is better to nave a
we'll fed and a we'll clad than a poorIv
fed and poorly clad people and this
should be the aim of right minded
craftsmanship, even if philanthropy
didn't enter into the question.
When were ever an abundance of
money and hard times coincidentI
When were ver scarcity of money
and good times coincident9 No mortal
nan ever heard Of the two existing to
gether. Good times don't make money
but money makes good times. Money
and plenty of it, is as necessary fol-
good times as the wheels under a loco
motive are necessary for the Iocomo
tive to draw the train behind it, and
'nere Is no more danger of having toe
mucu money than there is of having
much good times. The true remedy

LEASE OF THE NORTH CARO-

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
ACuuuTT NJ ~

correspondence OF the Progressive E6FulSEs
AsHEvILLE, N. @.
would like to say a few words in
regard to the lease of the North Caro-
lima Railroad through the medium of
your most valuable paper. When l
looK around me, in our fair Western
North Carolina, and see thousands OF
bushels of apples, not to say anything
Of the other valuable farm products,
actually rotting on the ground and
going to waste for the want of reason
able transportation; the more I see and
feel the great and objectionable injus-
tice that is being done the people of the
State. Here are all of these things
going to ruin simply because it costs
more to get them to market than can
be realized out Of them after they are
there. And at the same time, a rich
railroad company is realizing a ire
mendous revenue out of a railroad that
belongs to the people Of the State. Il
matters not how much they may pay
the State for the use of it, they will re-
al;z8 a large profit out of 1t, and that,
too, out OF those to whom the road be
longs.
The step taken by the State Alliance
at it's last session should be approved
| by every citizen Of the State of North
| Carolina who feels an interest in him
self and in the welfare of his fellow
man. It should show these who have
become lukewarm in the work of the
/ Order that through the Alliance is the
only means by which the farmer can
become independent, or can cope with
the monopolles and trusts that have
been combined against him. 1t is a la
inevitable fact that the Farmers ALI
anca has been comparatively dead in
our county for some time; but I am
GLAD TO be able to state that the pres.
enC outlook is very encouraging. Al
nearly every point in the county the
people are beginning to ;, ma back and
are calling for organization, and at some
points they are getting even enthusiasts
TIC over the revival of the Alliance.
With best wishes to your most val
liable paper, and hoping it may ever
be a beacon light to the farmers Ct our
fair State, and that you shall continue
to hear good tidings from our 'Otd
Buncombe Alliance, " and that the rail
road lease will be knocked higher than
a kite, lam,

The people of North Carolina have
much for which to be thankful to AL
mighty God in the year which has just
past. The earth has brought forth
abundantly of the food products in
response TO our labors, the prices of
raw materials have advanced. indus
trial progress has been awakened in
our midst and the future looks brighter
than the past few years of disaster
and want.
Our people should be thankful for
the blessings vouchsated to them, and
in grateful remembrance of His good
ness and in obedience to our laws and
the time honored custom of our fore
fathers, devote one day of the year to
His service.
Therefore, l, ELIAS CARR, Governor

l earnestly request every citizen of
this great Commonwealth to lay aside
his usual business, assemble either in
the churches or arouId the fireside,
and make this annual festival a day
of prayer and Thanksgiving. Let not
the day be devoted to amusemente,
but with grateful hearts give praise to
God fer the preservation of u liber-
ties and for the advancement Of our
Nation in prosperity and greatness.
This State has aver been the home OF

Der in our prayers and offerings the
charitable institutions Of the State, the
wounded and needy soldiers, the
orphan, the poor and afflicted, and by

LET US GIVE THANKS.

Next Thursday is a legal holiday.
The President and Governor have pro
claimed this fact officially. In their
procIamations they tell US we can bt
thankful for some things we have not
received, but that is all right. Other
high officials have done that. They
also give some good advice as to how
the day should be spent, and we hope
our readers and the public generally
viii spend the day as it should be spent
instead of turning it into a day OF de
bauchery and crime
We ought to be profoundly thankful
to a wise and Great R Iler above who
has given US much m0re than we de
serve. Good health, good weather,
good crops, with a few exceptions,
have been the rule for the last twenty
years, But the good government and
approaching prosperity" and rising
prices S" that our earthly rulers talk
about are confined strictly to Wall
street and other isolated st cJions of the
country.
After going to church u readers
can do nothing better for their tempo
raj comfort, and in order to go to bed
that night with a clear conscience, than
to devote a part of the day to paying
up their subscriptions and getting
others to subscribe. This will tend to
make us feel that all labor has not
been in vain, and make us thankful
that there are still signs of life in the
old land yet, and that reform will yet
come, and that it will be in the near
future.
