The Waste Of Labor.

Of all the waste, The greatest waste
that you can commit is the waste of
labor. x You. perhaps,
think to waste the labor of men is
not to kill them. Is it not? l should
like to know how you could kill
them more utterly-kill them with
second deaths? It is the slightest
way of killing ostop a mans breath.
/. At the worst you do but
shorten his life, you do not corrupt
his life. But if you put him to base
labor, if you bind his thoughts, if
you blind his eyes, if you blunt his
hopes, if you steal his joys, if you
stunt his oody and blast his soul, and
at last leave him not 30 much as to
reap the poor fruit of his oegreda-
ton, but gather that for yourself,
and dismiss him to the grave when
you have done with him, having &C
far as in you lay made the walls Of
that grave everlasting (though, in
deed, l fancy the goodly bricks ot
some of our family vaults will hole
closer in the resurrection day thar
the sod over the laborer's head), thil
you think is no waste and no SIM

TINE LEADING PAPERS. f"
The Kind ef Men Who Run the old Part,
Organs.

Organs
Populist papers are scoring q
strong point by telling what kind Of
men own the leading" big papers in
America Four Of the most promi-
nent OF these papers are the New
York Times, of which a man named
Miller is editor; New York World.
Joseph Pulitzer, editor; New York
Herald James Gordon Bennett, editor:
New York Evening Post. Godkln,
editor. These papers are" "IndependeDt
Democratic" or something of that
kind, but all goldbugs. A cartoon
OF the four editors is prese ted and
the papers say:
1t was to fight such men and such policies
that the Populist party was first organized.
These men. through the influence of their
papers, actually dictate the financial policy
OF the old parties-in the interest of Europe
Miller, the owner of the New York Times,
ance to the United States. Godkin was born
in Ireland, and though he has lived thirty
years under the stars and stripes, he IS
subject of Queen Victoria. Pulitzer was
born in Hungary and has resided in that
country permanently since he accumulated
fortune In America. Bennett is the only
one of the four born in this country. His
father was a subject of Queen Victoria while
accumulating wealth from the New York
Herald. So after all, the junior Bennett is
an American only by accident of birth He
has lived in Paris all his life and lives there
today. Like Thomas F Bayard. the Ameri-
can ambassador to England, he believes that
America is a vulgar place and unfit for a
gentleman to reside in. Cleveland, Gresham
and Carlisle are mere tools in the hands of
these gentlemen and must do their bidding.
They will remain in the saddle until March
4, 1897. And if the Populist party should
fail of election in 1896 they will get right in
to the saddle again. No matter how earnest
the rank and file of the old parties may be
in the effort to obtain honest. government,
the leaders are always in the hands of the
ultra European policy makers. The only
American party is the Peoples Party. Vote
to put none but Americans ON guard.

Two years ago his uncle, one Peter

Conroy was supposed TO have a good
sum of money saved up. and, as Nc
CURE was his only heir, he antici-

When Conroy's will was opened
it was found that he had left nothing
to McGuire but an old fiddle he had
brought with him from Tralee,
County Kerry, ireland, in l3iS.
McGuire was SO indignant that he
would not pay the expressass Of the
instrument to Kansas. Two week,
ago he dreamed one night that the
fiddle was full of money. lie spoke
about ii to his wife. and the latter

enough frem her butter and eg,

A Great Big Truth.

The New York World tells great
big truth when it says:
ITO reduce wages is to cripple the
farmers market for his products,
while to reduce the price which the
farmers receive for their products is
to cripple the market for the pro-
duct of industrial labor. The pros
uerity of the one means the pros
perity of the other, and therefore it
is natural that they should move
hand in hand for the social reforms
now demanded. Excessive rent is
eating the life out of the business
men and laborers. wherever civiliza-
ton extends. The percentage of
our people living in tenement houses
Is yearly increasing. The mortgaged
foreclosures are daily wrenching
from hard-working, honest farmers
the homes in which they were born
There are over 100000 tenant
farmers in the United States, and
yet the people say there is no cause
for alarm!"

A MATTER OF HISTORY.
North Carolina Furnishes the First and
Last Soldier Killed In the Late War.


Last Soldier Killed In the Late War.
Winston Republican,
1t may not be generally known
that North Carolina furnished the
first and last brave men that laid
down their lives in defense of the
Lost Cause. The first Confederate
soldier killed in the war was named
Wyatt, member of the famous
Edgecombe Guards, commanded by
Col. Bridgers. Our friend, D. N.
Woodburn, of Tabernacle, brought
to the Patriot Office the other day a
book printed in 1910, which had
been in his family for over three
quarters of a century, in the back Of
which was pasted the following clip
ping, taken from the North Carolina
Presbyterian shortly after the close
of the war. 1t gives the particulars
of the death of the last man killed
in line of duty before the close of
the most memorable struggle in the
worlds history. The father Of the
soldier was Rev. Mebane, who for
merly preached in Greensboro, and
who will be remembered by many of
our older citizens. ]-Greensboro
Patriot.
The Petersburg Index, speaking
of the description of burial-lot in
Pocahontas, near that city, makes
the following interesting mention of
the last devoted North Carolinian:
"There is buried here one soldier
"a Nsrth Carolinian-who, on the
night of the evacuation, was left at
Pocahontas bridge to fire it, and was
killed there, the last man of the re-
treating army. He was found dead
by the Federal forces in advancing,
and by them inferred, a blanket hiG
only coffin, and the apron of 6
woman who came there to weep hi
only shroud."
A correspondent of the Charlotte
Times says that his name was Cum
mings Mehane, of Madison, N. G..
and adds: cit affords me pleasure
to give the particulars of his death
On the night of the retreat of Gen
Lees army, Pocahontas Bridge was
left in charge of a Lieutenant and I
small body of infantry, with instruct
ions to burn the bridge as soon a
the troops crossed. Before all tn

and it was exceedingly dangerou
for any one to approach it. At thi

their services. Young Mebane, not

match was shot through the bod
with grape shot. He walked bacl
