But Little Farm Work Being Done
ON Account of the Weather.


on Account of the Weather.
Correspondence of the Sentinel
MANA, March 25-But little being
d )ne here on the Yadkin in the way
of farm work The grount il so wet
no blowing can be done Some have
sown oats, but there seems to be no
sign OF spring, judging from the fruit
trees The prospect is pretty fair
for large corn crop and If plant
beds do we'll the tobacco crop will
also be pretty good one Wheat
is beginning to show life The tarm
ers are patiently waiting for ground
to get in working order SO that they
can go at it with a vim The cold
winter and the late Legislature, ia
enough TO discourage any one, but
it is to be most earnestly hoped the
good old North State will never be
so disgraced again
Quite number of people here have
gone west to better their condition.
We will lose two worthy young men
today who go to Illinois, Mr. s L
Bruce and Roy Lakey. to seek better
conditions. They are worthy young
men and we trust they will do well in
their new homes.
Mr. C. W. Wade is now busy manu-
featuring smoking tobacco. He Is
working several hands. He will
begin at an early day the manufac
turing of plug tobacco. This will
give the farmers home market for
their tobacco this fall
Yadkin has now only twelve gov
eminent dIstill-rIes running.
The roads are in such an awful
condition farmers are finding a very
dull sale for their corn. No sale here
for it.
Several new j. P's will be sworn in

publicans to the core. E.

Senator Walsh, of Georgia.
What the South needs is small
farmers TO engage in diversified
agricultural pursuits. | do not be-
lieve that there is any country on the
habitat BILE globe, climate or location
considered, that will make as good
trims as the South will to industri-
GUS farmers 1t may be affirmed
that there is nothing that section OF
the country will not produce, except,
possibly, coffee. In the state of
Georgia they produce all the cereals
wheat, rye, oats, barley, corn
vegetables of every description, while
cotton grows everywhere. The South
abounds in opportunities for manu-
tacturers, having an abundance of
ra" materials-iron, coal, lumber,
granite and cotton. In my opinion
the South will never become finan
cially independent until she raises her
own breadstuffs and makes cotton a
secon dairy or surplus crop. What [
mean is that the first consideration
should be the cultivation of the soil
for home supplies. II for the next
five years the South should obtain
her bread and meat from within her
own territory and raised no more
than 5000 900 bales of cotton, in
that short period OF time she would
become absolutely prosperous and
financially INDEPENDENT. This year
she raised 100000 to 10000, 900
bales of cotton. Up to this time the
world has never had any pressing
need for more than Z $4,000 to
Z $50 900 from the United States;
8 900, 900 being the maximum.

The single gold standard makes
things cheap. Oh, yes, but it makes
labor cheap, 20, and makes money
scarce, at the same time It is bet
ter to have necessities little high in
price, with the opportunity to earn
sufficient money to buy them, than
to have them low in price with no
money to buy them. The double
standard of money is what thepeople
need and is what the people are
going to have if the signs OF the times
are not delusiye

A STATEMENT recently made by the
Secretary of Agriculture places some
Mos on tha ragged edge of fearful
suspense. 1t appears that some
congressman have been guilty OF
selling their quota of seeds, intended
for distribution among their cOnsti-
tuents, and pocketing the proceeds
of such sale. The Secretary threat
ems to publish the names OF the
offending members in his next report.

ID great consideration and
principles acknowledged, we
ID not view any interposition for
6e purpose of depressing them or
controlling in any other manner
their destiny by any European power
in any other light than as the mali
testation of an unfriendly disposition
towards the United States"
1t looks as if matters are tending
towards a point where the United
States will find it necessary TO either
enforce OF abandon the Monroe
doctrine.
Referring to the situation, the
Chicago Times Herald says:
at is possible that the demand
made by Great Britain on Nicaragua
is excessive, and ii enforced to the
letter would, in effect, annihilate the
sovereignty OF that republic and
erect upon it's ruin a monarchlal
establishment, which, und-r q fair
construction OF the Monroe doctrine,
would be repugnant to the determi-
nation of the people of the United
States not to permit any republican
form of governmcnt on this continent
to be overborne by and suppianted
with foreign monarchy. This
aspect of the contention, between
Great Britain and Nicaragua will re-
ce We full consideration at che hands
of the president and secretary OF
State
The Atlanta Constitution thinks
We may have to meet the opposition
OF England, Germany, France and
B-lguim il we stand by Venez lela, as
directed by the resolution Of Congress
which demands that England shall
settle her differences with Venezuela
BY arbitration aud not by occupying
her terrific ry. Tho Constitution
says:
Germany. like England, wants
money or land and France and Bel
gum are mad rs hornets BECAUSE
their ministers have been expelled
from VENEZUELA. To cap the climax,
the British insist that il they arbi
trate matters with Nicaragua no
American citizen shall sit on the
commission Here is not only II
dtfiance of the Monroe doctrine but
an insult to the United States"
Uncle Sam will have his hands
pretty full if he has to tackle all these
nations at the same time. The
Spanish affair has not been settled
vet, but we think there will be no real
trouble from this direction, unless
Spain should grow obstreperous by
reason of the possible ENHANCEMENT
of the United States with other
nations.

New York, June 13.-The Mail and
Express this evening prints statement
that Nicaragua has another indemnity
case on hand, this time from Germany.
The facts set forth in a long letter
from correspondent at Nicaragua,
under date of May 2S, are to the effect
that the present demand Is for damages
enormous in amount when compared
with the $4,000 just paid to Great
Britain in the Hatch case. The writer
claims to have unsuccessfully tried to
send the news by cable.
In the same letter the writers AYERS
that war between Nicaragua and
Costa Rica is a question of but a few
months, perhaps weeks. Nicaragua has
been aggrieved since Mr.. Cleveland's
arbitration on the boundary question,
claiming that she was Disseminated
against, and that part of her territory
was unjustly declared to belong to her
neighbor. Although there has been no
notification received, it is the belief of
prominent officials here that England
will make second demand for gross
insult offered her consul the night after
the warships withdrew from the harbor
of Corinto.

HETTY GOODS GRIMES.
1t Is Now Thought That She Murdered
Her Mother

Lancaster, Pa, June 13.-The sensa-
tional confessions of Mrs. Hetty Good
that she had murdered her grand
mother and her own child have caused
no end of talk here. Another crime is
now supposed to have been committed
at the Good home, near Bowmansville.
Two years ago Mrs Hetty Goods
mother died under the most peculiar
circumstances. The sickness of her
mother was a mystery, and when
neighbors called to see her, Mrs. Good
would not allow 1T, saying the invalid
was not in condition to be seen. She
died without any of her neighbors hav-
ing seen her and without medical at
tendance.
1t Is recalled now that Hetty Good
often complained that she was obliged
to support her mother. Frequently
she would grow angry over the mat
ter, and since the mothers death the
daughter has often talked very strange
about her mother.
