"WINDY BILLY'' HENDERSON
He Passed Through Winston-A Sill
yer Republican, 10 to L.

Col. "Windy Billy" Henderson, of
Lexington, whom the Cha rlotte OBJ
server urged for place in President
McKtnley's cabinet, passed through
Winston last week on his return
home from Wilkes county, where he
has been for several days looking after
his extensive farming interests.
Col. Henderson is Republican but
he thinks ''all the silver that can be
dug out OF the mines of Colorado or
other places should be Immediately
coined into legal tender silver dollars
for the use OF the people at the lawful
ratio Of 16 to l, without the consent
or aid OF any other nation on the side
of Gods green EARTH"
The Colonel is not "stuck" on the
Klondike gold fever. He looks upon
the whole thing as an enormous hum
tug, gotten up by some gold bug
syndicate to swindle the poor farmers
and laboring men, the bone and sinew
Of American manhood and American
wOmanhood, and to try TO keep down
the silver question, the dollar of our
daddieS and mammies."

food and clothing. The number of appli-

that of December last year. Many of
them have not, heretofore, been compelled

not properly provided with the necessities
of life, and when P~oormaster Barck ar

dozen women and children waiting for
aims. Most of the u~nfortunates were poor

OUR HORSE EXPORT TRADE.
Secretary Wilson Sees a Great Field
in European Markets.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. "a, 1897
Secretary Wilson of the Agricultural De-
partment is displaying much interest in
the encouragement of the expectation OF
horses for sale in European markets. He
believes tina there is no good reason why
the United States should not supply many
of the horses used abroad, and he is espe-
cially impressed with the belief that we
could breed in this country, particularly in
the Western States, horses which could
be serviceable for cavalry purposes.
The agents of the Department in Lon
don and other places have been instructed
to make reports on this subject, covering
the general questions and the style of
horse, the demand, price, etc. This in
formation will be embodied in one of the
bulletins soon to be issued. Charles e.
Stubs, an agent of several horse assoc
Citations in this country, will leave for
Europe in a few days bearing an homo
rary commission from the Department.
Mr.. Stubs special mission is to inves-
tigate the horse markets of Europe, with
special regard to cavalry forses, and such
data as he obtains of general interest to
horse breeders who might be induced to
embark in this new field of competition
will be turned over to the Department
for publication.
