TO OVERTHROW BUTLER.
Tom Watson's July 4th Convention in
Nashville.

The Populists of the South. led
by the Hon. Thomas E. Watson, the
late Vice Presidential candidate,
have Joined in a movement to over
throw Marion Butler and the Ma
tional Committee of the party in
order to prevent any further attempt
at fusion with either of the two
great national parties, says an Atlanta
special to the Sun.
The movement really started some
weeks ago when the reformed press
called for national convention to be
held on the 4th of July in Nashville
for this purpose. In the last two
issues of Watson's organ, the Peoples
Paper, the editorial page has been
filled with denunciations of Marion
Butler and of the accredited leaders
of the party He declares that they
should be ousted from the seats of
power, and that the movement of the
Peoples party, should start afresh,
taking its cue from the proceeding
of the convention to be held in Nash
vile
"If," said Mr.. Watson, "Mr. Bry-
an is a Democrat, let him say SO,
that then we will know what he is.
If, as his friends assert, he is real
Populist, let him be honest enough
to quit parading in Democratic
clothes and come out as he should do
and not hang on to the tail of the
Populist coat "
This shows the spirit of the move
ment."
The Georgia convention will be
held June 22nd.

THE cause of earthquakes has
long been an interesting subject for
speculation and investigation, and
the shaking up of this part of the
crust of the old globe, this week, has
given it fresh interest.
Prof. Henry A. Rowland, of Johns
Hopkins university, says that scien-
lists do not clearly understand them.
He says:
"Some assert that they are caused
by waters of the sea pouring into
crevices in the earth's crust and thus
coming into contact with the fiery
elements in the earth's centre. The
result of this would be similar to
gigantic boiler explosion.
"Other theorists hold that earth
quakes are caused by the contraction
of the earth's crust. The earth Is
constantly cooling, and it is held
that the outer crust necessarily con-
tracts. Scientists of today seem
generally inclined to this latter theo-
rY.
'No one can predict the coming
of an earthquake nor why it is felt
in certain localities more than in
others except upon the theory that
disturbances in the crust of the
earth are generally regional and the
waves sent out die away after time.
These waves move more rapidly
than sound and also have about
the same horizontal velocity from q
heavy as from light quake. This
velocity is somewhere in the neigh
borhood of mile second. There
is really very slight backward anc
forward movement of the earth'l
surface. Such a movement of ar
inch would throw down nearly every
building under which it passed.
Earthquakes are more frequen
in volcanic countries because thu
earth's crust is thinner there, ant
not because of the presence of th'
volcanoes. The fact of volcanOe
existing is a proof of the thinness O
the earth's crust. In Japan, wher
earthquakes are of frequent occur
renee, scientists have set themselve
to study the phenomena. The seis
mograph, an instrument especial,
designed for the purpose, is mucl
used there. 1t is little used in thi
country because a railroad trail
passing within mile and half o:
it disturbs it.
"The earthquake tremors felt her
were no doubt caused by the con
traction of the earth's crust some
where beneath this section Of tn
country.

The "Kope" Incident.

Oil writes in the Atlanta Consti-
tuition:
"The republicans are after the
scalp of Collector Rogers, of the
Fifth internal revenue district of
North Carolina, and an interesting
point is involved in his case. The
district over which Mr.. Rogers pre-
sides was made famous about four
years ago by the nomination of Kope
Elias to the collectorship. Elias
was all right, but his name was a
mark for the newspaper paragraph
ers and Won him fame. He was not
confirmed, but subsequently, a Mr..
Carter was. He died about two
years ago and Collector Rogers, a
democrat, succeeded him"

The Greensboro Record saws:

"We'll venture the assertion that
if one-half of the voters of Guilford
county could have heard Prof.
Holmes lecture on good roads last
night, that an election for doubling

And the best object lesson in good
roads is taught by Mecklenburg
county. Guilford ought to send a
delegation down here to take look
at our highways.

TRADE IMPROVEMENT.

Il. q. Dunn's Commercial Agency
makes this very gratifyingreport for
last week: EVERY city reporting
this week notes an increase in trade
and nearly all bright crop prospects.
The great change in business is en-
phasized by the presence OF a multi
tude of buyers from all parts of the
country, by their statements of the
situation at their homes, and more
forcibly yet by the heavy purchases
they are making. But the custo-
mary signs are not lacking. The
strong rise in stocks, the growth of
bank clearings and railroad earnings
the heavy speculation in many pro-
ducts, but most of all in wheat, have
made the week one OF surprising in
terest, even to those who best re-
member the upward rush in 1879.
At the principal clearing houses,
country payments in July were for
the first time slightly larger than in
1892, and II per cent larger than
last year; in the first week of August
~ per cent larger than in 1892, and
2S.4 per cent larger than last year
and in the second week OF August
they are 17.9 per cent larger than in
1892, and 1871 per cent larger than
last year."

The greatest case OF dog eat dog

man who loved to smoke good
cigar, and an insurance company.
The former bought 1900 extra fine
cigars and had them insuredfor thler

manded his insurance, claiming they
had been destroyed by fire. The case
was taken to court and the Judge de,
c;ded IN favor of the young man.

Live Papers, Live Towns.

Dakota Farm & Field The cream
cry industry in South Dakota owes
much to the newspapers OF the state,
as they are all the time talking
creamery matters, more or less, and
assisting in everyway, but there is
vet room for more such assist
ance from the papers. As a
rule, the town that has good live
paper, which is back OF the creamery
for all its worth, is a live town, as is
attested by Dell Rapids, DeSmet, Iro-
quois, Milbank. Salem, Brookings
and others. What the Dell Rapids
Times here says of the creamery in
it's town is applicable of many other
towns i'm the state: "The Dell Rap
ids creamery is one of the institutions
to be proud OF. Since it was first es-
tablished hundreds and thousands OF
dollars have been distributed to the
farmers for milk. During the severe
pinch OF two years ago the creamery
was to the farmer what the oasis in
the desert is to the weary traveller.
The milk delivered at the creamery
was cash every month as regularly
as the rising and setting OF the sun.
1t is a most important factor in the
general progress of not only the city
but of the farming community as well
in TACT, the creamery has been an ed
ucator on the subject of dairying,
and many farmer has had his ideas
brushed up on the subject OF butter
making" c. = -.
