ABANDONED FARM LANDS.

The fact that many farms in Virginia
and North Carolina, that once earned
IL sure profit over and above cost of
production, and besides produced susie
nance for home needs in abundance and
to spare and affording comforta BILE
and happy homes for large families.
have been abandoned since the demone-
tiZation of silver metal, because the
price-value of the products have fallen
below the cost of production leads to
the inquiry: are these States to con-
tinue in the future to maintain rank as
agricultural States?
North Carolina agriculture is replete
with conspicuous examples of success
achieved. and victories won, in the no
blest OF the worlds occupations. and
the present should, under proper mon
etary conditions. also afford abundant
evidence that man may win elf he will
employ what God has given him as
equipment, the most fertile lands in
Virginia and North Carolina. to be
found in the world, not only compe
tence. but wealth as n tiller of the soil.
to the large villages. towns and cities OF
these and other States?
The movement from the rural dis
tricts to the cities, especially to large
manufacturing places, has become so
general. that the labor supply is greater
than the demand, and thousands are
put to great straits TO find employment
to enable them to earn the actual neces-
saries of life. Often we see or hear of
numerous instances Of this kind. This
condition of things is indeed lamenta
bic. and appears to be on the increase.
There are hundreds of thousands of
acres of land where once happy fami-
lies lived in comparative affluence. and
where strong hands and willing minds
made the earth bring forth the grains.
the fruits and the grasses of the ener-
Eetic husbandman. that now lay idle.
because farming has become unprofita-
bic. owing to the extremely low and
constantly falling price-values of agri-
cultural products.
If portion of the laborng popula ton
OF our large villages, towns and cities
could see any chance of success in
farming at the prevailing low prices.
they would break from their present
environments. seek homes in the coun
try and commence life anew. the change
would rebound TO the benefit of all.
Those left behind would then find annie
opportunities to engage in remunera-
tive employment and much of the suf
fering occasioned by crowded labor
marts would cease to exist. These peo
pie have been raised on the farms. and
know nothing about anything else be-
sides farming.
If those who were once farmers could
have any inducemcnt to return TO their
first love and till the now idle acres. the
agricultural portion of. not only Vir-
ginia and North Carolina, but our en-
tire Southland, in every line of bust
ness and profession, would gradually
and surely experience real prosperity. TO
the great advantage Of the cities. whose
prosperity is absolutely dependent ul-
timatcly upon that of agriculture.

Let us begin by making Il distinction
between the romance and the novel,
and adopt fictitious narrative: a ROM
ance concerns itself with incident, Il
novel with character; n romance may
deal with the supernatural and the pre-
ternatural to any extent; novel may
deal with these only SO far as they
AFFECT the development of character.

morning the esteemed Washington Post
takes occasion to say the denial comes
too late, that 1t should have been made
sooner; that Mr.. Devlin said he had
Senator Jones sanction, and that the
Senator appointed Gov. Altge!d on the
Advisory Committee, etc.
The assertions OF fact in this article
are untrue. Mr.. Devlin did not have
authority from Senator Jones to make
any such statements, and Mr.. Devlin
did not say he had such authority. SEN
ator Jones has never appointed an Ad-
Visory Committee. and therefore could
not have appointed Gov. Altgeld upon
such n committee. Senator Jones has
for two months been very critically i'll.
He has not been permitted to SOC any
papers or any of his mail. in the hope
that rest and quiet would bring perma-
nent relief from his trouble. l. there
fore. cannot understand how the Post
could expect him to deny something of
which he had no knowledge, and vet It
could have secured the facts in the
case had 1t taken the trouble to send
one of its young men to the Senator's
mouse, where I would have been glad
to have given them any information.

ever ne did say was an expression OF

m1ttee had nothing whatever to do.

That knocks everything from under

may not be at all responsible for such
SANDERS and calumnes upon the De-
mocracy which it spreads in its little,
circle with "ghoulish glee," we beg in
all kindly charity to suggest that to
become notorious as circulator of
Hanna lies is not more desirable for n
Journal than to become n dealer in
Eagan or Alger beef; and we therefore
pray it to be more careful hereafter, and
take n lesson from our example in this
matter,-to seek the truth as to De-
mocracy from its headquarters, and not
from Hanna emissaries, commissaries.

supplies.

We do not know that there IS any
thing said, or to be said, personally
against Senator Martin, of Virginia.
except that he is q consenting benefi-
ciary, If he was not also an active CO.
adjutor. In the means which six years
ago defeated Fitzhugh Lee and sorely
disappointed the people of Virginia. IT
General Lee refers to this at all in his
letter OF withdrawal it is in the gen.
eral terms of the last paragraph of that
letter. as follows:
In conclusion, I express the hope that
the people of Virginia will be given i'm
the near future the opportunity for the
selection of n Senator to represent their
interests in the Senate of the United
States. and that no man shall occupy
that high position unless he can read
his title clear"

and construction are fully satified by
taking 1t as an endorsement of the
movement all over the country to Sc
cure some proper popular participation
in the selection of U. S. Senators. THE

Still does (and in the present case).
