is no wonder the laboring classes rail
to secure legislation favorable to

exists, the Sub-Treasury bill, or any

is raised that the Alliance, Wheel

clear of politics. Like Col. Polk, of
National organization, we believe
that the Alliance, if not political, is
not worth a fig. What it needs is to

Our work for twenty odd years

constant aim has been to aid in
their condition.
We commended the formation of the

As a citizen, and as an editor, the
movement has had our thorough
and still will have our most
dial co-operation in every phase or as-
of it which promises anything use-
to the farmers.
We, however, do not think it will be
of advantage to the farmers of
Carolina to make their Alliance a
cal body or political party. In its in-
we understood it to be
and we the gnat body of the
farmers of this State desire that it shall
remain so.
We have used every exertion we were
capable of to interest the farmers in
certain economic subjects that hear upon
prosperity, and which ought not to
be regarded as of a partisan nature.
Among these we may mention the
ration of silver as a money metal;
crease of our currency; the reduction of
interest; the lessening of taxes; the re-
of the price of manufactured
goods; abolishing the restraints on com-
so that our agricultural products,
which And a market abroad, would bring
better prices. For years we have point-
ed out the great of our
cultural interests, being in that matter,
years ahead of any other writer on that
subject.
We have not considered these mutters
as being of a partisan nature, but have
urged all to study with a view to correct
evils and promote the prosperity of the
country.
In addition we have called the
of the Southern particular-
to what we have designated as the
Northern System, by which the
of government have been largely placed
upon the South, while the benefits have
been enjoyed at the North. We have
illustrated by the pension business
which is a practical mortgage on the
South of five hundred millions of dollars;
and also by the protective tariff which is
a virtual mortgage on the South of sever-
billions of dollars. We have potted out
the conflict of interest between the man-
and the farmer, who is a con-
sumer, and how the law secures wages
of a year on an average for the labor
of men, women and children the
Northern factories, while the labor here

matters that have a great bee ring on

Delegates to County

Early Tobacco.
The first tobacco cured in the State
this season was cured in Wilson
county. The Reflector has a leaf
brought us by Mr. B. C. Pearce,
which was cured by Mr. Lucas in
the county mentioned. He cured a
barn full of the under leaves called
primings that are usually thrown a
Way. The specimen we have is good
and the grade it is said will readily
bring cents a pound. Mr. Lucas
sold his lot for cents. Saving and
curing these primings heretofore
thought worthless will be a good
thing for the farmers as the crop will
be just that much profitable.
We hear that Mr. G. F. Evans is
about to cure a barn.
Since the above we are in-
formed that Mr. Lucas sold his to-
at Davis Gregory's New
Johnson Warehouse, Oxford, in five
lots receiving therefor respectively at
the rate of and
per hundred pounds. These success-
say it is the
earliest sale of bright tobacco
made in North Carolina.

On June 19th, it was my pleasure

was an entire success. At o'clock

being introduced by Col. N. M. Ham-
a worthy gentleman of Bethel,
in a very handsome style, he at once

delivered in a forcible, zealous
The principal part of his address was
on the duty of parents in training
their children. At the conclusion
of his address a magnificent
was presented to him by J. H. John-
of Bethel, in behalf of the school.
Col. Sugg then introduced to the
audience Dr. President of
Trinity College, who favored us with
a short talk, which was very
and interesting. At o'clock
P. M. again arrived at the
my and found it packed with people
from all sections of the country. The
concert opened with a song by the
school followed by
a good many recitations, plays,
and songs. Both girls and
boys acquitted themselves well. The
concert was a grand success and
every thing passed off pleasantly.

ed with all the powers necessary to
fulfill his calling, he has always
given entire satisfaction where ever
his services have been rendered. C.
That excellent school, Greensboro
Female College, has an advertisement
in the Reflector to-day. Greenville
has a number of ladies who are grad-
of that institution and whose
careers are high testimonials for its
excellence. The President will be
glad to furnish to any who
may apply.

There was only a small attendance
at the meeting at the Academy last
Wednesday afternoon, but those pres-
showed they were deeply interest-
ed and fully in accord with the
movement to secure a good for
Greenville. Mayor F. G. James was
asked to over the meeting,
the object of which was explained by
Prof. John Duckett. Remarks were
made by several of the gentlemen
present and suggestions offered as to
the best steps to take to accomplish
the purpose in view. All were agreed
that a good male school was needed
and that the patronage would be
ample to sustain one. It was decided
to appoint a committee to take the
matter in hand, make of the
town and community to ascertain the
number of boys of proper age and the
probable number that would
attend the school, correspond with
teachers, and report the result at a
subsequent meeting of the citizens.
The appointed was J. B.
Yellowley, C. A. White, John
J. H. Tucker and T. J. Jarvis.
The committee is now at work look-
after all matters that tend to
success of the school. The
tor is fully confident that's good
male school will be opened in Green-
ville this fall, and what is more, from
the sentiment that came out at the
meeting we feel safe in predicting
that at no far distant day a
building will be in course of erection
for the a school Let the
good work go on. Greenville needs
to embrace every opportunity in this
line that is offered. Good schools
will do much to advance the town

An Address
To the Voters Carolina by the
Democratic Committee.

To Voters of North
At a meeting of the Democratic
State Executive Committee, held in
this city on the 10th instant, it was
resolved that the Democratic State
Convention be held in the city of
Raleigh on the 20th of
August, 1800.
It will devolve on this convention
to nominate for vacancies now filled
by of the Governor a
Chief Justice and one Associate
of the Supreme Court, and
Judges of the Superior Court for
First. Fourth. Fifth and Eighth
Districts. Also Judges of the So
Court for the Second, Sixth.
Seventh and Eleventh Districts, to
succeed the present incumbents,
whose terms and to adopt a
platform of principles, and for
other business as may properly
come before it.
The convention is called to meet
later than in to suit the con-
of the great masses of the
Democratic voters, so that a fuller
representation, reflecting a more
genera sentiment may be insured ;
and it is desirable that the
gates shall attend.
The Democratic party
the people of the State upon
the material and moral advance-
under its beneficent ad
ministration of affairs, and, having
redeemed its pledges in the past,
presents its claims to them for a
continuance of that confidence to
which it is justly entitled, fully as
sured that they will be recognized,
and the interests of all classes thus

B. Vance been elected to the
Senate of the United States will
expire next March, and the
lo lie chosen will
called upon to fill it. It behooves
us to see to it that no Republican is
elected to the Senate from this
State. The committee most earn-
requests a thorough, or-
in every township and
county in the State. It in essential

agricultural and interests
and the material welfare of oar
southern people, is earnestly asked,
and they are urged to enroll them
selves beneath the Democratic ban-
Let ovary Democrat realize the
responsibility that rests upon him
and meet it. There can be no
of the grand victory if we do our
fall duty. Unceasing is
the price which we must pay for
success, but when we consider what
defeat means to us, the sacrifice is
small. Over estimate, rather than
under estimate, the enemy and
go into the fight to
win it. We must prove equal to

Federal Taxes.
Free Press,
North Carolina now pays
for Confederate pensions, which
amount is raised by a tax of
three cents on each of property
valuation and nine cents on each
poll. North Carolina pays out in
indirect taxes as her share Fed-
pensions this year
which is more than was
her total State, county and
pal taxes in 1880. The pension bus-
has been so greatly enlarged
by the present Congress that North
Carolina will have to pay about

passed, victory will be ours and of Federal FT
white supremacy, which is
with Democratic rule, will be
assured to for a further term.

The Democrats last
sought to make some changes in the
laws and policy of the government
for the advantage of the farmers, but
the Republican Senate stood as a
stonewall against the passage
these measures. The
and in vain. The
Senate would not hear. They turned
a deaf ear to the patriotic statesman
who presented the facts of the situ-
and plead for the interest of
the farmers. We have now had the
proof of the pudding. The country
has tasted and the taste is not good.
The situation is known by expert
but it not rest merely on
the testimony of private individuals.
The Department, of Agriculture it-
self the fact before Congress,
and the facts speak louder coming
from that because the
is a Republican.

crop was 2412,898,000 bushels and
was valued at A crop

worth less than the year
before.
That in regard to corn.
Wheat shows the same result.
In the wheat crop amount-

crop of b was val-

against this year.
It is important that the various

The part; to-day

of the Department itself.

pension legislation will probably be
made by the present Congress that
will increase even this mammoth
sum. This country pays more pen-
than all other countries com-
The people can't realize how they
are robbed and burdened by pen-
and other Federal taxes. A
statistician, who has thoroughly
studied the question, says that the
pensioning scheme, as it operates to-
day, costs Southern farmers every
year one of each ten bales of cotton
they produce. When the pensions
aggregate, as they will next year,
each cotton planter
will contribute a bale and a half of
each ten he produces to help pay the
immense army of, in many instances
wealthy beggars. The soldier vote
is a big thing in the North and the
Republican party passes all sorts of
unjust laws to win and hold it, and
we are sorry to see some Northern
Democrats join with them in doing
so.
North Carolina pays a total of
about Federal taxes of
all kinds, which is about twenty
times as much as she pays for State
taxes. Yet if the Republican party
stays in power more Federal taxes
will have to be paid by the heavily
tax-ridden people to meet that par-
extravagance.
The reason there is comparatively
o little at the
Federal taxation is it is collected in-
directly; but this docs not prevent
its burdensome effect. In fact it is
far more burdensome; because for
every dollar collected in the shape of
tariff on imports about nine dollars

The Black Rot in grapes is here in

grape growers to be on alert to stop
its ravages. From what I see of it
this spring I am of the opinion that
this fungus will never be

of Virginia and This
is owning to the fact that dry, hot
weather is apt to conic here about
the time it begins to develop. I have
seen marks of it on a few vines, but
in every instance this year the
portion on the leaf been
checked before making spores, and
unless very wet weather comes it is
probable the fruit will not be
attacked. Only one or two vines at
the N. C. Agricultural Experiment
Station have been attacked, no
effort has been made to check it as
the design is to study this season its
progress. It is now well known that

Kill the Cotton and Tobacco
Moths.
The cotton caterpillar, boll worm
and tobacco worm cost the
farmers of the South over
annually. These three pests arc
the larval form of three species
moths. Then moths hide during
the day and fly during the early
hours o the night and again very
early in the morning. They may be
caught in lantern trays or poisoned
by baits, thus be prevented from
laying eggs which produce the worms.
These moths are very fond of
sweets. A bait made of one
quart of molasses, one of vine-
gar and a of Paris
green or white arsenic, to which a
gill of whiskey may be added, will
make a good bait. Place a portion
of the bait in a shallow pan or dish
and place floating on the liquid a few
strips of wood. The moths will
alight on the strips and sip the
liquid. The pans containing the
may be placed on stakes
through the dish for every

simple lantern tray made by sitting

some water on which is a layer of

many moths. Light the torch at
dark and keep burning three or four

long as moths arc
