In less than three years says the
World that surplus has been
squandered and the Government
so burdened with new and per-
obligations that the Ways

ask the Secretary of the Treasury
to inform it whether or not the
country can meet its expenses
without the adoption of devices
for getting more money out of the
people.
And this startling change has
not been brought about by the
reduction of taxes. On the con-

solely to wanton waste

Much is being in some of the

of the town treasury caused
by the withdrawal of the

hole in the is

than this, even, the lovers of
good order in Charlotte
themselves had better make up a

licensing of the saloons. Further,
the suspension of the graded
schools altogether would work far
less harm the re-opening of
the saloons.

The Country Publisher.
The public should ever bear in
mind, says an exchange, that it is
a constant struggle with many
country publishers to keep their
paper going financially. The
business is made up of such small
accounts that many people think
that the trifling amount due from
them docs not matter ranch
paid promptly or not, forget-
ting that there may be thousands
entertaining the same idea, and
thus withholding from the pub-
his hard-earned dollars,
while not particularly meaning to
work a hardship. The better plan
is always to promptly pay in ad-
for a newspaper the moment
the subscription expires. The
paper will be all the better for
promptness i this matter, for no
man can get up a spicy, interest-
journal if his mind is harassed
by bills coming due, and which,
from the negligence of patrons, he
is unable to meet.
Test Your Seeds.
Thousands of dollars are lost
every year by sowing stale and
worthless seeds. This can be
largely avoided by purchasing
early and having the seeds tested
before sowing them- The N- C.
Experiment Station will advise
its friends, upon application, where
the best class of seeds may be
obtained, and will test samples
free of charge for citizens of the
State- Samples sent for test should
contain at least seeds, and
should be a fair average sample of
the original package The names
of the seller and price paid for the
seeds must in all cases be stated.
It requires two full weeks to make
a complete test of a seed sample.

or Star the
Indian of the Cheyenne tribe
who is traveling lecturing
with the object of awakening an
interest in the Indian both as to
his civilization and Christianity,
was here some time ago and de-
livered three lectures. We have
intended saying something in the
last two or three issues in refer-
to the subject matter of these
lectures but have been prevented
from doing so.
Mr. Star is a man of no ordinary
information- He seems to be fully
conversant not only with the his-
of his own race but that of the
white race also. He has a mag-
voice and speaks the
English language with remarkable
clearness. Ho feels deeply
interest in his own people and in
consequence is endeavoring to
enlighten the people generally in
reference to their past and present
and enlist their sympathies in be-
half of this race that seems to have
been badly treated.
He says there are
ans in this country and cut of this
number are savages. He
is very pointed in speaking of
these heathen here in our own
country with but little interest
manifested for their salvation. No
one can hear him in reference to
this without feeling a desire to
give these people the gospel.
He thoroughly convinces you that
there has never been any real
effort by the Government to civil,
this race. Instead of that they
have kept away from
by being driven farther and
farther from it. The only effort
that has been made he says is to
shoot them into it. This has
never been successful with any
people. How do you expect it to
be with the Indian He says the
white people showed their
years ago to be far inferior to
what it is now. If this race has
not become civilized in hundreds
and hundreds of years how do you
expect the Indian to be in so
short a time Mr. Star shows that
the Indians can be civilized and
also, if they were in
contact with these things. The
system of appointing agents for
the Indians is fully ventilated and
shown to be rotten to the core. Of
the solemn treaties made with
this people only one remains
broken, the one made by Jackson
about fifty years ago. The Indian
did not break them either. Most
if not all of them were caused to
be broken by this sys-
of the United States in
pointing salaried agents to go
among them to cheat and defraud
them and give them whiskey until
they make one or two of a tribe
commit some crime, then the
United States declares war against
the whole tribe for the act of two
or three- This is not the way they
treat other races- The Indians
never come in contact with any of
the better class of white people-
Nothing but the scum of society
goes among them and this is to
cheat and them.
He shows that it cost the United
States about to fight
the Indians every year and that
agency system is the prime
cause of this- The other principal
cause is that when any land which
they possess under a treaty
is found to be valuable on account
of its minerals and a body of land
sharks along and settles
down among them, others follow
and the Indians see their hunting
ground passing from them. They
make complaints but these com-
plaints are to be made through
these agents who never make them.
Then as the great father at Wash-
does not interfere to stop
them the Indians scalp a few, as
they have been taught that if they
will do this a fellow will never
come back to trouble them again.
This the agents report and the
great father makes them get farther
and farther and gives their lands
to the white people.
There are many in these
lectures that are matters of fact
and observation and they are so
put by this noble Christian Indian
that they cannot fail to awaken a
deeper interest in these people.
He says the Indians only hope
lies in the people. They must
right these things and he trusts
that by traveling from State to
State he may in some way con-
tribute to the relief of his
We are satisfied that the

WASHINGTON LETTER.
ACORNS FROM BLACKJACK.
Mr Regular Correspondent. I promised your readers that I

man of the Ways and Means com I. The farmers are delayed in their

Rev. T. A- Boone, pastor of the
Methodist church in Lexington,
has just finished a series of
mons on the second coming of
Christ. He has long made a
careful study of this question
through the prophesies of the
Bible, from which alone he draws
his conclusions, and feels
that the millennium will occur in
the year 1897, only five years from
Dispatch.
This is all and any
preacher is very much of his
line when he goes to arguing
or trying to prove any definite
time for the world to come to an
end. The Bible teaches as plainly
as it teaches anything that no
the day, not even the
angels in heaven, when the wind-
up of the affairs of this man
sphere is to take place.
have been recently told about
these committees antagonizing
each other on the floor of the
House- Mr. Bland says that him-
self and all the rest of the free
coinage Democrats are as
anxious to see the bills passed
putting wool, cotton ties and bind-
twine on the free list, which
have been prepared by the Ways
a Means committee, as they are
to pass the free coinage bill, and
that they have never had any
of antagonizing any of them.
They only ask that a time be set
for the consideration of the free
coinage bill, and they will utter no
complaint if the Committee on
Rules decide that their bill be
taken up after the tariff bills are
passed.
The story that Mr. Mills intend-
ed offering an entire tariff bill as a
substitute for the first one of the
tariff bills taken up by the House,
had just as little foundation. Mr.
Mills has no idea of doing any-
thing of the kind. He favors each
of the kind. He favors each of
the bills prepared by the Ways
and Means Committee, the only
difference of opinion between him-
and the majority of the com-
being that he would like to
see the entire tariff reformed at
one time, instead of going at it by
He will heartily sup-
port each of the bills, as steps in
the right direction.
Congress, or as many of its
as spare the time from
important committee work, will
leave here for Chicago to-night,
guests of the World's Fair com-
of that city, returning next
Wednesday morning.
Representative Rayner, of Mary-
land, this week delivered one of
the strongest speeches against
trusts ever heard on the floor of
the House. He reminded the Re-
publicans that neither the Inter
state Commerce law nor the Sher-
man act passed at the last session
of Congress, had prevented the
continued formation of the trusts
and combinations which it was
their alleged purpose to eradicate ;
that trusts still blossomed and
flourished as they accumulate in
every commercial ; that they
still defied the law and the
diction and mandates of the
courts, and that they still, with
arrogant front and bold
executed their s
without the slightest fear of in-
punishment of the slightest
concern about any encroachment
upon their prerogative- They
so powerful and influential that
the legislatures of States seem
to tremble at their presence, and
the Congress of the United State
had stood by with folded hands
and permitted them, with an iron
heel to trample upon the rights of
the people.
The committee to investigate the
Pension Office has had a room as-
signed it in the capital
and it will hold daily sittings of
several hours until its work is
completed. Representatives Coop
of Indiana, and Enloe, of Ten-
will assume to positions of
prosecutors being thoroughly
familiar with most of the charges
brought against the bureau.
Chairman heeler, of the
committee, says he enters
upon the investigation without
prejudice, and that he will be gov-
entirely by the evidence
presented to the committee.
The House committee on
has designated Messrs. J.
D. Warner, M. D. Egan, Sherman
Hoar and Ezra B. Taylor a sub-
committee to conduct the
of the
authorized by resolution of the
House. Mr. Sherman Hoar will
act as Secretary to the sub-com-
and he will be glad to hoar
from any persons desiring to aid
in finding out about this business.
It is expected that the first hearing
before the committee will take
place the latter part of next week.
The House adopted a resolution
calling upon the Postmaster Gen-
for information relating to
contracts made under the ocean
mail subsidy act- Representative
Enloe is the author of the
and he wishes to use the
formation asked for in preparing
an argument in favor of
asked for in preparing an
in favor of his bill for the
repeal of the subsidy act, which he
is confident will be passed by the
House.
Democratic absentees are giving
the leaders of the House the con-
of this practice will
prove very embarrassing, as it
enables the Republicans to tie the
House up at any time by refusing
to vote, thus breaking a quorum,
as was done several times this
week.
The Indian appropriation bill,
which is less than the
one passed last year, which carried

chased from various tribes, is now

was to show a very nice picture to
some prominent persons, secure a
picture of some member of the
family and offer to enlarge it upon
being paid a dollar to defray the
expense of sending it to N. Y.,
and returning the enlarged picture.
He was well dressed, about ft.

he carried not less than dollars
from this place and Burlington

COTTON MARKET is lower now than at any former period
in about forty years; this has been brought about by the
dented movement of the crop since September last, and the large
accumulation of cotton all over the world. Many believe we will
see an improvement in prices later on in the season, when the
movement must be necessarily light; and if any of our friends,
who have cotton, would like to raise money on same and hold it
longer, we are prepared to advance them to 25.00 per bale

The liquor dealers of New York have
met in solemn council and drafted a bill
to suit themselves, which they have
presented to the New York legislature.
It will vastly surprise me if their pup-

the liquor laws passed during the last
quarter of a century shall be repealed.
They want saloons opened on Sundays,
concert halls and dives opened all day and
all night, free at all hours at

of police interference, repeal
of the civil damage, act, the free right to
sell to boys and girls, and all license

teacher told him that the
Nero played the fiddle while Rome
He went home and told his
mother that the Nero was
playing the fiddle so burned

most identical with the language of
teacher, and yet the boy declared that
they burned Rome because they did not
like the tune that Nero played. He
most got it right. But in almost stating
the truth be missed it the more com-
And yet we must not judge the colonel
too harshly We cannot demand too
of a man who makes no profession
of Christianity. Especially we must not
be severe in judgment upon the failure
of such a man to know true Christianity
when we remember the tragic blunders
of the apostles themselves. Christ's own
chosen followers misunderstood him up
to the very day of his death. They drew
their swords and attempted to defend
him by force. He had to rebuke them
and to explain again that his kingdom
was not of this not of force, but
of the spirit. His leading disciples were
found wrangling over the first places in
the kingdom temporal which they sup
posed be had come to establish.
Though they lived thus in daily con-
tact with Christ, so far above their range
of vision his real mission that not
until after his death did the meaning of
his words begin to dawn their
souls. When we remember how his
own chosen misunderstood him. and his
professed followers have belied their
professions and have failed to under-
stand his mission through years of
the past, and have committed so many
crimes in his sacred name, we not
be too harsh in our judgment of such a
man as Ingersoll if he fail to find
secret of the great heart of the true
Christ. The failures of men through all
these ages to comprehend the height and
depth and glory of his mission only bring
out in bold relief sublime proportions
of tho truth that he came to teach.

ye did it unto me. Enter thou into the
kingdom prepared before the foundation
of tho In other words, Christ
directly taught that the heart faith
which is of the essence of his religion
always embodied itself in life.
Christianity is a life. The Bible is a
book of life. Therefore the Bible is a
book of eternal power. It will ever
and move and save the lives of men. It
is alive, it throbs with life
of the race, with the life of as
folded in the race. The Bible is not a
systematic theology. It does not pro
fess to set forth for the guidance of the
mind of man a systematized and con-
scheme of philosophy. Strip the
Bible of the rubbish of traditionalism,
and there can be read into it no sys-
scheme of sacred philosophy. It
is the simple record of life. It contains
contradictions, paradoxes, mysteries.
These contradictions are the contra-
dictions of life. The paradoxes are the
paradoxes of life. Its mysteries are the
mysteries of life. As the secrets of life
elude the scalpel of the surgeon and the
biologist, so secrets of divine life
elude the dissecting knife of the keenest
philosopher or theologian.
IN
The supremacy of Christian truth is
not based on any philosophy taught by
Jesus Christ It rests upon the person-
of Christ. His creed was his life.
He did not come into the world to talk
truth. He was the truth. The
only supreme truth is that embodied in
life. No man who knows anything about
the subject of comparative religion today
pretends to deny that the divine is found
in all religions. that Jesus taught
had been taught before. had not
left the world in total before the
advent of Christ. He had spoken to all
races and to all peoples. The unique
personality of Jesus consists In the fact
that be summed up in life truth that
was thus gathered from the four quarters
of the earth and from the remotest ages.
He incarnated truth. He lived the
truth. Abstract truth is the commonest
thing in the world; it is everywhere. It
grows on the housetop. It is the com-
sound in the street. But abstract
truth does not save a world until it is
embodied in flesh and blood.
Herein we find the secret of the
nation, necessity for the incarnation,
the secret of the power of the
God, who had spoken to the race
through divers prophets in the past, now
in the fullness of time spoke to man
through man, through the incarnation
of truth. When that Man came in
man history, who truly said, am the
way, the truth and he came to
whom every knee must bow at last and
every tongue confess. Such a man is his
own vindication. Christ is, in fact, his
own vindication. He never taught a
duty that he did not live. Ho never
preached a hope that he not rest bis
full weight upon. His disciples were
not literary or philosophic adherents or
they were followers in action
Truth itself is merely a bullet When
the explosive power of life is placed be-
hind it then only is it power. He only
hath the Son who hath life.
The Christian is the man who partakes
of this divine life. He is not a man who
accepts a given code of morals. He is a
man in whose soul there springs a
fountain of everlasting life that makes
its own code of morals. He is the one
man in all the world who is free from
any code of morals. There is one law
only that binds him, and that the law
that is inclusive of all
THE COLONEL'S THEOLOGY.
The effort of Colonel Ingersoll to de-
fine Christianity in view of such facts is
pathetic. We are sorry for a man who
knows so little and yet talks
about a subject so profound. He re-
minds me of a man who was fascinated
with the discoveries of science. He de-
with enthusiasm that he could
understand how the astronomers could
compute distances from star to star and
give their relative proportions; he
said that the mystery of mysteries to
him was how on earth they ever found
out their names Before such ignorance
we stand dumb. We do not know where
to begin. It pathetic.
Christianity of Christ is
that heart faith which embodies itself in
a of love. Colonel Ingersoll says
that if the founder of Christianity had
only said that who lores his fellow
men, who is kind, honest, just and
charitable is to be forever all
would have been well. How pathetic

INCARNATE.
Love declared by Christ to be the one
principle upon which the
judgment Is conducted. life of Jesus
Christ was a supreme service of love.
He to minister, not to be ministered
unto. His life was one supreme mys-
tery of lore. He stands at the gates of

the Mind, heals lepers, weeps toe
grave of the loved dead, calls back the
broken life. His whole life was one
effort of love toward man. He
broke his life as a box of rich perfume
and poured it out without stint He
sought to give the world a home; had
none for himself. Foxes had holes and
tho birds of the air nests, he had not
where to lay his bead.
To be a Christian is to believe in
Christ; that is. not to believe anything
about him, but to believe in him. That
is, to eat his flesh and drink his blood,
to partake of his life and his spirit As
he incarnated the truth, to incarnate the
truth. As we incarnate his spirit, so are
we of Christ. His spirit is the spirit of
love. Love is the universal judge, the
principle of love the only statute by
which the race of man is to be arraigned.
This principle is not confined in its
plication to the territory of the Bible or
the preacher. It Is not limited by the
limitations of language.
VOICE OF TEARS.
Love is the universal language of
race in ail ages, all nations, all climes.
I may not be able to understand my
neighbor in a foreign tongue, but if I see
in his eye the tear of suffering, I know
the language of tears. All hearts are
tuned to the universal language of love.
The sigh, the groan, tear, the heart-
ache are words known to every human
heart and interpreted by every human
heart By this universal principle is
man to be judged by Christ The
heathen world that has never heard of
Christ shall rise before his throne and
be judged by this eternal truth, and
from among them there will be those
who look in astonishment the face
of the and exclaim in wonder,

brethren, in sorrow and ye
Aid it unto me.
Faith is a moral attitude of the soul.
Christianity is such a faith embodied in
a life of love. A man who practices one
thing and professes another is what he
practices, not what he professes. Real
Christianity is that power that trans-
forms the life of man and rules it by the
principle of love. So that a man who
feels its divine power can walk up and
take his enemy by the hand and forgive
forget all the bitterness and hatred
of the past in the supreme thought of
Christian love. The Christianity that
has not this transforming power in life
is a and a delusion. The Chris-
that bas this power is its own
vindication, is invincible in its eternal
power.
A DRUNKARD REDEEMED.
Mr. Moody was preaching in a foreign
country. A drunken brute of a
band consented to accompany his wife
to the meetings and leave her, while he
went off again to his dissipation. The
press at the door was so great he stopped
for a moment to see his wife well through
in safety. The pressure of the crowd
was so great, however, that with her he
was carried into the building against his
will While there he heard this simple
apostle of Christ tell the old story of
love. His soul was swept with its power.
He opened the windows of his heart and
the messenger of eternal love entered
and took possession of his son. He
went back home with his wife crying
with joy. His children at his approach
hid in terror. He walked into his
and drew them from their hiding places;
told them they need not fear Said
have a father now There
will be no more terror in this
Those who had known him laughed
to scorn his professions. They gave him
a few weeks in which to return to his
wallowing, but from that day forth for
seventeen years he has lived a life of
tenderness and of love, of truth and of
temperance, and over that home cursed
with the shadow of sin and of selfish-
and of brutality there bas hovered
the ministering angels of peace. Chris-
is the power that transforms and
redeems the soul of man and melts into
love that which is of self and of sin.
The Christianity that is less than this is
not the Christianity of Christ.
