ALLIANCE IN DANGER
If the Third Party Secures a Following
in the State This Year.
At the request of some friends
in and out of the Alliance, and de-
siring to advance the best interests
of the masses of the people of my
native State. I write to give my
views upon the Third Party which
some over-zealous members of the
Alliance talk about establishing in
North Carolina. I am a member
of the Alliance, ready at any time
to advocate, defend and maintain
the dignity as well as the demands
of the order. I see great danger
not only to the best interests of
the- State, but also to the Alliance
in the suggestion of organizing
an independent party. If a third
party is formed in this State it will
endeavor to draw a very large per
of its vote from the Alliance.
If a sufficient of Alliance
men who have heretofore been
Democrats and voted with the
Democratic party, go off into and
vote with the third party, it would
bring ruin home to the people of
North Carolina. Then instead of
the Alliance bettering our
it would pull us down, and
carry us from bad to worse, to utter
degradation and ruin. The aim
and object of the Alliance is not
to form political parties and fight
political battles inside Alliance
halls. To do that would bring
discord, contention and division
in the order, and be an injury to
the Alliance cause, and in the end
the Alliance would accomplish
nothing-
The Alliance has come
to stay. It is the greatest
ever organized on the
American continent. But the Alli-
not come to pull down or
destroy or overthrow good govern-
but to amend f time to
time and restore good government.
It has not to make war and
desolation in the land, but to make
peace and restore the people to a
much needed prosper- It has
not come to divide and go off into
a third party that will be only a
sensation and accomplish nothing.
The Alliance favored and made a
Railroad Commission in North
Carolina that has saved thousands
of rs to the people in the way
of taxes, freight and passenger
traffic. Look at the House and
Senate journal and see who voted
for that bill. It will disclose who
your friends arc
Let all Democrats remain in the
Democratic party, whenever
tho Alliance makes a demand or a
request, and our political friends
oppose it, let rs meet together in
council and advise together for the
best interest of the State and the
country's good. I verily believe
that our friends in the Democratic
party who are not members of the
Alliance will meet us more than
half way. By taking this course
we can accomplish much good.
I have given the third party
movement much thought. Besides,
I have kept myself posted by read-
one North Carolina daily and
six weekly papers of all parties,
Alliance and non-Alliance, and
have seen no good reason ad-
by any, how or in any way,
a third party can bring about the
relief the Alliance demands. This
being so, I appeal to my brother
in North Carolina
who are Democrats to remain in
the Democratic party, and

HE IS A DEMOCRAT.
Last week we wrote an editorial
in to Col. Harry
of this The Reflector said
what it believed to be true- It
spoke in the interest of the Demo-
party. It had no other
motive. We could not help say-
some things in reference to the
press because we believed Col.
Skinner had been misrepresented-
We repeat with emphasis this fact
after having read what some of the
papers have had to say in refer-
to this editorial.
The and Observer says in
its general observations it endorses
what the Reflector says, but that
it denies that the press of State
has been unfair towards Col-
Skinner but instead that he has
been treated very gently, and that
the papers have been very
able in regard to him- We con-
fess that we fail to see much gen-
and in saying
that a man is aiding and abetting
a third party, that he is placing in
jeopardy the Democratic party,
that he advises that the primaries
shall appoint men who shall select
delegates to go to Raleigh to the
Democratic Convention, take
session of the Convention, adopt
such measures as th desire, send
delegates to the Omaha
instead of the Chicago Con-
Col. has been accused
of these and various other things,
not less to be condemned. If they
are true he deserves to be severely
If they are not true it
is misrepresentation to accuse him
of them. We say that none of
them are true.
Heirs Observer says his
speeches have been correctly re-
ported. When they have been the
report states every time that he
declared himself a Democrat from
birth. He states plainly and
that he is opposed to third
party. We know he advises
ways against the formation of an-
other party. How can it be said
that he favors these things when
he openly and fearlessly opposes
them all- It would be strange
policy to favor these and declare
openly in every speech he makes
that he is opposed to them. The
only reasonable solution is that he
does not favor them but is a
thorough going Democrat. So
much for what the and Ob-
server says in reply to our
The Salisbury Daily de--
some space to the same
and says that in the main it
endorses what the Reflector says
but that in some very essential
points there is a vast difference-
It pleads guilty to but
denies misrepresenting Col. Skin-
and goes farther and says that
he deserved severer words than
were addressed to him- We refer
the Herald to what has been said
above in reference to the
against the Colonel and repeat
that the says he is not
guilty of any of these things. The
Herald assumes that Col. Skinner
favors the third party because he
has spoken at the same times and
places that Col- Polk and others
have, and advocates the demands
of the Alliance, or at least a part
of them. Col- Skinner advocates
now what he did before Polk knew
anything about such measure.-and
before the Alliance was born- He
advocated them when he was
for the Legislature by a
Democratic convention as a Dem
He advocated them in
Ha advocated diem
while in the legislature. He was
. a member of the Demo
Executive Convention of the
he advocated them and
hie Democracy was not questioned
by eve sect of the
Democrats- We would ask the
i it treason to
what the Herald is now ad-
The repeats
what it said before that Col. Skin-
is only acting consistently
when he advocates the measures
for which he is abased. Tho re-
cord of the man shows this to be
an undeniable fact- The Herald
says that Skinner has done
more to wean men from their
to the Democratic party
than all the out spoken Third
party men The doc-
he advocates then must be
popular with a large number of
Democrats. In fact if we are not
very much mistaken they are
all a part of the platform of the
Democratic party of 1890 except
the sub-treasury- That platform
also endorsed financial reform but
not the special bill known as the
sub-treasury bill. We do not see
that the advocacy on
of this measure is to be made
the test of a man's Democracy- It
is not a State matter, it would not
accomplish a thing if it were in-
in the State platform, if
every officer in North Carolina
favored it, it could not hasten its
passage as a law. Our
as has been seen could do
nothing but endorse it and instruct
its representatives in Congress to
vote for it. It is a national issue
and should not be used to disrupt
the State Democracy. We believe
that Col. Skinner will and can
have great influence in keeping
the Alliance in the Democratic
party. There was no division two
years ago and if both Alliance and
non-Alliance will concede to each
other honesty of purpose there
will be no division this time, but
when you read or drive a man out
of the Democratic party, if he don't
want to go into the Republican
party ho must go into a third
party.
The Herald says Col- Skinner
wants office as bad as the
Ton wants subscribers. This may
be true- It is certainly his
and as long as he remains the
true Democrat that he is there is
every prospect that he will set
one.
The Harold wants to know if
Reflector means to inti
mate that the men mentioned
who will not stand quietly by
and see Col. Skinner misrepresent-

Col. Skinner is stat-

The above is commended to the
careful consideration of Col. Harry
Skinner, who while professing to
be a Democrat is aiding the laird
party machine- As Col. Skinner
does not see the Herald we ask
tho Greenville Reflector to call
his attention to the above, and to
say to him that, in the opinion of
Democrats up this way, it fits his
case Herald-
The Herald quotes the above
and says that it fits Col. Skinner's
case precisely. We think the
editor misconceives the above
quotation from the Chronicle. It

Col- Skinner, openly oppose a
party but those who favor a
third party. Col. Skinner only
advocates some of the demands of
the Alliance and to show that the

There is not a Democratic paper

political wisdom in abusing the

the assertion that if this course is
continuously and generally per-

North Carolina will be given over
to the Republicans and those who
do these things will be
for it.

that he advocates the sub-treasury

in the House are in favor of

if given an opportunity, but it is
equally true that a majority of the
democrats are opposed to the
of a gag rule to pass that or

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, D. C, April 1st
Mr. Harrison is arranging a hole
for himself to crawl through

nomination grow dangerous by
concentrating upon somebody, or
should he become convinced, like
Mr- Blame, that no Republican
can be elected, by having his
friends hint it around that he will

in advance that his nomination
will be made on tho first ballot-
In view of the spread-eagle com

thing for this country,
though it must be humiliating to
Mr. Harrison when he compares
the tone of his entirely

his admirers to have been an
with that of Lord
bury, which Is extremely friendly,
and which also shows that there
was as little reason for the latest
war scare which Mr. Harrison
fathered, as there was lot the one
concerning Chili. The
part about this sort of thing
is that it causes the people to lose
confidence in the administration,
and sometime when there is real
danger of war they may refuse to

have expressed regret that the preacher
denounced crime so vigorously without
having in Ms possession documentary
evidence to fix the crime on individual

I of crime is one thing; the fastening of
that crime the individual culprit
is another. It is not necessary to find
feathers in tho teeth of to know
the fact that I have lost a chicken. It
is my duty to proclaim my loss. The
fixing of is the duty of the officer
of the law. The failure to fix that guilt
does not restore the chicken or make my
loss any less a painful fact
Tho response on the part of the
directly attacked has been quick
and painful. Tammany has wept
briny, globular
tears Tammany weeps not at her own
sins but at degeneracy of the modern
in falling so low as to mention
its name before a decent audience.
Well, it is rather hard on the

if Tammany's sense of the sacred and

used to look on a preacher with a
sort of curious contempt I did not
class my father in this thought of a
preacher. Knowing him as did in all
the intimate relations of home as the
man, meeting him in all sorts of con-
and having all sorts of personal
interviews and encounters with him in
the process of life, I did not include him
in this concept I once had an idea
that a clergyman was a sort of sexless
monstrosity, not quite a man. not a
woman. I have encountered this idea
frequently in world of today. There
are a great many people who thus re
preachers, and the roan who holds
the preacher in such esteem is a man
whose life cannot be touched by the
preacher's words. People do not have
respect for a power that does not lay
hold of life.
AT ALBANY.
Those medical students with their
knives began to slash a dead body.
They joked about the corpse, treated it
with the utmost contempt, but when
one of them inserted his knife the corpse
sat up and looked around, and those
young men got up and moved out of
that building. They got out in a
Their respect for that man rose at least
in sixty seconds. The secret
of this increase of respect was simply
the manifestation of life.
No preacher can move the modern
world who does not lay a firm grasp upon
the life of that modern world. All
problems are today social prob-
and all social questions are
cal questions. Every scheme of
every dream of madman, every
theory of nihilist, becomes at last a
of politics. The villain who sits
down in the secret chamber of his own
darkened heart and concocts a plan of
enlargement of his life of vice will have
a bill introduced at Albany, if you do
not watch him, to legalize his methods.
Political questions are now inseparably
woven and interwoven with questions
of religion and of society. You can no
more separate them than yon can tear
out the heart of the civilization of the
century.

for the preacher who is out of his sphere
when he enter politics, for if a man
keeps out of politics in this world his
sphere is a very small affair. These
great and skillful politicians declare
that the preacher does not understand
the machinery of law and the enforce-

duties of the district attorney. He sup-
poses, in his blundering way, that the
district attorney is a detective. Where-
as his duty is very clearly defined along
another line. So die preacher is de-

WRECK AT DEAL BEACH.
What a magnificent illustration of this
truth we have in the stranded vessel
that is now being dashed to pieces by
the waves on Deal beach. A great steel
merchantman was this ship just from
her docks, feet long, feet wide,
with four masts. With all her sails set she
started her first journey; but over-
whelmed in March storms on
her first trip, she was dashed upon the
beach and wrecked. But now
in his shop, a workingman has invent-
ed a steam engine that drives the ship
through the waves. Now they launch
from her docks a great black monster in
sea, loaded to her water line with
bread for the starving. On through
tin very winds and storms, through
the bowling tempests of March, over
waves, through darkness
and rain end sun and the fury of the
tempest that magnificent ship plows
her way.
On, on; she does not pause. On swift
wings of mercy, with tireless lungs of
stool, plows across the storm swept
on her errand of mercy to a
nation. And now in a far away
foreign port the bread is unloaded and
carried to the starving, and the Greek
church of Russia sends down its priest-
hood and they bring this ship of mercy
into the port, and the priests take posses-
of her and hold a service of thanks-
giving aboard, and bless the great
messenger of mercy. And we hear
through all this the voice of the great

OF CITIZENSHIP.
The state is a function of-the church.
Constitutional government itself rests
upon the principle of love to man and
deference to the wish of others. Con-
government does not rest
upon the lire force of a majority. The
battle is i always to the strong, nor
race to the swift. Two men have
whipped three as often as three have
whipped two in the history of the world.
The count of noses is not the principle
on which modern constitutional govern-
rests. It rests the great
of love to one's fellow man.
Five Christians meet together. Three
agree upon one view, two another.
The two yield to the three and allow
them to rule, not because the three could
whip tho two, because of this
of love.
Patriotism is a religions sentiment.
We love our country, not against the
world, but because it is a part of the
world which God made. The nation's
hymn was sung by a sweet old Christian

man that fulfills his duties as a citizen
has fulfilled one of his deepest religious
duties. No man can be a consistent
Christian in America today and not
take active part in politics. The

of kingship. They cannot be
delegated to others. To fail to fulfill
them is to fail to fulfill a sacred and
divine trust

The dresses worn by Mrs. Russell B.
Harrison, tho daughter-in-law of the
president, have attracted much
in Washington this winter, and
some comment, from the fact that until
within two years or so her husband's in-
come would not have been sufficient to
provide for expenditures of such an
amount as her costumes must have cost.
It has been said that President Harrison
himself added to his son's income some-
thing every year for the purpose of
enabling the women of his family to
make a good showing in society. The
facts of the matter, however, are that
Mr. Harrison has never given Russell
an allowance for dressing his wife, but,
owing to fortunate investments of
young Harrison made through the ad-
vice of Secretary of War Elkins, he is
now practically in independent
stances.
It is said that Russell B. Harrison's
connection with certain New York illus-
papers was at first nominal, so
far as any expenditure of money upon
his part was concerned, and it is now
known that for at least a year after he
joined his interests with those of Mr.
his compensation from him was
only per month. Young Harrison
