WASHINGTON LETTER. our Regular Washington, D. C-, Sept., Senator of West chairman of the Democrat- Congressional campaign com- who is almost constantly at the committee headquarters, smiles significantly every time his attention is called to a new version of the dissension which the Republican newspaper respondents profess to have dis- covered in the committee- He says that those for whose benefit the committee exists have the best of reasons for knowing that there is no dissension, and that it will be beneficial rather than otherwise to the Democratic party if e correspondents can con- the Republican managers that the committee is not in a condition to render effective vice to the Democratic candidates. As a matter of fact, all of these dissension fairy tales are based upon a misapprehension of the duties of the committee- With the exception of the campaign Text Book, which is prepared by the committee, and which is not for general distribution but for speakers editors, the com does not decide what sort of documents are to be sent into a Congressional district- It mere- sends what is asked for by the candidate or those authorized to speak for him- So it is simply impossible that members of the committee should dispute over what documents shall be sent The committee is filling all the orders sent to it, and will continue to do so. Senator says the information he is receiving from all over the country is daily adding to his confidence that the Democrats will retain control of the House, and he thinks that the greater the improvement in now becoming apparent in all sections, the larger the Demo- majority will be, as the only thing that ever made the issue doubtful was the business n and the disposition of many voters to hold the party in power responsible for the bard times. Representative John T- Dunn, of New Jersey, has some very strong ideas on political economy, and they are thoroughly cal, as is the man. Speaking of effect of the Republican pol- icy upon farmers, he said there is any class of people the sun who ought to vote the Democratic ticket it is the farm- Since farm values have decreased fully per cent, in the United States, as shown by the census There isn't a country in New Jersey to- day that is worth over per acre farming purposes.

One of the easiest ways to make people go abroad to trade is to neglect advertising at home Mer- chants who don t believe that advertising pays, should be the last to complain if the people attracted by liberal advertise- of merchants in other cities go abroad to do their As a general thing most of the people who send abroad for goods do so because of the bar- fains offered in the city papers or they see things that they, the local mer- chants, do not keep. If the local merchants would make a business of thoroughly advertising the goods they handle and their of this i be kept at home. Th- merchant who keeps them informed that he keeps what they want and that he will sell it reasonable prices has no cause to complain of his sending to for their goods. Sam Mr. J. H. Mills,, of township, told us Thursday that be and his brother, Mr. Calvin Mills, recently killed bear over in the edge of Beaufort county- It weighed pounds They are champion bear Mr. J. C.

Hickey, of Danville, Va., spout a portion of last week on our market. More damaged tobacco Mas sold last week in all year before. Reports from nearly all markets show a decline in prices principally on account of damp weather and damaged condition of the tobacco. That Greenville is all around best tobacco market in the eastern part of State farmers who last week tried son and Mount will attest. We have heard numbers of them say that they never expected to haul co that far from a good home market again. Mr. P. H Gorman has recently had some valuable improvements added to his leaf factory here- The ground floor he has had pared and a double floor laid all over which almost makes the air tight. One room has been cut off in the lower floor and apparatus placed in it for re-drying tobacco. Mr- man is now prepared to re-handle tobacco on short time and his factory is one of the largest and most convenient in the State. Mr. Blount, of Washing- ton, Co., had shipped to Eastern Warehouse last week two crates of tobacco. We open- ed the tobacco and bad it put on the floor and it was adjudged by nearly all buyers to be very good, oily and soft textured to- but the curing was exceed- bad. Judging from the anyone who is a judge of weed would say that it grew on good tobacco land but the hum Dug that did the curing and grading showed the work of an inexperienced band. This is Mr. first year in the of tobacco and it is a sad fact that he was so unfortunate as to get a man who knows ally nothing about the manage- of a tobacco crop and as Mr. Blount of course knew nothing about tobacco was forced to act upon the judgment of colored whose ignorance of what be pretended to know has certainly cost Mr- Blount a nice little sum. Just at this particular time there is very much complaint among the farmers from nil over the country on account of the low prices of tobacco. Nearly every in fact everyone since we have been in the tobacco at just about this time there comes a warm, damp spell of weather which causes tobacco to get very high in order and run red. A great many times if the tobacco is not given the very closest attention it becomes dam- aged and of course sells at low prices. This is the of the past low prices and farmers may rest assured that if they cannot keep it from damaging at home when they rush it on the market buyers cannot handle it to their advantage.

He has set his heart upon that lion. He wants the place , wants it bad. It is his study by day and his dream by night- Foolish ideas have crept into his head. Visions of splendor float before his eyes. Ambition, the sin by which the our first parents fell, possess his soul. So it be set down absolutely as a fact that the key to the Pop- movement in this State is ambition to go to the Senate. Eliminate that the concern would collapse. Now, what are the conditions that But- has to deal with His arm is not long enough to roach the coveted prize. His party polled only about votes this State in 1892. What is to be done Why fusion with the Republicans is bis idea. He has been figuring to the effect that the combined vote of the lists and Republicans is greater than th it of Democrats. Yes that is the way it was two years, ago, but will it be so this year Butler thinks it will. Let it be understood once for all that North Carolina cannot be used for But- very ignoble purpose. Our people have too much Stale pride, too much self respect and common sense to open the door to the evil that dragged down a neighboring State a few years Weekly To the above we add a para- graph from the reply of Mr. J. D. to a Tennessee populist want to inform my neighbor that, by the grate of God, no Ben Tillman or Waite shall ever disgrace the chair of North Carolina.
