A aad PEOPLE LOVE TO BE SWINDLED. named We sce aa item in the Charlotte Ob- gerver that in Davidson county men are selling « clothes lines for $1 that can be bought af any hardware store for 8 Seents. Iv‘ astonishing how people appar- ently! love to be swindled. Notwith- standing the newspapers give warning alter weraiog in just such matters as this, people go right on alloving them- selves to be taken in by every stranger that comes along with something to offer. The above is but one among hundreds, yea thousands, of like inci- dents that occur all over the country. Right here in Pitt county we have known of people g giving peddlers $39 tor a clock when one just as good could be purchased. for one-fourth the money. We have known them to give $60 for a range when any stove dealer in Green— ville could sell them one just as good or half the money. We have known them to pay fabulous prices f r sewing machines when the home dealers could supply them just as well at a saving of from 50 to 100 per cent. We have known them to buy fruit trees and pay trom two to ten times as much for them as the very same could be bought : at trom the home nurseries; in fact have themselves, * * oe fruit tree agents bought trees from the nursery here and : turned right around and sold them at 300 per cent. profit. We have known housekeepers in Greenville to pay a peddler $1 cr more for a piece of tin, ware when any tinner in town could muke an article just as good for 20 cents. Other instances could be given, but these are enough to illustrate the point. Why people wiil continue to pursue such a course and allow themselves to be swindied so often, is more than the Rerrecron can unierstand. But it seems that any oily tongued fellow can go through the towa. and country and find plenty of people on whom he can palm off his wares at a big price. There are plenty of home merchants and dealers,. good, honest men, who can supply you with all that is needed in the house or about the tarm, and it is wisdom to trade with them instead ot being taken in by every peddler that goes your way. You will save money by letting tie peddlers entirely alune. teteeemeanemenidiameienmetatall WASHINGTON LETTER. mania (From Our Regular Correspondent.) WasHineron, April 30, 1897. »ooThe democratic members of the Senate Finance Committee very prop- érly declined to agree to the proposition to allow the amended tariff bill to be reported to the Senate as soon as the republicans have finished work upon it, which they say will be the first of next week. The democratic members of the committee do not expect to be able to get the bill changed in committee, nor dot they desire to unnecessarily delay ither its report to theSenate or its reach- ne . ingafinalvote,but they insist upon taking time enough to go over the bill, which s bas been so extensively changed that tice y. &n2w one, in order to rm their colleagues in the Senate, gandhi why sf oppose it |prevalent among democrats in Congress ‘he was out of office before, a plan of jem crats of sha | committee | ldyeed two. ‘outside tariff ex~ perts “@ ‘assist them in going over the ils a The belief that Cleveland wants to la the democratic candidate in 1900 is and that his New York speech was his first move in that direction. Speaking on the subject Representative Richard- sot, of Tenneseee, said: “As soon as campaign was organized in his behalf. Although his nomination seemed to be the result of a popular wave in his tavor the fact is that a sentiment for him was adroitly stimulated by articles in the country press and by literavure sent out by mail, both emanating from a headquarters in New York. His friends had plenty of mcney and the same organization is at nis disposal today.” Representative Bland, ot Missouri, said: “Yes, Cisveland hopes to be nominated, and he will be, but not by the demo- cratic parsy, which will remain true to the principles declared at Chicago last year. He will be the candidate of the handfull of people at the Reform Club dinner. I shall be very glad to see the issue directly made, for I do not believe Cleveland will find a corporal’s guard io tollow him. There is one good thing about the dinner. It shows that there is to be no concession and no compromise, and‘ that the Cleveland party will not coalesce with the 6,500,~ 09) who followed the regular standard bearer.” Representative Stallings, of Alabama, said: “I should not wonder if Cleveland hopes to gather to himself the republicans, especially in the West, who are not tavorable to a high tariff. He will get support trom wherever he ean and from whatever party that is willing to help him in his ambitions. The democracy, however, will go ahead aod make its fight without him.” Rep- resentative Carmack, of ‘lennessee, said: “{ have heard the gentlemen who participated in the Reform Club dinner called the Waldorf democracy, | Meodlinty.: Wondedfel medical disconery of the age | gently and positively on kidneys, liver nd bowels, cleansing the entire sys tem dispel colds, cure headache, tever, ba— bitual constipation and __biliousness- Please buy and try a box of C.

All of us growl more or lees about having to pay taxes, and not infrequent- ly the growling is unnecessary and un— warranted by the facts. The Greens~ boro Record tells of an effective rebuke delivered by an old gentleman toa young man who was raising a rumpus about his taxes being so high. After listening to his tirade the old man said: “Young man, let me tell you how you can keep from paying any tax, and at the same time you will be fulfilling a Bible injunction.” _ “All right,” said the fellow, “go ahead with it.” “Sell what you have and give it to the poor and then you won’t have any- thing to pay tax on except your fool head, and that is not worth it. Jam thankful I have something to pay tax on myself.” Since that time that young man has paid his taxes without grumbling,though it has some times been hard work for him to raise the money. The rebuke was a just one. There are burdensome taxes and unnecessary taxes, but most of us ought to be thankful that ,we have something to pay taxes on.—Statesville Landmark Sepene amc SE UST UE BAERS FRETS Just try a 1Uc. box ot cascarets, the finest liver and bowel 1eguator ever made.

Thurston, who was early in the Cleveland administration given a hint by the late Secretary Gresham that his resignation as Hawaiian minis- ter to the United Siates would be agreeable and who was wise enough to accept tae hint and go home, has been in Washington for several weeks. He is now a special annexation Commissioner of the Hawaiian government. He thought the annexation business was all fixec, but the fight that is being made to have a clause inserted iu the new tariff bill abrogating the treaty with Hawaii, under which sugar comes into the United States free of duty, has frightened him. Next to annexation his government values tha, treaty, which practically amounts to commercial anpdexation. ‘Thurston has filed a long argument against abrogation of the treaty with the Senate Committee on suggestion name, but 1 call them the walled—off are suecess(ul if they hope to have him at but about the unly indication the public Acting AN EXCURSION — Train will leave— ae the morning of— Wednesday, May 19th, For NORFOLK, Va. connecting at Farmele with train from Greenville.
