A neatly printed invitation has
come to our office from the com
mittee. The Georgia Farmers' Alli
ance met on April the 4th to
take action against the jute bag
ging trust. A resolution was
passsed that every bale of cot
ton made by Alliance men in
Georgia shall be covered with
cotton cloth instead of jute bag
ging. The laying of steel rails on
the Clinton branch was com
menced Tuesday evening at the
Warsaw end, and will probably
bH completed to Clin'on in a
week. We greatly appreciate
this impiovement, but would
still earnestly impress upon the
W. & W. authorities the neces
sity for a first class'coach.

Our thanks are due P. Heins
berer of Wilmington for a copy
of "The Conquered Banner,"
Father Ryan's famous and beau
tiful poem over our heroic dead,
which has has been set to rnus:c
by Rev. F. W. E. Peschau, pas
tor of the Lutheran Church of
Wimlngton. It . is printed in
sheet music form and is dedica
ted to Mrs. Gen. Stonwall Jack
son.
uur newspaper brethren m
Eastern Carolina do not seem to
v-v . . .
have grasped the idea and im
portance of the Truckers' move
ment at organization. The
trucklmg and fruit growing in
dustry, though comparatively
new as yet, will soon be the most
important feature in this part
of the State. The orgaization of
a State Truckers Association in
Clinton on Aoril 4th and 5th
was a biir step inthe right di
reciion a movement that will
make the business most profita
ble ard satisfactory to both pro
ducer an i buyer. But not a single
notice or comment, so far as we
have seen, has been given this
movement ty the State press.
Tha American Cultivator (N
Y.,) say? :
"Generally speaking, mt of the
bunch goods received from the South
do not find favor in this market
The produce Is invariably poorly
packed, and does not reach this city
in marketable ordei:."
A word to the wise is suffi
cient. ' We think our truckera
are learning their mistake in
careless packing. We were told
a few days since, by a man who
knows, that the New Jersey
liuckleberry, which cannot com
pare, neither in size nor flavor
to the Sampson Berry, often s ells
for more than, ours, because the
promiscuous and needless hand
ling and careless packing caus
ed our berry to reach the mark
et in bad condition.

Harrison Will Appoint no Demo

DEMOCRATS JUBILANT OVER THEIR
VICTORY IN MONTANA.
f Ikjf. Cor. Caucahiax.1
Washington. D. C, April 16th.
The published disagreement
between Mr. Harrison nd Mr.
Blaine does not exist as far as I
can ascertain, therefore the ru
mo cd retirement of Blaine
from the Cabinet is a little pre
mature. Doubtless the corres
pondent who sent the matter off,
like the most of other people
here, regards such a state of af
fairs as almost a certainty at
some time in the future, and
did not think he was taking
any great risk in sending the
ma tcr off as having already be
come a certainty.
Mr. Harrison's latest rap at
the democratic party was to in
form a democratic Senator, who
called on him in behalf of a
democrat that want to be a
member of the Ciil Service
Commission, that in appointing
those democrats, which by law
he is compelled to, he should
only recognize those who are-
protectionist. This seems to
be an injustice to t):o great ma
jority of the democratic party.
Representative Springer said
just before leaving for home, "I
feel much better than I have
for a long time. I have gained
fully ten pounds since the 4th
of March, due probably to the
fact that I have had nothing to
do with the great National stee
ple chase for office. My sup
perters are not entered fo.- that
court. A great many of their
were four years ago and then I
had a busy time all day and
when night came I could do
nothing but dream of the thou
sands of anxious facts that
haunt the White Ho se and the
Departments. I am good deal
more of a Civil Service reform
er than I ever supposed I could
be. Of course I understand
that when we have a perfect
Civil Service the millennium
will not be far away, but I
think it better to move toward
millennium th.iu towaid pan
demonium, which i& the result
of the spoiis system. There is
too much patronage in the
hands of the President andtbe
Departments, aR'c nc,T" "4fc
jjtifrjT "mtr " 'ii'x A snau, ncx .
niter, introduce ana advocate
a bill to relieve them of much
of the messure. 1 will try to
lift the Congressman's burden,
x- . .
too, by working for the election
of postmasters by lb, people;
that can be done without chan
ging the constitution, fo: tin
election wonld be simply a re
commendation. Democrats here are confident
ly expecting that Montana will
go democratic, thus adding two
Senators and one representative
to the party's vote in Congress.
S.
President Cleveland passed
through Goldsboro a few days
ago and when told by the peo
ple of that place that they wan
ted him to carry the Democrat
ic standard again in '92, he said,
in a short address to them:
"My public life is at an end. My
future lite will be devoted entirely
to the practice of law in New York.
I love the South and all her people,
yet I shall never accept the nom
ination."
Can't Do Without It.
(From a Sampsonian.)
Fish Dam, Durham Co., N. C,
April 5th, 1889
Mr. Editor: I am now proud of
The Caucasian, our most excel
lent county .pvper. The improve
ment is wonderful. I am always
glad to cet it, m fact it does net
seem to me that I could do without
it. I think every Sampsonian who
can read and has a particle of pride,
should hebi.you swell your subscrip
tion list to 3,000. The people ui
here try to tease me about the Samp
son Big Blues, but the way I answer
them is to take up The Caucasian
and lead to them about the progress
going on in our county about the
Carolina Wood Veneer Works, and
the canning and cotton factories
which our people are going to build
I am proud of my native county.
Very truly,
G. A. Clifton.
Deafness Gan't Be Cared
by local application, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to eure
Deafness, and that is by constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inflamed condition of the mucus
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tubo gets inflamed j-ou
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it isentirely clos
ed Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will bo destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is uothiug
but an inflamed condition of the mu
cus surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Deafness (caused
by Catarrh) that we can not cure by
taking Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send

BaITHE Caucasian was adopt
ed as the official organ of the Coun
ty Allian ces by the County Alliance,
January lQth.r
MAPLE GROVE, NO 356.
We have received very touch
ing and appropriate resolutions
from this Alliance regarding the
death of Bro. J. C. Hergrove,
and are sorry that we haven't
room to publish in full.
A Paper Read before Ulnff Alliance, No.
577, in Jannary last by W. J. C.
Alliance men must not allow
themselves duped into the be
lief that it is cheaper to buy
standard brands of guano than
it is to make their own fertili
zers; that the ware and tare of
teams, vehicles and farm imple
ments inako it too expensive to
form good compost heaps, and
that they had belter buy all
their fertilizers. This is a mis
taken idea for an Alliance man
to indulge even for a moment.
One of the main objects of AI
liaucefcm is to teach farmers
true economy, for of all waste
ful people the average farmer
takes the lead. Very many of
them work only half a yer. If
the merchant wo e to idle half
his time with ciosed doors he
ceuldu't live; I ho mechanic
wculd starve. If a man puts in
half his lime and barely make
a living be can certaiuly do
well if he works all his time.
If a day in May is worth 2.00,
a day in January can be made
as valuable. All that is needed
is the proper arrangements.
Who doubts that the winter
months spent in clear. n,s, ditch
ing, making coinpwst heaps,
breaking land, sheltering and
feeding stock and saving ma
nure, can be made as productive
as the- summer njent in cotton
raising ? Say what you will but
a bigger evil than all trusts,
fMwiqtoies and tariffs cAbdiiedl
is the aimont universal evil
among farmers of idling. away
half, their timo and buying
everything on time, which al
most in variably cost them from
50 to 200 per cei,t. A poor man
had beetter live prudeut and
economical than lo t j to make
a big appearance by buying all
he wants on time, probably more
thau he Cu.n ; ay for in two or
three years and have enough le: t
to feed his family. Thiswiy
of living well in summer and
dointr without m winter, is a
down hill business at a break
neck-speed .to ruin and starva
tion. Farmers oiiijht t regulate
their pride according to their
pocket-books, and study well the
lesson to live within their in
come, and uncomplainingly con
form to the condition of life in
which the Giver of all tood may
be pleased to place them in.
