Reed is not disposed to regard the pop-

ulists presented a petition to Speaker

Reed, reciting the tact that at the last

election they had cast about 2,000,000

votes, elected governors in five states,

elected twenty-sev:n members of the

present house, and requesting therefore,

that they have a representation on the

committees on ways and means, judic"

elections and others. Mr. Reed has
just replied that he preferred to recog"

will stand for this congress at least.

HARRY SKINNERTS SCHEME,

Special to Charlotte Observer.

Wasnineton, March 22."Rep-
resentative Harry Skinner, the
Populist leader from North Caro-
lina, has concocted a bil!, and
presented it to Covgress, which
he claims will solve the financial
problem and bring about practical
bimetalism. His bill provides for
the issuance of bimetallic certifi
cates of yarious denominations,
which shall have a positive value
0; 100 cents on thedollar. These
certificates are to be issued to any
person who may deposit 11 6-10
grains of gold and 185 6-25 grains
of silver (ata ratio of 16 to 1.)
These certificates, according to
their face value, are made receiv~
able for public and privete debts,
and when received for public tax�
es shall be reissued and on its
face guarantee the bearer shall
within twelve months, at any
United States depository, receive
50 cents worth ofT gol d 50
cents worth of silver, according to
the market yalue of the bullion,
as declared by the Secratary of
the Treasury:

The bill further provides that
the Secretary of vhe Treasury
miy issue said certificates in the
same proportion ayainst any gold

equal proportion, the present out:
standing gold and silyer certifi-
cates. It is also provided that

ciates the gold will surely appre-
ciate and thus the combined yal-
ue of the two metals equalizes the
face yalue of the bi-metallic cer-
tificates, and keeps its face value
at 100 cents. Under any circum-
stances the holders of the cer-
tificates can demand of the gov-
ernment 50 cents in gold and 50
cents in silver. ;

When the question comes up
for consideration, Mr. Skinner
says it will be difficult for the

Senator Chandler and other Re-
publicans who are interested in
carrying out the Republican
promises in bebalf of bi-metalism,
have examined the bill and they
declare that it will challenge the
thoughtful consideration of every
one who honestly believes in &

When there is i¢ thing to prevent
their coming 10 a land like North
Carolina it is strange that people will
live in the bleak and inhospitable north
and the blizzard-stricken west. The
(only explanation there can be is that
the people in other portions of th®
country are not posted on what this
State has to offer to industrious home
seekers. Such people will fiad hospitable
neighbors, sunshiny hea.thful
breezes and the certainty of making
muney easier and under more pleasant
almost any other

and

surroundings than
part of the world. Energy and industry
will surely bring a competence in this
highly fayored land._-Rocky Mount
