The winter night was closing, <lb />

snow fell, while ceaselessly, <lb />
the fiery eye of the locomotive threw <lb />
a line of light through the darkness <lb />
for yards around. <lb />
Hugh was walking <lb />
slowly up and down the platform, <lb />
with his arms resting carelessly on <lb />
the shoulder of Alfred Neville, his <lb />
dearest friend. Both were wrapped <lb />
to the throat furs. <lb />

replied Hugh, somewhat soft- <lb />

There was a cordial grasp of two <lb />
earnest hands and then Alfred Nev- <lb />
stood alone on the platform, a <lb />
mist that was not the dew of melt- <lb />
before his eyes, and <lb />
the express train was speeding away <lb />
through the gloom and darkness of <lb />
the winter night. <lb />
this seat engaged, <lb />
Hugh answered in the <lb />
negative, almost petulantly, for the <lb />
conductor's voice roused him from a <lb />
deep reverie into which he had fallen. <lb />
The twilight of the <lb />
ed car, the heated atmosphere with- <lb />
in and the swift, tremulous motion <lb />
of the train were alike favorable to <lb />
dream fancies, and it was not par- <lb />
pleasant to be roused up to <lb />
make room for a lady and two little <lb />
children. <lb />

Hugh out of <lb />
the sheer spirit of contradiction or <lb />

the four-year-old upon his knee <lb />
while he assisted the lady to dispose <lb />
of her manifold traveling bags and <lb />
bundles. <lb />

The words were spoken so low that <lb />
scarcely caught their <lb />
sound, but the rosy little boy on his <lb />
knee quite made up for his mother's <lb />
taciturnity by clamorously demand- <lb />
to sec the stranger's watch and <lb />
rubbing his cheek delightedly against <lb />

an accent that thrilled him to the <lb />

leaned forward to get <lb />
a glimpse of the face that belonged <lb />
to the sweet low voice, but it was <lb />
useless; the car was too dark. <lb />

iron lungs breathing columns of <lb />
fiery smoke, its solitary eye of red <lb />
flame cleaving the darkness like a <lb />
spear. <lb />
Long ago the child on Hugh's <lb />
knee had fallen asleep, but neither <lb />
Hugh nor Edith evinced the least <lb />
tendency to drift off into dream- <lb />
land, for the pale and beautiful <lb />
young widow had told tho simple <lb />
story of her life to him who had once <lb />
confidently expected to share it. <lb />

your circle of <lb />

tell me of any situation in which I <lb />
could earn a livelihood, however <lb />
Hugh was silent an instant; he <lb />
could scarcely realize that this meek, <lb />
timid creature was the haughty, <lb />
high-spirited Edith Sayre of six <lb />
years since. At last he spoke rather <lb />

you will be unwilling to take my ad- <lb />

I thought you were en route for the <lb />

The boy was covered with mud <lb />

limp, wet and muddy chicken. It <lb />
was the cause of his trouble, for he <lb />
had thrown stones in tho yard that <lb />
afternoon and had accidentally <lb />
killed the chicken. Bis sister had <lb />
declared that she could not love such <lb />
a cruel boy. Then he had <lb />

When he saw his mother his feel- <lb />

the end that through a wise and <lb />
exercise of the legislative duty <lb />

the dangers threatening the future <lb />
may be averted. <lb />
financial plight <lb />

nor of conditions related to our <lb />
resources, nor is it traceable to <lb />
any of the which frequently <lb />
check natural growth and prosperity. <lb />
With plenteous crops, with <lb />
promise of remunerative production <lb />
and manufactures, with unusual <lb />

satisfactory assurance to business en- <lb />
Suddenly a financial distrust. <lb />
and fear have sprung upon side. <lb />
Numerous moneyed institutions have <lb />
suspended abundant assets <lb />
were not immediately available to <lb />
meet the demands of frightened de- <lb />
corporations and <lb />
individuals arc content to keep in hand <lb />
the money they arc usually anxious to <lb />
loan, and engaged in legitimate <lb />
business are surprised to find that the <lb />
securities they offer for loans, though <lb />
heretofore satisfactory, are no longer <lb />
accepted. Values supposed to be fixed <lb />
are fast becoming conjectural, and loss <lb />
and failure have invaded every branch <lb />
of business. I believe these things are <lb />
TO <lb />
touching the purchase and coinage of <lb />
silver by the general government. <lb />
This legislation is in a stat- <lb />
passed on the day of July. 1890, <lb />
which was the culmination of much <lb />
agitation on the subject involved, and <lb />
which may be considered a truce, after <lb />
a long struggle between the advocates <lb />
of free silver coinage and those intend- <lb />
to be more conservative. <lb />
Undoubtedly the monthly purchase <lb />
of the government of four million and <lb />
five hundred thousand ounces of silver, <lb />
enforced under that statute, were re- <lb />
by those interested in silver <lb />
production as a certain guarantee of <lb />
its increase in price. The result, how- <lb />
ever, has been entirely different, for <lb />
immediately following a spasmodic <lb />
and slight rise the price of silver <lb />
to fall after the passage of the act and <lb />
has since reached the lowest point ever <lb />
known. This disappointing result has <lb />
led to renewed and persistent effort in <lb />
the direction of free silver coinage. <lb />
Meanwhile, not only are the evil <lb />
of the present law constantly ac- <lb />
cumulating, but the result to which its <lb />
execution must inevitably lead is be- <lb />
coming palpable to all who give the <lb />
least heed to financial subjects. This <lb />
law provides that in payment tor the <lb />
ounces of silver bullion which <lb />
the secretary of treasury is command- <lb />
ed to purchase monthly, there shall be <lb />
issued treasury notes redeemable on <lb />
demand in gold or silver coin, at the <lb />
discretion of the of the treas- <lb />
that said notes may be <lb />
sued. It is. however, declared in the <lb />
act to be established policy of the <lb />
United States to maintain the two <lb />
metals on a parity with each other <lb />
the present legal ratio or such <lb />
ratio as may be provided by <lb />
This declaration so the ac- <lb />
of the secretary of the treasury as <lb />
to prevent his exercising the discretion <lb />
in him, if by <lb />
the parity between gold and <lb />
may be disturbed. Manifestly a <lb />
refusal by the secretary to pay these <lb />
treasury notes in gold, if demanded, <lb />
would necessarily result in their dis <lb />
and depreciation as obligations <lb />
payable only in silver, and would <lb />
troy the parity between the two met- <lb />
by establishing a discrimination in <lb />
favor of gold. Up to the 15th day of <lb />
July, 1893, these notes had been issued <lb />
in payment of silver bullion purchases <lb />
to the amount of more than one <lb />
and dollars. <lb />
While all but a very small quantity <lb />
of this bullion remains uncoined and <lb />
without usefulness in the treasury. <lb />
of the notes given in its purchase <lb />
have been paid in gold. This is illus- <lb />
by the statement that between <lb />
May 1st, 1892, and the 15th day of July. <lb />
the notes of this kind issued in <lb />
payment for silver bullion amounted <lb />
to a little more than fifty-four millions <lb />
of dollars, and that during the same <lb />
period about forty-nine millions of <lb />
were paid by the treasury in gold <lb />
for redemption of such notes. <lb />
The policy necessarily adopted of <lb />
these notes in gold has not <lb />
spared the gold reserve of one hundred <lb />
millions of dollars long ago set aside <lb />
by the government for the redemption <lb />
of other notes, has <lb />
subjected to the payment of new <lb />
obligations amounting to about one <lb />
hundred and fifty million dollars on <lb />
account of silver purchases, and has as <lb />
a consequence, for the time since <lb />
its creation, been encroached upon. <lb />
We have thus made <lb />
OF <lb />
and have tempted other and more <lb />
nations to add it to their <lb />
stock. That the opportunity we have <lb />
offered has not been neglected is shown <lb />
by the large amounts of gold which <lb />
have been recently drawn from our <lb />
treasury and exported to increase the <lb />
strength cf foreign nations. <lb />
The excess of exports of gold over its <lb />
imports for the year ending <lb />
MM. amounted to more than eighty- <lb />
seven and a half millions of dollars ; <lb />
between the first day of July, 1890, and <lb />
the 15th day of July, 1803, the gold coin <lb />
and bullion in treasury decreased <lb />
more than while during <lb />
Mn unwind coin <lb />
bullion in the treasury increased more <lb />
than 5147,000,000. <lb />
BONDS <lb />
are to be constantly issued and sold to <lb />
replenish our exhausted gold, only to <lb />
be again exhausted, it is apparent that <lb />
the operation of the silver purchase <lb />
law now in force, leads in the direction <lb />
of the entire substitution of silver for <lb />
the gold in the government treasury, <lb />
that this must followed by the <lb />
payment of all government obligations <lb />
in depreciated silver. At this stage <lb />
gold and silver t part company and <lb />
the government must fail in its <lb />
policy to maintain the two met- <lb />
on a parity with each other. <lb />
Given over to exclusive use of a cur- <lb />
greatly depreciated according to <lb />
the standard of the commercial world, <lb />
we could <lb />
SO CLAIM A PLACE AMONG NA- <lb />
of the first class, nor could our gov- <lb />
claim a performance of its <lb />
obligation so far as such an obligation <lb />
has imposed upon it. to provide <lb />
for the use of the people the lest and <lb />
safest money. If, as many of its <lb />
friends claim, silver ought to occupy a <lb />
larger place in our currency and <lb />
the currency of the world through <lb />
general international co-operation, <lb />
and agreement, it is obvious that the <lb />
United States will not lie in a position <lb />
to gain a hearing in favor of such an <lb />
arrangement so long as we arc willing <lb />
to continue our attempt to accomplish <lb />
the result single handed. The <lb />
edge in business circles among our own <lb />
people that our government cannot <lb />
make its fiat equivalent to intrinsic <lb />

Foreign nations, equally alert, not <lb />
only decline to purchase American <lb />

those which they already have. It <lb />
does not meet the situation to say that <lb />
apprehension in regard to the future <lb />
of our finances is groundless, that <lb />
there is no reason for lack of <lb />
in the purposes or power of the <lb />
government in the premises. The very <lb />
existence of this apprehension and the <lb />
lack of confidence, however caused, is <lb />
a menace which ought not for a mo- <lb />
to be disregarded, if <lb />
the undertaking we have in hand be <lb />
the maintenance of a specific known <lb />
quantity of silver a parity with <lb />
gold, our ability to do so might <lb />
be estimated and and perhaps <lb />
in view of our unparalleled growth <lb />
and resources, might lie favorably <lb />
passed upon. lint when our avowed <lb />
endeavor is to maintain such parity in <lb />

TO BOOn MONEY. <lb />
The people of the United States are <lb />
entitled to a sound and stable cur- <lb />
and to money recognized as such <lb />
on every exchange and in every market <lb />
of the world. Their government has <lb />
no right to injure them by financial <lb />
experiments opposed to the policy and <lb />
practice of other civilized states, nor <lb />
is it justified in permitting an <lb />
and unreasonable reliance on <lb />
our national strength ability to <lb />
jeopardize the soundness of the <lb />
money. matter above <lb />
the plane of party politics. <lb />
all <lb />
It vitally concerns every business <lb />
and calling and enters every household <lb />
in the land. There is one important <lb />
aspect of the subject which especially <lb />
should never be overlooked. At times, <lb />
like the present, when the evils of <lb />
sound finance threaten us, the <lb />
may anticipate a harvest gathered <lb />
from the misfortune of others. The <lb />
capitalist may protect himself by <lb />
hoarding or may even find profit in the <lb />
of but the wage- <lb />
first to be injured by a de- <lb />
currency and the la-st to re- <lb />
the benefit of its <lb />

He relics for work upon the <lb />
of confident and contented <lb />
This failing him. his condition <lb />
is without alleviation. for ho <lb />
can prey on the <lb />
tunes of others nor hoard his labor. <lb />
LABOR mU IT FIRST. <lb />
One of the greatest statesmen our <lb />
country has known, speaking more <lb />
than fifty years ago, when a derange- <lb />
of the currency had caused com- <lb />
very man of all <lb />
others who has the deepest interest in <lb />
a sound currency, and who suffers most <lb />
by legislation in money <lb />
matters, is the man who earns his daily <lb />
bread by his daily <lb />
These words are as pertinent now as <lb />
on the day they were uttered, and <lb />
ought to impressively remind us that <lb />
a failure in the discharge of our duty <lb />
at this time must especially injure <lb />
those of our countrymen who labor, <lb />
and who, because of their number and <lb />
condition, are entitled to the most <lb />
watchful care of their government It <lb />
It is of utmost importance that such <lb />
relief as congress can afford in the ex- <lb />
situation be afforded at once. <lb />
The maxim, twice who gives <lb />
is directly applicable. <lb />
It may be true that the embarrass- <lb />
from which the business of the <lb />
country is suffering, arise as much <lb />
from evils apprehended, as from those <lb />
actually existing. All may hope, too. <lb />
that calm counsels will prevail and <lb />
that neither the capitalists nor the <lb />
wage earners will give way to <lb />
panic and sacrifice their prop- <lb />
or their interests under the <lb />
of exaggerated fears. <lb />
DELAY IS <lb />
Nevertheless, every day's delay in re- <lb />
moving one of the plain and principal <lb />
causes of the present state of things <lb />
enlarges the mischief already done <lb />
and increases the of the <lb />
government for its existence. <lb />
Whatever else the people have a <lb />
right to expect from congress they <lb />
may certainly demand that legislation <lb />
condemned by the ordeal of three <lb />
disastrous experience shall be removed <lb />
from the statute soon as their <lb />
can legitimately deal <lb />
with it <lb />
TARIFF SEPTEMBER. <lb />
It to summon con- <lb />
in special session early in the <lb />
coming September, that we might en- <lb />
promptly upon the work of tariff <lb />
reform which the true interests of the <lb />
country clearly demand, which so large <lb />
a majority of the people, as shown by <lb />
their suffrages, desire and expect, and <lb />
to the accomplishment of which every <lb />
effort of the present administration it <lb />
pledged. But while tariff reform has <lb />
lost nothing of its immediate and per- <lb />
importance and must in the <lb />
near future engage the attention of <lb />
congress, it has seemed to me that the <lb />
financial condition of the country <lb />
should at once and before all other <lb />
subjects be considered by your honor- <lb />
able body. <lb />
HE URGES REPEAL OF THE <lb />
LAW. <lb />
I earnestly recommend the prompt <lb />

purchase of silver bullion, and that <lb />
other legislative action may put, be- <lb />
all doubt, or mistake the <lb />

who first told of the looting of the cold- <lb />

According to Mr Duggan. there <lb />
were men concerned in the con- <lb />

given the names to the grand jury. <lb />
He said that, from the opening of the <lb />
exposition up to the time of the fire. <lb />

from the cold-storage warehouse by <lb />
the wagon load. The wagons used <lb />

A New Steam Digger. <lb />
An improved steam digger was <lb />
undergoing practical tests in every- <lb />
day work in England the past <lb />
spring, and the testimony of <lb />
agriculturists mechanical <lb />
experts is that it is a notable <lb />
That digging is a mere <lb />
and more generally <lb />
method of treatment for the <lb />
soil than plowing is an opinion <lb />
neither new nor uncommon, but <lb />
there has never yet been found a <lb />
satisfactory way of making the <lb />
principle amenable to steam power, <lb />
so that it could compete with the <lb />
plow. The machine, tho Darby <lb />
steam digger, is driven by a portable <lb />
engine of eight horse power, and of <lb />
about the sumo general pattern as <lb />
those used for steam plowing. The <lb />
digging apparatus, at the back end <lb />
of the engine, consists of four sets <lb />
of steel digging tines, six tines in <lb />
the set, driven from a four-throw <lb />
crank shaft, so that but one set of <lb />
tines enters the ground at one time. <lb />
A bar thirteen fixed <lb />
tines is carried in front of tho <lb />
able tines, and as the digging tines <lb />
throw up the earth the clods are <lb />
projected against the fixed tines and <lb />
broken up. The space dug over is <lb />
fourteen feet wide. Tho diggers <lb />
are driven at an average speed of <lb />
one hundred and thirty-four strokes <lb />
a minute, with a working steam <lb />
pressure of one hundred and twenty <lb />
pounds to the square inch. The <lb />
depth of cut is easily adjustable. <lb />
Two or three of these latest type <lb />
machines have been at work in <lb />
parts of England and with <lb />
great practical success. The ma- <lb />
chine is operated by two men, and <lb />

and a half in height above the <lb />

is painted in wood greens and browns <lb />
that harmonize pleasantly with the <lb />

To-day we print President <lb />
Cleveland's message to Congress. <lb />
No message was ever so <lb />
looked for as this. eyes of a <lb />
nation were on President Cleve- <lb />
land. <lb />
The message was a disappoint- <lb />
here in the South, both to <lb />
his friends and his enemies. He <lb />
disappoints his friends in what <lb />
he did not say, and on the other <lb />
hand he sorely perplexes his <lb />
mies by not saying what they <lb />
him to utter. His party <lb />
expected that he would not only <lb />
recommend the repeal of the <lb />
Sherman law but that he would <lb />
suggest a substitute. This latter <lb />
he did not do. His enemies <lb />
wanted him to advise that gold <lb />
only should be used. This he did <lb />
not do. consequence he dis- <lb />
appoints both friend and enemy <lb />
by what he did not say and not <lb />
by what he did recommend. As <lb />
far as the message goes it is good <lb />
but most of us would <lb />
have been better pleased had he <lb />
gone farther and his views <lb />

There was almost a panic down <lb />
in Fla., last week, over <lb />
a yellow f eyer scare- Two deaths <lb />
occurred in the city which the <lb />
physicians said they thought to <lb />
been caused by this dread <lb />
fever, and the announcement was <lb />
followed by wild excitement and <lb />
the immediate fleeing from the <lb />
city of all who could get away <lb />
Those towns and cities in most <lb />
danger should disease get a <lb />
foot-hold in at once es- <lb />
a quarantine against <lb />
that city and would allow none of <lb />
its to stop there. New <lb />
Orleans, Birmingham, Augusta <lb />
and Savannah all closed doors <lb />
against them, but Atlanta received <lb />
them, the latter city expressing <lb />
doubts as to whether the reports <lb />
were true that the deaths were <lb />
caused by yellow fever, and <lb />
no fear of the spread of the <lb />
fever even should it be carried <lb />
to Atlanta. The excitement did <lb />
not continue long at <lb />
confidence was soon restored. <lb />
It is stud that frauds have <lb />
been perpetrated in this State just as <lb />
they were in the Norfolk section. Of <lb />
course these will have investigation. <lb />

have no doubt that the same <lb />
thing prevails around a number <lb />
of towns in the State, and if the <lb />
investigation takes on anything <lb />
of a general nature there will be <lb />
any amount of quaking and <lb />

after the election that <lb />

Several counties in the State <lb />
have adopted the plan of working <lb />
the convicts of the county upon <lb />
the public roads. Wherever <lb />
have seen reports from the <lb />
the best of results have <lb />
followed and improvements have <lb />
been made that possibly would <lb />
not have been obtained in any <lb />
other way. The has <lb />
been anxious to see the <lb />
of Pitt county adopt this <lb />
plan and improve roads of this <lb />
county by working the convicts <lb />
upon them- Taking the evidence <lb />
from other counties they could <lb />
take no better step for road <lb />
A recent issue of the <lb />
Salisbury Herald <lb />
Yesterday rounded up the first year <lb />
of the road law in Rowan county. <lb />
During that time there has h -en paid to <lb />
the a total of 82,713.8 i for <lb />
special road tax. and the mads hive <lb />
cost 82,710.15, leaving a balance in the <lb />
treasury of So money that the <lb />
comity has ever expended has <lb />
used for a better purpose than that <lb />
on the public roads. <lb />
As a how this same <lb />
plan works in other States, the <lb />
New York Sun says <lb />
The experiment of employing the <lb />
convicts of this State on the public <lb />
rout n proved to be a success, and <lb />
the result will he great improvement in <lb />
the county roads at little cost to the <lb />
State. It is said the expense of guard- <lb />
them not as great as was expected, <lb />
the work they do is well done. <lb />

WASHINGTON LETTER. <lb />
our Regular <lb />
Washington D. C., Aug. <lb />
President Cleveland's message <lb />
to Congress has been as closely <lb />
studied as any similar document <lb />
ever was by members of Congress <lb />
and it evident that it is going <lb />
to be a powerful factor in the <lb />
legislation of tho session. <lb />
It apparently opposes the ideas <lb />
of many Democrats in both House <lb />
and Senate, just as his celebrated <lb />
tariff message of 1887 did, but <lb />
honest and conscientious belief is <lb />
conspicuous in every sentence of <lb />
it. And the opposition to what <lb />
are known as silver Democrats is <lb />
more apparent than real, for they <lb />
all agree with the President's re- <lb />
commendations for the repeal of <lb />
the silver purchasing clause of <lb />
the Sherman law, only differing <lb />
as to what, shall be substituted. <lb />
The message recommends the re- <lb />
peal and leaves the question of a <lb />
substitute to the wisdom of Con- <lb />
and nine-tenths of the Dem- <lb />
are certain that the <lb />
as to repeal will be <lb />
followed, and that other financial <lb />
legislation, which will be equally <lb />
satisfactory to the silver Demo- <lb />
and to President Cleveland, <lb />
will be agreed upon by the Dem- <lb />
in both House and Senate <lb />
and that the persistent efforts of <lb />
the Republicans to split the Dem- <lb />
party on the silver <lb />
will fail- <lb />
Acting on the maxim quoted in <lb />
the President's <lb />
gives twice who gives <lb />
the Democrats in the Hon e, both <lb />
silver and anti-silver men, are try- <lb />
to reach an <lb />
up and decide the silver question <lb />
without waiting for the appoint- <lb />
of committees and the <lb />
of rules. It will be easy to <lb />
take the matter up without <lb />
agreement, only a majority vote <lb />
being required, but if an agree- <lb />
can be reached just <lb />
what is to be voted upon r. id how <lb />
much time is to be given dis- <lb />
much time will be saved <lb />
that would necessarily be wasted <lb />
if no agreement is made, to say <lb />
nothing of the possibility of end- <lb />
less <lb />
The silver men have in caucus <lb />
decided to vote for the repeal of <lb />
the purchasing clause of the Sher- <lb />
man law, if the bill for its repeal <lb />
provides for the free coinage of <lb />
silver on such a ratio as will pro <lb />
and maintain the parity be- <lb />
tween gold and silver. The fact <lb />
that no particular ratio is men- <lb />
is significant. It means <lb />
that the caucus of silver Demo- <lb />
did not believe it possible to <lb />
succeed in maintaining the pres- <lb />
ratio of to and that they <lb />
are willing to increase the ratio. <lb />
It is now claimed that a careful <lb />
poll of the House, made this week <lb />
shows a majority of in favor of <lb />
the repeal of the purchasing <lb />
clause of the Sherman law. The <lb />
Senate is more doubtful, and it is <lb />
much more difficult to <lb />
how Senators whose positions are <lb />
not clearly defined will vote, but <lb />
strong efforts are now being made <lb />
to bring the Democratic Senators <lb />
together, and the indications <lb />
point to success. A caucus of Dem- <lb />
Senators this week <lb />
pointed a committee of <lb />
man, Ransom, Gray, and <lb />
consider and re- <lb />
port a plan with that end in view- <lb />
The Republicans, unintentionally, <lb />
of course, added largely to the <lb />
probability of united Democratic <lb />
action in the Senate by their at- <lb />
tempts to make political capital, <lb />
which were promptly and prop- <lb />
rebuked by Senator Gorman, <lb />
out of the present financial <lb />
The Senate committee on <lb />
of which Senator <lb />
is chairman, held its first meeting <lb />
yesterday. The did <lb />
not lack for business, either, as <lb />
more than a score of financial <lb />
bills which have been introduced <lb />
in the Senate have been referred <lb />
to that committee. A majority of <lb />
this committee are <lb />
but some of the most prominent <lb />
of them, including the chairman, <lb />
have declared their belief in the <lb />
viciousness of tho Sherman law <lb />
and their willingness to vote for <lb />
its repeal- The Sen- <lb />
ate is naturally deliberate in all <lb />
its actions, so it will not be <lb />
prising if the House takes up the <lb />
silver question before this com- <lb />
reports a bill to the Sen- <lb />
ate. The resolution of Senator <lb />
Lodge, of Force bill fame, direct <lb />
the committee to report a bill <lb />
for the repeal of the Sherman law <lb />
and providing that a vote should <lb />
be taken thereupon on the 22nd <lb />
of this month was only a bit of <lb />
Republican and the <lb />
adoption of the resolution would <lb />
have surprised no one more than <lb />
its author- <lb />
The bitterest pill in the <lb />
dent's message, for the <lb />
cans to swallow, was the plain <lb />
statement that he expected Con- <lb />
to obey the will of the <lb />
and proceed to reform the in- <lb />
tariff as soon as the <lb />
have been looked after. Be- <lb />
cause the troubles brought upon <lb />
the country by Republican <lb />
legislation have so con- <lb />
forced themselves up- <lb />
on public attention of late, Re- <lb />
publicans have allowed them- <lb />
selves to believe that the <lb />
law was to be undisturbed by <lb />
this Congress. They know better <lb />
now, and the knowledge doesn't <lb />
please them. <lb />
COMMENTS ON MESSAGE, <lb />
This, we believe, represents the <lb />
dominant sentiment of the <lb />
Times. <lb />
President Cleveland's plan for <lb />
the repeal of the Sherman act is <lb />
virtually <lb />
financial News. <lb />
Nobody can gainsay the array <lb />
of facts or answer the argument <lb />
of this Watter- <lb />
son in Louisville Courier <lb />
Journal. <lb />
The distress is national there- <lb />
fore should be broad <lb />
and not confined to party lines <lb />
Cincinnati Commercial Ga- <lb />
The President's message goes <lb />
straight to the root of the dis <lb />
quiet and stagnation existing in <lb />
Daily <lb />
Telegraph. <lb />
It is certain that his <lb />
will have the cordial sup- <lb />
port of the great body of <lb />
can Representatives <lb />
Sentinel. <lb />
His message should have been <lb />
affirmative from beginning to end, <lb />
and it should have attempted to <lb />
show the way out of the woods. <lb />
Memphis <lb />
The moral, although we do not. <lb />
expect to agree with <lb />
us, is that it is infinitely safer and <lb />
wiser to let the metals find their <lb />
own <lb />
Standard. <lb />
We congratulate the <lb />
racy on the fact that the <lb />
dent recognizes squarely and <lb />
honorably the validity of the <lb />
pledge ultimate reform of the <lb />
tariff as well as of financial <lb />
York Sun. <lb />
There is no questioning the <lb />
honesty and sincerity of the <lb />
in the position he takes, for <lb />
it is consistent with his record, <lb />
and neither is there any question <lb />
of the honesty and sincerity of <lb />
the great majority of those who <lb />
take the opposite view on the <lb />
coinage question- It is too much to <lb />
expect that the end will be reach- <lb />
ed without a hard struggle which <lb />
will in all probability result in a <lb />
compromise after all, in which <lb />
nearly all the legislation on this <lb />
subject has heretofore ended- <lb />
Wilmington Star. <lb />
The urges Congress <lb />
to take prompt action- He would <lb />
have the law repealed <lb />
forthwith- He loses sight no- <lb />
where of the object which he had <lb />
in view when he convened Com- <lb />
in extra His <lb />
sage is admirable document, <lb />
and if it fails to accomplish the <lb />
purpose for which it was intended <lb />
no one can deny that he did his <lb />
part of the work well. But in es- <lb />
the of the <lb />
a fact must be taken into <lb />
consideration which we have not <lb />
seen that a <lb />
President serving his second term <lb />
has not the influence over con- <lb />
which is possessed by a <lb />
President serving his first term. <lb />
If is a keen sense of <lb />
favors to the President of <lb />
1893 cannot be expected to have <lb />
the influence of the President of <lb />
1885- <lb />
We are glad that the President <lb />
says that there is nothing of <lb />
party politics in this currency <lb />
Dispatch. <lb />
It is not to be supposed for a <lb />
moment that the President would <lb />
repeal the Sherman act and stop. <lb />
To do that would to put the <lb />
country on a gold basis at once. <lb />
As we see it, it would reduce the <lb />
silver dollar from its face to its <lb />
bullion value and cause a <lb />
of the silver certificates <lb />
outstanding to the bullion value <lb />
of the coin behind them. This <lb />
sudden depreciation and <lb />
if it should occur, would <lb />
mean universal bankruptcy. It <lb />
is not to be doubted that the <lb />
President would follow the repeal <lb />
measure, which he so earnestly <lb />
insists upon, with some other pro- <lb />
vision of legislative <lb />
would a <lb />
place for silver in the currency of <lb />
the country, and it is to re- <lb />
that he did not in his mes- <lb />
sage outline his plan. Few think- <lb />
men will be found to deny <lb />
that as far as he goes he is alto- <lb />
right, and the only reason <lb />
able fault to be found with the <lb />
message is that beyond a certain <lb />
point it is indefinite. The <lb />
peal for honest money is praise- <lb />
worthy and ought to find a cordial <lb />
response in the heart and con- <lb />
science of every honest man. We <lb />
think it has been demonstrated <lb />
that we cannot have honest money <lb />
under a system or upon any ratio <lb />
of free silver coinage conducted <lb />
upon the present ratio near it, <lb />
nor yet under the provisions of <lb />
any such law as that the repeal <lb />
of which the President so <lb />
earnestly asks for; but there is <lb />
a basis upon which we can have a <lb />
bimetallic coinage and every <lb />
of both gold and silver be <lb />
sound and honest, and it was the <lb />
reasonable expectation of many <lb />
people that Mr. Cleveland would <lb />
in this message indicate it Char- <lb />

The N. C. Teachers. <lb />
The World's Fair party of N. C. <lb />
teachers returned to Raleigh from Chi- <lb />
last Saturday, and report it a most <lb />
charming and delightful trip in every <lb />
particular. Col. E. G. Harrell is the <lb />
greatest success at getting up and con- <lb />
ducting large excursions that have <lb />
yet heard of, and the teachers are more <lb />
indebted to him than to man in the. <lb />
State. His next venture is a tour to <lb />
California and Yellowstone Park, which <lb />
is being planned for the summer of <lb />
Notes Among <lb />
The Scotland Neck Democrat came <lb />
out last week entire new dress of <lb />
type, giving the paper a neat and hand- <lb />
some appearance. Notwithstanding the <lb />
dull times and the financial panic the <lb />
paper finds itself able to make this <lb />
right here the dullest time <lb />
of the summer, upon which, together <lb />
with the excellence of his paper, the <lb />
Reflector takes occasion to <lb />
late Bro. Hilliard most heartily. <lb />
The Durham Sun has also been re- <lb />
making decide I improvements, <lb />
having purchased a nice power press <lb />
and is now doing its own printing from <lb />
new type. The Sun is a good daily and <lb />
fie people of Durham do right in re- <lb />
this and giving it a good pat- <lb />
Mr. II. A. Latham, editor of the Wash- <lb />
Gazette, has applied for the <lb />
as postmaster of his town. <lb />
If merit., f party service ca- <lb />
are worth anything Latham <lb />
should receive the appointment. He is <lb />
thoroughly competent in every respect <lb />
to perform the duties of the office, and <lb />
beside our belief is those who do <lb />
the work should receive the reward <lb />
when there are. rewards to be disposed of. <lb />
Things That Cut the Newspaper. <lb />
Hero is one reason why the news- <lb />
papers have a hard time keeping their <lb />
names on the credit side or the record- <lb />
angel's ledger They puff and <lb />
blow about their town and tear their <lb />
shirts over every little for the <lb />
advancement of the community ; they <lb />
will devote columns of space to <lb />
that their town is the <lb />
best place earth for factories, <lb />
laborers, religion, science, art <lb />
and education; and when there is a <lb />
little two-bit job of printing to be done, <lb />
the newspaper men must cut <lb />
order to get Sun. <lb />
There is another thing that gets close <lb />
to die newspaper man, too, as it <lb />
how much appreciation some people <lb />
have for the work he does for their <lb />
It is for business men to get his prices <lb />
an job p, just to compare with j <lb />
prices from an <lb />
concern, and if latter <lb />
p-us to be a little cheaper sends the; <lb />
work not once considering that the J <lb />
out of-town never gives him <lb />
penny's worth of patronage, never ; <lb />
draws him any and never prints <lb />
anything that will help to build up Ma I <lb />
the newspapers instead <lb />
fl working for the and ad- I <lb />
vising people to trade with <lb />
chants, should tell them they might i <lb />
gave a cents by s aiding off for <lb />
float they wanted; what would <lb />
of business of the town an I who <lb />
be kicking mast about it Of; <lb />
course no newspaper would ever think <lb />
of doing such a as this, but just <lb />
compare this idea with the way some <lb />
few of the business men do and judge <lb />
if newspaper is always treated <lb />
fairly.<lb />

at no other city in the New World is <lb />
so much of interest to be seen. <lb />

Some time ago, the Cadets of Davis <lb />
Military School attended the great <lb />
State Exposition at Richmond, Virginia. <lb />
Among the pleasant events of the visit <lb />
was the Review of the Cadet Battalion <lb />
by Gen. Lee, Governor of <lb />
The Review took place on the <lb />
famous grounds surrounding the <lb />
Capitol of the Old Dominion. The <lb />
visit was full of enjoyment for <lb />
tie- soldier boys. During the coming <lb />
session of the Davis Military l the <lb />
cadets will visit Washington City, <lb />
where they will spend a few days. <lb />
Congress will be in session at the time <lb />
of the visit. This will be not only an <lb />
occasion of great enjoyment for the ca- <lb />
but one of great profit. The <lb />
cadets will go on a special train from <lb />
Winston to Washington City. The <lb />
entire expenses will be paid by the <lb />
Davis Military The cadets will <lb />
be at no expense whatever. The next <lb />

TOBACCO DEPARTMENT <lb />
O. X. Tobacco <lb />
LOCAL NOTES AND <lb />
JOTTINGS. <lb />
The new prize houses will be <lb />
completed ample time for the <lb />
the new crop. <lb />
Mr. Frank Allen tells us that <lb />
he took a load of primings to <lb />
son few ago, and never in <lb />
his life has he seen tobacco so <lb />
low as it now is. <lb />
Mr. John Jenkins with Mr. H. <lb />
P. Keel, says he has the best <lb />
of tobacco he has ever grown in <lb />
Pitt and that the part of <lb />
his crop is the Eastern Pride. Mr. <lb />
Jenkins he never intends <lb />
planting any other kind in <lb />
tern Carolina because it is a to- <lb />
peculiarly adapted to our <lb />
soil. <lb />
Judging from what primings <lb />
that have been offered on the <lb />
market here, the crop behind is a <lb />
bright one and what farmers need <lb />
to do to get good prices for their <lb />
tobacco is to hold it until money <lb />
matters get easier. Don't pay any <lb />
attention to tho hurried words of <lb />
flattering who in- <lb />
on your selling now. <lb />
Several of our neighboring mar- <lb />
have been magnanimous <lb />
enough to grant tho Greenville <lb />
market two million pounds the <lb />
coming year. One year ago we <lb />
were talking with a tobacco ware- <lb />
housemen on another market and <lb />
asked him what he thought of <lb />
future as a tobacco <lb />
market. He said of course that <lb />
Greenville could never become a <lb />
market because there was not <lb />
enough enterprise among the <lb />
business men here. The business <lb />
men hero have not placed the to- <lb />
market on a spasmodic <lb />
boom, but enough has been done <lb />
to this warehouseman to <lb />
cry out the Greenville market <lb />
hurting me. <lb />

or nothing about tobacco, or the <lb />
way to show it off to tho best ad- <lb />
vantage- <lb />
That tobacco formed the main <lb />
feature of the entire State exhibit <lb />
was to be expected, and so <lb />
far as arranged proved to be so, <lb />
some of Elliot's samples, all <lb />
on the lower row were shown to <lb />
good advantage, while above <lb />
were otherwise. <lb />

TOBACCO AT WORLD'S <lb />
All exhibitions of leaf tobacco <lb />

prove more or less unsatisfactory I exhibitors on them, <lb />
in results to tobacco men, and the is able only <lb />
exhibit at tho World's Fair at <lb />
Chicago prove; do n. In <lb />
fact the exhibits as a whole <lb />
by the State of Kentucky. <lb />
as well as by the United States <lb />
Government, will prove to the to- <lb />
trade at large more than <lb />
usually unsatisfactory. <lb />
From the nature of the article <lb />
exhibited, it is not to be expected <lb />
that it can retain much of its <lb />
tine character, excellence, or <lb />
beauty, after being exposed to <lb />
view for some time, as all tobacco <lb />
men know, but at the same time <lb />
the main causes for complaint <lb />
about the exhibit at Chicago lays <lb />
at the doors of those whose duty <lb />
it was to see that the results would <lb />
be different. <lb />
The exhibit from such a great <lb />
tobacco State as Kentucky is pal- <lb />
try, and on the whole badly <lb />
ranged, nor can this be charged <lb />
altogether to the Leaf Tobacco <lb />
Exchange of Louisville did <lb />
nearly all the work getting the <lb />
samples to but almost en- <lb />
to the Commissioners, <lb />
who took the matter into their <lb />
own hands, and carried it out in <lb />
a manner reflecting very little <lb />
credit on them. <lb />
The old saying of wise <lb />
and pound was clearly <lb />
in of the most <lb />
features of the exhibit, <lb />
namely as regards the cases in <lb />
which the samples are shown. <lb />
a great deal of time and <lb />
the Leaf Tobacco Exchange <lb />
had drawings of the cases made <lb />
and estimates of cost obtained, <lb />
betides making suggestions as to <lb />
the best way of exposing the <lb />
to view, all of which were <lb />
entirely ignored by the <lb />
who, in their spirit of par <lb />
simony and meanness, undertook <lb />
to get the oases made in Chicago, <lb />
at a great deal less money than <lb />
could be done in Louisville, <lb />
whereas the proved their <lb />
cost in Chicago became immense- <lb />
mere and inferior in quality <lb />
and workmanship, while the an- <lb />
at which the tobacco was to <lb />
be displayed so as to be seen best <lb />
were altered greatly for the worse <lb />
rendering it impossible for <lb />
tors the aid of step lad- <lb />
which were not furnished by <lb />
the liberal minded Commission- <lb />
to inspect intelligently one- <lb />
half of the samples got together <lb />
at so much trouble, and furnish- <lb />
ed free of cost to the Commission- <lb />
who cannot claim that their <lb />
appropriation by the State was <lb />
exhausted, as it is understood <lb />
that a large amount of money is <lb />
still unexpended. <lb />
It is a disagreeable duty to be <lb />
obliged to make such comments, <lb />
but in justice to the Leaf <lb />
co Exchange of Louisville it is <lb />
only right that it should not be <lb />
blamed in the matter. <lb />
From the list published in con- <lb />

FINANCIAL HORIZON <lb />
BRIGHTENING. <lb />
There is a manifest indication <lb />
of returning confidence in <lb />
and business circles through <lb />
out the country, and weak-kneed <lb />
capitalists are beginning to look <lb />
around and wonder why they <lb />
were so frightened, and the mer- <lb />
chant and manufacturer <lb />
easier as the pressure begins to <lb />
lighten. <lb />
While this improved state of <lb />
is due partially to the <lb />
that Congress will repeal <lb />
the purchasing clause of the Sher- <lb />
man act, yet there ate other <lb />
factors at work bringing <lb />
about this much desired improve- <lb />
in financial matters more <lb />
rapidly than anticipated <lb />
The heavy export of cereals <lb />
has caused tho flow of gold from <lb />
Europe and almost every specie <lb />
bearing steamer brings the yellow <lb />
metal to our shores, until now for <lb />
the first time in many months the <lb />
8100,000,000 gold reserve has <lb />
been restored, and a surplus be- <lb />
sides. Tho decline in government <lb />
bonds has induced the national <lb />
banks to increase their issues of <lb />
notes, and during July was <lb />
an increase of in the <lb />
circulation of national bank notes <lb />
and Comptroller judging <lb />
from the calls in the last few days <lb />
thinks the increase during Au- <lb />
gust will be over <lb />
The small number of failures <lb />
during tho past few months, as <lb />
compared with the severe <lb />
distress is truly remarkable <lb />
and evidences tho stability of our <lb />
legitimate business institutions <lb />
and an absence of rottenness wit <lb />
in previous panics, and <lb />
there is no question that from now <lb />
on there will be a steady revival <lb />
in trade until we shall have for- <lb />

person, so far as they can be seen <lb />
every one can judge for himself <lb />
as to the merits of each <lb />

however, no finer show of Burl <lb />
leaf tobacco was ever seen, in all <lb />
grades, of all shades of color, and <lb />
for the variety of uses this most <lb />
popular variety of tobacco is put. <lb />
Although had more attention been <lb />
given some of the samples to <lb />

INTRINSIC <lb />
who construe the <lb />
plank of the Democratic plat- <lb />
form to contain a declaration in <lb />
favor of the free coinage of silver <lb />
appear to overlook the pledge to <lb />
the parity the <lb />
two metals and tho pledge to <lb />
maintain a gold dollar and a silver <lb />
dollar of equal intrinsic value. <lb />
This promise is certainly to be <lb />
taken connection with the other <lb />
promise to coin gold and silver <lb />
without discrimination against <lb />
either. What is <lb />
It is tho value that is inherent, <lb />
genuine, persistent. What <lb />
is the intrinsic of the silver <lb />
dollar That depends upon the <lb />
standard of measurement. If the <lb />
market price of the commodity <lb />
that enters into it is the test then <lb />
it is now cents. What is the <lb />
intrinsic value of the gold dollar <lb />
The material that makes it up is <lb />
worth cents in the markets of <lb />
the world. Thus, to make these <lb />
two several dollars of equal <lb />
sic value now, we must put <lb />
cents more of silver in the silver <lb />
dollar. This charges the ratio <lb />
from to to about to and <lb />
this is what Congressman Liv- <lb />
of Georgia, proposes, and <lb />
then free coinage. The <lb />
silver men say that intrinsic value <lb />
has nothing to do with <lb />
the stamp of the government on <lb />
the dollar is good for the differ- <lb />
between and cents <lb />
for any other difference that may <lb />
If that is true this govern- <lb />
is very foolish to. buy so ex- <lb />
pensive a metal as silver for use <lb />
as a circulating medium. Why <lb />
not call nickels dollars and save <lb />
the cost of the raw silver <lb />
In all this discussion the prime <lb />
duty of Congress to furnish the <lb />
people a sound currency should <lb />
never be lost sight of. If the ex- <lb />
of the past year has <lb />
taught us anything, it should <lb />
have taught us, it seems, that we <lb />
are dangerously near the point <lb />
where a part of our currency will <lb />
part company with the other part. <lb />
Let us continue to have bimetallic <lb />
coinage, as we have promised tho <lb />
people; let us also have that leg- <lb />
which will insure the con- <lb />
parity of gold and silver <lb />
and paper currency, for this we <lb />
have also promised the people <lb />

arrived at tho shrines of the <lb />
deity presiding over agriculture, <lb />
and his majesty stopped to offer up <lb />
his thanksgiving and sacrifices. <lb />
After changing his dress, the morn- <lb />
repast was served, at tho end of <lb />
which the emperor proceeded to the <lb />
field, at the four corners of which <lb />
wore erected four pavilions where <lb />
the seeds of wheat and other cereals <lb />
placed. In the center were <lb />
numbers of magnificently attired <lb />
courtiers, each holding aloft a many- <lb />
colored flag, while on tho side of the <lb />
scores of aged and <lb />
white-haired farmers, each having <lb />
In his hand some agricultural <lb />
Placing his left hand on tho <lb />
plow and holding the whip in his <lb />

of the occasion. By <lb />
arrangement tho officers did their <lb />

agricultural implements, while <lb />
others scattered seeds out of tho <lb />
baskets as if sowing, while the em- <lb />
was busied with the plow, <lb />
which was hitched to a <lb />
bullock, draped in yellow and <lb />
led by two of emperor's body- <lb />
guards. On tho emperor finishing <lb />
his round at the plow the three <lb />
princes were ordered to go through <lb />
