touching the purchase and coinage of
silver by the general government.
This legislation is in a stat-
passed on the day of July. 1890,
which was the culmination of much
agitation on the subject involved, and
which may be considered a truce, after
a long struggle between the advocates
of free silver coinage and those intend-
to be more conservative.
Undoubtedly the monthly purchase
of the government of four million and
five hundred thousand ounces of silver,
enforced under that statute, were re-
by those interested in silver
production as a certain guarantee of
its increase in price. The result, how-
ever, has been entirely different, for
immediately following a spasmodic
and slight rise the price of silver
to fall after the passage of the act and
has since reached the lowest point ever
known. This disappointing result has
led to renewed and persistent effort in
the direction of free silver coinage.
Meanwhile, not only are the evil
of the present law constantly ac-
cumulating, but the result to which its
execution must inevitably lead is be-
coming palpable to all who give the
least heed to financial subjects. This
law provides that in payment tor the
ounces of silver bullion which
the secretary of treasury is command-
ed to purchase monthly, there shall be
issued treasury notes redeemable on
demand in gold or silver coin, at the
discretion of the of the treas-
that said notes may be
sued. It is. however, declared in the
act to be established policy of the
United States to maintain the two

This declaration so the ac-
of the secretary of the treasury as

may be disturbed. Manifestly a
refusal by the secretary to pay these
treasury notes in gold, if demanded,
would necessarily result in their dis
and depreciation as obligations
payable only in silver, and would
troy the parity between the two met-
by establishing a discrimination in
favor of gold. Up to the 15th day of
July, 1893, these notes had been issued
in payment of silver bullion purchases
to the amount of more than one
and dollars.
While all but a very small quantity
of this bullion remains uncoined and
without usefulness in the treasury.
of the notes given in its purchase
have been paid in gold. This is illus-
by the statement that between
May 1st, 1892, and the 15th day of July.
the notes of this kind issued in
payment for silver bullion amounted
to a little more than fifty-four millions
of dollars, and that during the same
period about forty-nine millions of
were paid by the treasury in gold
for redemption of such notes.
The policy necessarily adopted of
these notes in gold has not
spared the gold reserve of one hundred
millions of dollars long ago set aside
by the government for the redemption
of other notes, has
subjected to the payment of new
obligations amounting to about one
hundred and fifty million dollars on
account of silver purchases, and has as
a consequence, for the time since
its creation, been encroached upon.

nations to add it to their

by the large amounts of gold which
have been recently drawn from our

The excess of exports of gold over its
imports for the year ending

replenish our exhausted gold, only to
be again exhausted, it is apparent that
the operation of the silver purchase
law now in force, leads in the direction
of the entire substitution of silver for
the gold in the government treasury,
that this must followed by the
payment of all government obligations
in depreciated silver. At this stage
gold and silver t part company and
the government must fail in its
policy to maintain the two met-
on a parity with each other.

of the first class, nor could our gov-
claim a performance of its
obligation so far as such an obligation
has imposed upon it. to provide
for the use of the people the lest and
safest money. If, as many of its
friends claim, silver ought to occupy a
larger place in our currency and
the currency of the world through
general international co-operation,
and agreement, it is obvious that the
United States will not lie in a position
to gain a hearing in favor of such an
arrangement so long as we arc willing
to continue our attempt to accomplish
the result single handed. The
edge in business circles among our own
people that our government cannot
make its fiat equivalent to intrinsic
value, nor keep inferior money on a
parity with superior money, by its in-
dependent efforts, has resulted in such
a lack of confidence at home, in the
stabilities of currency values, that
capital refuses its to new enter-
prises while millions are actually with-
drawn from the channels of trade and
commerce to idle and

NATIONS WILL NOT
Foreign nations, equally alert, not
only decline to purchase American
but make haste to sacrifice
those which they already have. It
does not meet the situation to say that
apprehension in regard to the future
of our finances is groundless, that
there is no reason for lack of
in the purposes or power of the
government in the premises. The very
existence of this apprehension and the
lack of confidence, however caused, is
a menace which ought not for a mo-
to be disregarded, if
the undertaking we have in hand be
the maintenance of a specific known
quantity of silver a parity with
gold, our ability to do so might
be estimated and and perhaps
in view of our unparalleled growth
and resources, might lie favorably
passed upon. lint when our avowed
endeavor is to maintain such parity in
regard to an amount of silver
at the rate of fifty millions of

to such increase, it can hardly be said
that a problem is presented whose so-

neither new nor uncommon, but
there has never yet been found a
satisfactory way of making the
principle amenable to steam power,
so that it could compete with the
plow. The machine, tho Darby
steam digger, is driven by a portable
engine of eight horse power, and of
about the sumo general pattern as
those used for steam plowing. The
digging apparatus, at the back end
of the engine, consists of four sets
of steel digging tines, six tines in
the set, driven from a four-throw
crank shaft, so that but one set of
tines enters the ground at one time.
A bar thirteen fixed
tines is carried in front of tho
able tines, and as the digging tines
throw up the earth the clods are
projected against the fixed tines and
broken up. The space dug over is
fourteen feet wide. Tho diggers
are driven at an average speed of
one hundred and thirty-four strokes

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

WASHINGTON LETTER.
our Regular
Washington D. C., Aug.
President Cleveland's message
to Congress has been as closely
studied as any similar document
ever was by members of Congress
and it evident that it is going
to be a powerful factor in the
legislation of tho session.
It apparently opposes the ideas
of many Democrats in both House
and Senate, just as his celebrated
tariff message of 1887 did, but
honest and conscientious belief is
conspicuous in every sentence of
it. And the opposition to what
are known as silver Democrats is
more apparent than real, for they
all agree with the President's re-
commendations for the repeal of
the silver purchasing clause of
the Sherman law, only differing
as to what, shall be substituted.
The message recommends the re-
peal and leaves the question of a
substitute to the wisdom of Con-
and nine-tenths of the Dem-
are certain that the
as to repeal will be
followed, and that other financial
legislation, which will be equally
satisfactory to the silver Demo-
and to President Cleveland,
will be agreed upon by the Dem-
in both House and Senate
and that the persistent efforts of
the Republicans to split the Dem-
party on the silver
will fail-
Acting on the maxim quoted in
the President's
gives twice who gives
the Democrats in the Hon e, both
silver and anti-silver men, are try-
to reach an
up and decide the silver question
without waiting for the appoint-
of committees and the
of rules. It will be easy to
take the matter up without
agreement, only a majority vote
being required, but if an agree-
can be reached just
what is to be voted upon r. id how
much time is to be given dis-
much time will be saved
that would necessarily be wasted
if no agreement is made, to say
nothing of the possibility of end-
less
The silver men have in caucus
decided to vote for the repeal of
the purchasing clause of the Sher-
man law, if the bill for its repeal
provides for the free coinage of
silver on such a ratio as will pro
and maintain the parity be-
tween gold and silver. The fact
that no particular ratio is men-
is significant. It means
that the caucus of silver Demo-
did not believe it possible to
succeed in maintaining the pres-
ratio of to and that they
are willing to increase the ratio.
It is now claimed that a careful
poll of the House, made this week
shows a majority of in favor of
the repeal of the purchasing
clause of the Sherman law. The
Senate is more doubtful, and it is
much more difficult to
how Senators whose positions are
not clearly defined will vote, but
strong efforts are now being made
to bring the Democratic Senators
together, and the indications
point to success. A caucus of Dem-
Senators this week
pointed a committee of
man, Ransom, Gray, and
consider and re-
port a plan with that end in view-
The Republicans, unintentionally,
of course, added largely to the
probability of united Democratic
action in the Senate by their at-
tempts to make political capital,
which were promptly and prop-
rebuked by Senator Gorman,
out of the present financial
The Senate committee on
of which Senator
is chairman, held its first meeting
yesterday. The did
not lack for business, either, as
more than a score of financial
bills which have been introduced
in the Senate have been referred
to that committee. A majority of
this committee are
but some of the most prominent
of them, including the chairman,
have declared their belief in the
viciousness of tho Sherman law
and their willingness to vote for
its repeal- The Sen-
ate is naturally deliberate in all
its actions, so it will not be
prising if the House takes up the
silver question before this com-
reports a bill to the Sen-
ate. The resolution of Senator
Lodge, of Force bill fame, direct
the committee to report a bill
for the repeal of the Sherman law
and providing that a vote should
be taken thereupon on the 22nd
of this month was only a bit of
Republican and the
adoption of the resolution would
have surprised no one more than
its author-
The bitterest pill in the
dent's message, for the
cans to swallow, was the plain
statement that he expected Con-
to obey the will of the
and proceed to reform the in-
tariff as soon as the
have been looked after. Be-
cause the troubles brought upon
the country by Republican
legislation have so con-
forced themselves up-
on public attention of late, Re-
publicans have allowed them-
selves to believe that the
law was to be undisturbed by
this Congress. They know better
now, and the knowledge doesn't
please them.

We are glad that the President
says that there is nothing of

Dispatch.
It is not to be supposed for a
moment that the President would
repeal the Sherman act and stop.
To do that would to put the
country on a gold basis at once.
As we see it, it would reduce the
silver dollar from its face to its
bullion value and cause a
of the silver certificates
outstanding to the bullion value
of the coin behind them. This
sudden depreciation and
if it should occur, would
mean universal bankruptcy. It
is not to be doubted that the
President would follow the repeal
measure, which he so earnestly
insists upon, with some other pro-
vision of legislative

able fault to be found with the

point it is indefinite. The

worthy and ought to find a cordial
response in the heart and con-

think it has been demonstrated
that we cannot have honest money

of free silver coinage conducted
upon the present ratio near it,
nor yet under the provisions of
any such law as that the repeal

earnestly asks for; but there is
a basis upon which we can have a

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

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