The Charge Not True,
The tollowing is taken from a re.
port of WatsonTs speech at Wentworth,
in WebsterTs Weekly :
It has been charged that he was in-|;
strumental in securing the repeal of the
Alliance Charter.
but was started by some ill-disposed
It was not true,
persons to injure him with the farmers.
The facts were that he was asked one
day by Judge Allen, chairman of the
Judiciary Commtttee of the House, to
meet with that committee to consider a
quseiion that was then of vital interest
to Alliance members of the Leyisla-
ture. One of the Superior Court
Judges in au Eastern county of the
State had held that the Sub-Alliance
was responsible for the debts of the AL.
liance stores. By request he , attended
and for the fist time in his life he heard
the Alliance Charter read. In com-
mon with the Committee he was driven
to the conclasion that the opinion of the
Judge who had passed upon the case
was right A new charter was pro
pesed as the way out of it. He took
the position that an amendment to the
charter was all that was necessary.
He left at once and went to his work
and heard nothing further until one
morning two bills were introduced in
the House. neither of which he had ever
seen or heard of. One was to repeal
the charter and the other to recharter
tie Alliance. The two bills passed the
House without a roll call, he voted
azainst both. Bills wens to the Sen-
ate where the one to repeal the charter
wis tabled, and che amendment, he
had suggested in conference with Judge
AllenTs committee was engrafted on the
bill. In that shape it passed the Sen"
ate, came back to the house and was
concurred in. That was the whole of
the matter and for verification he re-
ferred to Judge Allen of Goldsboro.
Aavertising Saloons.

ment from the columns of the Dispatch.
It we were publishing a temperance or-

the public for the advertisement of any
legitimate business, and we hope that
more good than harm may come to all
p uties concerned by this course. At
the same time we are sorry if it offends
any of our patrons. A newspaper docs
not necessarily endorse the business of
evary advertiser in its columns. We
do nothing more than the secular press

The First Weex.
One week of the new season of the
Greenville tobacco market has gone by,
There was nothing spasmodic about
he opening, all the warehouses advis-
ing farmers to hold their tobacco tor
cooler weather and better prices, still
the business started of in a way that
indicates a large and prosperous sea-
son. The first dayTs break was only
avout 40,000 pounds and it held up
about the same all through the week,
there being not less than 30,000 pounds
on any day. Prices were much lower
than the opening a year ago but are as
guvod as could bx had anywhere.
A SurprTse.
English newspapers have been very
severe in their denunciations of the
Democratic declaration in favor of the
{ree and unlimited coinage ot silver, re-
gardless of the actioa of any other na-
tion. It was hardly to be expected
that these papers woull do otherwise
since the tact is apparent tuat English
wealth has grown fatter and more
erful {through the present single gold
standard policy of the United States.
pow-
But here comes tne London Finan.
cial News, which is considered an au
thority in matters of finance, with the
following surprising statement with ret-
erence to the silver movement in this
country :
oThere is a plain moral in the re-
mark that if the United States would
venture to cut herself adrift from Eu-
rope and take outright to ~silver slie
would have all America and Asia at
her back w.d the command of the mar-
kets of both counties. The barrier of
gold would be more fatal than any bar-
rier of a custom house. The bond of
silver would be stronger than any bond
of free trade. There can be no doubt
about it that if the United S:ates were
to adopt a silver basis tomorrow Brit
ish trade would be ruined before the
year was out. Every American would
be protected, not only at home, but in
every other market. Of course the
United States would suffer to a certa'n
extent through having to pay her obli-
gations abroad in gold, but the loss of
exchange under this head would be a
mere drap in the bucket as compared
to the profit to be reaped from
tie markets of South America and
Asia, to say nothing of Kurope. The
marvel is that the Unitad States have
not long ago seize] th: opportunity.
It has been a piece of luck that it has
never occurred to the Americans to
scoop us out of the worldTs markets by
guing on asilver basis, and it might
serve us right if, irritated by the con-
temptible apathy of our government
toward the silver problem, the Ameri-
cans retaliated by freezing out gold. It
could be easily done.�
This is a stcaw showing that the
quickest un. shortest cut to internation-
al bimetallism, which even the Repup-
lican party piofesses to favor, 1s by the
adoption and execution of tree. cuinage
of both silver and gold by the United
States.

Wasutvarox, Ave 7th, 1896.
Senavor Jones; Chairman _ of . the
-| Democratic National Committee, found
himself called upon very earlv in the
game to pay the penalty of prominence
in a National campaign. In addltion
| to having been maliciously lied about
and misquoted he has been directly
attacked and ~charged with ~mismanag-
ing the campaign. It isnTt Senator
Jones that these people are injuring,
but Bryan and Sewall, whose prospects
are looking entirely too bright to please
their enemies. As to the misquotation
of Lis interview concerning the South-
ern populists, Senator Jones said be-
fore going to New York, where he will
probably remain nntil after the Nation-
al Committee meeting and the big
| Bryan and Sewall notification meeting,
next week: oJ did not say that Mr.
Bryan wound not accept the populist
nomination, for I have no authority to
say that. I did not say that as a gen-
eral rule the southern pupulists wee
not a creditable class. On the con-
trary, I said that most of them were
patriotic men who were working for a
cause ; that they were populists because
they had believed they could promote
their cause best thiough a new party
and that now they would support Bryan
because it was showu that their patrioii¢
objects could be attained only through

were not creditable.
some who were populists merely for
their personal advaneement ; some who
had become populists through selfish, |. 7
and not patriotic motives. 1 spoke of
these as the exceptional class who
would not support Bryan. 1 said that
asa rule the populists in the South
course and
support Bryan, that there were some
who, tor selfish motives, would not do
so, but would prefer to have McKinley
elected.�
The
against Senator Jones falls of its own
charge of mismanagement
weight, for the very good reason that
there has been practically nothing to
manage and will not be until the meet-
ing of the National Committee in New
York City ou the 11th inst. when the
membership of the exgcutive committee
will be announced and the general plan
of the campaign mapped out and adopt-
ed. This charge was accompanied by
a demand that Senator GormanTs ser-
vices be requisitioned. That
explains one of the main objects of these
who made the charge"to upset the
extremely cordial relations existing be-
tween Scnator Jones and Gorman, thus
depriving the Natienal Committee of
the advise which Mr. Gorman
promised to give during the campaign
in lieu of accepting the chairmanship of
the executive «mmittee which
offered him.
~Lhe gold Democrats of New York
may be quite the» atriots they claim to
be, but since it became known in
Washington that they tred ty make a
deal with Mark Hanna to cast their
votes tor the McKinley electoral -ticket
in exchange for Republican votes in
the New York legislature for one of
their number as Senator to suceced
David B. Hill, they are classed as
plain, everyday disgruntled politicians.
more bent upon getting offive than mr
defending principles. _
Unless all the reports from West
Virginia are wrong, which is not at all
likely, that j state will certainly give
Bryan ~and Sewall a large majority.

- §stence For Jack Tar. :
Three things, writes a naval con-
tributor, there are which do. more
than anything else to lighten the
burden of existence such as it is
borne by Jack Tar, says the West-
minster Gazette. These three are
grog, the hornpipe and a pet animal,
and the pet animal is the greatest
solace of the three. There is scarce.
ly a vessel afloat, from one of our
line of battleships down to a canal-
boat, that has not a two or four foot-
ed pet on board. Sailors proverbially
make pets of almostT any animal
they are shipmates with"elephants,
bears, sheep, goats, monkeys, ga-
zelles and raccoons among the mam-
malia, bantam cocks, parrots, cock-
atoos, magpies and sea gulls among
bipeds, and even inhabitants of the
ocean, such as seals and turtle, have
been laid under contribution to pro-
vide amusement for our bluejackets!
An elephant seems ~~a large or-
derT? as a sailorTs pet aboard ship,
but who of tho senior naval officers
does not remember the vessel called
by the nickname of H. M.S. Mie.
nagerie, and the elephant on bozr.
they were on tbe Indian station.
The elephant was regularly stationed
and harnessed to the jib halyards,
and when tho order was given to
~~Make all plain sail,�T he made a tri.
umphant bellow and ran alony the
waist until the pipe was sounded to
to the delenda est Car-
thago of any toes that got into his
way!
Admiral Sir G. W"" told me
that when he commanded an Indian
troopshipa full grown tiger was em-
barked for passage to England asa
present from some Indian prince tc
the queen. It was a magnificent
animal, and fer many years after-
ward was exhibited at the zoological
gardens. One morning, about 5:30,
the captain was awakened by a mes-
senger, who said, ~~Please sir, the
tiger has broken loose!�� His reply |
was, ~o~Lock my cabin door, and call
me when heTs in his cage again.�T It
appears that in cleaning the cage,
the men being thes washing decks,
the door of the cage had been wn.
fastened and the beast had escaped,
causing a regular stampede, the
bluejackcts forward running up the
rigging and the soldiers taking to
the hammock nettings and the hurri-
cane deck. The tiger ran aft; the
the tiger. Atany rate,an old quarter-
taking bis lantern flashed it full in
cho face of the tiger. He then took
she animal by the scruff of the neck,
tan it forward to its cage and slam.
med and fastened the door ina jiffy.
Here is another anccdote of a rea!
pet, this time in the same ship.
Thero are several officers now alive
who can vouch for the truth of this
story.
very jolly little monkey, quite &
general favorite. One evening, just
before dinner, on a guest night, the
ship being in harbor, the first lieu-
tenant went into his cabin with the
monkey, and, opening a box of very

already on the table, he left the box
on the table and burried to mess.
It bad been the custom for bis
the table for a morsel of food now
little timo had elapsed, and the
monkey did not appear, his owner,
excusing himself for a minute, ran
back to his cabin to see what his pet
was doing, knowing besides, having
a strong imitative trait of character,
it was generally up tosome mischief
or other, Alas, he was too late}: The
monkey bad only too well imitated

time to see the lastof his cherished
weeds taken out of the box and
thrown out of the port overboard.
