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 Allen’s 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. We have been requestea by a tew ot our patrons to drop a certain advertise- ment from the columns of the Dispatch. It we were publishing a temperance or- gan or prohibition paper, the ad. would never have appeared init, but asa mat- te: of business our columns are open to 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 generally. and the ethics of the Dis- patch is not set above the avezage.

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 day’s 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 Surpr’se. 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 : “There 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 world’s 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.

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 isn’t 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: “J 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 That is what I said of As an exception I spoke ofthe class who I said there were his election. the Southern populists as a rule. 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 Gorman’s 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.

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 almost’ 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- der’? as a sailor’s 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,”’ 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, ‘“‘Lock my cabin door, and call me when he’s in his cage again.”’ 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.

Then, 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 entered the cabin, he was just in time to see the lastof his cherished weeds taken out of the box and thrown out of the port overboard.
