We understand that the ma

of the towns in the State, have
followed the disgraceful ex-
ample of Wilmington in 60
ing through the ceremony of
brlrying Marion Butler. We
have just seen that in Augusta,
Ga, the machine Democrats
put Tom Watson's coffin in
a torch-light procession; that
two men sat on the coffin drink
ing whiskey and playing cards
as the procession passed down
the street. Those who take
part in encouraging such low,

good lawful legal tender money.
Under this State bank system
would there be no national
money? Yes, but the favored
few must have that while the
people must take something
that the government would not
recognize as money. something
that you can't pay your taxes
to the government with. The
plain people are entitled to
as good money as anybody else
and they will have it yet. Let
everybody start a State bank OF,
issue, who can, but the people
will never stop the fight for fl
nancial reform till the whole
monetary system is changed so
as to give the people a national
currency, safe, sound and fexi-
BILE, issued direct to the people
at a low rate of interest.

What is Democracy Now ?

We have believed for some
time that the money power OF
this country was gradually
des erting the Republican
party. Not because the Re-
publican party was not willing
to serve the money Devil, but
it had gotten unpopular with
the masses. The money power
must do its work through a
party that can throw enough
taffy to the 1aboring people and
the farmers to catch their votes.
In short, the money Devil hav-
ing used the Republican party
as long as it could, has now
taken charge of the Democratic

necessaries Of life. Many things
on the free lists should be trans
ferred 10 the duuable list. 4
glance AT the free list will show
any one several hundred articles
upon which there is no sort OF
reason why duties should no, be
levied, and compensation made
by a reduction on articles of
most common use.
The only remarkable thing
about the interview is what the
Senator did NOT say. Not a
word about that awful Republi-
can financial system-not a
word about increasing the value
OF money, yet two years ago
senator ance was pledged by
the Legislature of North Caro-
lima to the Ocala platform, with
special emphasis put upon the
increase of the currency and
changing the financial system
after the sub-treasury plan.
That was considered Of the most
Importance by the people who
elected Senator Vance, yet he
now considers it of so little i'm
portance that he does not even
refer to it. Is public office a
public trust +?

coinage of silver F? No, if there
is a single delegate who is in fa-
vor of it he has not yet dared to
open his mouth. All during the
campaign when the Democrats
and Republicans were pressed
fore the people about free silver,
they would dodge by saying that
they expected that monetary con-
ference to agree on something
that would be satisfactory and
would benefit the people. Now
what are they doing ? The con-

party, 10 make Il tool of il.
We see new evidences of this
every day. Only last Satur-
day, the day after Jay Gould's
death, the New York Tribune
says:
''It is the impression that
Mr.. Gould's political sympa-
thies during the recent presi-
Dental campaign were. largely
with the Democrats. While he
is said to have sent a small
campaign contribution to the
Republican fund, the Demo
Gratis were the recipients Of a
vastly greater sum, as a result
of Mr.. Gould's generosity.
Some well-informed politicians
place the amount which Mr..
Gould had given to aid in the
election of Mr.. Cleveland at
$3.50, 0,0O0.'
What !! Jay Gould paying a
quarter of a million dollars to
elect Cleveland. How is his
railroad schemes and his gam
bling in Wall street to be ben
efitte1 and made more profita-
BILE by the election of Cleve-
land! Not a single fibre Of
GouldPs nature was in sympa-
thy with Democratic princi-
pies. 1t was his boast that
with him politics was business.
Then if it was to the interest
of Jay Gould to join the Dem
ocratic party it is because there
is nc Democracy in it. There
is fun ahead. You will see it
when the Democratic party
tries to serve the money Devil
and the people at the same
time. This is probably what
Watterson meant when he said
that the Democratic party was
between the Devil and the deer
blue sea.

What Vance Thinks Congress Should
Do.

Senator Vance was interviewed
a few days since by one of the
Raleigh papers. In reply to the
inquiry as to what he thought the
chief Legislation which should be
enacted by the next Congress,
he said:
"First, to repeal the law au-
thorizing the employment OF
United States marshals at cleo
tons and absolutely wipe out
all vestiges of national intefer-
ence with State elections.
"Second. There is urgent need
for restraining by all means the
jurisdiction of federal courts un-
der which they now interfere
with the police powers of the
States.
"Third. Another important
duty which Congress should dis
charge is the enactment of laws
for purifying the pension lists,
and cutting off the abominab1e
and scandalous frauds which
now exists in the pension de-
.partment.
"Fourth. The most important,
perhaps, Of all the work to be
done is the thorough and radical
revision of the tariff. The duty
should be greatly reduced on
wool and woollens. and the me-
tails, with special referance to
putting the very lowest duties

Our Sentiments Exactly.

The following from the
pen of the talented editor of the
Hickory Mercury is SO timely
and appropriate that we copy it.
Editors destitute of brains and
character are very envious, and
devote most of their space to vii
living and abusing the personal
characters of their betters, SEN
sible people detect and condemn
this. But fools-well, they are

American delegates. in fact, ap-
pear to be pleased with the Roth
child plan and have authorized
the statement that they are thor
oughly satisfied with the turn OF
events.
What do the American people
think of that : We have believed
all along that this conference
was simply dodge gotten up by
the Democratic and Republican
machines, but it now seems that
they will have the cheek and
knavery to attempt to make mat
ters worse. The Democratic par
ty has denounced the Sherman
act and is pledged to repeal it.
yet the very act is made the cor
ner stone of the plan proposed by
the Rothchilds and agreed to by
the American delegates. What
will the Democrats do about it :
Baron Rothchilds in his speech
or rather in his orders to the con-
ference said:
"In England, a gold stan
dard is the only possible one,
and if we consider that the whole
commerce and a great part of
that of other countries is carried
on by bills of exchange on Lon
don, which are naturally paya-
bic in gold, it must be admitted
that the world generally trans
acts business on a gold basis,
and that a double standard, with
the exception of very modified
form, does not exist even in
those countries protesting to pay
in either metal
Of CouIse he wants this thing
to continue, but the people ofthe
United States do not. The Ba-
ron admits in his speech that
free and unlimited coinage OF
silver would destroy England's
position as the worlds banker

do about it ? The people will

from now accordingly.

Let Congress Meet as Soon as Possible

The people have just elected
a new Congress. Lover taxes
and more money is what has
been promised the people.
There is great need for prompt
action. But according to GUS
tom this Congress will not
meet till December, 1898, a
year from now. This is wrong,
it is undemocratic, it is unre-
publican. Congress should
meet soon after an election,
and legislate upon the ques-
tons at issue. The Constitu-
ton does not Gas may be sup
posed) fix the time; Congress
does it itself. Then why fol-
low this senseless and hurtful
custom any longer? There can
never be any considerable re-
form on any line without
breaking precedents. But we
fear nothing will be done. For
in our opinion the regular ses-
sion of Congress will come be-
fore the Democrats want it to.
They have promised more than
they intend to do. Already
Cleveland and many promi-
nent Democrats are saying that
we must go slow. Go slow in
deed! If the people are suf-
fering from the Mckinley bill
as much as you said they were
during the campaign, why
should you wait fifteen months
to give them relief : With all
of your talk and study on the
tariff, if you don't know how
to commence reforming it at
once, then you were not fit to
be placed in power. Then, too,
you must hurry up, SO you
can give the people relief on
the money question. It really
seems that the Democrats don't
want "a chance" after it has
| been given to them.
