LET EN- DUMP.

By reference to Gen. Viewers Den
yer speech, in this issue, it will be seen
that he has no fears aoout English or
other silver that would be dumped
into this country" if the free coinage
bill should pass. Let 'em dump. The
more silver we have, the happier we
will be.
The English people want to make,
or rather save, 81 cents on every
bushel of wheat, or 81 cents on every
pound of cotton bought from us. We
cannot afford to allow this thing to go
on, and every man who cares anything
for his own and the country's welfare
will not hesitate about putting his vote
in for the party that has free and un-
limited coinage" in its platform.

GENERAL NOTES.

Alexander county convention was
largely attended. Every township
was represented. A full county and
legislative ticket was nominated.
A full and splendid Peoples party
County Convention was held at Ashe-
boro, Randolph county, last Thursday.
Agood county ticket was put out.
The Beaufort county Peoples party
Convention wasa large and enthusiastic
one. Every precinct was represented
and a full county ticket nominated.
Tyrren county convention was har-
m~onious. Delegates were appointed
to State, District and Senatorial Con-
ventions. Every township was repre-
sented.
Mr.. W. d. King, Of Orange county,
writes that he has been a Republican
for q years, but has become satisfied
that there is nothing good to come out
of either of the old parties and that
henceforth he viii be found fighting in
the ranks Of the Peoples party.
A correspondent writing from Yad-
kin College, says heis a half brother

IN A "PEcK" OF TROUBLE.

CONSERVATION was thrown into the
Democratic camp a few days g when
Labor Commissioner Peck, of New
York, a Democrat, published his report
showing replies from over 5000 manu-
facturers in the State of New York,
who claim that they have raised the
wages of their employees since the Nc
Kinley bill passed.
1t was a bad blow to the tariff re-
formers(O but not a serious n to the
country. The Democrats seem to be
afraid to undertake any excuses, asthe
Democratic House, with its 14s tariff
reform majority failed to attempt the
repeal of the Mckinley William, so we
propose to express an opinion. In the
first place, 5000 letters from 5000 New
York manufacturers, saying they have
increased wages, does not make it So.
New York manufacturers would rather
tell a falsehood about it than the truth.
If they didn't say they had increased
wages, it would be a powerful argu-
ment against the protection policy.
Again, they MAY have increased the
wages for the effect it will have on this
election, but the increase may not be
very large. The Republicans have lost
several States in the West and since
the Weaver cyclone went through
there they are out of about ten or
twelve. They r making every effort
to carry New York. Doubtless the
good showing was made by manufac-
turers for nothing else than political
effect. Democratic papersarestrangeIy

the Peoples party, which denounces
the present system of so-called protec-
ton a fraud.

THE DEMOCRATIC ANNEX.

The Peoples party has been accused
of being an annex to the Republican
party in this State. This is mistake.
The Eaves blowout in this city last
week is real Democratic annex, how
ever. The Democrats quietly but
effectively got in their work and in
duced Eaves and a few associates to
put out a State ticket just as we
predicted last week. The best men
in the Republican party opposed the
move to the last. The ticket is the
outcome of machine Democratic Tin
fuence" and Republican revenue office
holders.
The whole thing is run in the interest
of the Democratic party and is a side
show to the party. Republicans who
support that ticket will just simply be
aiding the Democratic party, for there
is no chance for the Republicans to
elect their ticket owing to the State
election laws. by which all the votes
of illiterate persons can be thrown out.
"a vote for the Eaves gang is a vote
for the Democratic State and National
ticket" Eaves may manage to defeat
the Peoples party with his revenue
Democratic ticket, though we believe
the reform party will whip BOTH"
Disreputable political methods will
fail sooner or later, and Democratic
Simmons and Revenuer Radical EaYes
have got a big job before them when
they undertake to whip the great
Peoples party.
IF you doubt any of the above see
the State election law published in this
issue. Not less than SO, 900 Republican
votes will be thrown out in that way
and perhaps many reform votes.

NORTH CAROLINA FORCE BILL

Below will be found the North Caro-
lima election law, as amended by recent
legislatures. We only publish section
1858, as that is the part that needs
particular notice at this time.
It can be seen that there is nothing
compelling that section to be enforced,
but it is left discretionary with the
Judges of election as to the manner Of
arranging the polling places.

GOLD AN IDOL.

An exchange says: "Man is a pecu-
liar animal. In all ages of the world
he has manifested a wild desire to set
up idols of some kind"
The above is true, and the people of
America few of them-have set up
an idol that is as absurd as a Chinese
god. While our far away neighbors In
Africa worship stones or animals, some
of u people worship gold. But this
idol Worship is comparative harmless,
considered with the superstition that
makes the products of the whole world
tributary to a few bankers and bond
holders. Let us reason a little. The

United States was $50, 8S7, 169. What

POLITICAL POINTS

Madison county is alive for the re-

Wilson county Peoples party put
out a good ticket and expect to win.
We learn that negro poll holders are
being appointed in Nash, LenoiT and

In answer to numerous e~nquirers we

is Des Moines, Iowa.
A Weaver and Exum Club with SO
members has been formed at Orange

Every township was represented in
the P. P. Convention recently held at
Kenansville, Duplin county.

nothing compared to the demands upon
it as a basis to do the billions of dollars
worth of business every year. The
output of gold is diminishing every
year, hence no sane man, not himself

1885, TRLL Us.

DR.. Sanderlin does not agree with
orr informant as to the language used
3 the time and place. We are in
clined to believe that he is mistaken,
and that our informant did not mean
the BRYAN Grove picnic speech. but
one made in Wake County Alliance
several months or a year ago. We
have not seen the gentleman who gave
us the information yet, For lack OF
space. we cut down DR.. Sanderlin's
letter, but publish all bearing on the
question at issue.
In a conversation with the writer
some months ago DR.. Sanderlin did
use about the same language ascribed
to him in our editorial last week. But
let that rest in peace.
Now viii DR.. Sanderlin tell the dear
people a thing or two2 In his letter In
this issue he quotes from his speech at
Bryan's Grove as follows:
"I was urging the necessity of farm
r preserving their organization as a
means of promotion and protection of
their best interests against the capital
istic combinations and unjust legisla-
ton directed against them"
That was good advice. We entirely
agree with Bro. Sanderlin in that. We
have no doubt he honestly believed
that was the right kind of advice. But
what we wish to know is: What good
will it do to preserve an organization
without accomplishing something. The
Alliance is a great educational organ
ization. People know more about what
they need politically and otherwise
than at any period in our country's
history. Yet this great organization,
like the fragrant lump-of clay" the
Doctor mentions, has shed its influence
on the old parties to no purpose. It
has been completely ignored, until the
Peoples party found birth. Now will
the Doctor tell what hope there is in
the party be advocates9

THEIR ACCEPTANCE.

In his speech accepting the Demo
cratic nomination for President, Mr..
Cleveland used good English. He
always does. But there was not the
faintest hope of financial relief or nv
thing of that nature to be CLEANED from
it. It seems that he carefully avoided
saying anything that could be con
strued or misconstrued. If he should
come South and see unrewarded labor
and raise 6 cent cotton a few years he
might be a different man. IF he could
go West and struggle with a mortgage
and be carried several miles by a
cyclone now and then, perhaps he
would repent. AS it is he lives in the
prosperous air of Wall street. IF he
ever was poor he has forgotten all
about it. His eyes r closed to the
necessity for a change. AS long as
corporations can breed millionaires he
will stolidly refuse to listen to all
reason.
Mr.. Harrison in his letter accepting
the nomination differs from Mr.. Cleve-
land in one respect. He is in and
wants to stay in. Mr.. Cleveland is
out and wants to get in. Mr.. Harrison
attacks the policy of the Democratic
party, but offers nothing better. He
simply hopes that the threadbare and
false doctrines of protection will again
place him In power. The Democratic
platform has something about State
banks. He opposes that, but suggests
no change by which the government
can again control our money. He
talks about honest elections, but ig-
nores the fact that the whole people
have been cheated out of their votes
by the politicians for several elections.
The Democratic rot about State banks
was put In to catch suckers. 1t is
contrary to the teachings of Jefferson,
who opposed any plan to issue money
except by the National Government.
President Harrison asserts that 1.-THE
general condition of our country is
one of great prosperity, "notwithstand-
ing the terrible state of affairs existing.
He is said to be an Elder in the Pres
byterian Church, but he will have to
stick closer to the truth than that if
he passes muster.
Altogether there is nothing in the
promise of the would-be rulers. The
Gar of Russia or King of Spain are
nearer their subjects than either. The
policy of Cleveland and Harrison seems
to be to helm the strong and Cypress
the weak. They knownorcare nothing
about anybody worth less than a mil
lion. Nothing would be said by either,
if elected, about Congress looking after
the farmers or mechanics. Contrast
their records with that of Weaver I'D
see which deserves your vote.
