MONEY FOR THE PEOPLE.

A certain member of Congress
said:
would not only substitute
United States notes, or treasury
notes, if you choose, for nation
al bank notes, as they are being
retired, but I would substitute
that sort of money for all hand
issues and I would do even
more than that; I would not
make money out Of promise to
pay; tina t is to say, I would not
write out a promise to pay mon
ey aud call that promis e money;
but l would use a piece OF paper
just as we are now using a piece
of gold or a piece of silver, and
make that money, providing in
the law what its functions shall
be. That puts the influence,
the credit and The power of all
the people behind the money.
Then we will have gold and sill
yer and paper at par, one with
the other; and that if we will
reduce rates Of interest down to
the level of profit on labor, so
that men can make as much
money farming Or blacksmith
ing or carpentering as they can
by lending money, will give US
a safe currency, a sound finan-
cial system and no more money
panics.
II there were many such men
there, it would be a Congress of
the people Instead Of a Congress
of the money devil and the mo.

DR.. KINGsBURY SUGGESTS
That the Democrats Join with the
BLACK and Tan Party" TO De-
feat Reform.

From Wilmington Messenger, June sth.]
1t may come to pass yet that
the Democrats and Republicans
may have to get together to
save the country from the rule
and ruin party of impracticable
1t may yet become a necessity
that the two old parties shall
lock shields in opposition to H.
nancial cranks and revolution
lists who seem bent ON destroy
ing the Republic. When the
Government is threatened to be
transformed into a regular huge
pawn-broker's shop and into a
Strong Government despotism it
is high time for the PATRIOTS of
the country to combine for its
salvation"

The News and Observer asks
somebody else to do what it can

things.
" ell, why does not the News
and Observer take up the argu-
hieuIS OF these "new philoso-
ophers" and answer them? Why
dld not som of the old philos-
piers meet these new ones on
the stump? Ridicule and abuse
is not argument and it will rot

W o wish to hide the truth
have no other course left to
them. We,challenge the News

gument of the Alliance speak

pal ticular they have deceived

They are not afraid Of the PEG

you ever could in the history
of our country?" That may be

many more physicians bills,

will a dollar pay? Will it pay
four times as much as it did j.
and how will a dollar cost to
get it?
A tramp ran up to a gentle
man one day and asked him IL
he could tell him where he
could get a good square meal.
The man pointed out a place
where he could get a meal for
a quarter. Tie tramp thanked
him and started off, but had
not gone far when he came
running back, "you were so
kind to tell me where / could
get nice meal for a quarter.
Will yon now tell me where ]

is the way with the politicians;
they keep telling us what We
can buy for a dollar, but they
do not tell where we can get

Under the above heading the

No.. there was no Force bill
at Clinton, and the speaker who
tries to work that racket in this
section will get left. The Gin
ton Convention was not COM
posed of suckers. They were

THEuLEGALITY OF TRUSTS.

The courts of every State in
the Union, when the question
of the Iawfulness OF such com
biuations has been pres snted -
and this has been many times
have declared them to be IL
legal, besides being against pub
lie policy. Trusts are unlaw-
full, because, through the sur
render, by many differing and
distinct corporations and by the
individuals composing them, OF
the power to manage and con-
troll themselves, and by deliver
ing over their corporate powers
to some other person, as we'll al
by engaging through the trust
in many kinds Of business not
authorized by their respective
charters, they have done pro
hibited things. The corpora
ton so doing forfeits its right
to exist to the people who be-
slowed it, and the trust existing
solely through these violations
of law is itself null. The prin-
ciples underlying these decis-
ions of the courts are recognize
ed by the fundamental law OF
nearly all the States, and most
notably have they been en-
forced by the judiciary of the
State of New York in the "Su-
gar Trust" cases, where by
three tribunals, through three
successive and deliberate opin-
ions, the law has been an

SENATOR COKE ON CLEVE,
LAND,

In the us. Senate on the 26th
of April last, Senator Richard
Coke made a speech on free
coinage of silver, in which he
showed up the record of Cleve.
land on that question. The
Chalotte Observer may ask why
the Democratic Senators didn't
refute the charge and bring Sen.
ator Coke to the charge and
bring Senator Coke to the bat.
No doubt the Observer will,pro-
nouce it a 'libel," for that is a
favorite word with i but the
speech stands on record, The
Waterman will have some
thing more on this line soon.
Senator Coke said:
The executive department
OF the government, in all
its branches. from Hayes
administration to Harrison's
including C1eveland's, has been
thoroughly and completely un-
der the control AMI influence
and dictation of tie great CAP
italistic combination which has
just scored another victory
against the people on the silver
issue. All the administrations
made bitter,savage war on silver
and left no means untried to
discredit and break it down and
debase it. Nobody knew how

question until after he " as cleo
