GROSS-BROWN.
Two Souls With But a Single
Thought-The United States
Senate.

The announcement of Adjutant
General Gross candidacy for the
State Senate is accepted as an
authentic announcement Of Gov.
Browns candidacy for the United
States Senate against Judge VIM.
Lindsay, of this city. 1t is probable
that the whole State now will soon be
in the throes Of a Lindsay-Brown
struggle for State Senators and
Representatives. There is much i'm
portant work for the next Legislature
to perform and the very best material
should be selected to do it. What
Gen. Cross claim to such standard
may be based upon has not been dis
covered in this city. He is clever
enough, if that could be made a use
full qualification, but as far as ability
is considered he is known chiefly for
slapping President Cleveland on the
knee and refusing to allow Frankfort
merchants payment for goods bought
and used by the State. If he should
be elected he will be in politics up to
his eyes, helping to "boost" his
friend, the Governor, into the seat,
many times too large for him, which
Judge Lindsay is filling with such
distinguished ability.

THE GOVERNORS VETO.
Appropriations by the Legisla-
ture Held to he Too Liberal
by the Most Costly Cover
nor the State Ever Had.

Gov. Brown vetoed the general APP
preparation bill Tuesday, aiming
his objections chiefly at the clerks
and assistant clerks of the Senate and
House, and also the colored porters
of the State departments who per-
formed extra services during the
session Of the Legislature. The law
requires the printing Of all bills in
the course of their passage in each
house and makes the clerks RESPONSE
BILE for the safe keeping of the origi-
nal drafts. 1t is we'll known that
printers, in order to finish their work
within a reasonable time, must have
copies that can be cut into "takes"
and distributed among the compost
tors, and to do this it is necessary to
copy the original drafts of the bills.
This work was not performed by the
clerks, but by others, whose services
the clerks were obliged to engage,
upon order of the Legislature, to have
the printing done. The colored por-
ters, in most instances, performed
their extra services in attending to
committee meetings at nights,
and only secured total sums ranging
from $26 to 800 to supplement the
very small salaries Of $25 and $35
a month received by them for con-
slant labor during the day. Besides
these the veto will deny payment
for copying bills to many worthy per-
sons in the city. including a large
number Of hard working ladies who
have children to support, the ground
Of the objection to this section being
that 25 cents page is not definite
sum to be paid; that the claims should
have been audited and the aggregate
sums specified in the bill. AS the
work on some bills was not complete,
and the accounts of all who did the
copying not rendered at the time
Of the passage of the appropri-
alton act, this requirement of the
Governor could not have been met.
The objections to the other sections
were based chiefly on the idea that
the executive thought the regular
pay was "liberal remuneration for
their services" an assumption of
wisdom and desire for reform, supe-
rior to the entire legislative body,
which, in a Governor who allowed
the Legislature to adjourn during the
session and then called the members
back almost at the next train to patch
up his costly plumbers and is now
costing the State over So, 900 month
for her idle convicts, measures a ca
pacity to save the drippings at the
spigot, even at the waste of the out
pouring at the bung-hole. And yet
such short-sighted, close-ranging
Governor aspires to succeed Judge
VIM. Lindsay in the United States
Senate.

High Living,

if you keep at it, is apt to tell on the
liver. The things to prevent this are
DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. Take
one of these little Pellets for a cor
rective or gentle laxative-three for
a Cathartic. They're the smallest,
easiest to take, pleasantest and most
natural in the way they act. They
do permanent good. Constipation,
indigestion, bilious attacks, sick or
bilious headaches, and all derange-
ments of the liver, stomach, and
bowels are prevented, relieved, and
cured.
They're guaranteed to give satisfac-
ton in every case, or your money re-
funded.

THE STATE TREASURY.
Deficit and Taxes Coming in to
Meet all Demands.

There was drop of over $4,000 in
the balance in the State Treasury on
July as compared with the balance
on June 1, and the deficit in the gen
eral expenditure fund grew in the
same month from $201,776.S7 to
1926, 369.54; but as the banks are
rapidly paying in their State taxes
and the sheriffs will within the next
week be set at work collecting the
taxes from the individual tax payers,
there is reason to believe the State
will have ample funds to meet all
demands, and especially the large
sums necessary now for the charita-
BILE institutions and the next school
warrant due in October.
The following is the statement of
the accounts as tested between the
books of the Auditors and Treas
urer's offices for the month ending

PREPARING TO UNITE.

1t was only a short while since that
the press dispatches contained an
item Of news TO the effect that Demo
Gratis and Republicans in Kansas
would assemble in the same conven-
tons, unite their forces and begin
systematic war on the POpulists in
that State as they now control the
affairs of the State government.
The dispatch stated that the call
for the conventions was intended for
all patriotic citizens who desired to
wrest the State from anarchy O. as
the defeated elements of both the old
parties term it.
If such u course is pursued it will
not be surprising at all, for a great
number of the leading Democrats of
this country are now i'll league with
prominent leaders of the Republican
party. An example Is Grover, the
Great, and John Sherman who stands
before the American people to-day
convicted Of one the most damnable
crimes of the age.
Indeed, politics makes strange bed
fellows, as the old saying goes.
Grover and John are great chums
now. The latter's services are in
valuable at this time.
The two old parties have pooled
their issues, if the tone of many of
the leading papers counts for any
thing, especially on the finance ques-
ton. When the n. Y. World, the
foremost Democratic paper in this
country, says that "John Sherman
is u patriot" it is time for all trae
men to be vigllant, for there will be
bargain and sale somewhere.
Straws generally indicate the di
rection the wind is blowing. Reat

folk Landmark of Sept. 9Th:

The silver men should make an eff
fort to demonetize gold now that the
goldbugs Of the east are endeayor-
ing to rob the people of their homes
by confiscating their property. If
silver is wiped out as money of
the Constitution we will hear of suf-
fering and oppression in this coun-
try from sources that are now enjoy
ing comparative prosperity. If the

"GROSS ABUSES"

That are Bringing Contempt and Ruin
Upon a DishOnored Party---The Populist
Party Better Than the Ballot BOX STUFF
hng Democratic Party.
Wilmington Messenger, May, 1881
We take leave just here to reiter-
ate our we'll considered, honest opin-
ion that North Carolina now stands
very much in need of a good Elec-
ton Law-the Australian or some
other. Gross abuses have crept in
that are dishonoring to the party and
will bring contempt and ruin upon it
if persisted it. We know educated,
able, high-toned gentlemen who are
unswervingly Democratic, who would
prefer the triumph of the Third par
ty to the triumph of the Democracy
by resorting to low, dangerous, de.
structive methods at the ballot-box.
They have said so in our hearing;
They believe that Third partyism il
a less evil than ballot abuses. Lei

to follow are conservative reformers.
Such man wants to change the
present condition, so AS to give every
man who will labor a chance to en-
jOy the fruits of his labor. Such a
man works to bring about these
changes justly and patriotically, and
through the peaceful agency Of the
ballot box The people need re-
formers whose zeal and enthusiasm
is tempered with wisdom, and a due
regard for the rights Of olhers-ot
all classes. This kind of a man is
more hated by the monopolists and
their tools, the politician and the
hired press, than is a wild rash ia.

CONGRESS.

The Senate branch of congress is
still cussing and discussing the silver
question, with a determination on
each side to carry their points if pos
sible. The House having done its
do has turned its attention to other
matters. We see bill has been in
PRODUCED allowing the reopening and
investigation of Pension claims that
have been passed upon-where there
is a suggestion that the claim has
been illegally allowed. This is well
enough. The Pension Roll should
he roll of honor and none should
be upon it who are under serving.
And while on this subject We will
remark that it is damnable shame
that man, who is holding position
under the government drawing big
salary for labor he is rendering the
government should be on the pension
roll drawing pension for incipacity
to labor. Now is there any justice
in paying Walter Q. Gresham or any
other member of the cabinet, men,
Der of congress, minister or consul a
pension where, they are drawing
fabulous salaries as government Of
ficials. We know that this class of
pensioners stand in no jeopardy, so
long as this government is managed
and controlled by those who are now
and have been controlling it for the
last quarter of a century; but we say
it is shame just the same. We dc
not know that it will be changed,
but we are hoping for it at any rate
Let the pension rolls be revised and
as good place to start at Is at the
top, and come down.

Bland in one of his silver speeches
denounced the goldbugs of his party
quite severely and said that in their
efforts to strike down silver "any-
body or any party that undertakes
to do it, will, in Gods name, be
trampled-as it ought to be-in the
dust of condemnation now and in
the future. l speak as a democrat,
but yet as an American above de-
mocracy. We do not intend that
any party shall survive, if we can
help it, that will lay its confscating
hand on America in the interest of
England or Europe" If Bland is
an honest man he should at once
sever his connection from the Dem
ocratic party.

THE QUESTION OF RATIO.

In 1892 Mr.. Bland said, cit is
claimed, and the history of prices
show, that as silver falls as compared
to gold so in about the same ratio
the prices of our farm products fall.
To say that silver is low is tanta-
mount to saying that the price of
cotton, wheat, and other farm ex-
ports is depressed. ut is beyond a
doubt" he continued, "that the free
coinage of silver by decreasing the
value of gold and increasing the
value of silver, aud thus bringing
them about to par, would add at
least from II to Is per cent. to the
value of all farm products so that
it is clearly seen that the gain of the
silver miner as compared to the gain
of the American farmer by the free
coinage of silver is practically in
significant Farmers ought there
fore to be interested in and in favor
of free coinage. Are they interested
in the question of ratio or is that a
matter of Indifference to them
Would they be affected by a change
of ratio? Let's see. If wheat, cot
ton and other farm exports decline
in price in about the same degree
that silver declines as compared will
gold, then the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at any ratio, by pre-
venting a decline in the value of sill
yer, would prevent also decline il
the price of farm products. Silve
would be less valuable at create
ratio than at a less ratlo,-less val
liable at the ratio of 20 to l than a
16 to l. And 80 farm product
would be more valuable at the rati
of 16 to l than if the ratio is change,
to 20 to l or "a to l. The farme
is therefore no less interested in tn
matter of the ratio than in the mat
ter of the free coinage; and he i
interested III both not less than tn
silver miner.
