Some of the machine papers have
gotten hold of a circular which we
sent out with some sample copies of
HE CAUCASIAN recently. They
are copying and bowling about the
following sentence: "Give The CAU-
CAsIAN enough readers and we prom
Ise that the State will 90 for the re-
form cause two years from now"
We not only acknowledge that we
wrote that we wrote that sentence
but We take this occasion to repeat
1t Is the truth of that statement
that causes the bowling. The very
conduct of these papers show that
they admit its truth, and by such
admission they pay The CAUCASIAN
and the cause it is battling for a
great big compliment. We propose
to turn on the light and give the
people the truth, and if enough peo-
people know the truth, then it is
bound to win. This is what fright
ems the politicians.

SAID few days ago that they could
rely on Ransom and six out of the
eight Democratic congressman of
North Carolina to vote for the I'M

them will ever be reelected from

AT every meeting get up petition
to Congress, cllling upon that body,
especially on the member from
your own district, not to vote to re-
peal the present silver law unless
free and unlimited coinage of silver
at the constitutional ratio is put in
Its stead. Pile your petitions and
demands on Congress. The gold
bugs are getting the Boards of Trade to
pass resolutions calling upon Con-
gress to repeal the law and put no
other silver law in its place. 1t is
the duty of the people to demand
what they want and what they know
to be right and honest.
