PRESIDENT CLEVELAND AND WALL
STREET.
Editor Charlotte Obs.ryer. I

Populist Solomons at last believe
that Grover Cleveland is anxious ia
put things right by weakening the
parity Of gold and silver, if 1T can be
done? A E,purp
Will this 50 A Farmer please in
form the people what reason there
Is for such belief? If the "misled
Alllanccman and Populist Solonlans''
were realing only the sheets Isuch a ;
"A Farmer evidently r,a Is ] that blind
the truth and distort the facts. then
they might be in the same fix as the
mlslcd and partisan blind "a Farm
er." But it is perfectly clear to
''mlsIed Alllancemen" who read
both sides what is the matter with
"a Farmer" He reads the Char
lotte Observer or some Other party
boSs-Ser'lng sheet. \ few days ago
these papers came out with double
head lines saying "Cleveland and
Carlisle had refused the proposition
of the Wall Street bankers" and then
went on to argue that this showed
that the administration was with the
people and against Wall Street.
When the facts are, that Cleveland
and Carlisle are carrying out exactly
the same policy pursued by Harrison
and Foster and the Democrats them
selves said that Wall Street run that
administration. We dare any Dem
ocratlc paper to deny this. Next
that proposition of Wall Street was
all a bogus affair to fool the people.
The very next week Carlisle went to
New York pretending that he went
to the big Naval Review, but it was
to consult with Wall Street and he
did consult with Wall Street and the
consultation was satisfactory to both
sides. We dare any Democratic
sheet to deny this. Again what has
Carlisle and Cleveland decided to
do: To pay out gold till it is all
gone. Does this please Wall Street?
1t is exactly what they want done.
If the people doubt it, let them rise
en- masse and demand that Carlisle
pay out silver instead of gold which
is lawful (and we dare the Democrat
ic papers and Mr.. Cleveland to denv
it) and see what howl it will raise
in Wall Street. Why does this policy
please Wall Street? Because when
the administration says that it will
not pay ont silver but will pay gold
only, when the gold is all out what
is the only thing left to do? 70
issue more bonds, interest bearing
bonds and letsWall Street buy them
up with the gold that they are draw
ing out and hording for this very
business. Thus putting another in
famous tax burden upon the people
to enrich more bond holders from
the sweat and toll of labor. Does
the administration intend to do this?
Watch these Democratic papers,
every few days they say "that Cleve-
land and Carlisle do not want to
issue bonds if they can help it"
which shows that they intend to do
1t and are preparing the people for
it. We dare these Democratic par
tisan sheets to deny this. Every
"misled Allianceman and Populist
Solomon" who has been reading
both sides understand this, but GA
Farmer who has been reading only
his partisan sheet is being misled-
he does not know any better. If he
will give his name some merciful
and patriotic Allianceman will sub
scribe to THE CAUCASIAN and send
it to him for while.

The Following Letter viii Explain Itself.

CONCORD, May 2, 1893.
Mr.. EDIToR:-The following APP
peared in The Concord Times of
April 9th:
Marion Butler delivered two
hours harangue of rotten politics at
NJ Gilead last Thursday. He left
that night. He had resolutions
passed condemning the last legisla-
ture for amending the Alliance char
ter. He also carried in his pocket a
little paper asking for money for
gideonite brother Otho Wilson. We
don't know how much of the hard
earnings of Cabairus county farm
ers he carried along with him.
Every man who heard you is ready
to give the above the lie j. II. s.
All we have to say in addition to
the above is that every statement
made by the editor of The Times is
absolutely false.
