George William Childs was born in Bal
timOre, Md, May IL, 1929. He was edu-
Gated at private schools in his native city
and when but Il years OF age removed to
Philadelphia. Soon afterward he became
clerk in book store, and after a service
Of four years opened Il store Of his own in
the old Ledger building at Third and
Chestnut streets. In the course Of time
Mr.. Childs entered the publishing bust
ness, and at the age OF 2l was the head Of
the firm Of Childs & Peterson. He was
successful as publisher and many works
Of rare excellence, including DR.. Allitone' s
Dictionary of English and American
Authors were given to the public.
Iu 1868 he retired from the firm and on
Dec. 3, 1864, became the proprietor of the
Public Ledger. From being an unremun.
erative and small paper it soon became
under his management the most profitable
and one Of the largest newspapers in the
city Of Philadelphia. Mr.. Childs has made
liberal use Of his wealth for benevolent
purposes. At his own expens;
he caused a stained glass win
dow to be placed in Westminster

poet Thomas Moore in the church at Brom

Childs has always been regarded as G
model employer and has commanded the
respect and love Of all in his service, Hi
wife was a granddaughter OF Judge John
| Bouvier. Her mother, the wife Of Charles
j. Peterson, the publisher, wrote treaties
on astronomy that were praised by Sir
John Herschcl and Lord Rosse.
Mr.. Chids was considered one OF tbs
greatest phlanthTopists OF the presen
century. He was a contributor to al

and helpful life Mr.. Child is survived by

Whereas the Secretary of our Ma

National Congress the Issuing of
$500, ,000 in bonds, and whereas,
our people have been, and are now,

Indebtedness, and we think such re-

Therefore, resolved by Chatham

fully appeal to our Senators and Re

Mr. EDIToR:- 1t is very seldom
that | write anything for publication
but as you nave no correspondent
from this county | have decided to
let you hear from us.
/ he Peoples party was very strong
III TINS county in 1892, polling some
thing over 1900 votes. Since that
time, however, We haze received large
acce3si0ns to our numbers and it is
an evident fact now that large ma
JorIty of the voters OF this county
will vote the PopuIist ticket this
fall. The conduct of the admits
tratlon at Washington has complete
ly disguised all honest Democrats,
and henceforth they will vote as all
true Democrats 3hould-the populist
ticket.
There are some local matters which
have served to strengthen us here.
The attempt to break up the Popu-
list rally in Monroe last fall by
sprlnkllng pepper in the court house,
was an example of the methods used
by the machine to carry its points.
That very act has made numbers of
votes for us here. The party is in
good shape, there being large clubs
already organized in nearly every
township. "Our Home" is doing
good local work and will aid us ma
terjalIy during he coming campaigU.
We Ike TIE CAUCASIAN. North
Carolina has long needed just such a
paper. Long may it live to fight
for the liberties Of the people.

Ma EDIToR:-I wish to inform
the brethren through THE CAUcA-
SIAN, Of the interest manifested III
the Alliance cause and reform move
ment in Onslow county. The peo-
pie generally are more anxious than
ever to learn the truth as TO the cause
Of our great financial depression.
We all know that there is some
thing wrong somewhere, or there
gould not be SO much distress in
land Of plenty, among those VINO are
making the country rich, but they
themselves are growing poorer every
day.
Our County Alliance met at Rich
lands, Jau. 25th, at one o'clock, p.
NJ. We had large delegation, near
ly every surveillance being represent
ed. We had u very interesting meet
iEg-it seemed TO be profitable to all.
On the goth we had very large
cro"d present though the weather
was extremely disagreeable. We
hardly could have expected our
speaker, Bro Butler, who had to ride
30 miles through rain and sleet, but
we We're not disappointed.
We had the pleasure Of listening
to one of the ablest speeches that it
has ever been our good fortune to
listen to by one of North Cardinals
noblest and most patriotic sons, Ma
rion Butler. The most ignorant
could not failed to understand the
cause of the financial Depression
Then he pointed out the way to rem
edy the evil. An unbiased man has
only to hear him to be convinced
that our only hope is to show our
manhood at the ballot box by voting
for such men as will stand firm to
the last for our demands which will
give us happy and prosperous coun-
try. If we had enough such men as
Marion Butler We would find no trou-
BILE in getting our rights.
After our hearts were flied to
overlooking with the many good
things Bro. Batter said, we then had
the pleasure Of feasting on the many
nice things the good ladies had pre-
pared to satisfy the inner man, which
they know how to prepare in good
style.
We have only found one who would
not hear the speech, he is not yet
willing to met "Maryann,"
