an article in the Montgomery Jour.

election saws:
thereafter no certifcation of the
result of an election other than that
shown by the votes lawfully cast
shall stand in Alabama. The exer-
else of such methods by the party in

THE RALEIGH ORGAN slLENCEO.

The News Observer Chronicle in
an editorial challenged The CAUCA-
SIAN to show any changes made in
the election law by the Supreme
court decision in the case of Harris
vs.. Scarborough. In the same edito
rial that paper intimated that THE
CAUCASIAN should familiarize itself
with the law and the decision. The
CAUCASIAN IN its reply, quoted the
law, and also quoted from the ma
Jorlty opinion of the court to show
that it changed the law by making
the voter responsible for neglect of
duty of the registrar. We gave IL
Illustrations showing how a registrar
could easily show favoritism to the
extent of disfranchising his political
opponents, and that the Supreme
court decision sustained him in it.
We asked the Observer to say wheth-
er or not it thought this was right
and just. This silenced the Raleigh
organ. 1t may have learned some
thing itself or 1t may realize that one
or two papers can no longer keep the
truth from the people.

THE SEIGN.ORAGe BILL.

Before The CAUCASIAN reaches
many of its readers, the action of the
President toward it will be known,
The law requires that within ten
days after the passage of bill by
Congress, that the President shall
sign 1t or write his objections on it
and return to Congress, which is
called vetolng bill. If the Presi-
dent does neither, then the bill be-
comes law at the end of the tenth
day. Up to date President Cleve-
lapd has neither signed nor vetoed
the seignlorage bill. This is his last
day of grace.
We can't see how the rankest gold
bug could object to such a simple
business proposition, as using money
on hand to meet expenses. We could
not expect any one but a hired agent
of the bond holders to prefer to bor-
row money and pay interest on it,
while the government has this silver
lying idle in the Treasury vaults
We believe that the President, as hos
tile as he is to silver and as friendly as
he is to the gold bugs, will sign the
bill.

A PERTINENT AND TIMELY QUESTION

PER IlhEkT AND TIMELY QUES ION
THE CAUCASIAN has received a
letter from a subscriber asking the
following question
Mr.. Editor - see in several Dem-
ocratic papers a statement 10 the e.-
feet that the Public Debt was r-duc-
ed $l2, 1886, 765 during the month o
February. Now, Mr.. Editor, IL vien
Of the fact THAI the Public Deb Ia
been increased By issuing go 900 ,
900 gold interest bearing Dond> du,
ing the month OF February, and thu
this was done because the govern
ment not only did not have MONEY
II pay any debts. but did not hav.
enough for current expenses. the
above statement needs some little tx
PLANTATION. Will you please give us
some light on it," etc.
We regret that our correspondent
did not send this question to some OF
the Democratic papers of the State
or nation. We don't believe any OF
them that published the above state
ment would have answered the aues-
ton, and II they had tried, ii would
have been amusing to see the reply.
For it Is a fact land we regret to
state it, that there are papers in
more than one party that are not
honest enough with their readers TO
give the facts, when the facts will
hurt their party.
That the statement about reducing
the public debt is basely false is d
self-evldent fact. But this question
gives us an opportunity to expose a
piece Of jugglery in connection with
that bond issue, that we intended to
refer to before. 1t is this: When
Carlisle advertised for bids for $50
OOO, 600 Of bonds to be paid for in
gold, the New York banks collected
some greenhacks, took them to the
Treasury and demanded that they be
redeemed. The law requires that
they be redeemed in coin. Mr.. Car
Isle, instead of redeeming them in
silver Of which he had plenty, re,
deems them in gold, thus cutting
down the gold reserve still further.
The bankers then offered the Secre-
tary back the same gold in payment
for the bonds. This amounted to be-
tween $4,000, 600 and $4,000, 900.
So Mr.. Carlisle lost gold by the trans
action and leaves the circulation of
the currency reduced over $12, O00,-
900, and in the place of the money
an Understanding debt. OF course
the gold bugs could have taken $780,
700, 900 of greenbacks, had them re-
deemed and debt put in their place
paying single dollar of |
gold into the treasury. But we sup
pose that they were afraid to be too
greedy lest they attract the attention
If the plain people to their jugglery
md infamy. The gold bugs always
'efer to the greenbacks as debt"
They do not refer to bonds as a debt
'ut means of Strengthening the
public credit"
So when they say the public debt
vas reduced $12,336,775, we suppose
hey mean that that money was tax
n out of circulation and an interest
earring debt put on the people.

TWO DEMOCRATIC PLATFORMS.
1S92-Give US a chance.
1o94-Give us another chance.

THE TEST OF LOYALTY IN ,sea & 1894
The big cuckoos and the little cue
koos of the State machine are now
putting forth the following as the
rule for their humble and obedien,
followers in the next campaign:
1.-The National Democratic plat,
form should be the party's chart,
but unqualified endorsement of
Cleveland's administration and con-
gress should not be the test of party
fealty."
In 1892 Cleveland was made the
test of party fealty. The editor of
The CAUCASIAN appealed to the State
tx. committee of the Democratic
party not to make such a test. But
the machine, hungering for spoils
and seeming the government pie
counter, said no, that Cleveland, the
ponderous gold bug, should be the
test down even to county conven-
tons. 1t was then that the editor
OF IHE CAUCASIAN walked out of the
party to preserve his Democracy.
And THE CAUCASIAN proposes to
feed the machine, that gang of spoil
hunters, with THEN own medicine.
Cleveland was made the test of DEM
ocracy in 1892, he should be the test
of Democracy now. Let the sheen
and the goats separate. If you are
a Cleveland man then you are a fit
ting follower of the Democratic ma
chine; get thee hence over with the
goats; If you are opposed to Cleve
land and his methods, and are a JEFF
fersonian Democrat, come over to
this side and stand with the people.
One word more: That CHICAGO
platform the chart! What does if
meant 1t means just what Cleve-
and has interpreted it to mean. If |
7ou ask a lawyer what the election
aw means, he will not point you to
he wording Of the law, but to the
supreme court decision on the law.
lie will not point you to the dissent
ng opinion of the court. So the
'hicago platform means what Cleye-
and and the Democratic administra-
ION has interpreted it to mean-for a
old standard and protective tariff.
nd this shall be the "test of loyal-
Y" in 1894. ,

A FOOLS EaRtNO.

Coxy, an Ohio millionaire crank,
has rallied an army OF unemployed
TO march to Washington to demand
certain legislation. He and his fol-
lowers started on their march from
Massillon, Ohio, on last Sunday.
The plutocrats will hire enough
thugs to join the crowd TO bring dis
grace on it. We expect to hear of
some of these hired thugs commit
ting acts of violence Then the plu-
tocratic press will charge it all up to
the Peoples party. If Coxy were fit
for a leader he could foresee all this.
There is sufficient cause for such a
demonstration, but as planned, it is
worse than fools Grand" We
fear the movement will result in
more harm than good.

The Charlotte Observer in a re-
cent editorial threw out some taffy
to the Editor of the Progressive Far
mer. A few days later we find the
following also in its editorial col
umns:
"The Hickory Mercury has round
ed up It's third year aud says 1T be-
gins the fourth with tiattering pros
poets"
This sounds a little suspicious.
The Progressive Farmer and Hick-
DRY Mercury should look well to
their laurels. Or it may be that in
this way the Observer is trying to
atone for barely slandering all men
who do not agree with it in politics
by calling them "fools."

We would like to know what other
course the Governor could pursue
when the old Republican officers re-
fused to give up the public til I The
fact Is that this resistance was made
because Waite was Peoples party
Governor, to give the press dispatch
monopoly a chance 10 misrepresent

thing else behind all this. The city
