something.
Now comes the Republican
State convention, many of the
delegates kicking against fusion,
and Eaves and Brady fighting it
in public print and by personal
influence; but,Grant's letter had
gone forth advocating this com
bine-he is the originator of
the scheme-he is reputed to
carry the negro vote of the State
''in his pocket" and can deliver it
where he pleases; he therefore,
becomes dictator of the situa-
ton, and the compact which he
made with the Pops is adopted
.fttsion is consummated: the Re
publicans and Populists join in
mutual 'co-operation" to defeat
the Democratic party in North
Carolina.
The line of battle is now fully
drawn up, and what THE ARGUS
has always warned the people as
to results is now clearly mani
fest-the Pop,llists and Republi-
cans are one and the same or
ganizatiOn, combined in forces,
mutual in sympathy, desperate
in their hatred of Democracy.
Shall they have any countenance
from men of this fair State who
love home and country? Let
their comfort. rather, come from
Hoar and such like New Eng
land South hating, corruption-
fund furnishing Radicals, whose
emissary H L. Grant is, whose
colleague Marion Butler is.
Let there be no mistake as to
the attitude and designs Of this
odious and hideous combination.
1t is against the Democratic
party; it is against our State
Government; it is against the
spread of education and the spirit
of liberty; it stands for the sue
cess of the Republican party III
North Carolina; and we all know
what that would entail upon ou1
commonwealth, for we have been
there once = in reconstruction
times.
The only way to meet this com
bination is by square and uncom
promising fight for Democratic
principles, for the Democratic
organization and the Democratic
nominees. There must be nc
trimming or equivocation. We
want a plain, old-fashioned Dem
cratic campaign. We must stant
by our guns without fear o.
| favor.
The issue is made up. It is
clearly defined. and no true
Democrat will waver. Populisn
and Republicanism are one, ant
together must receive in Nortl
Carolina such thrashing as wa
given them under Kolb in Ala
bama last month. We must bur,
the Butler Grant mongrel com
binatiOn beneath an avalanche
of Democratic votes in Novem
Der. We must maintain Demo
cratic supremacy and good gov
ernment in North Carolina.

THE rich men of Japan have
much to learn in the way of
making patriotism profitable.
They have just lent their Gov
ernment $50, 900, 900 and the loan
is not to bear any interest. When
our Government needed the sin
ews of war our rich men aso
came nobly forward buying
United States bonds at about
forty cents on the dollar, and
drawing comfortable rate of
per cent interest. When the
war was long over they secured
retroactive legislation making
the Government redeem it's pa.
per promises in hard gold. This
was under Republican rule.

HATRED OF HIPPoLYrE.
A Revolutionary Bubble in Hayti,
Which May Burst Soon.

New York, Sept. 4-The steamer Ais,
from Port Limon, arrived in port this
morning, On her voyage she stopped at
Kingston, Jamaica, and Port au Prince.
1t was stated by an officer on board that
affairs politically were seemingly quiet
there, but at the same time a revolution
airy bubble was growing, which was liza
bic 10 burst at any time There is much
discomfort at the methods Of President
Hippolyte, and his enemies are continually
plotting against him with the hope
Of placing Mantig at the head
Of the government The latter is at
Kingston, penniless and dependent wholly
upon the bounty of his friends The
Kingston Daily Cleaner of Aug q prints
a speech delivered by Hyppolyte in Port
au Prince on Aug. 5. The article is
headed "Hippolyte TO His Enemies" In
very plain terms the black ruler warns
his foes that any attempts upon his life
or against the government will cost them
their lives az once, and the Cabled dis
patches from Kingston, printed this
morning, stated that five men had been
shot without the formality of a court
martial for melting revolution, show that
Hippolyte was not blut1inC.

DEMPSEY AND MoARTRY.
Puginsts Who win Hammer Each
Other at New Orleans.

New Orleans, La, Sept. 4.-There was
q large crowd of Athletic Club people at
the depot this morning headed by Capt.
Frank Williams, Mike and Joseph Sporl,
representing the auditorium, to welcome
Jack Dempsey, who will have twenty
round scientific glove contest with Aus
trallan Billy Mccarthy, Wednesday night.
Dempsey has accepted the hospitality of
the Young Mems Gymnastic Club, and
will make his headquarters there during
his stay in the city. He is in 1rst-class
condition, weighing las pounds.
Bob FitZsimmons who, by the way, will
be in Dempsey's corner tomorrow night,
predicts he will win.
Mccarthy is pursuing the even tenor of
his way at his training quarters, and is
confident of winning the 81, 900 purse,
owing to his great strength and hard-hit-
ting powers. But whether that will over
come the superior science which will have
plenty of strength behind it in the per-
son of Dempsey is a question that will be
determined on Wednesday evening in the
Audito rum arena. A few bets are said
to have been made as follows: Dempsey
II, Mccarthy 10.
While speaking of Fitzimmons and Cor,
bett, Dempsey readily gave il as his opin,
ion that the former is the only man on
earth that can give Corbett good fight
and the champion will have the work Of

A BIG BARBECUE.
Arrangements for an Audience Of
5000.

/ Waycross, Ga. Sept. 1T has been de
cided by the executive committees of the
Democratic ana the populistic parties
/ that there will be a Joint discussion and
! a barbecue here on Saturday. Sept. %.
! ARRANGEMENTS will be made for the &C
| commodation Of 5000 persons, and the
railroads will give reduced rates. It IS
estimated that 100 carcases will be pro
! vided TOR the barbecue. ard coffee and
other refreshments will be furnished free
in abundance.
The meeting will be presided
over by Hon. Warren Lott. chair
man Of the democratic executive
committee.
The democrats have invited Nessrs
Turner, Atkinson, Clay and Berner TO ad-
dress the meeting. The populisJs have
agreed 70 have speeches from Hines or
Watson and DR.. s. w. johnson
II is scarcely believed BY the democrats
that DR.. Johnson will be here, as he
stated positively 10 several democrats at
Pate Lees mill pond recently. that he
would not meet Mr.. Turner on the stump
in this campaign. The meeting viii be
well advertised throughout South Geor-
gia.
Rev Floyd Snelson. principal of the
colored high school, is outspoken in his
views regarding the third party. He
says that he was not present Saturday
night at the meeting of the colored men
when S. L. Bishop, the leader of the pop
ulistic party, made a speech. The
colored people" he says, will hardly be
led astray by the wiley schemes of
Bishop and the third party" Snelson
is of the opinion that the colored men
should support the state and county dem
ocratic ticket. He has spoken to his
people on different occasions, and has
always warned them against the third
party. Snelson has great influence
with his race here, and he can do a great
deal 10 keep his people from Joining the
populists.

BIG RAILWAY DEALS.
Rumors That the Southern Railway

Rumors That the Southern Railway
Company win Reach Out Further.
Atlanta, Ca, Sept. A great deal of
gossip is going the rounds here in rail-
road circles to the effect that the South
ern will next reach out and take in the
Central. II is said by some Of the wise
aces in the railroad world that the Cen
trial will be part of the Southern in
fact. if not actually in name, within the
next month or two
In the same connection the Southern is
shown up as the one big corporation that
will own or control just as effectually as
if it owned them all, lock, stock and bar
rel every line running out of Atlanta, ex-
cept the Western and Atlantic. Seaboard
Air Line and Atlanta and Florida. Should
the Southern take in the Central this
would, in fact, be the situation, unless the
gigantic com ination should meet the
fate Of its predecessor, the
Richmond Terminal, which at
tempted to consolidate the same
lines now down on the actual and pros
pective map of the Southern. AS sue
cessor 10 the Terminal, the Southern
owns AZ 900 of the 20, 900 shares of the
Central, which it can vote under proper
regulations. This would give the South
ern control Of the Central; the Central in
turn owns half interest in the lease of
the Georgia, while the Georgia owns
half Of the stock of the Western Of Ala
bama, the Western being in control of the
Atlanta ard West Point. Already the
Southern has the Richmond and Danville,
East Tennessee and Georgia aud Georgia
Pacific without dispute. The Central is
the key TO the situation, and as such oil
eyes are turned upon 1t awaiting the
next move of the Southern.

ESTIMATING THE REVENUE.
How Quay Secured the Protection on
Cutlery and Carpets.

Cutlery and Carpets.
Washington, Sept. Am accurate esti-
mate will be made during the next three
months as to the exact excess Of revenue
OF this bill over the amounts necessary to
conduct the government. This will be in
pursuance of Mr.. Cleveland's wishes as
expressed in the Catchings letter regard
ing further tariff legislation. In spite of
opinions expressed by leaders of both
Senate and House, it would hardly seem
possible for congress to enact any
more tariff legislation during this
congress. A few men like Quay
can kill any legislation during
the short session. No tariff legislation
could be embarked upon until after the
Christmas holidays Senator Quay has
one speech which would take more than
two months to deliver. He has threat
ened to spring it on the Senate at any
moment when legislation shall turn
against the sugar trust. IL was this
speech which secured all the duties he
wanted on carpets and cutlery. When
the tariff bill was under consideration a
delegation of carpet manufacturers and
cutters from Pennsylvania waited on
him. He asked them for the lowest
duties they could take. He afterward
made an average of them and found
that on cutlery the duties de-
sired averaged tifty-four and those on
carpets forty per centum. He then wrote
his celebrated message to Senator Jones
of Arkansas which consisted of one line
containing the following significant
words: Cutlery and carpets fifty-four--
forty or fight" He came in every morn
ing with his two months speech under
his arm and finally got what he de-
manded. IL is such speeches as these and
such men as Quay, Aldrich Hill. Brice
and German which make it look ominous
for tarin legislation during the next ses-
