1t is well known that Franklin
was great philanthropist, but The
CAUCASIAN thinks that that foresee-
ing patriot had another object in
view when he made the modest be-
quest Of $1,000 on the conditions
that it should draw interest forever.
But whether he intended it so or not,
it is striking object lesson on the
eating and destructive power of in
terest. Just think of it, s., 900 at
interest since the death of Benjamin
Franklin amounts to $4,000. In
1894, it will amount to millions on
top of millions.
This teaches, if you are paving in
terest, stop it as soon as possible; if
your government is paying interest
and taxing you to raise the money,
send men to congress who will stop
the fool and ruinous business at once.
Think of how Franklin's 5000 has
grown, and then think of how the
governments debt-the gold-interest
bearing bonds, (Which the Democra-
tic party is increasingly are growing.
One hundred years from to-day all
the property of North Carolina will
not pay the interest. Then the money
devils will own everything and the
people nothing. Elect a Peoples
party congress and save the nation
from the thieves that are about to
swallow it.

GREAT STATESMAN.

During Cleveland's former admin
istration there was an immense sur
plus in the Treasury, and Cleveland
gave about SOS, 100000 of it in pre-
miums to the bondkoIders for the
precious privilege of paying bonds
not due. Now there is a deficit of
money, and he gives them more
bonds, which in turn may produce
more far premiums.

STRENGTH AND WEAKNESS,

Mr.. Geo. F. Washburn. of the Ma
tional Ex. Com. of the Peoples party
in recent letter, says:
What shall We do to be saved from
the mortgage fend at home and the
Shylocks abroad: We outnumber
them hundred to one, but none the
less We are their bond slaves and
cringe like whipped hounds under
the scorpion lash of their money
panics. when we ought to rise and
brush them like cobwebs from our
path.
"Nhat is the secret of their power
and our weakness: Simply this: they
act in harmony and never for one in
slant forget their own devilish inter-
ests. We are spasmodic in our efforts
and act in dismembered, disiointed
manner, when every individual effort
should be conserved and directed to
form a part of the aggregate, the
universal struggle for industrial
emancipation. Do you see the diff
ference ?
There is genius, intelligence, en-
thusiasm enough latent in the hearts
and brsins Of our people were it
awakened, organized and focused on
one definite purpose, to carry Us on
with irresistible might to magnifc-
ent victory"
This is wise, sound and we'll said.
Let the members Of the Peoples par
ty at once organize in every township
and neighborhood. Don't allow anv
side Issues TO arise in this fight.
Center every energy and vote on more
money, home rule and al honest
election. When this is won We can
take up other issues.

THE DANGER OF ovseconFlosscE

THE DANGER OF OVERCOME iOsscE.
The letters that we are receiving
daily from every quarter Of the State
are all hopeful. They all speak of
the bright outlook for the Refors'
cause. But there is a spirit of over
confidence shown in most Of thes.
letters that We regret. OSer-conf
dence has lost many battle. II
man who thinks that the Democrat
machine il dead, will soon learn
the contrary to his sorrow. 1t
true that the record Of the Democra
tic party is enough to damn and de
feat it. But they can not be defeat
ed without we have organization,
wise management aud hard fighting
in every neighborhood in the State.
The Democrats are in power, they
have the machinery, they have the
daily press, they can command a
large campaign fund-in short they
have everything but the votes, and
they will get those if We will let
them. 1t is true the Democratic
leaders are uneasy, but it is also
true that there is nothing harder to
beat than a scared Democrat. When
they get scared they get desperate.
They work and they work like Tio-
jams. They don't depend upon steal
ing alone TO carry an election. They
try to carry every election By work.
Everybody in touch with the ma
chine works. They work day and
night. Where work fails then they
resort to stealing when they dare to.
But stealing can't be done this year
as it was last. The people will not
tolerate it and the machine knows it.
Therefore they will work harder
than ever to get the votes. They
will persuade, they will beg, they will
intimidate, they will try to buy with
money. But that is neither here nor
there. If we will do our duty, if We
will work as hard as they do, we will
beat them. The record Of the De
mocratic party does not mean that
they will be beaten. 1t simply gives
us an opportunity. 1t gives the peo-
pie an opportunity to crush the ma
chine. Will We use the opportuni-
ty:: That is the question. Let ev-
cry Reformer buckle on his armour
and commence the fight. We can
win if we will.

KEEP DOWN SIDE ISSUES.

We notice tendency in certain
quarters to raise side issues in the
coming campaign. This should be
guarded against. The next cam
paign should be focused on one OF
two leading issues. 1t would be a
shrewd game for the enemies of re-
form to play if they could get us to
take up issues that they have no
record on. If We voluntarily take
up such issues ourselves it would be
just as bad a mistake as we were
fooled into doing SO. There are
many meritous reforms that it is
not wise to take up this year.

ne program OF the state Demo
cratic machine is now clearly given
out They say that if they attempt
to carry Cleveland and the Democra-
tic administration in next campaign
the party will be defeated. This is
an admission that they would carry
Cleveland if il was not for the know II
edge that has gotten 70 the people.
If there were no Peoples party pa
pers in the State the machine would
no doubt endorse Cleveland and Ram
som. But the program now is to
neither endorse nor condemn the
National administration at the State
convention. This will be coward
~ lodging position and North Caro-
linians will not endorse it. If Cleve-

dorse and stand by him, if he is

When the Fayetteville Light Infant

the whole body of State troops and
officers, it withdrew from the organ
ization. This was the only consist
ant thing to do.
Now if the Democratic machine
of North Carolina is honest, if it is
not trying to fool the people, let it
boldly withdraw from the National
organization and declare that it will
no longer affiliate with it. But if
instead of doing this, it lodges and
lodges, tries to throw national issues
into the back ground and run a
State ticket just for this time, then
the voter may know that this is a
"device" Gas Capt. Ashe calls it,
There are fifty thousand men who
voted the Democratic ticket in 1892,
after much hesitation. They
once made many fair promises and
pledges. The State machine assured
then that the National Democratic
party was with the people and that
Grover Cleveland was their friend.
These men have been cruelty de-
ceived. The State machine realizes
this and fears that they will repudi-
ate the party. Hence the "device"
of a State campaign. Now let US
suppose that these fifty thousand vo-
tiers should walk into the trap set by
the State machine. Let us see what
they will do. In 1896 this State
machine will send delegates to Ma
tional Democratic convention, which
will be controlled by the same powers
that controlled the last. But the
machine will declare that they have
put up a man that is all right this
time. and urge the people again to
support it. Will you vote that ticket
again ? No, for burnt child breads

" GOV CARR HAS SUNK HIS INDIVIDUAL.
ITYiNTO GROVER TIE GREAT

GOV CARR HAS SUNK HIS INDIVIDUAL.
ITYNTO GROVER The GREAT"
The Richmond Star in an editorial
of April 18th, discussing who would
succeed the late Senator Vance said a:
There is unaasiness manifested in
certain quarters that Governor Carr
will appoint Populist 10 succeed the
late Senator Vance. Why should
Carr do sucn a thing any more than
did Governor Northen in selecting a
successor to Colqultt? Both men
are Democrats. 1t is true they were
once ardent Farmers Alliancemen ::
indeed, there was time when Billy
Northen was so aati-plutocratiC that
he actually snubbed Jay Gould. But
he soon outgrew his hostility to
'plutes, and with Carr, having work
ed the non-partisan scheme for all it
was worth, sunk his individuality in
Grover Cleveland"
The above is Democratic authority
and shows that THE CAUCASIAN is
right when it charges that Gov. Carr
has deserted his Alliance principles
and surrendered completely to the
machine. When he appointed Jar
Wis, the last doubt was removed. Jar
Wis is no better than Ransom. They
are two of kind. The only differ
ence is each one wants the same Of

The CAUCASIAN JUSTIFIED.

The CAUCASIAN has always ad
vocated pure Democracy. We warn
ed the people that the tendency of
the leaders Of the Democratic party
was away from Democracy towards
the dangerous evils of monopoly.
We served notice on the machine,
that if it did not rctrace its steps,
that if it tried further to betray
Democracy and fool the people, that
we would refuse to follow. We gave
notice that We would not stand by
and keep silent while the unholy
trade was made. We told the peo-
pie that We would give them warn
ing.
When the machine backed By the
gold-bugs and monopolists foistered
Cleveland on the people IN the name
of Democracy, We refused to follow.
THE CAUCASIAN God true to it,
Democracy and the people; the time
had come when We promised to give
the people warning. Then we de
nounced the fraud, we told the PEG
pie that the principles Of good gov
eminent had been sacrificed, and
that they were betrayed in the name
of DemOcray.
For thus telling the truth, defend
ing Democratic principles, and stand
ing by the people, THE CAUCASIAN
was denounced and howled at by all
the machine papers n the State.
The arch traitors Of Democracy
sought to hide their betrayal Of the
people by crying turn coat" and
traitor" at THE CAUCASIAN. But
The CAUCASIAN stood true to its
convictions regardless Of the villain
Gus calumny.
Several months ago when the pre-
dictions of The CAUCASIAN were
being verified by the cruel realities
of Democratic hypocracy, THE eau
CA--AN made another prediction.
We said that the machine fearing
that the people would realize the
truth and therefore entirely desert
them, would soon change their front.
We said that they would denounce
Cleveland to try to fool the people
again. We warned the people that
they would do this because the next
was not Presidential election and
they would be willing to do anything
to carry the next legislature. This
prediction is also coming true. The
machine papers that were only few
months ago bowling for uncondition-
al repeal of silver, or anything else
that the great Grover, the ponderous
gold-bug wants, are now changing
their tune.
1t is just as We predicted, the
machine papers See that the people
will not follow any further the gold
bugs, ever though they carry the
Democratic flag. But the people
know that this change of tune is
not from any change of heart, but
the hedging and duplicity of traitors
and unpriEcipled politicians. They
want to save the State machine which
they will use again in 1896 to help
elect another gold-bug President. If
the Peoples party were not so strong
in North Carolina, this change of
tune would never have occurred.
They are driven to this device be-
cause The CAUCASIAN and other re-
form papers have put the truth be-
fore the people; and the same power
that has driven them to this ''device"
will expose it so that the people will
not be fooled by it. The CAUCA-
SIAN is being justified, but let the
people watch the traitors.
