their mints to the free coinage of sill

the depression and stagnation of

RALEIGH, n c.. March 22.- [Spe-

son. A convention is called to meet
in Asheville May 10. The conference
agreed that the best policy for the
Republican party in State matters
would be coalition with the Populists
on a platform advocating the repeal
OF the county government system
and the election law. 1t was agreed
that on these lines the Republicans
and Populists could unite in electing
a State ticket and members of the
Legislature and in defeating Senator

There is no doubt that for years to

we must not OvereStimate this fac

The maximum production of Wit
watersrand will probably be reached
within this century. In MaShOna-
land there are gold-felds, but they
have been entirely exhausted 1t is
presumed this was the land of Ophir
of the Bible. The future gold pro-
ductiOn depends upon our extended
geographical knowledge. In the old
countries there is no more gold to be
had. with all our improved ma
chinery and knowledge" says Prof.
Suess, ''the production of gold to-day
has not yet reached the total of forty
years ago. But with this you have
pronounced sentence of death on the
gold standard. The requirements of
industry are getting greater every
year; the production remains, at best,
stable This act cannot be denied
by all the economists in the world.
From it l conclude, with the GER
tainty of scientific deduction, that
the gold standard cannot last, and
that we must revert to silver. There

1t must not be forgotten that on
the question of gold production Prof.
Suess speaks with more authority
than any other living geologist.-

The Financial News says: "Guate-

of them is question of time. The

In the meantime our shallow, Shy
lock-securing American press are put

Philadelphia Times: 1.-THE price of
silver has continued to fall and has
now reached the lowest point on re-
cord, so that the actual bullion value
of silver dollar is now but little
more than 48 cents. Under these
conditions even Mr.. Bland cannot
hope to have his silver dollar regard
ed as standard money"
Philadelphia Press: 1.-THE silver
question ought to be given a rest.
The only thing certain about silver
at the present time is that it has not
risen in public esteem, but continues
to fall"
Our newspapers are reducing the
mental standard of Americans below
the level of the rest of the world.

"A committee had been appointed
to make recommendation as to the
mode Of carrying on the free-SilyeI
campaign in the congressional dis
trictS. This was the important ques.
ton that had brought the conference
together. There were some in con
vention that would have been glad
to have left the doors open so that
the old parties, under a pretended
devotion to free-silver, after killing
it, could get back into congress. But
the committee were determined this
should not be done, and it reported
through Mr.. Donnelly, the following
resolutions, which after full debate
were adopted with only one dissent
ing vote:
Whereas, The terrible condition
which now exists in our country is
due to the crime of characterization
of silver, which has increased the
purchasing power of gold, decreased
the value of all the commodities,
closed our mines, workshops and fac
tories and bankrupted our business
men: and,
Whereas, ThreefOurthS of the peo-
pie Of the country are in favor of the
full reconciliation of silver, and OBJ
posed to the present single gold
standard, and,
Whereas, Silver was stricken down
by fraud through the gold conspiracy
in the two old political parties, not
outstanding the direct pledges of
both their national platforms to the
contrary, therefore,
Resolved, That we recommend that
the nominations for congress in the
several districts shall be made by the
friends of free silver, of men who are
unequivOcally in favor of the unre-
stricted coinage of gold and silver on
the basis of 10 to !: and whose past
acts are an earnest of future good
faith, and who will stand on the re-
solutions adopted by this convention:
and that the said nominations be
made either by political organizations
which are known positively to favor
the free coinage of silver, or by indie
pendent aSSemblageS of men of all
parties, the candidates being pledged
If elected, in case the election OF
president is thrown into the house OF
repreSe natives to vote for such can
dldateS as are known to be earnestly
in favor of the free coinage of silver
Resolved, That we call upon men
of all parties who believe in the free
coinage of silver, to bury all past diff
ferenceS and unite in conventions
and at the ballot box to rescue their
country from the foreign and dOmeS.
tic enemies who have brought, Ou1
industries to ruin, and who, if un.
checked. will destroy the republic
and the liberties of mankind.
The meaning of those resolutions
is that where the Peoples party con.
