The FACT STILL STANDS.

The CAUCAsIAs's Washln gton
correspon lent in our issue of March
5th SAID
Thy NAV never get the credit.
ut to til Pvpu!is,s belong the cred
it Of passing the s-igniorage bill"
The Samoson Democrat in a vain
fort . reply = tne above says:
Not content With falslfying,
louart.ar ta= ION rrs0ffed 10 st~al-
ng--sh4!ing credit from democrats
.ad 'rylr z to make Popuiists the re-
"lpien's Of stolen hOuors. The ma
| iDritv IF votes cast for the measure
IL the House wa greater than the
who'll number of Populist members
in Congress. The measure wrs in
troduced by Democrat and passed
by Democratic votes, and the only
credit Populist members are entitlf d
to Is that of voting with Democrats
for Democratic measure"
Before the editor of the Democrat
accuses others Of classifying he should
be more careful in his own state
ments. He tries to create the I'M
preston that the Democrats could
and did pass this measure by their
own party votes. Let us see: there
are 225 Democratic congressman.
Only $40 Democrats voted for the
bill. There are 338 votes in the
House. Then how can 40 votes
which is even 2S votes less than "a
quorum for transacting business
pass bill?
Every Peoples party congressman
voted for the bill, and if IA single one
had failed to vote for the bill it
would not have passed. Not only
this but when large number of Dem
ocrats were staying away from the
House to break quorum, every Peo-
pies party congressman was in his
seat helping to make quorum. And
further, when Bland. who had
charge of the bill, became discourage
ed and was about to give up the fight,
1t was Hon. LATE Pence, speaking
for all the Peoples party congress-
men, who came to the front and said
that the fight should not be given
up. He said that the absent Demo
cratic congressman should he brought
into the House (under arrest if nee
and made to vote for or
against the bill, or that the Peoples |
party congressman would block all
other legislation.
These are the plain unvarnished |
facts which the editor of the Demo-
crat must know, for he is not an ig-
norant man, and he certainly should
aot hold them from his readers, even
though they do not suit his purpose.
Next the editor of the Democrat

What cheek it takes for Democra-

THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK.
important Conference Between Ex-Gov-
efhor Jarvis ami Solicitor Woodartl---
Plans to Defeat Ransom.
Pitt Co., March 24th, 1891.
EDITOR THE CAUCAsIAN:-

Pitt Co, March 9th, 1891.
EDITOR THE CAUCAsIAN:-
The Populists are working Xix,
beavers III this county under Tia,
leadership Of Col. Harry Skinner, A
\. Forbes, and others, but perhap,
the best quiet, practicable, effective
work is being done by Clerk f. A.
Move. The meeting here on the
3lst of March is looked forward t,
with considerable interest. The Dem
ocrats are bodily demoralized, and
the Republicans stand waiting for
something to turn up.
That close mouthed gentleman,
ex-Gov. Jarvis, in this county has
had little to say on any public ques-
ton, bnt what little he does let slim
it is perfectly evident he is counting
largely on the colored gentlemen 5

whether by counting or voting, what
is the difference?
Solicitor Woodland dropped in dur
ing court week here, purely accident
al you know, but somehow it has
leaked out that among other little
conferences, he had one with Jarvis
and good long one. and somehow
the substance of that con ference was
how to dowl Ransom for the Senate.
Woodland is a pretty fair schemer, and
he has debt to pay Mr.. Ransom of
long standing, since 1885, when he
would not appoint Davis to the post
office at Wilson, hence fallow feeling
which makes Jarvis aud Wooda~d
wondrous kind to each other: and
this is the plan with which to down
Ransom:
Make war on Cleveland and the
administration in this State; declare
for free silver in State politics: pack
all the county and State conventions
with free silver Democrats. Nomi-
nate free silver Democrats for the
Legislature, invite the Populists back
under this free silver banner, capture
the State again, and have the Legisla-
ture turn Ransom out for his anfi-sil-
yer view and vote on the Sherman bill.

nothing. In other words the same

No church or political party, when
once corrupt, has ever reformed. In
every case the people have never
gotten reform until they left the cor
rupt old machine and marched out
with their lifelong principles into a
new organization. History is now
repeating itself.

THREE MORE NEW REFORM PAPERS

Since our last issue three more
new North Carolina Peoples party
papers have made their appearance.
GRANVILLE COUNTY REFoRMER
This Is neat six column paper
published at Oxford, n. g., by the
j. W. Brown Pub. Go. The first
issue is dated March 18th, 1894.
Granville needs a good local paper.
and we trust that this one will fill
the bill. The first issue is a splen-
did paper.
THE PEOPLES PAPER:-This is q
SIX column paper published at Char
lotte, n. c. Mr.. j. Z. Green is edi-
tor and J. P. Sossaman local editor.
1t is a live hustling paper. Mr..
Green is talented and enterprising
young man. He is the editor of two
other papers, ''Our Home" Beaver
Dam, n. c., and the "Populist,"
Lumberton, N. G. The editorial de-
partment of all these three papers is
the same, with local page for the
respective localities. Mr.. Green's
enterprise illustrates what can be
done even with small capital. We
wish there were hundreds of such
men III the State. There should be
good local Peoples party paper in
every county i'll North Carolina,
State papers like THE CAUCASIAN
are needed, but they can't do the
local work for each section. Lett |
Reformers in every county make an |
effort to start a local paper inside Of
the next three months.
The ToILER's FR1END:-Tbis Is
a new Peoples party paper just start
ed at Elijay, Macon county. Mr.. r
A. Henry is editor. In his salutato-

ANNUAL REPORT OF STATE LABOR
COMM SSIONER.

NS"mf SIONeH.
THE CAUCASIAN acknowledges re
ceipt of annual report of B. r. Lacy
State Commissioner of Cabor Stats
ties, for 1898. From the examina,
ton that we have had time to give
the report, it appears that the Com
missioner is doing his best to serve
the State in that department under
the circumstances. He says that the
appropriation is too small to enable
him to visit the different sections of
the State to gather the necessary in
formation. He says that only 80
per cent. of the persons questioned
answered, and then asks the uues-
ton: us it likely that a man will
answer who is not treating his fell
low man as he should T.
He says that the farmers answered
more promptly than any other class.
He says that though farm wages are
very low, yet the farm laborer is now
getting all that it is possible to paw
him at the present prices of crops.
and Is receiving no less than he did
when cotton was selling at nine cents
a pound.

WATER AND CASH.
Finance Board Way Draft New Spec
tficautons-Bonds to BE Refunded.

The Board of Finance and Corporation
Counsel Blair held a two hours confer
ence last evening behind closed doors.
They discussed the standard of purity"
with reference to a contract for a new
water supply. Mr.. H~ardenbergh is of
the opinion hat the Michigan standard
allows of too much solid matter. 1t is
said that the eonferrees determined that
no further action should be taken until
the conclusion of the investigation by
the Grand Jury, now in progress.
The names of several hydraulic engin-
GERS and chemists were also discussed,
and the board took steps towards formu-
lating new specifications of it's own, to
be submitted to the Street and Water
Board for adoption as a condition of FL
nance Boar concurrence in the resolu-
ton to advertise. 1t was rumored that
these specifications would reduce the
guarantee check to $25, 900.
When the Finance Commissioners met
in open meeting not a word about a new
water supply was said. On January l.
1885, $179,000 of 7 per cent. water bonds,
issued in March, 1852, fall due. 1t was
decided to renew them by the issue of
AZ per cents, to bear date of January 2,
1885, and to mature in 1925. TO redeem
them a sinking fund is to be created,
into which So, 600 will be paid yearly.
Bids for the bonds in whole or in part
will be received by the Finance Board
at one o'clock on the afternoon of Deem
Der 6. The renewal of the 7 per cents. at
Az save the city $4,475 interest annually.
