0srass-Reissr skssssS Asssssssae-
Special TO the Charlotte Observer
CHAPEL HILL, Oct. lA.-University
Day was celebrated in dne style The
annual Grafton Was delivered by Jo-
sephus Daniels, ESQ.,, who spoke on
Three Dynasties Of Intellect or the
Pulpit, the Bar, the Press.- He showed
how the clergy ruled the world from
the establishment Of Christianity To
the Protestant Reformation. With the
loss of wealth and political power the
influence Of the clergy declined and the
sceptre passed to the lawyers, who had
stood up for civil liberty and freedom
of exchange of land against the despot-
ism ard avarice Of the clergy. The
lawyers, in turn, slaves to precedent,
and bound by conservatism, lost the
sceptre because they ceased to lead the
people in great moral reforms. tniver-
sal education has given the sceptre Of
power to the press, and the editors now
rule the world by guiding and direct
ing public interest, by informing the
public mind and by fearlessly advocat-
ing great moral, social, industrial and
political reforms. Ii was . very thought
full address and WAS heard with very
great pleasure by very large audience.

man was conducted in the gymnasium,
20 couples being present, and masked

mortal Hall till midnight.

WHICH Is THE LEAST REsPEcrABLEe

WHICH is THE LEAST RESPECTABLE?
The Reform Club ''broadsides'' advocate
financial policy that is rulnous to the devel-
opment Of the South and West. They are
free to the editors, but like nearly al other
free things they are paid for by those who
will be financially benefited. No self-re-
specting journal ought to use patent gold
bug ite7ature.-Raleigh News and Observer.
The people have very, littierespect
for an editor of a paper who can be
prostituted into using the goldbug
plate matter or "broadsides" sent free
by the William Street New York Re-
form Club. But they will have less
respect for an editor who now claims
to be friend to the people and free
silver but will flop to the goldbues
in the next campaign, The News

that it would support q goIdbug for
President in 1896.

the speakers on the stump have some

NOW, WILL 1HEY?

Hon. Chauncey F. Black, Presi-
dent of the National Association of
Democratic Clubs says that the sill
yer Democrats voted for q goldbug
in 1892 and that they will stand by
the machine and vote for another
goldbug in 1896.
Mr.. Black is mistaken. It is true
that 1892 the Peoples party was
warning the people of the dangerous
goldbug program, but at that time
the masses of the people were not
aroused to the danger. To-day they
are aroused, for they not only see
the danger, but feel some of the
evil effects of Democratic treachery.
No, Mr.. Black. the hirellng poll
ticians and the corrupt goldbug
press will no doubt force tho nomi-
nation of goldbug by the next Ma
tional Democratic convention, but
they cannot force the voters to rat
ify such servility to England.
Mr.. Black, you are mistaken in the
manhood of the voters, and in the
spirit of American freemen. the Raj
eigh News and Observer to the con-
trary Notwithstanding.
ASAMPLE OF THEIR LYING.
Very recently the hirellng gold
bug press sent kilograms all over
the country to the effect that the
Maryland Popullst State convention
had voted down a resolution favor
ing the free coinage of silver at the
ratio of 16 to l. It was a lying re-
port and was Matched out to bolster
up the plutocratic and monopoly cry
that the "silver craze is dying out .
Only last week, when the National
Farmers Congress was in session in
Atlanta, another report was sent out
that the farmers had chit silve,
hard" &c. and that they had voted
down resolutions favoring free silve,
coinage. This was another lie
Read the resolutions elsewhere and
see if you don't think so. The plu.
tocrats and goldbugs control the tel.
egraph system and most of the large
daily papers. They send out these
reports for the purpose of creating q
false impression, and as a rule they
do not correct them. The people
will find out tho truth, however
Yes, they will. For there are some
papers that the plutocrats do not
own and cannot buy, and through
these papers the people will get q,
the truth.

THE FEARFUL POWER OF BANKS AND
BONDS.

Last week we made some refer
ence to the nature and character OF
government treasury notes and gov
eminent bonds. We also stated that
q present scheme of the goldbugs
was to destroy and do away with all
treasury notes now outstanding, and
to substitute for them fUe hundred
millions of dollars in bonds. The ques-
ton comes up as to why this partic-
ular scheme should be proposed and
advocated by the bankers, goldbugs
and the like. This is a matter that
should be thoroughly understood,
and while we may state facts that
are known to many people, it may
be we'll enough to have a plain, sim
pie talk about it.
The purpose of this scheme is to
continue the present national bank
ing system and to put the national f.
nances of this country absolutely un-
der the control of the bankers. This q
matter which the general public is
not acquainted with and hence the
necessity for plain statement.
The national banking system is
based on government bonds, and the
working of that system is as follows:
A man or a set of men who have got
ten hold of some money get together.
They find they can raise one hun
dred thousand dollars or enough
money to buy one hundred thousand
dollars worth Of government bonds.
Tuey decide to 20 into the banking
business. They take their money
and buy one hundred thousand dol
lars worth of bonds which bear four
per cent, interest. The interest
amounts to four thousand dollars q
year.
Now, they take these bonds and
deposit them with the government,
but they continue to draw that four
thousand dollars interest just as
though the bonds were locked up in
their own safes. After they deposit
the bonds with the government, the
government says: "You may now 60
into the banking business. You may
issue bank notes to the amount of
ninety thousand dollars and we will
hold your bonds as security for those
notes and thus make them good
money. You may lend out those
bank notes at any rate of interest
you can get, and in the meantime
we will continue to pay you your
four thousand dollars interest every
year on the bonds you have depos-
tied.
We will charge you nine hundred
dollars year for the use of our
name in making your bank notes
good"
Now, let's see how this plan works
out. To begin with the government
pays these bankers four thousand
dollars:a year interest on their. bonds.
: Then the bankers issue ninety thou
sand dollars OF bank notes (the kind
of money which is now in circula-
tion) and they lend out this ninety
thousand dollars at, say, eight per
cent. At this rate of interest the
ninety thousand dollars would bring
in seven thousand and two hundred
dollars . year. Now add this to
the four thousand dollars interest
ON the bonds and it will be seen that
the bankers get eleven thousand and
two hundred dollars interest every
year ON their original one hundred
thousand dollars worth of bonds.
Take from this the nine hundred
dollars charged by the government
for the use Of the ninety thousand
dollars in bank notes, and you will
sec that the net amount Of interest
which the bankers get on their one

Money can be made 90 plentiful that

is, and how important il il to have just

CAN WE BE STILL WHILE THE
ENEMY SOWS TARES?

Again we wish to tell the people
who want and demand a change in
public policies that they must not re-
main inactive. Wanting and de-
manding thing will not get it. It
must be worked for.
The goldbugs want and demand
the establishment of gold standa, d
and further issue of bonds. But
they are not stopping at the demand.
They are working. Much of the
work is being done through the

New York. That club is made up
largely Of big Democrats. 1t fur
nishes ready printed matter to papers
free of charge, and will print papers

nothing less than buying up the

II il very noticeable and significant
that leading goldbug politicians and

with great deal Of positivensss and
confidence that there 10 now no
longer any danger Of the free coin
age Of silver. What does this meant
They say this in spite Of the fact
the people Of all parties are now
more aroused on this question than
they have ever been before
Does it mean that they have quiet
ly gotten control Of enough nevspa-
pers and leading men Of the two old
parties to make them absolutely GER
tain that they can absolutely con-
troll the machinery Of both parties
under all circumstancesf
1t seems to us plain that they have
done this and hence their confidence.
They think that these politicians and
newspapers can keep the people in
the old parties and that if they do,
the gold standard is sure to win.
Let the people take note that these
politicians and newspapers who Are
clamoring to be for free silver, YET
who will support any man for Presi
dent that the gold trust may name
for each of the old parties, are tn.
most valuable agents and support
ers of the gold trust. These go
