AND WHAT WILL THAI BETOKEN ?

II seems very plain that Governor Nc
Kinley proposes to make a strong appeal
TO the South in behalf of his candidacy
for the Presidency in 1896 upon the
ground that the National Republican
party has nothing to do with the terms
upon which the whites and the negroes
1--we together in the Southern States. and
that his element. certainly in that party,
proposes 10 leave tue people of South
Carolina Florida and Virginia to deal
with the question Just as the people OF
Ohio are left TO deal with it. II the en-
tire North had taken that position as
soon as the war was over, We should
have been spared the honors Of the recon-
struetion epoch. and all the estrangement
between the two sections that that period
produced, and the negro's condition, So
cially, materially and politically, would
be far better now than II is. Mckinley
may possibly drive away from himself
the support of the negroes in the nomi-
mating convention by this course, bat he
will undoubtedly assuage very powerfully
the hostile feelings OF the white people
OF the South towards himself and those
OF his fellow Republicans who have here
tofore been supporters OF force bills and
that line OF policy.
We cannot speak by the record OF Nc
Kinley's Views upon silver. We had an
impression that he had ben coquetting, to
say the least. with the free silver idea.
but We are not able TO put our finger
upon any act OF his that commits him
definitely to the proposition. Whatever nc
may have thought or done In the past,
though. in connection with silver, there
il certainly now being made positive
move 10 have it known that he will not
allow his name TO be connected IN 1896
with any free silver proposition. One of
his suite definitely announced this last

to be made by authority. that Governor
Mckinley would not permit ms name W
,,e associated with free silver In 1885, out
that he should plant himself hrmiy ana
souarely upon the last National Repuop-
can platform in regard to this matter
Now the thing which we wish 10 prihg
% tho attention Of our fellow-Democrats
~ the South in this connection is this: II
Mckinley is the nominee of the Repuoii-
can marty in 1896 upon platform that
nroclaims non-interference in the South,
sound money, and protective tarin' ana
the Democratic candidate stands on
platform which IS. like the Wilson biii'
neither protection nor free trade that
&c for an unequal income tax and for
free silver. how will the southern states
vote?
The possibilities that these announce
ments regarding Governor Mckinley s
views rave opened to view, may very well
engage the most serious attention OF
Democratic leaders.

Money at Benrico Primary Polls.

Editor of The Times:
Sir.-Perhaps the most noticeable fea-
ture of the primary election in Henrico
county Thursday was the open and I'M
stinted use of money by friends OF the
different candidates. The purchase OF
votes took place at most of the precincts.
or at least it was clearly understood
among the bystanders that SUCH was
the case. but at Hungary precinct was
the most startling instance. AT TINS pre-
cinct votes were purchased with the most
utter and open disregard OF appearances
Voters were piled with offers from
friends of opposing candidates. and, when
finally won by the largest offer of ready
cash. were marched 10 the polls, their
tickets handed them, and their votes cast
without even an examination of their bal
lots One block of four was publicly pro
claimed 10 have been bought Tor w, ana
this without one word of denial from the
voters themselves, who were in easy
hearing of all comments upon the pur-
chase One man, who, It was pHDIlcIy
announced had been holding MS vote at
S25. rapidly approached the precinct ana
when asked by dozen inqulrers IN loui
tones how much he was TO get Tor MS
vote replied, with a laugh. IL was none
OF their business He was seized upon
bv a canvasser, marched straight 10 the
nolling window his ticket was handed
him. and, without looking at 1t, he passed
il to the judge. AS soon as the ballot
was received, he turned on his heel ana
quickly Ietraced his steps down the road,
replying TO a number OF loud inquiries as
to the price he received. that they
needn't bother about him. he knew his
business. Bystanders and officers OF cleo
ton alike expressed their disgust and
condemnation of this shockingly democrat
lied state Of affairs, and it was openly
proposed to employ an auctioneer to sell
a number OF tardy voters TO the highest
bfdder DEMOCRAT.

GIVE us rnrEpOM IN CURRENCY.

Mr.. John. De Witt Warner OF Ne"
York. has issued a pamphlet WHICH
summarizes the conditions preceding anu
ac.ompanying the financial crisis OF 1876
and portraying the condition OF currency
famine that arose and Epread all over the
nation. which. he thinks, is the speclal
feature of this panic, Distinguishing u
from The others that had preceded IT,
He accompanies it with mass OF de-
tail as to emergency currency accom-
panied by some nifty fac-siniles of paper
substitutes for money. that were adopted
in different localities whilst the famine
lasted
1t is safe to say that few have appre-
ciated the extent TO which the substitutes
for currency were resorted 10 in many
parts of the country and some OF them
possibly in defiance of the law. AS the
pressure increased, with no assistance
whatever from the llw-discouraged, GER
tainly by it-local currency sprang up 20
meet local needs which was affovded
where there must have been disaster
otherwise. and all of it retire. Ike sora
before frost as soon as the necessity for
AZ had passed away. There is a lesson of
immense Importance in hese facts If the
people ~S ssula only tal.esft to heart. They
prove, in the first place, that no national
currency like ours, fixed in quantity and
only to be increased under special and
difficult conditions, can meet the demands
OF a country where a condition of panic
arises in the public mind
They prove, in the second place, that
nothing can save the people from disaster
when those occasions arise. but perfect
freedom TO every man TO make use of-his
credit as freely as he is able to pledge
it. and they prove in the third place that
even II there be issued more of this
local currency under extreme conditions
like those Of 1895, than the locality wants
in P normal state Of affairs, the excess
OF II will be taken in and retired as soon
as the urgency of the situation has pass
cd by.
The natural condition of affairs is for
every man to have the right to issue his
paper promises TO pay money when and
where he pleases The modern idea-the
post war idea-concedes that right to the
individual citizen, but declares that when
a half dozen or more citizens combine
together and propose 10 do business an
Ger a charter. the right that each one
had to put out his promissory notes shall
be denied 70 the aggregate of them
when acting together The thing is total
ly illogical and utterly subversive of that
freedom of business which is absolutely
essential TO a prosperity that will take
in air the members of society and per-
init OF an equal participation in it by
all.

WORK OF THE DOUGLASS LECIS-
LA1URE.

Our Raleigh dispatches have already
told of the discovery of the assignment
law, passed by the Fusionist Legislature
of North Carolina. This is probably one
of the most stupid propositions ever
enacted into a law. The effect of this
measure is 10 make void all mortgages
and deeds of trust given to protect cred
itors. 1t places the original creditors on
the same footing with subsequent ones
If man lends another a sum Of money
on a mortgage on his home, under this
law he has no more security than an
unsecured creditor.
The effect of this legislation must be
far-reaching, and unless declared invalid
by the courts. viii certainly be very
hurtful to the business interests of North
Carolina. This foolish Law is only one
of the many blghting effects OF the
Fusion Legislature with which our sister
State has been so screly afflicted.

The role of big brother" or bully, whlch
our jngoes wish this Government TO as

doctrine. nor is IL one that the Latin-
American republics have asked US 10 as
sumo. 1t is convenient, OF course, Tor
San Domingo TO ask us to protect her
from the consequences of her outrageous
treatment of French citizens and their
property, but that is no reason why we
should interfere to prevent France from
exacting reparation. When last month
France. with warships and threats oil
violence, forced San Domingo TO pay
LIS. 600 francs of indemnity and arbitrate
claims of French citizens, we wisely de-
cided that II was not our affair. The
Monroe doctrine. in its EXTREMIST devel-
opment does not require us TO go 70
war with every power that demands re-
peration for alleged wrongs from the
States OF Latin America. If 1t did. our
sister republics south of us would be al
ways ready to presume upon our gal
lantry, and we should want an army
and navy ten times as large as we now
have. with taxes to match, to support oul
pretensions.
