The marvel is that the United
States has not long ago seized the
opportunity, and but for the belief
that the way of England is neces-
sarlly the way to commercial success
and prosperity, undoubtedly it would
have done so long ago. Now Ameri-
cans are awakening to the fact tnat
so long as
THEY NARROW THEIR AMBITION
to becoming larger England,
they cannot beat US. 1t has been a
piece of luck for us that it has never
before occurred to the Americans to
scoop us out of the worlds markets
by going on a silver basis, and it
might serve US right, if, irritated
by the contemptuous apathy of our
government to the gravity of the sill
yer problem, the Americans retaiiate
by freezing out gold 1t could easily
be done"

JUDGE eoFF WAS WRONG.
His 0seisiss IN the sessh Csvsiisa Cs.s
0vsrruied by the Court OF Appeals.


0vsrruisd by the Court OF Apr~sis-
a South Carolina matter which
has given considerable trouble has
been settled. The laws governing reg
istration contained provisions which
some parties claimed would disfrAn-
chise many voters. lex Senator NJ. &.
Butler. Of that State was elected TO
the United States Senate under those
laws. Then came q shaking up of
things, and this same gentleman was
defeated He immediately raised a
cry Of fraud. and through his efforts
. case was brought before the Cireui,
court to test the ''consti;uiionalityn
Of the laws. The case was heard by
Judge Goff, who granted an injunc-
ton which declared that the regis
tration laws should not be in force
aud should not govern elections in
that State. This decision created a
terrific commotion in South Carolina
on account Of its bulldozing and au-
tocratic nature. An appeal was
taken to the United States Circuit
court of Appeals at Richmond. In
this court the case was heard by
Chief Justice Fuller and Judges Sey-
mour and Hughes. This court de-
cided that Judge Goff was in error
1t declared that the courts had no
right to interfere with the regula
tions Of the legislature in a general
way. 1t held that court might
pass upon the constitutionaliiy of
laws, but could do SO only as an in
cident to the protection of private
rights; and that it could not under
take to regulate question of public
policy when power was given 10 the
legislature to regulate that question.
In substance, the decision is that the
people elect the legislature; the leg
islature makes the laws governing
public policy; and when the people
do not like such laws they have the
right and power to elect another leg
islature which can correct what is
not in accordance with the public
demand. In giving his opinion
Judge Hughes said:
II can imagine nothing more pernicious
than direct participation by the Judiciary
by judicial action in the politics of the peo-
pie. The bill asked practically that the pro-
cess of registration under the laws of the
State should be suspended in an entire
county during the pleasure of the court
and that all the citizens of 4 county. not
then registered as voters, should be denied
It seems to me that the mere statement of
this view of the case shows that the iniunc-
ton was improvidently granted.
II think the bill should be dismissed"

as "a Fact-But it May be SO.
Equity, vigorous Populist paper
of California, prints the following:
1--WE have forbOrne to note the fact
heretofore, because it is difficult to
speak of it without too fierce display
OF indignation. But the evidence is
accumulating until it cannot be ignOr-
ed, and must be dealt with as prOba-
bility, that the reform press is to be
muZzled in the next campaign. The
next Congress will undoubtedly deal
with measures calculated to exclude
POpulist and kindred publications
from the mails. If such a bill is passed,
Cleveland will sign it. 1t therefore
stands political refOrmers in hand to
be prepared for this contingency, and
to take every advantage OF the interval
yet remaining to circulate reform lit
erature; and also take the present OPP
portunity to prepare for the crisis that
such an act of despOtism will lmmedl-
ately provoke.
awe believe that this or some kindred
act of hostility will be committed by
the traitors now in possession of the
government. 1t looks as If the god
standard men, doubtful of a victory at
the polls, but strong in the confidence
of superior organization; the present
possession of all the means of victory,
| including the army, the navy and the
money; and especially strong in their
usurped possession of the talismanic
watchwOrd Law and Order" mean to
} provoke this very crisis. When free
speech is stiiled, riots are certain to
en.ue. No matter how prudent and
peace-lOvinga man may be, when he is
driven into last corner to be chained
like a dog, he is likely to turn upon his
oppressor with deadly weapon in his
hand; and the first serious collision
between the opposing forces will have
more disastrous and widespread results
than the fall of Sumpter i'll 1861"
EThis is startling. We do not
know upon what Equity basis its
statement, but 1t is quite possible
that such a thing may happen
Cleveland and the goldbug ring have
ordered the officeholders to howl fol
the gold standard whether they want
to or not, and they are bowling. a

this character will not hesitate tt
attempt to make their opponent
keep their mouths shut.

which resulted in killing silver dead
during the last Congress. But he
now declares for free silver. And
when he talks he uses strong language.
We do not know what his motive is
for talking so strongly against the
position he assumed in the silver
fight, but he hit the nail on the head
when he described the "sound
money" (goldbug) convention recent.

dressed . large and enthusiastic
audience here tonight on the finan
cisl question. His speech was the
strongest ever heard in this city; the
people we're captivated BY the power
of his logic and orstory, but at the
close a ombshell was thrown in the
camp. One of the audience asked:
will you support the Democratic
ticket in case gold standard plat.
form is adopted at the next national
convention?'
Quiet fell on the great throng, Mr..
Bryan paused a moment and quoted
what Mr.. Whitney had said abou,
the party going to pieces in case a
silver platform was adopted. He
was pressed to answer the question
by everv administration man in the
house, and then declared:
81 was born aud raised Democrat;
| was nursed at Democratic moth.
er's breast and taught Democracy by
a Democratic father, but will never
vote against my principles"
He was reminded that he had not
answered the question. Five hun
dred men were on their feet yelling
at once. The crowd had been large
ly with Mr.. Bryan all along bat was
not prepared to endorse his answer.
He said: 81 am as certain the Dem.
ocratic convention will adopt q
double standard platform as 1 am
that am standing here. bus if it
does not, if the single gold standard
is adopted, l would die in my tracks
before | would vote the ticket"
The administration men, the 'sgold
bugs" as they are called here, went
wild with delight. They knew their
free silver friends acould net endorse
that sort of politics. Mr.. Bryan simply
spoke for himself. The Democrat
of Mississippi will cote the Democrat.

the pcatform may demand.
Yes. And the CAUCASIAN wants
to say right here and now tina,
North Carolina Democrats will dc
the very same thing. They may
''whereas" and "resolve" and "prom
ise" and do all that sort of thing
hut they will fool nobody but fool.

They Have no Craze-They are the Rest
People and Will stand Firm.
Hon. VIM. L. Peek, Of Georgia,
writing to western paper on the
political situation in his State, de-
clares the statement that Mr.. Crisp
or any other Democrat, with the pro-
fession of promise making and
promise breaking, could induce the
Populists of Georgia to return to the
fold of Democracy, so called, or the
fragments of his party wreck, is an
insult to the intelligence of the Popu-
lists. Mr.. Peek says:
Neither Mr.. Crisp, nor any member
of Congress from this State dare
meet the average Populist of Georgia
on the stump On the money question.
I want to say there is no Populist
craze in Georgia, but a we'll organ
lied party, steady, strong and with
vigorous growth. For years before
we planted the tree of Populism in
this State, the soil was dug deep,
fertilized with the love of country,
pulverized with equal rights to all
and special privileges to none; and
she is bringing forth good fruit. In
1892, four months after our organi.
zation, we numbered 10000 by the
count of the old party. We polled
then $1,000 fair and square. In 1894,
we numbered above 10000 by the
count of the old party. We polled
over 5000. Yet with all the in

holders, if Georgia had her rights
under a fair count, the Populists
would be holding tho reins of the
State to-day.
Say to the Popnlists of the west
that they can count on Georgia DO
ing her duty, for in this fight for in
dustrial freedom, we know no east
no west no north, no south, but one
common country.

ne washington correspondent OF
the News and Observer sends the
following letter which that paper
publishes with much prominence
and a pleasure we suppose:
SILVER SENTIMENT DYING OUT.
"Secretary Hoke Smith, who returned
upon the death of Secretary Gresham
from trip to Georgia, feels much en-
cOuraged by the evidences he discov-
cred in that State of the gradual subsi-
dence of the silver craze. Mr.. Smith
said to reporter: "There are men in
Georgia now defending the policy of
sound money who were talking silver
sixty days ago. 1 find men who are
working for salaries are beginning to
wonder how the free coinage of silver
could benefit them, andare discovering
that to reduce the purchasing power
of the dollar would be like reducing
their salaries.
my personal observation has been
limited to Georgia, but from the re-
ports received from other sections OF
| the country 1 judge that the same
thing is occurring elsewhere. do not
mean to say that there is not a strong
silver sentiment in Georgia, but 1 dc
not think any one will deny that the
cause of sound money has made greai
gains during the last two months.
| Mr.. Smith was asked whether the
Memphis convention had produced
any effect in the South. He replied
ats effect has been good, undoubtedly y
but many of the Southern people woul,
have been better pleased II the conven
tion had declared in favor of the repea
of the 10 per cent tax upon State banks
The South wants more money for loca
use and believes it can best be secured
through the State banks. 1 believ
that the repeal of this tax would elimi
nate the silver question from polite
J in the Southern States"
Those who are not familiar wit
the Topping, turn coat record of tn
News and Observer are no doub
puzzled to know how he can CLAIM
to be for FIRE, silver, and at the cam
time puff Hoke Smith as his gol
bug candidate for President.
