WHAT WEBSTER. SAYS

State Chairman Webster is not TAX
ing any stock in the Independent
Republican convention, and does not
see where it can do the Republicans of
the State, of either faction, any good
in the matter of the coming fight. He
endorses very heartily the scheme Of
the colored preachers to work through
their churches on uniform plan. The
situation on the Republican side of
the Carolina political house is now
getting about as much mixed up and
as interesting as that on the other side.
But no matter what comes, the months
of February and March are certainly
going to be very interesting.-State.

medical examination. The eldest
daughter eighteen Years old was exam

Henry Clews 4 Co., \. y, says
"The failure of Congress to give adj
ditionaI authority to the Government
to provide for the maintenance OF gold
payments is less serious matter than
common opinion has supposed it to be.
President Cleveland has ample power
without such legislation. lie has eX-
pressed himself as being determined TO
defeat the silver advocates whose efforts
are to force the Government to silver
basis. This he will do by ordering the
sale of bonds whenever it is necessary 10
provide the Treasury with gold to meet
the demands made 10y the holders OF
legal tender notes. This being the
President S ayowed position, and which
he can be relied upoa not to finch from,
it should he accepted rs broad basis of
confidence in the maintenance of gold
redemption of the Government demand
obligations.
"a technical objection is raised in
Congress to changing the phrase pay
able in COIN used in past issues Of
United States bonds, and substituting
therefor the words lin gold:' the ground
of objection being that the change would
involve a discriminate n against now
outstanding bonds. 1T isreasoned that
il the words Sin coin" have always
thus far been construed ms meaning gold
coin, that meaning must be regarded as
still in force, and therefore as still
sufficient to ensure confidence that the
proposed new issues would be paid Tin
gold. 7 AS it is important, in all such
negotiations, TO leave no possible room
for dispute as TO the terms of payment,
why might not all the purposes of the
Treasury he met by Congress passing an
Act authorizing an issue of certificates
of indebtedness, having five years torun,
at rate Of interest not 10 exceed 8 per
cent, the Act toproyide that they should
he sold only for gold, which would
necessitate Il contract to pay back gold
ut maturity. Such a security would
bring to the United States Treasury all
the gold needed at any time, without
conflicting with any outstanding obliga-
tons.

Although Mrs. Lease seems to have
retired from politics, she has not retir-
ed from political economy. Her book,
lust published, is called sThe Problem
of civilization Solved. 1t contains
mole ideas to the page than some books
have in their whole length. Lack of
IDEAS was never one of Mrs. Lease fail
ings. The reader will he inclined to
wonder where this woman, Kansas
farmers wife for many years, out on
the prairies; afar from school or library,
got all the information that is apparent
in her attempt TO solve the problem of
civilization. Whether she is right or
wrong in her deductions from the facts
OF history, the facts certainly have been
sought and marshaled abundantly be-
fore her readers. According to Mary
Elizabeth Leases lights, the problem of
civilization today is chiefly to find a way
of thinning out the wretched poor who
are crowded together in the great cities,
cheated out of light, dir, food, education
and everything that makes life worth
living, existing either as criminals OF
slaves.
The trouble with the civilized world,
the author says, is overpopulation in a
few great centers. Two-thirds of the
earth's people live on only one-eleventh
of its land acres. The total population
of the globe is about | 800, 600, 000 Bel
GUM has 600 persons to thesquare mile,
England 500, and even our own New
England states have 500.
At the same time in Africa, in Cen
trail and South America there are 16.-
100000 square miles of the most fertile,
favored land on the globe waiting for
the hand of man to cultivate it. The
climate is admirable in most of these re-
gions. In all of them it may be made
healthful by cultivation and drainage.
Thin out, thin out cries Mary Lease.
Send the suffering surplus population
of civilization to these favored chimes
and fertile lands, where life will be
happiness, and the poorest can by their
own reasonable effort easily enjoy every
hlqury mt eded by man. IN two words
tropical colonization is Mrs. Lease 5
solution for the problem of civilization
Besides this she would have the profits
derived from labor saving machinery
shared equally by the capitalist, the
workman no runs the machines and
the purchaser who consumes their pro-
duct.

On general principles it is a good
thing for the United States to do the
opposite of what European countries
want her to do. Just now the ropresen-
tatives of the moneyed interests of Eu-
rope want us to make huge gold loan
and borrow the gold from them at a good
American rate of interest. They are
sure we could get out of our present
financial difficulties by running about
half billion dollars further IN debt
gold debt at that, England would be
lutte happy if we should cali for this
great government loan.

The scholars looked up with eager
expectation written on their bright
young faces.
Reuben took hitch at the waist Of
bis trousers. His red hair stood up
through hole in the crown Of his old
hat. He grinped,an his mouth spread
out till it pushed his ears back a couple
of inches and even then it seemed to
need more room.

No, sir. But being young and hand

patches located at the later end Of Ru.

the ingenious youth's example.
He filled with snuff a certain portion
Of bis pantaloons.

Mr.. Flip applied the ruler with great
yigor.
The snuff flew out of Reubens panta-
looms in a cloud.
1t went right up into Mr.. Flp's

The said Flip suddedly suspended
operations, with the ruler poised in the

THE DEMOCRATIC REVOLT

The revolt N the democratic con
grassional majority against the dem
ocratic president can no longer be
concealed. and the open declaration
Of independence pronounced by Sen
atOr Vest. coupled with the contempt
which Senator Voorhees, expressed
for Mr.. Clevelan6's message, make
public a condition Of affairs which
must arouse the indignation Of every
citizen and which can but increase
the satisfaction that the control OF
congress Is 50 soon TO pass again into
the hands Of the republican party.
There Is. however, one must admit,
much cause for the congressional re-
volt against Cleveland. The heavy
hand the president has lain most op-
Dressively upon both houses and the
constant embarrassment 10 which
congress has been submitted by the
executive both at Washington and
before their constituents has passed
the point when il may be borne IN 81
Ience. Perhaps this alone would not
excuse congress in its revolt But
there Is more than this: Mr.. CIeve-
land is clearly in the wrong on the n
nanciaI question His suggested rem
edv is not a remedy at all. 1t Is not
even a paIliation. 1t is only an expe-
dent which can have but temporary
effect and which in the long run VIII
result disastrously for the country
The increase of revenues which MI
cleveland declares to be unnecessary
is really the only hope of the treasury
and if the president and congress can
not agree upon plan TO secure such
incraase there is small hope for re-
habiIitation of our finances
