to a reporter. Among them were three

who drank more of the toasts than they

the intellectual pyrotechnics had scared,
spluttered and gone out, two Of these in

their skill at cards, and both eloquentiy

Their friends, to humor them, and, es
it turned out, to have some fun with
them, suggested game to settle the con-

serve four cards to his opponent and him

Again the deck was added to without
discovery, and at last eight tens OF dia-
monds were placed on it. The dealer, who
had been growing more and more hopeless,
and whose eyes were blinking, rapidly
dealt the cards. His opponent and him
self skinned their hands over together.
The player opposite the deck rubbed bis
eyes and his forehead, heaved deep sigh
and laid his hand, face down, on the table.
The dealer gazed at his and seemed lost

The Pharmaceutical association of
North Carolina met at Morehead
City, July 10th and 18th.
The recent revenue act, putting a
tax on seeds and drugs elected quite
q discussion.
A committee or two was appointed
to thoroughly investigate this act
and was authorized by the associa-
tion to engage the services of an able
lawyer il it should be deemed neces-
sary.
The recent appointment of DR..
Carr, son Of Governor Carr, as phar-
macist ut the North Carolina insane
asylum, was denounced as an out
rageous act of discrimination again st
the profession. The association
thinks it to the best interest of the
inmates of all our State institutions
to have the medicines used at
them prepared by competent, regis
tered pharmacists.
The following resolution was
adopted:
WHEREAS, There are ffty-one
States and territories 10 the United
States having pharmacy laws to test
the qualifications of those desiring to
practice pharmacy, and
1.-THE two professions of pharmacy
and medicine have made such rapid
advancement in recent years as to
be regarded as distinct and separate
professions.
"Resolved, That this association
disapproves and respectfully protests
against the practice of filling the
pharmacy departments at our State
institutions with other than legally
qualified and competent pharmacists
and We believe it to be to the best
interests Of these institutions thai
such course be adopted.
THAT the secretary be instructed
to send a copy Of these resolutions t
the board of directors of the institu

bership to the North Carolina Phar
maceutical Association, but no
having received single recon
mendation, his application was re

MARYLAND FOLLOWS KENTUCKY.

The Populists Decide to Make the Fight
ON the financial Question Alone.
The POpulist State convention Of
Maryland met last Friday at Hyatts-
Vile. They endorsed the position
taken by the Peoples Party in Ken
lucky and passed the following reso-
lutiOns:
THE REVOLUTIONS.
Resolved, That in the opinion of
this convention it is not expedient to
form any organization outside the
Peoples Party; that we affirm the
principles of the Omaha platform and
define our position on the money ques-
ton as follows:
That we propose to fight the money
question to finish till our money sys-
TEN is based upon justice, and is in
this manner removed from the con-
tention of party politics.
That our idea of what constitutes,
a just money is as follows: That rs
the Federal government is the only
power capable of making real money
it shall assume the task of providing
the money supply.
That the stability of prices and the
prosperity of industrial operators de-
ponds upon regular and full supply
of genuine money.
That the right to issue substitute
money be the privilege Of no set of
men, but that lawful provision be
made for the issue of so much genuine
money as shall restore the normal
price level and maintain it when re-
stored with sole regard to the well
being of the American people who
stay at home and produce the wealth
of the nation by their labor.
That so long as it shall De the wish
or interest of the American people to
| make use of their store of precious
metals for money, silver and gold
shall be freely coined upon equal
terms, at a ratio of Is to l.
That the constitutional right of the
citizens to use silver and gold equally
as money, upon the ratio that has al.
ways prevailed is the natural and in
evitable beginning of monetary re-
form. We propose to begin our work
at the foundation, and put on the cap
| stone when we come to it.

being applied to Judge Whitaker:
mo doubt my son we all know
you like anything on Gods green

greatest proof was when you rob

dollars from me, your client, by de-
ception and false statements, and
then made an order paying out
twenty-five hundred and fifty dol
lars of my money at two O'Clock at

WILT DOI17

The Fayetteville Observer De,n) Predicts
That Mr.. Ransom Will be '.shelved.'
The Democratic State convention
of North Carolina. on August 8,
1894, declared for the free coinage
of silver, as provided for in the Chi
cago platform, the party law, by q
vote Of 1000 I've believe that was
he number) to 2. The Democratic
State executive Committee, on May
20, 1895, repeated this declaration
by vote of % to l. In poll of
the national committeeman of the
Democratic party made by the New
York World On June 9th, Absentee
Landlord Minister to Mexico Ran
som suppressed the voice of North
Carolina. In the Washington cor
respondence of the New Berne Joufn-
al of July 10th we find that he has
recovered voice sufficiently to say
that che is very much opposed to
the free coinage of silver"
And this is the public servant who
persists in holding on to the place Of
leadership of the North Carolius
democracy, though he has removed
his residence to a foreign country
and who has before him the record
of the votes, as given above, of the
constituency whose servant he is!
They do these things differently il
Kentucky. The Chairman of thu
Executive Committee there has JUS
requested Senator Blackburn to de
sist from speaking during the can
vass now in progress, as his views d.
not harmonic with the State plat
form recently adopted.
Well, we'll. The democracy O.
North Carolina will not always b.
| in chains. If General Ransom doe
not become sufficiently ashamed O
his course to resign his committee
manship, beforehand, the State con
vention will elect delegation to tn
national convention that will nam
q successor for him.

FREE SILVER AND P0PULISTs,

Senator Marion Butler Says the Future OF
His Party In Kentucky is Very Bright.
Washington Post.
Senator Marion Butler, of North
Carolina, made flying visit yester-
day to Washington, where he register
ed at the ShOreham. He is terse and
vigorous talker, and says he comes to
Washington to find out what his pO-
litical opponents are doing in the Old
North State. He can accomplish this
much more easily than by staying at
home. Senator Butler is firm advo-
cate of free silver, and came to this
city from Louisville, where he attend
ed the Peoples Party convention:
That body, he says, was composed of
representative men of Kentucky. AL
though the time was a little inOppOr-
tune because of the harvesting season,
the counties were very generally
represented.
"YOu can say for me-" he declared,
"that it has been claimed by number
of leading and most prominent Demo-
Gratis of kentucky, including Senator
Blackburn, that the majority Of the
voters of that State are in favor OF free
and unlimited coinage of silver at the
ratio of Is to l, without regard to in
ternational agreement. If that is true,
and / believe that it is, the prospects
of success for our ticket in Kentucky
is very good. No true silver man will
vote for the gold standard, and the
Democratic and Republican parties in
Kentucky have both declared in their
platforms for single gold standard
Therefore no true silver man in Ken
lucky can vote for the candidates on
either of these platforms"
Senator Butler speaks very favorably
of Mr.. Thomas Petit, the Peoples
Party candidate. He was formerly
reading clerk of the house of repre-
sentatives, and the leader in the con-
stitutional convention that recently
| met and voted a new constitution fol
Kentucky. In his stand on questions
of the constitution, Senator Butler
says Mr.. Petit has already been ap.
proved by 100000 of the voters of the
State of Kentucky.
As far as North Carolina polite:
is concerned Senator Butler says
there is nothing worthy of present
comment. He left for his home las
evening.

Of another mongrel legislature. What

yer compared to honest, intelligent

masses of the party may be for silver,
but their first allegiance 10 to Demo-
cratic State government. The people

lightenment will set that question right

Further than this, deponent would
