BUTLER STUDYING
La II

Senator Marion Butler Is taking
course OF law III the summer law school
at Chapel Hill. He says that Democ-
racy is dead in the Western states, and
that he looks for fusion Of the silver
element in the Democratic, Republl-
can and Populist parties, and says the
platform will be for the abolition Of
national banks, free silver and a grad
uated income tax. He says also that
he cut loose from all the parties at the
silver convention in Memphis last
week, but did not try to reconcile that
with fusion.

MINISTER RANSOM.
(NeWs &. Observer 16th.)

(NeWs & Observer 16th.)
Hon. Matthew Whitaker Ransom,
Minister Plenipotentiary to Mexico,
reached Raleigh yesterday morning
from Lenoir, and spent the forenoon
at the Iaborough House. Many Of
his friends, who heard OF his arrival
called to pay their respects and were
gratified to note his improved condl-
ton. Il am better" said he, but not
we'll" When he left for Mexico, Gen.
Ransom was not well, never having
recovered from the tall he received at
his plantation last fall. In fact, he
has never been in his accustomed
health since his attack at Statesville in
the campaign Of 1892, but the fall
from the buggy in November, 1894,
had left its bad effects on his system.
He reached Mexico, therefore, in a
condition far from strong only to meet
the rariied air of that altitudlnous
country. From a normal beat of about
80 to the minute, his pulse went up to
100, which was followed by discomfort
which necessitated relief. This was
followed by bilious attack, and a gen
eral upsettlng of the system.
He looks much better than on his
arrival in North Carolina, and Will

PTRER VA TER.

The subject of pure drinking water
is growing upon the people of Eastern
Carolina. It is now we'll accepted
fact that malaria comes more through
drinking water than through atmos-
pheric conditions. And IN a low and
level country like Eastern Carolina it
stands to reason that many of the I'M
purltles that are cast out upon the
earth IN a thousand ways find their
way into the earth and are carried into
our wells and springs whence comes
our drinking water. These impurities
find Judgement in whatever streams Of
water they strike nearest the surface of
the earth. This makes 1t reasonable
to suppose that drinking water that
comes from wells only few feet below
the surface is not as pure as that which
comes from a greater depth.
1t has been clearly demonstrated in
many places IN low, fiat countries that
the use OF water from the Artesian or
overflow wells has been a means of
greatly improving the health of the
people. Where overflow wells cannot
be had, and they cannot be made sue
cessful in every locality, deep wells OF
other kinds ought to be used to I'M
prove the health of the people.
Eastern Carolina is greatly blessed
with natural advantages, and If il is
slow Of development it is because peo-
pie who live at distance have an idea
that it is not healthy section of the
State. Nothing could more quickly
remove such prejudice than the obtain
ing and constant using of good supplies
of pure water.
The DEMOCRAT is prepared to put
any one who SO wishes into commune
cation with firms who furnish the very
best machinery tor drilling all kinds of
wells.

rs RTY REALTY TO cor

1t begins to look like party fealty Is
to be disregarded in the great financial
foht that is ahead Of us. 1t is very
nlain to careful observer that even
within the ranks Of the Democratic
party there IS springing up bitterness
that heretofore has not been known
amongst loyal democrats.
Occasionally it is already said by a
believer in the gold standard that he
will not support a man for president IN
1896 who does not stand on gold
platform And quite as frequently Is
it said by the silver advocates OF 10 to |
that they will not support man who
is not in favor of the free coinage Of
silver. Does this look like party lines
are to be disregarded and party fealty
forgotten?
lit is right and consistent to take
this position as to presidential ticket,
is it not equally consistent to take the
same pOsitlOn as to congressional, State,
county and township tickets?
THE DEMOCRAT is OF the opinion that
II is much easier to make rash declara-
tjons now than it will be to stand to
them consistently year hence. II
the principles of the Democratic party
are right ard are the pillars OF the tenn
pie of Justice to all men alike, we
should not make declarations about
what we will not do under circumstan-
ces that do not happen to agree with
personal preferences. If, however, we
have reached such stage of national
development, or degeneracy, as the
case may be, that the principles Of Dem
ocracy are no longer adequate to the
demands of the people, then it may be
wise to lay aside these principles for
which we have stood so long and look
for principles more in keeping with
what the people actually need.
Do the true and tried friends OF the
old Democratic party feel like giving
up the ship Well, then, better have
less to say about personal likes and dis
likes and let the great Democratic pow
er of the country work out the plat
form Of principles by which we shall be
guided.
When it comes to a free political
fight, regardless of party lines, we shall
have reform, the simple index of which
was outlined in North Carolina by the
work of our last Legislature.
When THE DEMOCRAT no longer sees
excellence in Democracy it Will hardly
see it IN Repu blicanism and Populism

Charlotte Observer.

We all admire a man who has con
victions and the courage thereof. There
is, however, limit within which these
may be with propriety expressed. Thus
when we find Senator Tillman, of South
Carolina, declaring that his State would
not vote for Christ unless he stood on
the free silver platform, and that he
himself is read, to fight in front of the
gates of hell for free silver, we may adj
mire his zeal as much as we choose
but even the average free coiner must
feel in his heart that the language Of
the gentleman from South Carolina is
a trife too strong.

A Curious War Relic.

An interesting relic of the war of
the rebellion has just been received
from the south by Walter H. Durfee
of Providence, Rhode Island. 1t is
a 2O-foot section of live oak tree
which stood under fire at the battle
OF Chickamauga. The tree was fill
ed with shot, grape, cannon balls and
pieces of shell, and they are all EN-
bedded there today, more than thir-
ty-one years afterward
The tree evidently was hardy
enough to flourish and grow, not.
withstsnding its battlefield engage
ment, as some of the shot are almost
enclosed by new growth.
The tree was shipped to Mr.. Du-
free from Chattanooga by his moth
er, who is travelling in the south.
1t was brought into the town last
month by farmer who wanted to
sell if for frewood. Mr.. Durfee's
mother saw 1t and bought it, and had
it sent TO her son. It went to Nor
folk by rail, and thence to Providence
by the Baltimore line.
It is most remarkable curiosity.
and one which convinces a beholder

healthy locality. Several cannon

men have been brought to the hos
