Views on Silver Should not be Con-
sidered 50 UnaIterably Opposed to an
Independent Free Silver Ticket~-
The Republican Congressmeu.
Special 20 the News and Observer.
AsHEvILLE, N G, Oct. II.
II the course of his speech at Hender
sonyilIe to day, Senator Pritohard, speak
ing on the question diffusion, said: "a
great deal is being said in regard to the
policy the Republican party will pursue
in North Car0liua at the next election.
| am in favor of honorable CO operation
on the electoral ticket as well SIS on the
State and county tickets; that is favor
a division of the electoral ticket in such
a way as to secure the election of so
many Republican electors, pledged to
vote for the nominee of the Republican
party, and Of so many electors pledged TO
vote for the nominee of the Populist
party. In the selection of electors indi
vidual views in regard to silver or anV
other matter ght not to be considers d
81 am unalterably opposed to what is
known as an independent free silver
ticket While favor the free coinage
of silver, and shall work and vote for it
in Congress, at rhe same time | am not
in favor of abandoning our National
Republican organization in the State and
adopting any one specific issue.
"It is the patriotic duty of every loyal
Republican and Populist in North Caro-
lima TO see to it that the Democrats are
defeated ia this State at the next cleo
ton Should we fail to cooperate and
thereby give the Democrats the adVant
age of Us, the result will be the enact
ment Of election laws similar to those in
force ia South Carolina and Mississippi,
and it will be impossible for Republicans
or Populists in future to secure fair
treatment at the polls.
'With co operation from top to bottom
victory viii be easy, certain and over
wheiming. With cooperation on the
State ticket only, and three competing
electoral tickets in the field the result
would be doubtful, particularly on &C
count of the requirements Of the new
election Law, which requires that there
shall be only two ballots and that the
names of the electors and State officers
shall be on the same ballot This
fact will also cause more or less
confusion on each of the counties
where we have co operation and
in every Congressional district where
here is cooperation as well as On the
State ticket The adoption Of the policy
of some of our friends would simply
mean abandonment of those Republicans
who were elected to Congress at the last
election by means of co operation.
''It is fact that there was not.a single
Republican elected to Congress at the
last election without the aid of Populist
votes"

THE ARMENIAN MAssACREs.
Reports of the Recent Riots aud Butch
cries Have Been Confirmed.

CONsTANTINOPLE, Oct. 17-According
to the latest information received here
from Trebizond, Armenia, 400 persons
were killed during the recent rioting
there. The Grand Vizier Kiamil Pasha
has issued an order holding the Governor
of Trebizond responsible for all loss of
life hereafter through political or relig
ious disturbances.
The appeal of the Sultan to the Rus
sian Ambassador A. J. Denelidoff, to
cause the recall of the order for a Rus
sian gunboat to go to Trebiz md, has
proved futile. French and Russian
steamers are taking numbers of Arme
nian refugees from Trebizond. The re-
port of riot at Akhissar, in the Villatet
of Adm, on the AnatOlian Railway, dur
ing which fifty Armenians were killed on
October 8, market day, by Moslem
mob is confirmed. The Turks picked a
quarrel with the unarmed Armenians
and the former being armed with revol-
vers and knives, looted the market and
massacred the helpless Christians, after
wards throwing their bodies into the
wells. Twenty bodies have already been
recovered from the wells and have been
inferred in the presence of the Armenian
Bishop of Ismad.
Reports received here from various
districts of Auatolia say that the Armen-
ians have been deprived of their
weapons and that the latter have
been given to Mussulmans. In
addition, in the district of Kharput,
quantities Of arms have been distributed
TO the Turks. When the Vail of Khar
put was questioned on the subject he
said that if the Armenians remained
quiet no harm would come to them.
Izzet Effendi, the celebrated Turkish
lawyer, was arrested recently charged
with being the author of pacards in
favor Of Armenians, which were posted
Stamboul sometime previous to his being
taken into custody, has according to the
official announcement, died in the Yildiz
prison, where he was confined while
awaiting trial.
ATmenians Fined.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Oct. 17.-Some of
the Armenians who re-opened their
stores, thus disobeying the orders of the
Armenian Committee, have been fined
and three merchants, it is asserted, have
been compelled by threats to pay this
committee between 300 and 400 Turkish
pounds each. The matter was brought
to the attention of the Turkish autholi-
ties and, as a result, several members of
the Armenian Committee who took part
in forcing the Armenians to close their
stores have been arrested.

the same time have afforded our people
glimpses of the regular army drill in its

to the credit of the soldiers it is to be

Quoted themselves in manner that can
not fail to reflect honor upon the rank

Mr.. Morton, the gold bug secretary OF
agriculture, has become facetious. II
appears that exercising the American
privilege Of having an opinion, some OF
the employees in the department have eX-
pressed themselves as favorable to silver
or free coinage. The report is that in
| the exercise of an unWarrantcd stretch
of autocratir power, Mr.. Morton at the
recent semi-monthly payday ordered the
employees to be paid in silver coin and
then caused it to be tclegraphed through
out the land that he had done so in or
der to give them an object lesson. The
secretary may think this is Il good argu-
mcnt but it is not. Instead Of being an
"obicct lesson" that will initiate against
the silver cause it is an ''objcct lesson
of the contcmptlhlc measures to which
the administration can descend in or
der to annoy those who differ with it..
Under the rule Of all the departments
employees are paid in warrants on the
United States treasury. To crafty Il
petty spite this custom has been ig
norcd. 1t is poor rule that does not
work both ways. If silver men are to
he paid in silver. why does not the prince
Of goIdbugs, Mr. Cleveland, carry out
the same principle, and order that all
the government employees be paid in
gold coin: This would Of course depIcte
the reserve and demonstrate the scarcity
Of the yellow metal. 1t will not do to
say that notes are rcdccmablc in gold: 50
they are in silver if any one wants the
metal. The notes are used for cOnvcn-
fence in commercial transactions and as
men cannot get gold they ought not to
be compelled to take large amounts of
silver. If they desire to play even they
can get treasury notes for the silver and
then demand gold for notes. Mr.. Nor
toms "obicct lesson is as paIpablc "a
fraud as is Mr.. Morton.

The discovery that the Russian thistle
has made its appearance in Great Falls
is a matter for serious alarm on the part
of the agriculturists Of this section, The
weed ls pest of alarming proportions
and active and concerted efforts should
be made to get rid of it before it gains a
fOothold. IT taken in time its spread
can be checked, and it will be the part
of wisdom to tackle and stamp it out
while it can be done without great ex-
pense or labor.
