TWENTY MEN ARRESTED.
A Cuban Expedition Comes to Grief in
Wilmington, Delaware.

Wilmington, Delaware.
WILMINGTON, Del, Sept. 2. -Twenty
men were brought yesterday from
PENIS Grove, N. j., and lodged In Jail,
charged with violating the neutrality
laws in having organized hostile ex-
petition to Cuba. When overlooked
they had twenty-seven cases of arms,
a large quantity of ammunition, pro-
Visions clothing, etc. All this was
seized. None of the prisoners have
been permitted to make any statement
and it is not thought that they will be
until they are arraigned in court.
An expedition very similar to the
one which came to grief put to sea in
the tug Bertha about three weeks ago,
and it is understood its members were
safely landed in Cuba.

OF itself is not able to put up the

this his fight, and aid in every vav
conceivable.
The gallant reform press, of which
I am proud, as editor Of the Kentucky

help of every Populist paper in the

tributions, and by editorial comment.
in each issue, and by keeping our
fight before the people as much A
possible, the press can bring to our
aid two millions Of voters, to over
throw goldbuggery and corporate

A TIMELY QUESTION.

Mr.. w. j. Peele of the Raleigh
bar asks this question:
while Governor Jarvis is abusing
the Peoples party for the sins of the
fusion legislature, why does he not
abuse the Democratic party for the
more scarlet sins of Grover Cleveland
and Matt RansOm?"
The Caucasian. (Clinton, N.C.) 188?-1913, 1895-08-22

To The Voters Of North Caroliaa:
The Memphis conve u ton composed
Of representative men Of al parties
who oppose the schemes Of the single

lowing resolution:
one member from each State, be appointed
by the delegates thereof in this convention,
whose duty It shxll b to correspond with
the Representatives and advocates Of bimeeal-
ism and bimetallic societies in the different
sections OF the Union, and devise measures

That this committee shau have mower tn

the cause OF bimetallism can be advanced
thereby: Said committee SHALL have power

Therefore, now call for the organi

The scheme Of the single golt

First. To prevent any further coin

basis.
End. To have tho silver dollars al

Mr.. Henry's farewell letter is dig.

will provoke from the party press

that he left the party because hi

Such an explanation will, Of

the party; but the honest, intelli.
gent people of the State will wonder
why the charges made by Mr.. Henry
are not denied and why his reasons
for leaving the party are not attack

press preserved dark.brown, dense
silence on Mr.. Henry's letter to Mr..
Ransom, and the CAUCASIAN pre-
diets that, with reference to mak1no

"INsIDE THE PARTY" CRANks.

The CAUCASIAN readers will re-
member the great silver convention
which was held at Memphis in jane.
1t was attended by men Of all poll
teal faiths and was essentially a
meeting of people who favored the
free coinage Of silver in this country
without the consent or agreement of
any other country. One thousand
delegates were present.
AS is we'll known, it would have
been an easy thing to have passed,
in that convention, resolutions de-
claring for the advocacy and support
Of free silver without regard to
Political utilization. But there was
sumo opposition to this by such men
rs Senator Harris. Of Tennessee;
Senator Jones, Of Arkansas, and
Senator:Turpie, of Indiana. In fact
they Threatened to bolt the conven-
ton il such resolution should pass.
Then, to prevent . split in the silver
forces, the independent element con
tented themselves by permitting a
simple declaration in favor of silver,
and by arranging . plan for the Or
ganization OF all silver forces
throughout the country.
The men above named acted in
bad faith. As soon as the Mem
phis convention adjourned thew
went to q hotel and began a
plan to work up silver Gin
side the party" (Democratic.) Thew
issued call for . silver convention
of Democrats to confer and cooper
ate. They thought they could bring
together . great crowd, but only
eighty-fve people turned up on the
appointed day, August l4th. Then
the old schemers began to say that
the idea that this was to be q "m.ss-
meeting" was all wrong; that it was
only intended that q small number of
''leaders" should come together. IIf]
they could have called . thousand
people togetl pr - was the case at
Memphis, they would have done 40

BOSH! DUNGLING BOsH,
The Raleigh News and Observer
aavs in an od;for;.l.

The Raleigh News and Observer
says in an editorial:
"The many increases in wages in all
parts OF the country leave no room to
dOooc the wisdom of tariff reduction
ana the active prosperity of the times.
Mauui1cturers sometimes reduce
wages for political reasons, but they
only increase wages when prosperity
enables and compels them to do it,
Wnen such men as Carnegie and Pull
man put up wages it is because it is ia
their interest to put up wages"
There are very few people, if any,
who give the News and Observer
management credit for being moved
or guided by conviction of duty or
sense OF principle, though it had
been thought that the editor DOS
sessed q certain kind of shrewdness,
But it is charitable to call the above
bosh and silly twaddle. Carneeie
and Pullman, two high tariff robber
Republicans, raise wages because the
Democrats passed a low (?) tariff law.
1t proves that Carnegie and Pull
man are making more money and
that the people are making less
money under the Democratic than
under the Republican tariff. There
fore these high tariff robber barons
raise wages to help the high tariff
free raw materlal-gold bug Demo-
Gratis. They have raised wages for
political reasons.
Nothing Is greater help to the
manufacturer than to have free raw
materials. He gets protection and
the man who produces the raw ma
terials gets none. Under the Demo-
cratic plan of free raw materials. the
"tariff baron" can buy the raw ma
terials for less than ever, and there
fore can sell his manufactured Ar.
ticles for more profit than ever.
This il worse than McKinlyism. OF
course the manufacturer likes the
Democratic plan. OF course he
raises wages for political reasons"
to help the Democrats who have
helped him-of course the mann.

who else IL:

The people in the South and West
who are At work producing the raw
materials have not increased wages
they have been forced to reduce
wages for they are making less than
ever. The Democratic plan il very
unjust to the South and West The
CAUCASIAN is for free silver, more
money and for incidental protection
to raw materials equal to the Incl
dental protection which the manu-
fscturers reaps from q tariff for reve-
nue.. And We challenge any Demo-

tation for truth or correctness to say
that this is not just and right. This

BUGS.
The Georgia Democratic papers
are two to one for the single gold
standard. head what the Atlanta
Journal, the Macon Telegraph and
the Richmond Dispatch say. We clip
the following from the Dispatch:
"There need be no further dispute as
to how the papers of Georgia stand on
the question Of the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio of Is to l.
The Macon Telegraph gives replies
from IA newspapers in that State in
answer to the inquiry: "Does your
paper advocate the free, unlimited, and
Independent coinage Of silver at l6 to
u TO this question 55 papers answer
eyes," and 80 answer "nO."
The Atlanta journal comments as
follows:
Against the 80 sound money Demo-
cratic papers, we have arrayed for the
free and unlimited coinage of silver,
only 43 Democratic papers, Populist,
Independent, Farmers Alliance, l
Independent, and l Prohibitionist.
The Democratic papers opposed to the
free and unlimited coinage of silver
| W "OEC tHou V"O W OuC
the Democratic papers which favor it.
There are Is daily papers opposed to
free coinage, and only in favor of it."
So that question is settled.
1t will be noticed that every Popu-
list paper in the State is for the free,
unlimited and independent coinage
of silver. We clip again from the
Richmond Dispatch:
"Those free-silver Democrats who
found something encouraging in the
proceedings of the recent Griffin con-
ventiOn in Georgia will, no doubt, re-
| jOice over the unanimous adoption of
the following resolution by the Demo-
