REEDS FINANCIAL SCHEME.
Plan on Which lie Is EndeavorIng to
Unite the Republican Strength.

thtte the Republican Strength.
NAsHISGToN. Feb. 5.-CalcuIatious
of the supporters and opponents of the
administration new financial bin were
upset Monday by the Intersection of a
new factor into the campaign. Mr.,
Reed. Of Maine, the republican leader.
brought forward plan for which he is
endeavUIng to enlist the entire
strength OF his party. and which he
will offer as substitute for the adj
ministration scheme if he thinks his
plan can command sufficient support
to make it a factor in fight.
There are but two sections to the
Reed plan in the form in which he has
submitted it to mis- colleagues. He first
proposes to restrict the law of 1878.
which authorizes the secretary of the
treasury to issue bonds to redeem the
greenbacks. 3 per cent. bonds.
The second section authorizes the
secretary of the treasury. when there
IS deficit. to issue certificates of in
debtedness to pay current expenses,
the certificates 10 be in sums of S25,
$50 and 500 and any multiples thereof,
bearing interest at 3 per cent and pay
able in coin
The bill, as Mr.. Reed explained to
the republicans, whose support he
sought, is but d temporary expedient
to tide over the present distress.
The substitution of coin, for
the gold provision of the adj
ministration plan Is expected to
win for it the liberation, if not
support. of the free-silver men, who
bitterly oppose all propositions to dis
criminate by stipulation in any bill in
favor of gold. Its comparative sim
pliefty, it is expected, will commend
the bill to the house in preference to
more complex plans

THE LUNENBUHG CENsURE OF THE
TIMES

We cannot believe that the resolutions
rassed by the few citizens of Lunonburg
County WHO we're at the courthouse on
Tuesday. condemning The Times for the
course Il has pursued in regard 20 tire
murder Of Mrs. Pollard, represents the
views of the conservative and thought
ful people of that county. 1t Is much
more probably the hasty and thouchtiess
action Of a few excited people who have
naturally been profoundly moved by the
horrible crime that was committed In
their midst. and who have not yet Gained
themselvCs sufficiently to understand that
the case should be patiently and inteili-
gently investigated in all its ramificatiors,
that the guilty parties may be punished
for the murder and that we should run
no risks of Furnishing persons who are in
nocent.
What IS there in the course The Times
has pursued in the case that can properly
call for the censure of any citizen OF
Lunenburg?
According TO the reports OF the trial
that were sent out TO the world. the ne
gro women Mary Alternately and 70
key Barnes were convicted upon the tes-
timony Of Solomon Marable. That IS TO
say, these reports made II evident That
there was not sufficient evidence 10 sus-
tain their conviction ii Marables testi-
mony was stricken out. and we under
siend now that that was the actual state
of the case when the trial was over. This
was very shocking thought to The
Times. and to nine humane people out
ha
should be Investigated further before
the sentence OF the court as 1t concerned
these women was carried out. In this
view 1t sent intelligent correspondents 10
Lunenburg county 10 look over the held,
make inquiries, and procure for 1t every
fact that bore upon the case and would
have any tendency 10 throw light upon
Il. The Times was in search OF the
facts-of the very right Of the case-in
the course II has pursued and it's work
will go a long way either towards fas-
tening their guilt upon the women II
they con- United the murder and thus cas-
ing the public mind from the horrible sus-
picion that now haunts 1t. or TO ferret
ing out the real criminal. II they are not
the guilty parties. and fastening his crime
upon him.
The Times has had no theory TO support
or individual to prosecute. The Times
has wanted 10 get at the real and bottom
facts. That has been its object. and IT'S
sole object and the people OF Lunenburg.
instead OF rcsenting its efforts in that
tehalf. should feel grateful to The Times
that II has expended its money and en-
ergies in an effort which all humane and
just people must commend. We believe
the good people OF Lunenburg viii think
differently about n is matter when their
excitement subsidies end they have nad
time 10 reflect upon II coolly.
