Chicago, oct. 20-Rey. Father Nugent,
OF Des Mmnes. addressed an enthusiastic

There was u te,ilpus delay OF an hour

speaker appeared on the stage TO relieve

given a reception which was wildly demon

Father Nusent saidhe had been induced To
study the money question from both sides

Hobart Club of Philadelphia, which stated
That there We're great moral questions IN
the campaign, which the clergy could not
afford To overlook" He believed the club
was right. and addressed the audience on
the theological phase Of these great moral
problems.
The universal hard times were caused by the
demonstration of silver, and that prosper
ity to all would only come with its remoneti-
Zation. Money was the first thing and
wages the last to consider. The confeder-

Honest money was in the man, and not in

II WILLIAMS, a leading druggist Of
I |. Frenctitown, N. j., is stopping at
the Raleigh.
Mr.. Williams says Tn at he is yoicing the
plaint OF the whole retail drug trade Of this
country when he says that there soon will
be no need OF 4 graduate of pharmacy In
the conducting of drug store. The prin-
cipal essential Of the Coming druggist viii
he the ability to draw Soda.
The first thing which mterfercd with
the regular business OF the drug stores,
that is. the compromising of prescriptions,
was the introduction OF patent medicines
AT first the whole of these We're Il few
registered recipes for the cure of simple
ailments, like coughs or colds. But the
number has steadily increased. until now
there is scarcely an Illness To Which flesh
is heir which has not anywhere from half
a dozen 10 half a hundred patent medicines
which are warranted TO cure il.
The next ana latest thing which is IN
deriDiIing the druggists prescription busi-
ness is TN practice of doctors, which, though
of very recent introduction, is rapidly be-
coming universal, OF carrying medicines
In The form of compressed tablets about
their persons.
Formerly, said the druggist, when doc
tor wished TO prescribe strychnine, for in
stance, he would write out his prescription
giving the proportion of the drug to sweet
ened water. and would give the directions
for king accordingly.
Now he leaves certain number OF these
compressed tablets containing the required
dose with the patient, telling him to dis
solve one in a ceriain quantity OF water at
the regular intervals and take it.
Thus The tablets extend through the whole
pharmacopaeia, and there have been es-
tatlished within the last six months whole
sale drug houses which do no other business
Than supply physicians with any prescrip-
tion which lie desires in the form OF tablets
easily solublein water.
These the physician carries about with
him in n case filled with phials.
When he diagnoses case he gives the
patient the tablets which he has prepared
for that particular disease.
Naturally the patient is glad to be saved
The trouble of Sending out for his medicine.
beside the assurance that there is no mis-
take made In the prescription. The doc
tor, on the other hand, can change his treat
inent ms often ms he desires, without the
kno wIe;l g,e OF his patient and. besides, makes
the druggists profits.
All things considered the druggist who
relies OF prescriptions TO pay his expenses
is in u bad way.

$50 whites out of 6i,3.i were competent
to register. These figures do not represent
the total of male adults of either race,
but Of twenty-five counties Only. and thos',
relating to population are taken from the
records of the CENSUS of 1880. It's safe,
however, to assume thai the proportion of
registration to population VIII hold good
throughout the State, and ii appears, there
fore. that while 90 Per cent of the whites
of voting age have bccn able to get on the
regist ration lists, only 10 per cent of
the oolored people have succeeded in Le-
ing registered. This, of course, practically
amounts to Il disfranchserncnt Of the col
ored population of South Carolina. How
that can be reconcilcd with uhat republican
form of government guaranteed by the Fed
eral Constitution some learned lawyer like
Mr.. Edmunds may be able to explain.
1t has all been brought about by aneduca-
tional qualification of the most unique
order. The new constitution requires not
only the payne mt of a poll or some other
tax as a prerequisite for registration aud
voting, but also demands that wouldbc
voters must be able to read any section
of the constitution submitted To them by
the registration officer. or understand and
explain it when read to them.'' The
extraordinary disproportion above pointed
out is explained upon the ground of the
illiteracy OF the colored people, and while
this is no doubt true To Il great extent, yet
it Will be readily appreciated that such
a test as uDdcrsta nding and explaining any
section OF the constitution comparatively
few of the voters of either race woulG be
able TO stand. But il the registration officer
is satisfied the applicant is enrolled. and

KNOCKING
DOWN
THE
PROPS.

Elaborate statistics have been ratified Off
and much breath wasted to prove the truth
of these assertions, and, 10 and behold,
how simple "A thing throws down this whole
house OF cards. In spite of all the booming
that has been and still is being done for
the white metal, it is quoted lower today
than ever before, and the dollar Of our
daddies' is not worth even 53 cents, but
only 10 and fraction. ON the other hand,
notwithstanding this decline, wheat has
gone up 10 cents IL bushcl within a few
weeks. The very simple explanation for THE
latter fact, as given by wcll-nformed per
sons, is that the wheat crop in India, Egypt.
Russia and other grain-producing countries
is abnormally small, and, therefore, the
United States is called upon to supply the
deficiency. The advance in price is a natu-
raj result.
1t not only the wheat crop Of the A meri-
can farmer that is thus favored, but corn
also, and adviccs from Baltimore are To the
effect that everything in the way os steam
and sailing vessels available for this DiIr-
pose has been chartered from now until
late in March. We should have to despair
OF the intelligence and Judgment of the
American farmer if facts SO plain that the
running man, even though he he a fool"
cannot fail to grasp and understand them,
should fail to convince him that the whole
cause of the silveritcs is built upon sand
and wind. The chief arguments upon
which the silver orators have relied to win
the farmers have failed them. Gold is
coming back in greater quantities than it
was sent away, and wheat is as steadily
going up in price as silver is going down.
Truly. the props are being knocked from
under the Bryantes.

not relisbing this sort
Of catechizing, refuse to make answer, u
run him in" Such in effect was Judge
kimball's ruling in two cases in the police
court yesterday. Is it possible that the
going and coming of a peaceabie, orderly.
well-behaved person are subject to the
scrutiny Of one or Il number Of policemen:
Judge Kimball declared that if he were out
at that time Of the night and met an officer
he should feel that the latter had not per-
formed his duty il he did not bid the Judge
E;lt and tell him all about his business. This
shows on the part of this distinguished ad-
minstratOr OF justice an Interpretation ef
the functions and the authority of a patrc.-
man TO which few people Will be ready to
subscribe.
Our policemen will probably he slow in
following Judge Kimball's directions. for if
theyare notthe are liable to trespass griev-
ously upon the rights of the citizen and incur
the risk of themselves becoming defend.
ants in criminal as well as civil suits.
Nothing can be more certain than that a
man has right to move about the streets
at any and all hours of the day or night
without being nolested by an officer of
the law; provided, Of course, that he is
orderly and by his action does not give
proper cause for suspicion. No enc win
question the right or the duty of a patrol
man to interfere where the latter is the
case. 1t should be remembered, more
over, that policemen do not receive their
instructions from any one save the chief,
and that Judge kimbalrs opinion or judg-
rnent of the scope of the duties is in no
wise binding upon them.
