The Days Demand.
DIR ]. G. HOLLAND.

God give us men! A time like this demands
Strong minds great hearts, true faith and
ready hands.
Men whom the lust of office does not kill:
Men whom the spoils Of Office cannot buy;
Men who possess opinions and will;
Men who have honor; men who will not
lie;
Men who can stand before demagogue
And damn his treacherous batteries with
out winking;
Tall men, sun-browned, who live above the
fog
In public duty and priv ate thinking.
For while the rabble with their thumb w orn
creeds,
Their large professions and their little deeds
Mingle in selfish strife, 10! Freedom weeps.
Wrong rules the land, and waiting Justice
sleeps.

Four Epochs in the History of Our
Republic.
BY B. O. FLOWER.

Four great epochs stand out in
bold relief since our fathers pro-
tested against foreign yoke. They
may be summed up as follows:
a. Tyranny Of a foreign power,
or taxation without representation
(2) The tyranny of the money
power, or the baleful influence OF
the United States National Bank in
American politics.
g. The conflict of nation half
slave and half free, or the slavery of
the African race.
a. The fierce battle of pluto
cracy intrenched by special privi-
leges against the wealth-creators OF
the nation, or the dep0tis1n OF &C.
quired wealth over the masses who
create wealth.
In the first conflict we find Eng
land and the "respectables," or the
"Tory Glass;" arrayed against the
people. John Hancock and Samuel
Adams were, in the eyes ofconserv-
atism and the upholders of injus-
tice cloaked in law, traitors and
criminals deserving DEATH. So also
we're Washington, Jefferson, and
Franklin, and the battle was fought
with fearful odds against the
patriots who fought for justice and
a larger life; the great power OF
England and her hired Hessians
were in the front, the Indians were
in the rear, while the country was
honeycomed with Tories at home.
Yet, armed with justice and COM
PEELED to accept serfdom or the
desperate alternative Of war, the

little band Of freemen conquered
the allied powers and the mercen-
aries who fought against them.
The second great epoch was the
struggle of the National Bank, or
monopoly in the circulating
medium. The bank had, octopus
like, extended it's tentacles around
Congress and the press. The hour
was crucial in the history Of the ma
ton. Republican institutions were
in peril, and in the supreme NOM
ent of need a man came forth,
man from the people, who could
not be bought, not even by the
great National Bank which con-
trOlled the treasure of our govern
ment The war between the sturdy
patriot and the money power was
almost as desperate as the struggle
now being waged by the wealth.
creators and the trusts, the monop-
oles and the gold magnates and
their minions today. In speaking
of this battle of giants, the scholar
ly ex-congress1nan, George Fred
Williams Of Massachusetts,, in re-
cent address uttered these pertinent
remarks:
"In 1882 there had been erected in
this country an enormous ana
overpowering influence in the
monetary force of the country
known as the United States Bank.
It handled all the treasure of the
government. It had the power OF
issuing notes, and in 1882 when An
drew Jackson was again to be
candidate for the presidency, the
president of that bank, the great
banking king of that day, the Pier
pont Morgan and the greatest BEL
mont patriot of 1882, Mr.. Nicholas
Biddle, went to President Jackson
and reminded him that he, Mr..
Biddle, had the power to defeat him
for reelection.
HE had given out that that bank
was watching over and caring tor
the interests of the people, the
finances of the country could not
survive, and he reminded Andrew
Iackson-and how familiar this pro-
ceeding is today-that his bank by
it's control of credits through the
a,,,,+,11 could control the business
men and regulate the nominations
of all the candidates in the coming
election, including the President
jackson is reported to have made
this answer to Mr.. Biddle, and

may be pardoned by a sensitive
public if use President Jackson's
exact words: If your bank can
make and unmake presidents, gov
errors, and congressman, that is a
ID sight too much power for
amy one man or institution to hold.
And if you bride congress to re-
charter your bank, I will veto the
new charter
"Then the fight was on. Then a
mighty power began to gather it's
forces just as it is gathering them
now. The newspaper press turned
against him and went for the
bank. But President Jackson had
something to say concerning the
newspapers at that time. On July
IL, during his canvass he wrote
these words concerning the press:
The fact that the bank controls
and in some cases substantially
owns, and by it's money supports
some of the leading presses of the
country is now clearly estab-
lished'"
The struggle was relentless. On
the one side was incipient pluto
cracy or new oligarchy of wealth
which controlled the press and to
large extent inti1nidated business
men, but the instincts of the peO-
pie were with the un1n0rtgaged
patriot. His triumphant election
marked the overthrow Of the bank,
with it's immense possibilities for
evil, as a monopoly of the medium
of exchange; and though the ex-
pertinent which followed was not
we'll matured and like many other
experiments in free government
could not be said to be satisfactory,
the defeat of the octopus, which
had already grown so powerful, ar
rogant and INSCRIPTIONS, saved
the republic from an evil more to
be dreaded than the sword of for
eign foe.
The third great epoch was the
elimination of longwaged
struggle of government half slave
and half FREE The north deserves
no particular credit for being free.
Indeed New England generally,
which in early days was most in
dustrous in slave catching and
trading, and at later day Boston
and New York, were swayed by
cupidity far more than conscience,
even though these cities had far
less direct interest in maintaining

Gov. Matthews. There was about 1900
people In attendance and Gov. Matthews
was given an ovation when he was intro

a gold democrat, but declared from the

Gov. Matthews said in part: 81 assure
you there Is no room for feeling OF regret,
discomfort or dissatisfaction. The plat

Speaking OF the character OF the con-
vention, he said. 1T was not a gathering
of anarchists, traitors, regulators. or
sectionalists, as our republican friends in
the frenzy Of fear proclaim, but a coming
together Of patriots, alarmed for the well
fare OF their country OF honest earnest
men animated by a great cause and Of
American citizens cherishing their rights
and liberties, determined to maintain
them. 1t Is this year supremely the peo-

NORTH CAROLINA FUSION.
Outcome of the RepubIican-POpu-
list POv-Woyv Uncertain.


Raleigh, N. c., July 1s.-The conference
here between Senators Butler and Prit-
chard and other leading populists and re-
pubicans did not end until l o'clock this
morning. All who attended were told not
to talk. 1t is learned that all favored
fusion on certain conditions. The repuo-
licans who attended declare that Senator
Butler is solidly against any Endorsement
of Bryan and that the great question is
how to check the Bryan movement in
North Carolina. Senator Butler is claimed
by these republicans to warmly favor fu-
sion, and they assert further that w 4.
Guthrie, who desires the pOpulist nomI-
nation for governor, is the only populisr
leader who now opposes fusion.
Senator Butler left here this morning
for st. Louis. He expressed great surprise
when a United Press reporter told him
that he was to be the temporary chair
man of the st. Louis convention He was
asked whether he intended to head the
anti-Bryan forces there. He was very
reticent, but replied: Il say every man
ought to wait until the convention meets,
and ought 10 stand by the action of his
convention. We must await develop
