johnson and the Farmer consult
their lawyer.
Farmer. Squire, we have come to
.:sk your advice about tie question oi
Tree coinage.
LAWYER. I am counsel for the
First National Bank of this town and
il is the only client have able to pay
tue a cent. I haven't collected dol
lar from any OF you farmers il two
years. Why should you come to me
f, 2 advice?
Farmer. The reason Why we
haven't paid you is not because we
are dishonest and don't wont to pay
our debts, but because money is So
scarce and we can't get the money.
We can't sell what we raise for
enough to pay our taxes and interest
on mortgages. You know that most OF
my neighbors have already been sold
out, and l have come to consult YOU
on that very matter-how we can get
more money, and ask you if the. Irce
coinage OF silver, such as we used 10
have when we had good times, would
not give US plenty of money?
Lawyer. That is all the trouble
with you farmers. You are all the
time trying to tawper with the cur
rency. Why don't you take the sd-
vice OF the bank as I do. Bankers
are engaged in the morey business
and they know ali about it. Free
coinage would give you plenty OF
money, but would it be good money?
Was the Confederate money good
money? They had plenty Of it. Were
the French assignats good money?

A large and enthusiastic meeting
was held in Charleston last Monday
night under the auspices Of the "a.
P. a. and the orator was President
W. J. H. Traynor. He denounced
Papai interference with our body poll
tic. He denounced trusts, combina-
tions, national banks, and what he
termed the late gold-bond steal and
charged Congress with being corrupt
etc, etc, and his speech was vocifer-
ously applauded. Had Ben Tillman
gone before the same people and
uttered the same sentiments he would
have been hissed.

AND PRESS EN-
TERT3INED.

Charleston may not be up-todate
on some things, but when it comes to
real genuine hospitality she is strict
ly;c it," Last week sa&t CITY eEt2r-
tanned thousands OF people and they
made everybody feel as much at
home as if they We're at : community
picnic The Veterans We're taken to
every thing and every where, aud
the newspaper men were made to
share and share alike with the Vets.
Every attention possible was given
the guests OF the city and We know
that it will have the effect of going
loEg way towards allaying whatever
preiudices exists between Charleston
and the country. Tie Young Men
Business League rendered . banquet
at the Charleston Hotel TO the mem-
bers Of. tus press and around that
festive board the siuuest OF feeling
was expressed iOr tie welfare cf the
''City by the Sea-" Tne league is

allze the TACT that Charleston Is only
one city III ihe State OF South. Caro-
INA, and that tuere are other cities

position to give. Charleston active
competition; this beiug tue, these
salsioie business men DO not propose
To DE kept IL u iulse position by
politicians ';Lo have been doing
nothing IN the past lew years but TO
keep up an irritation between the
country 'su:t the city; the result mas
been that Charleston was tie sufferer.
rne Young Mems Business League
have taken hold of this matter ana
froM the manner they received and
entertained the couusry-tolhs their
desire To Greats a better feeling MAS
one Of the most noticeable ard COM
mendsble fea.ures of the occasion,
aud we sincerely hope these efforts
will be crowned with success; but
to succeed, they will have to ''sit
down" Oh those who are responsible
for the present conditions and SO to
work to put Charleston in full control
OF her business, ,men. " lose Interests
are Identical with the people Of tie
country.
The cordial reception given tie
people from all over the State last
week was but small beginning of an
era OF good feeling and from bust
ness standpoint it showed to Char
lesion that it is to her interests to
offer the greatest inducements 70 the
countEy-iojks TO visit the city often.
The natural market for the people OF
tins State is Charleston and there is
no reason why all OF the produce
made in the State canncs 60 there,
and if the people of that city will
s4s;ain and back up the Young
Mems Business League, by sending
to the rear the moss-backs vino be-
lieve in keeping up the customs of
their ancestors and to the devil the
peskey Paradise Alley politicians
Charleston will take on new growth
which will be felt from the battery
to the Line street, and the country
cousins will look forward to the day
when they are to knock the mud FROM
their plow shoes and put on a store
shirt to take trip to and buy goods
in the metropolis Of South Carolina.

Senator Tillman has returned to his
post in Washington and when the

up again we think he will have some

it will bea battle of giants and the
other fellows had better hoist their

know exactly how it was. Now ]
know. When they complain because
they can't get money to pay taxes,
and that they cant get shoes for their
children and because their wives are
worn out and sick from doing hard
work they shake the confidence OF
the country. That is what is the
trouble. We must stop their COM
plants and teach them more econo.
my; that will cure them. There il
no way to stop the extravaganza OF
tue farmers but to keep money away
from them. If they get money the
first thing you know they will be buy
ing clothes for the children or some
thing for them to eat. Why, I be-
lieve this farmer here, our friend
would be bad enough if be had plen-
ty of money 10 buy dress FOR his
wife. Such things have to stop. 1t
ruins the country. Nothing shakes
confidence so much as for larmer
and his wife to have money enough
to buy clean clothes to go 10 church
with on Sunday.
Lawyer. You are a good and wise
man, and will tell the cashier OF our
bank when you 60 in there next time
to smile on you. OF course, I
wouldn't ask him to iosn you any
money, for that would make you ey-
travagant, but he ought to smile on
you, think. I think be owes you
a smile for your sound principles
I hope what have said viii make
an impression upon you. There is
one other thing I wanted TO tell you
about. These men who advocate She
free coinage Of silver, every one OF
them, is silver baron. You might
not think it, but there is not one in

about silver. He said that the sill
YER dollar and the silver certificate
were not redeemuble in gold; taa
the law made I'll The silver dollar:
that are coined independent to starc
alone as silver dollars just the sain'
as gold dollars, and that the silver
certificates were by law redeemablf
in tie silver dollars and not IL the
gold dollars, and that all the silver
dollars and all the silver certificate:
stood on silver coin and stood alone
or that, and squire, he read the
statutes, saying that very thing. Nov
did the statute lie, or are you trying
to hoodoo me?
Johnson. Mr. Cleveland says thai
silver dollars are not good money
and Le won't make the bondholders
lake them, and be wont make the
bankers take them, WHO want to gel
gold to ship to Europe, but he gives
them gold every time. He says they
are entitled to gold. He says i,
don't make any difference; because
our soldiers were paid in greenbacks
and silver and that everybody has tc
take silver except the bankers. If 6
man who wants to gamble in GOLD
and make money on it, or take the
gold out OF the country, be must
have gold and he will give him gold
at any cost. He has been selling
bonds, two or three hundred millions
OF them, to buy gold for this very
purpose. Don't you see that the
silve. dollar wouldn't pay off any
thing unless Mr. Cleveland would
buy gold for everybody who wanted
gold, except OF course the people oi
this country, I mean the common peo.
pie, t e bankers and spectators must
have gold or the honor of the country
will be destroyed. Hasn't he in
VOWED the country during his ad-
lninistra!ion with about three hun
dred millions Of debt to give gold to
gold gamblers Tor the sole purpose
of maintaining the honor of the
country?
Farmer. SO it is more honorable
to give bankers and exporters OF gold,
gold, than it is to give gold to the
people?
Lawyer. All the difference in the
world. You see the great bankers Of
