disarmed, and in the possession of a
determined officer, and while it was
safe for any person to approach them,
a representative Of the sherif's office
served on them the warrants for their
arrest for stealing cattle. We are
pleased to give him credit for doing
this.
The above recnrd, to which more
might be added, il necessary, shows
that the resolution passed by the re-.
publican county convention was, to a
certain degree, justified.
Some months since the LIBERAL
came across some OF the work of the
much Wanted "bulldog Of the county
treasury" the democratic candidate
for reelection to the office Of probate
clerk which goes to show that be is
not the friend Of the laboring mar 4"
he is claimed to be and, in fact, is a
person whom 1t will be well TO keep
an eye on. 1t will be remembered that
for a couple of years congress provided
that it was not necessary for a miner
to do his assessment work to keep his
title to a mining property, but lnsisted
that he must file a document in the
Office Of the recorder declaring his in
tention of continuing work on the
property. A great many miners took
advantage of this law and nled with
the recorder a notice of their inten-
tion of continuing work on their mines.
For making this filing the recorder
a in the habit of charging the min
ers one dollar. The writer has never
figured it out to see if this charge was
a proper one. IL "A man could get out
of doing a hundred dollars worth Of
work for a dollar he was at liberty to
do so. One day a miner came to the
writer and asked him to make out the
proper notice for filing. 1t was done,
and as the miner owned several pros
poets they were all included in one no.
tice. The notice was forwarded to
the county clerk along with a dollar,
the customary fee. In due course Of
time the paper came back with a note
from the recorder saying that the fee
was one dollar for each prospect and
would the miner please pungle the
balance due. The letter was i'm
mediately brought in and Il tale of wee
poured into the writer's ear. The mat
ter was looked up, the statutes con-
suited, and it was found that enough
money had not been sent by some
three bits, and that the recorder had
tried to o%vercharge the miner by some
dollars. A letter enclosing the amount
due was forwarded to the recorder,
and his attention was ORA Wn to the
law which provides the limit that he
can charge for recording papers, aud
showed him that he had tried TO over
reach that limit. How many other
poor miners the recorder succeeded in
buncoing is not known.

CANDIDATE CYRUS WATSON.

The Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor in this State tries to smooth over
his connection with the repeal of the
Alliance charter by the Legislature of
1898, of which he was a member. No
matter what excuse he may now make
he Yves one of the gang who helped to
do that most diabolical piece Of work.
The Do was worked up e2cretly and
put through the lower House in less
than five minutes. We have been told
that a few Democratic members voted
against the repee!, or at least did not
vote in favor Of it, but Mr.. Watson
was never counted with that number.
The legislature was overwhelmingly
Democratic, and when the bill was
presented it went through with a
whoop. No one was allowed to discuss
the bill. There were less than a dozen
Populist members of the legislature
and every one of them were Alliance
men, but when they tried to be heard
IN opposition to the bill they were not
recognized by the Speaker and the
bill was rushed through without the
fOrmality of the second and third read
ings, and Mr.. Watson helped to do the
rushing. No true Allianceman, no man
who loves justice and fair play can
ever vote for Cyrus Watson or any
other member of the Infamous legisIa
ture of 1898 who took part in or con,
sented to the passing of that scandal
Gus, that outrage 0us repeal bill.

ON BRYAN.

The New York World asks what I
think Of MI. Bryan personally.
As I have stated in my paper when I
had no thought of being connected
with him in a political campaign, Mr..
Bryan is a man of unblemished charac
ter and brilliant ability. We served
together in the ~Fitty-second Congress
voted together on nearly every ques-
ton and were personal friends.
When my contested election came
up in the Fifty-third Congress and Mr..
Outh waite of Ohio made the motion to
eject me at once and without a hear
ing, Mr.. Bryan was one the three
Democrats who had the nerve to vote
against it.-Thomas E. Watson.

MORE TRADING.

On the 2Ist the Central Committees
of the Democratic, Peoples and Silver
parties met in this city to effect an ar
rangement to insure the electoral vote
of this State for Bryan, which had been
discussed for some time. Elsewhere
we publish the agreement signed by
the chairmen of the respective com
mittees.
So far as the division of electors is
concerned there is no fault to find. Had
the Democratic National Convention
made as wise a nomination for the
Vice Presidency as it did for the Presi-
dency, we could say amen to this
division of electors. In fact, we care
nothing about the electors. The nomi
nees to be voted for are everything.
So far as we are concerned, the electors
may all be Democrats, Republicans,
Peoples party or Silver party electors.
We are only interested in the nominees.
II this electoral combination g the
election Of Sewall in the final roundup
no honest refOrmer is under any obi
cations to vote for it. If wisdom finally
prevails, and a good man is substituted
for Sewall, we care not who he is, then
no good citizen will hesitate in choosing
between this electoral ticket and the
Mckinley Hanna ticket. We will wait
patiently to see if wisdom, patriotism
and justice shall prevail, and advise
our friends to do the same. We are
into this muddle and the sensible way
is to get out of it as decently as we
CAP. If a decent venue is opened W,
all right, if not, then we shall exercise
American citizenship and wash our
hands of the whole outfit, and begin
this fight for reform all over again, and
in q sensible way.

A COINCIDENCE,
qulrer.

The death Of VIM. Mckinley at Port
land, Oregon, the other day, brought
to light a strange coincidence. The
deceased was a second cousin of the
Republican Presidential nominee, and
was laid out and prepared for burial by
VIM. j. Bryan, a second cousin of the
Democratic Presidential nominee.
They were neighbors .-Clipper, Hutch

If the above is true, it is, indeed, a
strange coincidence. And another
strange coincidence will be that in
November another VIM. Mckinley
will be 'laid out" by one VIM. J.

PREACHERS AND PLUTocRACY

1t will be remembered that DR.. Cyrus
Thompson raised a fog some months
ago when he declared in a public speech
that the church of earth, not of Christ,
is on the side of human slavery. Wi
liam J. Bryan is beginning to suspect
the same thing; in fact only the blind
and deaf can be longer mistaken on
this point.
But as the Newsand Observer jumped
upon DR.. Thompson with 80 much
force, it was natural to expect that
National Committeeman Daniels
would put a stop to Billy Bryan's in,
cendiary" utterarces. Billy talked
straight from the shoulder when he
was in North Carolina, and, though
Josephus is still with him, he has talked
right on through, Virginia, the District
of Columbia, Maryland, Pennsylvania
and Delaware. At Wilmington, Della
ware, Mr.. Bryan said:
you know that it is very hard for a
person toappreciate another's condition
if he has never been in it Have you
ever noticed how much more painful q
boil was if it vas On you instead of on
somebody else7 Laughter. b.
You take a lar whose property is
invested in dollars and whose dollars
are in government bonds. Can he ap-
preciate the condition of the farmer,
who finds that his pri es are falling
and his debts more difficult to pay
Can he appreciate the condition of the
farmer when he finds that instead of
sending his child to college he must
keep him home to help keep the wolf
from the door3 Can you make that
man appreciate what it means9
IF a man be out of work, with his
wife waiting for him to come home,
fearing that he will have nothing to
eat, can he appreciate thatG The con
ditions of life are becoming harder and
harder for the masses of the people.
"You will find in our cities preachers
of the Gospel enjoying every luxury
themselves who are Indifferent to the

5000 IN GOLD.

A reference to the Annual Reports
OF the Banks of North Carolina, 18th
July, 1896, al compiled by Mr.. J. W.
Denmark in our last issue, shows 90
banks in North Carolina, with assets
aggregating $19, 497, 273 II. Of this
sum 5000 was IN gold. Ali the banks
in North Carolina hold 5000 in gold
coin, and yet the gold standard mar

and they can'G understand why every
one is not as well off as themselves.
When I have seen preachers of the
Gospel using even more bitter speech
than politicians against the clamorings
of the people, I have wondered where
they got the religion that they preached.
my friends, the common people
we're never aided in their struggle by
those who we're so far beyond them
that they could not feel their needs and
sympathize with their interests. They
have had to lift themselves up, and if
the common people don't come to the
rescue of the government the work will
become harder and harder, my friends,
and every time you complain you will
be met with abuse.
Now, we can only conclude that
Joeephus hasn't got Billy we'll in hand
yet, and that he will subdue him before
the tour ends. Josephus wouldn't let
DR.. Thompson tell the truth about the
gentlemen who claim to be doing the
Lords work, and, to be consistent, he
ought to close the mouth of the future
President.

H RIGHT STAND.

Inc AG160Gb SO6oJ OOWW
comes out in an able editorial in favor
of the withdrawal of SeWall and the
substitution of Hon. Tom Watson In
his place on the Democratic ticket. The
Commercial says:
THE next campaign will be conduct
ed on the basis of patriotism against
money-soul against gold.
1t will be Bryan and Watson
against Mckinley and Hobart.
mi. Sewall will decline. He will be
obliged to decline in answer to the de-
mand of the people. He cannot be re-
garded as a true friend to the silver
movement if he fails to decline.
I'm the Chicago convention the
heart of the people was dominant when
the Democrats nominated Bryan. The
convention was drunk with enthusiasm
or something else when it presented
SeWall for second place.
"At st. Louis the heart of the people
dominated the entire convention in it's
selection of a Presidential ticket.
Bryan and Watson both sprang.
from the hearts of the people, and to-
gether they will electrify the nation
with their oratoricRI fervor, and we
hazard nothing when we say that Ne
braska will have no advantage over
Georgia in forensic display.
Mr.. Sewall must decline. The sue
cess Of silver demands it. The i'm
poverishment of the people cries III
aloud for it. Watson is in sympathy
with every demand made at Chicago;
Sewall is not. Let us play honest with
the people. The idea of nominating a
national bank president on a platform
that repudiates the national banking
system is inconsist9 nt with every re-
quirement of common honesty.
Watson is in accord with every
principle of justice and right. He says
SO, and he meane what he says, for he
is a patriot, who breathts with the 1e-
SEPARATION of the toiling masses.
In Nebraska there are more Popu-
lists than DemOcrats-less of either
than Republicans. The same condition
exists in Kansas and other Western
States without Populistic aid. Every
sane man knows that, without fusion,
Democracy and Silver are doomed to
everlasting defeat in Tennessee and
North Carolina.
why not combine? Why not make
u wish good by proving our wishes
by our Work9
This a only be done on the basis of
fairness. 1t will not do for the Demo
Gratis to eat apple dumping while they
give crow pie 10 the PopUlists. The
Commercial does not favor such cour-
tesy. 1t believes in that whole gouled
Southern and Western hospitality
which recogniz IS that there is nothing
too good for the invited guest.
I'VE wouldn't give Tom Watson for
the whole State of Maine-for there is
no more chance of electing a Democrat
ic candidate in Maine than there is for
the Democracy of the union taking
wings and flying in a solid body to
heaven.
Give us Bryan and Watson. That
makes the issue square and will save
the people from financial enslave-
ment."
