two war vessels recently
bought at Genoa, while a con
tract has just been given for

THE VANCE DOVER SUIT.

Referring to a brief statement in re-
gard To the Vance dover suit that
recently appeared ia the News and Oh
server Hon. G. DoWd Of Charlotte,
who was a counsel for Mr.. Chas N.
Vance, furnishes the following in
formation:
There were two issues ia tire Vance
dover ease: l. Mrs. Vance claimed to
have the home lot Ia which the Vance
family once resided in this city, and
which is the only rennmeratiye prop
erty left by the Senator, laid off to her
as dover, alleging that il was the
usual place Of residence Of the de
ceased This issue was decided in
favor Of the heirs, the court deciding
that this was not the usual place Of
residence within the meaning Of the
statue, and therefore the widow was
not entitled to have this property
specifically assigned as dover. 2. The
defendants contended that a tract in
Buncombe known as the Bee Tree
place was paid for with money derived
from the sale Of their mothers prop
erty In AgheyiIle, and hence IN equity
they were the owners, and the widow
rot entitled 10 dover in that tract.
The junction contended for, to wit:
The payment Of the purchase price for
the Bee Tree place, with the proceeds
Of the sale Or the AsheYille lots be-
longing to the estate Of the first Mrs.
Vance, was proved on the trial beyond
doubt, and was finally admitted by
the demurrer Of the plaintiffs counsel.
ami also specially found as a fact by
Che presiding judge in a decree on file
in the ease. But his Honor held that
notwithstanding the fact, the widow
was entitled, as mother Of law, TO
dover in this tract because the deed
was made before the money was paid.
From this decision there is an appeal
to the Supreme court.
There was no intimation that Sena-
tor Vance had done anything wrong
III putting this fund into this tract Of
land The fund was partly his, as
tenant by the courtesy, and he told
his son ne thought it was best 10
put it in Croggy' as they would get
It all at his death anyway.
THE foregoing are the facts in the

Tic CAUCASIAN ON pRIToHARD.

senator Butler and the Caucasian
have burned their bridges behind
then-if their plain expressions can be
relied upon at all. The criticisms on
Senator Pritchard's letter, which has
already appeared in these columns, are
pointed and direct We make a few
quotations:
eve must regard the letter as an
illustration Of an oft-repeated axiom
that the partybug's friendship for
free silver is more dangerous than the
goldbug's enmity. 4 partybug has
been defined as one who prefers his
party to his principles, or one whose
principles consist in adhering to his
party right or wrong.
"A point we wish to emphasize is
this: The life and existence of the
Peoples Party is based on principle.
Its birth and organization are the
result of dallying and trifiing policy
with principle by the two old parties
ANY surrender of principle which
gave birth and which has thus far
sustained it would be a gross stultifica-
tion-would vitiate the reasons for it's
existence, and it could do no better
than to disband and 60 back into the
old parties against whose dallying and
trihing it has rebelled. This is our
answer to Senator Pritchard's sugges-
ton that an electoral ticket should be
chosen, the members of which might
vote for two candidates OF opposite
principles"
In regard to Senator Pritchard's
statement that North Carolina is a
Republican State and has been since
the war, the Caucasian says
I'VE shall take no issue with this
statement, but beg to observe that the
Senator's own confidence in it assumes
a weak aspect in consequence of the
term possible disaster used i'm the
paragraph above If what he says
about the Republican party be an
established fact there is no good
cause for anticipating possible disas-
ter for it in an open and independent
contest at the polls"
''The financial issue and not the
tariff is the great issue of the coming
campaign.
Let his party show what it regards
as wisdom concerning this matter
Why daily aud trife over a question
pressing for solution? The Populist
Senators viii sustain his party in the
Senate in restoring the functions OF
silver. 1t needs no assistance in the
HoUse. Never mind the White House
veto. Let his party's record be un-
questionable BY their works we shall
know them"
"sFhe money problem insignificant
and 'unimportant!n Then why in the
name of consistency and peace does the
Senator make that problem a barrier
to certain Democratic defeat? The
Peoples Party regards it as Of vital
import"
Let the people beware. Let them
remember that a compromise Of prin-
ciple for the sake of temporarily defeat
ing an antagonist is but an invitation
to the doom which overlook the Demo-
cratic party last election"

Say anything you please Of me-
said wise politician once to an editor,
"but do not make me appear ridicul-

that will make the people laugh at
me. for if you do my hopes are blasted.
F,yerytime any one of your readers sees
me- if walking with friend, he will

ter Herald.
"Of course, OF course. The Hon.
George Washington AIdridge IS not
seeking the place, but the place has
detectives out seeking the Hon. George
Washington Aldridge. Statesmen must
be pursued; they must not pursue. The
'Statesman's Manual Of Department,
Wade Mecum' and Complete Letter

force. That noble work is in the right

He is seooting all over the State trying
To avoid the implacable pursuing place.
One day he is incognito at the Fifth

himself in fraiI skiff, rocked by the
raging canal The situation is un-

being, and likes to look upon the face
of his fellows. Besides, he is eager to
scatter canal patronage with a smiling
hand But the seeking place tracks
him. and he may have to turn gypsy

Mr.. Aldridge no doubt wishes that
the Rochester Herald hadn't mention
