WHY 1T is.
The Gazette has the following:

The Gazette has the follOwing:
There was a time in history where
there was so much money as now. In
New York City alone. according to the
weekly bank statement telegraphed to
the Gazette last Saturday, the Ma
tiOnal Banks in that city held nearly
$20,0 600. 600 in excess of the legal re-
quirements, which is TWENTY-FIVE per
cent. The banks of Reno are full Of
money to loan on satisfactory security.
and that is the ease with nearly every
bank in the country.
The above is true, but the Gazette
does not know or discuss the cause.
If what the Gazette says is true.
why does the United States Govern
ment borrow money from abroad in
order to keep going. If these vast
sums Of money are locked up and
there is a money famine. it shows
that ordinary securities have depre-
ciated along with silver, and capital
lists fear a further decline. The
security that was considered gilt
edged in '73 wont 90 now.

Senator Jones interviewed.

Senator Jones of Nevada declared
in an interview at New York Tuesday
that the next Congress, so for as the
Senate was concerned, would be in
control of the Silver party and there
would be no tariff legislation. He
added: 1.-The cry is now protection
and free silver We will have both
or neither. [ am a sound and staunch
protectionist, but [ don't believe in a
partial application of the theory.
Colorado silver has as much right to
be protected as Pennsylvania coal.
1.-THE silver Senators will have the
balance of power in the upper house
Of the next Congress, and they will
hold up all tariff legislation unless it
is coupled with free silver legislation.
The recent conference of Eastern
manufacturers and silver Senators at
Washington indicates the way in
which the wind is blowing. The sill
yer people would rather see a man like
Governor Morton nominated and the
issue made at once. 1t is idle to dilly-
daily with this question any longer.
1t is another irrepres5ible conflict,
and must be fought to a finish sooner
or later, the sooner the better.
1.-THE Asiatic peril will only help to
bring manufacturers to their senses.
Times are not going to improve. mark
my words, nothing short OF free sill
yer, coupled with protection, will
bring peace and prosperity to our
borders. The silver question must
be settled sooner or later, for we will
block all tariff legislation for the next
ten years, il necessary"

THE Ex-OFFICIO JUSTICES.
The June Term Grand Jury Has
Seven Appointments to Make.

The June Term Grand Jury Has
Seven Appointments to Make.
1t is likely that the grand jury of the
superior court will take up on Monday
the appointment of notaries public and
ex-ofiicio justices of the peace for the
militia districts of Chatham county 1t
may be of interest to know who the diff
ferent candidates for these offices are.
The candidates for this Office in the First
district are l.. 3. Endres, the present in
cumbent, who has held the position for
years. G.. E. Bevens who was for several
years justice of the peace at Pooler in
the Eighth district, 2. l.. Constantine, and
G. p. II. Jones.
The only candidate in the Second dis
trict is Justice Warning Russell, Jr., who
has held the Office there for sixteen years,
and who has given as good If not better
satisfaction In that capacity than any
other eX-oficiO justice of the peace in the
county. Justice Russell is one of the offi-
clals acting In that capacity against whom
no objections have ever been raised. He
has held his Office through every political
change the county has experienced, and
no matter what factional differences have
arisen, there has nothing come up pollt-
cally or otherwise that has been to his
diseredit, and both factions take pleasure
In the Third district Justice w. H. Pat
terson was a few months ago reelected
TO serve for another four years. His dis
trict will not, therefore, be considered
in making the appointments this time.
Justice Patterson has held his Office for
a long term Of years, and has always
given the best of satisfaction in that ca
pacity.
In the Fourth district there are three
candidates for the position made vacant
by the death of Justice s. Elsinger They
are Messrs John Fitzgerald Maurice A
Buttimer and julius kaufman. All Of
these candidates have been busy of late
In securing Endorsements to present to
the grand jury, and it is said the race is
going to be quite q warmly cOntestad ona
In the Fifth district Justice A. J. =
Blois says he was elected last September to
serve for four years, and, therefore, that
he still has three years and six months
TO serve before his term expires. George
Brown, however, is a candidate against
him for the position there.
In tho Sixth district Justice w. II. Men
grand jury will do in this case is not
known as yet, but there are no candi-
dates against him.
Justice Mcleod King is the present in
grand juries have recommended that he
be not reappointed. The only antagonists
he has for reelection to the office are
G.. A. Miller and c. Duggar.
In the Eighth district Justice Van
r. Winklea, the present incumbent.
Is the only candidate. Justice
Winklea has made an able and cap
able official in this capacity and he Is
warmly Endorsed by many friends for
reelection.
This grand jury undoubtedly has a
hard task before it, as in several of the
districts there are several candidates. and
with the light before them it NAV he
hard matter to decide between them
The grand jury may make all of the an
to attend to the matter at a subse-
Quent meeting.
