Under the head of Remarkable
Speeches" elsewhere in this issue will
be found letter containing signifi-
cant facts. The revolt in the old par
ties is increasing in proportions every
day. They are already splitting in
their State conventions. Open declar-

Recently Mr.. Moses Cone, who writes
under the nom de plume of merchant
wrote long article for the Charlotte
Observer, in which an effort seemed to
be made to class Jefferson and Jackson
as gOidbugs. This article seemed to
'Ughtily tickle the fancy Of the Obser-
Y E., and it accompanied the article
with All editorial blare Of trumpets.
Elsewhere in this issue we present an
article which will completely settle
the assumption of Merchant" and the
Observer in this matter. "Children
should not play with edged tools.'
Advocates of gOldbuggery should not
claim to be on the side of the people.

Speaking of ex-Congressman Hen

quotes the following from the Char

sound on the money question the
President would have given him some
thing good. Mr.. Henderson may vet
get first rate judicial appointment

And now they are at it again-these
Democratic papers. JnO. $. Hender-
son, the much Wanted and much
praised ex-COngressman from this
State has caused the row. A few days
ago he was sort of "straddlebug"
Democrat. Then both gOldbug and sill
yer Democratic papers praised him and
magnified him as a model Democrat.
Now he comes out and defends the
Cleveland administration and puts
himself on the side Of the gOldbugs.
The Democratic gOldbug papers there
fore renew their praise with fOurfOld
power while the Democratic silverites
are intimating that he is a "traitor."
renegade and not Democrat anyhow.
What beautiful row!

called :,H-aefit dollars when measured
by the dishonest yardstick of ShylOck
and the goldites. They are only 90

blighting, congesting, and paralyzing

5O-cent dollars when measured by the
cruel measure which makes cotton 5
cents a pound and doubles every debt

also clear that the States can make

that Senator Tillman represented the
Democrats Of the South. Whereupon
Senator Tillman, turning and facing
Senator Hill, and walking down the
aisle pointing his finger directly at
him, said: -,
cat least, sir, | represent on this
floor the people of South Carolina, and
can say to certainty what they will
do, and that is more than you can do
or say for your State. You do not rep
resent the people even of your own
State. You simply represent the bond
holders and bankers of Wall street."
Closing his speech, Senator Tillman
deliberately and in measured words
served notice on the gold Democrats
and on the country that if the mono
polistic and BODYBUILDING element
succeeded again in debaucfing the
party machinery and capturing the
Chicago convention, that he.and a
large number of Southern Democrats
who believed in the principles of true
Democracy, would walk out of the
convention and repudiate the party
that had betrayed the people for Brit.
ish gold.
This speech created no less of ar
impression than did the speech of Sen.
ator Teller two days before. 1t was
| listened to by crowded galleries and BY
every Senator on the floor, and at it,
close the galleries broke out in applaus.
| in spite of the strict rules of the Sen.
ate prohibiting the same.
These two speeches show the revolt
of the people against the two old golt
parties and speak eloquently for unior
of the people of the South and the Yves
at st. Louis on July 22d. 1t now Seems
that union, victory and relief are nov
| in sight for the DeODle.

This is the kind of fulsome praise
that a so-called free silver man gets
from the goldbug organs for betray-
ing his constituency and the cause
of the people into the hands of the
British Shylocks and their American
tory allies.

EMMA SQUARE.

1t is learned semi officially that
the necessary attentions to Emma
square have for some time past
bean awaiting a dull spell in the
Bureau OF Public Works. 1t is
intended one tomorrow" to have
the seats repaired, and their backs
will be trimmed sharp to prevent
big lubbers from sitting oa them,
rs this has been the chief cause of
broken backs. The decayed vege.
tation is removed periodically, but
it is hard to keep up with
the constant shedding of foliage.
As for maintaining a carpet of
grass, it is out of the question.
The square is so small and the
attendance at concerts so nu-
merous, that any keep off the
grass" edict would be sheer nom
sense. Commissioner Marsden is
not ueglecting the public squares
at all, but his powers are limited.

HAWAIIAN BANANAS.

Editor H. M. Whitney, in the
Planters Monthly for September,
speaks of the increased use of
fruits as daily food abroad, add
ing: ...
During recent visit to the
American coast,we noticed mark
ed improvement in the appearance
OF the bananas offered for sale in
the fruit stores. Those packed in
boxes'aregenerally opened in fresh
and unbruised condition, and as
the punches hung in the stores
the fruit seemed as fresh as though
it had been gathered only yester-
day. Vessels in the Jamaica fruit
trade are fitted with beams on
which the punches hsng,and usual
ly they are carried across the ocean
with very little chatting of the
fruit, which is deposited in cold
storage buildings until disposed
OF to the trade. Both dealers and
consumers give preference to
our Hawaiian Chinese bananas,
both for eating and keeping quail
tiles, over either the Central
American or West Indian varie-
ties, except when they cultivate
the same kind as ours. The supe-
riority Of the Hawaiian banana as
a table fruit is chiefly this: that
it has a finer taste, and, when
fully ripe, it can be safely eaten
by young and old alike; and even
for nursing children and bed rid
den invalids, it is not only harm
less, but the most nourishing fruit
that can be eaten. For invalids,
however, bananas in the form Of
-four is considered a still more
valuable food.

Attorney-Genera Smith stated
to BULLETIN reporter yesterday
morning that the popular impress
sion that all foreign diplomats,
consuls, etc, were exempt from
arrest was erroneous. 1t is only
foreign ministers and such of
their attaches whose names are
duly registered in the Foreign
Office as being connected with the
legation who come within the
exemption. International courte-
sy, Mr.. Smith added, usually ex-
tended the exemption to other
representatives where there was
no minister. He much regretted
the recent arrest, which he termed
a piece of gross carelessness, but
it was something of which the
Government would take no official
cognizance.

CONTAINING TWO STO-
RlES AND ONE
MORAL.

A New England Congress-
man recently sent one of his
constituents a package of flow
er seeds for the latter'S wife,
and received a genuine Yankee
acknowledgment. The latter
thanked the member for the
flower seeds so kindly sent,
including sweet peas and
other varieties of long, unpro-
nounceable, unintelligible, TO-
mantle names. We have plant
ed the Seeds" the letter con-
tinued, "and if they grow we
will use the names to train the
vines on"
In the same connection one
tells at the capitol of a visitor
to a committee = room who
found a Congressman's clerks
busily directing seed packages.
"What are you doing?" the
visitor asked.
Sending out garden Seeds"
was the answer.
Seeds p said the other.
"This late in the season you
ought to be sending out vege-
tables"
You may think it hard to
find the moral to the above
stories but we know better. 1t
is concealed in the oven of one
of our lately imported
MODEL ST. CLAIR WOOD
STOVES.
You buy the stove and we
throw in the moral. These
model St. Glars are truly
model" for they are perfect.
They have every convenience,
including spacious oven, and
in addition a commodious hot
water tank situated at the back
of the stove. A six-hole cook
ing surface is sufficient to do
the cooking of a large family
and these stoves are built for
that purpose. They are solid
and substantial, are tastefully
ornamented and sell for 5000.
Should you prefer a range
we can recommend the "Gol-
den Anvil as the best made.
These are built of steel through
out and burn either wood or
coal. We have them in two
sizes, $50 and $65.
You may need a handy Ian

them with glass oil containers
instead of tin. They are much

the old style and your fingers
won't smell of Kerosene after
handling them. They only cost

HoARDING Is DISCOURAGED
Banks do Not Let Gold 60 for boarding
PURPOSES

The banking institutions are endeav-
oririg 10 prevent as far as possible the
boarding OF gold. When any one cashes
a check and asks for gold, he is asked
why he desires gold; if his answer Is OF
a nature that indicates am intention 70
lay it away, the gold coin is wFrnheld.
Mr.. Q. H. Davidson. vice president Of
the Kansas National, said yesterday
that the object was TO prevent as Tar as
possible the boarding of the gold.
This said ne, lis what has caused
50 much stringeacy in the money mar
kets, and hence a stringency and
stagnation in business OF all kinds
There Is no objection whatever in the
gold going out of the banks, provided
it viii remain in circulation and not be
laid aside by some one to await the out
come Of the present political campaign.
The western banks have a larger per
centage Of gold upon the amount of
their deposits than the eastern banks
One bank UP in Kansas is said to have
about one-ttird Of their entire money m
gold
There VIII be hesitancy IN allc1w-
ing gold 10 become separated from the
markets until after the election, and
then things are expected TO ease up"
Mr.. Davidson said that the disruption
in money affairs had caused the troI5se
and that when the people were willing
TO allow the gold to stay in circulation
il would be as readily paid out as any
other money
