SHALL WE BE UNITED?

Ii the free silver element in
this country, particularly in
North Carolina, where the only
obstacle is a distinction without
a difference in names, fail to
unite, they will perpetrate a po-
litical crime for which they
themselves will suffer greatly,
while they will put upon their
posterity such wrong and op-
preston as will consign them to
infamy on the unfading pages
of truthful history.
It is as senseless and idiotic
for people of the same political
faith-seeing the same end
through the same medium of
relief, to seperate and so weaken
their forces that the common
enemy can and will gobble them
up as the beast of prey devours
his victims, as it wonld be in
